Transmigrating Into A Female Side Character As A Prodigal Doctor

After telling her identity, Yan Xi stood up and planned to go back and take care of Gu Shen.

She took a few steps and suddenly turned around. "By the way, some of the steps in the thesis you published last year can be deleted to reach the optimal outcome. This way, the experimental subject will recover more easily and the pain he feels will be lessened. I'll teach you the specifics."

Zhou Xu's eyes lit up and he said, "Thank you, Senior!"

…

When Gu Shen heard that Zhou Xu would replace Professor Qin Liang, he had a complicated expression.

"Does Doctor Zhou know acupuncture? I remember that in the meeting, he said that he only knows the theory of it."

Yan Xi explained, "Doctor Zhou used to learn acupuncture from Professor Qin Liang, so he knows one thing or two about it."

"Really?" Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.

"Of course it's true. Doctor Zhou will definitely not disappoint us."

Gu Shen retracted his gaze and asked, "Then why do I have to be blindfolded?"

Yan Xi tried her best to maintain a calm expression. "Acupuncture treatments can be gruesome, so it might affect the patient's mentality."

"Did you get blindfolded while receiving your acupuncture session?"

Yan Xi nodded and said, "Yes."

"I'm not that fragile. There's no need to blindfold me."

What a problematic patient. He doesn't even listen to the doctor, thought Yan Xi to herself.

"That's for your own good." Yan Xi started to act cute. "Just do as I say, Gu Shen." As she spoke, she tugged at his sleeve.

Gu Shen pursed his lips. His expression softened, but he still said, "Thank you. I don't think I need it."

Yan Xi was angry. She took a deep breath and stressed, "Listen to the professional medical advice."

"What's the reason? Even if it's medical advice, you have to give me a reason."

She didn't know that Gu Shen could be so stubborn. Yan Xi tried to control her anger but realized that she couldn't.

"Why do you have so many questions?! It's written on the medical advice that it's only because people care about you that they blindfold you. Facing your own injuries and watching the acupuncture process, your mind will get shocked! Why don't you listen to me!"

Gu Shen's expression darkened and the atmosphere in the ward became heavier. Stepping forth, Zhou Xu added, "Mrs. Gu, don't worry. I'll talk to Mr. Gu about it."

"No need." Gu Shen looked at Yan Xi. "Is this how you talk to me?"

No one had ever talked to him like this. Even Gu Hai would not talk to him like that.

Over the years, this was the first time Gu Shen had been lectured like this.

"You have to listen to the doctor." Yan Xi's tone did not soften. Zhou Xu, who was beside her, was frightened.

"I do listen." Gu Shen lowered his eyes, looking a little aggrieved. "I just have some questions."

After a moment, he added, "I think what you said makes sense now. I have no more questions."

Yan Xi burst out laughing. She also felt that her tone just now was too harsh and she shouldn't be angry with Gu Shen.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to shout at you." She blinked, her voice softer than before. "I was just anxious and worried about you."

"You're not angry?"

"No." Yan Xi whispered into his ear, her voice soft and sweet. "I'm really not angry."

Zhou Xu couldn't bring himself to watch them displaying affection. He cleared his throat and interrupted, "It's good that Mr. Gu agrees to this. I'll go prepare the things needed for acupuncture now."

"Okay." As soon as Yan Xi finished speaking, Zhou Xu stood up and left.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Yan Xi mumbled. Suddenly, Gu Shen grabbed her neck and pulled her to him.

"You're really not angry anymore?"

"I am not…" Before she could finish, Gu Shen sealed her lips.

"Sorry for making you angry." His voice was soft, and his breath was circulating around Yan Xi's ear. As he kissed her, he whispered, making Yan Xi dizzy and almost drowning in his gentleness.
