After leaving the hotel, Gu Ze had already lost consciousness due to the pain in his legs. He just subconsciously grabbed Xu Nuo. He felt at ease only when she was by his side.
But when the bright surgical light above his head shone down and he regained consciousness, he reached out and covered Xu Nuo's eyes.
“Don’t look…”
No one knew the condition of the wound better than himself, and he didn't want to scare her.
"No, Gu Ze, I'm not afraid now that I'm here. Do you think it will scare me? No, I'll just be angry! Angry that you don't take care of yourself. Is this your leg or my leg?!"
"When Gu Shuyan bumped into you, didn't you push him away? Don't tell me you didn't have that much strength. Are you trying to save face for him, or don't you care about me? Didn't I tell you to take care of your injuries when you attended this banquet before you left?"
"Look now, all my efforts in taking care of you for seven days were ruined by Gu Shuyan's collision. You liar, you only make me angry!"
Xu Nuo scolded Gu Ze so much that both Gu Ze and Xu Chenglin beside him were stunned.
"I……"
Gu Ze wanted to speak, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his leg. He turned around and saw Xu Chenglin already performing the operation with a scalpel.
His eyes went dark and he used his last bit of sanity to try to let go of Xu Nuo's hand and clutched the sheets beneath him, but he couldn't break free.
Seeing that Xu Chenglin had already started to take action, Xu Nuo shut his mouth, but his actions showed: "Don't even think about leaving me behind again."
Gu Ze wanted to speak, but the wound on his leg was so painful that he couldn't open his mouth at all.
Xu Nuo looked uncomfortable and could only hold his hand and wipe the sweat from his forehead with a towel.
Gu Ze almost fainted, but he managed to hold on with the help of Xu Nuo holding his hand.
"I...I remember you said before that when I get better...we...uh...ah!"
Xu Chenglin flipped the scalpel and Gu Ze cried out in pain.
"Hold him down, don't let him move!"
Xu Chenglin did not give Gu Ze anesthesia. His leg was very fragile now. If he used anesthesia, he was afraid that even if the operation was successful, his calf would become numb.
So after weighing the pros and cons, I decided not to use anesthetics.
When Xu Nuo heard what Xu Chenglin said, he quickly stretched out his hands and held him down.
But Gu Ze was too strong, and especially because of the severe pain he was in, he had lost his mind. There was no other way, Xu Nuo could only use all his strength to hold him down.
"I remember you said before that after this is over... you will... you will accompany me to watch the sunrise, right?"
Gu Ze’s vision was already blurry and he couldn’t see Xu Nuo’s face clearly, so he wanted to hear her voice.
But Xu Nuo was afraid that his voice would disturb Xu Chenglin, so he lowered his head and walked towards Gu Zeyin.

In the end, Gu Ze held on with his own perseverance and saved his right leg, so he wouldn't have to rely on a wheelchair for the rest of his life. However, he completely fainted after the operation failed.
Seeing Gu Ze being pushed to the ward by the nurse, Xu Chenglin took off his mask and glanced at his sister who was a little embarrassed to be alone next to him.
"I will pretend that I didn't see anything that happened just now."
Xu Nuo didn't say anything, feeling a little embarrassed.
"In fact, I admire Gu Ze very much. It is indeed my selfish reason not to give him anesthesia. I don't want you to be with someone who can't take care of himself in the future."
"In fact, the success of this operation is the result of your two people's efforts. It has nothing to do with me..."
