A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.
Chapter 353 Regaining Freedom
Once you enter the gates of a noble family, it's like entering a deep, uncharted sea.
This He family is not a place where Gu Feng can come and go as he pleases.
As soon as he stepped out of the room, a group of guards surrounded him, but they were polite and asked him to come with them.
Gu Feng had no choice but to follow along, because he knew that if he didn't cooperate, they might become rude at any time.
In the study, Old Man He and his son and daughter-in-law sat with worried expressions, the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.
Upon seeing Gu Feng enter, He Tiansheng and Zhong Yufen immediately stood up to greet him: "Doctor!"
Gu Feng hummed in agreement.
Old Man He immediately asked, "You brat, how is Xiao Qing?"
"Can't you see for yourself how she is?" Gu Feng said expressionlessly.
Old Man He was immediately provoked by these words, and raised his cane: "You—"
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'I'? I've taken the consultation fee, and I've brought out the miracle you wanted. Now we're even, I have to go.'" Gu Feng said, turning to leave.
"Wait!" Old Man He shouted sternly.
Gu Feng had no choice but to stop, turning around to stare at him: "Old man, my patience has its limits. Don't push your luck, or we'll both go down together."
"Haha—" Old Man He laughed instead of getting angry, but the laugh was cold and devoid of warmth. "You little bastard, trying to scare me? I wasn't afraid when I was surrounded by hundreds of Japanese soldiers back in the day, why would I be afraid of you?"
"Old man, stop bringing up the old days. Things are completely different now. You're just a toothless tiger; all you can do is yell and scream, you can't even bite into anything. To put it bluntly, you're out of touch."
Mr. Gu has made considerable progress; at least he can now utter an English word.
"Waaaah!" Old Man He cried out in anger.
It looks like another major battle is about to break out.
"Alright! Dad, Doctor, can you two just shut up!" He Tiansheng was already annoyed, and seeing them bickering like this only made him more annoyed, so he finally couldn't help but yell.
Old Man He was taken aback, but ultimately kept quiet. Gu Feng also turned his head away, ignoring him.
As soon as they stopped, Zhong Yufen, who was still wiping away tears, quickly asked, "Doctor, can you tell me what's wrong with my daughter?"
"She has amnesia," Gu Feng said succinctly.
(Amnesia, usually caused by brain injury, can be psychogenic or dissociative. The patient experiences problems with consciousness, memory, identity, or the integration of their environment, which cannot be fully explained by physiological reasons. He Qiaoqing's case is a case of total amnesia. She has completely forgotten her background, name, relatives, everything.)
"Is it still treatable?" He Tiansheng hurriedly asked.
"It's hard to say," Gu Feng shook his head. But if Old Man He had asked him that question, he would have definitely replied: "Even if I could cure you, I wouldn't."
"What should we do..." Zhong Yufen started crying again.
"Take her to the hospital for another check-up. I've done all I can." Gu Feng's implication was clear: Let me go.
"Doctor, can't you think of another way?" Zhong Yufen pleaded.
"Auntie, I've already wasted too much time on this. I have my own life and things to do, and I can't stay here forever. You originally said you just wanted me to give He Qiaoqing physical therapy to prevent muscle atrophy. But when I arrived, it turned into me waking her up. Fine, I've woken her up now. Although the result isn't as perfect as you hoped, you really can't ask too much of me. Besides, she's a thousand times, ten thousand times better now than when she was lying there silently and unaware of anything."
Fearing further complications, Gu Feng appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him.
"Doctor..." Zhong Yufen still hadn't given up.
"Auntie, I've said everything I needed to say. Please don't keep me any longer, okay?" Gu Feng interrupted her.
Zhong Yufen finally nodded silently.
Old He tried to speak several times, but in the end he said nothing.
"Well... I'll be going now. If you really need my help in the future, we can talk about it later." Gu Feng added the last part in his mind.
The He family of three watched helplessly as Gu Feng swaggered out until his figure completely disappeared.
When Gu Feng left the He family's house, he looked relaxed and at ease.
But when they finally left the heavily guarded compound, their backs were already soaked with cold sweat.
He never wants to come back to this godforsaken place again, not even if you kill him.
When Gu Feng arrived home, Shi Yurou had just returned from outside.
The two met at the intersection, and she almost couldn't resist throwing herself into his arms.
"You... are back." A thousand words were condensed into just this one soft sentence.
Gu Feng smiled and nodded. During those three days at the He family's house, although there was a beautiful woman lying quietly beside him, letting him do whatever he wanted, Shi Yurou's voice and smile would still appear before his eyes from time to time, along with Su Man'er, Ding Hanhan, and Peng Liangpei.
"Let's go home." Shi Yurou mustered her courage, but at most she only dared to change the hug into holding hands, like an older sister holding her younger brother's hand.
When her soft hand took his, Gu Feng felt a sudden tremor in his heart.
The feeling was like encountering a short circuit in He Qiaoqing's room—a sensation that was both numb and tingling, warm and painful, slowly flowing through my heart.
Gu Feng used to think the distance from the intersection to his door was quite long.
Now it's incredibly short, it arrives in the blink of an eye.
As Shi Yurou's warm hand loosened, he felt a sense of loss.
"Are you hungry?" A typical virtuous wife and loving mother's first concern is always your stomach. Shi Yurou put down her things and asked the first question.
"I'm not hungry," Gu Feng shook his head.
Although he had no freedom at the He family's house, the food was quite good, with delicacies at every meal. If he were locked up any longer, he was afraid he would really get as fat as a pig.
"Are you tired? Let me give you a massage." Shi Yurou said as she sat down next to him, extending her slender white hands to relax his tense nerves.
A fresh and elegant fragrance of a mature woman wafted into Gu Feng's nostrils. He liked it, but he also felt a little like crying for help.
He enjoyed Shi Yurou's thoughtfulness, but the more she did, the more easily his mind wandered.
In his heart, Shi Yurou was just a kind older sister next door, someone he should respect and dared not have any wild thoughts about.
Even though that thought had inadvertently popped up several times before.
"Sister Rou, don't be busy, can you chat with me for a while?" Gu Feng said softly.
"Okay." Shi Yurou nodded obediently, but she didn't dare to look at him; her evasive gaze betrayed her nervousness.
"I've been gone for three days now, haven't I? Why didn't you even call me?" Gu Feng made conversation.
"I wanted to call, more than once. But the He family sent someone over and said you were treating their young lady, so they told me not to worry or disturb you. I was afraid of bothering you, so I didn't dare to call in the end," Shi Yurou quickly explained.
"That old geezer, really..." Gu Feng said bitterly.
Shi Yurou was taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and smooth his furrowed brows, but in the end she didn't dare, and only asked softly, "What exactly happened these past few days? Can you tell me?"
Gu Feng was feeling very frustrated and wanted to confide in someone, so he told them everything that had happened to him over the past three days.
His mouth was dry from talking, so he glanced up and saw a bottle of red wine on the corner of the table. He picked it up and poured a glass for himself and Shi Yurou.
Seeing Gu Feng pour the wine, Shi Yurou's heart skipped a beat, and her face flushed. She suddenly remembered that absurd yet enchanting night, and the man who had so passionately ravaged her body…
Now that I'm drinking again, will that night repeat itself?
