Shi Jin tapped him on the head. “We’ll discuss that after I finish up my work.”

She took a bite of the food and smiled. “You’ve improved again. The ribs are fragrant, soft, and flavorful. Not bad.”

Yue Lanchen, who had been suppressing his emotions for a few days, was moved by Shi Jin’s smile. He smiled and ate two pieces himself. “Sigh, as expected of me. It’s really delicious.”

“It’s much better than what I make anyway.”

“Yes, your technique is terrible. It’s as ‘excellent’ as our mother’s!”

“Yue Lanchen!” Shi Jin knocked his head heavily.

“Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch!”

In the hotel restaurant.

After hearing what Yue Yu had to say, Charles said quietly, “Xiao Yu, I don’t like you because you’re from the Yue family. Even if you’re not now, it doesn’t stop us from being close.”

Yue Yu gazed at his face with tears in her eyes.

“Don’t worry,” Charles promised. “I’ll never give up our relationship because of this.”

“Shall we get married, then?” Yue Yu choked, looking at him hopefully.

“Okay!” Charles agreed without hesitation!

The matter that Yue Yu was originally worried about was now resolved smoothly. She was more or less excited.

Remembering how frightened she’d been for the past few days, and finally getting a response from Charles’s side, she let all her worries go.

After parting with Charles, she still went to visit Old Madam Yue.

She knew that although Charles had agreed to the marriage, his family was still a big family. She still needed Old Madam Yue’s support before she could really stand on Charles’s side.

When she saw Yue Yu coming over, Old Madam Yue said calmly, “You’re here?”

“Grandma, I heard that you haven’t been well recently, so I came over to take a look,” Yue Yu said softly.

“At least you have a heart.”

Yue Yu sat in front of her, his voice filled with emotion. “Grandma brought me up, after all. How can I forget your kindness in raising me?”

“I’m glad you feel that way. There is some fate between us after all. Don’t blame me for what happened in the first place. You might not have done better from my perspective.”

“Yes, I understand your difficulties. It’s always been about the whole family.”

When Old Madam Yue said nothing for a long time, Yue Yu said, “Grandma, Charles and I are getting married.”

“Oh?” Old Madam Yue was interested. “That sounds good. Have you discussed everything?”

“We’ve all agreed that preparations will begin soon,” Yue Yu said. “Grandma, even if I marry far away in the future, I’ll come back often to visit you.”

Old Madam Yue was very satisfied with her. Compared to Shi Jin’s unruly behavior, Yue Yu had always been very obedient.

This was also the reason why Old Madam Yue never regretted doing this.

As for Fu Xiuyuan, who was beside Shi Jin, Old Madam Yue had long given up on him. The Fu family had always been independent of all power. They were a force that could not be fought for. That would not change because of Shi Jin’s existence.

Instead of relying on the Fu family, it was better to rely on Charles’s family.

With the preparations for Yue Yu’s wedding imminent, Yue Feng and Madam Yue also perked up and began to help with the preparations.

Facing this daughter, they still had feelings.

Shi Jin’s new concert was also over. After it was over, she went straight to the airport.

Fu Xiuyuan walked over, followed by several assistants carrying several large suitcases.

When Shi Jin saw this scene, she couldn’t help but smile. “Those who know will know that we’re going on a trip. Those who don’t will think that we’re emigrating.”

“Since we’re going out, we might as well go out for a few more days.”

“Okay, whatever you say.”

Shi Jin stepped forward and took his arm.

Their schedule focused on comfort and leisure. Fu Xiuyuan had freed up all his recent time to accompany her.

By the sea.

Evening.

The waves were rolling, and the sea breeze blew on their faces, making them feel refreshed.

Shi Jin walked barefoot on the beach, moving forward slowly.

The sea breeze ruffled her long hair.

At the side, the hotel manager walked towards Fu Xiuyuan. “Master Fu, dinner is ready.”

“Got it.”

Fu Xiuyuan got up and walked toward Shi Jin.

At that moment, Shi Jin’s phone rang. She picked it up and looked slightly serious. Then she said, “Got it.”

She put the phone away.

Fu Xiuyuan could tell that what had appeared on the phone was definitely not a small matter.

“What is it?”

“They said that Old Madam Yue is sick. Kidney disease. They want me to go back.”

There was a careless mocking in Fu Xiuyuan’s crooked smile. “I think the view is great. Do you want to stay another two days?”

“Yes.” Shi Jin smiled, her seriousness gone.

***

In the hospital ward.

Old Madam Yue’s face was pale.

Yue Yu said softly, “Grandma, I’ve already called Shi Jin. She’s overseas now.”

“What’s the point of calling her? There are countless good doctors on our side. What’s one more?”

The attending doctor beside her said, “If you’re talking about Shi Jin, it would be best for her to diagnose the old madam. At the moment, many of our treatments and surgical methods are using Shi Jin’s method.”

Old Madam Yue frowned, unwilling to believe the doctor.

“Old Madam Yue, if we can invite Shi Jin…”

“No, don’t look for her. Just treat me.”

“Alright, Old Madam. Old Madam, based on your current condition, the best way is still to have a kidney transplant. The success rate of the surgery can reach seventy to eighty percent. If it succeeds, you can reach a fifteen-year survival rate.”

A kidney transplant?

Old Madam Yue’s heart skipped a beat.

Yue Yu hung her head. If she really had to change a kidney, the chances of her matching it were not high.

“We’ll be searching in the medical library for you at the moment, but in order to maintain a low exclusion rate for better treatment and follow-up, relatives are the best.”

When Old Madam Yue heard this, she said indifferently, “Alright, go and prepare first.”

Yue Yu immediately said, “I’ll go and check my physical condition. If it matches, I’ll give mine to you.”

Old Madam Yue looked at her with relief.

The results came back quickly.

Yue Yu wasn’t part of the Yue family at all. Hers didn’t match and was quickly ruled out.

The rest of the Yue family did not match either.

The only person not tested now was Shi Jin.

***

Yue residence.

Yue Feng said to Madam Yue, “There’s no need to inform Shi Jin to come back. Even if she’s a match, I won’t let her donate.”

“Yes. How could we let her bear all the suffering, and then force her to come back when something goes wrong?”

The two of them quickly reached an agreement not to let Shi Jin come over.
