After lying flat on his back in the hospital bed for more than a week, Hsien Ming-yu was finally able to sit up on his own.
I still have no feeling in my legs.
He couldn't get out of bed on his own and needed help from others.
It was already a miracle that he was able to escape death, and the hope of him getting back on his feet was extremely slim.
The doctor said it would take at least three years to recover, and it would require a slow and gradual recovery; it couldn't be forced.
Three years? How could Xian Mingyu possibly wait that long?
He had already wronged her for four years. How could he accept waiting another three years and having her take care of a disabled person like him?
Bai Xiaoruo massages Xuan Mingyu every day, carefully kneading every part of his body, hoping that he can stand up again soon.
However, Hsien Ming-yu was not moved by this; instead, he felt even more guilty.
His face was always expressionless, neither happy nor unhappy. He talked to her less and less, and the most he would say was to tell her to go away and not touch him.
She's pregnant now, which is already tough, and she has to devote most of her energy to taking care of him. It's really exhausting.
......
It's another morning.
"Hmm~" Bai Xiaoruo slowly sat up from next to Xuan Mingyu, rubbing her eyes as she realized that Xuan Mingyu had gotten up particularly early today, and he was already sitting up and leaning against the bed.
"Good morning, honey." She kissed his cheek, got out of bed in her slippers, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll make you breakfast in a bit."
"Little Ruo'er".
He grabbed her hand, preventing her from leaving.
"What's wrong?" She turned to look at him.
"From now on, don't stay with me in the hospital anymore. Go back home." The wound on her head had long since healed, leaving only a faint scar, and she could have been discharged long ago.
But in order to take care of him, she still lives here, from morning till night, never leaving his side.
There's a small kitchen here, and she now cooks him some nutritious porridge and light side dishes every day.
"How could I possibly go back at a time like this? Honey, don't worry, I'm really not tired, and the baby is being very good, not fussy at all. I love taking care of you like this, no matter where you are, I'm always by your side."
"But I don't like it this way."
Bai Xiaoruo paused for a moment, then silently lowered her eyes. "Do you... find me annoying?"
“That’s not what I meant… Normally, I would love to be with you all day long, but now… I’m going to be a burden to you. I really can’t bear to see you running around for me every day.”
"No, you are not a burden to me..." Bai Xiaoruo reached out and hugged him. She knew his pride, his unwillingness, and his pain. She could understand them all.
If she went back at this time, leaving him all alone in the hospital, how could she sleep peacefully?
Without him by her side, she felt insecure, always feeling empty and like something was missing.
So she won't leave, nor will she depart from him.
He was her savior and the person she loved most. If she turned away from him simply because of his injury, his inability to take care of himself, and his constant need for assistance, then she was not worthy of the sacrifices he made to protect her.
He was willing to risk his life for her, so why couldn't she take care of him wholeheartedly?
"Don't say such things. You saved my life. If you hadn't protected me at the most critical moment, you wouldn't be in this state. Even if you can never stand up again, I will never leave you. I don't want to go anywhere."
That's just how stubborn she is.
Once you've chosen someone, you've chosen them for life.
Xuan Mingyu didn't know how to comfort her, so he reached out and hugged her back, and neither of them said anything more.
He couldn't let her down again, and he couldn't give up on himself anymore.
Whether it's three years or thirty years, it's all just nonsense. He hasn't even tried to stand and walk yet, and he hasn't started rehabilitation training. Who can say for sure that it will take that long to recover?
From childhood to adulthood, he has never lost in anything he has done, and this time, he will not bow to fate either.
It's just a matter of learning to walk again, what's the big deal?
***
Hsien Ming-yu's recovery is progressing well. He can lie down and sit without any problems, and the wound on his head has healed. The doctor suggested that he go out and walk around more often, and with the help of his family, he can go out in a wheelchair to breathe some fresh air. Staying cooped up in the ward all the time is not good for his recovery.
Bai Xiaoruo's belly is getting bigger every day. Although she is only three months pregnant, her lower abdomen has already bulged out into a small round shape. If you don't look closely, you might think she has gained weight and developed a small belly.
She followed beside Xian Mingyu's wheelchair, his bodyguard pushing him from behind. She was pregnant and needed to move around more to benefit the baby's development.
"Honey, look, there are so many beautiful flowers here."
"Look, look, there's even a fish pond!"
Although it wasn't Bai Xiaoruo's first time going for a walk, she always seemed particularly excited when she was with him.
She held his hand in hers, not daring to walk too fast for fear he wouldn't be able to keep up, yet also wanting to go forward and take a look.
"I saw Youyou!"
She suddenly let go of his hand and ran over.
"Slow down."
Xian Mingyu called to her from behind.
No matter what, she was pregnant, and he felt that this pregnancy was completely different from the previous one.
At that time, she was like a sickly person every day, always listless and sleepy. Her pregnancy reactions were also very severe, and she couldn't eat anything or was very picky about food.
