I can't accept it.

Aine took a deep breath, her eyes becoming resolute once more. “Doctor Yamada, I…even if I die on the operating table, I don’t want to die without dignity on the hospital bed.”

"Chihaya, this isn't up to you. Go back and discuss it with your father today. If it's confirmed, I'll apply for the specific use system on your behalf and submit it to the PMDA and IRB."

After Dr. Yamada finished speaking, a glimmer of hope flashed in Aine's eyes. That was to say... she still had hope of receiving surgery before becoming paralyzed!

Aine's voice trembled slightly with excitement. "That's great! Thank you, Dr. Yamada."

"No," Dr. Yamada shook his head. "I just said... whether the surgery can be performed or not is not my decision. Ultimately, their approval is required."

"Also... there's one more thing I need to clarify with you, Chihaya-san." Dr. Yamada continued, "Based on the progression of your ALS, I'm inferring that your body might not be able to wait for surgery. But if something does happen, it will be more reliable."

As he spoke, Dr. Yamada's eyes became firm: "I am responsible for your life and health. You need to consider these two options carefully."

"Is this so..."

Su Shi asked, "Then...if I apply, how long will it take for the application to be reviewed?"

"It'll probably take about one to three months, which is why I'm telling you this now." Dr. Yamada's expression remained serious. "If Chihaya-san's condition deteriorates further, her condition won't be able to support surgery, and our last hope will be lost."

Aine's mother thanked him, "So that's how it is. Thank you, Dr. Yamada."

"Nothing, I'm just trying to fulfill my duties as a doctor."

After bidding farewell to Dr. Yamada, the three of them left NCNP.

Standing on the side of the street, cars drove past one after another, and the noise echoed in the ears of the three people.

Su Shi reached out and grabbed Aine's hand: "Aine-chan, go home and discuss this matter with your uncle."

"Yeah, I know." Aine nodded. She was silent for a moment, then spoke, "As expected, I still want to have the surgery in advance."

"Why?" Su Shi frowned, her hands unconsciously clenching. "Didn't Doctor Yamada say that he was only inferring based on the current progress? What if... the ALS progresses further?"

After Su Shi finished speaking, she lowered her head. Although she felt that her words were a bit selfish, she still didn't want to let Aine take risks.

"but……"

Before Aine could finish, Su Shi interrupted, "Aine-chan...are you really willing to take this kind of risk? I'm really afraid of you on the operating table..."

Aiyin gently covered Su Shi's mouth and stopped her from speaking. She knew what Su Shi meant and there was no need for her to continue.

"Soyorin, then my waiting like this is also a kind of adventure, right?"

Hearing this, Su Shi didn't say anything. She turned her face away. Although Ai Yin was refuting herself, but... she was right. Waiting like this was also a risk.

"Well, since it's all a risk... we might as well face it upfront, right?"

After saying that, Aine smiled slightly, the sunlight shining on her face and reflected in Su Shi's eyes.

In an instant, Su Shi's eyes widened. Indeed... both choices are risky, but... rather than doing it earlier, doing it later... he can stay with us for a while longer.

"Aine-chan... Actually, rather than having surgery early, I'd rather you stay with us for a while longer. I'm scared."

Su Shi took a step forward and hugged Aine tightly.

"Sushi-chan, actually, Aine has just considered this idea carefully, right?"

Aiyin's mother walked over to Su Shi and tried to persuade her.

But how could she not feel pained by Aine's decision? If it was approved later, facing the surgery with uncertain probabilities, how could she not feel pained?

Didn't she also want Aine to stay with her for a while longer? Even if she was lying in bed, she knew in her heart that Aine was still alive and still with her.

However, Aine has already said that even if she dies, she does not want to die without dignity, so as a mother, I am willing to respect my daughter's thoughts, because this is something Aine has thought about carefully.

"Auntie..." Su Shi turned her head and a tear flowed from her eyes.

"Well, Sushi-chan, it's okay. Don't worry too much." Aiyin's mother forced a smile, but it didn't look very convincing on her slightly pale face.

Looking at Aine's mother's expression, Sushi buried her face in Aine's neck.

Auntie must be in pain too, her face is so pale... I shouldn’t make Aine and Auntie worry anymore.

Su Shi raised her face and let go of Aine: "Well, I understand, Aine-chan, I respect your choice."

Aine-chan, I respect your choice. I hope that in the future... you won't make me sad again, okay?

“Soyorin…” Aine nodded, feeling touched. “Thank you. Don’t worry, even if it’s an operation with an unknown probability, it will definitely be successful.”

As she spoke, Aine laughed, trying to lighten the heavy atmosphere. "Besides, didn't Doctor Yamada say that my ALS is caused by a single factor, so it will be easier to treat."

Su Shi nodded, as if hypnotizing himself, and agreed: "Yes, I will."

"Okay, the surgery hasn't happened yet, right? Cheer up." Aine raised her right hand and slowly lifted the corner of Suyo's mouth. "Come on, Soyorin, smile."

Su Shi forced a smile, but it would have been better if she didn't smile. The forced smile on her face full of worry looked uglier than crying.

“Pfft, Soyorin, you look so ugly when you smile like that.” Aine took out her phone and quickly took a picture of Soyo’s expression. “Okay, I’ll save this picture to my phone.”

“Aine-chan…”

"Okay, Soyorin, don't be sad." Aiyin held Sushi's hand, "You can stay at my house tonight. When my father comes back, I'll have a good talk with him."

"Mom, let's go back now?"

"Ah."

Chapter 285 Always supporting Aiyin from behind

Without waiting for Su Shi to refuse, Aine pulled her and started walking towards the station.

It was already evening when they got home. When the three of them opened the door, Aine's father was sitting on the sofa.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Aine's father turned his head and happened to meet the eyes of the three people: "Ah, you are back. How were the results of today's examination?"

"The progression of ALS is faster than Dr. Yamada expected." Aine replied, "By the way, Dad, there's something I need to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Aine's father patted his side, motioning for Aine to sit next to him. "Just tell me, Dad will do his best to support you."

Aine walked over to sit next to her father and told him everything that Dr. Yamada had told her today.

After hearing what Aine said, Aine's father held his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought.

Even though I just said that I would do my best to support Aine, but regarding this kind of thing...as expected, I still hesitate.

Aine's father didn't rush to answer. He turned his head to look at Aine's mother: "Honey, what do you think?"

"Me? I actually... support Aine." After Aine's mother said that, she turned and walked into the kitchen.

"Where's little Sushi?"

Seeing Aiyin's father throw the question to herself, Su Shi was a little surprised. She lowered her head: "Um... Uncle, you two are talking, I won't interrupt..."

Aine's father shook his head slightly and gestured for Su Shi to sit next to Aine.

After Su Shi came over and sat next to Ai Yin, Ai Yin's father pushed the fruit plate in front of Su Shi and said, "You are Ai Yin's girlfriend, and so are Xiao Xiang and Xiao Mu, so... you are also our family. Don't worry, just say whatever comes to your mind. No one will blame you."

Aine agreed, "Yeah, soyorin, just say what you think."

"I... Actually, I don't really want Aine-chan to have surgery early, because I still want her to accompany us more... But, this idea is a bit selfish after all." Su Shi lowered her head, her hair hanging in front of her, and she bit her lower lip lightly. "Compared to this, I will still respect Aine-chan's choice."

"I see..." Aine's father nodded, very satisfied with what Su Shi said. He smiled slightly, "Little Su Shi, you and I think the same."

"Eh?"

"Actually... your aunt probably thinks the same thing. After all... as Aine's parents, we don't want her to take such a risk." Aine's father's eyes were filled with loneliness, but then they were replaced by relief. "These two choices have their pros and cons... However, since Aine has chosen not to put her life in the hands of an unknown surgery, all we can do is to support her from behind."

“Dad…” Aiyin looked at her father’s figure and couldn’t help but feel a lump in her throat. She hugged her father tightly, “Thank you for supporting me.”

“It’s nothing,” Aine’s father shook his head. She patted Aine’s back gently. “But you’ve grown up now. If you don’t want to die without dignity on the hospital bed, you must be mentally prepared.”

"Dad will always support you." Aine's father said in a gentle tone, "No matter what happens, Dad will be behind you."

Aine couldn't hold back her tears, she said, "Yeah, I understand."

Aine's father let go of Aine and wiped the tears from her eyes: "Then you should talk to Dr. Yamada and ask him to apply."

"it is good."

Aine nodded and pulled Sushi back to her room.

After Su Shi closed the door of the room, she sat on the edge of Aine's bed with a smile on her face.

So... Uncle and Auntie have long considered me, Xiaoxiang, and Xiaomu as their own family...

Thinking of this, Su Shi felt that his depressed mood was relieved a little.

Is this...acknowledged?

Aine sat on the bed, typing a text message to Dr. Yamada word by word.

[Aine: Dr. Yamada, my father agreed.]

After sending the message, Aiyin turned her gaze to Su Shi. She clearly saw the curve of Su Shi's mouth. Seeing Su Shi happy, her mood was slightly relieved.

Aine's lips curled up slightly: "Soyorin, I feel inexplicably happy. Did you remember something happy?"

After hearing Aiyin's reminder, Su Shi finally noticed the corners of her mouth that were raised. She lowered her head, her face slightly red. "Well... just now, uncle said... that he considers me a family member, so..."

"Oh~" Aine laughed playfully, "Of course, she's my girlfriend after all."

After saying that, Aiyin approached Su Shi and licked the corner of her mouth with her tongue.

Because Su Shi had her head lowered, she didn't notice Aine's little movement and continued to talk to herself, "This feeling of being recognized... is really good."

"Soyorin, look up."

"Eh? Yi Longying strange things without leeks group"

Su Shi subconsciously raised her head, and the next second, a soft touch bloomed on her lips. She widened her eyes and looked at the girl who suddenly approached her, her heart full of surprise.

Why did Aine-chan suddenly...what was she going to do?

After a few seconds, Aine let go of Soyo. Her rosy cheeks looked incredibly cute: "Hehe, Soyorin is still so cute."

"Huh?" Su Shi tilted her head, confused, "Aine-chan, what's wrong with you all of a sudden?"

Aine shook her head, her breath heavy. “No, it’s not like that. I just wanted to kiss you. It’s been a while since we last kissed.”

"You." Su Shi smiled helplessly, "Take good care of yourself. You can think about this kind of thing later when you are better..."

Although Su Shi said this, her fading tone revealed her inner worries.

"Yeah, I get it." Aiyin naturally heard Su Shi's tone, but she didn't intend to add any more psychological burden to Su Shi.

"jingle."

The message alert tone of the mobile phone attracted the attention of the two. Aine took the phone and saw that it was indeed a message from Dr. Yamada.

[Dr. Yamada: Okay, I'll have your parents come over tomorrow to sign a statement, and then I can submit the application to PMDA and IRB.]

[Aine: Yeah, thank you, Dr. Yamada.]

[Dr. Yamada: You’re welcome.]

"Aine-chan, since you're planning on having the surgery earlier, then... when are you going to tell Xiaoxiang and the others?"

Aine fell into deep thought after hearing Sushi's words, but she soon decided on a time: "Let's wait until their tour is over and tell Tomorin and the others."

"The tour is over? When will that be?"

"Next weekend will be fine."

"I see." Sushi nodded. "Two performances a week, the people at Mujica are really amazing."

“Indeed.” Aine nodded, agreeing with Suye’s words, “Today’s performance… seems to be in Nagoya, right?”

After saying that, Aine took out her phone: "Yeah, that's right."
