From the X-ray, there was obvious displacement of the posterior spine. This meant the damage was very serious. After carefully going over several X-ray films, Chen Lie wiped sweat from his forehead nervously and stammered to Gu Ninzhi, "T-Thankfully Huo Shaoheng had secured you tightly with the seatbelt, otherwise you'd be paralyzed today." The best way to treat spinal injury was to avoid movement. Huo Shaoheng tying her up completely to prevent any rough movement on her body had deflected any pressure to her spine and further deterioration of her condition. Chen Lie would have made the same decision if he had been present at the site of accident.
"It's that serious?" Gu Nianzhi couldn't believe it. "I'd only hit my back against the shopping cart and I don't feel anything wrong at all. It just hurt like stabbing needles when you patted me just now."
