After a period of chaos, Xiao Zhenyun reappeared in the screen. He fixed the base of the wheelchair, and used his elbows to push himself up. In the middle of the process, he did not forget to report to Si Di that he was safe. "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine."
"No, you don't look well at all."
"You're mistaken. I've never felt so good before." Xiao Zhenyun tried to maintain his dignity expressionlessly. He dragged his two steel-like legs, like a puppet that had just been made and had not yet had time to make joints, and tried hard to squeeze himself back into the wheelchair.
The bending and swinging of the prosthetic limbs were all controlled by his brain, and once he became proficient in it, the feeling of using it was almost the same as using a real leg. But now... Xiao Zhenyun almost felt that his brain was no longer controlled by his thoughts, and it kept sending some strange commands to the prosthetic limbs, causing him to do splits crazily on the carpet.
Si Di felt distressed and amused at the same time. He covered the corner of his mouth with one hand, looking down and then up again. He turned his head to lick his lips, pressed the corners of his mouth with his index finger and thumb, and frowned painfully: "How about... take a break?"
Xiao Zhenyun closed his eyes in silence, resigned to his fate. He raised his hand to summon another floating screen and called Hedgehog.
"Please come over here, I'm in a bit of trouble."
"Ah? I'm busy." The hedgehog lazily turned over in bed. "Besides, what kind of trouble could you possibly get into in the room so late at night? Did you get your zipper stuck while talking to Black Wolf?"
"…" Xiao Zhenyun paused for two seconds, "About the same."
"Okay, I'm coming." The hedgehog knocked on the door excitedly. The moment he rushed in, his face was full of "How can I not call you for such a good thing?" Then he saw Xiao Zhenyun with a coat around his waist and his legs kneeling on the ground.
"Well, that's a very girlish posture." The hedgehog circled around him, then laughed loudly without giving him any face.
Si Di was also suddenly unable to stop laughing when he was taken away. He stretched his legs and leaned back against the bed in a relaxed posture. His eyes were curved like crescent moons as he watched Xiao Zhenyun on the screen angrily throwing a tissue at the hedgehog: "Stop laughing, help me get up."
"Oh, you're still so aggressive when you need my help?"
"Hedgehog, don't take Qiao." Si Di finally felt sorry for her after he finished laughing, "Help Zhenyun up quickly."
"Okay, okay, okay, hey, I'm destined to be a slave..." Hedgehog bent down and let Xiao Zhenyun use his arm as a handrail to help him stand up steadily. After Xiao Zhenyun stood up completely, he slowly withdrew his hand, until he completely let go and retreated one meter away, Xiao Zhenyun was still standing straight in the same place.
The hedgehog crossed his arms and commented, "Yo, not bad, you're standing up."
Xiao Zhenyun's eyes were full of joy. He did not move his legs rashly. He just stood there, lowered his head to look left and right, then raised his eyes to look at Si Di.
"Congratulations." Si Di clapped his hands happily, "Uncle, don't stand for too long for the first time, let..."
Before he could finish his words, a loud noise interrupted him—
"Uncle?!"
Si Chu opened the door and rushed into Si Di's room, his round amber eyes showing both surprise and joy, with the battered Xiao Nian on his back, "I heard you talk about uncle, is there any news about uncle?!"
Si Di's smile froze on his face: "..."
