“For all these years, she has been in contact with the orphanage from where I was adopted. Every month, she would call to ask if there was news about my biological parents. Now that I’ve found you, my mother would be the happiest person to hear about this.”

Xie Qingyan’s nose felt sore for a minute as she bent down and held Mother Qing’s hand.

“I’m so sorry, Sister Qing. It looks like I’m the one who’s being petty.”

Mother Qing shook her head.

“Thank you so much for taking care of my son as your own, and even putting in the effort to find his biological parents. I heard from Qing Yang that ever since your husband left, you have been depending on each other. If you don’t mind, you can be my sister from now on, and let’s live together. There are so many of us here and most of them are boys. All of them are frozen, black-hearted people and none of them are soft and gentle. If you have anything in the future that you aren’t happy about, my sons will be your sons as well, and they will be able to take care of it for you. They will take care of you as well.”

Mother Qing was shocked. She never thought that Qing Yang’s biological mother would say such things and she had no idea how to respond to it.

“Mum, please say yes? My family is doing well and my mother said that she will be able to provide us with a place where we can stay together. This way, I will be able to live with both of you.”

Seeing how his son was begging for it to happen, why wouldn’t she agree?

Mother Qing then nodded her head.

The entire family started chatting away, especially Xie Qingyan. As Mother Qing couldn’t talk at the moment, she continued blabbering away.

Qing Yang saw how both his mothers were happily chatting and decided to pull Jinqian aside so that they could speak in private.

Mother Qing noticed Qing Yang and knew that they were about to speak of something that they would never tell her. The look in her eyes suddenly became dull.

Jinqian, on the other hand, noticed the look on her face and smiled, “Brother, you can just ask me here. The surgery is a success. If she takes good care of her health, living for another 30 to 40 years wouldn’t be a problem. So, there’s nothing we have to hide from her.”

Mother Qing’s eyes widened in shock once again, and she didn’t believe what Jinqian was saying

The prognosis of surviving the next 5 years was merely 5%. Even with the surgery, her days were numbered.

Now, not only could she omit the radiochemotherapy, she had an additional 30 to 40 years to live. Not only Mother Qing was shocked, even the rest of the family thought that it was illogical.

Especially Xie Qingyan, who was still thinking about how to make the best of the rest of the days that Mother Qing had left since she had suffered so much in order to raise Qing Yang.

After hearing that there were 30 to 40 years left, the sad feeling in her heart disappeared.

“Oh darling! Tell us quickly! Why is it 30 to 40 years? Didn’t they say that the survival rate for the next 5 years would be extremely low?”

Jinqian slowly explained to them, “The reason why they said so was that the skills of the surgeon are limited. They wouldn’t be able to do the surgery without touching any important blood vessels in the brain, especially when the tumor is already more than 3 cm. Since they wouldn’t be able to remove them, the brain tumor that is disturbed would then start to retaliate. They would then grow rapidly, and once they suppress the nerves in the brain, they will eventually die in the end.

“Even if they do not grow rapidly, they would then spread to the rest of the body through the lymphatic system into the other organs. For example, we found a total of 13 metastatic sites in aunty’s lungs, liver, and lymph nodes.”

The rest of them gasped upon learning the news.
