POEIL

Chapter 48: Darling, you can sleep at ease.

In addition to being moved, Ji XiaoYu felt a bit grateful. The moment he was shot in the heart was ten times more painful than the birth of the little white egg. He thought he wouldn't be able to take it, that he would either die or change into his original form. But now, those two terrible results hadn't happened. Did that mean that his cultivation had become more refined and that he had become a really powerful spiritual beast?!

He couldn't help but feel smug, but unfortunately he couldn't share this with anyone else and he could only enjoy it by himself.

As he was happily thinking to himself, the man on the bedside took his hand again and pressed it to the left side of his chest. He said with a tone that had never been more serious, "Baby, thank you, I love you. From now on, Cheng YuTang, my whole person, my whole heart is yours. I don't know how long I'm going to live, but as long as I'm alive each day, I'll love you each day, until my heart no longer beats."

Hearing those three words caught him off-guard. For a moment, Ji XiaoYu didn't know if he wanted to laugh or cry. This man was too foul. Those pleasant-to-hear words were simply better than money, throwing him to earth one by one. He was so happy when he heard this that he spilled tears of joy.

Cheng YuTang waited for a while and still didn't hear what he wanted to hear. He couldn't help but urge, "So, Ji XiaoYu, my friend, is there anything you want to say to me?"

Say what? Ji XiaoYu felt a bit hot. After thinking about it, he said carefully, "Even if your leg is broken and you become crippled, I won't turn my back on you?"

This made Cheng YuTang want to cry. He said helplessly, "Baby, thank you for not abandoning me, but don't worry, I won't become crippled, it's just a fracture. There are no other major problems. If it's fast, I'll recover in one to two months."

Oh, that's great! Ji XiaoYu heaved a sigh of relief. He had been worried about that issue just now. But he had been afraid that Cheng YuTang's pride wouldn't be able to stand it, so he hadn't dared to mention it. But this was all good.

He didn't mean to discriminate against the crippled at all, but if this proud, handsome man couldn't walk freely in the future, then he could only rely on the wheelchair for movement. The kind of image just made him feel bad when he thought about it. Luckily, that didn't happen.

Cheng YuTang nodded and said positively, "Besides that, do you have any worries or concerns? Just say it and leave everything to me to fix."

What else? Ji XiaoYu grabbed his messy head of hair. If there was anything else he was worried about, it was only his own spiritual beast identity and the existence of the little white egg.

Now he and this man could be considered to be sharing one life and death, having gone through a shared struggle. And just now, he so solemnly confessed to him. So was he supposed to reveal his true identity to him? Otherwise, wasn't it a bit unfair to him?

But, better to be safe than sorry. Ji XiaoYu didn't doubt Cheng YuTang's feelings towards himself right now, but if he found out that he wasn't a human but a spiritual beast, would those feelings not be discounted?

He also remembered a line that he had heard in a dog blood idol drama previously. Basically that you should never test love, because love can't stand the test. If he really confessed, wouldn't the truth be a bit cruel to Cheng YuTang, who was an ordinary human being?

With such a tangled knot of thoughts, the pain in the bullet wound got even worse and his face turned white instantly.

Cheng YuTang saw this expression and felt both distressed and remorseful. He once again took the man gently into his arms and stroked his head like a child's. "Baby, if you don't want to, you don't have to say anything. The most important task right now is to heal up well and get better soon."
