The choice that Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue were required to make was too cruel. Song Jiqing couldn’t bear to say it and looked at Henry.
After working with Song Jiqing for such a long time, Henry still had some tacit understanding with him. In a second, he understood Song Jiqing’s eyes and said fluently, “Mr. Lu, Mr. Mu, let me tell you the details.”
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue did not speak, and their eyes were sharp as they waited for Henry’s following words.
Henry continued to say slowly, “To put it simply, Yuechuan’s illness has reached an irreparable level. He may wake up, but he will soon fall unconscious again. Also, his conscious time will be longer and longer, and the time he’s awake will become shorter and shorter because his condition is getting worse and worse. In the end, if…”
Everyone knew what would happen in the end, so Henry didn’t continue with his words.
After a pause, he changed the subject and continued, “Jiqing and I both think that you should choose whether to take the risk or not.”
Speaking of risks, Lu Boyan knew Mu Sijue in his teens. When they were still young, the two of them had done something challenging together.
At that time, they didn’t have much, so they were not afraid of anything.
At that time, they didn’t mind taking risks.
But that wouldn’t work now.
What’s more, this matter was related to Yuechuan’s living.
Mu Sijue’s voice suddenly became cold, and every word he spat out was like ice. “What kind of choice are you asking us to make?”
Song Jiqing followed Henry’s topic and said the key point, “Yuechuan… may need to be operated right away.”
Hearing that, Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue narrowed their eyes almost at the same time.
It was clear that they were extremely shocked at this answer, to the extent where they could even be said to be furious.
Song Jiqing had clearly said before that before Yuechuan had the operation, he must adjust his body to the best state so as to increase the success rate of the operation.
Now, Yuechuan’s situation suddenly worsened and his physical condition was extremely bad. How could they arrange for Yuechuan to undergo surgery?
Didn’t this mean that the already very low success rate of the operation would be reduced by more than half?
“No!” Lu Boyan’s voice was as cold and sharp as the blade. “You’ll use a different method!”
Song Jiqing shook his head. There was no embarra.s.sment on his face. He looked calm and said, “Mr. Lu, Yuechuan… there aren’t any other methods for him.”
Their treatment was no longer the key, and there weren’t any other methods for Yuechuan.
Unless they had the stunningly magical ability to cure someone, taking the operation was Yuechuan’s only choice at present, no matter how risky the operation was.
Henry understood how Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue were feeling as he explained, “Gentlemen. If Yuechuan doesn’t take the operation, he may not… have much time left. If he takes the operation, he still has one last glimmer of hope. Jiqing and I suggest that you should take the risk and sign the surgery consent form. The operation should be arranged in the afternoon on the day after tomorrow.”
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue did not speak. They were both about to break down, and the big office fell into silence for a while.
In the end, Lu Boyan calmed down and said, “We are not Yuechuan’s family members, so we can’t make the decision for him.”
Song Jiqing understood what Lu Boyan meant.
However, he didn’t specifically call Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue over for no reason.
Song Jiqing hesitated for a moment before he reminded them, “Are you sure you want to hand over such a difficult choice to Yunyun? Most importantly, can she… handle such terrible news?”
Mu Sijue glanced at Lu Boyan and said, “We’ll discuss it first.”
Song Jiqing nodded and said, “Make it fast.”
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue left the office and walked to the balcony of the tea room.
Mu Sijue stood straight, took out a cigarette pack and a lighter, and handed a cigarette to Lu Boyan.
Since Lu Boyan got married to Su Jian’an, apart from a few times when he was annoyed by her, he had rarely smoked again.
It was not only because Su Jian’an hated the smell of cigarettes, but also because he knew that smoking was not a good thing, which would directly bring harm to his health.
He was afraid that he could not take care of Su Jian’an without a healthy body.
However, at this time, Lu Boyan did not refuse Mu Sijue’s cigarette.
He took it, lit it up with Mu Sijue’s lighter, and took a deep drag.
Lu Boyan hadn’t smoked for a long time, and Mu Sijue’s cigarettes had a strong smell of smoke. He choked on the smoke and coughed softly.
Mu Sijue smiled and teased him directly, “What’s wrong? Don’t you know how to smoke?”
Lu Boyan looked at the round and long one between his fingers and said, “I haven’t smoked for a long time.”
Mu Sijue paused for a moment and then said, “It has been almost two years since you married Jian’an.”
When it came to Su Jian’an, Lu Boyan slightly smiled. “Yeah. I have lived a normal life for two years.”
Lu Boyan thought that he was not living a normal life before he met Su Jian’an.
Before that, there were only two things in his life, which were work and planning for revenge.
One could imagine how boring that kind of life was.
It wasn’t until he got married to Su Jian’an that he slowly realized that he could still have fun in life.
What Lu Boyan didn’t expect was that the words “normal life” slightly got to Mu Sijue.
Lu Boyan used to have the same boring life as Mu Sijue. That was why Shen Yuechuan always complained that they were both boring people and did not understand the romance of life at all.
“However, Lu Boyan is luckier than me. He got married to someone who could make his life normal.
“As for Xu Youning, she is still in the dangerous place of the Kang family, and she only has Jin protect her.”
Mu Sijue puffed out a ring of smoke and didn’t speak for a long time. After a while, he asked, “What do you think? Should we let Yunyun make the decision?”
There was a rare hesitation on Lu Boyan’s face. After a while, he shook his head and said, “To be honest, I don’t know.”
Mu Sijue was silent for a long time. “To be honest, I don’t know either.”
Lu Boyan thought for a moment, put out the cigarette b.u.t.t, and said, “Let’s ask Jian’an about this.”
He sent a message to Su Jian’an, and she quickly came over.
Even if the wind on the balcony was strong, Su Jian’an could still smell the smoke when she opened the door.
Su Jian’an paused and her face froze. “Boyan, how’s Yuechuan doing?”
She remembered very clearly that Lu Boyan had not smoked for a long time. “After he and Mu Sijue came back from Song Jiqing’s office, they suddenly hid here and smoked…
“There must be some special reason for this.”
At this time, Su Jian’an only hoped that everything would go smoothly and that nothing wrong would happen.
However, it seemed that her wishes couldn’t come true.
Su Jian’an walked over quickly, grabbed Lu Boyan’s hands, and looked at him eagerly. “Why did you call me over?”
Lu Boyan knew that Su Jian’an had already guessed that things were not optimistic. He covered her hands and told her everything about what Song Jiqing and Henry had said.
After listening to Lu Boyan, Su Jian’an seemed to have been immobilized by someone. She could not come to her senses as she stood still like a block of wood.
“How could this be?
“It’s obvious that Yuechuan has been getting better. Why did his condition suddenly become worse?
“I’ve prayed countless times. Could it be that G.o.d will still mercilessly take Yuechuan away?”
Lu Boyan knew how Su Jian’an was feeling, but he didn’t have enough time to comfort her. He continued, “Jiqing and Henry asked us to make a choice. However, in the legal sense, Yunyun is Yuechuan’s family member. She is qualified to sign the surgery consent form. We shouldn’t help her decide whether to let Yuechuan take the risk.”
Su Jian’an slowly looked up and asked in a trembling voice, “Are you asking me whether we should tell Yunyun the truth about Yuechuan’s condition?”
Lu Boyan nodded. “That’s right.” He paused for two seconds and continued, “Jian’an, you know Yunyun best. If you don’t think it’s appropriate to tell her about the truth, Sijue and I will make the choice.”
Su Jian’an didn’t say anything.
She knew why Lu Boyan said that, and she also knew what he and Mu Sijue were worried about.
The success rate of Yuechuan’s operation was low, and now he would take the operation in the worst state.
If anything went wrong, they would lose him forever.
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue were worried about Yuechuan, and they were also worried that Xiao Yunyun might not be able to bear such a heavy thing. During Yuechuan’s operation, Yunyun might collapse at any time.
But in fact, their concerns were completely unnecessary.
Su Jian’an sighed softly and said, “Even if you don’t tell her, it won’t take long for Yunyun to guess it.”
Lu Boyan didn’t say anything.
“Will Yunyun guess it?”
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue looked confused at the same time.
Su Jian’an patiently explained, “No matter how big the risk is, in the end, you will still take it and let Yuechuan take the operation, won’t you? Yuechuan’s physical condition is obviously very poor, but the operation is suddenly moved up. Do you think Yunyun can’t tell that something’s wrong?”
The two men were speechless.
This time, Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue had nothing to say.
Just now, they had indeed overlooked this point.
Therefore, Lu Boyan made the right decision by getting Su Jian’an over.
“What’s more, you underestimated Yunyun.” Su Jian’an couldn’t help smiling and said slowly, “At first, she could confess her love to Yuechuan under the pressure of their brother and sister relationship. Later, when she learned of his illness, she still stayed with him. Since Yuechuan got admitted to the hospital, he has been in the OR many times, but what did Yunyun complain about it to you? No. She can handle everything on her own.”
Lu Boyan had already understood what Su Jian’an meant. He looked at her and said, “Do you mean that we should tell Yunyun?”
Su Jian’an nodded. “If you keep this from her, she will definitely guess it. In this case, it’s better to tell her and let her make the choice for Yuechuan. Don’t forget that this is the most important choice in Yuechuan’s life.”
