The two of them were so absorbed in making the medicine that they didn't notice the passage of time at all, until it got dark outside and they couldn't see clearly.
Ye Qingtao raised her head and glanced towards the power switch.
Gu Xiu'an reacted instantly and immediately helped her turn on the light.
Ye Qingtao continued to make medicine under the light, while Gu Xiu'an stood beside her and watched with great interest.
It was not until Gu Jingming came back that the two of them suddenly realized how late it was.
Ye Qingtao raised her head and smiled embarrassedly, and was about to get up to cook.
Gu Jingming held her shoulders, then took off his coat and put it on the sofa.
"You sit down and let me do the cooking."
Gu Jingming has always been very supportive of Ye Qingtao's work.
After all, his life was saved by his wife.
If my wife wasn't so obsessed with medicine, she probably wouldn't have such good medical skills, let alone help him treat it.
Given his condition at the time, if he had not received timely treatment, he would have died long ago.
Besides, my wife was delayed in cooking because of making medicine, not because she was unwilling to cook.
When his wife saw him coming back, she stood up, which shows that she cares about him.
Gu Jingming thought happily and went to cook obediently.
While someone was cooking at home, Ye Qingtao continued with his previous research.
The prescription was formulated just at the critical moment, and she actually didn't want to stop at all.
While Ye Qingtao was calculating, she couldn't help but say a few words to Gu Xiu'an.
"You see, the calculation of this ratio needs to be very precise, which is a great test of people's calculation and learning abilities."
"If you can't speak, your academic performance will be poor in the future. Even if you become my disciple, you can only learn the basics."
"But if you learn to speak and study hard in the future, you will most likely become a doctor as good as me."
Ye Qingtao first criticized Gu Xiu'an, and then began to praise him.
"I think you are quite smart, have a strong learning ability, and are very interested in pharmaceutical manufacturing."
"If you can make up for your shortcomings, your future will definitely be limitless."
Ye Qingtao gave Gu Xiu'an a sweet date in return for a slap in the face, and Gu Xiu'an was tormented by her.
His determination to speak was stronger than before.
When Ye Qingtao saw his mouth open, she guessed what he was thinking.
Under her stimulation, Gu Xiu'an's desire to speak now reached its strongest point.
Gu Jingming prepared the food and invited them to come and eat.
Ye Qingtao held Gu Xiu'an's hand and urged him to eat quickly.
Gu Xiu'an washed his hands, took two bowls of rice and sat down at the table obediently.
Gu Jingming set the table and called Ye Qingtao to eat with a smile.
Ye Qingtao always felt that Gu Jingming was a little too enthusiastic towards her today.
After dinner, Gu Jingming quickly cleaned up the dishes and really didn't let her do anything.
"Gu Jingming, why are you so attentive today? Why is your smile so bright?"
"I always feel like you're hiding something from me. Can you please tell me for the sake of our relationship?"
Ye Qingtao teased him deliberately, and the smile on Gu Jingming's face became brighter.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised. It seemed that she clearly had a strong desire to talk, but in the end, he really held back and didn't say a word.
Ye Qingtao asked a few questions but got no results, and immediately lost interest.
"When you want to talk, you can come to me, but I may not want to listen by then!"
Ye Qingtao hummed softly and went back to her room to rest.
She lay on the bed with her hands behind her head, looking extremely relaxed.
But my mind was still thinking about the problems I encountered in the process of making the medicine.
I always feel like something is wrong, as if there is something that can be adjusted.
There were always flashes of inspiration in her mind, but she never caught them.
Ye Qingtao kept thinking and overturning.
In fact, there are no real geniuses in their profession.
It's just that I can endure more hardships and think better than others.
Ye Qingtao was lying on the bed, thinking so deeply that she didn't even notice when Gu Jingming came in after finishing his work.
It wasn't until the bed beside her collapsed and she was embraced in a warm embrace that she suddenly reacted.
"Gu Jingming, you finished cleaning up so quickly?"
"Have you taken a shower? Have you washed your hair? Do you smell bad? Let me smell it."
Ye Qingtao teased him deliberately, but Gu Jingming suddenly pulled her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her hard on the lips.
"Well, my wife's mouth smells really good. I just like the smell on you."
"Do I have any scent? Why can't I smell anything at all?"
Ye Qingtao sniffed herself in confusion, and Gu Jingming hugged her and laughed.
"You can't smell your own scent, but I can."
Gu Jingming let her lean on his shoulder, then lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead.
"Wife, I have something good to tell you."
Gu Jingming blew a breath into Ye Qingtao's ear, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised as he spoke. Everyone could see that he was very happy at the moment.
"But I don't want to hear it anymore!"
Ye Qingtao snorted softly to deliberately make things difficult for him.
"You have to listen. You must listen. If you don't listen, you will definitely regret it."
Gu Jingming hugged her and coaxed her gently, and Ye Qingtao decided to give him a chance to speak.
"Then hurry up and tell me. If you keep dragging your feet, I really won't listen."
"Wife, I'm telling you, you're famous!"
Gu Jingming's voice was trembling when he spoke, and Ye Qingtao didn't quite understand what he said.
She hasn't been treating people in the army recently, so how come she suddenly became famous?
"What do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly?"
"Yes, a few days ago, the superior leader came to inspect the troops and happened to ask about the last mission."
"Which mission?"
Gu Jingming often went on missions with soldiers from the army, and Ye Qingtao sometimes had no idea which one he was referring to.
"It was the last time we encountered terrorists. Many soldiers were shot and sent back."
After Gu Jingming said this, Ye Qingtao remembered it.
"What happened that time? Compared to usual, there were indeed many patients, and it was a bit difficult to take care of them."
Ye Qingtao took the initiative to talk about her feelings, and Gu Jingming lowered his head and said something in her ear.
"Thank you for your hard work, my wife. If it weren't for you, I don't know how many people would have died in the last incident."
"As the head of the troops and the commander of that mission, I cannot escape blame for this matter."
"If you hadn't saved everyone, I would have been caught in it too."
"Don't even think about being the head of a military unit. He would have been fired long ago."
When Gu Jingming said this, his smile became a little bitter, and he soon realized that he had gone off topic.
"The last incident attracted the attention of our superiors. The bone-strengthening powder and bleeding-stopping powder you invented also attracted their attention. It is said that in a few days, a special person from the army will come to personally verify the efficacy of these two drugs!"
