When Ye Wan arrived, Ye Cheng had already completed the rescue. He had been sent to the intensive care unit and his condition was critical.
She glanced at her younger brother before going to find the doctor who had performed the rescue. The doctor said they had already obtained Ye Cheng's medical records from his previous hospital. Therefore, the doctor regretfully informed Ye Wan, "Your brother's previous surgery was successful, but now he's experiencing severe rejection. His condition is very serious!"
"Then... what should we do?" Ye Wan's heart was pounding, and her chest felt intensely suffocated.
"The person who previously donated bone marrow to him, although their blood type matched, cannot be used again this time. Using it might cause secondary rejection, leading to severe sequelae for your brother, or even death... In other words, we must find someone with a 100% compatible blood type," the doctor explained.
"There's no one suitable... I searched for a long time, and only found one person." Ye Wan closed her eyes in despair, her hands trembling. She felt so suffocated, it was hard to breathe.
"Don't be too pessimistic. The database is updated daily, and perhaps a suitable person will appear. Let's transfer your brother to another hospital. The previous doctors will be better suited to formulate a treatment plan," the doctor said sympathetically towards the young boy, but he couldn't save everyone.
Ye Wan was truly devastated. Thinking of her brother's recent happy demeanor, her heart felt as if it were being twisted by a knife. She numbly completed the transfer procedures and, in an ambulance, returned to the original hospital.
Ye Cheng's attending physician's expression was also somber. For a patient like Ye Cheng, who had already met the discharge criteria, the chance of developing rejection was extremely, extremely small. They hadn't expected him to encounter this.
He could only regretfully inform Ye Wan that they needed to find a more suitable match, and it had to be within a week. Otherwise, even if Ye Cheng underwent surgery, he would suffer sequelae, with blindness and disability being possibilities.
Lin Zehan also learned of Ye Cheng's condition and had been helping to contact people to find a match, but there had been no progress.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. As Ye Cheng's situation became increasingly urgent, Ye Wan's mood grew heavier and heavier. The feeling of helplessness, as if the most important thing in her life was slipping away, brought her to the brink of collapse.
On the fifth day, the doctor called Ye Wan and delivered good news: a suitable match had been found.
Ye Wan rushed to the hospital, her heart filled with excitement. She looked at the doctor cautiously, afraid that the call was just a hallucination born from her emotional breakdown.
"Here is the information of the match. You can look at it yourself. The hospital has contacted the person, but they just refused," the doctor handed the information to Ye Wan.
When Ye Wan heard that the person had refused, her heart sank. But this time, no matter what it took, even if it cost her her own life, she would make the person donate bone marrow for her brother.
Excitedly, she pulled out the donor's information. When she saw the name, her pupils constricted sharply.
Gu... Gu Yunting?
Had she misread? Ye Wan rubbed her eyes. The name hadn't changed!
She couldn't believe it, thinking she might have had a dream due to her despair. She pinched herself hard. It hurt!
So, it wasn't a dream. It was really Gu Yunting!
"Ye Wan, only if this person agrees to donate bone marrow can Ye Cheng be saved. Otherwise, no one can save him," the doctor sighed helplessly.
Ye Wan didn't know how she left the hospital. When she came to her senses, she was sitting in a small park outside the hospital.
