Chapter 653 Kate
During Mu Xiaoji's arduous three-day rejection period, he felt as if he were transported to a dark and fantastical world. Within this darkness, countless past memories flashed like ghosts, many of which revealed secrets Jiang Chengyu had kept hidden from him. These images flooded back like a tide, sometimes leaving him bewildered, sometimes moved, sometimes heartbroken. He struggled bitterly in the darkness, desperately hoping to soon break free and see the light again. Finally, after all the hardships, he finally made it to this day.
Two highly respected professors, Drucker and Adris, along with Karina and a host of medical staff, gathered around the bed. Their eyes were fixed on Mu Xiaoji, filled with concern and anticipation, as if they were witnessing a miracle. Mu Xiaoji was on the verge of waking up. The atmosphere in the ward was tense and silent, with only the faint hum of various medical instruments to be heard.
Mu Xiaoji's eyeballs moved slightly under his eyelids, as if trying to find the direction of light in the darkness. Finally, he slowly opened his eyes. At first, his vision was blurry, and everything in front of him seemed to be covered by a layer of fog. He could only vaguely see three figures staring at him closely. As his consciousness gradually cleared, his eyes slowly focused, and he could see the three people beside the bed clearly - Professor Drucker, Professor Idris and Karina. His lips trembled slightly under the oxygen mask, and he made a very weak sound and muttered softly: "Professor?"
As his consciousness cleared, his once clear eyes instantly turned blood-red, a wave of extremely complex emotions swirling in them. Seeing this, Youyou and Collewell hurried to the bedside. With tears of excitement glistening in her eyes, Youyou happily exclaimed, "Brother Xiaoji, you're finally awake! That's great! You don't know how scared we all were!" Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, as if all the worries accumulated over the past few days had transformed into a torrent of joy. Collewell smiled gently, saying, "Mu, you're amazing." His smile expressed both admiration for Mu Xiaoji's tenacious vitality and relief at the success of the surgery.
Suddenly, Mu Xiaoji began to tremble and shook his head, as if in a state of extreme fear or anxiety. Professor Drucker, perceptive, immediately noticed something was amiss. He immediately turned his gaze to the various monitoring instruments, carefully examining the data, trying to determine the cause of Mu Xiaoji's unusual reaction. Professor Idris quickly approached Mu Xiaoji, bent down, and asked with concern, "Dear Mu, what's wrong with you? What do you want to say?" He put his ear close to Mu Xiaoji's lips, trying to hear his weak words. With great effort, Mu Xiaoji managed to force out two words from his dry throat: "Kate."
Professor Idris looked puzzled. He straightened up, looked at Coleman and asked, "Kate, does he want to see Kate?" After hearing this, Youyou hurriedly approached Mu Xiaoji and said, "Brother Xiaoji, Brother Chengyu is far away in G City. I'm afraid he can't come for a while." She thought the "Kate" Mu Xiaoji was talking about was Jiang Chengyu, and tried to calm him down.
Mu Xiaoji became even more agitated after hearing Youyou's words. He hurriedly asked, "Youyou, did you... transplant Cheng Yu's heart and lungs for me?" His eyes were filled with fear and worry, as if he was afraid of hearing a positive answer. Seeing this, Youyou waved her hands hurriedly and said anxiously, "No, no, Brother Xiaoji, don't let your imagination run wild. Brother Cheng Yu and Jiang Shuo are together! You must not get excited. You just got better. Just rest and recuperate." Youyou knew that Mu Xiaoji's emotional fluctuations at this moment were extremely detrimental to his physical recovery, and she tried hard to calm him down.
But Mu Xiaoji couldn't seem to let it go easily. His body was still trembling slightly, and the images of Jiang Chengyu he had seen in the dark world kept appearing in his mind. He was worried that his rebirth would come at the cost of Jiang Chengyu's sacrifice. This worry was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.
Seeing Mu Xiaoji so excited, Professor Idris hurriedly said, "Mu, calm down first. The transplanted heart and lungs came from a matching donor and have nothing to do with Kate. You are still very weak, and excessive emotional fluctuations are not conducive to recovery." His voice was steady and powerful, trying to reassure Mu Xiaoji with professional words.
Karina also whispered to comfort him, "Yes, Mu, we all hope you can get better soon. Don't put too much pressure on yourself." Her eyes were full of concern and tenderness, like a kind elder comforting an injured child.
With the comfort of everyone, Mu Xiaoji's mood gradually calmed down. He looked deeply at everyone around him, feeling both grateful for their concern and deeply concerned about Jiang Chengyu. He knew that he had to recover as soon as possible before he could confirm whether Jiang Chengyu was okay. So, he nodded slightly, closed his eyes, and tried to calm himself down, preparing to face the next road to recovery in a better state. At the same time, he also looked forward to meeting Jiang Chengyu as soon as possible and resolving the doubts in his heart.
