Xian’s POV:

I just woke up a couple of hours ago at the sight of my dada and A-Chang being all over the place and soon after a lot of doctors and nurses were standing next to me as bees next to a hive.

Upon my inquiry was told that I’ve been asleep for week and that shocked me, because as far as I could tell I only had a small dream about chatting with Yao gege and mummy before I woke up. But, since dad and Chang showed me the date and Chang explained, I made peace with the fact that was being told that very moment.

I was getting hungry and I wanted to see jiejie, especially after gege mentioned her in my dreams, I haven’t seen her for nearly a month and that was the longest that we’d stayed apart so I whined to my father to call jiejie over.

After 30 minutes of A-Chang’s foolish nagging and an intense headache jiejie showed up, I felt so bad when she held me crying, but her hug was as warm as ever making me feel save. I know I might be a grown man but for jiejie and A-Chang I was still a kind, maybe even just 3 years old for the way they treated me.

After jiejie was done with her crying I couldn’t help but to tell her how hungry I was that very moment and I wanted to eat something. It was not just that I was hungry but that I missed my jiejie’s cooking so much. After listening to my demand, jiejie told me that she’ll get me something and took A-Chang with her.

Well honestly speaking, I wanted them to leave me for a while, since I’ve started feeling pain all over my body and especially around my chest and leg that seemed to have been fractured as the doctor’s concluded.

And there was the thought of WangJi getting hurt that I couldn’t shake of, I wanted to see him right now I wanted to make sure he was perfectly fine and I wanted to ask him how his life was after we won the stupid case. There was so much for me to ask but on top of that I just wanted to see him, safe and sound, and maybe I wanted to hold him as well…

I was rifting in my thoughts when someone came in my room, but, I was shocked to see it was WangJi who just retreated his steps and hit the door with his back, his expressions were as if he saw a ghost.

“WangJi… WangJi are you okay? Are you hurt?...”

I was shocked to see WangJi in such dismissal and I wanted to get up and go to him to check if he was alright but my body gave up on me as soon as I sat up and moved my blanket as I fell back to my old place.

“Xian… Xian… Are you ok? Do you want me to call the doctors for you?” I could see WangJi who just rushed towards me and now was standing in front of me with a frowned face

“No… Don’t call anyone, I am perfectly fine…” I answered trying to calm down this beautiful man standing in front of my eyes.

“Bullshit! If you were perfectly fine then you wouldn’t be sleeping for 3 weeks in a row.” I was beyond shocked to see that his eyes have a red tint in them

“WangJi… I’m really fine, Trust me…” I said trying to reach out my hand to touch his face, I really wanted to touch him, maybe it was the sleep or maybe the medicines somehow triggered my lust hormones if there is such a thing in my body because I don’t understand why my body was doing that to me.

“Why did you do that Xian?” I was shocked at how he was now sitting beside me on my bed and holding on to my hand that was reaching out for him

“WangJi…” I was cut off by him before I could say anything apart from his name.

“I was scared Xian, I was so scared of losing you… What was I supposed to do if hadn’t woken up…” And I was so busy trying to process his worry for me and the tears in his eyes, when he suddenly held me.
