Chapter Ninety-Six: No Surgery If You Don't Come



Gu Chengze looked at the words mysteriously and took out a letter from the corner.

Who writes letters these days? The only person He Lingchuan could think of was Cao Xue.

Sure enough, he could tell from the handwriting that it was written by Cao Xue.

The contents are not hard to guess; it's nothing more than some expressions of gratitude.

He Lingchuan's brows relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face: "Cao Xue said the matching was very successful, and if nothing unexpected happens, the surgery can be performed the day after tomorrow."

Gu Chengze slapped He Lingchuan on the shoulder, his smile wide: "You're something else, aren't you? You've got guts. Once Cao Xue is discharged from the hospital, I'll definitely have to thank you properly."

Gu Chengze winked at him as he spoke, and He Lingchuan immediately understood what he meant.

"Stop messing around."

He Lingchuan walked into the office and hesitated for a long time before speaking: "I won't be here after Cao Xue comes back. While I'm still here, feel free to ask me any questions you may have."

As soon as He Lingchuan finished speaking, Gu Chengze's lips fell into a deep frown.

He stared at the person in front of him in disbelief: "What did you say? I don't understand what this means? You want to switch jobs? Isn't the salary I'm paying you enough?"

He Lingchuan is a rare genius, and Gu Chengze would rather sell everything he owns than let him leave.

With He Lingchuan's talent, even if all he has left are pots and pans, He Lingchuan can still help them make a comeback.

Gu Chengze looked at the person in front of him with a serious expression and said softly, "You can't leave. Have you encountered some difficulties? Or is someone at the company gossiping?"

Gu Chengze is a very good boss. When he's not working, he gets along very well with everyone and doesn't restrict their freedom of speech.

Now that He Lingchuan has taken the initiative to leave, Gu Chengze is in a panic.

He Lingchuan reached out and gently patted Gu Chengze's hand to comfort him, saying softly, "It's a family matter."

He briefly recounted what Shen Yanxi had told him, and Gu Chengze grew increasingly angry as he listened, finally frowning and saying, "He's simply bullying me. The child isn't just hers; how can she use the child to threaten you?"

Gu Chengze was about to go and settle accounts with Shen Yanxi when He Lingchuan grabbed his hand to stop him: "It's no use if you go. Shen Yanxi won't give in, and if I stay here, I'm afraid I'll only cause you trouble."

He Lingchuan sighed as he spoke, he really couldn't bear to part with the entire laboratory.

His eyes were a little moist, and his gaze towards Gu Chengze was filled with helplessness.

What does "Cao Xue" mean?

His departure was largely due to Cao Xue; Gu Chengze couldn't believe that Cao Xue would just stand by and watch He Lingchuan leave.

He Lingchuan lowered his head, his voice low: "I haven't told her yet."

Cao Xue should be immersed in the joy of finding her heart's source right now, how could she have time to care about herself?

He Lingchuan grew impatient as he thought about it. He looked up at Gu Chengze and said, "It's okay if I leave. Cao Xue is mature now and can help you. If you have any problems in the future, feel free to come to me anytime."

It just so happens that Professor Zhao is short of a teaching assistant. Going there would not only allow me to continue my graduate studies, but also to conduct experiments, which would be a win-win situation.

Gu Chengze placed one hand on his chin; he was still unwilling to give up.

He hesitated for a long time before slowly saying, "Well, since you've already agreed to Shen Yanxi's request, I won't say anything more. But I still think it's a real shame for you to leave the lab like this. How about this: you can come work here and do experiments whenever you're free. I'll still pay you your salary. When you come, I'll give Cao Xue a day off, okay?"

He really couldn't bear to part with such a genius, and He Lingchuan was indeed moved by his suggestion.

He hesitated for a moment, then agreed under Gu Chengze's urging: "But I can't come every day. What if Shen Yanxi finds out..."

"Don't worry, I definitely won't let anyone find out you're still with me."

After saying this, Gu Chengze sighed: "To be honest, I really feel sorry for you. You should get a divorce now. Even if you find another woman, so what? Are you really going to stay single for the rest of your life because of Shen Yanxi?"

Gu Chengze's words were also the questions He Lingchuan wanted to ask Shen Yanxi.

He almost asked the question a few times, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided against it.

Even if he knew the answer, so what? Shen Yanxi would definitely say that he is the child's father and should put all his energy into the child.

In any case, the reason she prevents herself from interacting with others cannot be because she cares.

He Lingchuan sighed and was about to board the plane when he received a call from Cao Xue.

Her voice was weak as she cautiously asked herself, "Brother Lingchuan, I'm about to have surgery."

He Lingchuan gripped his phone tightly, feeling inexplicably nervous.

He hesitated for a while, and finally just said "um".

The person on the other end of the phone paused for a while before He Lingchuan heard them say, "Brother Lingchuan, can you come on the day I have surgery?"

He Lingchuan paused, not expecting her to invite him over directly.

He remained silent, trying to find a tactful way to refuse Cao Xue.

Before he could speak, Cao Xue said first, "Brother Lingchuan, I know you wasted a lot of time helping me find the source of my heart, and I am very grateful to you. So I hope that the first person I see when I wake up is you. Can you grant me this wish?"

He Lingchuan hesitated for a moment, but still didn't give her a definite answer: "If I have time, I'll go over."

He Lingchuan could clearly feel the person opposite him take a deep breath. Worried that he might upset Bai Xue, He Lingchuan lowered his voice and said gently, "Cao Xue, you should take good care of yourself. I'll definitely come to see you when I have time, okay?"

"I'll talk to Mr. Gu and ask him to give you a day off."

Cao Xue made it clear that she wanted He Lingchuan to come and watch his surgery, and she wouldn't give up no matter how much He Lingchuan refused.

"Cao Xue, I..."

He Lingchuan frowned, but finally agreed.

This was the source of his heart that he had painstakingly found, and of course he wanted to see Cao Xue full of vitality more than anyone else.

If Shen Yanxi hadn't stopped him, he would have gone even without Cao Xue's prompting.

But this time, he wavered.

If Shen Yanxi finds out that she went there, she definitely won't let it go, and might even hide the child.

He Lingchuan felt a pang of panic. He absolutely could not let his two children leave him; he couldn't take that risk.

He Lingchuan didn't call Cao Xue again until the day of the surgery.

Cao Xue was the same. Just when He Lingchuan thought Cao Xue had forgotten about it, Cao Wei called again: "He Lingchuan, what did you say to my sister? She won't have surgery unless she sees you. Hurry up and come over."
