She raced into the hospital, almost slipping in her heels as she quickly stopped at the reception area. She immediately demanded to know where the patient by the name of Gao Tian Yu was. The nurse explained that there were at least fifty Gao Tian Yu's in the hospital, so asked for his age.
"29 years old," she answered in a panic.
"The doctor's checking on him now in Room 251," the nurse said. "May I know how what is your connection to him?"
"I'm his family," she said without a second thought, and quickly ran into the elevator before the nurse could stop her.
"Wait, miss!" The nurse called after her. "The system was lagging earlier, and there's actually another Gao Tian Yu aged 29 in Room 520 that just showed up on the list after a refresh!"
She observed that the patient in Room 251 was in critical condition, and was strapped on a life support machine, appearing to be in a comatose condition. Her heart cried out for him, realising he may or may not be able to hear all those words she wanted to say to him. A multitude of emotions were clouding her mind.
How could she have been so selfish? She had wanted to protect herself and her feelings, but she had not considered his...
When he had done so much in the last one month to prove his love for her, but she had just brushed him off and acted like she just wanted him for her physical needs..
She hadn't expected him to have run into an accident while he was on vacation and assumed the video was true...
She recalled a quote she had read online, "Tell your loved ones you love them before it's too late." Was it simply too late? Did she have another chance to tell him how she felt, before she lost him forever?
And then suddenly images replayed in her mind. They weren't images of her and Tian Yu, they were images of their past lifetime, the same dreamscape she had seen in her own dreams. She saw the winged man clearly, with Tian Yu's face. He was angry and in pain. His words were clearly audible to her now. He had loved that 'her'. He had cut off the seasons and almost killed those who caused her death. All for her. Her heart throbbed.
If she was that 'her', did it mean that they were reborn in this lifetime to have another chance at love?
Tian Yu had told her not long ago, that if they were meant to be, then nothing would separate them. He had believed that his departure was a test for their love, but he had not expected that she was actually waiting for him all these years, as everytime he tried to look for her, it happened that she was with Su Mo. Like how she misunderstood him to be with Yuwen, he had misunderstood her to be with Su Mo. That had been why he had not been courageous enough to approach her for the last three years that he was traveling in and out of N City.
Meanwhile, Tian Yu was lying on the patient bed considering that the minor accident that he had just encountered, was in fact a blessing in disguise. Zhi Xun didn't know that since fate had allowed them to reunite in Bangkok, he had taken all these odd jobs for him to raise some money for their wedding. Though he had made some money and restored his parents' companies, he felt that wasn't enough for Zhi Xun. She was now living the life of the elite group in society, and if she accepted his impending proposal she deserved the most comfortable life he could give her. He had even considered taking a high risk job like working illegally in a construction site with a dodgy contractor or deep-sea diving, that could have allowed him to earn quick cash albeit the accompanying risks.If not for the accident, he would have already gone on the high risk job.
Zhi Xun walked into the room with a pouty face. She had just been misunderstood by the family of the patient in Room 251, to be a swindler that had just broke down in front of the room in an attempt to con them into giving her money. Fortunately, the nurse from reception earlier had came to her rescue and escorted her to the correct room.
She came into the room to find him coughing into a handkerchief which had been stained red from an earlier meal, and jumped to conclusions that he had just expelled blood from his cough. Rushing into the room at lightning speed, she quickly grabbed his hand and squatted beside him.
"I thought that I lost you," she said. He watched the tears in her eyes, and consoled her with a pat on her back. "If it was that serious, you would have heard from the ambulance, not my co-workers. You're so silly, Xiao Xun."
She planted a kiss on his forehead. "At least you are okay now. What happened?"
"It was just too humid and stuffy in that room," he explained. "I got dizzy and fell off a scaffold as I was climbing down. It wasn't very high since I was halfway down, so I just sprained my ankle. But because of my health condition, they asked me to stay to be checked. I need to stay the night for observation. Well, basically because it's already seven now, so they want me to stay overnight and discharge me early tomorrow morning."
"What about the call earlier? Your co-worker sounded in a panic."
"That Addie is a freak," he laughed. "He panics at everything from spiders to Beetles."
"Beetles?"
"Volkswagen Beetles."
"Oh."
"Do you know women also freak him out?" Tian Yu asked. "Basically, everything freaks him out. So don't take him seriously."
"Uh," Zhi Xun tried her best to smile at the fact he was trying to lighten up the mood. "Since your ankle is sprained and in a bandage, could you at least stay away from all these odd jobs for now?"
"Well, I have no choice, do I?" Tian Yu replied. "I can't do any menial tasks when my ankle is sprained, can I? It's up to someone to take care of me."
She blushed at his teasing words. "Er...okay.. I guess I can..."
"I meant my buddy. A dude."
She pouted. "You were teasing me!"
"Okay, I apologise, my dear Xiao Xun." She turned away from him childishly. "I don't care, you better compensate me."
He caught hold of her by her shoulders, and spun her around with his arms to face him. Forgetting she was in her heels, she broke free from his grip, only to trip and fall forward onto his lap.
"Fortunately my lap is not injured," he said with a laugh, before kissing her uncontrollably and passionately. She gave in to him, allowing his tongue to explore her mouth deeper before returning the same action with her tongue. His adventuresome fingers slipped into her skirt, rousing her with some strokes to her juicy thighs.
"We probably should stop before the nurse comes," Zhi Xun said after fifteen minutes of passionate kissing and touching.
"Excuses, Xiao Xun," he teased. "I know you're already wet just from the kissing and touching."
She scowled. Ten minutes later the nurse arrived, and Zhi Xun left to sign the administrative papers for his admission to the hospital.
Tian Yu was swiping on his smartphone when she returned. "It's getting late," he said. "Shouldn't you go home and have a rest?"
"I'll stay with you," she said.
"Is it allowed?" Tian Yu asked. "From what I've recalled, this hospital is rather strict with its rules and doesn't allow visitors past eight-thirty."
"Nothing daunts Huo Zhi Xun," Zhi Xun laughed. "I've made arrangements with my contacts. Easy as pie." She slipped under the blanket beside him. "It's easier this way. In case you need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night."
Tian Yu shrugged. "As you like. If you don't find it too uncomfortable sharing a bed."
"Don't we already?" she responded. They had been sleeping together every other day for a couple of weeks after they had returned from Bangkok, but while they were in Bangkok they had been sexually active with each other every night, particularly when they were in the castle for five days straight, having driven each other wild with desire.
"What I mean is, a narrow patient bed," he said, giving her a sarcastic look.
"Actually, I have something to tell you." How should she say it? That she still loved him, but wanted to give them time.
"What is it?" he asked. "Are you needy right now?"
She laughed. "No, not that. It's just that...I thought...you were that patient in Room 251."
He laughed back. "That nurse is really something. His name isn't even close to Gao Tian Yu. His name is Tian Yugao!"
"Oh, uh." She looked nervous. "What I want to say is... I still.. have feelings for you...It's just I..."
He silenced her by placing his fingers on her mouth, and whispered softly in her ear, "Not now. Another two months more, and I will prove it to you how much I love you. Time will tell, you just have to trust me." He was actually glad to know she was finally admitting that she still loved him, although he had already guessed that from the hints she had left in her phone and in her apartment.
She kissed him furiously, and thought in her heart how much she loved him.
..................................................................
They were woken by the footsteps of the nurse in the room in the morning, and she was embarrassed by how shamelessly she was sleeping entwined with Tian Yu. As she got off the bed, she felt something missing from her chest, and glared at Tian Yu as he grinned mischievously. He was probably thinking that he would be pardoned for his crime easily because he was injured.
"You're going to get it later," she hissed as she left the room to arrange for Tian Yu's discharge from the hospital. The nurse took a measurement of Tian Yu's vitals and promptly left the room, uninterested in what she assumed to be a lover's quarrel.
"Give it back," she said as soon as they were ready to leave the hospital.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"My bra!" she whispered. "I know you have it."
"Since when do you wear bras to bed?" he teased. "I'm confiscating it."
She held up a partially translucent blouse, which she was planning to wear, to his dismay. "Do you want me to go around braless and tempt other men?" she retorted, and he handed her the item he was hiding under his pillow. They had a change of clothes and departed the hospital, not saying a single word during the journey.
She aided him in entering her apartment carefully, as he struggled on the crutches provided by the hospital, and in getting up her bed.
"Since you've already had your patient meal, I suppose you aren't hungry," she said, switching to her bossy attitude. "Now, it's time for your punishment for what you did back there."
"Like what?" he rolled his eyes at her and played with his tongue.
"You're teasing me again, aren't you?" she retorted in an annoyed tone. "Ah, you're so getting it."
"What am I getting?" he feigned ignorance. She knew he was acting that way because he was injured, so she had no reason to blame him or be angry with him for long.
She slipped out of her outfit in a seductive way, and rolled down his pants so they were both in their underwear. "You know it," she said.
"Well, my ankle is sprained. I don't think I can mount you and satisfy you the way you want," he said.
"Oh yes, you can," she smiled at him sweetly. "But first, revenge is sweet. For what happened at the hospital."
She pulled down his boxers, then began rubbing and arousing his member. She continued touching and seducing him erotically until he was burning with desperation. Then she slid him inside her and rode him violently, feeling the pull of his erect member inside her cavity. He responded by thrusting into her as hard as he could. The sex was so strong, but he sensed it and pulled out before he released inside her.
"I don't see how pleasuring me is punishment," he said with a satisfied look. "Even if you did it a hundred times to me, it wouldn't serve as punishment."
She looked a bit flustered, and then said defensively, "Today you will be enslaved to me to serve me as my bidding."
He held her tight to him, with her head on his chest and whispered in her ear, "You know that I want more than that. I want to have a family with you and care for you for the rest of your life. But I'll do anything you want for now. Believe that love does wonders." Upon hearing his words, she got up and planted a kiss on his lips.
He responded with a series of soft and caring kisses, caressing her face tenderly with his lips as she considered the weight of his words. Family? It had been such a long time since she had heard that word. Had she heard him wrong? 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLebpvDA9Xw
