Shen Qingqing moved her leg slightly—everything was normal.
Her right hand, too.
Although her left hand was immobilized and felt very uncomfortable, she comforted herself.
Luckily, her legs weren't injured, or else she'd be unable to walk and would need help even to use the bathroom.
Shen Qingqing didn't want to trouble others, especially Jiang Zhixun.
This trip to the Northwest had been fraught with difficulties, leaving Shen Qingqing deeply frustrated.
Her expression was weary, and she seemed entirely lacking in energy.
Sister-in-law Wang tried talking to her, but Shen Qingqing only nodded or shook her head, or occasionally gave a dispirited response—completely listless.
Seeing her weakened state, Jiang Zhixun felt a sting of guilt deep in his heart.
If he had agreed to the divorce earlier, or gone to see Shen Qingqing as soon as he'd returned, she wouldn't have had to endure such suffering.
