“Fifth Master, this way.” Huang He pressed the button for the elevator, but maybe there were too many people waiting for the elevator, it didn’t come immediately.
Cen Baihe glanced at the elevator, turned and ran towards the stairs, Huang He paused, and hurriedly followed. Climbing up five floors in one breath, Huang He was worried that his master’s body would not be able to bear it. Unexpectedly, he didn’t stop until he arrived at the ward.
“Qian Qian.” Cen Baihe pushed open the door of the ward and looked at Qi Yan while panting.
“Baihe?” Qi Yan was sitting on the bed, with a bowl of chili on the table in front of him. He had a bowl of rice in his hand, and his lips were shining. He was surprised to see Cen Baihe.
“How are you?” Cen Baihe strode to the bedside and looked at him from head to toe. If it weren’t for the table blocking him, Cen Baihe would have lifted the quilt to take a look. At this moment, he had long forgotten that he had confessed to Qian Qian, and all he thought about was Qi Yan’s injury. The scene of Qi Yan being covered in blood when they were in Wangxiang Town had traumatized him. So every time he heard that Qi Yan was injured, he would feel scared.
“I’m fine,” Qi Yan swallowed the food in his mouth, “look at me, I’m fine.”
Only then did Cen Baihe notice what Qi Yan was eating, and when he saw the chili, he immediately frowned, “you’ve just recovered, you shouldn’t have spicy food. What if it upsets your stomach? Who gave you this?”
Sitting next to him pretending to be invisible, Xiang Qiang touched his nose. He couldn’t blame him. It was Master Qi who insisted on having chili, so he had no choice but to obey.
“Cough, hello Mr. Cen,” Xiang Qiang smiled awkwardly at Cen Baihe. “I’m Xiang Qiang, it’s great that you’ve returned safely.”
“Mr. Xiang, I remember you, we met several times before,” Cen Baihe shook hands with Xiang Qiang, “thank you for taking care of Qian Qian, can you explain to me what happened to him?”
“They have done a full-body examination on Master Qi. This is the report from the hospital.” Xiang Qiang handed the report to Cen Baihe, “Master Qi has no major health problems, but his body is a little weak. He will be fine in 2 days. He was in the hospital because he vomited blood, so he had to be observed for 24 hours.”
“Vomited blood?” Cen Baihe’s expression tightened, and he turned to look at Qi Yan, who was still eating the chili, “Qian Qian, what happened?”
Qian Qian put down his spoon and said, “let me finish eating this first? I can’t eat when you’re looking at me like that.”
Cen Baihe took out a handkerchief and wiped the oil from the corners of his mouth. He sighed helplessly, “do you know how worried I am when I hear you are in the hospital. Don’t hide anything from me, or I will be so worried.”
Looking at the interaction between the two, Xiang Qiang felt a little weird. He’d never seen good friends help wipe each other’s mouth.
Qi Yan raised his brows, “you were worried when you heard that I was in the hospital, what about me what I heard that you were in the hijacked plane?”
Hearing this, Cen Baihe reluctantly reached out and touched the top of Qi Yan’s head, his voice soft and lingering, “you once told me that I am very blessed, so how can anything happen to me?”
Qi Yan poked the rice in the bowl with his chopsticks. Yes, that was true. He would be safe even in such a situation. Why did he spend so much energy to ask for blessings from the gods?
But no matter how blessed he was, the situation was still very dangerous. What’s more, when the incident happened, he didn’t know if the plane had entered their country. What if the Baihe’s purple mist didn’t work well abroad?
Qi Yan tried to find a reasonable excuse for his behavior, but no matter how he thought about it, he seemed to have overreacted.
Realizing this, Qi Yan didn’t want to tell Cen Baihe because he was embarrassed. However, Xiang Qiang had already started to speak.
“Mr. Cen, Master Qi vomited blood and was sent to the hospital because of the blessing ceremony,” Xiang Qiang’s eyes lit up, “but Master Qi is so powerful that he actually summoned a dragon.”
“I even collected all 7 dragon pearls.” Qi Yan whispered.
When Cen Baihe heard the word “dragon”, he thought of the sounds he heard on the plane that sounded like dragon roars. He glanced at Qi Yan and said to Xiang Qiang, “can you tell me what happened exactly?”
Qi Yan gave Xiang Qiang a look and told him not to say anything. Unfortunately, Xiang Qiang was too excited. He thought hat Master Qi had done so much for Mr. Cen, and it would be a pity if he didn’t know about it.
After listening to Xiang Qiang’s story, Cen Baihe’s heart ached.
“Qian Qian!” Cen Baihe turned around and hugged Qi Yan, calling Qi Yan’s name aloud, “Qian Qian…”
Xiang Qiang stared at this scene, stunned. Just as he was about to speak, someone grabbed his shoulders. He looked back and saw that it was the bodyguard Mr. Cen’s bodyguard.
“Let’s give them some space.” Huang He dragged Xiang Qiang out of the door, “let’s go, I’ll bring you to Master Qi’s attending doctor.”
“But…” Before Xiang Qiang could finish speaking, he was dragged out of the ward by Huang He covering his mouth. When he turned around again, Huang He already closed the door.
“Mr. Xiang,” Huang He patted Xiang Qiang’s shoulder nicely, “you should learn how to read the room, eh?”
Xiang Qiang: ? ? ?
“Hey, the table is about to fall.” Qi Yan opened his hands and said helplessly, “It’s nothing, you don’t have to worry about me.”
“Since it’s nothing, then take me with you,” Cen Baihe let go of Qi Yan, put the table and Qi Yan’s chopsticks away, smiled and looked at Qi Yan, “stay with me forever, okay?”
Qi Yan looked around, “that seems a bit much?”
“As long as you’re willing to, it’s not too much,” Cen Baihe grabbed Qi Yan’s shoulders, looked at his face and said, “what do you say?”
“You’re already an adult, don’t act like a spoiled child,” Qi Yan touched his somewhat hot face and patted Cen Baihe’s hand on his shoulder, “Speak properly.”
He didn’t expect Cen Baihe to brazenly lean against the bed and put his head on his lap, “Qian Qian, I really thought I would never come back when he shot at me.”
Qi Yan’s expression suddenly changed, the man actually shot at Baihe? He had the urge to curse the man.
“At that moment, I didn’t think about many people, just my family, the staff in my company who depend on me, and…you.”
Qi Yan’s tense shoulders slumped. He looked down at the man who had buried his face in the quilt, like a tired bird that finally found its nest, and remained silent.
“I felt regret at that time. I regretted that I couldn’t hug my lover again, and I didn’t have the opportunity to hold his hand or kiss his forehead, and I would disappear into the vast sea without a trace.” Cen Baihe closed his eyes and recalled the incident on the plane, “my dad has other children beside him, and the employees of my company can find other jobs, but what about you if you’re alone?”
“What if your future partner is not good enough for you, or if you are lonely for the rest of your life?” Cen Baihe opened his eyes and looked up at Qi Yan, “don’t laugh at me, at that time, I really felt that I was important to you, so important that I am afraid of dying.”
“No,” Qi Yan slowly put down his hand, and his hand fell on top of Cen Baihe’s head, “I won’t laugh at you, because you are really important to me.”
Since his master passed away, no one had nagged or lectured him, until Cen Baihe appeared. He was obviously a cold person, but he took care of him so well.
He had never had a family, and thought that Cen Baihe regarded him as a brother. So when he learned that Cen Baihe had feelings for him, his first reaction was not disgust, but confused.
It was a strange feeling dating someone whom one saw as a brother.
But if he and Cen Baihe were to go their separate ways and start their own families, and that the object of Baihe’s concern would be his wife and children instead of him, he felt a little uncomfortable.
The exclusivity he wanted felt a bit strange, as he never had such thoughts about Wang Hang and the others.
He read on the Internet that the desire to possess someone was the beginning of romance.
“If I’m important to you, let’s get together?” After experiencing this incident, Cen Baihe understood that to pursue love was to be shameless. He had to strike while the iron was hot, and proceed with confidence.
Humans live only a few decades, there is not much time to spend with one’s loved ones.
Qi Yan didn’t stop stroking Cen Baihe’s hair, but he gradually started pinching the tip of his ear. Cen Baihe’s ears were warm and soft, completely different from his usual indifferent personality. Qi Yan looked down at Cen Baihe’s red ears, “we are of the same sex, what does your family think?”
Cen Baihe allowed Qian Qian to pinch his ears, but the more he pinched him, the more he felt ticklish, “my family won’t object, that doesn’t matter!”
Qi Yan chuckled, “really?”
This laughter made Cen Baihe lost his self-control. He sat up and threw Qi Yan on the bed, and whispered in his ear, “Qian Qian, sometimes I really want to put you in my pocket and hold you in the palm of my hand. I want to kiss you, lick you and hold you every day, and I won’t let you take a step away from me.”
Qi Yan sighed in his heart. He did not expect Baihe to have such a kink.
But it would be nice if he could be put it in his pocket, at least he didn’t have to walk and could sleep and eat whenever he wanted.
“Baihe! What are you doing?!” Second Miss Cen’s sharp voice sounded from the door.
Qi Yan raised his eyebrows. So his family didn’t object?
Cen Baihe: …
