Chapter 162: Why Are You So Good?

Yan Xi admitted frankly.

“When I was in university, my major was literature. However, before I graduated, I dropped out of school because of some matters. No one in my life has taught me medical knowledge.”

Zhou Xu widened his eyes in disbelief. “Then how…”

“Self-study!”

This was impossible!

The interns admitted by the hospital had to go through at least five years of school, and some attending physicians had to go through more years of training.

Yan Xi’s ability had already surpassed many attending physicians. This was not something that could be achieved by self-studying.

“There will always be a few geniuses in this world.” Yan Xi smiled proudly.

“However, if you don’t believe me, Gu Shen will naturally not believe me either. That will cause the marriage to break up. Doctor Zhou, you don’t want to see us end up like that, right?”

Zhou Xu felt that something was wrong, but he did not want to ruin someone else’s marriage, so he nodded in agreement. “I’ll help you keep this secret.”

“Thank you, Doctor Zhou.” Yan Xi nodded at him and stood up. “Gu Shen should be waking up soon. I’ll go back to the ward to take a look.”

“You’re welcome. I’m also very grateful for showing understanding towards us.”

…

When Yan Xi returned to the ward, Gu Shen woke up.

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Yan Xi, who was frowning slightly with worry.

“Yan Xi…”

His voice was very soft, but Yan Xi heard it and immediately walked over. “I’m here. How do you feel? Do you want some water?”

“I’m fine.” Gu Shen’s face and lips were pale, and he looked especially weak.

Yan Xi poured a glass of warm water and brought it to his mouth. The water gave his lips some color, making him look better.

The treatment Gu Shen was going through was the first of its kind, so every step, if done wrong, could be fatal.

If they wanted to continue down the path, both of them had to endure a lot of stress.

“You fainted this time because you were allergic to the drug.” Yan Xi explained in a gentle voice. “This drug was imported from overseas. There were insufficient samples of clinical trials in the country, so it went wrong this time.”

“I know, you don’t have to worry too much.” To comfort her, Gu Shen said, “I’ve had allergic reactions to drugs before, so I’m used to it.”

He had even survived many more dangerous situations than allergies.

“This won’t happen again.”

Yan Xi didn’t want to see him say he was used to it. It was more like he was numb to pain.

“That’s not your fault.” Gu Shen chuckled and held Yan Xi’s hand. “Don’t blame yourself.”

Yan Xi held his hand and said in a muffled voice, “I hope you won’t be disappointed in Zhou Xu and the others.”

“No, I won’t.”

Gu Shen would not deny the ability of these medical staff just because of one mistake.

“Get Gu Qi to prepare some pastries or flowers for the medical staff and thank them for taking care of me during this period of time.”

Yan Xi nodded and agreed. “I’ll tell him now.” She looked around and saw that the doctors and nurses were not here yet, so she leaned over and gave his lips a kiss.”

“Gu Shen, why are you so good?”

Someone knocked on the door. Yan Xi immediately sat up straight.

Zhou Xu walked in with the medical record book and roughly explained the situation.

“We’ve given you cardiac resuscitation and artificial respiration. The allergy might relapse again, so we need you to stay in the hospital for observation. Don’t worry, we won’t charge you any hospitalization fees.”

Gu Shen’s expression was calm, but when he heard the artificial respiration, he raised his eyebrows.

“Artificial respiration?”

“It was an emergency.” Yan Xi touched her nose and felt a little guilty. “So, Doctor Zhou did artificial respiration for you.”

Zhou Xu was struck dumb.

Gu Shen also looked confused. His expression darkened and he immediately went to get the glass of water beside him.

Zhou Xu had a complicated expression on his face. He wanted to explain, but he remembered that he had said earlier that he would help Yan Xi keep her secret, so, he didn’t deny it.
