Huo Jinyan hurriedly went forward to catch her and hold her arm.
Lu Ning threw herself onto him. Pain kept coming from her leg, and her face turned pale.
She was afraid that Huo Jinyan would be worried if he saw her face, so she buried her face in his chest so that he could not see.
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Is it too painful? I’ll get the doctor.”
Lu Ning quickly grabbed his arm. “No, it’s nothing. There’s no need to make such a fuss. It’s really nothing.”
She looked up at Huo Jinyan and smiled.
Huo Jinyan looked at her obviously pale face, frowned, and sighed as he helped her up.
Just now, when Huo Jinyan was supporting her, most of her weight was on Huo Jinyan. Every step she took was carried by Huo Jinyan, so she did not have to use much strength. Now that she was walking on her own, however, her entire weight was on one leg. There was no way it could feel anything like before.
Lu Ning sat on the bed and looked at Huo Jinyan. She tugged at the corner of his shirt. “I was mistaken. Once I get better, can you help me walk again?”
Right now, she was looking for people to fulfill her social needs—people who were fun to tease, people who were easy to talk to, and people who would listen to her.
Crucially, these roles were all fulfilled by one person, and that person was Huo
Jinyan.
Of course, Lu Ning was also very good at wheedling.
How could Huo Jinyan bear to say anything to her? All he could do, was look at her helplessly and tell her to lie down.
Lu Ning looked at his expression and knew that he was feeling upset and guilty. “It really doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s good to give it a try.”
Huo Jinyan covered her with a blanket. “What’s so good about it? Will it heal after a little pain?”
Lu Ning pursed her lips as she looked at him. “Don’t be angry.”
Huo Jinyan just looked at her quietly, his fingers gently sliding across her forehead. “I’m not angry. Go to sleep, or I’ll really be angry.”
Lu Ning obediently lay down and closed her eyes.
Huo Jinyan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her, his gaze moving from her face to her legs.
His eyes were downcast; under the warm light, he looked a little cold.
The truth was the diagnosis for Lu Ning’s leg was not good, and he did not dare to tell her.
He did not dare to say anything. When she was about to walk just now, he could not say anything to her when he saw her eager and expectant face. He could only listen to her and let her try.
But the doctor’s words still hovered in his mind.
‘…It might be a little difficult for her to walk normally in the future. ‘
Gu Chen was also there at the time. After reading Lu Ning’s medical report, he did not say a word. The two of them went to the balcony of the hospital, and smoked two cigarettes without saying anything. After the smoke, Gu Chen immediately bought a plane ticket to Yizhou and promptly left the hospital. He could not bear to tell Lu Ning this. He could only say that everything was line.
He did not mind whether she could walk or stand beside him.
However, he knew that Lu Ning minded. She minded these things.
He looked at the sleeping girl, his eyes filled with heartache and pity.
I won’t let anything happen to you. I’ll do everything I can to have your leg healed.
After Lu Ning fell asleep, he quietly took his phone and walked out.
When she woke up the next morning, Lu Ning was happily preparing to be discharged.
Huo Jinyan handed her the clothes Shen Yunci had prepared.
Lu Ning looked at the clothes and then at Huo Jinyan.
Huo Jinyan looked at her. “What is it? Do you want me to help you put them
His hand reached out as he spoke.
Lu Ning immediately slapped his hand away. “Shoo, I’ll change myself.’
Huo Jinyan smiled and bent down to kiss the top of her head. “Call me if you need anything. I’ll be outside..”
