Yan Xi wanted to praise him more, but her vision suddenly darkened. She subconsciously grabbed the desk in front of her to support herself from fainting.

  Zhou Xu quickly helped her up. “What’s wrong? I was going to ask you why your face is so pale.”


  “I’m fine. I just have low blood sugar. Is Gu Shen still applying medicine?”


  “Yes.” Zhou Xu pulled over a chair. “Sit down.”


  “Thank you.” Yan Xi took another sip of water and asked, “Since you are already familiar with acupuncture, you can be in charge of it in the future. Have you seen the surgery plan? Is there anything else you don’t understand?”


  Zhou Xu nodded. “In the email I sent you, there are questions that I don’t understand. According to Mr. Gu’s current recovery rate, the surgery can be carried out in two weeks.”


  “Delay it for a week. Gu Shen’s wound hasn’t fully recovered.”


  “Alright.”


  Yan Xi reached out her hand. Zhou Xu was stunned for a moment before he realized what she meant.

  He reached out and high-fived Yan Xijing.

  “Wish us success!”


  …


  It was already six in the evening when Gu Shen left the Rehabilitation Center. Just as he was about to get the driver to pick Yan Xi up, the hospital called.

  They said that Yan Xi had already left the hospital. She pulled out the IV drip and ran away without the medical staff knowing.

  Gu Shen raised his eyebrows and was about to ask Yan Xi what was going on when she sent him a message.

  [Gu Shen, you don’t have to pick me up. I’ve already left.]

  Afraid that Gu Shen would suspect her, she sent another message.

  [When are you coming home?]

  [Immediately]

  [Be careful on the way.] Yan Xi sent another cute cat emoticon and began to think about an excuse as to why she left the hospital secretly.

  After thinking about it, she still couldn’t come up with a good excuse, so she planned to just tell him that she didn’t feel comfortable staying in the hospital and left.

  Soon, the sound of a car parking outside the villa was heard.

  When Gu Shen returned, Yan Xi felt inexplicably scared and ran to her room.

  If she fell asleep, Gu Shen would probably just let her off this time.

  As soon as she lay down, there was a knock on the door. Yan Xi had no choice but to open the door.

  Gu Shen pushed the wheelchair in and asked bluntly, “The hospital said that you removed the IV drip and left the hospital yourself. Why?”


  Why did the hospital staff not mind their own business? Yan Xi thought to herself.

  “I just didn’t want to stay in the hospital. I wanted to go home.”


  Gu Shen’s face darkened. “You haven’t recovered yet. Why did you leave the hospital?”


  Oh no, he was really angry.

  “You’re not in the hospital.” Yan Xi quickly hugged Gu Shen’s hand and shook it gently. “I just don’t want to stay in the hospital alone. Gu Shen, I want to stay with you.”


  Gu Shen’s expression softened a little, but he was still a little unhappy about her leaving the hospital.

  “Ah.” Yan Xi threw herself into Gu Shen’s arms and rubbed her pale face against his chest. “Don’t blame me. I just can’t stay there without you.”


  From beginning to end, he didn’t intend to blame her at all.

  Gu Shen’s face turned cold. He pulled Yan Xi away and said seriously, “You’re still sick. Why are you so willful?”


  “It’s not a serious illness.”


  “Why do you have to be so hard-mouthed,” Gu Shen scolded.

  But just as he finished speaking, he was kissed on the lips. After kissing, Yan Xi said aggrievedly, “Am I hard-mouthed? My mouth is pretty soft.”


  “Gu Shen.” She leaned forward like a lazy cat. “Try it again.”


  While Gu Shen was still in a daze, Yan Xi took the opportunity to kiss him again. She softened her voice and said, “I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time.”


  Gu Shen was so angry that he almost laughed. He slapped Yan Xi’s butt.

  “There won’t be a next time.”


  “I promise!” Yan Xi immediately raised her finger. “I promise it won’t happen again.”


  “Alright, let’s go down and eat.” Gu Shen pinched her face and smiled helplessly. “Eat more. You need to put on some weight.”


  Yan Xi replied seriously, “I promise I will eat a lot.”
