Zhou Linghuai also felt that his question was quite strange.

Yu Youyao looked at her cousin with sparkling eyes, filled with anticipation. “Chang An said that Cousin’s riding skills are exquisite, and his archery skills are even more impressive. He can pierce through someone with an arrow a hundred steps away with one hand and take the head of an enemy general down out of a thousand troops. Back then, in the battle at Di Yuguan, Cousin killed three of Harmon’s generals alone. Not only that, but you’re also good at the Di people’s scimitar technique and have created a saber and horse strategy that specializes in subduing the Di people. I hope to see you riding and doing archery one day.”

Last year, during the battle in the Northern Barbarians, her cousin’s reputation spread throughout the world again.

She imagined that one day, she would be able to see her cousin riding a horse and leading the army. How heroic would that be?

He also wanted to see how heroic the scene in a poem was.

These were all things she had never understood and belonged to her cousin in the past.

She wanted to see them one by one.

He had always done his best to satisfy her requests. Zhou Linghuai smiled. “Okay!”

He gripped the armrest of the wheelchair tightly and slowly exerted strength under his feet. A strange force was felt in his legs. This force was suddenly poured in, causing his leg to hurt violently.

This pain was like a thousand cuts, cutting flesh and scraping bones.

Even someone as tolerant as Zhou Linghuai suddenly lost his composure and was in a daze.

Zhou Linghuai suddenly remembered that back then, on the battlefield in the North, he had been ambushed by the Marquis of Changxing and fell off his horse. At that moment, the pain of his body shattering almost made him lose his mind.

At this moment, he was “reliving” the heart-wrenching pain from back then.

It wasn’t until this moment that Zhou Linghuai finally understood!

Why did Uncle Sun say that his leg had yet to recover completely after the blood clots and his meridians were cleared? Whether he could stand up again and recover to normal depended on himself.

It turned out that the first obstacle to recovering his legs was not the pain during the acupuncture process, but the pain and despair that had been deeply remembered by his body, heart, and mind.

They had already been engraved in his mind, branded in his heart, and fused into his blood.

He needed to use greater willpower, endurance, and perseverance to smooth out these thoughts while enduring this soul-deep pain, eradicating the deep-rooted trauma of the past.

It was never his legs that hindered him from standing up again.

Instead, it was him.

To be precise, it was his former self.

He needed to conquer his mind. What he had to defeat was not his legs, but his past self.

The world was used to seeing other people to defeat, conquer, and even fight.

Very few people treated themselves as enemies and were absolutely submissive to their thoughts. This was human nature. How difficult was it to rebel against yourself?

But so what?

What Yin Huaixi wanted to do was something that no one could stop.

It was just his nature.

If he rebelled, so be it!

His body trembled violently, and his face turned pale and green at a visible speed.

Then, at a terrifying speed, it turned red and purple. contemporary romance

Bead-sized sweat rushed out of his forehead and rolled down his face.

He was breathing heavily, and he made a gurgling sound in his throat.

Yu Youyao saw that the veins on her cousin’s forehead were bulging. They couldn’t help but jump and twitch on his forehead. Her cousin gripped the armrest of the wheelchair tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand rose in crisscross patterns. Muscles spread from the back of his hand to his arm, looking very terrifying.

Yu Youyao looked at her cousin in horror. She was in a daze, as if she was frightened.

She had thought that standing up again would be an easy task. He would just have to practice more. He had never expected this to be a painful torture for her cousin.

Under Yu Youyao’s frightened and confused gaze, Zhou Linghuai stood up.

His face was pale. In a short period of time, his lips had already cracked, but he maintained his swaying figure and looked at Yu Youyao. “I’m standing up.” With that, his body tilted and he fell back into the wheelchair.

The wheelchair was fixed to the ground, and fortunately, nothing went wrong.

This time, he only stood for a moment.

Just for this moment, he wanted to prove to Yu Youyao that he could do it. He would help her realize the scenes she was looking forward to.

In just a moment, he had used all the strength in his body and all the willpower he had in his life.

However, this was only the beginning.

Yu Youyao cried and threw herself into her cousin’s arms. “Cousin, don’t try anymore. We won’t try it anymore. We’ll try again after Cousin receives treatment again, okay…”

She did not know what her cousin had experienced while he was trying to stand up.

In fact, her cousin did not stand up immediately.

She watched with her own eyes as her cousin’s hands went from holding the armrests of the wheelchair tightly to supporting them with his arms. Bit by bit, he used his bent elbows to support his entire weight and his legs. From the intense pain to the struggle and gritted his teeth. He used his arms and broken legs to support all his strength.

This process was not short. It took at least half an incense stick of time (five minutes).

It was too scary.

“Don’t, don’t cry…” As soon as he opened his mouth, there was a fishy taste in his mouth that choked in his throat. Zhou Linghuai coughed hard, and blood foam flowed out of his mouth and nose.

“Cousin, why are you bleeding?” Yu Youyao panicked and used a handkerchief to wipe the blood from her cousin’s mouth and nose. “What’s going on?” Seeing her cousin paralyzed in the wheelchair, his face was pale and sallow. She quickly shouted in panic, “Chang An, Uncle Sun, come quickly…”

It was all her fault for being too rash. She should have asked Uncle Sun to keep an eye on him.

Zhou Linghuai held her hand and comforted her. “I’m fine. I just gritted my teeth too tightly. The roots of my teeth are bleeding. I’m not injured. Don’t worry, I want my leg to recover. I have to walk back and forth this time. I want to let you see the first time I stand up with your own eyes. I…” He looked at Yu Youyao steadily and smiled. “I’m very happy.”

Standing up again was more difficult than she had imagined.

However, because she was present, everything was easier than he had imagined. At the very least, it was impossible for him to be a failure in front of the girl he loved.

The first step was always the hardest.

After the first time, it would be easier in the future.

Uncle Sun did not leave his pharmacy and stayed in the study beside him. When he heard Yu Youyao’s shout, his heart skipped a beat. He quickly walked into the house. “What’s wrong?”

Yu Youyao’s face turned pale. When she saw Uncle Sun, it was as if she had seen a life-saving straw.. “Uncle Sun, just now, Cousin suddenly stood up and…’
