Matthew glanced at Crystal and sat down next to the man. Despite being insulted by the people aroundhim, the man turned a deaf ear toward everybody. Instead, he held his bowl and gulped down all of thesoup. Seeing this, Crystal felt even more angry and thought that this swindler was too arrogant.

“Matthew, if you can’t tell me what I’ve done wrong, I’ll call the police right now!” Crystal yelled furiously.Deep down, she secretly vowed to never meet Matthew again. The reason she asked to meet Matthewwas because she admired him deeply. However, what Matthew did today really made her look down onhim.

Then, Matthew patted the man’s shoulder and suddenly asked, “When’s the operation?”

Hearing this, the man was stunned for a moment and his expression instantly changed. Looking atMatthew in disbelief, he asked, “H-How did you know?”

In a soft voice, Matthew replied, “I could tell at one glance as soon as you and your father entered therestaurant.”

The man immediately lowered his head and with tears in his eyes, he murmured, “Soon. The operationwill be done in a few days once we collect enough money.”

When Matthew heard this, he sighed and said, “Do you know as soon as the operation is done, you’lllose your life?”

The man gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Meanwhile, Crystal was a little shocked. With her voice lowered, she asked, “W-What operation? Are yousick? The reason you tricked people out of their money… is to cure your illness?”

At that moment, she panicked. If she had treated a patient rudely, she would feel apologetic. However,the man shook his head and replied, “No. I’m not sick.”

Crystal immediately blushed in embarrassment. “If you’re not sick, why are you swindling? You… You…”

The man solemnly replied, “But my dad is!”

After saying this, the man burst into tears. “He has uremia. We couldn’t replace a suitable kidney source, sowe can only use mine. I can’t skip meals and I have to make sure I have enough nutrition. I-I have tosave him!”

After Crystal heard this, she was completely dumbfounded. The statement shocked her so much that hermind went blank completely. Meanwhile, the onlookers also became silent. Nobody had imagined thatthis would be the case.

After a while, a man from the crowd said, “Oh, this man is really filial! However, it’s just a kidneytransplant. It’s not something serious. Sir, I know a friend who had one of his kidneys cut off and he’sliving well right now, so be a little more optimistic. There’s no challenge in this world that you can’tovercome.”

Crystal nodded in agreement. However, Matthew sighed and said softly, “If he has two kidneys, he canstill live after giving one up for transplant. But what if he only has one kidney?”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room was stunned. Then, Crystal shouted in surprise,“How does he only have one kidney?”

Matthew turned to look at the man, who was clenching his fists so tightly that his fingers cut into hispalms. After gritting his teeth for a while, he whispered, “In order to pay for his bills for the past fewyears, I… I sold one of my kidneys a long time ago.”

At that instant, there was a commotion in the restaurant. No one had thought that it would be such asituation.

Crystal anxiously said, “You only have one kidney left but you’re planning to give your father a kidneytransplant. Doesn’t that mean that you’ll definitely die? H-How can you do that?”

The man glanced at Crystal before looking at the street outside the restaurant. Then, in a whisper, hereplied, “He has always taught me to be honest and down-to-earth. It doesn’t seem like I can be honestin this life so I can only repay what I owe him! I was born into this world because of him so there isnothing wrong for me to leave this place for him! I’m sorry, everyone!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out of the restaurant in tears. Crystal, on the other hand,slumped onto a chair and was completely dumbfounded. It was only then that she understood whatMatthew meant when he said not all things can be defined as right or wrong. At that moment, Crystalsuddenly recalled how the man carried his father into the restaurant a while ago.

Perhaps his father used to carry him like that when he was young. There is a saying, ‘You raised me upso I’ll take care of you when you’re old. The biggest regret in this life is that I can’t stay by your sideforever.’
