Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 1977 - 1981: Beibei... I’m Sorry...

Gu Junzhu immediately stepped forward, "Doctor, how is my wife?"

"The surgery was very successful, there’s no threat to her life, but..." The doctor removed her mask and looked at Gu Junzhu, hesitating to speak.

She knew this person’s status was prestigious, and there were things she hesitated to say.

Gu Junzhu frowned, "But what? Just tell me directly, I know the hospital and all of you have done your best."

"It’s just...your wife’s ovaries and uterus were injured by the knife," the doctor said haltingly. "In the future...it might affect her fertility..."

"Her ovaries and uterus were injured?" Gu Junzhu frowned, "Wasn’t it just one stab?"

When he asked this, his voice was very calm, but only he knew how much it hurt inside.

He wished that knife had stabbed him instead.

"Yes," the doctor said, "but the knife stabbed in at an angle, injuring both the uterus and the ovaries."

"Aren’t there two sides to the ovaries? Isn’t it possible to get pregnant as long as one side is ovulating normally?" Gu Junzhu’s mind was racing.

He couldn’t accept the doctor’s conclusion.

Ye Xingbei was still so young.

He and Ye Xingbei didn’t have any children yet.

He and Ye Xingbei both wanted a child of their own.

"Yes," the doctor said, "but with the uterus injured, even if the other ovary can ovulate normally, your wife herself won’t be able to carry a child. She would need in vitro fertilization and a surrogate mother...I’m talking about the worst-case scenario..."

The doctor, watching Gu Junzhu’s expression, carefully said, "The human body is very mysterious, and with your wife’s uterus and one ovary injured, it’s highly likely that it will affect the function of the other ovary, leading to infertility..."

Even though she was afraid to speak, afraid of incurring Gu Junzhu’s anger, she still had to say it.

She had been a doctor for many years and had seen many such cases.

Many bodily functions are interlinked; for many women whose uterus and one ovary are compromised, the other ovary soon loses its normal function.

She had to inform Gu Junzhu of this possibility; otherwise, if complications arose, and Gu Junzhu believed it was due to inadequate treatment, she would be in even more trouble.

Gu Junzhu clenched his fist, "When will we know for sure if my wife’s fertility won’t be affected?"

The doctor said, "After your wife recovers, she’ll need to undergo an examination to confirm if the other ovary’s ovulation function is good."

"Okay, I understand," Gu Junzhu nodded. "Can I go in and see my wife now?"

"Yes, you can," the doctor said. "Your wife’s surgery was very successful. Although the aftermath is quite serious, the surgical wound isn’t large, so her recovery should go well. You don’t need to worry too much."

Gu Junzhu nodded and said no more as he walked into the emergency room.

A nurse was pushing a stretcher bed out.

Gu Junzhu hurriedly approached, placing his hand on the side of the stretcher bed, leaning down to look at Ye Xingbei.

Ye Xingbei had her eyes closed, her face deathly pale, like white paper, without a hint of color.

Gu Junzhu felt heartbroken, softly calling, "Beibei..."

The nurse said, "The patient’s anesthesia hasn’t worn off yet, she’ll wake up in a few hours."

Gu Junzhu nodded, "I know..."

He just wanted to call her name and talk to her.

Gu Junzhu and the nurse moved Ye Xingbei into the ward together.

The nurse settled Ye Xingbei in and left the room.

Gu Junzhu sat by the bed, holding her hand, pressing her palm to his face, "Beibei...I’m sorry..."
