The nurse said, "Family members, please move aside. I'm taking him to the operating room."
Allen: "No, wait, where's Guli? I need to see him."
The nurse said, "At the door."
Allen rushed out, grabbing Gu Li's shoulder and pleading, while the nurse also pushed Liao Qian out.
Liao Qian: "Nurse, I don't need a blood transfusion, I don't need..."
The nurse said, "It depends on the situation during the surgery. Your blood clotting function isn't very good, and your platelet count is low. Just in case, Dr. Gu Li is here, so please don't worry..."
Upon hearing this, Allen resignedly released Guli, then pulled up the sleeve of his white coat to make sure there were no needle marks on his body. Allen spoke to Guli with a choked voice.
Allen: "No. Please, you can't do this."
Gu Li: "I'm here to save lives, I can't just watch him die."
Allen: "What are you going to do?"
Guli: "I kept Hades' umbilical cord blood just in case. Don't worry, there won't be any 'what ifs'."
Allen: "That's good, that's good."
Allen nodded and relaxed. Liao Qian grabbed Allen's blood, refusing to accept the fact that Gu Li had given him a blood transfusion. Several people pushed Liao Qian into the operating room, but he refused to get off the mobile hospital bed, and everyone tried to persuade him.
Liao Qian: "No... I don't need Gu Li's blood, no way."
Allen: "In Niujin City, only my father, Guli, and my little nephew have rare blood types. Liao Qian, don't worry, you'll be fine."
Liao Qian: "No, Gu Li, you can't have your blood drawn. I don't agree to you hurting yourself. I don't agree to you being hurt."
Gu Li: "It depends on your condition during the operation. If your blood clotting is good, you won't need me to give you a blood transfusion."
Liao Qian: "Let me see if you've drawn any blood, right?"
Gu Li rolled up his sleeve; there were no needle marks. Liao Qian relaxed, but still couldn't get off the hospital bed. The nurse looked helpless. Allen didn't know what to say to him. Lei Ting wanted to slap Liao Qian a few times, but why was he so stubborn when it came to himself?
An Ning: "Liao Qian, let go quickly, get the surgery done soon, and recover quickly..."
Liao Qian: "No..."
Thunder: "What exactly are you trying to do? If you don't have the surgery, what will you do if you die? You still want to get married? Are you going to get married carrying your ashes?"
Allen: "No, don't do this, Liao Qian. Don't worry, don't worry. After the surgery, I'll wait for you outside. As long as it's you who comes out, that's all that matters..."
Liao Qian: "Allen, then I wouldn't be complete, much less perfect... I... am not good enough for you..."
Allen: "No...don't say that. You are the most perfect. Even if you had all your organs replaced, you would still be the most special person. Liao Qian, I beg my God, please save you..."
Guli: "Allen, carry him to the operating table. I'm going to change my clothes."
Liao Qian slowly let go, resignedly letting Allen place him on the operating room bed. Gu Li changed into a set of protective clothing, and everyone came out of the operating table. On the operating table, Liao Qian could only pray that God would be kind enough not to transfuse Gu Li's blood.
Liao Qian: "Gu Li, I won't let you get hurt, I won't let you have your blood drawn, I won't allow it."
Gu Li: "Didn't you forbid me from getting close to you either?"
Liao Qian: "That's different. As long as you live well, don't do anything to hurt yourself, and don't get injured or disabled, that's fine. I don't want you to give me blood transfusions. Gu Li, your blood clotting function isn't good either. If you give me your blood, what will you do? No, no."
Gu Li: "You still have me in your heart."
Liao Qian: "So what? You're already married to Ariel and have a child."
Gu Li: "Stop talking, you're so excited you're bleeding again."
Liao Qian: "I beg you, please don't hurt yourself for my sake."
Gu Li: "You have to live up to expectations. If your blood clotting function is good, you won't need me to give you a blood transfusion."
Liao Qian: "I'll definitely be fine..."
Gu Li slowly injected the anesthetic. Liao Qian was still dazed and let go of Gu Li's clothes. Gu Li picked up the scalpel.
Guli: "I finally have the chance to touch you again."
This was the last thing Liao Qian heard before the anesthesia took effect; he fell into a deep sleep before he could even react.
In the corridor outside the hospital operating room, Lei Ting felt anxious, An Ning looked inside but couldn't see anything, and Allen was also restless, sitting on a chair in the corridor, covering his face with worry.
Suddenly, Allen heard a child call him "Uncle." Allen looked up and saw Ariel holding Hades not far from him. Ariel's red hair was tied up, and her green eyes were looking at Allen. She was wearing the tutu Allen had designed for her years ago. She gently put Hades down, and Hades ran towards Allen, hugging his leg and calling him "Uncle." Allen picked him up.
Hades: "Uncle."
Allen: "Little guy, you've grown up so much, you can really call me uncle now."
Alice watched this scene from a short distance away. Allen carried Hades over, looked at Ariel and then at Hades, before turning back to Thunder and speaking.
Allen: "Thunder, could you please look after Hades for me?"
Thunder: "Okay, little guy, come here."
Thunder picked up the little guy who looked exactly like Guli Allen. Hades' hair was red like Ariel's. Thunder and Anning were coaxing him and couldn't put him down.
Ariel looked at Allen for a long time without saying a word. Allen sent a message to his phone, took out a hummingbird brooch from his pocket, and put it on Ariel's chest.
Ariel: "You still kept it."
Allen: "This is the only one of your things. Return it to its rightful owner."
