Fen Lin made eye contact with Gu Jiao, hoping she could persuade Xiao Liulang. However, Gu Jiao pretended not to see him, infuriating Fen Lin.

Before the surgery, the old doctor handed over a strange document, causing Xiao Liulang to falter.

“What’s this?” he asked.

The old doctor coughed lightly, “It’s a surgery consent form, and a family member needs to sign it.”

This was puzzling.

He had been a doctor for decades and had never heard of such a thing!

However, it was strongly requested by Miss Gu, so they had no choice but to comply.

Fen Lin couldn’t sign the document, Xiao Liulang himself couldn’t either, so now it was Dr. Gu who was going to experience what it was like to be a family member. She then realized in dismay that she didn’t know how to write her own name!

How sad, isn’t it?

Didn’t they think of this problem when they asked the second shopkeeper to prepare the surgery consent form?

If she wrote her name ‘Gu Jiao’ hastily with the ink pen she used in her last life, wouldn’t it be regarded as gibberish?

The scariest thing was the sudden silence.

Gu Jiao held her pen, scratching her head and cheeks in frustration, her face flushing red.

The plan to show off in front of Xiao Liulang backfired.

Xiao Liulang glanced at Gu Jiao, assuming her ability to write based on how well she was holding the pen.

In the end, Xiao Liulang ended up signing Gu Jiao’s name on her behalf.

Xiao Liulang was then taken to a specially arranged room. Using the calming soup on multiple occasions could easily give the game away, so this time, the old doctor handed him a bowl of Ma Fei San (an ancient anesthesia).

The Ma Fei San, an ancient anesthetic, was reportedly invented by the miraculous doctor Hua Tuo. The original recipe was lost, so nowadays, most doctors use medicine made from mandala flower powder or juice.

This type of medicine not only numbs and calms the patient but also causes muscle relaxation and inhibits the sweat glands. That’s why it’s also called the Paralysis Medicine.

The Paralysis Medicine was highly poisonous, so of course, Gu Jiao wouldn’t use it on Xiao Liulang. The medicine in the bowl was actually the calming medicine from the Huichun Hall.

Xiao Liulang fell into a deep sleep shortly after drinking it.

Gu Jiao made an excuse to leave Fen Lin behind. This time, it was going to take longer than before, so instead of excusing herself saying she needed to use the restroom, she said she was going to browse street shops to see if there were any holiday goods to buy.

Fen Lin was livid. He had just let Xiao Liulang go, and now he’s about to be operated on. And what’s she doing? Going shopping?!

She was indeed a heartless woman!

From the back door, Gu Jiao returned to Huichun Hall. The old doctor was already waiting for her at the door of the room.

The old doctor was an old staffer of the Huichun Hall and had been working here for no less than thirty years. His medical skills might not match those of Dr. Zhang’s in Capital City, but he was an absolute gentleman in his field. Otherwise, the second shopkeeper would not have trusted him to be part of this.

The old doctor was extremely curious about this surgery, so much so he was considering accompanying Gu Jiao inside.

However, Gu Jiao seemed to have no clue of his intentions and closed the door as soon as she entered the room.

The old doctor: “…”

Gu Jiao felt sorry for the old doctor. She decided to give him a few medical prescriptions as a gesture of gratitude later. As for the secret of her first aid kit, she had no intention of letting anyone else know, at least for now.

Gu Jiao opened the first aid kit and first gave Xiao Liulang a local anesthetic.

…

When Xiao Liulang woke up, the old doctor was still by his side. _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}
