Ji Yujin endured the pain and sat up. The wound on his waist was pulled, and blood spurted out, staining the bandage red. His lips turned pale instantly, but he didn’t care.
Now that it has come to this, he has to seek some recognition.
Ji Yujin held his face with his hands. “Chu Fengqing, why are you sad? Why did you kiss me?”
He didn’t miss any change in Chu Fengqing’s expression. He smiled and answered for him word by word: “Because you love me.”
So sure.
Chu Fengqing’s eyelashes trembled, and he slowly lowered his eyes. He caught a glimpse of the blood on Ji Yujin’s waist, then raised his eyes and looked back.
From escaping to facing, sometimes it only takes a moment of thought.
Chu Fengqing pursed his lips. Under Ji Yujin’s burning gaze, he said in a cold and soft voice, “I was thinking a few days ago, if I were to make my fake play with you real, how would I face my father, my family, my patients, and even what identity would I have in the world?”
He clenched his fists uneasily, “Ji Yujin, I’m very timid. I’m not as calm as I appear to be. I just don’t know how to express my emotions. Maybe I like you, but I can’t predict how long this relationship will last or whether it’s worth everything I give.”
Chu Fengqing’s eyes were still red. “But after you got into trouble, all my thoughts were overturned. I have been worrying too much, and I have been running away, but I don’t want to run away anymore.”
As he spoke, he reached out and took away Ji Yujin’s hand that was restraining him. He moved forward and kissed Ji Yujin’s lips lightly, but the kiss was gone as soon as it touched him.
“Yes, I love you.”
“I have three loves: the sun, the moon, and you. The sun is for the morning, the moon is for the evening, and you are for morning and evening.”
In an instant, the only sounds left in the room were the two people’s breathing.
The orange morning sun shone on the two of them, time touched them, and fell silent, leaving only dust flying.
Ji Yujin’s body stiffened slightly, and after a long while, he finally reacted.
He closed his eyes and smiled. He felt like he was in a state of bewilderment. He was actually somewhat grateful to the assassin this time. He rested his chin on Chu Fengqing’s shoulder and said, “Do you know how long I have been waiting for this day? If someone told me now that this was a dream, I would definitely kill him.”
Chu Fengqing’s face was expressionless. Perhaps because he had just cried, his eyes were bright. “It’s not a dream. If you wake up this time, let’s be together, like an ordinary couple.”
Ji Yujin’s breath was choked, ecstasy and pain pulling him apart. He felt that this was all a dream—a beautiful dream that he dared not even think about. Chu Fengqing stared into Ji Yujin’s eyes and said word by word, “Ji Yujin, I will not let you die.”
He paused and said, “I promise.”
Ji Yujin’s tense body relaxed, and he smiled and said, “I believe you.”
The two of them exchanged a few words, but Ji Yujin still couldn’t resist the strong sleepiness and fell asleep again. Chu Fengqing gently kissed him on the lips, “Go to sleep.”
He stood up and walked to the outer room. He always felt that he had missed something. Excessive blood loss should not be the symptom.
He should have seen this symptom. Half of the outer room was piled with medical and ancient books. He had people move these from the Chu Residence and the Imperial Medical in the past two days.
He began to read ancient books and look for famous physicians. The imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau would come for consultation every day. Over the next few days, Ji Yujin’s complexion became better and better, the wound on his waist began to heal, and he finally woke up one day.
Chu Fengqing was originally thin, and now his face was pointed, which made Ji Yujin feel very distressed. He just wanted to get better soon.
After a few more days, Ji Yujin was able to get out of bed and walk. Chu Fengqing finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had rescued him from the hands of the King of Hell.
After a few more days, the injury had mostly healed and was basically fine.
But Ji Yujin always had something on his mind. After he woke up completely, Chu Fengqing didn’t really mention what they said that day, and he didn’t dare to ask, for fear that it was really a dream.
That afternoon, Chu Fengqing was leaning on the small couch and taking a light nap. Ji Yujin had slept a lot in the past few days, so he held up his hands and watched him sleep.
Chu Fengqing slept very uneasily with a frown on his face. Suddenly he opened his eyes in panic. Their eyes met. Chu Fengqing was slightly stunned and then looked at the wound on his waist.
Ji Yujin comforted him, “Did you have a nightmare? Why are you so scared?”
Chu Fengqing pursed his lips and said, “En”.
“What nightmare?”
Chu Fengqing hesitated for a moment and said nothing, but the emotions in his eyes betrayed him, allowing Ji Yujin to guess that he was most likely in this dream and this nightmare was most likely because of him.
Ji Yujin poked his upper jaw with the tip of his tongue. “Qing’er, does what you said before still count?”
He hugged him and said very impudently, “Please tell me that it was not a dream.”
Chu Fengqing’s pupils shrank slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he turned around and bit Ji Yujin’s ear. “It hurts, it’s not a dream.”
Ji Yujin was amused by his serious look. The tingling in his ears made his adam apple slide. He said, “Don’t provoke me ah.”
Chu Fengqing’s eyes curved. “What will happen if I provoke you?”
“How about you try it?”
As soon as Ji Yujin finished speaking, he covered Chu Fengqing’s lips and pushed him down.
Ji Yujin’s hand touched the button of Chu Fengqing’s clothes. Chu Fengqing looked sideways slightly, a little uncomfortable, but this time he did not stop him.
Ji Yujin observed his expression and slowly moved his hand down. “Be good, open your legs.”
Chu Fengqing looked at Ji Yujin in disbelief, and his cold eyes slowly changed color.
Until the taboo place was touched, Chu Fengqing’s eyelashes trembled, and he gently pushed Ji Yujin with his hand and shouted in a hoarse voice, “Ji Yujin…”
But he didn’t know what to say, so he could only keep repeating the name.
Ji Yujin bit his lips and said, “Yes, I’m here.”
Chu Fengqing clenched the corner of his clothes, tightening his grip until his long, slender fingers turned white at the knuckles. His breathing became more and more rapid. “Cough… Don’t, don’t do this.”
Ji Yujin had sweat on his forehead. He found that Chu Fengqing seemed unable to control his breathing, and his breathing became more and more rapid and his voice became more and more rough. Ji Yujin was afraid that he would have an asthma attack.
Because of breathing, tears welled up in Chu Fengqing’s eyes again. He gritted his teeth uncomfortably.
Ji Yujin hurriedly stopped and guided him, “Be good, don’t move, take your time, and breathe slowly.”
The author has something to say:
