Chapter 19 - Surgery

"Oh, you mean doctor Ye?" Bai Renxiang asked to be sure she knew whom the kid was referring.

"Yes, that one," Lee Ai said excitedly pointing towards the door. Ye Chaoxiang had just entered when he heard what they were talking about. He was their topic of discussion.

Bai Renxiang followed Lee Ai's pointing finger and saw doctor Ye. She stood up, rubbing her palm at both sides of her hips. Seeing him now in his surgery uniform made her more nervous.

"Handsome doctor how are you? Where have you been? You did not even bother to check on little Ai this morning. Little Ai is very disappointed in handsome doctor," Lee Ai queried Ye Chaoxiang.

Ye Chaoxiang had been in charge of Lee Ai's treatment for three more now and he could say that Lee Ai is a smart, sweet, cheerful and very curious kid. He would always drop by to see her whenever he came to the hospital and sometimes bring her favourite sweets. They bonded quite well.

"I'm sorry, princess. The handsome doctor was a little busy and had a bad headache this morning. I will buy you a candy treat if you forgive me," he tried to get off the hook. She would scold him like his mum dies when he worked a lot or got to the house at almost midnight.

"Hey, that is bribing and it is very very bad. Little Ai will forgive you as far as you promise not to do it again. You still came after all so you didn't forget me. Little Ai can never stay mad at the handsome doctor for a second so you don't have to bribe me," Lee Ai chided.

"Thanks for your understanding my cutie," Ye Chaoxiang said.

Soon three nurses came in with a stretcher and took Jiang Meilin out of the room.

"Doctor Ye, we will be waiting for you," one of the nurses reminded.

"Hmm," came Ye Chaoxiang's reply. Looking at Lee Ai, Ye Chaoxiang said, "Little Ai, I have surgery now for your roommate, I will come back later with your candies before I go later, okay?"

"Alright. Make sure you treat her well if not that pretty aunty will cry a lot like other days," Lee Ai said talking about Bai Renxiang who had followed the nurses towards the operation theatre.

Walking towards the door, Ye Chaoxiang said, "I will do my best. Now rest well okay."

"Okay. Bye-bye," Lee Ai waved.

"Bye," he waved back before he closed the door.

Outside the operation theatre, doctor Ye assured Bai Renxiang that he would do his best to ensure the surgery goes well before he proceeded into the theatre to begin the operation.

"Alright let's begin," he said as soon as he entered the room. All set, the doctors and nurses began.

Tearing of skin, stopping bleeding, removing the diseased kidney, replacing it with a much healthy one then stitching. The operation lasted for four hours before Jiang Meilin was pushed out of the theatre.

Bai Renxiang rushed to meet doctor Ye when he came out.

"Let's discuss properly in my office," he said before she could ask any questions. They both went to his office.

"How is my mum?" Bai Renxiang asked. It was evident that she was scared.

"Well, she is fine. You are very lucky," he said with a light smile on his handsome face.

"Sigh. Thank God."

"Your mother should be out of bed in two or three days max. Here are the medicines you should get for her from the pharmacy." He passed a list of prescribed drugs he wrote to her.

While she was reading through, he explained further.

"The kidney we used for your mother was from a healthy living donor so her recovery will be quick. She will be feeling sore but it will be for

a while. She will be discharged within a week of she corresponds well to the treatment. Take her for a walk in the garden when she is okay with that. She should drink lots of water and eat vegetables and fresh fruits. Low salt and sugar intake, no grapes, unpasteurized juices, shrimps, crayfish, prawns etcetera. I will inform you about the rest later," he informed.

"Thank you very much for everything doctor," Bai Renxiang appreciated and headed for the door.

"Miss Bai."

"Yes, doctor?"

"You should stop crying and get some rest instead. You look like a ghost and you do not want to scare your mother to death with those popped red eyes with bags underneath," he advised. Shocked was an understatement for what she was feeling now. How did he know that she cries?

"Little Ai told me you cry a lot," he answered her thoughts. Nodding in understanding, Bai Renxiang thanked him once again and left.

Taking deep breaths, Ye Chaoxiang closed his eyes for a while. Today was quite hectic. He had done three surgeries since he arrived and he still had to buy Lee Ai's candies and visit her before he left. Thinking for a while, he dialled a number.

"Get me chocolate flavoured candies from Sweet Delight," he said immediately after the call got connected and hung up when he gave out his order.

"Before the candies arrive, I'll do my rounds and visit little Ai before I call it a day." With that decided, he went to the room in his office to change his clothes and left.
