"That's not what I mean." Yan Xi frowned and wanted to explain. "I know you're worried about me, but…"
However, what else could she say? She couldn't possibly tell him that she did the acupuncture herself and that she knew very well about acupuncture.
Yan Xi sighed and her tone softened. "Gu Shen, I know I was wrong. I won't do this again. Can you…" She bit her lip and looked tearful." Don't blame me anymore. "
She was pleading and afraid.
Looking at her almond-shaped eyes, the anger in Gu Shen's heart was extinguished again.
Gu Shen let go of Yan Xi and put down her rolled up pants to cover the scary sight. His movements were very light, as if he was protecting some fragile porcelain.
After a long silence, he said again, "Yan Xi, my legs can't walk, but yours can, so protect them."
His heart ached everytime she looked at the scars and red dots on her legs.
"Promise me, okay?"
