Chapter 931 - 369: One of a KindâDisease Is Ruthless, but People Have Compassion
"Darling, why didnât you let me know you were coming? Have you eaten?"
Su Qianqian seemed to notice that something was wrong with Zhou Canâs mood.
She closed the door, didnât even take off her coat, and sat down right next to Zhou Can.
"Your kidney failure has worsened, why didnât you tell me?"
Zhou Can stared at her, his face looking quite frightening.
Angry, very unhappy.
"Iâm doing just fine! Besides, for my illness, thereâs no other solution but a kidney transplant. Telling you would only make you worry too." Su Qianqian held his hand and carefully explained.
"If you really consider me your man, you shouldnât hide it from me."
There was anger in Zhou Canâs voice.
Wei Fang very sensibly retreated into her own room and closed the door. She never got involved in the private matters between her boss and his wife.
"I was just afraid of making you worry! Please donât be mad, okay?"
Su Qianqian gently shook Zhou Canâs arm.
"Iâm upset that you donât take care of your body; your condition is already worsening, yet you work so hard. Whatâs more upsetting is that you kept it from me the whole time."
Zhou Can felt more heartache and pity for her.
Though they werenât married yet and hadnât consummated their relationship, emotionally, they were as solid as gold, akin to a real couple.
Even deeper than many actual married couples.
"I know I was wrong! Please donât be mad anymore, okay!" She gently stroked Zhou Canâs chest, trying to soothe him.
"You silly girl, what should I say to you? If I hadnât accidentally found out today, were you planning to keep it from me forever? Do you know the terrible consequences of kidney failure?"
Zhou Can looked at her, unable to bear blaming her, feeling more heartache instead.
Her makeup wasnât even removed, and her face was full of fatigue. She must have been exhausted from work all day, and her body was extremely fatigued. Patients with kidney failure are prone to fatigue.
No way to be compared to a healthy person.
Yet even in extreme exhaustion, she still smiled and softly persuaded Zhou Can.
"Of course, I know the consequences! But Iâve got no choice but to try and make every day Iâm alive as wonderful as possible. If one day I really leave, just forget about me, okay?"
She must have already prepared for the worst.
"Su Qianqian, your life is mine. Without my permission, youâre not allowed to talk about giving up your life again. I will use everything I have to find a way to cure your illness."
Zhou Can was indeed thinking this way.
Spending all his fortune, losing his job, even going to jail, he wouldnât mind.
All he wanted was for her to live. To live healthily.
"Can, I also want to spend my life with you, but if fate doesnât allow it, we have to learn to accept. With your family background, talent, and appearance, Iâm sure you can find a girl a hundred, a thousand times better than me."
Her words suggested her condition might be worse than expected.
Of course, itâs possible her perception was off, and the progression of her illness had scared her into preparing for the worst.
"Su Qianqian, you are you; you are a unique girl in this world. In my heart, no one can replace you. If you are always thinking about easily giving up your life, itâs being irresponsible to our love, and to me."
Zhou Can inherited the unwavering passion of the Zhou family men; he wouldnât easily fall for someone, but once he did, it was deep love.
With his conditions, he could indeed have a different girlfriend every day; women were never scarce for him.
But Su Qianqian had long been a part of his life, even a part of his existence.
Losing her was something Zhou Can couldnât imagine.
"I havenât easily given up on life; Iâm just saying, if I ever leave this world, I hope you wonât be too sad. Forget me, and then find a woman who loves you, and live a happy life."
She looked earnestly at Zhou Can, her eyes glistening with tears.
If she could, who would be willing to give her beloved man to another woman?
Faced with such a dreadful disease, she was, after all, just a mortal.
"As long as Iâm here, I will never let you die! Kidney failure is not a terminal illness, no!" Zhou Can believed that it hadnât even reached the stage of needing a kidney transplant yet, and there was no immediate life threat.
Even in the end stage of kidney failure, long-term survival could still rely on dialysis.
"Let me see your test results!"
His tone left no room for refusal.
Su Qianqian hesitated for a moment but eventually complied, taking out a stack of kidney function test reports from her bag.
The dates spanned a long period, as chronic kidney failure was generally tested once a month.
The main tests included kidney function, electrolytes, blood routine, parathyroid hormone, and so forth.
Among them, a critical indicator was to monitor whether the creatinine levels had increased.
In foreign countries, the glomerular filtration rate is the primary indicator.
Zhou Can started reading from the first test report from two years ago, clearly seeing her condition progressively worsening. Especially more than a year ago, it directly progressed from the compensatory stage to the decompensated stage.
Now, the condition was still relentlessly progressing, marching straight toward the third stage of renal failure.
"I am an incompetent boyfriend; over the span of more than two years, I never even asked about your test results, leaving you to bear all the pressure alone. Qianqian, Iâm sorry!"
Zhou Can tightly hugged her, suddenly realizing how thin her body was.
When she normally dated Zhou Can, besides her meticulous care for him in life, she always showed him her joy and smiles. Imagine the enormous psychological pressure she must have endured when she got these test results.
