Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Give It Your All

Mu Lingyun was silent. She knew that the surgery had to be attempted with all her might.

Because the condition of the patient had worsened to the point where immediate surgery was the only hope. Delaying the surgery would mean no hope at all.

“Even if the surgery is arranged immediately, the probability of saving him is only twenty percent. Are you clear about this?” she said softly.

The family members nodded solemnly, “We are aware.”

“Please get up. Someone will come to have you sign the confirmation later.” After saying this, Mu Lingyun left.

The surgery was scheduled for the next morning. Due to the suddenness of the event, she hadn’t informed Ji Luochen, so he didn’t come this time.

Even though Mu Lingyun gave her all, the surgery was still not considered a success.

It could only be said that the patient’s life was extended by a few months.

Moreover, given the patient’s condition, a second surgery was no longer possible.

In a few months, death would still come and take the patient away.

After learning about this, the family still thanked her.

Mu Lingyun locked herself in her office, threw her cellphone aside, and sat holding her knees until the evening.

This situation made her realize that not everything in this world would wait until she was ready to happen.

During dinner time, Mu Lingyun still had not come out, Bai Shanya initially wanted to break the door open to check on her, but remembering that Ji Luochen’s fingerprint could also open Mu Lingyun’s office lock, since he had been present during her recent surgeries and likely had his fingerprint recorded.

So, he sent Ji Luochen a message.

Bai Shanya: Crown Prince, your girl locked herself in her office right after coming out of the operating room. She hasn’t eaten lunch or dinner. Do you want to come and see her?

Ji Luochen: She had surgery today?

Seeing the question, Bai Shanya explained the situation to Ji Luochen.

Within half an hour, Ji Luochen was at the facility.

When Ji Luochen opened the door, he saw the office was dark inside; the blackout curtains were drawn.

The girl was sitting on the couch, her feet also on the couch. She was hugging her knees, her face buried in her knees, her breath was faint.

The small bundle gave off a pitiful and lonely aura.

Ji Luochen couldn’t bear to see her like this; it pained his heart slightly.

He walked over, hugged her from behind, and hung his chin on her shoulder, whispering, “Why are you sitting here without eating or drinking? Don’t you feel hungry or thirsty?”

“You came?” Mu Lingyun turned around, and after seeing it was Ji Luochen, she broke free from his embrace and turned to hug him tightly, nestling into his chest.

Only when she distinctly felt his warmth, felt his real presence, did she feel somewhat better.

Ji Luochen, with his hand on her head buried in his chest, rubbed it, then asked softly, “What’s wrong? I heard from Bai Shanya that the surgery wasn’t a complete failure. It ultimately extended his life by a few months. It’s not the worst outcome.”

“I just feel that perhaps not everything in this world waits for me to be ready before happening. Maybe, by the time I am ready, it will already be too late, and nothing can be done,” Mu Lingyun said dully.

Just like in her previous life, she had always been studying medicine, but she had never gone to find him initially.

It wasn’t until she felt she was ready to improve his health condition and went to look for him that she could no longer find anything.

Perhaps in this life, she couldn’t wait any longer.

She did not want to wait until the situation suddenly worsened and then be powerless to do anything about it.
