Regret That Didn't Love You Earlier

0While they were in the United States, there were two caregivers invited by Fu Jinchen who took good care of Xu Huizhen and Xia Yuanhang. Xia Xingxuan still wanted to do something within her ability before returning to the country. She wanted to help Xu Huizhen wash her clothes. She massaged her shoulders and back, and even gave Xu Huizhen a scarf that she personally knitted for Xu Huizhen. Let her wear it to keep her warm.     3

    

Xia Xingxuan and Fu Jinchen had said that they would be coming to America for three days. In fact, they had only been here for a day and a half before they took a plane back to the country.    

    

She did not return to Fu residence. Fu Jinchen also thought that she was still in the United States.    

    

She went to see Shen Baixin. Shen Baixin took her to the private ward that had been arranged for her and let her stay for the time being.    

    

After settling the hospitalization matters, Shen Baixin asked the nurse to draw blood for Xia Xingxuan and perform various physical examinations. He also asked Xia Xingxuan to sign an agreement to donate the cornea.    

    

Since she had already come here, she did not think that she would regret it. She had also considered very clearly that she was willing to use her eyes to treat Fu Jinchen's eyes. When Shen Baixin passed the agreement to her, she did not look at it. She signed her name at the place where she needed an autograph.    

    

"When will the surgery begin?"    

    

"Tomorrow morning."    

    

Xia Xingxuan asked,, "When do you plan to let him come to the hospital to perform an ocular transplant?"    

    

"I know that after removing the cornea, it can be preserved, but I hope it will not take too long. I want to let his eyes see it as soon as possible."    

    

Shen Baixin said, "I know this better than you."    

    

"Don't worry. I already told Jinchen yesterday that I found a pair of cornea suitable for him. I want him to come to the hospital tomorrow and transplant your cornea to him the day after tomorrow."    

    

"I hope you don't meet him for the time being before the surgery is completed. If he finds out, he won't be willing to use your cornea. Then, his eyes will be blind for the rest of his life."    

    

Xia Xingxuan's tone was so pale and weak. "I know."    

    

"How long will it take for him to fully recover after the surgery?"    

    

Shen Baixin said, "It varies from person to person. Patients who usually perform ocular replantation surgeries will usually have new ocular retinas. You need to take a long period of anti-rejection medicine. It can be recovered in three months to six months, ___ said. However, Ah Chen's condition is very good. I think he might recover a little earlier than the others. "    

    

Xia Xingxuan said, "I thought that after changing into new cornea, it would only take a week at most for him to recover."    

    

" That is just your personal opinion. If it could really be restored in a week, that would simply be a world-shocking miracle. "    

    

Shen Baixin put away the agreement she had signed and said, "We can only eat at eight o'clock in the evening and after tomorrow's surgery."    

    

"There will be a nurse who will give you a drop of medicine for your eyes later. It may hurt a little, but you have to bear with it, because some preparation work will be very troublesome before the operation of the cornea transplant."    

    

Xia Xingxuan said, "I know."    

    

Before Shen Baixin left, he suddenly said to Xia Xingxuan, "Don't you plan on writing a will?"    

    

"A will? I just lost a pair of eyes and not a life. Why should I write a will?"    

    

Shen Baixin said, "I was just joking with you. You don't have to take it to heart."    

    

"When I was still an apprentice, I had an eye transplant surgery with my teacher for a blind patient. The surgery was supposed to be a success, but unfortunately, the patient died on the operating table."    

    

Xia Xingxuan was shocked. "Why?"    

    

"He has myocardial infarction. For people with this kind of illness, performing general anesthesia can easily cause their heartbeat to stop."    

    

"The most unfortunate thing is that he left very suddenly. He did not even have time to tell his family anything before he disappeared."    

    

"No matter what kind of surgery it is, there will be a certain risk. The patient in the surgery will have an abnormal situation. Although the probability of this happening is very low, once it happens, the mortality rate will be 100%."    

    

"So every time I perform a surgery with a higher risk, I will ask the patient. Should I write a will or something like that? If there are any accidents... I can help him pass the suicide note to his family, but if there is no... I'll keep the will for him. "    

    

Xia Xingxuan half-jokingly said, "Doctor Shen's drawer is probably full of the patient's will, right?"    

    

"How do you know?"    

    

"Because I believe that Doctor Shen will do his best to perform every surgery. He will definitely not make a mistake. "    

    

"Don't overestimate me. Not every doctor is like Hua Tuo in this world. I can't guarantee that the surgery I performed for you tomorrow will not result in any accidents."    

    

"You should rest first. I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll leave first. If you have any matters to attend to, you can call me."    

    

Xia Xingxuan nodded. "Okay."    

    

Shen Baixin left Xia Xingxuan's ward. He walked around the ward area twice and came to the door of another ward.    

    

He knocked on the door, and a young girl's voice came from inside.    

    

"Please come in."    

    

Shen Baixin opened the door and saw a girl about Xia Xingxuan's age lying on the bed. The nurse who took care of her saw Shen Baixin and said with a smile, "Doctor Shen is here."    

    

When the girl heard that it was Shen Baixin, she got off the bed excitedly. She did not even wear her shoes and just stretched her hand forward randomly. She wanted to touch something, but she couldn't. He even stepped on his shoes. His feet slipped and he almost fell down. Luckily, Shen Baixin quickly helped her up.    

    

"Yuanyuan, can't you just stay on the bed?"    

    

Xie Yuanyuan pouted and complained discontentedly, "You didn't come to see me this morning. I miss you."    

    

He pulled Xie Yuanyuan into his arms and kissed her forehead. He said, "Didn't I come here?"    

    

"I finished what I needed to do today. I just wanted to squeeze out the afternoon time to accompany you."    

    

"Then you have to keep your word. You have to accompany me this afternoon, including tonight."    

    

Shen Baixin saw that Xie Yuanyuan was barefooted and smiled helplessly. He bent down to pick Xie Yuanyuan up and put her back on the bed.    

    

The nurse who took care of Xie Yuanyuan temporarily left and left the space for the two of them.    

    

"The surgery is tomorrow. Are you afraid?"    

    

Xie Yuanyuan's hands reached towards Shen Baixin's face. After touching his face, she said, "I'm not afraid because you are here."    

    

"Yes, with me here, the surgery will be carried out smoothly."    

    

"Not long after, you can see everything just like before. You don't have to be afraid of the darkness in front of you anymore."    

    

Xie Yuanyuan was not happy because of his words. She said in a low voice, "I inherited my mother's eye cancer. I was completely blind two months ago. You also went through a lot of trouble to cure my eyes. If I had surgery, my eyes would have regained clarity. But if the genetic disease of eye cancer relapse again..."    

    

"No, as long as I finish this surgery, it will not relapse again. Yuanyuan, believe me, you will get better."    

    

"Then if we have a child, do you think our child will also suffer from this disease?"    

    

"Yuanyuan, what you should do now is to relax your mood and welcome tomorrow's surgery, and not let your imagination run wild."    

    

Xie Yuanyuan did not want to give him more trouble. He was already busy enough with his usual work. She really should not have said these things to disturb him.    

    

"Alright, then I won't say anymore."    

    

She changed the topic. "Who is the person who donated the cornea to me?"    

    

"It's a girl about your age."    

    

Xie Yuanyuan said regretfully, "She was only 24 years old. She passed away in her prime. What a pity."    

    

"I really want to thank her for donating the cornea after she passed away. When my eyes recover, I want to personally go to her grave to thank her, because she is my benefactor."    

    

Shen Baixin looked at Xie Yuanyuan's pure and clear eyes and said, "When the time comes, I will go with you."    

    

That night, Xia Xingxuan did not sleep well.    

    

She knew how to recognize a bed. It was very uncomfortable to sleep in a different environment.    

    

She tossed and turned and could not sleep. She forced herself to close her eyes and also could not fall asleep.    

    

Perhaps it was because the surgery was going to be carried out tomorrow that she did not feel tired.    

    

She opened her eyes and looked at the heavy snow outside the window. She thought that Fu Jinchen should have fallen asleep at this time, right? Or perhaps he was busy with something. Did he miss her during the two days she left?    

    

She was going to have surgery tomorrow. She really wanted to see him now.    

    

Perhaps it was because this thought was too strong, but after she fell asleep in the second half of the night, she dreamt of Fu Jinchen...
