Thinking this, Tang Zhou suddenly lost his appetite. As someone like him, he would likely have to live alone for the rest of his life. He didnât even think about inflicting himself onto others. Actually, living alone isnât that bad since he has so many brothers, he wouldnât have to worry about growing old alone!
But then thinking that, a year later, he wouldnât be able to casually order Leng Chenmo around like now, he felt a trace of regret seeping into his heart.
It would be great if there was someone in this world who could accept his disabled body. Regrettably, this was nothing but a fantasy. The doctors have said that he could undergo surgery to fix his condition but he was scared of surgeryâ¦

The next day,
Early in the morning,
Ye Xingguang woke up early because her father needed to undergo a kidney transplant surgery today.
The surgery was at nine-thirty in the morning. Li Yu was the main surgeon and assisting him were Bo Jingyu and several kidney specialist surgeons. The surgical team was quite formidable, but Ye Xingguangâs heart was still uneasy.
Not until two in the afternoon, when the surgery was confirmed to be successful, did her restless heart finally calm down.
After the surgery, her dad was moved to a special ward, where he would be observed for the next four days. During this period, family members were not allowed inside the ward, so Ye Xingguang and her mom stayed as close to the wardâs door as they could.
In the evening, Ye Junqing arranged a dinner to thank the doctors who had operated on her father. Only then did Ye Xingguang agree to leave the door to the special ward.
It was a must to offer a toast to each doctor at the dinner table, as this was her way of expressing her gratitude.
Normally, her mom would stop her from drinking, but tonight she didnât. Yen Junqing, hoping she would relax after such a tense day, also didnât stop her.
It was Li Yu, who looked as if he hadnât slept for eight lifetimes after performing the surgery, that held up his cup and said, âDonât drink too much. You look like a ghost when youâre drunk and I donât like looking at that.â
Ye Xingguang was already quite drunk and her cheeks were flushed. When drunk, she had a tendency to cling to people she was familiar with. Both Ye Junqing and Li Yu knew this.
Li Yu didnât want Ye Xingguang to lean on Ye Junqing when she got drunk, so he was unwilling. But happiness came in like a whirlwind. Ye Xingguang who was drunk actually snuggled up to him!
Caught off guard by Ye Xingguangâs sudden embrace, Li Yuâs face turned red. The tall and burly man showed a hint of shyness as he struggled to get his words out, âWhat are you doing? Act more gracefully! I know that youâve admired me since you were young! But there are so many people here, canât you be a little more restrained?â
But Ye Xingguang insisted on snuggling up to him, obediently and quietly like a Persian cat. She even made a âshushâ gesture, âQuiet, this is babyâs nap time.â
Ye Junqing was looking grim, â!!!!!â
Seeing Ye Junqingâs darkened face but still managing to maintain the harmony of the dinner, Bo Jingyu, who was seated beside Li Yu, nudged Ye Xingguangâs arm, âYouâre drunk. Do you even know who youâre lying on? Can you still recognize who is who?â
Ye Xingguang was feeling giddy, she laboriously lifted her eyelids and upon seeing Bo Jingyu, she showed a row of pearly whites in a big smile, âIâm not drunk, of course I know who you are. Youâre the man Iâm providing for.â
Bo Jingyu: ââ¦..â
Li Yu burst into laughter, âDoctor Bo is the man youâre providing for?â
Ye Xingguang nodded her head vigorously and snuggled up to Li Yu, finding a comfortable position to continue leaning on him, completely oblivious to Ye Junqingâs glaringly unpleasant face!!!
