On Friday afternoon, Hu Lei left the library around lunchtime to prepare for the dreaded appointment. Under normal circumstances, she would be enjoying a light lunch in the library before continuing with her work. This had been her routine for the past few days.
Unfortunately, she could not concentrate on writing with the sword of a hospital visit hanging over her head. She felt a little sense of dread at this upcoming consultation. She just could not put her fears out of her mind, no matter how much she tried.
The worst part was that she could not postpone the consultation. Zhong Feng was taking her to the doctor in person. She tried to calm herself and convince herself that seeing a doctor was a good thing. After all, she did want to know if there was something wrong with her body. She felt fine physically, but she knew that her mental state was not good.
