"Wow, it’s beautiful, so magnificent! The blue lighting effect on the ground looks truly amazing," exclaid Xu ijia.
Upon hearing the satisfied tone of Xu ijia’s voice, a sense of relief settled in Ding Yue’s heart.
Being able to fulfill this seriously ill young girl’s tiny wish seed to be what he, as a part of Mist City Arts and Science University could and should do.
"It’s breathtaking! I need to get better soon so that I can see it myself," Xu ijia said, her voice full of resilience.
"I will be waiting for you at Mist City Arts and Science University," replied Ding Yue with a smile.
"All right, Principal Ding, see you at Mist City Arts and Science University!"
Xu Dongcheng let his daughter Xu ijia continue watching the video call for a while, that displayed the Book Ship Library and its lighting effects. After a few words of advice telling her to rest well, he ended the video call.
Huang Youjie, not far away, also ca over.
"Yue."
After Huang Youjie arrived, he was about to discuss sothing with Ding Yue.
However, Ding Yue didn’t let him speak. Instead, he himself asked about Xu Dongcheng’s daughter: "Principal Xu, what illness does your daughter have?"
"Liver cancer, discovered this year. She’s been hospitalized ever since, receiving the best treatnt," Xu Dongcheng sighed before he responded.
"Considering today’s dical technology, can’t she have a liver transplant?" asked Ding Yue.
After all, Principal Xu Dongcheng was only in his forties, his daughter must be in her teens.
But Principal Xu Dongcheng shook his head: "The transplant surgery wouldn’t be a problem. The difficulty lies in the scarcity of matching liver donors. Doctors even indicated that it may take a long ti to find a suitable donor."
"She is only 17, I thought with financial stability at ho, she could lead a worry-free life," Xu’s emotions fell as he continued speaking.
Hearing Principal Xu Dongcheng say this, Ding Yue truly felt sorry for Xu ijia.
The pri of one’s life at seventeen, her family conditions were extrely good. Principal Xu Dongcheng was indeed a trustee of Westlight University, definitely not lacking in funds.
Yet she was suffering from this illness. If an appropriate liver donor wasn’t found soon, Xu Dongcheng would have to watch his daughter’s life fade away over the years.
"Sigh."
Ding Yue also couldn’t help sighing, as he patted Xu Dongcheng’s back comfortingly.
"Principal Ding, if truly there’s no hope at the end, I wish to bring her here to the Book Ship Library in person. She says that, at her last mont, she wants to sit in the open reading area of the library, bask in the sun, read books, and then peacefully depart from this world," Xu Dongcheng looked up, forced a smile and said.
Upon hearing the conversation between Principal Ding and Principal Xu Dongcheng, and learning about Xu ijia’s condition, Wen Ruohan was deeply moved to tears.
The news was indeed heartbreaking to hear.
"Hmm," Ding Yue nodded and reassured, "Principal Xu, don’t worry, it will surely work out!"
"Yue, what is this all about?"
Huang Youjie had just arrived and didn’t know what was going on. He leaned over and asked Ding Yue in a low voice.
Ding Yue took Huang Youjie aside and briefly explained Principal Xu and his daughter’s ordeal to him.
"This... this is so unfortunate."
Upon hearing this, Huang Youjie felt mournful for Principal Xu.
But there was nothing either Huang Youjie or even Ding Yue could do in this situation.
However, fortunately, Principal Xu Dongcheng’s family was wealthy. They could afford the best dical treatnt for his daughter Xu ijia, which could extend her life for a few years.
Yet, just like what Principal Xu Dongcheng ntioned, if a suitable liver donor couldn’t be found for the transplant, the outco would inevitably be beyond their control.
Ding Yue indeed wanted to help old Xu, but the problem was beyond him. His Mist City Arts and Science University couldn’t resolve an issue like cancer, a super Grim Reaper.
There was no other way, except praying for Principal Xu’s daughter. He hoped that a suitable donor liver would be found soon.
"Principal Ding, I am deeply grateful that my daughter got to see the Book Ship Library lights tonight. She loved it and said that if her condition improved, she would definitely choose to attend Mist City Arts and Science University. Hehe, my daughter is a very dedicated student!"
Xu Dongcheng stepped forward with a smile and said to Ding Yue.
A dedicated student!
Of course, she would be welcod!
If a dedicated student attended Mist City Arts and Science University, they would certainly be considered an absolute genius!
But...
The prerequisite was that Principal Xu Dongcheng’s daughter must successfully recover from the surgery.
"Alright, we ardently welco her!" Ding Yue also nodded with a smile, trying to lighten the mournful mood.
"With the viewing of the lighting effects at the Book Ship Library out of the way, we should shut it off, it’s really a waste of electricity," Xu Dongcheng joked.
"No problem, the students of the school also like to watch these lighting effects," Ding Yue responded. He glanced at Huang Youjie, suddenly recalling that Huang Youjie had sothing to talk about earlier, and asked, "Oh right Huang, didn’t you ntion earlier that you had sothing to discuss with ?"
"Yes, I have sothing. It wasn’t convenient to talk just now. It’s about one of our law students, Liu Ping. Do you know about his family situation?"
Huang Youjie nodded and said.
"Liu Ping... of course, I know him, the student who is adept at the tenon-mortise craftsmanship," Ding Yue imdiately recalled upon hearing the na. Liu Ping had presented him with a Luban Lock crafted with tenon-mortise workmanship, which was kept on his office desk.
"That’s right, do you know why Liu Ping chose to study law at our school?"
"Why?"
"Well, it’s a long story. I learned of it inadvertently during a chat with Liu Ping. After asking him, I found out about his family’s situation," Huang Youjie told Ding Yue with a heavy expression.
This piqued Ding Yue’s curiosity.
Why did Liu Ping choose to study law at Mist City Arts and Science University? Could there be other circumstances?
