Chapter 481: Chapter 481: This Is The End
“Yes, Doctor! That mysterious volunteer donated their cornea and restored my sister’s health. Our whole family wants to go express our gratitude.”
The doctor shook his head,
“I can’t reveal that information!”
I was puzzled,
“Donating a cornea is a charitable act. Rest assured, I am not going to harass anyone; I just want to say thank you.”
The doctor still refused,
“No good, the donor signed a confidentiality agreement with the hospital. We don’t have the right to disclose it.”
“Ayun, this is because you’ve done so many good deeds; you’ve received the grace of heaven.”
Wenya was thrilled beyond words; she hugged me tightly.
Through the crowd, I saw Gu Yuanzhou standing at the door of the ward, smoking, looking at me with complex eyes.
It was hard to tell what his mix of sorrow and joy really meant at that moment.
At this time, Lin Anqi was asking the doctor with great concern,
“The child in my sister’s womb is okay, right? She had surgery and was given so much anesthesia. Will it affect the fetus?”
“We chose the drugs least stimulating for the child as much as possible during the surgery. As it stands, the fetus’s development is unaffected. Of course, when you reach four to five months, you should go in for screening. If the screening clears, then everything will be smooth.”
“Thank you, Doctor. After we go back, are there any other things we need to be mindful of?”
“In terms of diet, try to eat light! And keep your mood cheerful!”
“Alright, thank you, Doctor.”
Lin Anqi was especially attentive to me; she took out a notebook and wrote down all the doctor’s instructions.
To be honest, just for her sincere care, I couldn’t possibly harbor any complaints against her because of Gu Yuanzhou.
Not even the slightest bit.
After completing the hospital discharge procedures, I stood under the sunshine for a long time.
Bathing in the sunlight, I stretched out my hand to feel the free wind, looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, and suddenly felt how wonderful it is to have eyesight.
Jian Jing followed behind me and said softly,
“Ding Yinuo is really something, claiming over and over that he still loves you, even planning to remarry you, but when it comes down to it, he won’t even come to see you once. You’ve been hospitalized for so many days, and he hasn’t come to visit you at all.”
My memory of Ding Yinuo last stopped at the day I was admitted to the hospital, amid his dispute with Gu Yuanzhou.
I had no idea what happened after that.
“Didn’t he get into a fight with Gu Yuanzhou that day? Gu Yuanzhou said he assigned bodyguards to keep an eye on him and not let him get close, did you know?”
I asked Jian Jing.
Jian Jing nodded,
“I know about that; I saw it too, Ding Yinuo’s face was all swollen. But Gu Yuanzhou didn’t really assign bodyguards to guard, however, Ding Yinuo never came back after that.”
“He really didn’t come back?”
“Mhm, he never came back!”
Just then, Wenya and Su Peisheng walked over, and I took the opportunity to ask him,
“Lawyer Su, have you seen Ding Yinuo recently?”
On hearing this, Wenya said,
“Ayun, have you lost your mind? Your eyes were damaged by Ding Yinuo, why are you still thinking about him?”
“I’m not thinking about him; I just don’t know what kind of state Gu Yuanzhou beat him into, that’s all I’m asking.”
Su Peisheng seemed reluctant to answer my question. After I asked a few times, he finally answered hesitantly,
“I’m not clear on the specific situation, but Ding Yinuo has resigned from the City Hospital. I went to his house last time, but couldn’t find him. I heard he has gone abroad.”
Before I could speak, Wenya cursed again,
“Damn it, fleeing abroad when things go awry, that’s the epitome of scum. At the very least he should come to apologize, right?”
“Let it go, Wenya! No more talking about it…”
I don’t know why, but I just can’t bring myself to hate Ding Yinuo.
Even though I knew he had deliberately hurt my eyes, I couldn’t hate or resent him as Wenya said I should.
After being discharged from the hospital.
At Lin Nansheng’s request, I moved to Yiju Island.
Because Ding Yinuo had disappeared, Lin Nansheng felt there was nobody to take care of me, and moving to Yiju Island meant that someone could.
I didn’t refuse.
Lin Anqi and Lin Nansheng treated me like family, and I really liked them in my heart.
A week later.
My eyes had completely recovered, but I needed to take the anti-rejection medication prescribed by the hospital regularly.
Now living on Yiju Island, I can see Gu Yuanzhou almost every day…
But actually, during the daytime, he’s out socializing and I don’t see him.
He usually comes back after nine at night…
To avoid meeting him, I make sure to return to my room promptly at eight fifty, and then I lie on the couch in my bedroom, scrolling through my phone by myself.
Wenya sent me two dates,
“Which one do you think is better?”
“For what?”
“Hehe, Su Fagun proposed to me! My mom has been nagging me non-stop, so I’ve decided to accept him.”
“Well, congratulations to you both, as for the date, the sooner the better. Let’s pick the ninth, for everlasting love.”
“Okay, I’ll go with your suggestion! Hey, you have no idea how worried my mom was about me getting married. When discussing the dowry, she didn’t even want a single cent and even offered a car as a dowry, fearing the Su family might have second thoughts. You wouldn’t believe how submissive she acted, it was so embarrassing for me.”
“Hahaha, you’re not getting any younger yourself!”
“Cut it out, I may not be young, but I’m outstanding, okay!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
I chatted with Wenya until after ten and then hung up.
Pregnant women tend to get sleepy very easily; after turning off my phone, I fell asleep on the couch.
I don’t know when, but I was awakened by some strange noise.
Opening my eyes, moonlight shone through the window, and a figure stood by the bed.
In a pure black shirt, with deep eyes, I recognized it was Gu Yuanzhou at a glance.
Startled, I immediately sat up. Just as I was about to reach for the light, he caught my hand, stopping me.
“Gu Yuanzhou, what the hell do you want?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to see you sleeping…”
“Don’t you think it’s incredibly rude to sneak into another woman’s bedroom in the middle of the night?”
“I come here every night without harassing you! What are you afraid of?”
“You, you, you…”
He sat down by the bed and let go of my hand.
However, he didn’t do anything inappropriate; he just looked at me.
In truth, I didn’t dare to make any noise.
It would be even worse if others heard us.
“Don’t be like this, I just want to talk to you.”
“We have nothing to talk about; I want to sleep now. You can leave.”
Instead of leaving, he grabbed my wrist, pulling me into his arms, and his other hand caressed my cheek.
“Ayun! I must come to see you every night, only seeing you quenches the fire that burns in my heart… You don’t know, every night I dream of you and the kids…”
His voice was low, filled with sorrow.
I could smell the alcohol on him, and in a burst of deep emotion, he suddenly hugged me tight.
