Chapter 397 - Will He Still Believe My Words?
Su Jin was dumbfounded when she heard Xie Ming's words stating all the major developmental signs from which autism can be diagnosed.
She didn't expect that Xie Ming would know about this and was assuming that she was just trying to create trouble.
Seeing the confidence on Xie Ming's face, she felt slightly uncomfortable.
" Mrs. Jin, are you sure that the child has autism?" Su Jin looked at Xie Ming questioningly as she wanted to confirm if she was sure about this.
Xie Ming looked at Su Jin, who was looking startled and slightly puzzled.
She pursed her lips and said," Yes. I am sure that the boy has autism. At first, it was just my gut feeling but when I saw him walking abnormally and the way he flinched whenever his father scolded him, my assumption started to get stronger."
" Even though his reactions were not too loud, I could see the slight changes in him. After I checked his pulse and eyes in the lobby today, I am sure that he is autistic. "
" Though he is only at the initial stage at this moment, if he didn't receive the treatment on time, his condition would only worsen because of his father's rude behavior and later on he won't be able to get the treatment. " Xie Ming felt that since Su Jin was going to check on the boy, she needed to tell her what she thought about him.
She was adamant to get the boy treatment before it gets too late. Because he can get well if he received the right treatment in the initial stage but if this gets delayed and his condition worsens, then his condition will not improve.
Because there is no definite treatment for autism yet. Autistic children can get therapies and psychological help to control their emotions and many children get better as they grow old.
Su Jin looked at Xie Ming with a shocked expression as she opened her mouth to aya something but no words came out.
" Ahem…Doctor Lu Feng, I am going to check on the boy. But I can't tell you today if he has autism or not. I need to run a few tests on him and have to see his behavioral changes for a few days to make sure if Mrs. Jin's assumption is right or not." Su Jin turned towards Lu Feng avoiding eye contact with Xie Ming.
She understood that Xie Ming looks confident, so there must be a reason for it. She is not stupid either.
Seeing Xie Ming, she could say that there must be a reason behind her confidence.
And not only that, Xie Ming told her everything, even the symptoms of autism in children that she has noticed.
Now she doesn't want to waste any more time and wants to see if Xie Ming's assumption is right or not.
If Xie Ming's diagnosis is right then she has to acknowledge her skills because autism is not easy to diagnose.
Doctors need to see the behavioral changes in a child for a few days and have to run a few tests to make sure that their diagnosis is right.
But if Xie Ming has made this assumption after seeing the boy only two times, then she is a genius.
Lu Feng was surprised when Su Jin told him that she will check on the boy and will tell him about the report later.
" Ah, okay. You can go now."
Su Jin looked at Xie Ming before leaving the room. She pursed her lips and didn't say anything and left the room.
….
When Su Jin left the room, Xie Ming stared at her back.
' Phew. I need to do something about this, otherwise, people will always question my abilities if I don't have any degree with me.'
' Wait.' Xie Ming turned to look at Liwie remembering that he was in the room all along.
He didn't say anything so she forgot for a minute that he was there as well.
She rubbed her hair as she was worried that Liwei might not believe in her words.
She explained that she learned acupuncture from her master abroad but observing autism in a child doesn't come from learning but experience.
' Will he still believe my words, if I tell him that I learned everything from my master who lived abroad?'
However, to her surprise, he didn't ask anything and drank the coffee which was served earlier.
All this time, he didn't say anything and just watched how Xie Ming was able to change Su Jin' s mind before she could leave this room.
" Mrs. Jin, you don't need to worry about that boy anymore. Now since Doctor Su Jin has agreed to check him, then he will be fine."
" Doctor Su Jin is the most popular and skilled doctor when it comes to these cases. Also, I hope you won't mind her attitude. Her personality is quite complex but she is a good doctor. " he spoke on behalf of Su Jin because he doesn't want Xie Ming to think anything wrong.
" It's okay. I won't mind. After all, she was right to doubt my capability since I don't have any degree. " Xie Ming smiled mildly.
Lu Feng pursed his lips and didn't say anything. He wanted to ask her questions about it but this is not the right time.
Seeing her expressions, he can see that she won't tell him about it, so he didn't probe further.
" Then, Lu Feng, we should go. I am sorry that we have wasted so much of your time." Liwei said as they prepared to leave.
" Wait a minute. Mr. Liwei, please don't forget about our conversation earlier. You have to come to Lu Mansion for dinner tonight. I will send you the address via message, so do come. " Lu Feng said with a smile as he invited them.
He has already taken Liwei's message because he wants to keep in touch with them. He liked Xie Ming's personality.
Though it would not be a good idea to take her number in front of Liwei, so he exchanged numbers with Liwei.
Xie Ming almost forgot about this because of Su Jin's matter. They almost forgot that they were talking about this before Su Jin came in.
" Okay. We will come. " Liwie said as he smiled at Lu Feng.
He has heard so much about the Lu Family but it was his first time meeting someone from Lu Family.
He has heard that Old Lu's eldest son has one son and one daughter. The daughter is a soldier like her father and the son became a doctor because he doesn't want to get into the military.
Liwei could see the aura in him and how determined he was to serve his country. The only difference is, he was not on the border but in the hospital. In any way, they are serving the country.
Liwei and Xie Ming left the hospital after they agreed to Lu Feng's request.
