My Mysterious Husband

Chapter 118 An Encounter With a Mysterious Man

The man answered: “Your leg is not fully recovered, so you’d better stop using this kind of crutch with wheels fixed under it. You may slip again, just like what just happened.”

Venus looked at the crutch carefully and nodded after hearing what he said. She answered: “Thank you. I will change another one. Are you a doctor? You seem to know this kind of stuff very well.”

When she finished, the man’s smile faded and his face clouded. He said in a hoarse voice: “It’s because I have similar experiences.”

For an instant Venus froze. She then said apologetically: “I’m so sorry. What I said was so inappropriate.”

She felt sorry for him. She thought he shouldn’t have gone through what she was going through because he was such a kind person. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The man seemed to be surprised when he heard her apology. He shook his head gently and said in a tender voice: “Don’t worry. I should be thankful for that experience, because it made me able to see the nature of many things.”

Venus felt she could really empathize with what he said. She said: “Indeed. We must go through some painful experiences to get more mature.”

The man laughed. He looked at his watch and said: “I have something to deal with, and I must go now. Take care.”

Venus nodded and said: “I will.”

Venus suddenly realized she forgot to ask his name, but he was already gone. Then She thought they just met by chance, and they wouldn’t talk with each other again even though they knew each other’ s name.

But she was wrong. Life is always full of surprises. You never know who are you going to meet and what kind of experiences are you going to go through. Nobody can predict the future.

The man didn’t leave the hospital after saying goodbye to Venus, because he needed to go to the orthopedics department, which was very near to Venus’s ward.

He found the department and walked in slowly.

A middle aged doctor was there. When the doctor saw the man, a look of suspended disbelief came across his face. He looked at the man up and down for a few times and then said in surprise: “Mr Ye!!!”

The man looked rather calm. He smiled gently and said playfully: “Uncle Li, I’m so glad you still remember me.”

Doctor Li was still in surprise, but he knew he’d better not to overreact. He wiped his sweat and said: “Of course I remember you. You come to me every time you get injured since you were little. Where have you been all these years?”

Kevin Ye raised up his head, thought about it and answered: “I’ve been traveling around these years, just to make myself fully relaxed and to broaden my horizons.”

Doctor Li smiled cheerily when Kevin finished. He sighed softly and said: “When I heard you were in trouble a few years ago, I was so nervous. Your big brother has been looking for you these years. He will be so happy when he learns you are back!!”

Kevin wore an unreadable expression when he heard about his big brother. He asked: “I heard he is married?”

Doctor Li looked so happy at the mention of the marriage. He said: “Yes. I heard that girl just graduated from college. They love each other very much. Many young girls in this hospital cried so hard when he

got married!”

Kevin said: “It seems like he is living a happy life.” He smiled slightly, but his tone betrayed his sadness.

Doctor Li was confused. He nodded and asked: “You haven’t seen him yet since you were back?”

Kevin shook his head and answered casually: “I will call him later. Now I need you to help me with something.”

Kevin then gave the doctor a yellow file and said: “I’ve been seeing doctors because of my right hand and these are my medical records. You are an expert in this filed, and can you please have a look of these and tell me does my right hand still have any hope to recover?”

Doctor Li took the file and studied the papers carefully. But the more he learned, the more his brow furrowed.

Kevin got the answer from Doctor Li’s expression, and he felt very disappointed.

He had been traveling around the world, and he told other people that he just wanted to get relaxed, but he was actually trying to find a hospital to cure his hand. But after visiting so many hospitals, the result remained the same.

He then learned that some domestic hospitals achieved great progress in the filed of orthopedics, and that’s why he decided to come back and give it a shot, and to visit his big brother. After all, they hadn’t seen each other for a very long time.

“What happened to your hand? How did it get injured so badly.” Doctor Li’s face was grim.

Kevin looked at his right hand which he could no longer feel, smiled, and said in a gentle voice: “Oh, it’s because of an accident. But don’t worry. I’m already used to it after so many years.”

Kevin realized his brother didn’t tell the others what happened to him at all. And he thought it was possible that his brother had already forgotten what happened that year and he had even forgotten about him, after all, his brother was already married.

Doctor Li felt so sad. He said sorrowfully: “You are always like this. You never stopped being considerate of other people’s feelings no matter how much pain you are in.”

Kevin laughed. He asked: “Uncle Li, please be honest with me. Does my right hand stand a chance of recovery?”

Doctor Li arched his brow and said in a subtle way: “These is a slim chance of making a full recovery.”

“I know. I’ll go back now. See you later.”

“See you.”

Kevin’s smile faded rapidly when he walked out of the room, and then his face contorted, as if he was in great agony.

He got similar responses for so many times, and he knew the doctor was basically saying that there is no hope for his hand. Because he once asked a French expert about it, and he was told he had a three percent chance of recovery. Three percent! Can it get any lower!!

What increased his pain was the fact that his big brother had got married. He couldn’t believe his brother was enjoying his life so much when he was still struggling in hell.
