North Lantau Hospital - outside Chengdong's room. 4:30 pm.
"She is not Xue, she is Chengdong's fiancée, Michelle." Jiale said.
"There are people in this world who look so much alike! Not only do they look alike, but they also have the same name! It's unbelievable. And, it's such a coincidence that she is the fiancée of both of you brothers." Scott said in surprise.
"Scott, let's get back to the point. You said Michelle's bone marrow is very suitable for Chengdong. If the operation is successful, will he have a high chance of survival?" Jiale asked happily.
"With his current condition, it's hard to say. I read his examination report yesterday, and his condition is not very serious. I just hope that his cancer cells have not spread to other parts of his body. If so, even the bone marrow transplant will not be ideal." Scott replied.
Jiale and Michelle were very worried after hearing this. Scott looked at their expressions...
"Don't be so sad. Maybe it's a miracle? I wish Michelle and Chengdong a happy wedding! Have you set a date?" Scott asked.
"Not yet, but Chengdong has proposed to me in Singapore. So I decided that once the operation is successful, Chengdong and I will hold our wedding in the church in Discovery Bay." Michelle answered.
Jiale looked at Michelle in surprise. JiaLe took Michelle's hand.....
"Let's go to the corridor to talk." JiaLe said.
At the corridor. 4:15.
"Gu Jia Le, what's wrong with you?! Let go of my hand!" Michelle asked angrily.
"Michelle, are you really going to marry Chengdong?! You know that even if the operation is successful, it may relapse." Jiale asked anxiously.
"I have decided. He has paid so much for me, and now it is my turn to pay for him." Michelle answered seriously.
"Michelle, if anything happens in the future, Jiale will be by your side." Jiale held Michelle's hand and said.
"Thank you. But from today on, we should keep a distance. I will still publish and write storybooks. As for movies, you should find someone else. I don't want Chengdong to misunderstand me again. I want to cherish every day with Chengdong." Michelle answered.
Michelle left after saying that.
After that, they rarely met again.
Two days later , Michelle is going to the hospital to have a transplant operation with Chengdong.
In North Lantau Hospital - outside the operating room. 9 am.
"JiaLe. Why are you wearing a doctor's gown today?" Mr. Song asked.
"I handed over my film company to Eric a few days ago. In fact, I re-applied for my medical license last month. It was approved two days ago. I decided to help Chengdong with Scott. After all, I was the one who performed the operation ten years ago." JiaLe answered.
"JiaLe, thank you very much. You are really a good brother to Chengdong." Mrs. Song said.
JiaLe entered Michelle's ward.
"You... why are you dressed like this?!" Michelle asked in surprise.
"I officially returned to my job as a doctor yesterday." Jia Le answered.
"Yes, thanks to Jia Le, the famous cancer doctor, for performing the operation." Scott said.
"But you also need to retake the medical license. How come it's so fast!?" Michelle asked in surprise.
"That was a month ago. I didn't plan to be a doctor again. But in February of this year, I saw Chengdong's condition and decided to return to being a doctor. I hope I can cure him." Jiale answered.
"Brother Jiale, thank you." Michelle said.
"No more talking, you should also prepare to enter the operating room." Jiale answered.
"Ms. Chen, with Dr. Gu Jiale here, Chengdong's operation will definitely be successful." Scott said.
Michelle and the unconscious Chengdong were pushed into the operating room together.
In the operating room. 9:30 in the morning.
Michelle and Chengdong's bed frames were pushed to each other's side.
"Doctor Gu, can I hold my fiancé's hand during the operation?" Michelle asked.
Jia Le nodded.
Michelle and Chengdong were injected with anesthetics.
The operation lasted for six hours before it was completed.
Mrs. Song and Mr. Song were anxiously waiting outside the operating room.
Outside the operating room. 4:30 in the afternoon.
Jia Le and Scott came out of the operating room...
"Jia Le, how are Cheng Dong and Michelle?!" Mr. and Mrs. Song asked anxiously.
"Congratulations! The operation went very smoothly! We will push them to the same ward, which is easier to take care of. You can go eat something first." Jia Le replied.
"Why don't we go eat together." Mrs. Song said.
"Okay then. Scott, help me look after them. I will go to dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Song and tell them about Cheng Dong's condition." Jia Le replied.
"Yes Jia Le. No problem." Scott said.
"Uncle, aunty, let's go to the cafeteria for dinner." Jiale answered.
In the cafeteria. 5:30 pm.
"Uncle, aunty, what do you want to eat? I'll go buy it." Jiale asked.
"Let uncle buy it. You've worked hard in the operating room for six hours." Mr. Song answered.
"Okay then." Jiale said.
"Jiale, thank you very much for being a doctor and helping Chengdong with the operation." Mrs. Song answered.
"Because Chengdong asked me for something in February this year, I decided to retake the exam." Jiale said.
February 10, 2008. Hong Kong (Causeway Bay)
Causeway Bay Doctors Sports Club - Swimming Pool.
4pm.
Shengdong swam less than one lap when his back hurt. Jiale helped him up to rest.
"What's wrong? Did you have too much fun playing with Michelle and your body got worse?" Jiale said with a smile.
"No, I... my back hurts again, and I often have sudden fevers and nosebleeds recently." Chengdong answered with difficulty.
"What!? When did it start?" Jiale asked.
"It should be the end of January. I have quit the modeling I'm working. I fell down in Taichung because of the pain during training." Chengdong answered.
"Chengdong, you'd better go for another physical examination." Jiale said.
"Jiale, I have a request. If my illness relapses, can you be my attending physician? I can only trust you." Chengdong said.
"Don't talk nonsense! You and Michelle are getting married soon! Don't say unlucky words!" Jiale said angrily.
"But I have a bad feeling." Chengdong said sadly.
"Don't worry, if there is such a day, Brother Jiale will definitely help you with surgery again." Jiale answered.
May 15, 2008. Hong Kong (Lantau Island)
North Lantau Hospital (canteen). 5pm.
"Uncle Song, thank you for treating me." Jiale said.
"Thank you for telling us everything about our son. This son has been very withdrawn since he was a child. It's all caused by us. Fortunately, it's not too late to make up for it now." Mr. Song replied happily.
"Uncle Song, since Aunty Song went to the toilet, I might as well prepare you mentally. Although Chengdong's operation was successful, I found that Chengdong's liver had some problems during the operation. I will let him take medicine to see how it goes." Jiale said.
"What?!" Mr. Song asked in surprise.
"Only me, Dr. Scott and you know about this. Don't let others know, especially Chengdong himself." Jiale replied.
"Okay." Mr. Song said.
In the ward. 6pm.
Michelle woke up When she came, she saw Chengdong in another bed. She pulled the drip open and got up. Mrs. Song immediately pulled her.....
"Xiaoxue, what are you doing!? You just had an operation and can't get out of bed!" Mrs. Song said nervously.
"Auntie, I'm fine. I'm very worried about Chengdong! Let me get out of bed!" Michelle replied.
"Oh, I really can't do anything with you. Come, auntie will help you get out of bed. Slowly." Mrs. Song said.
Jia Le was about to enter the ward and witnessed everything.
Michelle sat by Chengdong's bed, she stroked Chengdong's face.....
"Adong, it's all my fault! You have suffered so much grievance. After we get married, I will protect you tightly. I will never let go of your hand again." Michelle said crying.
Tears fell on Chengdong's face, awakening Chengdong.
"Michelle...Michelle! Don't...don't go! Don't...don't leave me again." Chengdong replied weakly.
Michelle kissed Chengdong.
