Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 613

Chapter 613: PTSD
Although she noticed everyone’s gazes on her, Li Shu didn’t want to pay attention to them. At this moment, her mind was filled with many questions, making her feel confused and uneasy.

She closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep while thinking, ‘What was going on actually? Shouldn’t I die already? How can I come back alive and return to my younger self? Is this life a dream, or is my previous life a dream?’

At the same time, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu were asking about Han Liling’s information at the nurse station.

Lu Jueyu stood in front of the counter, smiled at the nurse and asked, “Hello, comrade. Could you please tell me the ward number of patient Han Liling? My husband and I are her neighbors and we want to visit her.”

The nurse listened to her words, nodded and said, “Comrade, please wait a moment.”

Five minutes later, the nurse stood up from the chair and said, “Comrade, the patient’s situation is special. You need the permission of the attending doctor to visit.”

Thinking that she might be seriously injured, Lu Jueyu nodded and asked, “Comrade, can you tell us who the attending doctor of the patient is?”

“The patient’s attending doctor is Doctor Yu. His office is on the second floor.”

“Thank you, comrade.” Lu Jueyu said and went up to the second floor with her husband.

When they arrived at Doctor Yu’s office, they saw him walking out of the office.

Seeing them, he was surprised and said, “Brother Li, sister-in-law, why did you come to the hospital today? Does your leg hurt again?”

“No, my leg is healed now. We came to visit Han Liling, but the nurse told us that we need your permission to visit her. Is her condition very bad?” Li Chenmo asked.

After listening to his words, Doctor Yu nodded and said, “Brother Li, sister-in-law, I am on my way to her ward. Please come with me.”

Hearing his serious tone, Lu Jueyu frowned and asked, “Doctor Yu, can you tell us her condition?”

Thinking of Han Liling’s condition, Doctor Yu said, “Sister-in-law, Han Liling’s recovery is good, but she still needs to take three months of medicine and at least one year of treatment before she fully recovers. If she does not receive treatment, she will lose her left leg and will be cripple for the rest of her life and require crutches for walking.”

“But it wasn’t her physical condition that worried me, it was her mental health. I already contacted and consulted a pediatric psychologist. Based on her condition, the patient was most likely suffering from post-traumatic disorder. At this time, she also suffers from traumatic mutism,” he added with a sigh.

Hearing his explanation, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo were stunned. They never imagined that the leg injury would affect Han Liling’s mental health.

“Doctor, is there any way to help her recover?” Lu Jueyu asked.

“Right now, we can’t be sure until we do more tests and wait for the pediatric psychologist’s assessment,” Doctor Yu said.

Thinking of Han Liling’s reaction to her parents, Doctor Yu asked, “Brother Li, sister-in-law, do you know how the relationship between the patient and her parents is like?”

“Why do you suddenly ask this?” Li Chenmo asked.

“Yesterday, when her mother came to care for her, the patient showed an extreme reaction. When she saw her mother, she vomited and had several panic attacks thereafter. In order to stabilize her condition, I could only forbid anyone to visit her until we know more about her condition,” Doctor Yu explained.

Thinking of the intimate behavior he saw between Han Yuheng and Sheng Xiaohong that day, Li Chenmo had a guess in his mind. But he had no evidence, so he couldn’t say anything for the time being.

Not long after, they arrived at Han Liling’s ward. Afraid that she would have a bad reaction to Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo, Doctor Yu stopped them and said, “Brother Li, sister-in-law, please wait here for a moment. I’ll ask the patient first if she wants to see both of you.”

Knowing his worries, Lu Jueyu nodded and said, “Okay.”

After knocking on the door, Doctor Yu walked into the ward and walked towards Han Liling’s bedside. Hearing his footsteps, she turned and smiled at him.

While standing beside her bed, Doctor Yu patted her head gently and asked. “Liling, how are you feeling now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Han Liling shook her head and gave a thumbs up.

Doctor Yu nodded and said, “We have two guests today. They are from your village, named Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu. Do you want to meet them?”

When Han Liling heard this, her eyes lit up and she nodded quickly. She also wanted to ask if they had her uncle’s address. She wished she hadn’t lost the letter so she could go to her uncle’s place.

Seeing her eagerness, Doctor Yu smiled and said, “Alright, I will invite them in.”

After saying that, he walked to the door and said, “Brother Li, sister-in-law, please come in.”

Entering the ward, Lu Jueyu found that although it was a four-person ward, Han Liling was the only one in the ward. She must be scared out here alone. After all, she is just an 8-year-old girl.

When she walked over, Lu Jueyu smiled at her and said, “Liling, Aunt Li and Uncle Li are here to see you. How do you feel?”

Hearing her words, Han Liling opened her mouth and made a series of hoarse sounds, “Ah, ah ah… ah.”

Putting the bamboo basket on the bedside table, Lu Jueyu smiled at her and said, “Xiao Ling, Aunt Li cooked porridge and chicken soup for you. There are also some snacks. You can eat when you are hungry.”

Han Liling looked at the bamboo basket with complicated eyes. She was hungry, but no matter what she ate, she always threw it up. She felt it was a waste of food and didn’t want to eat anymore.
