Waiting, filled with anxiety and unease...
This was Shen Xiaoman's fourth day after the surgery, and they were waiting for the results of the pathological examination. If the tumor was benign, it would just be an ordinary uterine fibroid, and she could fully recover after the surgery. There would be no significant impact on her future life. If it was malignant, meaning uterine cancer, the subsequent surgeries might involve removing the uterus. If it was early-stage uterine cancer, there would still be hope for salvage. If it was late-stage with the cancer cells having spread, then she was virtually at the end of her life. Thus, the result of this examination was tantamount to a verdict on life, directly determining how much longer Shen Xiaoman had to live!
