CHAPTER 214: CHAPTER 214: ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO TALK HERE?

In the Capital, Qiu Qingmei was wheeled out of the operating room first.

After inquiring about the situation, Han Chunli learned that Qiu Qingmei’s surgery went smoothly. She felt relieved and had her son escort her back to the ward, then waited anxiously for her daughter to be brought out.

However, every minute and second felt like torture for her, and Ji Xiaowen’s surgery was not going very well. Ji Xiaowen’s body was too weak; if it weren’t for the experienced attending and operating doctors, the surgery might have been dangerous.

When the doctor came out, he said the surgery was relatively successful, but it would be uncertain until the rejection period passed in the ICU, and family members couldn’t visit in the next few days. Han Chunli couldn’t help but shiver, feeling a deep fear inside.

Ji Linfeng comforted her, "Xiaowen has a guardian angel; she’ll be okay."

Initially, when Han Chunli mentioned finding someone from distant relatives to donate a kidney for her daughter, he didn’t believe it at all, thinking even close family wouldn’t agree, let alone distant relatives.

Han Chunli said, "With money, anything is possible."

Unexpectedly, she did find someone, and the match was successful, but at first, Miss wasn’t willing.

He couldn’t sleep for nights on end; Miss was about the same age as his daughter. He both wanted her to agree and feared she would; he lost over ten pounds in just a few days from the stress.

Ultimately, he selfishly wanted his daughter to live. After consulting various experts to ensure there were no life-threatening risks for the donor under usual circumstances, he chose to support his wife, promising to assist Miss in any future troubles she might face.

They lingered in front of the ICU for a long time without seeing their daughter and eventually returned to the general ward to see Qiu Qingmei, only to find someone sitting by Xiaowen’s previous bed as soon as they entered.

Feeling upset, Han Chunli spoke harshly, "Why are you sitting here?"

Qiu Shaocheng looked over at the sound, immediately recognizing the child he had entrusted to Han Chuan Nian back then. He stood up, "Are you Han Chunli?"

Han Chunli’s mood worsened upon hearing his question, "Who are you, and how do you know my name?"

Qiu Shaocheng glanced at the others in the ward, "Could we speak privately?"

Han Chunli initially didn’t want to agree, but Ji Linfeng spoke up, "Then let’s talk outside."

He noticed the strange way this person looked at his wife and didn’t want other patients to overhear their conversation, so he spoke first, afraid his wife might say something unpleasant.

The three of them went downstairs, and Qiu Shaocheng looked at Ji Linfeng, "I have some things I’d like to discuss with her alone. Could you give us a moment?"

Ji Linfeng shook his head, "We don’t know each other, so I’m afraid I can’t agree. Whatever you have to say, say it; we are husband and wife, and I have the right to know her affairs."

Seeing no sign of compromise from Ji Linfeng, Qiu Shaocheng decided not to insist, pointing to a pavilion nearby, "Let’s talk over there."

The pavilion had a good view and was open enough that it couldn’t hide anyone, making it a good place to talk.

At this point, Han Chunli spoke up, "Whatever you have to say, say it here. Why should we listen to you?"

Qiu Shaocheng glanced at the passing people nearby, "Are you sure you want to discuss it here?"

Ji Linfeng pulled Han Chunli aside, "I’m tired today. There’s a place to rest over in that pavilion."

After speaking, Ji Linfeng pulled her towards the pavilion, wanting to quickly wrap up and go upstairs to find the doctor to ask about their daughter. He had no interest in tangling with this person.
