Chapter 149   Bringing Gu Shen A Cup of Milk

However, Su Wan brought this upon herself. If she dared to point a knife at Yan Xi, she deserved to die a thousand times.

Gu Shen lowered his eyes to hide the killing intents in them. He then heard Yan Xi say, “She came to find me today because Zhang Ming died in the prison.”

Yan Xi hesitated for a moment before saying, “Gu Shen, Su Wan said that you were the one who did this, but I don’t believe it. She doesn’t have any evidence, so why should she accuse you? Moreover, it’s nothing strange that Zhang Ming died in prison, given what kind of a lousy person he is.”

“I don’t believe you did it. You probably don’t even remember who Zhang Ming is.”

“I remember.” Gu Shen looked at Yan Xi. “I still remember this person, your first boyfriend.”

“No? I was just stupid and was deceived.” When Gu Shen brought this up, Yan Xi felt embarrassed. She went up to cover Gu Shen’s mouth. “Don’t say anymore. The only one I like is you!”

Gu Shen blinked and waited for Yan Xi to remove her hand before replying, “I’ll keep that in mind.”

Since dinner was about to begin, Yan Xi ran downstairs to get changed.

After watching her figure disappear, Gu Shen retracted his gaze and instructed Gu Liu coldly, “Wipe out all the evidence regarding Zhang Ming’s death, and send someone to keep an eye on Su Wan.”

Gu Liu nodded. “Yes.”

At night, Yan Xi lay in her room, reading a book, but she couldn’t focus on the book at all as her mind was occupied entirely by Gu Shen.

She was wondering what Gu Shen might be doing at this moment. Reading a book or documents?

She let her mind wonder for a while before she came to her senses and turned her attention to the book. However, her focus didn’t last for more than a minute.

Unable to remain calm, she got up from the bed and was thinking of a good reason to go in and see Gu Shen.

Today, she was lucky to see Uncle Hai carrying the milk up. It seemed like he was going to send it to the study room.

“Uncle Hai!” Yan Xi suddenly jumped out and scared Uncle Hai. She smiled and leaned over. “It’s so late. Go and rest. I’ll help you bring it to Gu Shen.”

Uncle Hai surely knew what was on her mind. He smiled and handed the tray to Yan Xi. “Madam, you have to make sure Master finishes this cup of milk.”

“Don’t worry, I promise to make him drink it all.”

The study room door was not closed tightly, so Gu Shen was about to hear the conversation between the two. He raised his head and fixed his eyes in the direction of the door.

Soon, there was a knock on the door and a small head stuck in.

“Gu Shen, Uncle Hai asked me to bring milk. Can I come in?” After saying that, she squeezed herself in through the door without waiting for Gu Shen to speak. She placed the milk aside and instructed, “This is very hot. Be careful when you drink it.” Then she sat down beside Gu Shen without asking for permission and asked him what document he was reading. Gu Shen looked up at her with a faint smile. “Aren’t you here to send milk?”

“Can’t I stay and talk to you?”

“Sure, you can.” Gu Shen smiled and showed her the document. “This is the treatment plan Doctor Zhou sent me. I just printed it out. We’ve already agreed on the date of the next consultation. It’s this Sunday.”

“So soon?” Yan Xi was stunned, but since Gu Shen’s schedule was tight, they had to arrange the appointment on Sunday.

Gu Shen unfolded the document. “Zhou Xu is very well-prepared. He did a comparison and analysis of my medical records over the years. Other than that, he also sorted out a list of experts for me to select.”

He was quite efficient.

Yan Xi pouted. She was the one who did these things, and that was why it was so meticulous. It took Yan Xi three nights to get them done.

However, it wasn’t time to come clean with Gu Shen yet. “Yeah, he’s pretty professional.”

Gu Shen stopped smiling and looked at Yan Xi expressionlessly. “Is that so?”

“Of course.” Yan Xi didn’t hesitate to praise him. “Look at this date, it’s very hard to put this date together. And the list of experts, it took a lot of research to come up with this list. Everyone of the experts are specializing in something. I need…”

She cleared her throat. “We need to compare the experts carefully and select the best few. See, isn’t he professional?”
