Nangong Xiu woke up by the second night, while Li Yeqi was already able to get out of bed and move around. Yan Luoxi supported him as he shuffled around the room, "The doctor said you need to move more so your wound heals faster."
Li Yeqi leaned on her shoulder, walked two circles, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. Yan Luoxi helped him back to the bed to sit down; she lay on the bed, too exhausted to move.
Being a human crutch is really tough.
"I'm exhausted. I need to catch my breath before saying anything. Li Yeqi, did you deliberately put all your weight on me? My legs are shaking." Yan Luoxi complained weakly.
Li Yeqi sat at the bedside, watching her lie there motionless, a smile tugging at his lips, "Didn't you say you'd be my reliable support, that you could hold me up?"
