Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 209
Chapter 209: Show
“Comrade Li, this is your wife’s test result. We have confirmed that your wife has leukemia, and she is already in the third stage. Her condition is not optimistic. Due to malnutrition, her body is very weak. Even if we administer the best medicine, it can only improve her condition slightly. As for treatment, we recommend that the patient undergo radiation therapy.” Professor Zhang said solemnly.
“Although this therapy is effective against cancer cells, it also has side effects and is not cheap. You should discuss this with the patient and your family first. We will wait for your decision,” he added.
Li Chenxuan was stunned when he heard Professor Zhang’s words. He thought Jiao Siyu just had a fever or a cold. Why does her illness sound so serious? He had no idea what the doctor was saying at all.
“Comrade Li, are you alright?” Professor Zhang looked at Li Chenxuan’s stunned expression and asked.
After a while, Li Chenxuan came to his senses, took the test results, and said, “I’m fine. Thank you, doctor.”
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the office as if nothing had happened. Professor Zhang looked at his back and frowned.
As a doctor, he has met countless families of cancer patients. Most of them showed shock, fear, and worry, and even cried on the spot. This was the first time he had seen someone so calm after learning about his wife’s illness.
While he was suspicious of Li Chenxuan, he could only suggest treatment plans to patients and their families. As for what they decided and did, he had no right to interfere.
Back to Li Chenxuan, after leaving Professor Zhang’s office, he did not return to Jiao Siyu’s ward but walked to the cafeteria. He sat down on an empty chair near the corner and looked at the test report calmly.
After a long moment, he suddenly let out a low laugh and then burst into uncontrollable laughter. He laughed for a while until the nurse gave him a frowning look before he stopped.
When he finally calmed down, he said with a proud smile, “Even the Heavens helped me. Jiao Siyu, ah, Jiao Siyu, you have trampled on my dignity for so many years, and finally, this day has come. I don’t even have to think of ways to get rid of you, you will die of illness.”
“Hehehe, it would be better if you could die quickly so as not to delay my matter with Yanyan.” He added ruthlessly.
Li Chenxuan sat for nearly an hour in the cafeteria before finally standing up and walking towards Jiao Siyu’s ward. The moment he opened the door, his happy and pleased expression instantly disappeared, turning into a face full of shock and disbelief.
When Jiao Siyu woke up, she found that she was alone in the hospital ward. Before she could call someone, the door was pushed open and her husband walked in as if he had lost his soul.
“Husband?” She called him hoarsely with confusion.
Li Chenxuan raised his head and looked at her with red eyes. Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and he strode to her side. He hugged her and said in a hoarse voice, “Wife, I’m sorry!”
Jiao Siyu was startled by her husband’s sudden outburst and could only lie there in a daze.
Before she could ask anything, Li Chenxuan said, “Wife, what should we do? You are so sick and we have no money to treat you.”
When Jiao Siyu heard what he said, she was stunned and asked tremblingly, “Husband, what do you mean by this? Who is sick? I’m fine, I don’t feel uncomfortable at all.”
A cold light flashed in Li Chenxuan’s eyes for a moment, before he regained his composure. He looked at her, took out the test report, and said, “Wife, this is your test report. You have leukemia, which is a very dangerous disease. You won’t live for long.”
When Jiao Siyu heard his words, her mind went blank. She even forgot to blink or even breathe. No one can calmly accept the news that they are going to die.
Li Chenxuan saw her looking at him without saying anything. He shook her shoulders and said, “Wife, please say something. Please don’t scare me.”
Jiao Siyu felt dizzy and nauseous due to the shaking. Before she could say anything, she fainted again from shock. Seeing her suddenly fainting, Li Chenxuan looked at her coldly. Instead of calling a nurse or doctor, he helped her lie down and covered her body with a hospital blanket.
He stood up, wiped his tears, and smiled. After that, he left the ward and went to find Jiao Siyu’s mother. Since she is her daughter, she should take care of her.
Not long after he left the hospital, the nurse entered the ward and was shocked to see Jiao Siyu having a seizure. She quickly pressed the button on the hospital bed and performed first aid measures. While doctors and nurses were trying their best to rescue Jiao Siyu, Li Chenxuan was walking towards Jiao’s house.
When he arrived at the community, Mother Jiao was sitting on a bench in front of the community chatting with her neighbors. The moment she saw him, her face darkened and the smile disappeared from her face.
She looked at Li Chenxuan coldly and asked, “What are you doing here?”
“Mother-in-law, I came here to talk to you about Siyu’s condition.” Li Chenxuan said with a hint of distress.
When the neighbors heard Jiao Siyu’s name, their eyes lit up and their ears perked up. Mother Jiao saw that they were keen on gossip, and her face became even more gloomy. She stood up, looked at her neighbors, and said, “Everyone, I still have things to take care of, so I’ll take my leave now. Let’s talk some other time.”
After saying that, she glanced at Li Chenxuan and said, “Come with me.”
