Doctor Xiao knew it was time for him to break the long moment of silence. He cleared his throat before speaking.

"Doctor Shen, I would like to apologize on behalf of my.. i mean your patient for arriving late for her appointment. I was the one who held her at my office. Please don't be offended. I hope you can proceed with the rehab treatment immediately."

"Don't worry. I'm not offended at all,it's just that i was in a bad mood.. I'd like to speak with you later." He spoke in a less cold manner as he arranged his paperworks.

Doctor Xiao raised his eyebrow as he thought, 'What? Is he mad at me for something else?'

He couldn't help but gulp nervously.

Fei Shuang couldn't help but feel afraid but still kept her usual expression on her face. This was the moment she's been avoiding all morning.

'Oh. My. G.o.d. I'm grave going to my grave.'

She said in her mind as she swallowed the lump of nervousness in her throat.

When Doctor Xiao took a brief glance at Li Chu, he saw Li Chu was looking at him. Maybe he had been watching him for quite some time.

Doctor Xiao opened his mouth and spoke.

"Alright, I'll take my leave now."

Li Chu concluded the conversation with a nod. His face changed as he tried to soften his tone. "Hmn. You can go now."

Doctor Xiao couldn't bear to watch this weird expression as he quickly left, leaving Fei Shuang alone with Li Chu in the office. Fei Shuang couldn't help but feel anxious when she was left alone with Mr Shen.

Li Chu stared at Fei Shuang in order to have a good view of her body part. He needs visibility of her legs which would be the part he would be treating.She wore a dark purple loose pants and cream fitted blouse with purple slip-on sneakers. Her hair was packed in one single braid.

'The dressing isn't bad and she'll be comfortable to allow plenty of room for movement. Hair tied up in a braid is better for neck alignment since her injury is from the spine.' He thought very carefully before he opened his mouth to speak.

"Good morning Miss Lee. How are you doing?"

Fei Shuang felt like a bucket full of ice was poured onto her when she heard a deep, familiar voice making her snap out from her deep thoughts. She felt chills on her spine as she stared right into Mr Shen's eyes.

She slowly managed to smile as she replied, "Good morning Mr Shen. I'm doing great,thanks for asking. And you?"

"I'm doing just fine. Do you feel pain in any part of your body?" He asked as he grabbed a small notepad.

"No I don't." Fei Shuang answered straight away in nonchalance.

"Did you experience any kind of symptoms before?"

Li Chu asked again as he kept his gaze on the notepad. He needed to confirm his suspicions about her real diagnosis.

"I usually had problems in breathing and coughing at night and had absolutely no control over bowel and bladder activities. I also felt tingling sensation in my legs but not anymore."

"Ok. I see."

Li Chu didn't say much as he slightly nod his head. His suspicions were confirmed.

Hearing Mr Shen's response was somewhat cold, Fei Shuang could only shut her mouth and wait patiently for Mr Shen to take action.

She really didn't know what happened to this man that he was angry a while ago but her feeling wasn't good. Could it be because of her? Did she do something wrong unknowingly?

Li Chu kept asking questions while Fei Shuang answered sincerely for a brief moment. After having enough evidence to satisfy his suspicions, it was time to come up with a rehab treatment plan since Fei Shuang was already been examined so he only needed to order some special test.

Fei Shuang accompanied Mr shen into an average office which looked like an examination room with a paper covered bed which the patient lies or sit down,some various equipments and a medium desk covered in various instruments. Fei Shuang mind began imagining as cruel torturing devices. There were blood pressure cuff,gauge,tuning fork, tongue depressor,hypodermic needles,reflex hammer,ophthalmoscope, x-ray etc.

Li Chu was pleasant enough with the procedure, quickly identifying her ailment.

As a matter of protocol, he took her blood pressure. That's when he made a startling discovery about Fei Shuang, she had extremely low blood pressure. Mr Shen concluded that he had come up with her rehab treatment plan. She was first given treatment to rise her blood pressure and rest a bit before the treatment starts.

Fei Shuang closed her eyes and took a deep breath as she looked at Li Chu who was busy looking at her chart. Suddenly, Fei Shuang's phone rang, getting Li Chu's attention as well.

She took her phone from her mini hand bag and saw her grandma's name appeared on the screen.

Fei Shuang suddenly panicked.

'Grandma's calling? It's a video call on top of that!'

What does she do now? She haven't informed her grandma of her situation. She can't see her in this way,absolutely no!

Thank G.o.d she was sitting on the examination bed so she could just raise her phone up a bit to expose her face only.

After informing Mr Shen of the person calling, Fei Shuang swiped right to accept the call.

"Nainai [1]? What's wrong? Why did you call unexpectedly?" Fei Shuang held the phone closely to her in order to hide her surroundings.

"Nin[2], silly child! Do i need a reason to call my sunnu[3]?"

Fei Shuang couldn't help but roll her eyes internally. She did not respond to her grandma's question because she was guilty.

Seeing Fei Shuang was thinking too much, the old woman cough a few times in order to get her granddaughter's attention.

"Well.. I've been so worried about you. You haven't called for months and I couldn't contact you since your aunt took me to an old people's home. She thinks it's a nursing home and I'll be better cared for since you've moved out."
