Chapter 1332: Chapter 1008: Fate!

Principal Ding’s brain tumor problem had been resolved, but now acute renal failure was the major issue, with each hemodialysis session less effective than the last. It seemed that Director Wang of the Department of Nephrology’s prediction was correct. As a nationally renowned expert in nephrology, she had a wealth of experience and was extremely accurate in judging the progression of disease.

Following this trend, if Principal Ding was to be saved, a kidney transplant was the only option. Therefore, kidney matching was imperative, with both relative matching and the search for suitable volunteers being pursued simultaneously.

Ding Xinyu, Guan Ruyan and Lu Xiaolu all had the necessary physical examinations and kidney matching tests at Affiliated Hospital No. 1, but the results would not be available immediately and they had to wait.

The speech by Guan Ruyan at the case discussion meeting had widely circulated within the Nandu Medical University system, and many students at the school were also aware of it. Already an idol-like figure to many, his image as a good son-in-law who was grateful and sought to reciprocate was cemented unknowingly, and he became a young moral exemplar in everyone’s eyes.

Reporters from the Nandu Provincial TV Station, having heard the news, were very interested in the story and sent a team to interview Guan Ruyan. When talking about Principal Ding, Guan Ruyan was choked with sobs, unable to speak. He attributed his modest achievements today entirely to Professor Ding’s generous support and mentoring. Without Professor Ding, there would be no him today. Now that Professor Ding was in peril, he felt obliged to step forward—it was the least he could do and nothing noble. Because of this, Guan Ruyan’s image as a good son-in-law was solidified in the public’s mind.

Unlike Guan Ruyan, Lu Xiaolu was the one who was truly active in the matching process, but he was far less articulate than Guan Ruyan and had no intention of establishing a public image, so people didn’t remember him, and had no idea that there was another Lu Xiaolu involved in the matching.

Many teachers at the school said that Principal Ding had a good son-in-law who bravely stepped forward to donate a kidney at a critical time; it would be difficult to find another son-in-law who would do the same. Principal Ding was undoubtedly fortunate, and the affection and energy he had invested in his son-in-law over the years were not in vain.

Because of Guan Ruyan’s son’s matter, people at the school had held some negative views of him. However, his participation in the kidney matching process completely reversed public opinion, and Guan Ruyan enjoyed that feeling.

In fact, Guan Ruyan was very clever. Before the final matching results were announced, he used his connections to inquire privately about the possibilities of a match. The person he entrusted was his most trusted doctorate, who had a classmate from his undergraduate days in the Organ Transplant Center of Affiliated Hospital No. 1. Naturally, he told the doctorate he desperately hoped to be a match so that he could save Principal Ding’s life.

The doctorate’s classmate discreetly gathered information and reported back that it was impossible for Guan Ruyan to be a match—the difference was too great, there was no hope at all.

When the doctorate conveyed this news to Guan Ruyan, his face was filled with sorrow and he sighed deeply, distressed that he couldn’t show his filial piety to Principal Ding. The doctorate at his side was also moved, witnessing such profound emotion.

The third consultation began. Although it was about acute renal failure, Chief Surgeon Yang Ping was still invited as the person who performed the surgery. Principal Ding’s life was temporarily saved, but to continue living, a kidney transplant was necessary. It was inevitable; it was just a matter of choosing the best time for it. The situation was increasingly bleak, with each dialysis session less effective than the previous one.

The results of the matching were also out. In fact, after the results came out, the doctors at the Organ Transplant Center had intended to call the three family volunteers involved in the matching. But considering the upcoming meeting, they decided not to call and would personally deliver the matching notifications to them instead.

There was no dispute in the third consultation meeting’s conclusion—kidney transplantation should be scheduled.

After the meeting, Director Yao held the organ matching documents, three sets of documents each sealed in their own envelope, and said, "As for the matching results, I can speak to each of you privately afterwards, okay?"

Guan Ruyan was quite open about it, feeling confident: "Director Yao, there are no outsiders here, and since it’s all family matching, you might as well announce it during the meeting. Teacher Ding’s condition is critical, and we might need to proceed with the kidney transplant at any moment, so let’s not beat around the bush and waste time, as every minute of waiting is agonizing."

Director Yao thought Professor Guan’s suggestion made sense. Principal Ding was a leader within the Nandu Medical University system, and the matter of family matching had been discussed in the previous meeting. Announcing it now would spare the need for individual discussions afterward, as long as the concerned parties agreed.

"Professor Ding? Professor Lu? Is that alright?" Director Yao sought the opinions of Lu Xiaolu and Ding Xinyu.

Ding Xinyu replied, "Of course, let’s announce it here in the meeting; there’s no need to waste any more time." Lu Xiaolu concurred, adding that everyone had already expressed willingness to donate their kidneys at the previous meeting, so there wasn’t any need to keep it secret now, as there was nothing to hide.

"How is it? Is there a compatible match?" Ding Xinyu was very worried. If the matching failed, her father would have to wait a long time for a kidney source.

With a relaxed smile, Director Yao said, "Principal Ding is very lucky. There’s a very suitable one. It seems your family really has strong blood ties."

Guan Ruyan’s heart settled completely now for sure; the suitable one couldn’t be him, since he knew his own match had failed. It was most likely Ding Xinyu, since the probability of success is highest with close relatives. As for Lu Xiaolu, while there was a possibility, it wasn’t likely, and for himself, it was already known to be completely impossible.

"I’ve been worried about what to do if the match wasn’t successful, but now I can finally relax. When is the surgery? What’s the process that follows?" Guan Ruyan behaved with ease and composure.

Director Yao replied, "I’ve already submitted the paperwork for ethical approval. There shouldn’t be any issues, as the entire process is completely voluntary among relatives, with no financial interests involved. Once the ethical review is approved, we will arrange the surgery as soon as possible."

"Thank you all for your hard work. Let’s hurry, as Teacher Ding’s condition is deteriorating day by day. I hope he can recover his health as soon as possible," said Guan Ruyan, with each word filled with emotion. No one would doubt his sincerity, for at times like these, involving organ donations, feigning emotions is impossible.

Director Yao couldn’t help but think, Principal Ding is really lucky to have a match among the three relatives, and it’s his son-in-law’s kidney, no less. From a comprehensive examination, Guan Ruyan’s physical condition is very good; both of his kidneys function normally.

On the other hand, Ding Xinyu was not a match, and even if she had been, the risks for her would be great, not suitable for donating a kidney to her father. Her other kidney was already as thin as paper due to a urinary system stone obstructing her urinary tract, which she wouldn’t have known about if not for this checkup, possibly feeling nothing at all.

Lu Xiaolu was also a match but was still inferior compared to Guan Ruyan. Lu Xiaolu could only be said to be adequate, whereas Guan Ruyan’s kidney match was excellent. In this critical moment, Principal Ding still relied on his son-in-law to save his life, which could also be considered fate.

Director Yao tore open the seals on three sealed envelopes and then carefully checked again, saying, "Professor Guan Ruyan’s kidney is the most compatible."

Upon the announcement of this news, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This way, Principal Ding wouldn’t have to spend a long time waiting for a kidney source and could undergo the kidney transplant surgery at any time, as long as his body could withstand the surgery and anesthesia.

Guan Ruyan was petrified upon hearing this news. Indeed, it was completely unexpected, and at this moment, he didn’t even know what to say, completely beyond his expectations.

Ding Xinyu, thinking he was too excited and thrilled, leaned in and gently embraced him, expressing her gratitude, "Thank you, thank you. I love you, and Dad will be proud of you."

Didn’t they say my match failed?

What’s going on?

Could there be a mistake?

If it were not for Guan Ruyan retaining some clarity at the moment, he might have nearly rushed forward to check the matching results himself. Donating a kidney, how could it be possible? With two perfectly good kidneys, donating one would mean being left with just one. Impossible, it had to be impossible.

"Professor Guan, you and Principal Ding really have a destiny," said Director Yao. "Let’s hurry the process and proceed with the surgery as soon as possible to prevent Principal Ding’s illness from worsening."

At this moment, Guan Ruyan’s emotions were indescribable. Forcing himself to appear relaxed, he said, "As soon as possible—right—quickly, but we must first ensure Teacher Ding’s body is well prepared to strive for the greatest success in surgery."
