Xie Jiuhan stood up from the bed and hugged Feng Qing in his arms. She had not slept for the entire night. Now that Xie Jiuhan had woken up, she could finally fall asleep in peace.
"Mm…" Feng Qing murmured in a daze.
Feeling Xie Jiuhan's strong arms, she completely let down her guard and fell asleep. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Xie Jiuhan hugged her and laid on the bed. He even posed her in the most relaxed and comfortable position.
After an unknown period of time, Feng Qing rolled over while mumbling. Xie Jiuhan's completely numb arms were finally freed. He covered Feng Qing with a blanket and entered the bathroom.
Looking at his back in the mirror, Xie Jiuhan tugged at the corners of his mouth. When his skin and flesh was cut off yesterday, he happened to have a high fever. He realized that it wasn't as painful as he imagined. Instead, ever since he woke up today, his back had been in a heart-wrenching pain.
