Chapter 2206: Enjoying the Moment While It Lasts

Jiang Baobao did not continue to be sarcastic toward Jiang Mobai.

Her tone of voice also softened a little: "Even if you don't like going out, you should still go out to get some fresh air. Besides, after you finish learning from the old gardener, you can pick out some flowers and plants that Kexuan would like to bring back as an apology."

The reason Jiang Baobao gave was very thoughtful.

It was also very hard for anyone to refuse.

For a moment, Jiang Mobai did not speak.

Jiang Baobao knew that Jiang Mobai was considering it.

She did not urge him either; she just sat there, waiting quietly.

A moment later, Jiang Mobai finally spoke.

Only, he did not give an answer directly, but instead said: "Kexuan's temper hasn't been too good lately."

"Uh..."

Jiang Baobao did not understand what he meant by saying this.

After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively asked: "And then?"

Jiang Mobai just raised his head and said leisurely: "If I don't pick a few pots of flowers she likes, I'm afraid she won't calm down."

So this meant he agreed!

Jiang Baobao revealed a gratified smile.

Deep down, however, she was complaining about Jiang Mobai: You brat, that awkward look of yours is the same as always!

Jiang Mobai tidied up a bit and then set off with Jiang Baobao.

The destination was some distance away from the city center.

In the city, the traffic was heavy, and the roads were blocked from time to time.

Listening to the constant honking of horns, Jiang Mobai felt very annoyed.

But once they were far from the city, the view outside the window gradually opened up.

His restless mood also slowly relaxed.

Under the azure sky, the car finally stopped at the foot of a mountain.

Jiang Mobai got out of the car and saw a large field of flowers.

A breeze blew, and the flowers and plants swayed together with the wind.

Soft, and full of vitality.

Jiang Mobai closed his eyes slightly.

He felt his whole body being warmed by the sunlight, which was especially comfortable.

However, the next second, a sun hat appeared on Jiang Mobai's head.

At the same time, Jiang Baobao was still nagging: "The sun is very strong here, hurry up and put it on!"

Jiang Mobai raised his hand and took the hat off, saying: "I'm not wearing it, I want to enjoy the sunshine!"

"Fine, but you have to be able to bear the consequences of enjoying the sunshine."

"What consequences could there be? Isn't it just getting a little tanned?"

Jiang Mobai did not care at all.

He even walked toward the flower field first.

Seeing that this kid did not appreciate her kindness, Jiang Baobao hummed softly: "Be carefree now, when you go back tanned like a coal ball and get laughed at by Kexuan, you'll know what regret tastes like!"

After muttering, Jiang Baobao tied her own sun hat on.

Then she followed Jiang Mobai.

The old gardener was already waiting in the flower field.

Seeing Jiang Baobao, he greeted her briefly and then began the on-site instruction.

This flower field was truly very large.

According to the different varieties, the flower field was also divided into several areas.

The distance between the areas was quite far, requiring a small scooter to travel between them.

But the old gardener was chatting with such enthusiasm that he completely forgot about the small scooter.

They relied on their legs for the whole trip back and forth.

Jiang Baobao was worried that Jiang Mobai's legs could not take it, so she said: "Let's go to a shady spot and rest for a while."

Jiang Mobai's legs were shaking a little.

But when he saw that the white-haired old gardener had no intention of stopping, he stubbornly said: "I'm not tired."

"But your legs..."

"They're fine too."

"Hey, alright then. If you can't hold on, just say so; don't force yourself."

Jiang Mobai nodded slightly.

Then he took two quick steps to catch up with the old gardener.

Jiang Baobao could not keep up.

Seeing a flat stone nearby, she sat right down on it.

Whew—

Jiang Baobao let out a breath of comfort.

Then she gently rubbed her ankles.

Her eyes looked toward Jiang Mobai, who was standing in the field.

Jiang Mobai was learning very attentively, without a hint of impatience.

Sometimes, he could even lend the old gardener a hand.

This humble and patient demeanor was something Jiang Baobao had not anticipated beforehand.

It could be considered an unexpected joy.

Jiang Baobao narrowed her eyes slightly, a smile hanging on the corners of her lips.

Not far away, the old gardener picked up a few long branches and handed them over: "This is for you. Take it back and care for it according to the method I told you, and it will soon be covered in small white flowers."

At this moment, the branches were dry and withered, without even a single green leaf.

If they fell on the ground, Jiang Mobai wouldn't even spare them a glance.

But it was such an inconspicuous thing that would eventually be covered in small flowers at the tips of the branches.

This nature is truly magical!

And Su Kexuan would probably like such ordinary yet brilliant plants...

Jiang Mobai was lost in thought while simultaneously reaching out his hand.

But because he was distracted, he was a beat slow in catching the flower branch.

As a result, he didn't catch it.

He watched helplessly as the flower branch fell downward.

Jiang Mobai panicked.

Without hesitation, he discarded his crutches and caught the flower branch with both hands.

Phew, successfully caught!

Jiang Mobai let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, the old gardener also praised him: "Young man, your reflexes are very fast."

"Hehe, it's alright."

Jiang Mobai responded with a smile, his expression carrying a hint of pride.

On the other side, Jiang Baobao could not remain so calm.

She stood up with a "whoosh," her eyes wide open.

The next second, she hurried over, her lips trembling as she made a sound: "Mobai, you..."

Seeing her mother's shocked expression, Jiang Mobai didn't quite understand: "What's wrong with me? I didn't step on any flowers, did I?"

Jiang Mobai had indeed not stepped on any flowers or grass.

But...

Jiang Baobao shouted with an excited expression: "You, you are standing on your own!"

Hearing her mother's words, Jiang Mobai was completely stunned.

He hurriedly looked down at himself, and with a slight exertion of force in his right knee...

He could move it!

Afterward, Jiang Mobai carefully took a few more steps.

The movement wasn't very agile,

but he could indeed walk on his own!

Jiang Mobai never expected that coming here today would bring such an unexpected joy!

This is just too great!!

Jiang Mobai stood in the flower field, smiling foolishly.

But Jiang Baobao felt like crying.

The road to recovery was still very long.

But at least there was progress.

With progress, there is hope.

No matter how hard the future is, there is nothing to fear!

Jiang Baobao wiped the glimmer from the corners of her eyes.

Then she smiled and said to Jiang Mobai: "What do you want to eat today? Mom will make it for you!"

Jiang Mobai's heart was still beating violently from the excitement.

However, while overjoyed, he was also slowly calming down.

Blinking his eyes, Jiang Mobai said in a calm voice: "Although I have regained sensation, it is very likely temporary. Please don't hold too high expectations."

Jiang Baobao did not like hearing this.

She furrowed her brows, expressing her dissatisfaction: "You, why are you still pouring cold water on yourself!"

"I just don't want you to be happy for nothing."

"Your legs have indeed regained sensation; is this fake? I don't care what happens in the future, I am very happy today!"

Jiang Baobao's tone was firm.

That composed attitude invisibly infected Jiang Mobai as well.

Soon, Jiang Mobai curled the corners of his lips again.

He decided to listen to his mother and not think so much.

Being happy for a while is still being happy!

When leaving the flower field, Jiang Mobai not only obtained the flowers and grass, but also received green vegetables, free-range eggs, a rack of ribs, and fish caught by the old gardener himself.
