7 Choose A Good-looking Artificial Limb For Yourself

Shen Lin sounded cold and impatient. "Stop talking nonsense. Let me see how much you can move your arm."

"Oh, okay." Chen Xie's original playful expression disappeared. After all, this person was his attending physician. The extent to which his arm could recover depended on Shen Lin, so Chen Xie didn't dare to say anything more.

So what if Shen Lin scolded him?

Chen Xie respectfully wanted to raise his arm for the other party to see, but his entire arm was in a thick cast, and he really couldn't exert any strength.

Shen Lin reminded him. "Stand up straight and try again."

The nurse beside Chen Xie wanted to help him, but he refused. Instead, he turned to the silent Zhou Xia.

"What are you doing? How can you be so insensible? Is this how you act as a girlfriend?"

Zhou Xia's nerves were triggered. She looked at Shen Lin subconsciously. She had yet to explain that she had nothing to do with Chen Xie anymore.

Before she could speak, Chen Xie suddenly howled, "Ah! Gentler, gentler! Ahhh!"

Chen Xie looked at Shen Lin's hand that was pressing on his arm with a pained expression. "Doctor Shen, please be gentler."

"If he doesn't recover well, his arm might be paralyzed in the future." Shen Lin was still expressionless. He sounded serious. "Help him move around."

The nurse beside him nodded. "Understood."

Chen Xie's face paled when he heard that his arm mobility might be impaired in the future. His attitude softened. "Xiaxia, can we not break up? Can you stay in the hospital and help me recover? I'm too scared to be alone. I don't need you and uncle to compensate me. You just need to cover my medical expenses. Can you?"

Zhou Xia snorted. "You're a man in your twenties. Why are you hesitating like a woman?"

She didn't want to waste any more time with the other party. She always liked to end things quickly. "Chen Xie, I've made it clear that we no longer have any relationship. I'm here today to tell you that if you insist on looking for trouble, then I'll accompany you to the end!"

With that, Zhou Xia shot a glance at Chen Xie, turned around, and left without any mercy.

Chen Xie's expression darkened even more. He stared at Zhou Xia's back as she left and gritted his teeth.

"What's wrong? Do you really want to get artificial limbs?"

Chen Xie jumped in shock. "Doctor Shen, aren't you being a little nosy? The conflict between me and my girlfriend is none of your business, isn't it?"

Shen Lin glanced at the nurse indifferently. The nurse understood and left.

Chen Xie was inexplicably nervous. He couldn't help but swallow.

On the other hand, Shen Lin's expression was calm. He said slowly, "What if the Commission for Discipline Inspection finds out about the things you took out from your pocket when you were in the hospital, Mr. Chen?"

Chen Xie was stunned. When he was sent to Huachen's emergency room by ambulance, Shen Lin was the doctor on duty in the orthopedics department.

At the time, Chen Xie had a fracture in his radius. He had been in so much pain that he had been gritting his teeth and screaming. If anyone had touched him, he would have wailed hysterically.

"I'll do it," Shen Lin suddenly said. He took the scissors from the nurse and cut open Chen Xie's shirt. He was quick, accurate, and ruthless. He did not give Chen Xie a chance to scream. He put on the cast.

Chen Xie had been so focused on crying out in pain that he didn't notice the destroyed shirt. As for the receipts from the massage parlor in his shirt pocket, he had completely forgotten about them.

"I went to relax with a few good friends. What's wrong with that? Is that illegal?" Chen Xie asked as he straightened his neck.

"It's none of my business who you go with." Shen Lin's face was cold. His voice was cold. "If you dare to harass Zhou Xia again, I'll buy you a pair of artificial limbs at my own expense. You can forget about having a good arm."

Chen Xie didn't react for a moment. "Who are you? Why do you care about our business? What's Zhou Xia's relationship with you? What? Do you like her too?"

"I'm her husband."

Chen Xie was utterly dumbfounded. His expression looked as if he had been struck by lightning. "Are you kidding me? We only broke up a few days ago, ah!"

"Yes, we just got married," Shen Lin explained briefly. He took out the red booklet from his pocket and opened it. He placed it in front of the other party.

Chen Xie still couldn't believe it. "Are you kidding? Don't you know that it's illegal to forge certificates?"

Shen Lin sneered. "If you're so law-abiding, why did you bribe people?"

Chen Xie was greatly startled by the other party's words, and his forced display of toughness was also disrupted.

Shen Lin behaved as though the aggressiveness earlier was merely an illusion. He acted as if nothing happened. He told Zhou Xia a few things that he needed to pay attention to once he recovered. Then, he added another sentence.

"If you have the time to mess around, why don't you go online to look at the models of artificial limbs and choose a style you like?"

Chen Xie was so frightened by his words that his head was covered in a cold sweat.
