125 Hope for Legs
“By the way, there’s something else I have to tell you.” Since Shan Chen was already here, Shan Yue was determined to tell him the good news. “I’ve already contacted the doctor who treated you. There’s hope for your leg.”
“What? No way, Sister.” Shan Chen clearly did not believe it. His leg had been crippled for a long time. Sun Ling had also brought him to many doctors, but they all said that it was impossible for him to recover. He had long been in despair.
“You don’t have to doubt it. I went to Central City this time for your leg.” Seeing that Shan Chen was in disbelief, Shan Yue patted his shoulder comfortingly and took out a few pills from her bag.
“Sister.” Seeing that Shan Yue really took out the medicine, Shan Chen instantly felt a little dry in his throat, as if something was stuck. He wanted to say something, but all he could do was choke.
“It’s okay. Everything will be fine.” Although Shan Yue could not empathize, she understood Shan Chen’s excitement. Perhaps he was once a high-spirited youth, but an accident made him so gloomy at such a young age.
“Eat this. Wait for me to bring this bag to the pharmacy with a hot compress. Then, apply it on your leg every day. Let your leg slowly feel something and activate your nerves before treating it.” Shan Yue placed one of the packets of medicine in Shan Chen’s hand.
Feeling the heavy weight in his hand, Shan Chen came back to his senses. He suddenly felt that it was unreal. He had fantasized countless times about the day his leg was cured and had heard Shan Yue tell him that there was hope. However, when this day really came, he did not dare to think about it. He was afraid that this was all a dream and that it would hurt even more when he woke up.
“Sister, will I really get better?” Shan Chen asked carefully.
“Trust me. I’ll definitely make you better.” The young man in front of her made Shan Yue’s heart ache.
“Okay, I believe in Sister.” Shan Chen trusted Shan Yue unconditionally. He felt as if his heart had come alive and there was hope in his life again.
The two of them chatted for a while more before Shan Chen returned to his room and let Shan Yue rest.
The short weekend passed quickly. It was time for school again. Shan Yue still woke up on time and ran towards the park in her tracksuit. It had become something she had to do every day. In order to lose weight, she had to wake up an hour early every morning for aerobic training.
128 pounds. Shan Yue realized that she had lost another two pounds when she weighed herself. Everything was within her expectations. She would probably enter the weight loss plateau in a while and have to add in anaerobic exercise. In a few months, she would be able to reach a more standard weight.
After exercising and having breakfast, Shan Yue went to school with Shan Chen. Ever since the last fight, the school was a little afraid of Shan Yue. They only dared to point at her behind her back. No one dared to have a direct conflict with her again.
After a few incidents and setbacks, everyone confirmed that Shan Yue must have a powerful background. They did not know what kind of luck this girl in the slums suddenly had to know so many amazing people.
Shan Yue did not care about other people’s taste. She brought Shan Chen and strode into the school with her head raised and her chest puffed up.
Shan Chen, who had once felt inferior, followed his sister’s footsteps. For the first time, he felt that he could hold his head high and walk into school. He could not help but sigh. Finally, he could walk through the school with such confidence. He didn’t have to be afraid of the gazes of others. For a moment, he forgot about the existence of the limp.
He looked at his sister’s determined back and his eyes were a little moist. It had been a long time since he had looked at the sky since his leg was injured. It was really blue and beautiful.
The students they met on the way could not help but look at the siblings. Now that Shan Yue was already a celebrity in school, very few people did not know her. There were even rumors that Shan Yue was a tigress, but those who saw Shan Yue on the way were a little strange. Although this girl was fat, she was not as fierce as others said. On the contrary, she was a little cute.
