"That's right," Helian Beiming said. "My leg is indeed stronger than before. When I stand up occasionally, it won't be as painful as before."
Helian Beiming could stand up, but the price of standing up was a bone-chilling pain. Under such circumstances, he could not walk at all, so he could only sit in a wheelchair. However, a few days ago, when Madam Tan was not in the room, Helian Beiming fell to the ground. He planned to sit back in the wheelchair before Madam Tan returned. Then, he realized that the moment he stood up, he had much more strength and it did not hurt that much.
It would be a lie to say that it did not hurt at all, but it was within an acceptable range.
He could not explain what was going on either. However, he did not tell Madam Tan. He was worried that if he did, he would bring her hope of recovery. But he had long lost confidence in his legs. He was afraid that he would disappoint Madam Tan again.
