The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses-Chapter 1480 - Great to Have You (40)
Fan Shixin never informed Mu Wansheng about who the donor was. Mu Wansheng only found out when she visited the donor’s ward. To her astonishment, it was a teenager who had just turned eighteen.
After chatting with the teenager, Mu Wansheng could not help but take pity on her. She was still young and had yet to live life to the fullest. She had yet to get married but was already on the brink of death.
Besides, she was not a local in M Nation and was also a patient from S Nation. She did not come from a wealthy family either. Her parents had spent all their money on treating her, but there was no hope in her recovering at all.
The teenager agreed to donate her eyes after learning that she would receive financial aid and that she could help others.
Her eyes were the only organs that were not affected by her terminal illness.
Her days were numbered, and it was still unknown if her eyes would be affected in the near future. Hence, they decided to schedule the surgery for today after gaining the approval of the teenager and her parents.
Fan Shixin was the most nervous. However, he could not let his emotions show.
He did not want Mu Wansheng to feel even more worried than she already was.
When the head surgeon arrived, Mu Wansheng and the donor were wheeled into the operating theater while Fan Shixin and the donor’s parents waited outside.
This was the most worried and uneasy he had ever been, apart from the time during Mu Wansheng’s accident four years ago.
The surgery took two hours in total.
When the surgeon exited, Fan Shixin felt more assured after seeing his expression.
“Was it a success?”
“Of course. I’m known for my superb skills. It was very successful.”
“Thank you, Doctor. Thank you so much,” Fan Shixin said, holding his hand.
“It’s only my duty.”
The nurse then pushed Mu Wansheng and the donor out of the operating theater. The anesthesia had yet to wear off and, hence, the two of them were still unconscious.
Fan Shixin felt as if a boulder had been lifted off his chest. All they had to do now was wait for her to recover.
It was dead silent in the hospital ward.
He sat on the bed and stared at Mu Wansheng, whose eyes were bandaged.

Luo Hang and Xia Banqin’s divorce came as a surprise to Mu Qixing. They had already been together for so many years and their child was already a few years old, yet they were getting a divorce all of a sudden.
Mrs. Luo did not fancy Xia Banqin in the first place. Hence, they did not have any objections to their son’s divorce. Surprisingly, Xia Banqin looked her up first, giving Mu Qixing a great shock.
“How does his divorce concern me?”
“I just want you to relay a message to your family. I visited the Mu family in the afternoon. If you don’t want your family’s dirty linen to be washed in public, don’t stop me when I go there in the afternoon.”
Mu Qixing asked with raised brows, “My family’s dirty linen? Who does it concern?”
“You’ll know in the afternoon,” she said before leaving with her purse.
When Mu Qixing told Mr. Mu about the matter, Mr. Mu asked, “Did she say anything else?”
“No, she just mentioned that she would be coming by in the afternoon. She’s in no place to poke her nose into our business, but she has divorced Luo Hang. Could that have something to do with this? I’m not too sure either.”
The elderly Mr. Mu instantly understood what she meant. “We’ll know when she gets here.”
After lunch, Xia Banqin showed up at their doorstep. All the Mu family members were present except Wu Pingyang and Mu Wansheng.
“Ms. Xia, what dirty linen were you referring to when you spoke to my granddaughter?” Mr. Mu asked.
“I think it’s better if you guys see it for yourselves. After all, the concrete evidence will speak for itself,” Xia Banqin said, showing them the photos.
Mr. Mu was filled with exasperation the moment he saw the photos. However, he had no choice but to keep it in.
“I hired someone to snap those photos. Mr. Mu, Luo Hang and I have been together for ten years and we even have a child together. I’m not asking for an explanation today. After all, we’ve already gotten divorced. I just wanted to ask you if you had already planned to betroth one of your granddaughters to Luo Hang when I married him. First, it was Mu Wansheng, followed by Mu Qixing, and in the end, it became Wu Pingyang too. I just want to know why you’re so bent on ruining my marriage! I heard that Mu Qixing only married him because Wu Pingyang refused to, yet why did she come in between me and Luo Hang again? Is she just cheap and shameless!?! Does she enjoy being the other woman!?!”
Xia Banqin’s words were harsh and sarcastic. Mr. Mu had already turned as pale as a sheet.
Mrs. Wu retorted, “I beg your pardon? Are you any better yourself? Luo Hang dated you for six years and he still didn’t want to marry you. He just had no choice but to do so because you got pregnant. You scheming bitch, what right have you got to criticize my daughter?”
“That’s all because my ex-mother-in-law opposed our marriage. I’m different from your shameless daughter! Nothing you say can change the fact that she’s a homewrecker!”
Mrs. Mu flew into a rage and stepped forward in a bid to hit her. Mr. Mu yelled for her to stop. “What are you doing!?! Get back here!”
Mrs. Wu had no choice but to do as she was told.
Xia Banqin sneered, “She had the cheek to do such a shameless thing and yet you still won’t let others criticize her. If you want your daughter to be praised, you ought to take her in hand.”
Mr. Mu said, “Ms. Xia, since you’ve already divorced Luo Hang, there’s no need for me to take her in hand. If you came to look for me before your divorce, I would have done everything I could to break them up. However, there’s really nothing I can do now. After all, they’re both unmarried.”
“You do make sense, but that leaves me with no choice but to leak this scandal to the media. I believe Wu Pingyang’s reputation will be tarnished once the news spread.”
“Name your price. You came here for a negotiation, didn’t you?” said Mr. Mu.
Xia Banqin answered, “Five million dollars, no less than that. I forgot to tell you, these are only photos. I also have videos of them checking into a hotel together and getting intimate. I wouldn’t have come unprepared. I’ve already contacted the media as well. You’d better weigh the pros and cons and give me an answer now. Doesn’t she enjoy being the third party? She should be glad about having to pay too. You only have until today to decide.”
