Chapter 23

Translated by CatMeme6

The hand that was holding the door know slowly withdrew and screwing up her face Jia Shao turned around. She had an expression that showed she wanted very much to tear him up, chew him into bits and swallow him. "I will request for a female doctor. Don't tell me you don't have a female doctor here. If that is not possible, I will go to another hospital!'

*Shua!......* The curtains were pulled open and the sudden sunlight was a bit blinding. Jia Shao involuntarily squinted her eyes and looked away to avoid the glare.

"A female doctor will still have to touch, rub, squeeze and draw." Zhen Lang sat back in his chair. "Although you have a carefree personality, you usually don't like to have intimate physical contact with others. Are you sure you can accept a pair of hands crawling all over your body, even if that person is a doctor?"

Her face changed color and turned gloomy.

Zhen Lang is correct. Except for the people she extremely trusted, she does not like anyone come too close to her. She does not know whether it is the result of her practicing martial arts or it is her own psychological problem. She has a strong sense of territory and a sense of personal space. Once someone approaches herself, she will subconsciously dodge and become alert. If anyone is to break into her personal space she will even unconsciously throw up her fists.

So she did not like to squeeze herself into a bus and would prefer to sit in her enemy's car to avoid any physical contact with other people. Of course, she would usually try to control herself and she had never mentioned this little problem to anyone. But how did Zhen Lang know about this?

"I.......will endure." These three words were spoken while gritting her teeth. She did not know whether these words were said to convince Zhen Lang or to convince herself.

"We can discuss later about this point." Zhen Lang suddenly stopped arguing with her. "Since you insist on doing this surgery, I will definitely have to tell you of all the possible dangers. Seeing that we are cohabitating, I will try my best to explain to you in detail."

When she heard this, Jia Shao's eyes flashed a trace of softness. After thinking about this, she walked back to the desk, pulled out the chair and sat down. "Speak!"

"That......." He rummaged through the document, pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to her. "This is a surgery consent form. I will explain this to you carefully and you can consider this as a gift from a friend."

He hooked his finger at her to indicate for Jia Shao to come closer. She stretched her neck and moved her chair nearer to him, sitting with her arm next to his arm and listened seriously.

"Although this type of surgery is considered small now, there is no guarantee that it will be accident-free, right?" Zhen Lang's voice was very serious. Occasionally, the glance that he gave Jia Shao was restrained without any trace of teasing intent. "There are also accidents caused by human such as car accidents and severe impacts which may cause the prosthesis to rupture. Then that time a surgery is inevitable to completely remove it or you will........."

"What will happen?" Not waiting for Zhen Lang to continue, Jia Shao asked in a hurry.

"If one is ruptured, there will only be one left." Zhen Lang's voice was very casual. "One side will be A- and the other side will be D+."

"Then how will one walk?" Jia Shao said in a rush. "Will the person walk lopsided?"

He shrugged his shoulders and beamed a sly smile.

"No, that's incorrect." Jia Shao thought for a moment. "That can be redone, right?"

"Yes." Zhen Lang answered sincerely. "However, everything must be removed and the wound cleaned up. Before a new implant can be done, the wound must be completely healed. But......" He stared at Jia Shao while he lightly tapped his fingers on the desk. "When a person's skin is stretched and then everything under the skin is removed, can you imagine what it will look like?"

The corner of her mouth twitched slightly. "A balloon that was filled with air for a long time had deflated."

He nodded and showed her an expression that said.......'you are very clever'.

"And......." He reached out his hand and pinched Jia Shao's cheek. The person who was pinched slapped away his hand with irritation as she glared at him to express her dissatisfaction. It seemed she did not realize that their arms were brushing against each other, breathing into each other without any distance between them.

"The thickness of human skin is limited. If it is unsuccessful the first time, the most you can redo is one more time. After that, if you need to do it again, extreme care must be taken. Remember, in the future, you will not be able to wear spaghetti straps." He pointed his finger to his armpit. "There will be scars."

Every time he said a word, Jia Shao's mouth would pull down a little and her eyebrows would knit together two inches. By the time he had finished talking, her face was completely distorted.

"I advise you to reconsider." There seemed to be a hint of seduction in his voice. "After all, once it is done, it is not something you want to remove and it can be removed."

Jia Shao blinked her eyes and wondered what Zhen Lang meant as he flipped through the folder in his hands. "Here are some photos of unsuccessful surgeries. I often use these for case studies. You can have a look at them."

The photos could be considered shocking as they showed mutilations. She could only see the knife cuts and scars all over deformed chests covered with dry flesh showing the miserable comparisons of both breasts, especially the eccentric color of the photo like they were taken at the scene of a car accident which made her quickly looked away after a few glances.

Her little liver constricted again and again. The inexplicable liquid in her stomach began to churn and several times it rushed up to her throat.

With a calm expression, Zhen Lang put away the photos. "These are all real shots. This is a warning to women who are obsessed with beauty. It also helps to keep doctors vigilant as they can't afford to make any mistake. Medical insurance can't insure against psychological traumas."

Jia Shao gave a light cough and finally, she was able to calm down. Two thoughts lingered in her mind struggling to compete with each other.

Her gaze fell on the documents in Zhen Lang's hands. The sheets of paper fluttered past in front of her, rocking her memory as each sheet of paper folded into an illusory paper plane.

Her eyes suddenly became clear and Jia Shao looked up to stare fixedly at Zhen Lang. "Did you do that deliberately?"

"What?" His hands that were in the midst of putting away the documents instantly stopped. Very naturally, he responded to her question.

"Nothing." She raised her chin. "I still want to do it. This hospital had done thousands of successful surgeries without any failure, isn't that right? I don't believe that I will be an example of failure. I have decided to do it. If you are not willing to take this case, then I will look for another doctor."

When his hands stopped, his expression was calm and there was a hint of a smile on his face. "Of course, I will take this case."

"Do you want me to strip for an examination?" She held her shirt with both hands and lifted it up with determination. "Come."

However, before she could remove her shirt, her hands were held down by someone. "Wait."

"What?" Jia Shao moved her lips and looked down at the pair of hands that was resting on her waist clutching her shirt. His long slender fingers were glued to her body and her thin T-shirt could not keep away the warmth of his palms as the heat radiated through her body.

His hands were very big. Just by holding her like this, almost two-thirds of her waist was already in his grasp. At this moment compared to Zhen Lang, she found that she was indeed petite.

"First tell me how big do you want them to be?" Zhen Lang pressed her back into the chair.

Does this mean he agrees to do the surgery for her?

"This big........." She gestured in the air with her hands, bringing them back to her chest and indicated a certain height.

"Two pears?" He mentioned the shape as a comparison.

She tilted her head to think and felt it was a bit too small. Then she raised her palms higher and said. "This big."

"Two melons?" His lips twitched as if he was laughing.

Jia Shao fantasized about the hot sexy figures she saw on the TV and firmly shook her head. She raised her hands again and said. "Bigger.......like this!!!"

Zhen Lang nodded his head and sighed deeply. "Two ruby red-flesh unicorn watermelons."

(A unicorn melon is a species of watermelon which is round in shape.)

"Yes!" Jia Shao finally smiled with satisfaction this time.

"Okay." Zhen Lang agreed very smoothly. He got up, took off his white coat, grabbed her hand and led her out of the door. "Let's go!"

Jia Shao was dragged quickly all the way and she was mystified. "What are you doing?"

Zhen Lang suddenly stopped and turned around. Unable to stop in time, she crashed into his arms.

Her chin was lifted up and Zhen Lang's smiling face was magnified in front of her eyes. "Taking you to adapt to your future life. First, you have to get used to it."

Can this matter be adapted in advance?

The doubtful Miss Jia was shoved into the car and driven to the nearest supermarket where she was brought to the fruits section.

"What do you want to do?"

Pushing the shopping cart Jia Shao looked in confusion at Zhen Lang who was walking around the fruit section in high spirits.

With a strange smile on his face, he chose four watermelons about the same size and put them in the shopping cart. Then he placed his arm around Jia Shao's shoulders and said. "Come, let's go home."

When he paid the bill, he especially bought three large plastic bags and he loaded two of the melons into a bag. The other two melons were individually packed in two bags and the openings of the bags were tied together.

He looked at the two bags and picked them up. It seemed he was very satisfied and then he hooked his finger at Jia Shao. She foolishly stretched out her head towards him and asked. "What?"

Before the word was fully out of her mouth, she felt a heavy weight bearing down on her neck. Fortunately, she did not collapse under the heavy weight. "Aiya......."

Then she discovered that the two plastic bags were already hung on her neck. The two watermelons rested exactly on the right and left of her chest and the heavy weights made her neck felt cramp.

Just as she was about to open her mouth, Zhen Lang had already intimately hugged her shoulders and leaned into her ear. "Didn't you say you wanted them this big? Adapt to it first. Otherwise, if you feel uncomfortable and you want to remove them later, I will not be able to reverse the process to what you have now."

Uncomfortable? Who said she will feel uncomfortable??

She swallowed back the words that were hovering on her lips. She straightened her back, held up her neck and under Zhen Lang's smile, she started to walk.

But walking the distance from the supermarket to the parking lot, Jia Shao already felt that she was suffocating. She could ignore the discomfort of the two huge things pressing down on her chest but they swung from time to time in sync with her footsteps which made it difficult for her to find her balance.

"Hey, Vet! Wait for me!" Seeing that Zhen Lang had moved ten steps ahead of her, she quickened her steps to catch up with him. In the past, with a few light steps she would be able to catch up but now the distance seemed to be very far.

After running two steps she stopped as the two watermelons swayed against her chest making her breathing difficult and her posture became weird.

She placed her hands on her neck, took two deep breaths and then realized Zhen Lang was already standing next to the car looking at her with a smile.

Panting heavily she ran up to the car and leaned miserably on the door. As she sucked in her breath with her mouth opened, Zhen Lang's voice drifted over. "Raise your head, chest out. Beautiful women walk with elegance and grace. They will not walk like you, hunching your back like a tortoise."

Hearing this, someone immediately looked up, pulled back her neck with her chest out and looked straight ahead. Then she opened the car door and sat in.

All along the way, Jia Shao felt that the road which was extremely smooth in the past had suddenly sprouted countless potholes. Jolting up and down, the two big balls bounced in front of her chest and they were weighing her down. She felt she could not breathe any longer.

Lifting her hands, she held up the two unicorn watermelons in front of her chest and finally felt a little relaxed. Her face displayed a smile of relief.

Before her smile could bloom into a big smile, she was interrupted by a laughing voice. "In future, are you going to hold up your breasts when you feel tired walking on the streets?"

Jia Shao's expression froze and slowly she released her hands. The two heavy melons fell back in place and even her neck which had just risen was now bent down again.

Quietly, she curved her body to secretly rest the two watermelons on her lap. Jia Shao gasped and felt it was not only her neck but her back also felt the strain.

"Get down!"

Good times did not last even a few minutes and the sound of Zhen Lang's voice was like a clingy pestering soul which made her grimaced.

No matter how she could not find her balance on her swaying legs and shaky body.

The short distance to the elevator was a painful journey for her. It was not easy for her to walk into the elevator and seeing that home was near, she leaned against the wall with a look of expectation.

The moment the elevator door opened, the person next to her said to her. "Your shoelace is undone."

She bowed her head and looked. In the past, she could see her feet from the front of her chest in a straight line but now it was blocked by two watermelons and she could not see anything.

Pulling them away, they dropped back in place.......then she pulled again but she did not have extra hands to tie the shoelace.

In the chaos, the elevator door slowly closed and the person standing outside the elevator door could not help but smile as he looked at her panic-stricken expression.

"Wait!" She cried as she charged out the door.

Her left foot stepped on the loose shoelace on her right foot and she stumbled, falling forward.

Reaching out her hand, instinctively she used the wall at the side to support herself. Her falling momentum changed direction and avoided the ugly scene of falling flat on her face. Jia Shao managed to save herself and with a few steps, she attached her body to the wall.

"Oooh......." She exhaled. "Luckily it's not so embarrassing."

*Ka......* A crisp sound spread out from her chest. The correct words should be......the sound spread from the two plastic bags that were between her and the wall.

Through the transparent plastic bags, it could be seen that the two watermelons were cracked and were slowly opening up with red watermelon juice silently seeping out.

"Uh........" Jia Shao turned her head to him. "Vet, did you plan this?"
