Gu Shen took the phone and said calmly, "Okay."

After the acupuncture session ended, Zhou Xu helped Gu Shen inject the nerve growth drug. At this point, Yan Xi looked away, because she couldn't bear to watch Gu Shen suffering from the enormous pain caused by the drug.

After that, Gu Shen rested in the ward while Zhou Xu called Yan Xi out.

"Mr. Gu's condition has stabilized. If there are no accidents, the surgery can be brought forward to next month."

Yan Xi nodded and took out a thick stack of documents from her bag. "These are all documents I collected."

"Alright, Senior, you have to rest well. I've noticed that you've lost a lot of weight recently."

"Thank you for your concern."

Zhou Xu said again, "After the surgery, we still need to treat Mr. Gu with drugs, so it's about time to plan the drug treatment."

There were still many drugs in this world that had yet to be released or developed. She nodded and agreed. "I'll take care of it."



Chapter 191: I'm On A Diet

Zhou Xu tidied up the documents and placed them on the desk in the office. When he looked up, he saw Yan Xi staring at the photo on the desk in a daze.

"This is my mother." Zhou Xu took the initiative to explain. "This photo was taken when she was young at UC. The little kid she was holding was me. I was four years old back then."

"Why didn't I see this photo before?"

Zhou Xu smiled sheepishly. "My mother just mailed this photo because I miss her."

"Your mother is very elegant," Yan Xi praised sincerely. The photo was a little blurry, and because of the pixels, the woman's face was not very clear, but Yan Xi could still feel the gentleness and elegance coming out of her.

"Thank you." Zhou Xu smiled. "My mother would be delighted to hear that."

Yan Xi smiled cooperatively, but she felt a little sad. No matter which world she was in, she seemed to always be alone.

Zhou Xu changed the topic to talk about acupuncture treatment just now. "Mr. Gu is very vigilant. You can fool him once or twice. As time passes, I can't guarantee that he won't find out."

"I'll change the acupuncture treatment for the next two sessions to low-pulse electrotherapy. You can also start preparing for the surgery in advance."

*****

In the evening, as soon as she came out of the rehabilitation center, Gu An drove Yan Xi to the mountain villa for a hot spring.

This time, her fourth brother was very generous. He reserved the entire villa and did not allow any strangers to enter. He even sent dozens of bodyguards to protect them.

After putting down her luggage, Gu An leaned against the car door and watched Yan Xi and Gu Shen say goodbye to each other. Though they were just going to separate for two days, they looked like it was the last time they would see each other.

"You have to sleep early at night. Remember to take your medicine on time. Also, you have to apply that ointment." After nagging for a long time, she reluctantly got into the car.

"I'll go now."

"Go ahead. Gu An is still waiting for you."

Yan Xi got in the car and fastened her seatbelt. Gu An was about to start the car.
