Chapter 465 - Take Mine

"I never watch her grow up. But I could be with her while she grows old." Li Jun muttered before he clutched Wang Ruo's hands. Then he looked at the doctor. "Can you test if my heart matches hers?"

The doctor only nodded at Li Jun's words.

"Doctor, I.. I want to know about the fetus?" Fu Jin asked. "I… how about its survival rate?"

"The patient is currently 7 weeks- running 8 weeks pregnant. To be frank, there is an eighty percent chance that this operation would affect the fetus. Especially that the patient's body is already so weak from the poisoning. It is already a miracle the child in her uterus are still alive at this moment." The doctor said.

"I don't want you to get your hopes up. The twenty percent of it surviving would be a miracle. This is actually not an issue at all, Mr. Fu. Our examinations show that your wife had a healthy uterus. We could also assist her in conceiving. But that might not be possible in the next three years because of the heart transplant. However, I could assure you that she still had the ability to give birth in the future." He added before getting up and asking Li Jun to follow him for the laboratory examinations that was needed to see if they have a matching heart.

"Dr… could we have a moment for ourselves first? Just give us twenty minutes." Wang Ruo said. Seeing the doctor nod and left the room, Wang Ruo instantly looked at her husband.

"Are you sure about this?" she asked, sadness apparent in her pale face. In response, Li Jun hugged his wife and whispered, "I am. This is the only thing that I could do to be able to pay all the time that I missed in her childhood."

Wang Ruo's tears instantly started to stream down her cheeks when she heard Li Jun's words. However, she chose not to say anything. She could never imagine that the happy family reunion that she imagined would turn out this way. Is this her punishment for the life that she took when she was younger?

Sensing Wang Ruo's thoughts, Li Jun said, "This is not your fault. We are nothing but victims of fate." On their reunion last night, both Wang Ruo and Li Jun talked about what happened in the past and ended the night with the decision to move on and start a new life away from this dangerous world. They wanted a normal life with Jiang Yue and Fu Jin and their grandkids. However, it seems that fate does not like their plans at all…

Seeing Li Jun's determined face, Wang Ruo could only swallow her sadness as she gestured for both of them to follow the doctor so they could have the examinations. This was not the time for her to be weak. However, before she could go out of the door, she did not forget to tell Fu Jin to inform everyone about Jiang Yue's current state.

The heaviness in her heart would not give her the courage to inform everyone about the current state of her daughter and her husband's plans. Her mind was in shambles. She could pretend to be strong and in control, but there is no way that she could convince her heart to feel the same.

The possibility of both losing her husband and her daughter at the same time was something that she could not get out of her mind. What if there would be another complication and … Jiang Yue would still die after the transfer?

Wang Ruo never thought of dying because of sadness nor from losing her loved one. But this… this would be her last straw. Losing Li Jun for Jiang Yue is something that she could force herself to accept because if her love towards her daughter. But losing both of them… would be the death of her.

…

"So the poison… did it affect the fetus?" Blake Lee asked while frowning.

"No. It did not. But the heart transplant might. Her body was already so weak that it might not have the possibility of sustaining the fetus anymore." Fu Jin said. His voice was low but it already had a little tinge of hope.

"Then what about her other organs?" Wang Minghua asked.

"They were fast enough to stop the poison from spreading. However, it was still able to damage her heart because it was the closest organ to knife would. It… it missed her heart by a couple of inches." He answered while letting out a sigh. Then he closed his eyes and leaned his head on the wall.

Right now, Fu Jin was only hoping that his wife would survive this operation. Though it was hurting him, Fu Jin already accepted the fate of their unborn child. The doctor was right, Jiang Yue was still young. They could still have dozens of babies if they wanted too… or they could pay for surrogacy. There are many options. The only thing that Fu Jin hoped for is for Jiang Yue to forgive him for not being able to save their child.

For Fu Jin, Jiang Yue's life is still the most important thing.

Moreover, if he would lose Jiang Yue then… what is the point of living?

….

The examination for the tissue matching would take approximately four to six hours before it can be completed.

As Jiang Yue's father, Li Jun have a very good chance of having his heart matched with hers. However, there are still some factors that they never thought about.

"Are you sure? But why? I am her father? We have the same blood type, and I'm sure the composition of our tissues are the same too!" Li Jun exclaimed when the doctor informed him that he was not a match for his own daughter. Frustration, anger, and anxiety were written all over his face. They only have eighteen more hours! Eighteen! How the hell are they going to find a heart that would match hers?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I originally thought that your heart would be compatible since you are her father. But the issue is within the size. Your heart is bigger than hers. We need someone that is almost, if not exactly identical as hers."

"Then take mine."
