"What did you say? You...your husband?"
Su Ying nodded and sighed.
"Yes, my husband and I have discussed it and decided to have the surgery, and I will be the surgeon."
Zhu Zhiguo didn't know what to say for a moment. He thought about the rumors outside that the patients were looking for death. There were even more outrageous reports that the patients had a grudge against Su Ying and wanted to take revenge on her.
Only then did he understand that it was the couple's love for each other that really mattered.
He was silent for a long time and then said to Su Ying.
"I hope you can succeed, Su Ying."
"Thanks"
The operation was prepared for more than a month and was finally almost ready. Su Ying had almost conquered all the old professors, and only Professor Fu was left. Gu Jinghong was originally his patient, but now Su Ying wanted to perform the operation on him. Professor Fu could not accept it. The most important thing was that he did not want to watch Gu Jinghong die on the operating table with his own eyes.
Su Ying later understood his concerns and stopped forcing him. She picked out several old professors who had the best rapport with her, and after a simulation, she formally prepared Gu Jinghong for the operation.
He couldn't eat the day before and had to maintain good physical strength, and the anesthesiology department and other departments also fully cooperated.
On November 25, Gu Jinghong officially underwent surgery.
Su Ying held his hand and asked softly.
"Are you scared?"
"You, what am I afraid of, Su Ying? Wait until we get out of this together, and I have something to tell you."
Gu Jinghong's eyes were gentle. This was the first time he showed his feelings for Su Ying without any concealment.
Liu Yunshi and Zhou Yichen stood on her side, and she almost broke her nails. Why did Jinghong look at Su Ying with such eyes? She couldn't understand why Gu Jinghong trusted Su Ying so much.
Su Ying's heart beat wildly. She tried to calm herself down and smiled at Gu Jinghong in a reproachful manner.
"I'm going to get the scalpel soon. Whatever you want to say, wait until I come out of the operating room. Don't let it affect my mood."
Gu Jinghong stared at her closely, a hint of regret flashed across his eyes, but he quickly hid it.
"Okay, let's talk about it when we get out."
He looked towards the empty corridor, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said to the nurse beside him.
"Come on, let's go in."
The nurses pushed the bed into the operating room. Liu Yunshi chased after them while crying, sobbing and advising Gu Jinghong not to have the surgery because he would die.
Gu Jinghong smiled at her and said in a deep voice.
"Yunshi, I want to live like a human being. I want to protect the people I care about."
Liu Yunshi stopped abruptly, her face covered with tear marks and her lips pale. She stared at Gu Jinghong as he moved further and further away from her. She could no longer make out his expression, but the smile he had just shown seemed to be engraved in Liu Yunshi's mind, stinging her heart with pain.
Someone to protect? Who was he trying to protect? So, he even risked his life to undergo surgery, just for… the person he wanted to protect?
This realization made her unacceptable. She couldn't accept that someone else had snatched Gu Jinghong away. She had liked him first, so why was he not the one to protect her? She was unwilling to accept this.
Su Ying needed to change clothes, disinfect, and put on gloves. She straightened up and looked towards the corridor.
“No one from the Gu family came.”
Zhou Yichen stood beside her at some point and spoke in a low voice.
