These words were like a whip, lashing fiercely upon Qiao Chutian's heart.
He placed her hand within his own palm and looked at her with determined eyes, "Don't be afraid, with me here, you will definitely be able to stand, to walk!"
"What if I can't walk?"
Mai Xiaomai looked at him with fearful and bewildered eyes, "If I become disabled, what should I do?"
"If you can't walk, I'll carry you! Being physically disabled doesn't make you useless; it's only when you become despondent, give up on yourself, and give up hope that you truly become useless! Xiaomai, believe in me, you can walk!"
Qiao Chutian gently caressed her swollen knee with a pained heart, "You have to take care of yourself first, you can't be so willful, what if you really hurt your knee badly, it would be very difficult to stand up again, you know?"
Mai Xiaomai bit her lip and cast her eyes down.
"All right, be good, sit still, I'll apply some medicine to your knee."
