442 Just Like a Normal Couple
Lu Gan could not bear to reject Song Ci’s request. He nodded and pressed his hands on her. Then, he slowly stood up.
Despite Lu Gan’s best effort to appear natural, there were clearly some difficulties.
Regardless, Song Ci was still happy and excited. She continued to support Lu Gan with both of her hands. The smile on her face became even more radiant.
“Our height difference is quite cute, isn’t it?”
Song Ci kept staring at Lu Gan. She could not get enough of him.
“Lu Gan, you’re the most handsome man on this planet.”
Lu Gan laughed.
The tension he felt earlier had completely disappeared.
Lu Gan never wanted Song Ci to see him in a sorry state. Just standing up took a lot of energy. Moreover, he was worried that she would feel sad because of his condition.
Fortunately, none of those negative feelings came to pass. Instead, Song Ci’s smile was more brilliant than ever.
Lu Gan stood up firmly and pulled Song Ci into his arms. He knew time was limited and did not waste even a second.
‘I finally get to hug her properly.’
If possible, Lu Gan wanted to stand and hold Song Ci forever.
Regardless, Song Ci was satisfied. To her, this situation was already a dream come true.
‘I feel like the happiest and luckiest person in this world.’
Lu Gan lowered his head. After kissing Song Ci’s ear, he gently blew on it.
Song Ci’s ears instantly turned red.
Suddenly, Lu Gan’s body trembled. He fell back on the bed again. Since Song Ci was holding him with both of her hands, she fell back too.
Song Ci blinked. Lu Gan did not fall on purpose. He had just reached his limit.
“Your legs haven’t fully recovered, right?”
Song Ci finally snapped back into reality.
‘I got carried away. Lu Gan was still using his wheelchair earlier today. Obviously, he hasn’t fully recovered.’
Lu Gan nodded. Song Ci looked worried, so he kissed her and said gently, “Don’t worry. I’ll slowly recover. Being able to stand up was already a good sign. I’m sure I can walk, run, and jump soon. I might even be able to carry you on my back. We’ll travel everywhere together and do things like normal couples.”
Those words made Song Ci feel at ease.
‘He’s right. I need to have more faith in him.’
Song Ci’s smile returned to her face.
“When did you start your rehabilitation?”
“I started practicing after I found out that your birthday was coming up. This is my surprise for you.”
Lu Gan put his arms around Song Ci’s waist.
Song Ci said happily, “I’m definitely surprised.”
Lu Gan laughed.
Song Ci hugged him affectionately.
“It must have been hard. Why didn’t you tell me anything? Where did you practice? Who accompanied you? Can I come along next time?”
