Chapter 546: Chapter 546: Give Him the Key
Yuexue quietly opened a crack in the door and watched Shen Heyu and Gu Siyu walking away. Shen Heyu was carrying a dical kit initially, but Gu Siyu, concerned about exhausting her, took over the dical kit from her.
“He’s handso and wealthy, and exceptionally gentle and considerate. Most importantly, he’s passionately devoted—he’s been secretly in love with Mommy for five years without having any romantic history with other won.”
“Soone like him is worthy to be my dad, and to treat , he even requested his senior sister to co out of her retirent. He is competent himself and also knows many capable people. Five-star rating.”
After silently scoring Gu Siyu, Yuexue quietly closed the door. Shen Heyu and Gu Siyu, walking away, were unaware of what had just happened.
Shen Heyu followed Gu Siyu to his office where he took off his white coat and rolled up his sleeves. Shen Heyu then saw the marks of her nails on his arm, causing her conscience to slightly ache.
“I’m sorry, I really didn’t an to do that just now. I will be more careful in the future,” Shen Heyu said as she took out a cotton swab and began to disinfect his wound.
“It’s just a minor injury. You’ve apologized twice now; aren’t you making too much of it? I’m a grown man; a little pinch isn’t that serious. Plus, I don’t feel any pain, so don’t feel guilty,” Gu Siyu actually comforted Shen Heyu while she carefully wiped his injury with a cotton swab.
“But your assistant ntioned you have a very important surgery tomorrow. Now, I’ve injured your hand; what if you can’t hold the scalpel steadily in surgery?”
Shen Heyu sighed lightly, knowing how critical a doctor’s hands are. Any injury could potentially risk a life, intensifying her guilt.
Hearing Shen Heyu’s worries, Gu Siyu sighed helplessly, “It’s really not as severe as you think. Although I am a doctor, you know, this job is not only intellectually demanding but also physically. It’s normal to work continuously for forty-eight or even seventy-two hours.”
“If I didn’t have the stamina, how could I work those long hours? And I usually exercise after work. Don’t worry, this minor injury won’t affect my steadiness with the scalpel.”
Hearing Gu Siyu’s words made Shen Heyu feel much better. She looked up at him and nodded.
“What did you have to sacrifice to persuade your senior sister to help out? Tell , so I can properly thank you later.”
“Didn’t I tell you? My senior sister is quite proud, she just wanted to praise her. I never praised her before, so after I said lots of good things, she agreed to co.”
“By the way, she’s settled in the villa I arranged and has started researching the poison affecting Yuexue. I’ll arrange for you two to et within the next few days. After all, you are Yuexue’s mother; so things are better heard directly.”
“Sure, you’ve helped so much, I don’t even know how to thank you properly.”
Shen Heyu genuinely felt guilty, knowing Gu Siyu was only Yuexue’s attending physician, yet he not only treated the illnesses but also assisted Shen Heyu with her personal issues and helped fend off Pei Yansi and Lu Yi.
He even humbled himself to request his senior sister’s help, a first for soone like him who had always been privileged.
“What are you thinking about so deeply?”
“Nothing much, just a bit tired.”
“If you are tired, you should sleep well here. My office is equipped with a rest area. If you don’t mind, sleep here for a while, and later you can go see Yuexue.”
Shen Heyu imdiately declined. After treating his wound and discarding the cotton swab, she pulled out an antiseptic wipe and cleaned her hands.
“How could I? I’ve already troubled you so much, I can’t impose on your rest area. It’s all right, I’ll just lie down on the sofa in Yuexue’s room for a bit.”
As Shen Heyu was about to get up, Gu Siyu gently held her back.
“I’m serious with you, this concern would just worry Yuexue further. For her sake, rest well and then show up in front of her refreshed, okay? Besides, I have a eting later, so my rest area will be vacant.”
“I hope you don’t mind, this would be better for my resting ti. Here are the keys to my office, if you ever need to rest in the future, feel free to use my rest area.”
Gu Siyu generously handed Shen Heyu the keys to his office. Holding the keys, she suddenly felt deeply moved.
“Go rest in the rest area, I’m off to a eting so I won’t disturb you. After the eting, I hope to see you reenergized.”
Gu Siyu didn’t give Shen Heyu a chance to refuse. After handing over the keys, he left the office. Shen Heyu watched his retreating figure, feeling a bit dizzy.
She was indeed tired. Eventually, she walked toward Gu Siyu’s rest area. As soon as she lay down on the bed, her eyelids beca heavy and she quickly fell asleep.
As Gu Siyu left his office, he ran into Hu Xiaoqiu, who looked behind him.
“Boss, where’s the Heavenly Immortal Miss? Why isn’t she here?”
“She’s resting in my office’s rest area. Stay here and make sure no one disturbs her. Got that?”
Hu Xiaoqiu nodded solemnly, “Don’t worry, boss—no one will disturb her. By the way, the director called you into a eting.”
“I know.”
After Gu Siyu had left, Hu Xiaoqiu remained extrely vigilant, sitting on the chair outside the office door, determined to protect Shen Heyu so she could sleep peacefully.
When Gu Siyu passed by Yuexue’s room, he was called.
“Uncle Gu.”
