Ji Zixuan had already gone to get his car, and Ji Ziâang stood in front of Zhang Kun, âDad, donât be stubborn. Letâs go to the hospital now.â
Zhang Kun saw that everyone was trying to persuade him, so it would seem hypocritical if he refused.
He stood up from his seat and whispered, âThen Iâm really sorry about today.â âWeâre family.â Said Father Huang.
Ji Ziâang and Ji Yuanyuan quickly helped Zhang Kun out.
Li Xu said a few more polite words to the Huang family before taking the things and chasing after them.
After getting into the car, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Ji Zixuan and whispered, âLet1: go to the First Hospital.â
âAlright.â Ji Zixuan nodded.
The First Hospital was an affiliated hospital of B University. Its medical standards were considered to be among the best among the hospitals in B City. Besides, one of Ji Yuanyuanâs teachers was a doctor from the First Hospital. Ji Yuanyuanâs grades were good, and she had a good relationship with this teacher.
If there was really something they need, she might be able to find this teacher and use their connections.
Of course, Ji Yuanyuan also hoped it was just a false alarm.
The hotel wasnât far from the hospital, and they soon arrived at their destination.
Ji Zixuan went to park the car while Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Ziâang helped Zhang Kun to the registration room.
After the consultation, Zhang Kun was asked to do a detailed examination.
Ji Yuanyuanâs heart skipped a beat when she saw the items being checked.
Ji Zixuan probably noticed Ji Yuanyuanâs pale expression, so while Zhang Kun was doing his checkup, he asked softly, âHow is it? Is it a big problem?â Ji Yuanyuan noticed that Li Xu and Ji Ziâang were not paying attention to them, so she whispered, âIt seems that the problem is a little serious.â
Ji Zixuan was stunned when he heard that.
His hand trembled slightly. He choked for a while before he asked hoarsely, âThen⦠Will he be alright?â
Ji Yuanyuanâs mood was heavy as well. She shook her head, âI donât know.â
They still had to look at the results of the examination to know.
Seeing this, Ji Zixuan did not say anything else. He stood where he was and silently waited for Zhang Kun to come out.
After the examination, Ji Yuanyuan eagerly took the scans.
Ji Zi ang stepped forward nervously and asked, âHow is it? Whatâs the problem?â
After Ji Ziâang asked this, the entire familyâs eyes were focused on Ji Yuanyuanâs face.
Ji Yuanyuanâs eyes reddened. She could not understand what was going on, but she could vaguely tell what the problem was.
However, she did not dare to make a conclusion and only said, âLetâs go to the doctor.â
Seeing Ji Yuanyuanâs expression, everyone present understood.
Zhang Kunâs illness was probably not simple.
âSimply put, itâs liver cancer.â The doctor said concisely after looking at the scan.
With a plop, Li Xu fell against the wall. âWhat? Cancer? Cancer?â
Ji Ziâang was also shocked, âLiver cancer? Doctor, did you see it wrongly? Take
a good look at him. Dad has always been very healthy.â
Ji Zixuan stood rooted to the ground and looked at Zhang Kun, unable to react for a moment.
Zhang Kun did not seem to have expected this outcome. He looked at the doctor blankly without any expression on his face.
Only Ji Yuanyuan remained calm.
She knew that liver cancer was not a terminal illness, nor was it incurable.
â Doctor, howâs the situation now? Can surgery cure it? Or do you need a liver transplant?â
After Ji Yuanyuan asked this question, the others seemed to have seen hope and stared at the doctor.
âItâs hard to say for now.â The doctor said. âMy suggestion is that the patient should first go through the hospitalization procedures and then do a more detailed examination. When the results of the examination are out, the other doctors and I will analyze the patientâs condition. Only then will we be able to come to a conclusion as to whether it is a simple surgery or a liver transplant?â Li Xu had already regained her composure. Hearing this, she immediately said, âAlright, then letâs be hospitalized. Weâll go and settle the hospitalization procedures now.â
She looked at him helplessly.
âAlright,â Ji Zixuan immediately said. âIâll go settle the procedures.â
The procedures were completed very quickly. He was assigned in a single room.
The family was transferred from the Outpatient Department to the Inpatient Department.
Everything happened too suddenly, and the family was a little stunned.
It was only when he entered the ward that he regained his senses.
He reached out and grabbed Zhang Kunâs hands, saying, âDad, donât worry. If you need a liver transplant, Iâll cut out my liver for you.â
Zhang Kun was so touched by his words that his eyes turned red, âSilly child, what are you saying?!â
âI didnât say anything stupid.â He sniffed. âIâm telling the truth.â
Ji Yuanyuan sat on a stool beside him, holding Zhang Kunâs examination report in her hand.
She did not remind him that even if he needed a liver transplant in the end, not just anyoneâs liver could do it.
They needed to be matched, and the transplant could only be carried out if the match was suitable.
Li Xu finally managed to calm down. She raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eyes and looked at Ji Zixuan, âZixuan, drive home and get some clothes for your Dad. Also, apologize to Weiweiâs family on my behalf. The engagement might have to be pushed back.â
âMom, you donât have to do this. Weiwei will understand.â Ji Zixuan whispered.
After saying that, he took the car keys and turned to leave.
Li Xu then looked at Ji Ziâang and Ji Yuanyuan, âYou two donât have to stay here anymore. Go do what you need to do.â
Ji Ziâang wanted to say something, but Li Xu did not give him the chance to speak, âThe checkup is scheduled for tomorrow. Thereâs no point in you guys standing here today.â
Although Zhang Kun was nervous, he still pretended to be free and easy when he saw the children worried about him, âYou donât have to worry about me. The doctor said that it was discovered early. Fortunately, I was discovered early. Maybe he could just perform minor surgery and remove the cancerous part!â He said it casually, but before the results were out, no one felt good.
Ji Ziâang wanted to say something more, but Ji Yuanyuan tugged at the corner of his shirt and looked at Li Xu and Zhang Kun, âDad, Mom, weâll go home first. Donât go out tonight. Iâll bring you food.â
Although Ji Ziâang was a little unwilling, he was still dragged out of the ward by Ji Yuanyuan.
âIf we stay here, Mom and Dad can only hold on so that we donât worry. Only when we leave will they be able to have a heart-to-heart conversation.â At the door of the ward, Ji Yuanyuan explained to Ji Ziâang in a low voice.
Hearing this, Ji Ziâang swallowed his words.
The two of them arrived at the entrance of the hospital in a daze.
âThen where are we going now?â Ji Ziâang asked softly.
âI donât know.â Ji Yuanyuan shook her head.
Her heart was in a mess and she didnât know what to do.
There was a chair in front of her. She went forward and sat down on the chair.
Ji Zi ang thought about it and followed suit, sitting down beside her.
The two siblings just sat there, neither speaking nor getting up..
