Chapter 159: Chapter 137: Cannot Give Up

Liang Yuezhen shed tears of excitement, "This is wonderful, so wonderful, Tang Xi, you’re a match! Xiaomi can be saved!!"

Tang Jingyun did not expect that Tang Xi would actually be a match for Xiaomi, "Yuezhen...about this...we need to discuss it further."

Tang Jingyun was aware of Tang Xi’s pregnancy.

But Liang Yuezhen was not.

When Tang Jingyun first learned of Tang Xi’s pregnancy, she was so shocked, worried that Tang Xi was suffering, but Tang Xi clenched her teeth and refused to say who the father was. When Tang Jingyun asked if it was Fu’s child, Tang Xi just shook her head.

Tang Jingyun felt both heartache and guilt, yet she was helpless.

Tang Xi was generally thin, and during winter, she covered up with thick down jackets, so outsiders didn’t notice.

And at this moment, Tang Xi came back to her senses from her shock. She looked at the test results, where she was a match with Xiaomi and could do the transplant, but...she was pregnant...she really wanted to save Xiaomi, however, her body couldn’t handle it.

It’s not something that could be done casually; after a successful match, the body needs injections of large doses of supportive medications, leukocyte-raising drugs, and so on. Given Tang Xi’s current condition, even if she chose to have a Caesarean section immediately, she would not be able to do the transplant for Xiaomi right away.

For a time, Tang Xi furrowed her brows, unsure of what to do.

Liang Yuezhen shouted, "Why? Why can’t you do it, Tang Xi, you watched Xiaomi grow up, she is your sister. In the current situation, why won’t you save her, only you can save her!"

Tang Jingyun had no choice but to disclose Tang Xi’s pregnancy.

Liang Yuezhen was stunned for a moment.

Off to the side, Tang Shiyue was also taken aback, looking at Tang Xi in surprise, "Sis, you’re pregnant."

Tang Xi nodded, her pale lips pressed together as she looked at Liang Yuezhen, "Auntie Liang, I’ll think of something, Xiaomi will definitely be fine, I’ll go to the transplant center right now to ask about the situation, we still have time, there’s still time."

She needed time to think, to figure things out.

At this moment, Tang Xi’s mind was in chaos.

Liang Yuezhen froze on the spot, having just been given hope, only to have cold water thrown on it again. Now, Liang Yuezhen trembled all over. Suddenly, she ’plop’ knelt down in front of Tang Xi, "I’m begging you as an aunt who has seen you grow up, we can have more children, but Xiaomi only has this one chance. That transplant registry, even if there’s someone available, ordinary people like us won’t get the chance. Look at the six children in this ward, they’re not likely to get it. Auntie begs you, please save Xiaomi."

"You are still young, Tang Xi, if you abort the baby, you can have others in the future!!" Saying this, Liang Yuezhen, while kneeling, reached out trying to grasp Tang Xi’s sleeve.

But she was blocked by Tang Shiyue.

Tang Jingyun also frowned disapprovingly, "Yuezhen, have you lost your senses to say such things!"

Tang Xi pressed her lips tightly, her brows furrowed deeply.

She reached out her hand, caressing her abdomen, and it was as if the baby sensed her touch, kicking her once. In that instant, Tang Xi’s hand trembled.

"Auntie Liang, I...."

"It’s bad, patient in bed twelve is in a critical condition."

The nurse’s voice rang out.

Liang Yuezhen turned pale, bed twelve was Xiaomi’s!

They rushed over immediately.

Xiaomi suddenly started convulsing and fell into a coma; the medical staff rushed over to resuscitate her.

After half an hour of emergency treatment, Xiaomi was admitted to the ICU.

The doctor looked at Liang Yuezhen, "You’re the child’s relatives, right? The situation is critical, the only option now is transplant surgery, otherwise, this child won’t make it through the month."

Tang Xi’s heart wrenched.

Xiaomi is still so young.

For a moment, she stumbled backward, and Tang Shiyue caught her, "Sister, be careful."

Liang Yuezhen had been dazed ever since she heard the doctor’s words, her eyes widened in shock.

In these days, Liang Yuezhen hadn’t really changed her clothes, nor properly combed her hair; her whole body trembling like chaff sifted in the wind. Tang Jingyun didn’t know how to comfort her. Although Xiaomi had grown up in an orphanage, it was Liang Yuezhen who had raised her, treating Xiaomi as her own daughter.

"Yuezhen, sit down first, we’ll think of a solution."

Liang Yuezhen knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to Tang Xi, murmuring.

"Please save Xiaomi, I beg you."

"You can still have children, but if Xiaomi doesn’t make it..."

"You got pregnant before marriage, Tang Xi. Keeping this child is a disgrace. Abort it, and you can still get married in the future." She kept kowtowing incessantly, as if possessed.

Tang Xi leaned powerlessly against the wall.

The woman was slender, her entire body tense, with heavy emotions on her pale and delicate face.

No matter how Tang Jingyun tried to persuade, Liang Yuezhen refused to get up.

Tang Shiyue couldn’t bear to watch, "Sister, you go back first."

Tang Xi lifted her gaze, looking inside through the glass doors, at the situation in the ICU.

She had worked in an emergency ICU before. Here, the beeps of the machines were cold and shrill, oppressing and stifling. Yet, they were the only hope for these critically ill patients.

Xiaomi is still so young...

Thinking of the girl smiling sweetly at her, Tang Xi’s eyes reddened.

But she couldn’t give up the child in her womb either.

Seeing no response from Tang Xi, Liang Yuezhen stood up, her gaze turning cold when she looked at Tang Xi, suppressed like a venomous tongue, "Tang Xi, you’re so heartless. I curse your child to not make it to birth, or if born, to be disabled. I curse you to never die well in this lifetime!!"

Tang Xi’s body trembled.

She bit her lip tightly, watching Liang Yuezhen scream hysterically like a madwoman pushed to the brink.

Tang Jingyun got angry and grabbed Liang Yuezhen’s arm, "How could you say such a thing! Yuezhen, have you really gone mad!"

Tang Shiyue took Tang Xi’s arm, "Sister, I’ll take you home. Don’t mind her, the baby in your belly will definitely be very healthy and happy. I’m still waiting to be an uncle."

Tang Shiyue led Tang Xi away slowly, entering the elevator, but Liang Yuezhen’s enraged howling could still be faintly heard. Tang Xi slowly closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling. She felt somewhat powerless and only drew strength from leaning on Tang Shiyue’s arm.

After returning home, Tang Xi developed a fever that night.

She didn’t sleep all night.

The next morning Xu Yiran knocked on the door; Tang Xi went to open it. Xu Yiran immediately noticed something was wrong with Tang Xi,

The man raised his hand to touch her forehead.

"You’ve got a fever?" Xu Yiran frowned, entering the living room, and skillfully took out the thermometer from the medicine box to measure Tang Xi’s temperature. Seeing that it was a minor fever, he sighed with relief.

"Don’t take any medication just yet, drink more water and rest well."

Tang Xi pursed her lips. With thoughts weighing on her mind, she had not slept all night; the recent stress over Xiaomi’s situation drained her, causing a low fever. She was somewhat groggy and sat on the sofa, raising a hand to rub her temple, her voice hoarse, "I’m fine, don’t you have to work today? You better go and get busy."

"What happened? Tang Xi, you look like you haven’t slept all night."
