After My Death, The Villain Blackened Again: Chapter 94

ARC 2: THE FILM EMPEROR FROM HUMBLE ORIGINS (49)

When Qi Yuan learned about Yan Ge's death, it was on the second year after she passed away.

He found Xiao Ge's birth certificate at the hospital.

Through his investigations, he discovered that Yan Ge was at the same hospital as him after the accident.

As he looked through her medical records, he didn't know what compelled him to check his own hospital records as well.

Only then did he learn that he had earned a new lease of life.

Moreover, he soon found another loophole.

He knew that he was transferred to the hospital later on, but the date of discharge from this hospital and date of admission for the other one didn't match up. There was a discrepancy of a few days.

He went to pay a visit to his attending doctor.

Not only did the doctor remember him, he was also surprised to see him so healthy.

"Do, do you currently have an artificial heart?"

Qi Yuan shook his head: "No."

The doctor was both astonished and intrigued: "Your sister's idea really worked? What about her? Why didn't she come? Her guts are too big. Back then she invited me to be one of the chief surgeons, but I thought she was indulging in fantasies. She was being too naïve and you were both going to lose your lives. I never thought it would actually work. I'm truly amazed."

Because of his words, Qi Yuan was unprepared for the gaping hole that opened up in his heart. He endured the dreaded feeling and the sensation of being ripped apart to ask the doctor with a leveled voice: "Why didn't you participate?"

"The risk was too great, I couldn't dare. Although I wanted to witness the miracle, I was afraid. Failure meant the loss of two lives, but even if it succeeded, you two may experience organ rejection. I have a wife and kids. I couldn't afford to gamble."

Although the doctor was remorseful, he immediately eased up and asked Qi Yuan with a smile: "How's your sister's body now? She got a cesarean just so she could exchange hearts with you. Did her body recover well? You almost look like an ordinary person so she should have fared the same.

"I always wanted to follow up on your situation that year, but I got so busy. Your cases were also highly confidential and I couldn't get in touch.

"When can your sister come for a visit? I would really like to examine your physical conditions. Pardon me for asking like this, I mean no harm. I'm merely curious about your recovery."

Qi Yuan listened to him and it was as if a hammer was smashing his heart to pieces that then impaled all his organs.

He couldn't breathe. He couldn't talk. He couldn't even think.

In an instant, he seemed to have fallen into an inferno.

All sorts of spirits were screaming in his ears, 'She got a cesarean just so she could give you a heart'...

"Mr. Qi? Mr. Qi, is something the matter?"

Qi Yuan was finally pulled out of his trance and regained focus. Opening his mouth, he asked in a dumb voice: "Which hospital performed the operation? Was there one that dared to take on these kinds of operations?"

"No hospital had the courage to do it. At the time, your sister spent money in private. It seems that she borrowed equipment and found doctors from abroad. Why, your sister didn't tell you?"

Qi Yuan shook his head stiffly: "No, she never told me the details."

The flesh on his bones seemed to have been torn asunder. He felt truly sick inside, but strangely enough, he kept on smiling. He was smiling at the doctor and was smiling when he said goodbye.
