A Problem With Walking
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Ming, you're here," Gu Shaoting said, his voice weak and strained.
"Yes, it's me. How are you feeling?" He Ming felt a huge weight lift off his chest upon seeing that Gu Shaoting recognized him and could speak clearly.
"My leg hurts a lot," Gu Shaoting said, now fully aware of the excruciating pain in his leg.
"It's probably nerve damage. The doctors will run some tests soon," He Ming reassured him.
Gu Shaoting nodded weakly and closed his eyes again. Suddenly, he opened them and asked, "Ming, does Shu Pan know?"
"No, you instructed Secretary Zhang not to tell her, so I didn't. Do you want me to call her?" He Ming assumed that in such vulnerable moments, even a man would want his loved one by his side.
"No... don't tell her," Gu Shaoting forced out the words.
"Alright, I understand. Don't talk anymore. Just rest and recover," He Ming advised, seeing how much effort it took for Gu Shaoting to speak.
