Lin Jie nodded, "Alright! Let tell you again about tomorrow's experintal surgery."
"I will perform a laparoscopic surgery to take a piece about two centiters long and half a centiter wide from your diaphragm to transplant there. After a successful transplant, there will be two to three weeks of observation and testing."
"During this phase, you will experience a lot of discomfort, such as prolonged pain, difficulty in movent, and so on."
"And..."
Lin Jie emphasized, "You also need to be psychologically prepared to beco a guinea pig, as you will not only be watched by many but will also undergo various tests."
"Among these, all sorts of awkward sexual activity tests are indispensable."
"I hope you can be fully ntally prepared for this."
Cui Shanshan smiled gently and said, "Here, you are all dical experts, and I am your test subject."
"Although you will conduct various tests on , you will not look down on or ridicule ."
"Expert Lin, perhaps you don't know, but I have faced too much discrimination, exclusion, ridicule, and even beatings since I was young."
"If I didn't have a big heart, I wouldn't have been able to survive."
Cui Shanshan seriously said, "Expert Lin, rest assured, I have no issues here."
"In that case, you can calmly prepare for the surgery at nine tomorrow morning..."
After leaving the ward, Lin Jie went to the plastic surgery departnt to discuss so specific issues about tomorrow's surgery with the departnt director, Guan Yifan...
Around 4:30, Lin Jie left the hospital building and got into the Phaeton car.
Qin Gang started the car and asked, "Going ho?"
Lin Jie thought for a mont, then decided, "Go to Kexin's company."
When he arrived at Zhongheng Plaza in the Lower District of Binhai, it was already nearly 5:30. Just after stepping out of the elevator, Lin Jie saw Lin Miao coming out from an office holding two packs of A4 paper.
Upon seeing Lin Jie, Lin Miao ran over happily and asked, "Bro, are you here to pick up from work?"
Lin Jie took out a tissue to wipe the sweat from the tip of her nose, saying, "I ca to talk to Kexin about sothing."
Lin Miao responded, "Oh," then asked, "Brother, are you planning to have a romantic dinner with Sister Kexin?"
Sensing Lin Miao's mood shift, Lin Jie patted her head and said, "Miaomiao, this ti I need to discuss sothing very important with Kexin, so I can't have dinner with you."
"I understand."
Lin Miao smiled and said, "Sister Kexin is in her office, you can go find her. I have two more things to finish before leaving. Brother, I'll head off now."
Watching Lin Miao run back into an office, Lin Jie finally stepped up to An Kexin's office.
He nodded at her secretary, Zou Manqing, and then pushed the door open, seeing An Kexin holding a desk phone, sternly reprimanding the person on the other end.
Lin Jie sat down in the reception area, made himself a cup of tea, and quietly sipped it.
After five or six minutes, An Kexin ca over and chided, "Ah Jie, why didn't you call in advance? I'm quite busy today, so you'll have to wait for a bit before we can have dinner together."
Lin Jie patted the sofa next to him and slowly said, "Put the work aside for now, I have to talk to you about sothing."
An Kexin was slightly taken aback, sat down beside Lin Jie, and asked with concern, "Ah Jie, has sothing happened?"
Lin Jie took a sip of tea, pondered for a mont, and said, "The matter goes back to last year's Christmas Eve..."
Hearing the heaviness in Lin Jie's voice, An Kexin felt a pang of concern and said, "I rember last Christmas Eve; that's when my watch was stolen."
"I clearly rember you leaving the bar with Miaomiao."
Lin Jie nodded, "Yes, Miaomiao and I left the bar together, and we were knocked out in the parking lot when fetching the car..."
"What, knocked out?"
An Kexin was startled, gripping Lin Jie's hand tightly and asking, "Ah Jie, did sothing terrible happen? Don't worry, no matter what it is, I will be with you."
Lin Jie forced a smile, squeezed An Kexin's hand, and said, "Sothing did happen, but it's not as terrible as you think..."
Then Lin Jie recounted the events of that night in detail.
In the face of An Kexin's shocked expression, Lin Jie continued, "At the ti, I suspected this might be the work of my parents, so I asked Brother Kong Mingqing to investigate."
An Kexin cautiously asked, "Ah Jie, did you find out about your biological parents?"
Lin Jie's face turned bitter, "Actually, I've known who my father is for a long ti."
He recounted his visit to the Capital City to treat a forr head nad Qian, and a conversation with a young woman. "After comparing the details, I am sure that my and Miaomiao's biological father is from the Xie Family in the Capital City."
"This biological father, upon learning of our existence, not only didn't recognize us but also knocked us out and secretly took my bone marrow for treatnt..."
Lin Jie mocked, "Such a worthless father, I absolutely won't acknowledge."
"I've kept this matter hidden in my heart, telling no one, and Miaomiao knows nothing."
"But now, I fear this secret might not be kept for long."
An Kexin wrapped her arms around Lin Jie's shoulders and asked, "Ah Jie, have the Xie Family people contacted you?"
"No!"
Lin Jie shook his head and said, "I just found out today that the identity of Miaomiao and I is no longer a secret in the Capital City for quite a few people."
"It's just that they're all waiting for that old Xie family guy to die, so they haven't exposed this matter."
Before An Kexin could ask further, Lin Jie recounted everything he learned from Shao Deyao that morning.
"Even if it's the most wonderful, perfect family that abandoned Miaomiao and , I wouldn't acknowledge them, let alone such a deplorable Xie Family."
"I'm just worried about Miaomiao..."
With a heart full of pain, Lin Jie said, "I know Miaomiao has always fantasized that it was so unavoidable reason that forced our parents to leave us."
"She has always hoped that one day father and mother could co back..."
"In fact, I had similar fantasies myself before..."
At this point, Lin Jie's nose suddenly tingled.
He quickly covered his face with both hands and said, "I don't know how to tell Miaomiao about this."
"Miaomiao has led a hard life; after our grandfather passed away, she has been the one holding up the family. This beautiful fantasy has been her ntal support."
"And now, it seems this ntal support is about to be shattered..."
As An Kexin watched, crystal tears seeped through his fingers.
This was the first ti she had seen Lin Jie cry.
In her mind, Lin Jie, who had overco so many difficulties, was like a fragile reed swaying with the wind, yet resilient, never falling.
Seeing Lin Jie so heartbroken, An Kexin's eyes reddened, and she held him in her arms to comfort him, "Ah Jie, Ah Jie, don't be sad, you and Miaomiao are not the sa people you used to be."
"You have , my father, Keng, Sister Xiaoxiao, and so many people who love you both..."
This issue had been pent up in Lin Jie's heart for a long ti, causing him imnse discomfort.
Talking about it with An Kexin gave Lin Jie a sense of relief.
However, once this emotional floodgate was opened, it could not be closed again.
Lin Jie thought of all the difficult past experiences, the deceased grandparents, the bitter struggles with Miaomiao, the imagined images of his parents, and the reality of the Xie Family...
A wave of uncontrollable complex emotions surged from within, and Lin Jie couldn't hold back and began to sob in An Kexin's arms.
At first, Lin Jie tried to suppress his sobs,
but his crying grew louder, as if he were releasing all the accumulated pain and suffering from years past...
An Kexin, feeling the sorrow in Lin Jie's cries, held him tightly and silently shed tears with him...
At this mont, the office door was gently pushed open.
Lin Miao hurried in.
Seeing the scene before her, her eyes imdiately reddened, and she couldn't help but cry out, fearfully asking, "Brother, what's wrong? Please don't scare ."
