Chapter 926: A Secret

The doctor took out the test results he brought with him, and placed them in front of Zhu Xianglan, saying, “The results are out.”

“So...” Zhu Xianglan felt like her chest was being congested by something, she did not even dare to breathe too loudly. She was afraid that the results the doctor gave were not successful, or that he was sorry. She wanted no apologies, nor did she want to hear the word sorry.

The doctor’s expression looked slightly relaxed as he said, “Congratulations Mrs. Su, the test results are pretty decent. Their compatibility markers are very high, they can definitely undergo the bone marrow transplant.”

“Really?” Zhu Xianglan stood up with a cry, feeling as though the thick fog before her eyes had finally dispersed. Her heart was still beating wildly, as she held her chest. For a brief moment, she felt like she could not breathe.

“You mean...” She held her breath.

“Their match is successful?”

“Yes,” the doctor nodded. “It was very successful, although the compatibility markers were not a complete match, she could still be a successful donor. I heard that...” The doctor paused in thought and asked, “Miss Yan has just given birth?”

Zhu Xianglan was a little reluctant to answer the question, but she nodded in the end, replying, “Yes, she has. She even gave birth to triplets.” The Lu family was so lucky. Not only was that woman fertile, but she even gave birth to three babies in one pregnancy. Is she a sow or what? How can she be so fertile, while my Ranran can no longer have children in the future?

With her illness, even if she recovered in the future, the doctor had advised against any pregnancies. This was because the possibility of genetic transmission was very high, and it may be harmful for the mother as well. She would not allow her daughter to take such a risk. Of course, Su Muran would not sacrifice her life for the sake of a child either.

“I see...” The doctor felt a tinge of regret, and asked, “If we had known earlier, we could’ve checked the babies’ umbilical cord blood. That would’ve been easier and safer.”

Umbilical cord blood?

Zhu Xianglan’s eyes brightened, but it dimmed again instantly. The blood from the umbilical cord. Surely, anyone would know that it would be a better sample. However, she did not think about it at the time, as she did not know that the Lu family had kept the children’s umbilical cord blood.

Even if she knew about it, the Lu family may not agree to hand over the child’s umbilical cord blood either.

Now, they would definitely still not agree to it. Hence, she had to, and she must find a way, no matter what. She would not let her daughter die, as she only had one daughter in her entire life. She only had Su Muran, her daughter was her everything and was all she had. She would do anything and everything for her.

“There’s something else.” The doctor took out another inspection report from his bag, saying, “I found something by chance, but I’ve checked it without your consent. The results are here, but please rest assured that I stand by my principles. I would not utter a single word about this to anyone.”

He understood the gravity of the situation, so he would pretend that he did not know anything and of course, he would never speak of it. He could not risk offending anyone, especially the Lu family. With Lu Yi’s temperament, he knew he would be skinned alive. He would have never agreed to do this, if he did not need money desperately.

All the residents of Sea City knew.

You may provoke heaven and hell, but you should never provoke Lu Yi.

“I’m going to prepare for the operation.” The doctor stood up, but he paused again and made things clear, “Mrs. Su, I’m only preparing for the surgery, but you need to make sure that she will be here to donate bone marrow for Miss Su.” This was the most important factor. If there was no donor, there was no way he could save Su Muran even if he was extremely skilled.

“Don’t worry, I’ll handle this. You just need to get ready for the surgery as soon as possible.”

Zhu Xianglan waved her hand, she had no time to elaborate more with the doctor. She had to make sure that the woman donated her bone marrow to her daughter, as soon as possible. It must happen, even if she had to steal or rob it from her.

She desperately needed that bone marrow.

Even if the Lu family found out about it, what could they do? After all, they could not kill them again. At most, they would simply cut ties with them completely. She clutched the report in her hand, she knew clearly that it was impossible to ask the person in question directly. Even if she begged, the person may not be willing too.

So, there were no other choices.

She narrowed her eyes, and tightly pursed her pale lips.

After the doctor had left, Zhu Xianglan started reading the stack of reports he had handed to her. At first, she seemed satisfied and relaxed. She had seen many of these reports recently, so even a layman like her would know how to read some of the data. Su Muran’s compatibility with that woman Yan Huan was extremely close. However, as she read further, her expression worsened and eventually turned ghastly pale. An overwhelming sense of utmost resentment and hatred surged within her

Suddenly, she pulled at the report in her hand forcefully, and tore them into pieces, before tossing everything into the bin.

This would be a secret that must never be unveiled. Just like the one twenty years ago, this would be a secret that would follow her to her grave.

“Mom, how was it?” Su Muran sat up quickly when she saw Zhu Xianglan. Her body was already extremely weak. It was almost the same every day and she could not even muster half an ounce of her strength. Day by day, she was simply waiting for death and exhausting what was left of her measly life.

She did not want to die, she wanted to live. She desperately wanted to live until she was old. Only then would she accept her demise.

Zhu Xianglan made her way over hurriedly, before sitting by Su Muran’s side and let out a smile. It had been eons since she smiled, or had such a relaxed smile on her face. However, there was an unspoken gloom in her eyes that no one could understand.

“Don’t worry.” She stroked Su Muran’s dry yellow hair gently. She was like a withering flower, as if she would dry up in an instant. Fortunately, there was a remedy and a chance. She did not have to bury her child yet.

“What do you mean, mom?” Su Muran’s eyes lightened up. Her initially vigorless face suddenly glowed with vitality. It was as though she had regained her will to fight against the clutch of death, and a glimmer of hope had emerged in the midst of despair.

However, it was not clear if it was her last spurt of life, or was it a real sign of recovery.

Zhu Xianglan promised herself that she would bring her daughter another chance at life.
