455 A Noticeable Change

"Y-You can move now…? Since when…?" Meixiu muttered in a low voice after Yuan's shocking reveal.

"To tell you the truth, my recovery started many weeks ago— even before you started playing Cultivation Online. In fact, I initially planned on keeping this a secret until I could get off the bed by myself, but I changed my mind after hearing your words just now." Yuan said.

"My words…?"

"Yes… Your voice when you congratulated me… I couldn't continue to keep it to myself after hearing it. I'm sorry for keeping it a secret for so long, but I wanted to make sure that I was actually recovering and not give you or Yu Rou false hope."

"It's okay. You don't have to apologize. I'm just glad that you're finally recovering, Yuan." Meixiu said to him in a gentle voice, feeling an indescribable feeling surging from her heart at this moment.

Unbeknownst to Meixiu at first, tears began appearing in her eyes before quickly falling down her face.
