Sheng Tang straightened her body and wanted to understand the pros and cons.
Doctor Sun adjusted his glasses: "The downside of the first plan is the use of dication. The dication will have so negative effects on Ting’s body.
This kind of dication is highly stimulating, causing significant discomfort and increasing the burden on the kidneys, potentially leading to so inhumane..."
At this point, the expressions of those sitting in the living room, except for Sheng Tang, changed slightly.
Gu Shiting was the first to reject it.
He still wanted to marry Sheng Tang and have children. If he couldn’t be humane, he’d rather live in fear of the dark for the rest of his life.
His family’s wealth could create a greenhouse for him; being afraid of the dark was manageable.
After Doctor Sun finished speaking, no one responded.
Sheng Tang spoke up, "What are the advantages of the first plan?"
Doctor Sun smiled: "If it goes well, a treatnt cycle of twenty days can cure him. It’s a potent dicine and one of the most effective thods."
Generally, potent dicine treats lingering ailnts.
In ancient Chinese dicine, only highly skilled doctors dared to use potent dicine.
The effects were also imdiate.
After Sheng Tang asked, she fell silent, knowing she had no right to decide for Gu Shiting.
If it were her, she would probably choose the first option. Gu Shiting’s fear of darkness was very different from his social anxiety.
His fear of darkness had beco a physical problem, and ordinary consolatory treatnt wouldn’t work. It’s like having cancer and trying to cure it with soul purification thods; it wouldn’t work.
Physical illnesses must be treated with effective dication.
As for his social anxiety, it hadn’t beco that severe; it was currently just a psychological issue.
Thus, during this ti, with Sheng Tang’s company, his social anxiety had significantly improved, but his fear of the dark had made no progress.
"What about the second option?" Mrs. Gu asked again.
Doctor Sun laughed: "The downside of the second option is that the treatnt duration is long, and the effects are minimal, potentially having no noticeable impact. The advantage is that it has no side effects."
The second plan wouldn’t make Gu Shiting worse, but the chances of improvent were tentative at best.
The living room fell silent for a mont.
Finally, Gu Shiting spoke: "I don’t want to take dication!"
He heard the implications of "not being humane."
If he couldn’t make Tangtang happy in the future, what was the point of treatnt? He would still lose her.
He couldn’t accept such a side effect.
Doctor Sun was very polite, but the underlying aning was that there was an eighty percent chance.
Mr. Gu looked at his wife, then at Doctor Sun and Sheng Tang. After hesitating for a few seconds, he responded to Gu Shiting, "Let’s go with the second option.
Tangtang will be here for the winter break, and Ting can try half an hour each day. If there’s no progress after the winter break, we’ll think of sothing else."
Then he looked at Sheng Tang, "What do you think, Tangtang?"
"You’ve given it thorough thought, uncle," Sheng Tang said.
What else could she say?
What she thought of, the Gu Family could also think of. And it’s been ten years; were there really no dications to treat Gu Shiting?
It was rely a risk they couldn’t bear.
Family always considers the future, and since Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting weren’t that close, she dared to suggest "potent dicine."
If it were truly her own son, how could she be so ruthless?
And she was just considering it; if she genuinely had to suggest the first option for Gu Shiting, she wouldn’t bear it either.
Sheng Tang was harsh on herself but very kind to others.
Gu Shiting gently exhaled.
He looked at his mother again.
Mrs. Gu was now sowhat hesitant.
The new drug was developed only in November this year, had just passed clinical trials, and hadn’t been formally marketed.
Doctor Sun, also from that research institute, had inford Mrs. Gu of the good news as soon as he knew.
At that ti, Mrs. Gu considered having her son try it.
She thought, he couldn’t live like this forever.
"Ting, don’t you want to reconsider?" Mrs. Gu asked.
Her words made Gu Shiting’s heart skip a beat.
