âLittle Yueyao, do you know, Mommy doesnât want to miss out on a single moment of your life.â
Hearing these words, Hua Jin was somewhat shaken.
He suddenly stood up and instructed the nanny to take good care of Yun Shishi. He then walked to Mu Yazheâs side and gently patted his shoulder, pointing to the door to indicate that he wanted to speak in private.
Mu Yazhe nodded, got up, and walked out of the room with him.
As though afraid that Yun Shishi might overhear their conversation, Hua Jin stopped only when he was out on the balcony. Mu Yazhe followed over and asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
He asked, âShishiâs eyes... Would you be able to find a suitable donor?â
Noting how anxious he seemed, Mu Yazhe realized this matter had been bothering him for a long time. He replied, âDonât worry.â
âHow could I not worry? There has been no news for so long, and thereâs no suitable source of donors.â
âIâm waiting, too.â
âWhat if one doesnât come along?â
Hua Jin grew increasingly anxious. âNow even a hope to see Yueyao is an extravagance! My heart aches to see it, so I hope that she can undergo surgery as soon as possible.â
Mu Yazhe frowned, but there was a long silence.
Seeing his silence, Hua Jin thought that he was also worried about this matter. He felt compelled to add, âIf we really canât find a donor... use... mine...?â
The moment he said that, Mu Yazhe was stunned. âYours?â
âUh huh!â
Hua Jin nodded his head heavily and immediately explained, âBrother-in-law, donât worry. Iâm willing! If Shishi can regain her sight, Iâm willing to pay the price of my corneas! Also, donât worry that Iâll lose my sight. Iâve asked the doctor, and he said that even one cornea is fine.â
âNo way!â
Mu Yazhe thought it was ridiculous. He did not expect this fellow to have gone as far as to bring this up to the doctor. He was not merely saying it.
Hua Jin retorted, âWhy not?â
He said, âDidnât the doctor tell you that the cornea of the living may not be removed?â
Hua Jin was stunned.
He really hadnât given too much thought. He had only asked the doctor if it was possible to operate on just one eye if there was a cornea, and the doctorâs answer was yes. Hence he figured that if there really wasnât a donor source, heâd trade his eyes for hers.
âBrother-in-law, we should be able to do this through connections, right? I can sign the agreement. If itâs voluntary, there wonât be any dispute.â
âAre you crazy?!â
Mu Yazhe reprimanded him, âIf she found out that she was using your cornea, what would she think?â
âOf course we canât tell her!â
âBrother-in-law, I promised Shishi that Iâll be her eyes if she really were to lose her sight one day!â he declared resolutely.
The man cut him off. âNo, no means no.â
âBrother-in-law!â
Hua Jin was getting agitated. âIf I had known youâd disagree, then I wouldnât have told you.â
âI have a donor source,â Mu Yazhe suddenly interrupted him.
Hua Jin was stunned. âWhat?â
âI have a donor source!â
Naturally, Hua Jin did not believe his words.. He thought that he was just being perfunctory. Instead, he asked, âSince there is, why havenât you prepared for a transplant? Besides, since you have a donor source and the cornea is viable for only 48 hours out of the human body, you are obviously just being perfunctory!â
