Chapter 37
“Would you come in and take a seat? We need to talk.” Closing the file, his gentle tone was like a spring breeze, softening one’s heart.
“From the moment I took over from my teacher, he instructed me to pay special attention to you. A beautiful lady like you does deserve special attention. Don’t make me let my teacher down.” Seeing that she was still hesitant, he threw out a trustworthy identity in a joking manner.
“You are Uncle Carl’s student?” The senior who had helped her in college was actually an apprentice of her former doctor? What a small world.
“The appointment time will come to an end soon if you don’t come in.” Gu Xingyun pointed at the wall clock.
Tang Xin took a deep breath, chose to believe him in the end, and laid back on the chair.
“Have some water and relax yourself first. Can we continue?” Gu Xingyun sat at his desk and asked gently as he flipped through the files.
Tang Xin nodded, took the glass of water next to her and took a sip, and quietly looked at Gu Xingyun through the edge of the glass.
2He had good-looking eyes and a natural elegant disposition. Together with his handsome facial features, he perfectly fitted the description of the kind of gentleman described in books.
She had never thought that she would become his patient one day. The last thing she wanted was for people who knew her to see her here.
In the past, everyone on campus had ridiculed her as being mentally ill, and he had been the only one who was kind and friendly towards her.
During that period, he had been the only one who had made her feel that she was being respected.
Had he really forgotten her? Otherwise, wasn’t it dangerous for her to take chances sitting here?
“I think we can start,” Gu Xingyun saw her subconsciously grab her bag again. He closed the file, stood up and walked towards her.
Tang Xin diffidently withdrew her hand, and had no choice but to lie down obediently.
“Good girl,” Gu Xingyun pulled a chair with casters to sit next to her, picked up the record file, and started testing. “Now, slowly close your eyes and relax…”
After fifteen minutes, the test was over, but the person on the recliner chair did not open her eyes, and there was a faint sound of breathing that indicated she was asleep.
Gu Xingyun smiled and did not wake her up. He closed the file, stretched out his hand and rubbed her softly between her eyebrows, and whispered softly, “Have a good sleep, a dream is the most beautiful fairy tale.”
Looking at the dark circles under her eyes, he knew that she hadn’t slept well for a long time.
Back at the desk, he pressed the assistant phone line and said in a low voice, “Miss Li, help me cancel all the appointments in the afternoon… um, I have something on, thank you.”
In the spotless consultation room, there was only the sound of flipping pages and the occasional typing noise from the keyboard. The girl on the recliner was in a deep sleep, looking as though she might continue sleeping this way and never wake up…
It was already sunset when Tang Xin woke up. She hadn’t slept so well in a long time.
Sitting up slowly, she saw a blazer over her and got a shock. She frantically tried to look for the owner of the blazer in the spotless clinic.
“You’re awake?”
She heard his pleasant voice at the same time as when she saw him, and her eyes met with his, which were filled with kindness
“Your blazer, thank you,” she got up, adjusted the hem of her dress, and returned the blazer to him. She looked around and felt very bad. “You should have woken me up, this will disturb your work.”
Was she really in such a deep sleep that she hadn’t even heard him give consultations to other patients?
