The choice that Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue were required to make was too cruel. Song Jiqing couldnât 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 Jiqingâs eyes and said fluently, âMr. Lu, Mr. Mu, let me tell you the details.â
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue did not speak, and their eyes were sharp as they waited for Henryâs following words.
Henry continued to say slowly, âTo put it simply, Yuechuanâs 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 heâs awake will become shorter and shorter because his condition is getting worse and worse. In the end, ifâ¦â
Everyone knew what would happen in the end, so Henry didnât continue with his words.
After a pause, he changed the subject and continued, âJiqing and I both think that you should choose whether to take the risk or not.â
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 didnât have much, so they were not afraid of anything.
At that time, they didnât mind taking risks.
But that wouldnât work now.
Whatâs more, this matter was related to Yuechuanâs living.
Mu Sijueâs voice suddenly became cold, and every word he spat out was like ice. âWhat kind of choice are you asking us to make?â
Song Jiqing followed Henryâs topic and said the key point, âYuechuan⦠may need to be operated right away.â
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, Yuechuanâs situation suddenly worsened and his physical condition was extremely bad. How could they arrange for Yuechuan to undergo surgery?
Didnât this mean that the already very low success rate of the operation would be reduced by more than half?
âNo!â Lu Boyanâs voice was as cold and sharp as the blade. âYouâll use a different method!â
Song Jiqing shook his head. There was no embarrassment on his face. He looked calm and said, âMr. Lu, Yuechuan⦠there arenât any other methods for him.â
Their treatment was no longer the key, and there werenât any other methods for Yuechuan.
Unless they had the stunningly magical ability to cure someone, taking the operation was Yuechuanâs only choice at present, no matter how risky the operation was.
Henry understood how Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue were feeling as he explained, âGentlemen. If Yuechuan doesnât 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.â
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, âWe are not Yuechuanâs family members, so we canât make the decision for him.â
Song Jiqing understood what Lu Boyan meant.
However, he didnât specifically call Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue over for no reason.
Song Jiqing hesitated for a moment before he reminded them, âAre you sure you want to hand over such a difficult choice to Yunyun? Most importantly, can she⦠handle such terrible news?â
Mu Sijue glanced at Lu Boyan and said, âWeâll discuss it first.â
Song Jiqing nodded and said, âMake it fast.â
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 Jianâan, apart from a few times when he was annoyed by her, he had rarely smoked again.
It was not only because Su Jianâan 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 Jianâan without a healthy body.
However, at this time, Lu Boyan did not refuse Mu Sijueâs cigarette.
He took it, lit it up with Mu Sijueâs lighter, and took a deep drag.
Lu Boyan hadnât smoked for a long time, and Mu Sijueâs cigarettes had a strong smell of smoke. He choked on the smoke and coughed softly.
Mu Sijue smiled and teased him directly, âWhatâs wrong? Donât you know how to smoke?â
Lu Boyan looked at the round and long one between his fingers and said, âI havenât smoked for a long time.â
Mu Sijue paused for a moment and then said, âIt has been almost two years since you married Jianâan.â
When it came to Su Jianâan, Lu Boyan slightly smiled. âYeah. I have lived a normal life for two years.â
Lu Boyan thought that he was not living a normal life before he met Su Jianâan.
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 wasnât until he got married to Su Jianâan that he slowly realized that he could still have fun in life.
What Lu Boyan didnât expect was that the words ânormal lifeâ 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.
âHowever, Lu Boyan is luckier than me. He got married to someone who could make his life normal.
âAs for Xu Youning, she is still in the dangerous place of the Kang family, and she only has Jin protect her.â
Mu Sijue puffed out a ring of smoke and didnât speak for a long time. After a while, he asked, âWhat do you think? Should we let Yunyun make the decision?â
There was a rare hesitation on Lu Boyanâs face. After a while, he shook his head and said, âTo be honest, I donât know.â
Mu Sijue was silent for a long time. âTo be honest, I donât know either.â
Lu Boyan thought for a moment, put out the cigarette butt, and said, âLetâs ask Jianâan about this.â
He sent a message to Su Jianâan, and she quickly came over.
Even if the wind on the balcony was strong, Su Jianâan could still smell the smoke when she opened the door.
Su Jianâan paused and her face froze. âBoyan, howâs Yuechuan doing?â
She remembered very clearly that Lu Boyan had not smoked for a long time. âAfter he and Mu Sijue came back from Song Jiqingâs office, they suddenly hid here and smokedâ¦
âThere must be some special reason for this.â
At this time, Su Jianâan only hoped that everything would go smoothly and that nothing wrong would happen.
However, it seemed that her wishes couldnât come true.
Su Jianâan walked over quickly, grabbed Lu Boyanâs hands, and looked at him eagerly. âWhy did you call me over?â
Lu Boyan knew that Su Jianâan 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 Jianâan seemed to have been immobilized by someone. She could not come to her senses as she stood still like a block of wood.
âHow could this be?
âItâs obvious that Yuechuan has been getting better. Why did his condition suddenly become worse?
âIâve prayed countless times. Could it be that God will still mercilessly take Yuechuan away?â
Lu Boyan knew how Su Jianâan was feeling, but he didnât have enough time to comfort her. He continued, âJiqing and Henry asked us to make a choice. However, in the legal sense, Yunyun is Yuechuanâs family member. She is qualified to sign the surgery consent form. We shouldnât help her decide whether to let Yuechuan take the risk.â
Su Jianâan slowly looked up and asked in a trembling voice, âAre you asking me whether we should tell Yunyun the truth about Yuechuanâs condition?â
Lu Boyan nodded. âThatâs right.â He paused for two seconds and continued, âJianâan, you know Yunyun best. If you donât think itâs appropriate to tell her about the truth, Sijue and I will make the choice.â
Su Jianâan didnât 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 Yuechuanâs 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 Yuechuanâs operation, Yunyun might collapse at any time.
But in fact, their concerns were completely unnecessary.
Su Jianâan sighed softly and said, âEven if you donât tell her, it wonât take long for Yunyun to guess it.â
Lu Boyan didnât say anything.
âWill Yunyun guess it?â
Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue looked confused at the same time.
Su Jianâan patiently explained, âNo matter how big the risk is, in the end, you will still take it and let Yuechuan take the operation, wonât you? Yuechuanâs physical condition is obviously very poor, but the operation is suddenly moved up. Do you think Yunyun canât tell that somethingâs wrong?â
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 Jianâan over.
âWhatâs more, you underestimated Yunyun.â Su Jianâan couldnât help smiling and said slowly, âAt 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.â
Lu Boyan had already understood what Su Jianâan meant. He looked at her and said, âDo you mean that we should tell Yunyun?â
Su Jianâan nodded. âIf you keep this from her, she will definitely guess it. In this case, itâs better to tell her and let her make the choice for Yuechuan. Donât forget that this is the most important choice in Yuechuanâs life.â
