"You mean I can be cured and there won't be any accidents, right?" Li Xiuxiu's expression was full of joy, her previous worried look completely gone.

Bruno smiled and nodded, "Yes, I will definitely cure you, don't worry!"

Syphilis is terrifying to ordinary people, but to him it was just a tiny virus and not scary at all.

Li Xiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, her tense nerves relaxing instantly.

"Xiuxiu, why did you have someone pretend to be your fiancé? If you could find someone else, why not me?" Bruno was still resentful; he felt he was more suitable than that young boy.

Li Xiuxiu blushed, unable to look Bruno in the deep affection in her eyes. She lowered her head shyly and stammered, "I...I have this disease, and I thought you would despise me..."

“How could that be? It’s just a common infectious disease, and it’s curable. Why do you think like that? I’m a doctor, Xiuxiu. I won’t discriminate against anyone because of illness, especially you.” Bruno couldn’t understand Li Xiuxiu’s thoughts. Being sick is not something that can be controlled subjectively. Patients suffer more than anyone else. If outsiders discriminate against them because of this, it will seriously damage their mental health.

A doctor should be tolerant of all his patients; this is the most basic professional ethic for a doctor.

Besides, Li Xiuxiu is the woman he deeply loves. How could he possibly discriminate against her just because she is sick?

Bruno's expression was serious, and his tone was heavy. "Xiuxiu, I'm very unhappy that you think like that. You shouldn't think like that."

Li Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment. Under Bruno's serious and sincere gaze, she felt inexplicably guilty and ashamed. She couldn't help but apologize, "I'm sorry... it's my fault, please don't be angry."

"Of course I'm not angry, Xiuxiu. Please let me take care of you. If you need a fiancé, please consider me. Although I'm a bit older, I'm really healthy and much stronger than the one you found."

Bruno gestured with his arms, wanting Li Xiuxiu to see his strong muscles. His bulging tendons stretched his slightly loose sleeves, making them look bulging and full of masculinity. Li Xiuxiu blushed immediately, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

“I paid him to accompany me back to my hometown.”

“I can accompany you back to your hometown, and it won’t cost you anything,” Bruno volunteered.

Li Xiuxiu hesitated. She had no qualms about asking the security guard, Xiao Li, for help, but she was still worried about having Bruno come back with her. The villagers were saying very unpleasant things, and she was afraid Bruno wouldn't be able to handle it.

"Don't worry, he can barely understand Mandarin, how could he possibly understand your hometown dialect? He's already actively promoting himself, I think you should just go for it!" Ye Qingqing saw through Li Xiuxiu's thoughts at a glance and teased her on purpose.

Li Xiuxiu blushed even more, glanced shyly at Bruno, nodded slightly, and finally relented.

This also means that she accepted Bruno's advances.

Ye Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. She had helped another couple get together. The God of Love should really pay her a salary. She hadn't been idle since she came back. She was busy treating patients and acting as a matchmaker, and her success rate was high. Every couple she helped became a couple. Now, she had helped three couples get together.

Since Bruno was going back with her, security guard Xiao Li didn't need to go back. Li Xiuxiu felt bad and didn't want the 500 yuan deposit. Security guard Xiao Li was also very happy. 500 yuan was equivalent to his monthly salary. He hadn't done anything and earned 500 yuan for free. He would save up some more later to buy his wife a gold chain.

The next day, Ye Qingqing, Bruno, and Li Xiuxiu embarked on their journey back to her hometown.
