Chapter 279 Tipping off Qin Yeting
Xia Yue looked closely at the man's face and realized that she had seen him before.
He was one of her former patients.
Three years ago, when her medical skills were just beginning to gain some recognition, someone asked her to treat their leg.
After examining the other person, she found that the leg injury had been going on for too long and the muscles and nerves had completely died. She was unable to treat the injury with the skills she had at the time, so she refused and never contacted the other person again.
I never expected to meet you here today.
"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Gu Mo, and I am Gu Chen's older brother," the man in the wheelchair said with a faint smile.
"Hello, Mr. Gu." Xia Yue responded politely, her eyes subconsciously glancing at the legs of the man sitting in his wheelchair.
She couldn't treat it back then, but now her medical skills have improved considerably, and she's even learned an even more powerful acupuncture technique, so perhaps she can give it a try.
Gu Mo noticed Xia Yue's gaze; it was the gaze of a doctor looking at a patient.
There was no discrimination, only sincerity, and a touch of seriousness.
This was completely different from the usual way people would attack him outwardly out of fear of his status, but then turn around and mock him.
"Dr. X, the way you look at me makes me think there's still hope for my leg." Gu Mo's tone was relaxed, but his eyes held a hint of caution.
Xia Yue had no interest in banquets, but she was always enthusiastic about healing the sick and saving lives.
She took two steps closer and continued to observe, saying, "I've learned a new acupuncture technique; it might be useful."
"Really?!" Gu Mo's eyes lit up instantly, but quickly dimmed again.
He consulted many doctors, both domestic and foreign, both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and without exception, they all said it was useless.
Even the legendary Dr. X said he was powerless to help.
But now, Xia Yue said she could give it a try, and Gu Mo was excited, but dared not hold out any hope.
He was afraid of being disappointed again.
“Let’s schedule a time, and I’ll check you out another day,” Xia Yue said loudly.
Gu Mo was a little impatient and couldn't help but ask, "Can we do it now? I want to know the result as soon as possible, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Looking at Gu Mo's pleading eyes, Xia Yue finally said reluctantly, "Alright, but there are too many people here, it's best to go somewhere else."
"No problem! I'll have my assistant arrange a lounge right away!" Gu Mo replied excitedly, a smile of excitement spreading across his face.
Xia Yue agreed without much thought.
Anyway, the checkup won't take much time.
However, she had to tell Gu Chen first, lest he overthink things if he couldn't find her later.
Xia Yue glanced around the scene but didn't see Gu Chen.
There were too many people at the scene, and Gu Chen was surrounded by all sorts of people, so she couldn't find him anywhere.
Never mind, it should be nothing serious. She'll be back soon anyway.
Xia Yue followed Gu Mo to the lounge.
With the help of his assistant, Gu Mo took off his pants, lay on the bed, and nervously looked at Xia Yue.
The assistant went outside to keep watch and prevent anyone from barging in.
Xia Yue didn't waste any time with unnecessary words and started the inspection directly.
Gu Mo's leg is in worse condition than it was three years ago. Although Gu Mo has been trying to do rehabilitation, it has all been ineffective.
Xia Yue didn't bring her gold needles tonight, so she couldn't use them to probe the other person's legs. She could only bend down slightly and examine them by pressing with her fingers.
The two were very close together.
Gu Mo smelled the faint medicinal fragrance on Xia Yue's body, exactly the same as it had been three years ago.
It smells so much better than the industrial perfume that most women wear.
Gu Mo's fingers tightened slightly.
The woman's delicate, fair face was magnified before his eyes.
He was slightly tempted, but what he cared about more was that the other person could heal his leg.
After a few minutes of examination, Xia Yue stood up, frowned slightly, stared at Gu Mo's leg, and did not speak immediately.
Gu Mo was somewhat disappointed. He felt that it was the same result as before, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
"So... it's the same old story again, isn't it?" Gu Mo closed his eyes, having given up all hope.
"That's not necessarily true," Xia Yue replied calmly.
Gu Mo opened his eyes instantly, looking at Xia Yue cautiously, "You mean there's still hope?"
"I'm not very confident, because most of the muscle is already necrotic, the recovery period is long, at least a year, and..."
"No! No! As long as there's hope, that's enough! As long as there's hope, that's enough!" Gu Mo excitedly sat up in bed and gripped Xia Yue's hand tightly!
"Dr. X, please, you must save me! I'll do anything for you!" Gu Mo kept expressing his heartfelt plea.
Xia Yue quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, I will do my best."
Gu Mo was finally relieved to hear this answer.
But he continued to probe, "Actually, my relationship with my second brother isn't good. You're his girlfriend; if he doesn't let you treat him..."
“Saving lives is a doctor’s duty, and Gu Chen has no reason to object,” Xia Yue replied firmly.
Gu Mo laughed and said, "You don't know my second brother. He's not as upright as Young Master Qin. Oh, sorry, Doctor X and Young Master Qin are a thing of the past. I was just mentioning it casually."
"It doesn't matter."
Although Qin Yeting was her ex-husband, Xia Yue showed no emotion when others mentioned him.
That's why Gu Mo became even more curious.
He was someone who knew about the relationship between Qin Yeting and Xia Yue, and Qin Yeting was better than Gu Chen in most aspects.
Why would Doctor X abandon Qin Yeting and choose Gu Chen instead?
Could it be that Gu Chen used some despicable means?
The more Gu Mo thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
Then he needs to figure it out even more.
