Bai Lihua examined Guo Guo's body. Due to his weak immune system, he was a lot more fragile than Tang Tang. They didn't know it now, but this difference would become even more apparent as the two boys grew older. And, because of this difference, the two boys were destined to walk very different paths.
Before the Fei Tian Awards was to be held, Tangning officially started filming 'Survivor'. Previously, when Guo Guo was sick, it wasn't that serious; it was just a normal fever and flu. But, one afternoon, Bai Lihua began to feel that something wasn't right. So, she immediately gave Mo Ting a phone call while he was working.
"We need to send Guo Guo straight to the hospital. Something doesn't seem right."
Mo Ting immediately dropped everything and hurried home. He also instructed Lu Che to contact the most authoritative specialist.
After arriving at the hospital, Guo Guo immediately had a full body check up. In the end, the results confirmed that Guo Guo's lungs did not develop properly and needed long term treatment. On top of that, he needed to be protected. Problems with the lungs were serious. If they weren't careful, he could even die at a young age!
"Mr. Mo, feel free to contact our paediatric specialist, Doctor Tan. She specializes in the treatment of children. Unfortunately, she is currently overseas and will return in a few days."
Mo Ting looked sadly at Guo Guo who had just fallen asleep after much difficulty.
Bai Lihua answered a few of the head nurse's questions before she asked Mo Ting, "Should we tell Xiao Ning?"
"I will personally tell her after 'Survivor' finishes filming," Mo Ting replied. He knew that if he was to tell Tangning right now, she would give up everything and and return home to take care of Guo Guo.
"Good," Bai Lihua nodded. "Wait until Guo Guo stabilizes a little and we get an update on his condition."
This time, Guo Guo ended up having a fever for 2 days. This was when the highly-qualified Doctor Tan finally returned to China. After hearing about Guo Guo's condition, she immediately rushed to the hospital without even unpacking her clothes.
She was very young at just 28-years-old, but, she often appeared on the front cover of medical magazines and had won many awards.
She liked children, so she majored in paediatrics during her studies in the US. After returning to China, she placed her focus on the research of rare childhood disorders.
"Guo Guo's condition isn't as serious as it looks, but he needs to come for regular checkups at the hospital."
"We understand, Doctor Tan," Bai Lihua replied.
"Where's the child's mother?" Tan Suling turned and asked Bai Lihua.
"Xiao Ning doesn't know about this yet..."
Although Tan Suling didn't pay attention to entertainment news, she was still aware of Tangning's gossip, so she nodded her head, "I know that your entire family is in the public eye. But, I suggest that the mother can bring the child here next time."
"OK," Bai Lihua nodded.
Afterwards, Mo Ting carried Guo Guo out of the hospital. Of course, not many people knew about this.
"I must say that half-cast girls are pretty." Although Bai Lihua knew it wasn't the right time to mention this, but she couldn't help but sigh after seeing Tan Suling's face. "She's even a doctor. Not bad. If I had another son, I would make him pursue her."
Mo Ting did not reply as he held onto the sleeping Guo Guo. It was unclear what the head of the family was currently thinking about.
Bai Lihua roughly guessed what he was thinking and said, "I know what you're thinking. You're worried that Xiao Ning will be worried and you're afraid that she'd give up on living her own life because of Guo Guo."
"I'm not just worried. I know she will definitely do that."
"But, you shouldn't keep it a secret from Xiao Ning for too long. She is Guo Guo's mother. How could a mother be kept in the dark about her own child? Plus, Xiao Ning is a very observant person. As soon as she returns home, she will definitely realize that there is something odd about Guo Guo."
"After she finishes filming, I will definitely tell her," Mo Ting insisted. "She's already sacrificed enough for me."
