Chapter 179  : How Can It Not Matter magic

It was eight o’clock before the two of them went downstairs for dinner.

At the dining table, Yan Xi said, “I’ve already sent the section to the Medical University. The results will be out tomorrow. I have to be there to keep an eye on them.”

Gu Shen nodded and placed the peeled prawns on Yan Xi’s plate.

He looked calm. If you only looked at that face, people would probably think he was attending some summit.

Xiaolan’s jaw had already dropped. She hid in the corner and used her eyes to convey her surprise to others.

It had always been others serving Gu Shen. They did not expect to see Gu Shen serving others.

No one dared to take a closer look. Gu Er was the first to notice that something was wrong. He saw a red mark on Gu Shen’s neck, half hidden behind his shirt.

“President Gu.” Gu Er asked, “Are you allergic? Put down the prawns. I’ll go get the family doctor for you now.”

“Come back!” Gu Shen said. His voice was calm, but he sounded a little exasperated. “I’m not allergic. There’s no need to call the doctor.”

“But that…” Before Gu Er could finish speaking, Gu Liu covered his mouth and dragged him away.

Yan Xi pursed her lips and giggled. She teasingly pretended to not know. “Your allergy looks a little serious. I’ll apply some medicine for you later.”

Gu Er said excitedly, “See, I told you, Mr… Ow!”

Gu Liu stepped on his foot heavily. “President Gu, Madam, please continue enjoying your meal. I have something to discuss with Gu Er.”

With that, he dragged Gu Er away.

Gu Shen looked at Yan Xi, who was trembling with joy, and said expressionlessly, “Are you full?”

“Not yet!” Yan Xi opened her mouth obediently. “The prawns are delicious.”

“Get the kitchen to buy more tomorrow.”

Xiaolan nodded. “Okay.”

…

In the middle of the night, Yan Xi lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Although Yan Dong was not close to her, he more or less knew about her. This time, because of his words, she almost exposed herself in front of Gu Shen.

Fortunately, she was quick-witted and thought of a perfect reason for herself. Moreover, Gu Shen’s reaction exceeded her expectations. He did not mind her change and liked her more.

Yan Xi thought that she might as well tell him about the truth, but before that, she had to give Gu Shen more time to get mentally prepared.

Yan Xi decided to let him read a few “Ghost Stories” first. There were many stories about female ghosts reincarnating in someone else’s body. After reading them, Gu Shen would probably be able to accept this kind of thing. Or she could just give Gu Shen a few romance novels that have a transmigration theme.

She sighed. ‘I’ll have to think about this carefully.’

Yan Xi rolled on the bed, thinking that she should just continue hiding the secret. Anyway, she had many secrets to hide from Gu Shen. She could tell him after Gu Shen’s surgery. At that time, even if Gu Shen couldn’t accept her, it didn’t matter because his leg would have been treated. It would be fine if she couldn’t be with Gu Shen in the future…

Thinking of this, Yan Xi felt a little sad. She didn’t want to leave Gu Shen. She wanted to be with him forever…

Moreover, Gu Shen had also said that he liked her current appearance and personality, so he should be able to forgive her for lying to him.

Yan Xi comforted herself, but she suddenly called something Xiaolan told her.

“Master hates deception and people going back on their words the most.”

Yan Xi sighed again and lay on the bed dejectedly.

She didn’t want to think about it anymore. Anyway, it was still early for the surgery. She would try her best to make Gu Shen love her more, enough to break his principles.

…

In the study room, Gu Shen was fiddling with his phone. He wanted to find the photos that Yan Xi had deleted, but after following the steps in the instruction video for a long time, he still could not manage to find the photos.

He sent Gu An a message.

“Awake?”

Gu An replied enthusiastically: “What’s wrong! Fourth Brother!”

“The photo on the phone was deleted. How do we get it back?”

“There should be a recycle bin in the phone album where you can retrieve the deleted photos.”

“Fourth Brother, is that Yan Xi’s photo? I saw your post. You two are so loving.”

“Fourth Brother, did you find the photo? Can you send it to me when you do?”

The messages were like a stone sinking into the sea. There was no longer any response. Gu An threw away her phone and revealed a fake smile.

She knew it would end like this.
