Warm arm across his stomach with feathery hairs brushing his neck yibo silenced his movements concentrating more to the beating of heart of the other.
His eyes met with his palms all clean, tied with another bandage. The pain has stilled probably thanks to the medicine.
"How do you feel now?"
Shock spread all over his body.
Sleeping one bed with Xiao.
"I thought should keep you company even if you didn't want to."
It feels too nice.
"So, how do you feel now?" Prompts again the question. Playing with his hairs.
"Satisfied" yibo closes his eyes then turns facing him.
"I feel fine. More okay, you are here with me." Pulling him much closer. "Did you have lunch?"
"Do you usually sleep like this? Or because you overload yourself and forget to rest... it's nine already."
"Night already?"
"Mn. Which means it's time for dinner. You should have something already." Smiling at yibo's bratty confusion.
"Let me first check on you...
"Jun did everything already. I had my drip here beside you."
"And Jun kept coming in Everytime to check on you?"
"Mn. Why?" Clueless.
"It'll be hell for me." Sighing in defeat.
"Aaaaa... He said to worry for nothing. You'll be safe from teasers." Followed by a chuckle. "By the way, you father passed by." Pink blush appears on his face.
"My father!"
"Mn. He was here. Stayed for a bit and left. Rules he said earlier are, no working until you recover. He said you should even take a vacation if that's possible." Looking all red as if he is drunk. "He also said, you should enjoy too. He was happy seeing you having a human blanket hugging you all protectively. That you should bring it home for him to see if it has a good warmth." Hiding his face on his chest.
"My father said that too?" Grinning stupidly.
"Mn."
"Mr Wang saw you hugging me."
"Mn."
"Let me guess... you forbade him to come close to me."
"How could i prohibit a father to check over his son?" Trying to glance at yibo. "What are you smirking for!" Slapping his chest.
"I'm just happy." Kissing him. "But how is your body, medicine role, is it giving you more relief?"
"It is." Smiling. "I'll always be grateful. Someday should thank your father nicely."
"That'll be good." Pocking his nose.
"Last meal is waiting for you." Stretching his arm for Yibo to join him out.
"Yes sir!" Saluting.
"What is that for?" Chuckling.
"I don't know! Do i?"
Happily they step out of the room to the ground floor for dinner.
....
"Honey, how do you feel now?"
"I'm fine. You don't have to worry." Tiredly doctor Kang declares. "Wife, I'm sorry. I made you worried." Searching for her palm. "But I needed to do something that could save my niece. And I think I did the right thing. I just hid his all this fact from you. I'm genuinely sorry."
"Don't apologize. I understand you very much."
"Yibo was hurt. How is he?"
"He is fine. Took a leave." Smiling a bit. "It was yesterday he called me aunt."
"Are you that happy?"
"You can't measure my happiness." Happiness is written in capital letters over her face.
"I don't know what would be Yiren's next move. Obviously her daughter didn't show up yet. Where could that child be?"
"Don't force yourself. It's okay." Soothing his chest. "You have every right to worry about her but not now. Control... I don't want to lose you."
"I don't want to worry you. I'll focus on my health."
"Jun will be here to check on you." Mr Kang only nods.
UNIQUE BLAST BAR.
People performing karaoke, a dance floor with perfect hourly paid dancers, but there is also a disco in the huge hall within the building. Mina, at the far dark angle, alone with a glass of a strong Serengeti, two down, with her huge glass, foam forming on top.
Wasted can be a good word for her. Random music playing. She is just her.
"Why can't money buy! Everything! Why?" Looking beside her. "Why?" Simply directing the question to anyone who can hear her. "I don't get it actually... I love money, you do?"
The stranger turns to stare at her.
"Everyone loves money. But some can be possessed with it too." Taking a sip. "There must be it's limit on how you use it, your point of view of how you see it. Money can cause a lot of regrets too? Why, did you do something?" Turning his attention towards Mina.
"I hate being poor, I love money...
"More than the ones around you? Would you abandon everyone for money? What about those who sacrificed everything for you? The ones who were there for you when you needed someone? Money can't give you everything? Money without happiness is useless, money without love is useless, money can't buy your closed ones. It's all useless with money."
"But...
"I have regrets you know? I abandoned everyone because of money! Can you understand that? It hurt more when no one took me in the most I needed them, because I didn't see their value in front of money. I don't know what happened with you but it's not late. Whatever you did because of wealth, there is still time for you to come around. Either you repent, or change your perspective on what you believe. You'll remember these words I'm sure."
The moment he finished speaking, Mina is on tears.
"Why crying?" The ones around turn their heads towards them.
"I regret..." Sobs out the words. Wailing in a drunken state. "I re-gret....
"Can you please lower your voice?" Sighing deeply.
Dragging the drunk Mina is another great task. She kept stopping everywhere to puke nothing. Stopped everyone begging them to read her lucky charm in life. Spoke bullshit to everyone who passed her.
And now him having to carry her to the bus stop is a bit hard. Because he doesn't know if she has her private transport or so, though her appearance spoke wealthy. Swallowing every slap she could give his head, pull his hairs, ears. Trying to sit while being carried.
"Can you please be still! You are giving me a hard time here!" Shouts the guy.
"Hong San! Don't shout at me!" Slapping his head. "You don't love me?" Sniffling.
"What are you talking about? Lady!" Everyone watching them.
"But I love you?" Crying. "Take me to Hong San, I want may (my) bofriend (boyfriend)." Wailing more.
"That's what you should've told me from the start! Where is your boyfriend's house." Stoping a taxi. "And what kind of a guy cares less for her girlfriend?" Shaking his head.

"Yibo, I heard uncle will be coming here? To do what?" Jun barges in yibo's office.
"There will be a board meeting soon." Taking off his coat.
It took him only few days to get back to work. Staying home has never been his facade ever since he started to work.
"I see? Yibo, I heard a patient died? What was troubling him?"
"Leukemia. And it was diagnosed late which of course he got treatment late." Slamming his tired body swiveling around.
"How about his family?"
"They've started processes already." Closing his eyes. "He left behind three kids from poor family planning and his wife."
"That's bad?" They only stare each other.
At the lobby Mr Wang comes in joined with his team (board of directors) walking towards the elevators.
"You finally made your mind. I don't think it's time already, you need to monitor them. And if it is to hand the hospital then it should be your daughter, isn't it?" One of the man points out.
"So what if she is the first born of the family, what we search here is the competence of work. Even yibo can be good at handling the hospital-
"Also, thanks to him, the new established department is doing good. Isn't that enough to make us chose what's for the best."
Entering the meeting hall, Mr Wang in silence and the head of today's meeting stares at everyone as they chatter. His two children aren't here which he hopes high for her daughter to be here.
"Greetings elders." Yibo greets after entering.
"Oh! Yibo is here. Look how grown-up you have become. Welcome." Laughing after.
"Thank you." Smiling a bit he goes to an empty sit that's from his father's right.
"Has you sister, called you?"
"No father. I haven't heard from her ever since that incident." Hiding the fact she came to threaten him.
"I think we should start our dialogue....
San's house.
She can hear someone calling her but it's too unrealistic. The headache creeping slowly, Flattering her eyes open.
"Where I'm I?" Looking at the ceiling.
"You are finally awake." San sits beside her with a glass of melon drink.
"San? What i'm i, i mean, who brought me back yesterday?" She asks.
"First drink this...
"The meeting!" Getting out of bed.
"Your brother came here and said it was nothing big but the same discussion." Hearing this made her stop.
"Yibo came here?"
"Yeah. He is also the one who made for you this drink before leaving. You must drink it. Obviously he would've called me but he didn't have my number nor he couldn't reach you. So after the meeting he came directly here."
Sitting back on the bed.
"He just looks fine. Why do you hate him this much?"
Everyone loves money, but it can be possessed too.
Among all the things that stranger said to him, this haunted her mind a lot.
"Some Samaritan brought back yesterday if that's troubling you." Still reading her. "You shouldn't get drunk like that, especially when you are a lady. Other strangers are not kind like him. Where is your car, you should rest while i go pick it."
"I left it at the bar i went." Staring at San.
"Rest. I'll be back." Covering her nicely San left the house.
When she opened her phone there was yibo's missed calls, none from his father. It would have been few from her uncle but he is sick on bed. And there is a message.
Hope you get well soon.
"This boy. What is he made with, With all the harsh treatment?" Feeling like crying but refrain herself.
Yibo who's driving back home his facade that's haggard right now, a lot revolves his mind. The meeting went fine but his father wasn't satisfied, he wasn't happy.
Yibo knows clearly that his father's choice is him. But the board members did the votes, which of course many like Mina. Few like yibo. And the most agenda is, Mina watched over the hospital for a long since she stated following her father's traits and yibo of course he's completing five months since he started working over the hospital, so why should he take over the hospital?
Honks were heard behind him. That's when he realized the traffic jam is gone and it's their turn to drive. He sped away but still his mind is all jammed.
Two days alas for them to know who will take over such huge responsibilities. Who will make sure the hospital would be a better place for the sick ones.
This concludes that yibo is greatly satisfied with the fact of his sister handling the hospital. For one-way he'll manage to talk her out and be a good example. Leaving behind all her deeds because they won't be needed anymore.
His sister always thought ill of him, he was fine.
He was never prepared to take over a huge responsibility which this is for the best.
What will he do to make his sister come around. She needs to get on father's side.
But also what should he do to make his father go on with the votes say.
If they are both impossible, he'll do his way.
Because he is yibo.
