Zhou Xu followed behind Gu Shen and praised him as usual. “Mr. Gu is very cooperative with our treatment. Although the treatment process was difficult and painful, he successfully made it.”
As he spoke, he put up his hand to give Yan Xi high-five.
Yan Xi was afraid that if she high-fived Zhou Xu, he would be tortured to death by the jealous Gu Shen.
She grabbed Gu Shen’s hand and high-fived it with Zhou Xu’s.
Gu Shen quickly retracted his hand and looked at Yan Xi unwillingly.
Yan Xi pretended not to see it and gave him a broad smile. “Come on! You’ll get better and better!”
“Mrs. Gu is right.” Zhou Xu handed Yan Xi another bag and explained, “There’s an ointment in here that can promote blood circulation. Remember to apply it on Gu Shen’s knee every night before bed so that it won’t hurt his leg muscles.”
Yan Xi noted this down and then asked about things to take note of.
She was extremely concerned and worried, and Zhou Xu could not help but be jealous of Gu Shen.
It would be great if he had a person who loved him so much.
As soon as they returned to their villa, Uncle Hai came up to them. He only found out today that Gu Shen would be treated again. After Gu Shen left the house, he waited at home uneasily and finally saw him.
“Master.” He looked at him eagerly and asked, “Do you feel better?”
Gu Shen said, “Uncle Hai, it’s only been a day. I don’t think it’ll take effect so soon.”
“I was too anxious.” Uncle Hai pursed his lips and revealed a rare smile. “Don’t worry. As long as we have faith, we’ll definitely get a good outcome. Master has always been a lucky person.”
Yan Xi loved to hear that. She handed Gu Shen to Uncle Hai.
“Uncle Hai, be careful when you help Gu Shen shower. Don’t let his knees touch the water. Also, this ointment…” Yan Xi glanced at Gu Shen.” I’ll apply the ointment for him later.”

Yan Xi smiled, glad that she had found a good reason to spend time with Gu Shen every night.
Yan Xi put away the ointment. Before Gu Shen was about to go to bed, Yan Xi took two pieces of the ointment and walked over.
Gu Shen lay on the bed, leaning against the bedhead. His loose pajama pants were rolled up, revealing the acupuncture marks on his knees.
He watched at the marks quietly, thinking about something.
Yan Xi walked over and her gaze landed on his thigh. There was a scar on his right leg that was very long and darker than the surrounding skin color.
Gu Shen was not used to showing others his scars. He subconsciously wanted to put down his pants, but Yan Xi reached out to stop him.
Her slender fingers rested on Gu Shen’s knee. Looking into his eyes, she bent down and kissed the ugly scar that had accompanied him for more than twenty years.
There were no other emotions in her eyes, only piety and focus.
Though Gu Shen couldn’t feel this kiss on his scar, his heart still skipped a beat, and there was a shocked look on his face that he couldn’t conceal. Gu Shen had never thought that Yan Xi would be willing to kiss his scar.
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?”
