"Doctor, is there a way to adjust it?" Li Minxi asked, looking at the doctor.
"Your situation is quite tricky.
The main problems are that the fetus is too large, and there's also umbilical cord entanglement around the neck.
The kneeling position won't work anymore."
The doctor said, looking at the scan in his hand.
"If you want a natural birth, you might have to go to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital and find Vice President Yan Shiliang. He's skilled at adjusting fetal positions.
However, your situation is rather serious, with the umbilical cord being a bit tight around the neck. It's just uncertain if he'll take your case."
"Yan Shiliang? Maternal and Child Health Hospital?
Lu Lu, weren't you at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital before you came here?
Do you know this person?"
Li Minxi repeated, looking at Li Xiaolu.
"Director Yan is indeed capable of this. However, you'll need to be hospitalized there to give birth," Li Xiaolu replied.
"Why?"
"There's no why. Otherwise, he won't take the case.
The reason they appointed him as Vice President of the Maternal and Child Health Hospital is precisely because his skills in this area are outstanding."
"One skill can take you far. Currently, in our provincial capital, only Yan Shiliang can handle this," the doctor added.
"Then let's go there. I really don't want a knife to my belly," Li Minxi said, looking at the doctor and then at Guo Xuyang.
"If you plan to go to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital, you should go soon.
I see that the umbilical cord entanglement is quite severe," the doctor advised.
"Is this Yan Shiliang really that amazing?" Li Minxi still seemed a bit skeptical.
"Yes. He has handled cases more severe than yours, even some where the fetus was entangled four times around the neck. He can manage to untangle it."
"What if I go to him to correct the fetal position but don't plan to deliver there?"
"Actually, for you mothers, it doesn't matter where you give birth.
If he corrects the position and you don't plan to deliver at his hospital, he can't do anything about it.
However, as far as I know, he usually makes you sign an agreement before correcting the position, to prevent you from delivering at another hospital," the doctor explained.
"What the doctor said is right. If you don't plan to deliver there, you'll have to pay him ten times the hospitalization fee," Li Xiaolu chimed in.
"There's such a thing?"
"Yes. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the pride of the Maternal and Child Health Hospital," the doctor stated.
"He has some bad habits. You mentioned earlier that this young lady used to work at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital, she should know," he continued.
"What's the situation?" Li Minxi asked, glancing at Li Xiaolu.
"Lecherous old man. At the Maternal and Child Health Hospital, practically any pretty young girl hasn't escaped his clutches."
"Someone like that can be a Vice President?" Li Minxi found it quite unbelievable.
"It's because he possesses this skill, which brings revenue to the hospital," Li Xiaolu explained.
"If the mothers knew, who would dare give birth there?"
"He's not interested in those mothers. He only fancies the newly assigned young girls. That's his preference."
"He's a complete scumbag then."
"It can't be helped, who else has such a skill? This is truly a case of one skill being enough to conquer the world."
"Did you leave because of this?" Li Minxi asked Li Xiaolu.
"That was one of the reasons. More importantly, Yang Zi offered us better salary and benefits than our previous unit."
"Then shall we go and have a look? If he dares to lay a hand on me, I'll castrate him," Li Minxi declared assertively.
"You're in this condition, he won't be interested in you," Guo Xuyang said from the side.
"What's wrong with my condition? It's still your doing," she retorted.
"You look very majestic, like a general," Guo Xuyang quickly said.
"That's more like it. Hmph." Li Minxi huffed and walked out.
Guo Xuyang quickly bid farewell to the doctor and followed her.
Li Xiaolu sighed. With such a boss, she could only stay as far away as possible.
