Chapter 440: Chapter 392 Live Well
Mu Shuoqian answered the phone, and Mu Hewen’s somewhat hoarse voice came through: "Shuoqian, where are you now?"
"Central Hospital."
Qi Meihui was also being treated at Central Hospital, so Mu Hewen should be in the same place as him.
"Shuoqian, Meihui might not make it." Mu Hewen’s voice carried a helpless sadness, "This morning, her condition suddenly worsened, and she’s currently in emergency treatment, but the doctor said the chances of her pulling through are next to none."
Mu Shuoqian smiled bitterly, not expecting that both brothers would end up so tragically, guarding their critically ill wives in the same hospital.
"Qili is also in emergency treatment."
Mu Hewen was shocked, "How is the situation?"
"It’s still unclear now."
"Shuoqian, actually I called you because there’s something I need to tell you. When Meihui heard about Qili’s illness, she made a will. If she dies, she wants to donate her liver to Qili. At that time, I didn’t take it seriously, because I always felt she could survive." Mu Hewen sighed, "If possible, let the doctor come to do a matching, she always felt guilty about how she treated Qili before, never expected Qili would visit her without holding a grudge. Unfortunately, she can’t even save herself now, nor does she have the energy to make up for the past mistakes. If today, she really doesn’t pull through, I hope we can donate her liver, as a fulfillment of her last wish."
Although Mu Hewen mentioned that Qi Meihui was willing to donate her liver, Mu Shuoqian had experienced this too many times. Every time a donor was found, he was full of hope, but every time the result was the same: not a match.
Moreover, even though he had reservations about Qi Meihui in the past, now that everyone had put past grievances behind, he didn’t really want Qi Meihui to not make it.
"Okay, I will have the doctor do the matching first." After pausing for a moment, Mu Shuoqian slowly said, "Big brother, everything will get better."
This address of ’big brother’ made Mu Hewen’s tears burst out. Though they’ve known each other for more than a decade and were real brothers, he had never called him ’big brother’ before. This sudden address was so unexpected and precious that it caught him off guard and hugely moved him.
Over the phone, although he knew Hewen couldn’t see it, Mu Hewen still nodded heavily: "I won’t give up, as long as there’s hope, I will not give up on Meihui."
After hanging up, Mu Shuoqian returned to the emergency room, just as the red light went off and the green light came on. Soon after, the doctor came out.
"How is it?" The crowd waiting outside stepped forward to ask.
Doctor Lv shook his head: "Although she was temporarily saved, the same old advice stands: without a transplant, there’s always danger. This time her strong will to live saved her, next time she might not be so lucky."
"Doctor Lv, first let your people do a matching." Although he didn’t want this outcome to come true, Mu Shuoqian still decided to do a matching first. If Qi Meihui could pull through this, it would be a great joy; if not, it would mean creating more hope for Gu Qili.
"Okay, I’ll have someone do it right away."
After being moved to the ward, Gu Qili hadn’t woken up yet, and Mu Qinian had been lying beside her holding her hand all this time, silent, but with ever-red rims around her eyes.
"Mr. Mu." Doctor Lv suddenly appeared at the door, speaking in a lowered voice: "Could you come out for a moment?"
Mu Shuoqian glanced at the comatose Gu Qili, stood up, and walked out.
Shutting the door of the ward, he saw Doctor Lv’s face full of joy, knowing that Doctor Lv, a usually very serious person, would only show such an expression for a certain reason, Mu Shuoqian could guess why.
"Mr. Mu, the matching is a complete match, and even better than I expected. If the transplant really goes ahead, the success rate will definitely increase significantly, and the patient’s post-operative rejection will be minimized," Dr. Lv was somewhat elated, but quickly straightened his face: "The patient is still in emergency treatment, of course, as a doctor, I hope every patient can recover. Mr. Mu, although the matching is suitable, still, maintain an even temper, hope and disappointment coexist."
Mu Shuoqian nodded, he of course understood this principle.
"I’m stepping out for a while."
"Alright, I’ll notify you immediately if there is any update."
Mu Shuoqian went to Qi Meihui’s emergency room. Mu Hewen was standing against the wall, extremely tense, constantly staring at the red light, his anxiety clearly visible.
Hearing footsteps, his movement a bit delayed, he turned his head and saw it was Mu Shuoqian, he asked, "How is Qili?"
