Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen

Tang Xuan had lost too much blood and passed away before the 120¹ arrived. Though Su Yuyang had been injured by Tang Xuan’s knife, the wound wasn’t deep and he wasn’t incapacitated. Ling Miao was the only one who remained unconscious in the hospital.

The doctor said that Ling Miao had suffered a shock, which was why he was unconscious.

As for what shock Ling Miao had received, Su Yuyang was uncertain. Before Tang Xuan killed himself, he had said to Ling Miao, “Ling Miao, do you remember what you said to me last night?” What had Ling Miao said to Tang Xuan?

Two days had passed since they had rescued Ling Miao. These few days, Su Yuyang had kept vigil by Ling Miao’s bedside. In his free time he took out his phone and watched a video.

It was the video Ling Miao and Feng Ji had recorded at the Authors’ Gathering.

“Hey, Su Yuyang.”

At this point in the video, the screen was all black. It was when Ling Miao had rushed onstage. Su Yuyang pressed pause and said to the unconscious Ling Miao, “Xiao Miao, when you rushed up onstage it gave me a huge fright. I thought—Yan Li and I singing a duet and flirting with each other was something you encouraged, so how could you suddenly get mad?”

Ling Miao didn’t respond. His eyes were tightly shut and he slept soundly.

Su Yuyang gazed at Ling Miao. After a long time had passed and Ling Miao still hadn’t responded, he continued the video. A commotion happened, then the video came up in color. Going by the angle, the videographer had switched their filming angle from the side view to the front view.

“Why did you come?” Su Yuyang asked in a panic.

Ling Miao crooked his finger indicating to Su Yuyang to lower his head. Su Yuyang complied. Ling Miao caught hold of Su Yuyang’s head and presented his lips.

“Wahh—”

“Fuck, what’s all this?”

“The Great Shu’s boyfriend has appeared?”

……

……

Su Yuyang paused the video again and grimaced. “Xiao Miao, you suddenly kissed me. If my heart weren’t strong, I’d have fainted.”

“If you faint, I won’t take care of you,” Feng Ji said wryly.

Su Yuyang looked up to see his good friend standing in the doorway. Then he looked back down to check the time. It was lunchtime.

Su Yuyang hadn’t left the ward in the past few days. His meals were all brought by Feng Ji and An Yan. Now Feng Ji held the food out near Su Yuyang’s hand. Su Yuyang took it and placed it on the cabinet to one side. Seeing this, Feng Ji sighed.

“Where’s An Yan?” Su Yuyang looked around and didn’t see Feng Ji’s shadow.

At the mention of An Yan, Feng Ji wilted like an eggplant in frost. He gave a long sigh and complained: “Future mother-in-law is sick. Xiao An got a call and went home. It’ll probably be a week before I see him. Ah, my tragic life.”

“Shut up.” Su Yuyang rolled his eyes at Feng Ji. “At least your Xiao An is still alive and kicking, unlike…” Su Yuyang’s eyes darkened. He looked at Ling Miao and said slowly, “Unlike Ling Miao, who just lies there.”

Feng Ji patted Su Yuyang’s shoulder in encouragement. “Everything will get better. What did the doctor say?”

Su Yuyang shook his head. “The same thing again.”

“What exactly was the shock Ling Miao received?” Feng Ji asked in confusion.
