Chapter 51: Only She Alone Can
"Even if you come to me, it’s useless. My student’s surgery schedule is lined up for the next three years. It depends on whether this young lady can wait."
She had no intention of giving them any special treatment either.
Besides, seeing their demeanor, Teacher Shen found it somewhat strange.
She simply decided not to say anything further, waiting to see if they could secure an appointment on their own merits.
Gu Qixiao felt a headache coming on. Knowing Ji Yu’s temperament, he simply took Song Xuan and left straight away.
Once outside, Song Xuan, exhausted from crying, looked pitifully at Gu Qixiao. "Xiao... do you despise me as well now? I knew it; I’ll never be able to return to normal in this lifetime."
Her bitter smile looked as though she was on the brink of collapse.
"Xiao, even if I stay like this forever, would you still marry me?"
The veins on Gu Qixiao’s forehead throbbed. "Xuanxuan, don’t overthink it. The reason I won’t marry you isn’t because of your face—it’s because I only see you as my sister."
Not wanting to provoke Song Xuan further, he simply focused on getting her back home.
But Song Xuan was unwilling to let it go. "Xiao, since everyone says only Doctor Ji can save me, could you talk to her again for me?"
