1714 Tumor

The doctor and nurse were really anxious, but Xia Mingcheng’s face only changed slightly. He carried Yuan Yuan to the recliner that was behind a curtain; his gaze on her was dark and indecipherable. He had the vague feeling that Yuan Yuan’s sudden discomfort and her throwing up blood was most likely related to Master Chi exorcizing that dirty thing. He wondered how Master Chi was doing.

Xia Mingcheng wasn’t lost in thought for long. Not long after, the screams of a man and a woman suddenly rang out from behind the curtain – naturally, it was none other than the doctor and nurse. Thinking that something had happened to the two of them, his face changed drastically and he immediately went over. Before he could push the curtain aside, the nurse came rushing out with a pale face, almost knocking into Xia Mingcheng. It was Xia Mingcheng who quickly dodged and steadied himself. He glanced at the face of the unconscious woman that was revealed behind the curtain. He feigned anxiety and asked, “What’s wrong? Nurse? What’s wrong with my friend?”

The nurse was terrified by the human-faced tumor on the inside of the girl’s leg. Her face was very unsightly and flustered, as if she had just seen a ghost. If the man in front of her hadn’t steadied her, her body would have turned to jelly and she would have collapsed to the floor. Speaking of which, she had never seen such a terrifying tumor.

She wasn’t a very cowardly person, and had seen many tumors, but she had never seen human faces on a tumor. The faces even had expressions, and could smile malevolently at people.

When she and Director Zhang took a look at the girl’s inner leg earlier, they had really been scared out of their wits by the hideous tumor. The nurse’s whole body was still cold and her limbs turned to jelly when she thought about it. Fortunately, it was broad daylight, and there were people coming and going in the hallway outside. Only then did the nurse gradually calm down. Thinking that the man in front of her was the girl’s boyfriend, the nurse looked like she wanted to say something, but hesitated. Her eyes were filled with panic and she almost cried. After holding it in for a long time, she stuttered, “I… I don’t dare… say. Why don’t… you go in yourself… and take a look?”

Xia Mingcheng was stunned when he heard the nurse’s words. Before he could ask any more questions, the nurse rushed out of the office; she was running so fast that he couldn’t even call out to her even if he wanted to. He could only push the curtain aside to talk to the doctor. He immediately saw Dr. Zhang’s incomparably grim and terrified face, and his body was still trembling. His expression could be considered calm, but on a closer look, one could immediately tell that it was fake; his body was trembling violently, and his eyes were filled with fear and all sorts of emotions as he stared at Yuan Yuan.

Xia Mingcheng was even more alarmed, and he asked curiously, “Dr. Zhang, what’s wrong with my friend?”

Dr. Zhang didn’t immediately reply. Instead, he took a deep breath and couldn’t calm down for a long time. He couldn’t utter a word and didn’t know what to say.

Xia Mingcheng could only look at the inside of Yuan Yuan’s leg. When he got a little closer and saw the black, rotting tumor on Yuan Yuan’s leg, he was stunned for a moment. Soon, he also saw a few very familiar faces on the tumor.

Xia Mingcheng’s face changed drastically at that moment. It was as if a bolt from the blue had struck him as his eyes were glued to the familiar faces.

In particular, when his eyes fell on Yan Liling’s familiar face, it felt like a bomb going off as all the blood in his body suddenly rushed to his head.

Xia Mingcheng’s face flushed red before turning deathly pale in the next second; there was a murderous glint in his red eyes, as pain, hatred and disbelief flashed through him.

As Xia Mingcheng stared at Yan Liling’s familiar face, an unprecedented murderous urge flared in his chest for a moment. He itched to strangle Yuan Yuan to death on the spot, but that would be too easy an end for her. Xia Mingcheng gasped heavily as he never looked away from the familiar faces, especially Yan Liling’s.

On the other side, Dr. Zhang finally regained some of his composure. Seeing that the young man next to him looked very strange and was gasping heavily, as if he was about to faint, he hurriedly supported him; the young man was probably too shocked, terrified or sad about the human-faced tumor on the girl’s leg.

Dr. Zhang stumbled and hurriedly consoled him. “I… I’ve never seen anything like this! But, young man, don’t be too worried or sad. Technology is so advanced now; your girlfriend will definitely be fine. Stay with your girlfriend for a while. I’ll go find another expert to discuss this!”

Who knew if the human-faced tumor had been too much of a shock, but when Dr. Zhang comforted the young man, his own teeth chattered and his voice shook.

Dr. Zhang had just finished consoling the young man, when there was a commotion at the office door. He saw the nurse, who had rushed out just now, return with a few elderly and highly respected doctors.

A few particularly experienced and skilled doctors had also heard about the situation from the nurse just now and came over to take a look, overflowing with curiosity. They hadn’t believed the nurse at first, but seeing that Dr. Zhang’s face didn’t look good, they were even more curious. The old doctor in the lead asked anxiously, “Old Zhang, is the young lady okay? Xiao Yang just said that there’s a human-faced tumor on the inside of her leg. Is that true?”
