Transmigrating Into A Female Side Character As A Prodigal Doctor Novel - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Can I Sleep With You

Yan Xi replied reluctantly. “Yes, I’m awake. I’ll come out after dressing up.”

Xiaoyue added. “Dinner is ready downstairs. You can go down to eat after you’re done dressing up.”

“Got it.”

After dawdling for a long time, Yan Xi finally got out of bed. Xiaoyue was still waiting at the door. When she saw her come out, she stole a glance at her.

Yan Xi pretended not to know and walked downstairs calmly.

The dining room was not much different from noon. Gu Shen was seated opposite her and said calmly, “After dinner, the family physical therapist will come and massage you.”

Yan Xi said awkwardly, “Thank you.”

The meal was very peaceful and quiet. Yan Xi had almost forgotten about what happened in lunch, but Gu Er, who was standing at the side, could not help but burst out laughing.

This laugh was so contagious that it made everyone in the room burst out laughing. Suddenly, Yan Xi’s face turned red.

Gu Shen looked at Gu Er unhappily. He coughed to warn him.

“I’m sorry, President. I was just thinking about a kung fu movie I watched this afternoon. The actors are really hilarious.”

“The people who smiled just now, your bonus for this month is canceled.” Gu Shen looked at Yan Xi and the corners of his lips curled up as he saw the gloating smile on her face.

IShe was easy to coax.

Not long after dinner, the family physical therapist was led to Yan Xi’s room by Xiaoyue.

“Madam, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere or sore?”

“My back.” Yesterday at the Gu family’s old mansion, she kept her back straight. Although she was already used to it, she still felt a little sore.

“Okay, let me massage you.” The physical therapist took out an unopened white towel from her bag and placed it on Yan Xi’s back. “Please tell me if I use too much strength.”

“I will.”

The physical therapist was indeed not bad. The strength was just right and it made Yan Xi feel very comfortable. She narrowed her eyes and was about to fall asleep. Seeing that Yan Xi was getting more and more sleepy, she walked out quietly with Xiaoyue.

Xiaoyue closed the door and walked to the stairs before whispering to the physical therapist, “Master was worried that Madam couldn’t fall asleep tonight so he wanted you to give Madam a massage.”

The physical therapist nodded. “Why do I feel that Madam is different from before?”

“There are indeed some changes. Luckily, it’s a change for the better.”

“Did she make things difficult for you guys again lately?”

Xiaoyue thought about it and shook her head. “No. As a matter of fact, now that I think about it, I think Madam actually treats me quite well these days.”

As they were chichatting, Yan Xi sneaked out of her room, holding a pillow.

…

In the study room, Gu Shen was listening to Gu Er’s daily report.

“Gu Si went to investigate Zhou Chuan in the afternoon. His account received a transfer of 30 million yuan three days ago. The transfer was from Lin City. Qi Feng’s secretary went to Lin City for a business trip a week ago and only returned yesterday. Gu Qi brought people to interrogate that secretary and he admitted it.”

“Reason?”

“He said that it’s because you competed with them over a piece of land in the north of the city.”

The land in the northern part of the city was now very popular. The new policy indicated that the government would extend subway lines to that area. Some business office centers would also be moved there. In the future, the price of land in that area would definitely skyrocket as it became a central business district.

In the Land Auction House, one of the most prosperous and largest pieces of land was auctioned for one billion yuan. Gu Shen bought it for seven billion yuan. He didn’t care about the price at that time and didn’t care if anyone was competing with him.

“Even If I die, this land won’t end up in their hands.”

“Qi Feng understood it too. He was just angry and paid Zhou Chuan to kill you.” Gu Er’s tone was mocking. “He is a despicable person.”

“Bring him to see me.”

“Yes.”

After dealing with today’s business, Gu Shen returned to his room. The moment he entered, he saw Yan Xi sitting obediently by the bed, hugging a pillow. When she saw him enter, she said sadly, “Gu Shen, I’m still afraid. Can I sleep with you?”

“No.”

“I’ll sleep on the sofa, not on the bed.” Yan Xi dragged the tone of her voice and acted cutely. “I’ll definitely not disturb you. Unless I sleep here, I can fall asleep. I beg you, Hubby.”

Gu Shen’s attitude softened. In the end, he compromised. “I’ll get someone to bring a make-shift bed over.”

“Thank you, Hubby. Hubby is the best!” Yan Xi hugged the pillow tightly, looking very obedient..
