The lawyer paused for a moment before replying to the message. “Madam… 500,000 yuan is what they are supposed to compensate for according to the law. If it’s 30 million, I’m afraid…”
The rest of the words were self-evident.
After all, Gu Shen was the owner of many companies. If the Yan family was cornered and desperate, they might do something harmful to Gu Shen.The lawyer would be in deep water.
After Yan Xi finished reading it, she replied, “That group of leeches, they only take but never give. If I don’t give them a lesson this time, they won’t learn.”
Moreover, she wanted to cut ties with the Yan family completely. If she didn’t make things too hard for them, they might still have some hopes.
Yan Xi then sent another message. “Just raise the compensation. If anything happens, my husband will handle it.”
Since Gu Shen decided to introduce his lawyer to her, it meant that he would support her.
After all, Yan Dong had taken a lot of money and projects from him over the years. To Gu Shen, who was known to be ruthless, hiring a lawyer was already the gentlest method.
Without waiting for the lawyer to reply, Yan Xi threw her phone away and continued reading the medical book.
Halfway through, she suddenly jumped up and ran to the cabinet to take out her acupuncture kit.
Inside were rows of silver needles that shone under the dark yellow light.
…
Late at night, Gu Shen woke up.
Recalling how Yan Xi fell asleep in the study room last night, he felt slightly worried.
He thought for a moment before getting himself into the wheelchair and slided out of the room.
Yan Xi’s bedroom was not far from his room. On his way to the study room, he saw that the lights in her bedroom were still lit.
Leaning against the door, Gu Shen heard moans and suppressed cries coming from inside.
His heart skipped a beat, and he tightened his grip on the armrests. However, through the crack in the door, he saw Yan Xi sitting at the table with her back facing him.
“Why are you still up?” A cold voice was heard.
In an instant, Yan Xi felt her heart skip a beat. She quickly stuffed the thing in her hand into the drawer and looked back.
Looking closely, Gu Shen could see the ends of her eyes were red, clearly because of the crying just now.
Gu Shen frowned. “What are you doing?”
“I… I saw a very touching video on my phone just now and couldn’t help but cry.” Yan Xi made up something. She immediately waved the phone in front of him, then changed the topic. “What about you? Why are you staying up so late?”
Gu Shen stared at her for a few seconds and did not continue asking.
He shook his head. “Nothing.”
Then, he turned and left.
The moment the door closed, Yan Xi heaved a sigh of relief.
She placed the set of acupuncture tools on the table again, sat down, took out another needle, and quickly stabbed at an acupuncture point on her leg.
Instantly, she grimaced in pain.
Back then, she learned an acupuncture technique from Zheng Ming. She planned to start his treatment from this technique.
Because the nerve in Gu Shen’s leg was extremely difficult to recover, ordinary acupuncture points wouldn’t work. So she was testing with her body to find an even stronger acupuncture point.
Yan Xi looked down at the acupuncture points she just tested.
Ignoring the cold sweat on her forehead, she quickly noted down the names of a few acupuncture points on the treatment plan and heaved a sigh of relief.
She would know if it was useful after testing.
The effect of the test was also very obvious. The next day, Yan Xi’s legs went numb and she fell out of bed while trying to stand up. Her beautiful face was twisted by pain.
“Madam, what’s wrong?” Xiaoyue heard the noise and asked from outside.
“Hurry! Come and help me!” Yan Xi realized that her legs had no strength at all. With Xiaoyue’s help, she got back to the bed.
“Madam?” Xiaoyue was puzzled. “Did you go for a marathon last night?”
Yan Xi waved her hand, hinting at her to leave. “It’s fine. I guess I just slept too much.”
Xiaoyue was still enthusiastic. “Should I call the therapist over?”
“No need!” Yan Xi did not want others to see the big and small bruises on her legs.. As the acupuncture points she tested last night didn’t work, she decided to try a few acupuncture points tonight.
