Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother Chapter 2

At the Chinese Medical Academy.

A doctor in a white overall was looking gravely at a report.

Tang Wenyi nervously asked, “Dr. Chen, how is it?”

“This is bad.”

Dr. Chen sighed heavily and said, “Your son has end-stage uremia. The only way for him to survive is to undergo a kidney transplant.”

Letting out a sigh of relief, Tang Wenyi waved her hand and said ostentatiously, “It’s good that he can survive. No matter how much it costs, we can pay. So, Dr. Chen, when can you arrange for the surgery?”

“If only it were that simple.”

“I’m sorry,” said Dr. Chen, looking troubled. “Our hospital has yet to find a suitable kidney for your son.”

Tang Wenyi’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What?!”

“If your hospital doesn’t have it, do other hospitals have it?” Lu Yaohua asked hurriedly.

1

Dr. Chen shook his head. “As far as I know, I’m afraid there’s no kidney in Shanghai that can be matched.”

Tang Wenyi slammed the table and said angrily, “Then what use do I have for you doctors?! I donate so much money to your hospital every year, but at the critical moment, you guys are useless!”

2

“Trust me, I’ll have this place of yours smashed!”

3

Dr. Chen was shocked at her words. He trembled as he said, “Even if you smash our place, we really can’t concoct a compatible kidney…”

Lu Yaohua frowned and patted his wife’s shoulder comfortingly. Then he asked, “Will my son survive if he doesn’t undergo surgery?”

“Mr. Lu, let me put it this way. If we can’t find a suitable kidney, death is imminent.”

3

Dr. Chen paused, as if he thought of something, but said nothing.

On seeing this, Tang Wenyi snorted. “If you don’t come up with a solution today, you can expect to lose your job!”

“Dr. Chen, did you think of something? No matter what it takes, as long as you can save my son, I can give you anything!”

Lu Yaohua continued, “If the surgery is successful, I’ll give you another 1,000,000 yuan.”

1

A stick and a carrot. Dr. Chen hesitated for a moment before saying, “Actually, there is another way. If we have the kidney of a sibling, that is fine too.”

Lu Yaohua quickly remembered that he had another son. He looked at the man and asked, “Is it also fine if they have the same father but different mothers?”

“… Yes.”

Dr. Chen nodded. He had heard some rumors about Lu Yaohua, so he naturally knew that he had a son outside; only, he felt sorry for the elder son.

1

He added, “If you can convince him to agree, our hospital will immediately arrange for surgery. It will depend on whether the other party is willing or not.”

Tang Wenyi said nonchalantly, “So what if he doesn’t want to? Yaohua, you’ll make him agree, right? You won’t feel bad for a mere bastard, right?”

Lu Yaohua replied matter-of-factly, “Why would I? After all, Lu Ze is our real son.”

…

Whereupon, Lu Yaohua took a deep breath. He had to get Lu Ming to agree to this!

At the thought of this, he looked up at Lu Ming who had opened the door.

Lu Ming asked coldly, “Why are you here?”

Lu Yaohua forced a smile. “I just wanted to visit you. How have you been these past few years? Oh right, where’s Wenfang? Is she at home?”

Upon hearing this, his heart turned even colder.

“Mom had passed on two years ago.”

Lu Yaohua’s expression froze for a few seconds.

Lu Ming continued, “What’s your purpose for coming here? If you’re here to see me, I don’t think a normal person would choose to bring unrelated people along.”

Tang Wenyi knew that he was implying something, so she rolled her eyes and muttered, “He really thinks he’s a big shot now.”

If not for the fact that she needed Lu Ming’s help, would she have come personally?

Lu Yaohua pulled Lu Ze forward and said, “This is your older brother. Call him ‘brother’.”

Lu Ze looked at Lu Ming in disdain. Since when did he end up having to call a rag-and-bone man ‘brother’?

Lu Yaohua gave him a warning look.

2

He reluctantly said, “Brother.”

3

Lu Ming sneered. “I dare not accept being called ‘brother’ by you.”

He looked at Lu Yaohua and asked, “Is there any other matter?”

Lu Yaohua saw that he was not moved and softened his attitude. He said, “Little Ming, your brother hasn’t been sleeping or eating well recently. He doesn’t even have any energy left. We only found out that he has end-stage uremia after his medical examination.

Little Ming, only you can save him now.”

Lu Ming felt increasingly agitated.

He thought that Lu Yaohua had finally repented, but this did not turn out to be the case.

This person was still trying to exploit his last bit of value!

He clenched his fists. “No energy? Look at him! You’re telling me this is called no energy?”

Lu Ze’s face was flushed. At most, he looked a little pale. Moreover, Tang Wenyi had been making tonic soups for him recently, causing him to be slightly fat.

“No matter how miserable his life is, he just needs to wave his hand and there will still be one servant after another caring for him! But I’m living like a beggar, not knowing when my next meal will be!

You only think of me now? When you abandoned your wife and child a few years ago, have you ever been soft-hearted? Two years ago, you weren’t even there when mom passed away!”

Lu Ming did not wish to suppress his anger anymore. In one breath, he vented all the grievances that had piled up over the years!

“Lu Yaohua! If he’s your son, then who the f*ck am I?!”

Lu Yaohua was speechless.

Upon seeing this, Tang Wenyi said affectedly, “Since you’re Yaohua’s son, you’re my son. We’ll be family from now on. I also don’t mind having you move into our house.”

Lu Ze added, “I’ll definitely treat you like my own brother…”

“Who’s your family? I have nothing to do with your family!”

Lu Ming interrupted them. “You want my help? Dream on!”

Lu Yaohua said forcibly, “Little Ming, we’re family. Can you bear to leave your family in the lurch?”

2

“Yeah! It’s just a kidney, not your heart!” Tang Wenyi said matter-of-factly.

6

Lu Ze added, “You’re the older brother. Isn’t it perfectly justified for you to save your younger brother?”

Looking at the three of them, Lu Ming no longer held any hope in his so-called father.

At that moment, he could hear an electronic voice in his mind:
