Chapter 118: The examination confirmed that Zheng Tian has bipolar disorder.
"Your eyes don't have any major issues, just some superficial wounds. However, do not let them get wet for the time being, and just come over to change the dressing every three days," the doctor said after finishing the bandaging.
"Okay, thank you, Doctor."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng breathed a sigh of relief; after all, she had been worried about her eyes having problems.
"Actually, I can understand your feelings as a mother, but your son's current emotions are quite volatile. You must be cautious, cautious, and even more cautious in your method of communication."
What else could Mrs. Zheng say at this point? She could only nod to indicate she understood.
After leaving the doctor, Mrs. Zheng sat on a nearby chair and sighed helplessly. What kind of situation was this? She had never needed bandaging in her entire life, yet the first time she was bandaged, it was because of her own son—the eldest son she regarded as her life.
However, even so, Mrs. Zheng would still take care of Zheng Tian wholeheartedly, because in her heart, this son was more important than her own life.
The next morning, Mrs. Zheng took Zheng Tian for an examination. Because this was described as a follow-up, Zheng Tian's mood was relatively stable, and he didn't think there were any major issues.
When hospitalized, examinations are basically arranged in advance by the Nurse, and you only need to arrive at the designated time.
In order not to arouse Zheng Tian's suspicion, the Hospital specifically arranged some other tests, such as blood draws and CT scans.
If Zheng Tian had a medical background, he would have been surprised to find that many of these tests were not really relevant to his current condition.
About an hour and a half later, all the examinations were officially concluded.
Back in the ward, Zheng Tian was lying on the bed looking at his phone.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zheng breathed a sigh of relief; her son shouldn't have discovered any problems, otherwise, he definitely wouldn't be reacting this way.
At this moment, a message suddenly popped up on Mrs. Zheng's phone. It was sent by the doctor, saying that the EEG results were out and asking Mrs. Zheng to come over immediately.
Seeing the doctor was so urgent, Mrs. Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
The reason was simple: if there were no major issues, the doctor could just say so on the phone; there was absolutely no need for her to rush over. Therefore, she had a bad premonition.
After finding a random excuse, Mrs. Zheng headed to the doctor's office. This doctor was from the psychology department, so she had to walk a bit further.
A few minutes later, she successfully arrived at the doctor's office, knocked on the door, and after hearing the voice inside telling her to enter, Mrs. Zheng pushed the door open and walked in.
"Hello, Doctor, is there a problem?"
Mrs. Zheng was very anxious and asked directly after entering.
Upon hearing this, the doctor signaled for her not to worry and to sit down first.
"Doctor, did something go wrong with my son's examination? Please rest assured, I am mentally prepared. You can just tell me."
Hearing this, the doctor first looked at the examination results in hand, then coughed.
"The examination results are indeed out. Before I say anything, you must be mentally prepared. According to his EEG, he is suffering from severe bipolar disorder."
Although Mrs. Zheng had said she was mentally prepared, the moment the other party actually said those words, she felt as if the sky had collapsed.
After suspecting her son had emotional problems, she had searched online for many psychological illnesses.
Bipolar disorder was among those illnesses. She knew very well how serious this disease was.
After contracting this illness, a person cannot control their emotions; they will fly into rages for no reason, have breakdowns for no reason, and even develop certain distortions in their personality. If it continues to develop further, it is very likely to turn into an extreme personality.
"Is it really that certain?"
"Currently, looking at the examination results, it is indeed bipolar disorder. Please trust our medical standards. Currently, through this examination, it has almost been determined that your son has bipolar disorder. If it is left to develop like this, I am afraid the subsequent consequences will be terrifying. Therefore, we are more inclined toward intervention therapy."
With the progress of medical care, coupled with the continuous popularization of knowledge in society, everyone actually understands that mental illness is not just being pretentious, but a real disease.
Therefore, drug treatment has gradually begun to enter into the treatment of such mental illnesses, and has even become the primary treatment method. As for the so-called talk therapy with the doctor, it is actually just an auxiliary effect.
"But given my son's current emotions, I feel that this matter cannot be let him know. Otherwise, once his emotions spiral out of control, it will be very troublesome."
Mrs. Zheng's bandaged face already proved how terrifying the consequences would be if he found out about this.
If he could do this to his own mother, let alone others—those Nurses and doctors would likely be beaten to death by him.
What's important is that even if he were to beat someone to death, he has a mental illness, so he would not need to face the death penalty, which would mean their deaths would be in vain.
"Please rest assured about this. We will communicate with several other doctors, and we will come up with a more specific treatment plan. This is a quite serious disease, and its treatment cycle will be relatively long. One week is absolutely not enough, so we might consider keeping him in the Hospital for a longer period. However, we need to find a suitable reason for this."
This is also what the doctor is currently worried about.
Given his current situation, if you tell him he has a mental illness, he will definitely go berserk. But if he leaves the Hospital, given his current mental state, if something were to actually happen, these doctors would all need to bear responsibility. This is not a situation they want to see.
Therefore, the doctor is really having a headache about this matter and cannot think of a good reason to keep him for a longer period.
"Then can we say he has some stomach-related illness? That he needs hospitalization? After all, his digestive system has never been very good since he was a child. I think we can consider using this reason. Anyway, as long as he knows about it, that's enough."
"That seems to sound okay. In that case, we will discuss it more and deliberate. Come back again this afternoon, and we will provide you with a more detailed treatment plan."
"Okay, you also need to communicate with the other doctors, especially the Nurses. Don't let anything slip."
"Please rest assured; such a situation will definitely not happen. Our doctors and Nurses are very professional."
After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After leaving the doctor's office, Mrs. Zheng sighed. They hadn't even been discharged yet, and now her son had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
This made her really feel like she was on the verge of a breakdown. The most important thing was that she didn't know who she should tell about these things.
Her past friends had long since cut ties and stayed away after these things happened to their family.
Her husband was still in Prison, sentenced to 13 years, and her second son hated their whole family to the bone, wishing he could kill them directly.
So now, she could truly be said to be isolated and helpless. No matter what happened, she could only persevere on her own.
After sitting on the chair for nearly 20 minutes, Mrs. Zheng forced herself to pull it together, stood up from the chair, and walked toward the ward.
After returning to the ward, Zheng Tian looked at her.
"Mom, how are my examination results?"
"You don't have any major issues right now, but when they drew blood, they found that your stomach seems to have a bit of a problem. So, you might need to recuperate your stomach. I've communicated with the doctor to see if we can stay in the Hospital for a longer period to get your stomach recovered before we go back."
The reason had already been decided upon when she arrived. Upon hearing this, Zheng Tian frowned; he really didn't want to stay in this Hospital for even one more day.
"Son, listen to me. Stomach problems are not small issues. If we go home and can't take care of it properly, we'll just have to come back again. Anyway, it's just the two of us at home, and it's just the two of us here, so let's just stay here for a while longer."
Perhaps because he had hit Mrs. Zheng yesterday, Zheng Tian felt guilty at this moment and just nodded, agreeing to it.
However, in this world, there are always people who can find out any information they want to know through various channels, such as Zheng Jie.
"Boss, I just received news from the Hospital. Zheng Tian has been diagnosed with severe bipolar disorder, and he even hit his mother yesterday. Currently, his mother's eye has required three stitches."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Jie looked up subconsciously, his expression full of surprise.
"Mental problems?"
"Yes. Currently, it seems his emotions have fallen into a state of collapse. After all, now that he has become a eunuch, it is quite normal for him to have emotional problems."
"Alright, I understand."
People with mental problems are truly capable of doing anything, so at this moment, Zheng Jie decisively dialed Old Li's number.
"Increase the number of bodyguards around me for this period."
Strictly speaking, Old Li had definitely been promoted. Although he was nominally still doing driving and bodyguarding duties, he now had a professional bodyguard team under him, and this team was responsible for Zheng Jie's safety.
"Boss, I understand. Rest assured."
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Jie sat in his chair with a calm expression. He was very satisfied with the current situation.
The next step was to watch when this guy would lose control of his emotions and commit other illegal or criminal acts. As long as he did that, he could completely keep watch and kill the guy directly.
In this way, he could finally be completely at ease.
At this moment, the secretary walked in from outside. They needed to make a trip to the Zhou Family, as they now needed to discuss the specific wedding date.
The Zhou Family attached great importance to this matter, and both sides had already communicated about several good dates via phone.
These dates had been calculated by masters and were said to be auspicious days. Although this is a technological society and everyone knows these are feudal superstitions, for wealthy people like them, they actually quite like to look for a good omen.
The reason is simple: just as no one would choose to get married during the Qingming Festival, everyone picks an auspicious day to feel a little more at ease.
When entering the Zhou Family, everyone from the Zhou Family was there.
Upon seeing Zheng Jie arrive, Zhou Ya stood up proactively and helped him take the clothes in his hands.
"Uncle Zhou, Elder Zhou."
In the past, the forms of address were Chairman Zhou or others, but the situation was different now, so the forms of address naturally had to change accordingly.
"Come, Zheng Jie, sit down."
Zhou Ya accompanied Zheng Jie to sit on the sofa next to them. This was normal, after all, the two of them were about to become one family.
"Actually, I don't have any problems with these few dates; after all, they are all very good days. The main thing is to listen to Zhou Ya's opinion. Whatever day Zhou Ya thinks is suitable, that's the day."
Zheng Jie was not too picky about dates; he felt any of them were fine.
And honestly, he wasn't particularly concerned about the wedding itself; after all, it was just a business marriage.
"Actually, I think this date in December seems pretty good."
Zhou Ya's idea was to finalize this matter before the Chinese New Year this year to avoid any complications.
"If it's December, will it be a bit cold? If we confirm December, I think we can hold the wedding in Hawaii. That place is relatively warm, and the scenery is quite good."
Zheng Jie looked at Zhou Ya at this moment, his tone full of curiosity.
"But you are so busy, will it..."
Although he didn't attach much importance to this wedding, Zheng Jie knew very well how to speak to make the other person feel valued.
"No matter how big the matter is, it is not as important as this. No matter how busy the schedule is, it must make way for this matter."
Upon hearing this, the expression on Zhou Ya's face became visibly happier. After all, through her contact with him over this period, she felt that he was a very good person. If they were dating normally, she would be willing, let alone this being a business marriage.
"Then let's pick this day?"
Zheng Jie nodded.
"Then... Elder Zhou, Uncle Zhou, what do you two think?"
The two of them looked at each other and then said with a smile, "We think we will listen to you two."
