Chapter 39: She Must Absolutely Not Miss It

Translator: Lam_  Editor: Hitesh_

Those final words of Lu Yanchen felt extremely invasive. Even though he had already left, Shi Guang was still standing there quietly, leaning against the wall like a statue.

Her heart was quivering slightly as she shut her eyes and told herself that it was fine…

However, her tightly gripped fists revealed her current state of uneasiness.

After leaving the Shen Family’s Water Cube, Shi Guang did not head home as per usual or even to train. She rode on her motorbike for a long time until she arrived at a nursing home in a suburb.

Even though the location of this nursing home was slightly more rural, it was close to the nature, with mountains and clear running rivers nearby. This was quite a nice environment.

After registering at the front desk, Shi Guang took the lift up to the fifth floor.

Passing through the long passageways, she pushed open a door at the furthest end.

In that small little ward was only a single bed, with a small-framed woman laid on it. Her jet black hair were pinned up with a star hairclip. Her skin was pale; so pale that it seemed to sparkle somewhat like that of a vampire. With her eyes closed peacefully, her expression was both gentle and warm to look at.

Shi Guang sat down beside the bed and lifted her hand to fondle the woman’s cheek before calling out gently, “Big sister, I’ve come to see you.”

In that silent, empty space, the only sounds that could be heard were from the intravenous (IV) drip.

“How have you been recently, big sister…?” Holding the hand of her big sister, Shi Guang started fondling it lightly.

“Are you angry that I didn’t come visit you after winning the champion’s title? There have been a few things that had happened recently. I…met Lu Yanchen once more. He was the one who gave me the trophy…”

Slowly, Shi Guang related everything that had happened to her recently to her sister who was lying on the bed, “…Right now, what I want to do is teach him properly and help him overcome his water vertigo. Big sister, do you think that I’m making the right decision? I…”

The door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and in walked a middle-aged woman wearing white, long robes.

Shi Guang stood up immediately and greeted her with a smile, “Hi, Doctor Chen.”

“Ah, Shi Guang! You’re here to visit your sister again…” Doctor Chen walked over to the bedside, preparing to take some tests for Shi Guang’s sister. Catching sight of Shi Guang’s worried face with her side glance, she chuckled out, “Don’t worry! This is just a routine check. Everything’s fine with your sister.”

Shi Guang smiled out, “Doctor Chen, the operation that you mentioned to me earlier on…Are we still scheduling it?”

“That operation…” Doctor Chen wished to continue, but she held it in before turning over to Shi Guang and saying with heartfelt words, “The operation fees are really expensive. Everything should add up to around 600 thousand.”

Shi Guang replied, “I’ve already prepared the operation fees. It’s just really dependant on how you deem my sister’s condition to be, and when we can continue with the operation now.”

Doctor Chen knitted her brows, “The probability of success is only around fifty percent.”

Shi Guang raised her head and looked at her with a pair of bright yet resolute eyes, “Even then, I must not miss out on this chance that could possibly allow my sister to wake up.”

Fifty percent chance aside, even if it were only one percent, Shi Guang would not want to miss it at all.

It had been seven years now. Only the Heavens would know of how much she wished for her sister to wake up.

Ever since she could remember, her parents had always been exceptionally busy, leaving her sister as the only one taking care of her.

Her sister was older than her by four years, and was mature and understanding since a young age. She had a quiet and demure personality, someone who was smart and self-effacing.

When Shi Guang was young, her sister was her God.

If she wanted to listen to stories, no matter what sort they were, her sister would tell them to her.

If she wanted to eat snacks, no matter what sort they were, her sister would buy them for her.

If she got into trouble, her sister would shoulder the blame for her.

If she was bullied, her sister would whack them for her.

At those times, no matter what happened to her, she would always have a big sister by her side.

She had always thought that those wonderful times would continue on forever till the day her sister fell in love and got married with kids…

But, who would have thought that one fine day…her sister would…turn into a vegetable all of a sudden…
