"It can't be cured. It's been so long, it should have been incurable. Besides, it's still such a big patch." After hearing Zhong Mingwei's voice, Ah Chou felt less aggrieved. She wanted to act like a spoiled child, but she couldn't. She rubbed it awkwardly under the man's hand. Just like a cat begging for food under her hand before, she said coyly, "But it doesn't matter. It doesn't hurt or itch. If you... you think it's ugly, I will, I will let my hair down in the future. It can be covered. What you can't see is on my chin..."
"It's not ugly." Zhong Mingwei almost blurted out.
How could he find it ugly?
This is the suffering that Achou endured for him, and it is the price Achou paid for coming to him step by step.
He looked at the shy and naive girl on his knees. His heart was about to melt. He suddenly felt that it was worth it. No matter the hardships he had endured over the years, or the inhumane abuse he had suffered in the clan residence, or the eight months of not seeing the sun, it was all worth it. It was really worth it. He couldn't imagine anything in the world that was more precious than this girl's naive smile, even the position of the Supreme Lord that he had once longed for.
"I, I don't think I'm ugly either. I'm naturally beautiful, so naturally everything is good for me... hehehe!" Ah Chou seemed to want to save face, so she pretended to be serious. However, before she finished her words, she broke her act, turned her head suddenly, and buried her head in the man's legs and laughed again.
Zhong Mingwei also laughed with her, and gathered her hair, combing it while gathering it towards the middle. Finally, he gathered it into his palm and made it into a neat ponytail. Then he took out the red hairband and wrapped it around and tied it up.
"Okay." Zhong Mingwei stroked Achou's limp hair, looked at the ponytail, and was very satisfied with his craftsmanship.
"Very good," Ah Chou was also very satisfied and slowly stood up. She actually wanted to stay on the man for a while longer, but her hair was already tied up, and she was too embarrassed to stay any longer. She stared at the man's legs with her dark eyes and pinched her ponytail with her hand, "You tied it much better than mine."
"Then I will braid your hair from now on." Zhong Mingwei was very proud of finally finding a job he was good at.
"Okay, you braid my hair and I'll rub your legs." Ah Chou put his hands on the place where he had just laid down, rubbing them gently, and said to Zhong Mingwei, "I think your legs are stronger than a few days ago. They are plump here."
Zhong Mingwei also pinched it and frowned as he said, "It has grown in size, but I still can't use my strength."
"How can it get better so quickly? I'm quite satisfied with you now," Ah Chou said as he took out a half-finished embroidery piece from the needlework basket and continued to embroider with his head down, muttering, "To be honest, when I saw you just now, my heart sank. I didn't dare to say it at the time, but I was thinking in my heart, this person has become like this, what should I do in the future?"
"What if...what if I remain paralyzed forever?" After hesitating for a long time, Zhong Mingwei finally asked.
"Then I will serve you for the rest of my life," Ah Chou didn't even raise her head, still embroidering. She rubbed the needle through her hair and continued embroidering, while she said, "It's not a big deal."
Zhong Mingwei smiled bitterly in his heart. Isn't this a big deal? Spending your whole life just to serve a paralytic?
But Zhong Mingwei knew that Achou was telling the truth, and because he knew it was the truth, Zhong Mingwei felt even more sorry for her.
This stupid, foolish and lovable girl.
"What is being embroidered?" Zhong Mingwei saw Ah Chou staring at the embroidery piece without blinking, so he also looked at it. However, he couldn't make out what it was even if he looked upside down.
"Mandarin ducks playing in the water," Ah Chou said, adding, "It should be used on the bride's bellyband..."
Then Achou's voice suddenly stopped.
