My Youth Began With Him

“Change out of your clothes, and I’ll tell you,” Huo Mian said calmly.

“Young Madam…” Yingzi seemed hesitant.

“It’s okay, Yingzi, I’ll tell him. Give us a few minutes.” Huo Mian nodded at her…

Ni Yang was obedient; he went into the bathroom to change out of his own outfit and then sat down on the bed in his hospital gown.

“Tell me, what disease do I have? Don’t lie to me.”

“In layman terms… you’re suffering from liver failure… and need a liver transplant.”

“A liver transplant? Is it cancer?” Ni Yang looked up, seemingly calm.

“It’s not liver cancer, but rather a case of complicated liver sclerosis. Because you’re in the mid-late stage, you need a liver transplant.”

“Is it that serious? Can you find a matching liver?”

“Yeah, we found one already.”

“That fast?” Ni Yang obviously didn’t believe her.

“Of course… when have I ever lied to you?” (TL Note: didn’t she just finish lying to her about his sickness…)

“Then… when will the surgery be?”

“Within five days, as soon as you finish your pre-op checkups.”

“I’ll fully recover after surgery?”

“Yup.”

“As simple as that?”

“Yes, as simple as that.”

After Huo Mian finished, Ni Yang still felt unsettled…

He looked at Huo Mian doubtfully, and she smiled. “Don’t look at me like that, I won’t lie to you.”

“Then what’s the rush? I thought I was diagnosed with a terminal illness.”

“The thing is, you’re suffering from liver failure, affecting your digestive system. If you don’t get surgery soon, it’ll affect your appetite and you’ll lose weight.”

“Okay… I don’t understand medical jargon, but from what you said, it doesn’t seem to be a big problem.”

“Of course it isn’t, you don’t have to worry,” Huo Mian consoled him.

After his conversation with Ni Yang, he calmed down quite a bit and stopped trying to leave.

Yingzi immediately went up to Huo Mian after she left his room.

“How did it go, Young Madam…?”

“He’s fine, don’t worry. He’s on Weibo talking to his fans,” Huo Mian smiled.

“How was his reaction… after he found out?”

“It was fine… it isn’t a life-threatening disease to begin with, so why make a big deal out of it?”

“That’s great… thank you, Young Madam.”

“Don’t thank me, the organ donor is the hero here… Without the donor, Ni Yang wouldn’t be able to get surgery so soon.”

“You’re right, who’s the organ donor? I’d like to compensate him or her. After all, they helped Ni Yang out.”

Huo Mian shook her head upon hearing what Yingzi said, “It’s okay… she won’t take money.”

“She doesn’t want money?” Yingzi looked confused.

“Yeah… never mind, I’ll tell you about it later, I still have work to do. Call me if you need me.”

After a busy day at South Side…

Huo Siqian sent her a WeChat, telling her that Huo Zhenghai did another DNA test, and he was right.

The Huo Family went through a night and day change, and Shen Jiani and her children were completely sidelined.

Huo Zhenghai put them on house arrest and didn’t let them go anywhere.

He was going to update his will as well. Huo Zhenghai also told Huo Mian to be there the day he announces his new will.

“Mian… the two of us will be able to eat their share of the cake now, are you happy?” Huo Siqian asked her via WeChat.

“I don’t want the cake, it doesn’t belong to me anyways. You can have it all.”

Huo Mian wasn’t greedy; she never wanted to take a cent from the Huo Family, since she was never Huo Zhenghai’s daughter to begin with.

“You don’t want free money, are you an idiot?” Huo Siqian sent.

“Money isn’t a good thing, too much of it is troublesome. I don’t want something that’s not mine.”

“You made it sound like… you’re not a part of the Huo Family…” Huo Siqian said profoundly.

Huo Mian began struggling again; did Huo Siqian know about her true identity?

If he did, how much did he know? Could it be more than her?
