"Brother, what do you really think of the taste?"
Seeing Lin Jie silently taste each dish on the table, Lin Miao felt a bit nervous. She thought the food tasted fine!
Lin Jie suddenly smiled and nodded, "Not bad, very good, it shows about thirty percent of my skills."
"It turns out the difference between care and carelessness is significant. What they call a lack of talent is just an excuse for oneself!"
Lin Miao felt relieved and said, "Seriously, you were making worried on purpose! Hurry up and eat, or the food will get cold!"
Halfway through the al, Lin Miao hesitated for a mont, then said, "Brother, Christmas Eve is coming up. My seniors from the studio are planning to go out for a gathering. I want to go too!"
Lin Miao had been studying at Li Hong Studio for so ti and gradually got to know the seniors there.
These people couldn't stay idle; they often went out to play together at night, clubbing and dancing. Lin Miao had been invited several tis but had always declined!
Because Lin Jie had long advised her not to go to bars or such ssy places with people she wasn't familiar with.
This ti, since Teacher Li Hong would also attend the gathering, Lin Miao felt tempted and wanted to relax for a while.
"Oh, where's the gathering going to be?" Lin Jie inquired further.
"It's not decided yet; probably sowhere like a bar!"
Seeing Lin Jie's expression starting to darken, Lin Miao quickly added, "Teacher Li Hong and several other teachers from the studio will also attend. It's a group event."
"Brother, I want to go. I want to have so fun!"
Seeing Lin Miao's slightly pitiful expression, Lin Jie's heart softened. To be honest, both Lin Jie and Lin Miao had quite a tough childhood, and the words 'carefree' and 'happy' seed a bit distant from them!
Now that his health had recovered, and Lin Miao's vision had restored, and they had the financial ans, it seed rightful to make up for so lost joy and seek so fun.
With this in mind, Lin Jie nodded and said, "You can go, but you're not allowed to drink. You know very well how poor your alcohol tolerance is!"
"Thank you, brother, I promise I won't touch a drop of alcohol!" Lin Miao bead with joy and said enthusiastically, "Brother, let serve you so more soup. You need to replenish your energy!"
After dinner, after tidying up the dining area and drinking so herbal dicine, they both lay comfortably on the sofa in the living room, watching TV together.
Around nine o'clock, the doorbell rang, bringing an unexpected guest!
Chen Lan!
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Chen Lan got straight to the point. She pulled out a laptop from her bag and presented a set of brain CT scans to Lin Jie.
"ningioma!"
At first glance, Lin Jie identified the type of brain tumor!
Most of these tumors are benign, usually growing slowly, with a disease course lasting generally from two to four years, and sotis even seven or eight or as long as ten years.
Moreover, these tumors can grow quite large, yet the symptoms are mild, making them hard to detect!
The tumor in the CT scan on the computer had a maximum diater of over eight centiters, located on the left side of the frontal lobe, making surgical removal relatively easy.
After reviewing the CT scans, Lin Jie returned the laptop to Chen Lan and said, "You should know, the difficulty of removing this tumor isn't significant. Your ntor, Dr. Qi Xingfen, should be able to handle this surgery well!"
Lin Jie's underlying ssage was that this level of surgery wasn't worth his involvent or necessary.
"I know!"
Chen Lan put away the laptop and softly said, "I also know that this kind of tumor can easily recur and mutate after surgery. The recurrence rate within five years is three percent, and in twenty-five years, it's twenty-one percent."
"If the surgery is done thoroughly and perfectly, the recurrence rate and ti can be significantly reduced and delayed. You are the best neurosurgeon I know, far surpassing Dr. Qi!"
Lin Jie was silent for a while, then asked, "Who is the patient to you?"
"Fiancé!"
Chen Lan sighed and said, "I've been with him for three years, and we plan to get married before the Spring Festival! A couple of days ago, he suddenly had a seizure, sothing he had never experienced before."
"At the ti, I suspected he had a brain tumor, and sure enough, after the examination, he did. Fortunately, he has this benign ningioma."
Hearing her explanation, Lin Jie sighed inwardly and gently said, "You're a professional, so you probably don't need to remind you, do you?"
Chen Lan gave a wry smile, nodded, and said, "I understand what you want to say. Judging by the size of this tumor, it's been there for at least five years."
"A brain tumor can severely affect a person's personality and preferences. Once the tumor is removed and he regains his health, his personality and preferences might change dramatically, turning him into a familiar stranger. He may no longer love ."
"So..."
Tears slowly rolled down Chen Lan's cheeks as she said sorrowfully, "For the past three years, I wasn't in love with him, but with the tumor in his brain! Removing the tumor is equivalent to killing my lover."
She took the tissue handed to her by Lin Miao, wiped her tears, and managed to force a smile, saying, "However, in this situation, I have no choice. What I can do for him is to find the very best doctor for him so that he can recover completely!"
"Even if the recovered version of him would leave forever!"
Lin Miao was so touched that her eyes turned red, and she pleaded, "Brother, please help Sister Chen Lan."
Lin Jie said sowhat helplessly, "Chen Lan, I sympathize with your situation. But the An Family's operating room has been dismantled. Even if I wanted to help you, I can't!"
Chen Lan assured him, "Dr. Lin, I thought about this before coming here. I have a way to let you perform the surgery at Donghua Hospital without anyone knowing. Please, help !"
Then she explained her plan in detail to Lin Jie.
After hearing it, Lin Jie couldn't help but nod. Although the solution seed childish, it had a high chance of success.
But there was one concern he raised bluntly, "Right now, your boyfriend, your fiancé, trusts you and can cooperate perfectly with you. But after the surgery, what happens? At that ti, will he still trust you?"
"If he reveals everything, or even files a lawsuit against us, what do we do then?"
Chen Lan was taken aback. This was sothing she hadn't thought of.
She grew anxious and said, "Dr. Lin, let go back and think, think more! I will surely find a perfect solution, definitely!"
After sending off Chen Lan, Lin Miao asked, "Brother, can a brain tumor really change a person's personality?"
Lin Jie nodded and said, "It's true! Our brain is extrely complex. The pressure exerted by a tumor can cause changes in us without us even realizing it!"
Lin Miao responded with an "Oh," then after a mont of silence, suddenly said, "Brother, if I ever have such a tumor, please don't operate on . Because I don't want to beco soone else!"
