Chapter 784 - Mr. Mo (1/2)
“Who told you that it has been cut off?” Chu Lui really felt that he was on a different page from this woman, and it almost seemed that he was talking to the cow. They had clearly done a bone correction surgery and not an amputation surgery.
They had been discussing this all along, but no one said anything about amputation. Why did she think that it was gone? It could not be that after all these days, this woman still thought that she was missing an arm.
“Is it not?” Xia Ruoxin turned her head away. If it was broken, then it was broken.
Chu Lui was caught between laughter and tears.
“Take a look yourself if it’s broken.”
Xia Ruoxin did not want to look.
“Look at it.” Chu Lui said and sat aside, waiting for her to figure out herself. Besides, in this situation, she might not believe anyone’s words until she saw it and confirmed it for herself.
Her arm was still there.
Xia Ruoxin closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Chu Lui knew her personality, and no matter how tough she was, she would not be able to accept her imperfect body. After all, some things could never grow back. He could not save Rainy’s kidney, but he did save Xia Ruoxin’s arm. At the very least, he was not useless, right?
He stood up, opened the door, and left; leaving the room filled with silence to Xia Ruoxin alone.
After he left, Xia Ruoxin then opened her eyes slowly.
She had always been avoiding looking at her left arm. All along, she thought that it was gone… it was cut away. However, Chu Lui did tell her that her left arm was still around and attached to her body.
From her shoulder, to her arm, and then to her wrist; she had an obvious pain that could not trick anyone. This pain was not fake. She turned around carefully, and her gaze landed on her shoulders before moving down. It turned out that there was a thick cast on her shoulder. No wonder it could not move, and because it could not move, she had thought that her arm was already gone.
The cast was made above her wrist and only exposed her fingers.
She moved her hand in disbelief. Was this a fake hand?
Once and twice, she tried carefully. The pinkie on her left hand moved a little, followed by her index finger. Since she could still move those fingers, her arm was there; her arm was really still there.
However, what was going on? Did they not amputate her arm?
When Chu Lui came back, he was holding a bunch of perfume lilies.
“Does it smell good?” He passed the flowers to Xia Ruoxin. “The florist said these smell especially good. If you place it in the ward, the whole room would have the smell in no time.”
“It smells really good.” Xia Ruoxin smelled lightly again.
It was really fragrant. No wonder it was called perfume lily.
Chu Lui placed the flowers in the vase. Once every few days, he would buy a bouquet back because he knew that she liked it. From time to time, Xia Ruoxin would stare at the vase and—sometimes—picked up the vase to arrange the flowers. However, she was afraid that the flowers would wilt. Flowers would bloom and wilt: it was an unavoidable process so he would always replace it with new ones after it bloomed for a few days. Hence, no matter when she saw the flowers, it would always be blooming.
