4508 The Other Side 477

Upon seeing Yun Shishi, the child took half a step back timidly, clearly shy and afraid. There was still a fever patch on his forehead.

So he was here because of a fever too?

Yun Shishi crouched down and asked for his name.

However, the little thing was very vigilant. He shook his head and twisted his hands together. It was obvious that he was guarded and unwilling to divulge the information.

The little tot’s mother then rushed over from the side. When she saw her son had wandered off to someone else’s ward, she quickly bowed and apologized to Yun Shishi. But when she recognized Yun Shishi, her eyes widened in disbelief.

“It’s… it’s you!”

Yun Shishi was surprised. “Me? Do you know me?”

She was not too curious because she was known by a great many people. However, this woman’s surprise was not the sort that came from someone running into a celebrity, but more like the sort that came from an old friend.

“Is that you, Yun Shishi?” The woman picked up her child and smiled as she took his hand and waved it at the other woman. She said, “Come, Yangyang, say hello to Auntie.”

When the little tot saw that his mother seemed to know this auntie, he opened his mouth and called out in a childish voice, “Auntie…”

“Miss Yun, it’s me. This is my son, Jing Yang. Do you remember him?”

“Ahhh…” Yun Shishi let out a short “Ah!” before her gaze fell on the child again, her eyes reddening with emotion.

This child was the one who received Xingzhe’s cornea donation…

“When Yangyang was born, he was like any other children. However, as he grew up, while other children would start to look at the world curiously, he would lay in the crib, motionless and not mess around. I would tease him with a toy, but he would not react. Although his eyes were wide open, they were not focused.” Jingqi sat on the bed and chatted with Yun Shishi.

Jing Yang was lying on his stomach next to Yueyao on her bed. He propped his little head up in his hand as he curiously sized up this little Lolita who was about his age. He stared at her curiously, carefully poking her face from time to time.

Yueyao had just taken her fever injection and had already fallen asleep. Yun Shishi was fully focused on what the other woman was saying.

Jing Qi continued, “He would always lay still. I was afraid that something was wrong with the child, so I took him to the hospital. Only then did I find out that the child was born with corneas. The doctor said that perhaps when I was pregnant, I lacked proper nutrition, but he could not rule out other reasons. Whatever it was, there was an issue with the child’s eyes. I knew about this and was so worried that I did not sleep well for a few nights. I had a problem raising his surgery fees, not to mention the scarce cornea donor source.”

Yun Shishi looked at the woman with pity.

Perhaps it was because of her own affection for Gu Xingze. These years, she had been missing him. Now, it was as though she could see the continuation of his life in this child.

“I’m very, very grateful. If it weren’t for Mr. Gu Xingzhe, I wouldn’t know what to do! I’ve thought about donating my cornea to him, but the doctor said that the hospital doesn’t have the right to perform such an operation.”

“I like this child. Not only is this child beautiful, but I also feel a certain closeness to him.” Yun Shishi’s expression suddenly relaxed. “It’s as if Xingze’s still alive and well!”
