Bab 174: Otherwise...

"Ugh…"

Mu Yuze was startled awake from his sleep as soon as he heard a grunt of pain coming from above his head. His eyes snapped open and any traces of drowsiness instantly drained away like hazy mist blown by a violent typhoon. The first thing he saw was a column of neck that was slick with perspiration. Then he heard a harsh breathing echoed loudly around his ears and perceived the tightening of the arm slung over his waist. On a closer look, they were also trembling faintly.

Alert, he immediately propped himself up to check on the man who was sleeping beside him. "Juan-gege?"

He saw that He Juan's eyes were still tightly shut and the creases of his brows were deep enough to create a canyon. His hair was damp with sweat, strands of it sticking to his face. He looked like he was in a whole lot of pain.
