Into the Night, Jiao Jiao Gets Kissed by a Business Tycoon

Chapter 191: Chapter 191: [Extra] Just Don’t Let Me Down Chapter 191: Chapter 191: [Extra] Just Don’t Let Me Down Recently, Zhou Lezhi’s illness had become increasingly severe, and she, not even ten years old, lay in a small bed that resembled a protective shield.

A specialized air filtration machine sat by the head of the bed, and a frame with clear plastic curtains was set up outside, trying to isolate all the germs from the outside world, like a miniature sterile laboratory.

Inside the protective shield, Lezhi, with her head shaved, lay quietly there, and every time Jiang Yurou came to visit, she felt particularly heavy-hearted.

This time Lezhi’s leukemia relapse was the most serious than ever before, with the tumor cells doubling every day. She could only force herself to undergo one round after another of intense chemotherapy, and her originally chubby little face had now become sunken.

To check how much Lezhi’s tumor cells had increased during this period, and whether they had mutated, doctors would regularly perform a bone marrow biopsy on her. Using a long puncture needle, they would vertically penetrate her tiny body, through the periosteum, into the bone, and draw out a small sample of bone marrow.

This process was extremely painful, and every time, Zhou Lezhi would curl up into a ball, screaming in agony.

But despite the pain, Zhou Lezhi still endured and cooperated with the doctors, with beads of sweat forming on her forehead.

Jiang Yurou had cried several times, hiding away in distress, and as for Zhou Ming, there was no need to say more – ever since Lezhi’s condition had relapsed, he had not slept a wink, his eyes swollen like walnuts, looking utterly wretched.

That day, the doctors discussed Lezhi’s condition with Zhou Ming, and the situation was very grim. A bone marrow transplant was needed as soon as possible; otherwise, if they waited too long, even Hua Tuo himself could not save Lezhi.
