Transmigrating Into A Female Side Character As A Prodigal Doctor

Chapter 157-159

Yan Xi stood up and did not ask anything. She then started helping Gu Shen apply the ointment with gentle and careful movements.

"It happened when I was eight." Gu Shen closed his eyes. "That night, the New Year's Eve celebration in the amusement park that was shown on television was very lively. I wanted to go and take a look. It was already very late at that time and it was snowing heavily on the road, but my parents doted on me very much. They didn't reject my request and instead took me to the amusement park."

Gu Shen still remembered that there were many fireworks at the amusement park that day. The staff in the costume gave him a Mickey Mouse plushie. His parents smiled and asked if he was happy.

"When we came back, the snow fell even heavier. When the car was turning, the truck opposite couldn't stop in time and hit our car. I didn't die because they protected me in their arms."

Gu Shen started to tremble. He felt very cold even if it was some 35 degrees outside.

"I've been thinking about it. If I didn't want to go to the amusement park that day and stayed at home like a good kid should, would they be alive?"

Chapter 158: A Ray Of Light For Him

Yan Xi looked at Gu Shen in disbelief. She did not expect Gu Shen to be willing to tell her about the car accident and expose his inner scar to her.

This was a scar that was engraved in his heart. It could never be healed. Although it had improved under the psychiatrist's treatment, once he recalled it, he felt like he had been thrown into a bone-chilling ice water, making him shiver violently.

Yan Xi hugged Gu Shen and said gently, "Gu Shen, the truck driver was responsible for the accident, not you. You don't have to take responsibility for everything. You don't have to live your life in guilt. Your parents definitely don't want to see you like this, because they love you very much."

"They won't blame you. They just want to see you live well, happily, carefreely, or alive."

Gu Shen opened his eyes, his eyelashes trembling.

"But everyone... Everyone is talking about me being stubborn and saying that I killed my parents."

"It's not you." Yan Xi hugged him tighter, shaking her head vigorously.

"The people who said that know nothing. They're wrong! They used words to attack you and blamed you for everything. They are wrong!"

Gu Shen did not speak. He leaned into Yan Xi's arms. Her embrace was very warm, making Gu Shen feel that the snowy night that night did not seem so cold.

The book only talked about Gu Shen's suffering, but Yan Xi knew that he had suffered more than mere words could describe.

After suddenly losing his parents and legs, he still had to endure the harsh words and treatments from his relatives for so many years. Yan Xi did not dare to think about how he endured all this.

"Actually, every one of us is a small planet." Yan Xi sniffed and said with a smile, "The dark matter around us are those deceased relatives and friends. We can no longer see them, but under the influence of gravity, they will still rotate around us. If we work hard to shine and make our planet like the sun, we can light up the way home."

"Life can't be eternal, but love can. So your parents never left. They just changed their way of staying by your side." Gu Shen hugged Yan Xi tighter, as if trying to confirm whether the girl in his arms really existed or not.

He was restrained in the endless darkness, but now, a beam of light shone into his life, dispelling all the darkness.

The two of them hugged quietly. After a while, Yan Xi asked awkwardly, "It's almost 12 o'clock. Do you want to rest?"
