Chapter 258

Gu Hanyuan let out a long breath and withdrew his hand.

"I have fulfilled my duty. Wushuang, you will be fully recovered after resting well for another period of time. However, before you are fully recovered, you must be careful not to get out of bed prematurely to avoid the broken bone healing crookedly again."

Only after hearing Gu Hanyuan's words did the two women realize that the treatment had been completed.

Except for that initial part used to divert attention.

The entire medical process had been even smoother than imagined.

"Thank you, Brother Gu."

Hearing that her leg would be fully recovered after resting well.

Tears welled up in the corners of Lu Wushuang's eyes.

Only she herself knew how much grievance and inferiority she had suffered because of her limp.

Every time she was looked at with strange eyes, she could only use sharpness and reclusiveness as her protective umbrella.

Gu Hanyuan smiled at Lu Wushuang with a hint of deep meaning:

"Wushuang, no need to thank me; you have already given the reward."

As soon as Lu Wushuang heard what Gu Hanyuan said, she knew what he was referring to.

She was instantly infinitely shy.

Cheng Ying heard the conversation between the two.

She felt curious about the so-called reward.

But seeing their vague manner, she knew it was not the right time to ask.

"Gu Shaoxia..."

"Still calling me Gu Shaoxia?"

Gu Hanyuan's eyes were full of teasing.

Cheng Ying was teased by Gu Hanyuan's counter-question, her jade face flushing with shame.

She stammered:

"Brother Gu."

"Mm, Sister Cheng Ying."

Gu Hanyuan revealed a satisfied smile.

It was the first time Cheng Ying had been addressed this way, and her heart trembled.

She even forgot what she had wanted to ask earlier.

"Sister Cheng Ying, Wushuang has a rash temperament. You must keep a close eye on her. Don't let her get out of bed in a hurry."

Gu Hanyuan saw Cheng Ying obediently agree.

He smiled gently at the two women.

"Then I will leave first. You two rest well."

After Gu Hanyuan left.

The atmosphere between the two women suddenly became awkward.

Especially Cheng Ying, who only focused on lowering her head to wash the towel in her hand.

It was Lu Wushuang who first broke the silence:

"Cousin. I don't mind."

Seeing Cheng Ying look up in surprise, she continued:

"Cousin, do you like Brother Gu?"

"I don't know."

Cheng Ying had not yet been able to sort out her own feelings.

But Lu Wushuang did not let her off.

"Then how did it feel just now?"

Cheng Ying's face flushed red from Lu Wushuang's question.

Out of a guilty conscience, she turned to ask:

"What was the reward Brother Gu mentioned?"

Sure enough, Lu Wushuang was caught off guard by Cheng Ying's counter-question.

After hesitating for a moment, she still blushed and said honestly:

"It was just like what Brother Gu did to Cousin just now."

"Doesn't that mean..."

Cheng Ying was also stunned by Gu Hanyuan's operation.

The two women looked at the shy blushes on each other's faces.

They fell silent again for a while.

Gu Hanyuan did not pay attention to how the two women would communicate afterward.

After returning to his room, he waited quietly.

Approaching the Hour of the Rat.

A slight sound of footsteps came from outside the room.

Gu Hanyuan smiled playfully.

Although the person outside the door hesitated for a while.

They still knocked on the door.

After Gu Hanyuan opened the door.

Sure enough, it was Cheng Yaojia, her face flushed red.

She saw that her skin was white with a hint of red, and steam could faintly be seen on her hair.

Clearly, she had just bathed.

The already charming Cheng Yaojia added a few more points of color at this moment.

Cheng Yaojia had a graceful figure, a slender waist that could be held in one hand, and stood there timidly.

"Madam, you are here."

Gu Hanyuan let Cheng Yaojia into the room.

Cheng Yaojia nervously twisted her sleeves.

Especially when Gu Hanyuan closed the door, her heart trembled even more.

Seeing her nervousness, Gu Hanyuan spoke slowly:

"Madam, the physician's diagnosis is out, right?"

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Hanyuan said this.

Cheng Yaojia didn't even have the composure to be nervous.

Her complexion even turned pale.

Tears flashed faintly.

Not only because she was worried for Lu Guanying after confirming his injuries.

But also because Lu Guanying had hurt Cheng Yaojia's heart after learning he could no longer perform his duties.

It turned out that after the physician diagnosed Lu Guanying.

Although he had reservations, he finally told him the truth.

And Lu Guanying was struck by lightning after suddenly hearing about his condition.

He didn't even know when Cheng Yaojia had sent the physician out the door.

When Cheng Yaojia, worried about him, stepped forward to comfort him.

He flew into a rage.

"I am already a useless person! Why do you still care about me!"

Lu Guanying still had some sanity left.

He didn't shout too loudly, as he was also afraid of letting everyone know.

"Guanying, perhaps there are other ways?"

Cheng Yaojia tried to persuade him.

"What other ways could there be?"

Lu Guanying's eyes lit up first, then he became dejected again. ===== CHAPTER 260 =====
