Chapter 144: Chapter 144 Bad News Good News

Professor Zhou arrived soon, a middle-aged woman in her fifties with silvery temples, looking exceptionally energetic and authoritative.

She quickly entered the room, took the medical records from an intern’s hand, and then turned to Cheng Youran, "Your friend?"

"Yes, Teacher Zhou, please think of something," Cheng Youran pleaded earnestly.

"Don’t panic," Zhou Weizhen said in a steady voice, flipping through the medical records and then asking the intern to bring the ultrasound machine.

Su Lu lay on the examination table, as Professor Zhou squeezed coupling agent on her abdomen and gently moved the probe over her flat belly. Under her gold-rimmed glasses, she stared intently at the screen.

Su Lu couldn’t understand the images on the screen, so she kept her eyes fixed on Professor Zhou’s facial expressions, hoping to glean some insight into her condition from her subtle expressions.

Cheng Youran also stood up, staring at the ultrasound screen with grave concern.

Su Lu didn’t know if she had become less sharp or if these doctors were just too good at managing their expressions, but she couldn’t read anything from their faces.

Seeing that they hadn’t spoken for a while, Su Lu couldn’t help but ask, "How is it?"

"Hiss... this..." Cheng Youran frowned, seeming uncertain, and then turned to look at Zhou Weizhen, asking, "Teacher Zhou, is this what I think it is?"

"You can see it and still are so uncertain?" Zhou Weizhen countered.

"I just find it hard to believe because it’s quite a rare condition," Cheng Youran said.

Su Lu grabbed his hand, "What is it? You Ran, how is it?"

"You Ran patted her hand, "Don’t rush, let Teacher Zhou explain to you."

Su Lu anxiously looked towards Professor Zhou.

Zhou Weizhen turned the ultrasound screen towards Su Lu and then pointed to it, "You are indeed pregnant, but the situation is somewhat complicated."

Hearing that Professor Zhou said the situation was complicated but not bad, Su Lu was slightly relieved and didn’t dare to interrupt, listening attentively to her.

Zhou Weizhen pointed on the screen, "Here is a gestational sac."

Su Lu immediately stared at that spot, "Is it here... is it okay?"

Professor Zhou said, "Not just here."

Su Lu was stunned, "Wha... what?"

Professor Zhou pointed to another spot, "And here."

"Two... two?" Su Lu was dumbfounded. Honestly, at that moment, even the strong sadness and pain she felt had numbed momentarily.

"Yes, two, but the situation is a bit complicated," Professor Zhou pointed to the first gestational sac, "This gestational sac is an ectopic pregnancy, you understand what an ectopic pregnancy is, right? It means the pregnancy is outside the uterus."

Su Lu felt she understood, yet it was as if she didn’t, just staring blankly at Professor Zhou.

Professor Zhou, probably used to seeing patients react this way, remained calm, "So your situation is quite complicated, more so than a normal pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy."

"What should be done?" Su Lu had heard of ectopic pregnancies and knew that often, it’s hard to save anything in such situations, not just the baby, but in severe cases, it could cause severe bleeding and even the fallopian tubes might not be saved.

"Rest assured, we will certainly intervene and treat," Professor Zhou pointed at the screen, "Currently, it seems that we cannot save this one, but we can try to save the other one, and we will also try to preserve your fallopian tube on this side. Though having one fallopian tube does not affect future fertility, it is still better to preserve both if possible."

This shouldn’t be considered good news, but perhaps because Professor Zhou’s voice was so calm and composed, it gave a sense of reassurance, especially since Su Lu had already braced herself for worse outcomes.

Thus, although the current result wasn’t good, it seemed much easier to accept than the worst-case scenario.

Cheng You Ran held her hand to comfort her, "Don’t worry, it will get better. We can try to save the other one."

Dazed, Su Lu nodded, paused for a moment, and nodded again, "That’s great."

Su Lu was immediately arranged to be admitted to the hospital. Her blood-stained beautiful gown was removed and replaced with a striped hospital gown.

Lying on the hospital bed, Su Lu was still dazed and somewhat incredulous, so her hand constantly rested on her lower abdomen.

After completing the admission procedures, Cheng You Ran walked in, "The surgery has been arranged as soon as possible, and Professor Zhou will perform it. You don’t have to worry about her skills."

"Mhm," Su Lu nodded.

Cheng You Ran sat down beside the bed and then asked, "Xiaolu, are you okay?"

Su Lu’s emotions seemed to have lost the agitation from when she was at Yunding. Whether it was despair, sadness, or unbearable pain, it all seemed to be veiled.

It was as if a lifesaving straw had appeared in the midst of despair, making the unbearable pain seem veiled, less obvious, and more bearable.

So Su Lu nodded, "It seems alright."

She gently touched her flat abdomen, "It really does seem alright. I even feel somewhat relieved."

"I won’t ask you what exactly happened, Gu Xin just left," Cheng You Ran said.

Initially, she thought Gu Xin might have caused some trouble, given that Cheng You Ran had quite a prejudice against him.

But seeing Su Lu’s condition, Cheng You Ran realized it didn’t have much to do with Gu Xin.

It wasn’t that she, Cheng You Ran, looked down on Gu Xin, but she knew Su Lu too well. Su Lu would never have a child for Gu Xin.

Thus, Cheng You Ran had just gone out to talk to Gu Xin, who was still waiting outside. Cheng You Ran and Gu Xin didn’t really get along, but unexpectedly, Gu Xin was even more furious than her and told her everything straight.

That was how Cheng You Ran knew roughly what had happened.

"Mhm," Su Lu replied softly, not saying much.

Cheng You Ran asked, "What do you plan to do afterward?"

Su Lu’s gaze drifted off, but her eyes clearly showed determination.

She was naturally a person as resilient as reeds and as firm as a rock. Once she decided something, it seemed that not even ten bulls could pull her back.

"Take good care of the little one inside my belly," Su Lu said. She paused, as if she remembered something, and laughed self-deprecatingly, "Speaking of which, he once gave me a card."

"A card?" Cheng You Ran raised an eyebrow; she didn’t understand the dynamic between them, but surely Bo Jingshen wouldn’t actually treat Su Xiaolu as a mistress?

Su Lu nodded, "Mhm, there are several million in there. Perhaps, it can just serve as child support."
