Chapter 839 - Who Was the Sinister One who had Pushed Her in the First Place?
Ye Yuwei was perplexed. Her sixth sense suggested that this man had something on his mind but she couldn’t make Gu Juexi talk.
“Gu Juexi, the late Auntie Mao used to say, no matter what, we cannot expect others guess because we cannot read each other’s mind. So I hope that if there’s anything bothering you, or if you have any problems, you know you can tell me,” Ye Yuwei said and pushed herself out of his embrace, looking at him intensely.
Gu Juexi looked into Ye Yuwei’s earnest eyes and raised his hand to touch her face. “What have you been thinking of? What’s the big deal, you are by my side all the time, there’s no way I can lie to you. Let’s go to Master Yao Lao.”
Ye Yuwei was pushed lightly by Gu Juexi. She stumbled a step but was quickly pulled into Gu Juexi’s embrace. “See, you can’t even walk properly. What would you do without me?”
Ye Yuwei was furious.
Who was the sinister one who had pushed her in the first place?
Master Yao Lao had finished seeing her last patient when both of them arrived.
“Master,” Ye Yuwei was the first to greet her.
Master Yao Lao didn’t tidy her messy desk and gestured for Gu Juexi to sit. “I saw both of you just now but you were gone in the blink of an eye.”
“You were busy so we went to visit the old soldier,” Ye Yuwei explained, “How have you been?”
“I’m good. I’m grateful that you opened this clinic for me, at least there is one place that I can focus on,” Master Yao Lao said while taking Gu Juexi’s pulse, “How did you injure yourself so badly? You only have one life. If you don’t take care of it, who will?”
“This is the last time, it won’t happen again.” It was rare to see Gu Juexi being so docile, perhaps it was because the scolding was from his comrade’s mother.
Master Yao Lao lowered her head to start writing the prescription after taking Gu Juexi’s pulse.
Gu Juexi was staring when Ye Yuwei pressed his shoulder with both her hands. “Master, he never stops. See if you can give me anything that can make him stop for a while?”
“Euthanasia would be a good idea.” Gu Juexi turned around to glare at her and she smacked him on his shoulder.
“That’s quite expensive, it’s better if I hit the streets to buy you rat poison,” Ye Yuwei chuckled. She looked at Master who was writing the prescription. “Western medicine has a lot of side effects. Haven’t you always said that it will affect the nerves?”
“That doesn’t mean I want to take Chinese medicine!” Gu Juexi yelled. Imagining the obscure taste and smell of Chinese medicine, Gu Juexi felt that this was the end of his life.
Ye Yuwei lowered her head and looked at Gu Juexi with a mysterious smile on her face. “You have no right to speak so can you keep your mouth shut, please?”
“Ye Yuwei, what did you say?”
“Master, his ears have a problem too, see if you can prescribe something for his hearing,” Ye Yuwei said with a mischievous smile.
“Can both of you stop, please? I am too old to see this affectionate love show.” Master Yao Lao rolled her eyes at them and handed the prescription list to Ye Yuwei. “Turn right at the door, there’s a Chinese medicine pharmacy 200 meters away. You go and get the medicine.”
Ye Yuwei quickly collected it, turned around and went out the door.
Master Yao Lao waited until Ye Yuwei had gone out that she finally said, “You can’t keep on doing this to your body. You are not made of iron nor are you a deity. It’s not just the superficial injuries but none of your internal organs are in ideal condition.”
Gu Juexi slowly lowered his head and looked down. There was one last thing that he hadn’t resolved, how could he go now?
“When He Liao was alive, he would always mention you whenever he contacted me. I know you, boy. The girl might not see it but I do, and I can see very clearly. If you continue doing this to your body, you will be giving He Liao company soon,” Master Yao Lao warned him, and started to tidy up her desk.
