Chapter 25

The successful match was a middle-aged man of about 40 years old of Chinese descent living in country M. His HLA match matched all nine points, and he was in good health, making him very eligible for donation.

Zhang Chengye was also very excited when he heard the news. He thought he would have to wait for a long time, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth this time. He bought a big cake and took it to the hospital the next afternoon.

Each of the little nurses in the ward was given a piece of cake. Li Xi was afraid that they would disturb Chu Yan's rest, so he drove Zhang Chengye out almost as soon as they finished eating.

Without the doctor's permission, Li Xi didn't dare to eat these things for Chu Yan, so Chu Yan didn't even taste the cake he bought.

Now all the food he eats is made at home, and all the tableware and tableware need to be disinfected, just to prevent re-infection.

Chu Yan looked at the remaining half of the white porridge and shook his head. He had already eaten a lot under Li Xi's persuasion and did not want to eat any more.

Li Xi saw the discomfort on his face and was no longer reluctant. Because of the side effects of chemotherapy drugs, his appetite has always been bad.

After dinner, Li Xi went to the balcony to make a phone call. It was about the match. The person was actually unwilling to accept the high match. Later, Li Xi went to the M country to talk to him once, and promised to A generous reward in return, the man agreed.

In fact, regretting donations has happened many times in various places. After all, donors have the right to go back on such voluntary donations.

But after Li Xi chatted with the doctor about the surgery for a while, the joy in his heart because of the successful matching was diluted a lot.

Not to mention that many unknown accidents are likely to occur after surgery, such as rejection reactions and infections... Even during the operation, the risks are very high.

However, he didn't want to let his mood affect Chu Yan, so he waited outside for a while before walking towards the ward.

The door of the ward was half-closed. It must have been because the nurse didn't bring it with her after she came out. When Li Xi was about to push the door to enter, he heard the voice of a phone call from inside.

From this angle, he could only see Chu Yan's back, thin and lonely, his voice not heavy but clear.

"elder sister."

...

"No...just wanted to call you..."

He paused before he could finish speaking. It seemed that he was suddenly interrupted by the other side of the phone. He didn't know what was said on the other side. Before he could speak again, he was the first to hang up.

Li Xi could clearly feel that his mood had dropped a lot because of the phone call, and he sat motionless for a while before moving his eyes back from the window.

Li Xi looked at him and felt a little uncomfortable, as if something was pressing down on his heart, which was heavy.

Just like what his sister said, there are so many easy ways to go, so why do you have to take this road that thousands of people criticize... But what really makes Li Xi feel distressed is that he is the most vulnerable now and needs the comfort of his family the most When you are caring and caring, why do you have to endure these?

Maybe it was because the light in the room was too dim. Li Xi even felt that his vision was a little blurry. He wiped his eyes hard, and after calming down for a while, he pushed the door and walked in.

Hearing the voice, Chu Yan raised his head and glanced at Li Xi indifferently, then lowered his head to look at the tablet, but could not see any sadness.

His hair has been trimmed because he has not had much time since he was ill. The ends of his hair are a little long. When he bows his head, he will cover his eyes a little. The bridge of his nose is very straight and his eyelashes are long. People have a calm and beautiful feeling.

Li Xi sat down and couldn't help rubbing his face: "What do you want to eat at night?"

Chu Yan pursed her lips, and seemed to have no interest in dinner at all: "You ask like this, as if I can eat whatever I want."

His tone was obviously not very happy, and he was still a little depressed. Li Xi knew what he meant. People who have had a high fever have a bad appetite. He has been eating liquid food for a few days, and the taste is too bland. normal.

Li Xi struggled for a while: "But your husband, the porridge I cook is also delicious...and there are many kinds. How about eating assorted shrimp tonight?"

Chu Yan glanced at him, then turned his head and continued to look at the tablet. No matter what Li Xi said to him, he didn't say a word.

Chu Yan didn't pay much attention to him until he went to bed at night. Li Xi watched him go to the bathroom with his clothes in his arms, and then closed the door with a "bang".

...

From the next day, the laminar flow room will be used for pretreatment. Because all the infected foci and bad cells need to be removed from the body, the immunity of the patient after the pretreatment is almost zero. Therefore, in order to prevent infection, it is necessary to keep the patient's immunity before the operation. Stay in a sterile room.

Li Xi looked at him through the glass, but the other party was in a comatose state most of the time, and he was rarely awake.

Zhang Chengye looked at Li Xi's face and almost pressed his face against the glass. He couldn't help laughing, "You're going to scare the little nurse inside."

"Come here and have something to eat, we won't have surgery until tomorrow." Zhang Chengye ordered takeout from a nearby hotel. He had eaten this one, and it tasted very good.

But Li Xi didn't seem to hear it, his forehead was against the glass window, and he didn't say a word.

Zhang Chengye waited with him for a while before he saw the nurse inside come out and said to Li Xi, "I'll deliver a meal at eleven o'clock at noon, remember that it can only be liquid food."

Li Xi thanked him and asked some more about Chu Yan's situation, and then he walked away as if he had recovered.

Zhang Chengye obviously saw the relieved expression on the nurse's face, and he didn't know what it was like for a while.

——

The operation was carried out in the afternoon of the following day, and it only required local anesthesia, a soft thin catheter was inserted into the deep vein, and the new hematopoietic stem cells were injected through the vein catheter, so the operation process was not long.

However, the postoperative recovery period was very long and torturous. Because of the damage caused by the initial radiotherapy and chemotherapy, he basically could not eat, and could only maintain his life through high-protein nutrients.

Li Xi could only look at him through the glass every day. Sometimes when he was in good spirits, he could make a phone call to chat with himself.

This state of being completely isolated from the whole world is actually very depleting one's will. Li Xi can only comfort him and encourage him by calling him every day, but Chu Yan's mental state seems to have always been good, and there is not much emotion. Fluctuations, so the psychiatrist prepared by the hospital did not come in handy.

This situation continued for more than ten days. When he was transferred to the general ward, the doctor announced that his physical indicators had returned to normal and he could be transferred to the general ward.

Li Xi cleaned the ECG patch on his chest for him. When he felt his weak but real vitality, his nose was sore, and he finally couldn't help laughing and choked out: "Thank you..."
