Jiang recalled, “After surgery, I stopped feeling constant exhaustion.” Yang agreed, adding, “Exactly! I once slept for 10 hours straight and still felt tired. My body was sending warning signals.” Yang also gave a peek into his life after surgery. He said, “After my operation, I tried to maintain a healthy diet for six months.” But the foodie in him couldn’t resist forever — “One day, I suddenly found myself eating spicy seafood rice soup again,” he laughed.
