In the bedroom that was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling, the breathing sounds of Gu Yizhao and Shen Ce were intertwined.

Because the former has been helping with the massage, his breathing is a bit heavy, but the breathing of the latter is as smooth as a machine most of the time, and his body is also very stiff.

Time passed by, until Gu Yizhao's ointment became thinner, and a hard film formed on Shen Ce's skin, he wiped his sweat with his cuff, and stopped action.

"The ointment has almost been absorbed, and then Mr. Shen just needs to wait quietly for half an hour before he can take a bath."

Shen Ce exhaled ambiguously, as if he had received an amnesty: "Doctor Fang, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You're welcome, I still have a lot to learn."

Gu Yizhao said slightly apologetically, "Your spirit cannot be relaxed, which is caused by my immaturity. Next time, I will try to let you take treatment comfortably, which can also speed up the absorption of the medicine."

When Shen Ce heard this, secretly, his blue eyes showed guilt and shame.

"...Actually, it's not your problem, it's just that I'm not used to having such close contact with others. I'm sorry, I will pay attention next time."

He couldn't tell the real reason anyway.

It was precisely because he had skin-to-skin contact with the other party and plucked a string called "desire" in his heart that had been silent for many years, that he tried his best to keep himself calm...but he did not expect this unintentional love... Doing so will make the other party question their own abilities.

Seeing Shen Ce being so polite, Gu Yizhao also smiled immediately.

"Mr. Shen, next time I will try to make it too late for you to think about other things."

While waiting, the two did not speak again.

Gu Yizhao did what he said, and immediately entered the state of study. He found professional books related to the acupuncture points of the human body, and read them quietly and intently, wishing to print every character in his mind.

And Shen Ce seems to be closing his eyes and resting his mind, but in fact he has been reflecting: I am a whole round older than the other party. In other words, when I was 12 years old, the other party was just born... What happened to such a "child" It feels too sinful.

After the short but long half hour ended, Shen Ce lay down in the bathtub with Gu Yizhao's support, let the cool water jet wash over, and washed off the ointment on his face and body.

The effect of the scar removal cream is very good. During the cleaning process, Shen Ce found that a large piece of leather had fallen down together with the hardened scar cream.

After wiping his body clean, with the full-length mirror in the bathroom, Shen Ce found that the scars on his body had visibly faded...

It's not an illusion, his scars have really faded significantly!

Shen Ce couldn't help breathing, his pupils shrank, as if he had witnessed something that was impossible to happen.

Unexpectedly, what the world's top plastic surgery experts could not do, this young doctor actually did it!

Outside the bathroom, Gu Yizhao heard the sound of water stopped for a while, but the other party hadn't come out, so he asked with concern:

"Mr. Shen, do you need help?"

"Wait a minute, I'll be right out."

Shen Ce tried to breathe calmly, so that he would not look so groggy, but the excitement in his eyes could not fade away.

After putting on a bathrobe for himself, he stood up with difficulty while holding the handles, even though his legs still had no feeling, but he didn't want to use the wheelchair right now, but used the strength of his upper body to force his legs to see Able to walk upright normally.

After the bathroom door was pushed open, Gu Yizhao met Shen Ce's eyes for the first time. It was like the blue sea surface illuminated by the scorching sun, reflecting a thrilling brilliance... It was the look of the heavy darkness washed away after the depressing storm .

Infected by this emotion, Gu Yizhao raised a brisk smile.

"Mr. Shen, the effect is very good, congratulations!"

"It's me who wants to thank you..." When his emotions were high, Shen Ce actually forgot the reality that he was not good at acting, and subconsciously stretched out a hand towards Gu Yizhao.

With only one arm unable to support his unconscious legs, his original balance was immediately destroyed, and he was about to fall to the ground...

Unexpectedly, the expected pain did not come, and he fell into a warm and broad embrace.

"Mr. Shen, it's dangerous."

Shen Ce raised his head, and Gu Yizhao just happened to lower his head, their faces were so close that the tips of their noses almost touched.

The atmosphere froze in an instant.

Shen Ce's heart skipped a beat, and he, who used to be rational, couldn't react at this moment.

He just painted Gu Yizhao's eyebrows and outlines with his eyes blankly and profoundly, feeling the breath of the other party, letting the breath of the other party intertwine with his own.

No one has ever been so close to him.

Maybe it was due to the atmosphere, but Gu Yizhao actually forgot to bring the person to the wheelchair, but put his arms around the other person's waist, and saw his appearance through the other person's eyes.

Neither of them spoke again.

until……

"Bang bang bang!"

"Doctor Fang, I heard that my uncle's treatment is over today, so I rushed over here immediately! How is the situation now, can you let me in!?"

The door was knocked hastily, and William Alexander appeared in full swing, burning out the frozen atmosphere of the scene.

"Cough cough..."

Gu Yizhao made a fake cough twice, came to his senses suddenly, and helped Shen Ce to sit on the wheelchair.

"I was just being rude."

Shen Ce didn't dare to look into Gu Yizhao's eyes anymore, stroked his forehead, and after feeling that his face wasn't hot, he said to his nephew outside the door, "Come in."

William Alexander couldn't wait to push open the door, and after seeing the scar on Shen Ce's face that had faded obviously, he exclaimed and hugged Shen Ce, almost kissing and gnawing on him.

"My God! Miracle! Really a miracle!"

In fact, if Shen Ce hadn't been pushing William Alexander's head away with his arms, there would be a lot of saliva on his face.

It's fine when I was a child, but I still do this when I'm an adult... a bit disgusting.

William Alexander didn't feel that he was disgusted by his uncle at all, instead he held Gu Yizhao's hands and thanked him again and again.

"Doctor Fang, I must thank you very much. Inviting you here is really the most correct decision I have ever made in my life! If anyone makes you unhappy in the future, it will be difficult for my Alexander family! By the way, what do you want to eat?" Caviar, truffles or steak? Do you like red wine? I'll open a bottle of 82 Lafite!"

Gu Yizhao, who had been prepared for a long time, couldn't bear that enthusiastic posture.

That night, in order to celebrate Shen Ce's recovery, William Alexander held a small banquet in the manor, opened a lot of expensive wine, treated the servants of the manor to a good drink, and got drunk himself.

Both Gu Yizhao and Shen Ce did not drink alcohol. The former refused to drink too much alcohol in order to maintain energy, and the latter did not drink alcohol during the treatment.

When the others were making noise, the two of them sat under the grape arbor with a book each, but neither of them planned to open it.

The moonlight is also very beautiful tonight.

Shen Ce didn't speak first, Gu Yizhao asked with a smile: "What does Mr. Shen want to do in the future? Do you have any unrealized dreams?"

The word "dream" is very far away from Shen Ce, and he hasn't heard it for more than ten years.

Being asked such a question suddenly, Shen Ce was taken aback for a moment.

Shen's parents died early, and after his sister and brother-in-law passed away, Shen Ce vowed to take good care of his nephew, find out the truth and take revenge for his sister and brother-in-law... Now these dreams have come true.

He has stayed in this manor for more than ten years, and it is more a "compromise" to reality than a "relief".

His appearance was ruined and his legs were disabled. He was only causing trouble to his nephew if he was alive and showing his face outside. It would be better to do nothing and stay peacefully in this manor, enjoying the loneliness and tranquility isolated from the world.

But this does not mean that when hope is in his hands again, he will continue to stay in the isolated manor and do nothing.

But... a dream...

Shen Ce glanced at Gu Yizhao who was next to him, he was so young, and he was in the best time, like the sun in a summer afternoon, full of vigor, and heart-wrenchingly enthusiastic.

And he is no longer a young man who just came out of school. The family power disputes that ordinary people will never encounter in a lifetime have already smoothed his edges and corners.

...He just hopes to have a sound body like a normal person.

Firstly, he lived a carefree life, and secondly, he was already tired of the cold interest disputes between people. After thinking deeply, he found helplessly that he didn't have anything in particular that he wanted to do.

At least professionally.

Shen Ce suddenly felt that he might be old.

In this way, after closing his eyes for a long time, he made a decision.

"Recently, I have some interest in herbal medicine, and I hope to learn from Dr. Fang."

Gu Yizhao: "Huh? That's pretty good, but I'm just a barefoot doctor without any qualifications. I don't know how to play with those high-end precision instruments. Even if Mr. Shen wants to learn, he probably can only learn a limited amount of things."

In modern medicine, Gu Yizhao doesn't know anything about western medicine and surgery, and even the identification of diseases is only superficial, and what he is currently good at is only herbal medicine.

Shen Ce: "I'm just joking. Dr. Fang can solve problems that top experts can't solve, which has already demonstrated his ability. If it's not troublesome, Shen hopes that Dr. Fang can provide one-on-one guidance."

Gu Yizhao nodded in agreement.

"It is said that a long illness makes a doctor. I can understand Mr. Shen's desire to become an expert in herbal medicine."

— Herbalist?

Shen Ce didn't nod or shake his head, but just denied it from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, he didn't want to be an expert.

He just wants to have a confidant by his side, to form a family with him, at least he doesn't have to face the loneliness for the rest of his life.

Although the person in front of him was a round younger than him, which made him feel very guilty, but...

He wanted to verify whether this feeling was rebellious lust or pure liking.
