The CEO’s Woman - Chapter 466
Everyone turned their attention towards the speaker.
“Brother, what are you talking about?” Li Jun scrunched his brows as he walked towards Li Qiang in his wheelchair.
“We have the same blood type. I am his father’s twin brother.” Li Qiang ignored Li Jun’s question, his eyes were focused on the doctor. “I was also born with a smaller heart.” Li Qiang was born with a weak constitution. This was the original reason why Li Jun was picked. Seeing everyone looked at him with pity and understanding, Li Qiang continued. “I am dying anyway. At least… ” At least this way, he could stay with Wang Ruo inside Jiang Yue’s body and somehow experience her love. Even though his consciousness and body are no longer around, Jiang Yue would still have his heart.
However, Li Qiang chose not to say this. He just looked at the doctor, waiting for his answer.
The doctor could only nod at Li Qiang’s words. What else could he say? They only have eighteen hours to find a new heart. Moreover, in these eighteen hours the patient’s heart could stop working anytime. Because of this, they are in a very dire situation right now.
“Brother…”
“I have made up my mind.” Li Qiang interrupted his brother’s words before looking straight into his eyes. “I have cause irreparable heartache towards Jiang Yue. It’s time for me to pay for everything that I have done.”
Seeing his brother’s resolute expression, Li Jun let out a long sigh and eyed Wang Ruo. Without any questions, Wang Ruo immediately pushed Li Qiang’s wheelchair towards the examination room, so the doctor can examine his heart.
During the examinations, Wang Ruo never left Li Qiang. However, both of them did not say any words either. The silence was so thick it was even affecting some of the doctors and nurses.
“I will die soon.” Li Qiang muttered his eyes directed to the monitor that was showing his blood pressure. “This is the only way… for me not to die without any regrets in my life.”
Still Wang Ruo did not utter a word. Her hands slowly made its way into Li Qiang’s hands squeezing it tight. Though the latter could does not have any sensation anymore, Li Qiang was still able to feel the heaviness in Wang Ruo’s heart.
“You are like a brother to me.” Wang Ruo said. “You saved me over and over… and that… ” tears started to stream into Wang Ruo’s cheeks.”And I’m sure my daughter knows that too.”
“She is a smart woman.” Li Qiang nodded. “Smarter than you.” His comment made Wang Ruo smile.
“You are right,” she nodded.”I’m sure… she would forgive you. She… she had a kind heart after all.”
“Stop crying.” Li Qiang said. “It does not suit you.”
“Moreover, my heart would still live inside Jiang Yue.” He added before he looked at Wang Ruo. “I will always have you in my heart. No matter what happens to my body and consciousness… I Li Qiang, will always have you in my heart.”
He then closed his eyes, refusing to take another look at the only woman that owns his heart. After knowing that he would eventually die because of his current condition, Li Qiang originally decided to kill himself. He would rather die than become anyone’s burden.
However, he did not expect for his brother to forgive him and would want to find the best solution for him. But, Li Qiang had already lost his hope. He knows it. From the way the doctors would look at him with so much pity to the images that he saw with his broken spine.
He was a lost cause. He would never be able to feel any sensation on his lower body. And eventually he would also lose his other senses. His taste, hearing and sight is bound to leave him soon.
This fact is something that Li Qiang could not accept. Although he knows that this might be the payment for everything that he had done, he still felt an extreme unwillingness in his heart.
Now, he could only hope that the operation would succeed and he could somehow pay for what he did to Jiang Yue.
…
After another six hours of excruciating wait, the doctor finally announced that Li Qiang’s heart was indeed a match. Then the doctor asked them when they would want to have the operation since Jiang Yue’s heart was declining by the minute.
Without blinking an eyelid, Li Qiang instantly said that he wanted to do it as soon as possible. Since he already made his goodbyes with Wang Ruo, Li Qiang thought that it would be best to have it as soon as possible to save Jiang Yue and the unborn child.
A heart transplant usually takes four hours. However, since Jiang Yue’s is a special case, the doctor already informed them that this might take another two hours since they still need to assure that the fetus would also survive.
However, halfway through the operation the doctor came out. His face dark and grave. “We have a problem.”
