As long as Shen Xi knew that he didn't despise her, everything else was fine. Regardless of whether he was willing or not, she squatted down and removed the blanket from his legs. She said seriously, "I've already prepared everything. Even if you can't do it, you have to. I'm a doctor, and the patient has to listen to the doctor."
Li Yuen frowned slightly as he watched the young lady remove his shoes, socks, and pants. Her movements were neat and tidy. He couldn't feel anything in his legs, but when her fair little hands touched them, he felt as if his heart was touched.
This was the first time Shen Xi saw his legs. The muscles in his legs were already showing signs of atrophy, especially his calves. They were as thin as a stick, and his skin was a little dry. His skin was abnormally pale.
Li Yuen looked at the young lady's hands, which were glowing like jade, and then at his legs. Hatred and cruelty appeared in the depths of his eyes, and a deep sense of powerlessness swallowed him whole.
They were ugly!
His legs must be very ugly!
Ever since he was injured, he had never been willing to look at his legs. They were ugly, detestable, and made him feel hopeless and powerless!
Shen Xi examined his legs carefully. Her fair fingers gently and carefully placed his legs in the water. She said, "Brother, from today onwards, we'll have to do massage and acupuncture once a day. After half a month, we'll change it to once every two days. Can you do that?"
Li Yuen's hands were clenched tightly. He was afraid that he would see sympathy, disgust, and disappointment in her eyes.
Fortunately.
She didn't.
She didn't despise his ugly legs at all.
"They're ugly, aren't they?" He looked at her seriously and asked instead of answering. His tone was self-deprecating, but there was also a hint of eagerness in it.
"Yes." Shen Xi nodded. She was telling the truth. She clearly felt the man's body stiffen. She looked up and met his seemingly humble eyes. Her heart ached slightly, but she smiled brightly and said confidently, "So you have to exercise well. You have to trust me and cooperate with my work. When you can stand up, you can exercise well."
"Will you give up on me?" Li Yuen's words seemed to be squeezed out from the deepest part of her heart. In the depths of her eyes, there was a burning desire for possession.
She was his last hope, his last salvation. She was the one who had pulled him out from the endless cold darkness. She had to take responsibility for him to the end!
"If you don't give up on me, I won't give up on you, unless you don't need me anymore and chase me away." Shen Xi replied word by word. She looked at his feet and muttered to herself, "Your toenails are a little long. I'll cut them later."
"I won't." Li Yuen looked at her deeply. The madness in his eyes disappeared bit by bit, and he returned to normal. He looked at his little sun in front of him. The warm and bright light shone into his heart. The darkness and haze in his heart also disappeared.
He would not give up on her and chase her away.
He was afraid that she would give up and leave him.
He didn't know what crazy things he would do at that time. He didn't know if he would lose his mind and hurt her.
"Then let's make a promise. We won't leave each other." Shen Xi raised her little head and stretched out her little finger at him. Seeing that he didn't move, she urged him, "Pinky swear!"
Li Yuen stretched out his little finger.
"Wait a minute, let me wipe it." Shen Xi suddenly remembered that her hands were still wet and wanted to wipe them.
Li Yuen had already hooked his little finger with hers. His voice was obviously a little tighter. He stared at her with his long and dark eyes. "Pinky swear."
"Pinky swear. You can't change your mind for a hundred years." Shen Xi was as happy as a child. She said to him, "I still need to stamp it. Hurry up."
Li Yuen's mood finally relaxed completely. He stretched out his thumb and stamped it with her.
He wouldn't let her go. Absolutely not. She could only stay by his side for the rest of her life.
"Brother, you don't have to worry about me. Do your own things. Look at the documents and deal with the official business!" Shen Xi instructed him and began to get serious.
Her massage and acupuncture were different from those of ordinary people. She had to control the acupuncture points and meridians very precisely. Naturally, she had to give 100% of her energy and focus.
Li Yuen didn't have the mood to deal with other things. He just stared at her seriously without blinking. He couldn't get enough of her.
When the little girl was serious, her little face was unusually serious. It was different from usual. In her words, it was very valiant.
An hour later.
Shen Xi finished the massage and acupuncture for him. She felt like she was about to collapse, but her heart relaxed. The most important step had finally been taken.
Li Yuen looked at the little girl who seemed to have lost all her strength. Her little face was pale, and her forehead was covered with sweat. She even had to carry a basin of water. His heart ached for her. "Let Kunlun do it. You go and rest."
Shen Xi smiled at him. She wanted to reassure him. "I didn't do anything. I'm not tired."
Li Yuen looked at the little liar in front of him and took a tissue to wipe her sweat. For the past hour, she had been tense and focused 100% of her energy. She was afraid that she would make a mistake. Did she think that he didn't know?
Kunlun quickly came in and carried the basin of water out. He was full of admiration for Shen Xi. Good job. She had settled the boss in such a short time.
Situ had mentioned acupuncture and massage before. However, he was directly rejected by Shen Xi. After that, he didn't dare to mention it again.
Shen Xi wanted to squat down and put on his socks and shoes.
Li Yuen clasped her hand and pulled her to sit on the chair next to him. "I'm not a useless person."
Shen Xi didn't feel good when she heard this. Her mouth was bitter and her eyes were sore and swollen. She looked at him and wanted to say something. In the end, she didn't say anything. She only looked at him with heartache. He bent down, put on his shoes and socks, and rolled down his rolled up trousers.
"You should go back to sleep now!" Li Yuen looked at her with a little helplessness and a little love.
Shen Xi nodded. She stood up and ran. When she reached the door, she turned back and pointed at him. "Once a day!"
Li Yuen responded softly and followed her in his wheelchair.
Once a day?
Wasn't she afraid that her parents would see her?
Shen Xi entered the bedroom. Milk Candy glanced at Li Yuen and ran in behind her.
Li Yuen looked at the door for a moment. When he saw the young lady open the door and reveal her fluffy head, he said before she could say anything, "Goodnight."
Shen Xi smiled and waved her hand. "Goodnight, Brother."
After that, she jumped onto the bed contentedly and rolled around with Milk Candy in her arms. She was as happy as a fool. The acupuncture and massage that she had planned for so long was finally a success!
Li Yuen heard no more movements from the young lady's room. He glanced coldly at Fu Qingye's bedroom. After that, he stopped working. He turned off the lights and stood quietly at the door, waiting for him to appear.
The Fu family came at the right time. Even if they didn't come, he was going to find them and have a good chat.
