“It’s a coincidence.”The one who answered Yun Xiangxiang was song Mian. “This child was found to have a severe combined immune deficiency.”

Song Mian had paid attention to the news when it first came out. Using the convenience of the hospital, he easily knew the child’s illness.

“What is a severe combined immune deficiency?”Yun Xiangxiang blinked her eyes and looked at Song Mian.

She had heard of many infant diseases, but this was the first time she had heard of such a disease.

“It is a congenital disease. The humoral and cellular immune systems are defective, and the immune system is very weak. It is easy to be infected by viruses and bacteria,”song Mian tried to explain to Yun Xiangxiang in a concise and straightforward manner.

Yun Xiangxiang finally understood. It was just that the immune system was very weak. This disease was not formed after birth, but was congenital. No one else could have tampered with it.

Although it was a pity that the child had this disease, it was not because they had been killed. Yun Xiangxiang felt a little less guilty.

“Is he serious now?”Yun Xiangxiang was still a little concerned about the child’s health.

“It’s very serious. He has diarrhea hundreds of times a day.”Song Mian had already gotten the child’s medical record.

“Hundreds of times!”Yun Xiangxiang could not help but raise her voice.

An adult with diarrhea could collapse four or five times a day. An infant with diarrhea hundreds of times a day. Yun Xiangxiang could not imagine how serious it was.

“Is there any hope for treatment?”It was really unbearable for such a young child to suffer such pain. He was only a little over half-year-old.

“The hope is not high.”Song Mian had specifically talked to the experts in western medicine from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.

The child was too young, and the onset of the disease was already at its most dangerous. There were many drugs that could not be used, and they had very little to start with. They had to be careful with every step they took, or they would end a young life with their own hands.

Many hospitals would not accept such patients. They really could not treat them, and seeing them every day made the doctors despair.

Yun Xiangxiang suddenly felt a little down, and she said gloomily, “I’ve always known that lack of money to treat patients is not the most desperate.”

The most desperate thing was that she had everything, but she could not save him. She could only watch as the fresh flowers withered day by day.

“Can… can I go and see him?”Yun Xiangxiang asked He Wei for his opinion.

If this child was the cuckold that Xu Zi had made for Xue Yu, she would definitely turn a deaf ear to it.

However, he was also so innocent. Back when the child was found, Yun Xiangxiang had also hugged him. He was so cute and soft.

No one would have thought that he would get such a disease in just half a year’s time.

“Go.”He Wei did not stop Yun Xiangxiang. “I’ll go with you.”

“How about… calling senior brother along?”Yun Xiangxiang did not know if she should suggest it.

She was also in a mess. The criticism online was no less than before. In the eyes of the outside world, this child was Xue Yu’s child.

“I’ll ask him what he thinks.”He Wei gave the choice to Xue Yu.

They had agreed to go to Zhejiang province to record a variety show. First, they would go to Beijing. It wouldn’t be a problem to mix up their schedules.

However, Xue Yu didn’t go with them. He bluntly said that he didn’t know where to stand. He also didn’t know how to face this poor and innocent child, as well as Xu Zi, who had once loved him deeply but lied to him, what kind of expression was he putting on.

He knew that if he went to the hospital a few more times and put on a show, he would easily be praised by the public.

However, putting on an act with such an innocent child, Xue Yu knew that he was not shameless to such an extent.

Yun Xiangxiang actually understood Xue Yu’s current situation and complicated feelings. She asked Xue Yu if he wanted to go, but she did not ask him to put on an act. She was worried that Xue Yu wanted to go, but it was not easy for him to go alone, so she came up with such a suggestion.

Yun Xiangxiang could understand whether Xue Yu wanted to go or not.

Under the cover of Song Mian, she and he Wei quietly arrived at the hospital. She saw Xu Zi, who looked extremely haggard. She didn’t think that Yun Xiangxiang would come to visit her. She actually wanted to smile, but it was even uglier when she laughed than when she cried.

Yun Xiangxiang also saw Xu Zi’s mother here. She was a slightly chubby and fair-skinned woman. She didn’t look mean, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked very haggard. It was probably because the child wasn’t doing well, and it was tiring to take care of her.

It was clear that Yun Xiangxiang really felt sorry for her grandson. Before she met Xu Zi’s parents, just based on what Xue Yu had said before, Yun Xiangxiang actually had a negative impression of Xu Zi’s parents.

Now that she saw them, at least her first impression of them was not bad.

She did not have any negative feelings towards Yun Xiangxiang. Instead, she tried her best to put away her sadness and pour them tea.

Yun Xiangxiang took the Teacup and did not know what to say. She held the Teacup in her hand and was silent for a moment before asking softly, “What did the Doctor Say?”

“The Doctor said that there might be a chance of survival through the reconstruction of the immune system through the bone marrow transplant.”Xu Zi’s voice was hoarse and her tone was weak. She was very tired and weak.

The probability of finding a biological brother or sister for the bone marrow transplant was the highest. The parents were definitely not a match.

It was obvious that the child did not have a biological brother or sister. Moreover, such a disease could not wait for the birth of a newborn. Therefore, it was not easy to find a match from someone who was not related by blood.

This was not blood. A large number of volunteers were willing to donate. Usually, the people who donated bone marrow were those who wanted to make a final contribution to society before they died. They would donate their body organs.

“I. . . How can I Help You?”Yun Xiangxiang asked softly.

Xu Zi’s red and swollen eyes looked at Yun Xiangxiang for a while. Finally, she smiled and shook her head. “You have already helped me a lot.”

She knew that Yun Xiangxiang’s boyfriend was a very good doctor. It was easy to deal with people in the imperial court. Even if song Mian was not good at this, it would be faster and more hopeful to find a suitable bone marrow through connections.

However, Xu Zi did not say that. She recalled the time when the child in the kindergarten was in trouble. She panicked and begged song Mian to save her. At that time, her character was too weak and she had not experienced anything. She could not handle things, she only thought of escaping and placing her hopes on others.

Now, she was no longer the timid and weak person she used to be. Only then did she understand that no one had the right to kidnap anyone.

This child had brought her a lot of pain, but he had also brought her a lot of enlightenment. She had never complained, but her heart was really tugged on some heartstrings.

Yun Xiangxiang thought about how grateful she was to be able to come all the way here today. How could she have the face to ask for other help.

“Thank you. Although my family isn’t very wealthy, I still have some savings. I’ve also bought insurance for him.”Xu Zi smiled gently at Yun Xiangxiang.

Yun Xiangxiang deeply felt Xu Zi’s change. This was her growth. If she had been like this two years ago, she and Xue Yu would definitely be beautiful.

The price of growth was as painful as turning a cocoon into a butterfly.
