In the previous transplant, Chu Xiaoxiao was only one step away, but she managed to escape. This time, after the hospital confirmed Ye Anne's operation time, the first thing Qin Xu did was to find the female university student who agreed to donate her bone marrow.
After finding out that the other party was short of money, he decided to add an additional sum of money to the originally agreed compensation, which could be considered as a gift from the other party.
However, that female university student was very principled. She said she needed 100,000 yuan and was only willing to accept 100,000 yuan. She didn't want any extra money.
Qin Xu was unable to give out the money in the end, but he was still a bit worried. Hence, in the next two days, Qin Xu was happy that he could be saved very quickly, but he was also worried, afraid that the donor would regret it at the moment …
Because he was too worried, he didn't dare to close his eyes for two days and two nights. It wasn't until the day of the operation that he personally saw the doctor push the female university student and Ye Anne into the operation room one after the other.
Ye Anne's condition had worsened to a certain extent because of the long delay, but with a skilled medical expert overseeing the operation, Ye Anne's operation ended up being a success.
When Ye Anne was pushed out of the operation room and the doctors announced the success of the operation, all the medical personnel in the hospital could not help but cheer out in joy …
But, although Ye Anne's operation was successful, she suddenly fell ill.
Maybe it was because he was under too much pressure and too much tension previously, but when Qin Xu fell ill, it was like a landslide and he had actually burned heavily for three days and two nights, which was when he finally woke up.
The moment he found out about the success of Ye Anne's operation, his mind relaxed and he suddenly fainted. At that time, Ye Anne was still unconscious on the sickbed due to the anesthesia, and he did not even have time to take a look.
Thus, after Qin Xu regained consciousness, regardless of whether the temperature of his body was still a little high, he directly got off the bed and went to Ye Anne's ward.
Although the doctor said that the transplant would be a success, he didn't see it with his own eyes. In the end, he was still worried …
When Qin Xu arrived at Ye Anne's sickroom, Mr. Ye and Zi Xing were there as well. Ye Anne leaned against the headboard, his complexion not bad, and was chatting happily with the few people in the room.
Ever since Ye Anne had gotten sick, it had been a long time since such a happy and warm atmosphere had appeared around her.
Qin Xu stopped at the door for a while, and did not rashly go forward to disturb them.
However, the Mrs. Ye in the ward had noticed Qin Xu first. She reached out and pulled Mr. Ye, signaling him to come, and then the two of them exchanged a glance. Then, they quietly got up and left together with Ye Zixing, leaving the room for Qin Xu and Ye Anne.
Qin Xu stared at Ye Anne greedily, and slowly walked closer to her, before sighing and saying, "Tell me, this is not a dream. You have really undergone a transplant, and will soon recover back to your normal health?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, wanting to stroke the hair on Ye Anne's forehead.
However, Ye Anne subconsciously tilted her head and dodged the attack.
Because of this dodging motion, a faint sense of awkwardness rose up between the two of them.
Ye Anne avoided Qin Xu's gaze, uneasily clearing his throat, then answered: "We aren't dreaming, I have indeed undergone a bone marrow transplant, and the recovery after two days is not too bad. The doctor said, if there are no accidents, with this rate of recovery, I will be able to leave the hospital in half a month."
"That's good." Qin Xu laughed, then stiffly retracted his hand that was already in the air.
He told himself in his heart that it was very normal that Ye Anne had dodged her touch just now.
Ye Anne had thought that she was going to die soon. In the face of life and death, these contradictions were naturally not worth mentioning, which was why she was allowed to be intimate with Yue Yang … But now, her operation had succeeded and she would soon recover completely. It was time to properly settle the scores between the two of them.
It was understandable for Ye Anne to be a little colder to herself before these matters were completely resolved.
However, Ye Anne had been willing to forgive him previously and confess, which meant that she still held a lot of weight in her heart. In other words, Ye Anne would forgive him sooner or later, but she might need to be patient this time and spend more time to regain Ye Anne's forgiveness and trust …
Qin Xu tried to convince himself not to mind the moment Ye Anne dodged him, but in reality, he still felt an obvious sense of loss and injury.
Just then, he heard Ye Anne who was on the sickbed say a thanks to her politely: "Thank you for all this. If not for you, I might not have had the chance to undergo the surgery."
Qin Xu shook his head and said: "You don't have to be so polite, I didn't help you much."
Ye Anne smiled back at him, within her politeness there was also a faint sense of alienation.
The more Ye Anne was courteous to him, the more it revealed the estrangement between the two of them, and at the same time, it made the atmosphere between the two of them even more awkward.
Qin Xu endured the discomfort in his heart.
But he was also afraid that if he forced Ye Anne to a corner, it would cause her to stay even further away from him …
Thus, when he felt that Ye Anne was starting to become more and more uncomfortable, Qin Xu decided to leave first. He said: "I'm relieved to know that you're fine.
Ye Anne's eyes flashed on the bed, she bit her lips and did not make a sound.
Qin Xu did not wait for Ye Anne's reply for a long time, thinking that her silence was equivalent to her taciturn approval of him.
The disappointment in Qin Xu's heart grew even stronger, but he still smiled gently at Ye Anne, then turned to leave.
But who would've thought that just as he turned around, his hand was suddenly grabbed by the person on the bed.
Qin Xu turned his head and asked Ye Anne: "What else do you want?"
Ye Anne's face slowly turned red. She hesitantly raised her head and met Qin Xu's eyes again as she said, "I want you to stay and chat with me for a while."
Although her face was still red, when she spoke, her slender and delicate fingers still slowly squeezed between Qin Xu's fingers. The two people's hands quickly became intertwined with each other.
Seeing that Qin Xu did not reply her after a long while, she even shook their interlocked hands playfully.
The gesture was unusually intimate.
All of the disappointment in Qin Xu's heart disappeared, leaving behind only cotton candy like sweetness.
He lowered his head, looked at Ye Anne's eyes, tightened his fingers, and said: "Okay, I'll always be with you …"
In a flash, half a month had passed and Ye Anne's body had basically returned to its normal state. After the doctor gave her one last examination last night, he approved that she could leave the hospital today.
After hearing this news, the happiest person was little Ye Zixing. He had been looking forward to it the most, but his mother had finally left the hospital, and he was as happy as a small sunflower. He smiled until his teeth could no longer be seen.
Ye Zixing came to the hospital with his grandparents early in the morning. He helped her complete the discharge procedures and took her home.
Even the Vice Principal, Dr. Fan and the rest of the medical personnel took time to bid Ye Anne farewell. Only, Qin Xu was not present today.
had no choice but to go and take care of it. In a short while, he was unable to leave and had to bring her out of the hospital.
In the half month after Ye Anne's operation, after the two people's ten fingers had been locked together, the unpleasantness and contradiction between them had been completely eliminated. Qin Xu was now even more gentle to Ye Anne, and Ye Anne had also withdrawn the bad points in his personality.
Although Qin Xu and Ye Anne did not say anything, but the current situation they were in made them sound like proper lovers. There was no such thing as who was the substitute for whom, nor was there any deception or betrayal …
Even Mr. Ye would find it so sweet that their teeth would hurt if they saw the situation where they were getting along with each other.
Qin Xu and Ye Anne could already be considered to have shared a good will, and Ye Zixing had long acknowledged and accepted Qin Xu as his father. Even the Mr. Ye who used to have some complaints towards Qin Xu had tacitly accepted the friendship between the two. On the other side of the Qin family, after Ye Anne underwent surgery, Qin Chengqi also represented his parents to express his blessings and love towards Ye Anne …
Almost everyone agreed that a good thing was nearing to come between Qin Xu and the other party, they were only missing a proposal …
This should have been something worth being happy about, but when Ye Anne was tidying up her personal belongings, she kept frowning.
She frowned not because Qin Xu couldn't come and get her out of the hospital today, but because Qin Xu had not mentioned the matter of their marriage to her for a long time.
She could feel Qin Xu's love for her, but since everything was already settled, shouldn't the two of them start discussing about marriage?
When Qin Xu didn't mention about marriage, he couldn't possibly let a woman like her speak first, right?
That would show how eager she was to get married, and might even be misunderstood as being trying to force a marriage …
Ye Anne thought over and over again, but she couldn't figure out what Qin Xu was thinking.
However, just as she was sighing in annoyance, the phone beside her suddenly beeped twice.
Ye Anne casually unlocked it and checked. The text message was from Qin Xu, saying that he had offered to eat dinner with her in order to celebrate her release from the hospital today. However, Ye Anne had purposely emphasized that there would be only the two of them for tonight's celebration.
After Ye Anne finished reading, she could not help but raise her eyebrows. Could this be a hint?
She suddenly thought that today, it was because something urgent had happened at Qin’s company that Qin Xu was unable to come and bring her out of the hospital — but in reality, after Qin Chengqi had taken charge of the Qin’s, although Qin Chengqi's business talent was not as good as Qin Xu's, but it was not difficult at all to handle most of the matters. Even if he met with some thorny problems, he could just give Qin Xu a call and ask him for some advice.
Then, if it wasn't for some matters regarding the company …
Ye Anne suddenly thought of a certain possibility, and her heartbeat suddenly sped up.
