Chapter 312

St. Maria Hospital.

The reason why she was so familiar with St. Maria Hospital was that

she had once run up and down the hospital for Justin, but in the end,

she still couldn't get Justin into surgery.

When she came back to the old place, saw the hospital just the way

they were before...

When she counted the days, not much time had passed since then.

Perhaps too many things had happened recently, and she had no time

to pay attention to herself. The face of Justin in her heart had

surprisingly become more and more blurred.

The responsibilities that were once more important than life were

gradually being put aside.

She had once called him everyday just to find his whereabouts, but

now it had been a long time since the time time she called.

Time was, perhaps, the sharpest knife to wear down life.

She sat in the waiting room. The hospital was crowded. She quietly

waited for her number to be called. When she was so bored, she

organized the files in her phone. It was good that all her important

photos and information were in the cloud, and her important contacts

were also there.

After waiting for a while, it was finally her turn.

She got up, took the lab slip from the previous blood test, and walked

into the doctor's consultation room.

The doctor took her blood test form and asked her carefully about her

medical history and her recent condition.

Finally, the doctor typed rapidly into the computer and said to her, “I'm

transferring you to the OB/GYN department. What you have are not

stomach problems, nor are they typical of gastroenteritis. I suggest you

go for an abdominal ultrasound.”

The doctor tapped on the keyboard, "Well, I've already transferred you,

no need to reschedule the registration. First you should do a b

ultrasound scan first at the imaging room, and then go to the outpatient

clinic for consultation.”

"Okay, thanks a lot." Joyce walked out of the room.

She came to the imaging room on the fifth floor, which she was also

very familiar with, having brought Justin here for imaging many times

before.

Today was a lucky day, there were not many people doing ultrasound

scans.

Usually there were crowds of people outside, and the line went from

morning to afternoon.

She waited for about an hour and it was her turn.

She walked quickly into the ultrasound room, laid down on the bed, and

lifted her clothes.

"Married, right?" The female ultrasound doctor asked.

"Hmm." Joyce roughly understood what the doctor meant. If she was

still a virgin, she could not reach in the probe from the lower body for

the ultrasound. And since she was no longer a virgin, so naturally she

could.

The ultrasound doctor sticked the probe in and started scanning.

It was not really any pleasant experience, and she even felt some pain.

Joyce could not help but frown.

"Don't move, I'll be gentle.” The ultrasound doctor said.

"Good." Joyce held back her discomfort. It was the first time she had

this kind of examination. In fact, she didn't figure out why the

gastroenterologist recommended her to have an ultrasound when she

just had stomach discomfort.

“There you go." The ultrasound doctor removed the probe, "You can

get up now. The images have been transmitted to the obstetrician and

gynecologist, so you can go wait for your consultation.”

Joyce sat up and thought about it and asked one more question,

“Doctor, I'm not sick, am 1?"

The ultrasound doctor looked at her in surprise, her eyes full of

puzzlement, "Not at all, it's just a regular maternity checkup. I just don’t

know why just everybody nowadays feels they are sick.”

"Me, maternity checkup?!" Joyce was baffled and completely confused.

She only came to check her stomach, how come she would take a

maternity test?

She wanted to pursue the question, but the doctor was too busy and

the next patient had already entered the room.

"Next, lie down.” The ultrasound doctor said.
