CHAPTER 986: CHAPTER 986: DAMN DEMON

The drunkard couldn’t help but laugh, this time he finally agreed, "...Okay."

As long as I can go back this time, I will definitely be with you properly from now on.

Hearing the drunkard finally agree, Qing Yi’s heart was finally not so anxious.

Both of them fell silent, after a while, Qing Yi spoke, "...Rest early, take care of yourself, remember to eat three meals a day, the weather is cold, remember to wear more layers, remember to cover yourself with a blanket when you sleep at night, your stomach isn’t good, don’t drink cold water, don’t eat cold meals, don’t drink alcohol, don’t eat spicy food, if you can’t wash clothes, just buy more to change into..."

Listening to Qing Yi’s string of reminders, the drunkard felt something stuck in his throat and couldn’t say a word, tears flowing continuously.

"...I’ll wait for you to come back."

That was the last thing Qing Yi said, the drunkard couldn’t hold on, and hung up the phone soon after Qing Yi finished speaking.

He looked at the glaringly white ceiling, smelled the heavy scent of disinfectant in the air, felt the coldness of the room, helpless and despaired, he couldn’t help but cry out again.

He wanted to tell Qing Yi that he was in pain, that he was scared, but he couldn’t.

Qing Yi stood where he was, quietly looking at the disconnected phone, until the phone’s screen went black, quite a while later, he dazedly returned to the car.

He was exhausted, the unease and fear in his heart remained, making him lose his bearings.

With both hands on the steering wheel, Qing Yi slowly bent over, resting his head against the wheel.

After four and a half years of devotion, thinking he would never get a response, he never expected such a big surprise tonight.

Was it a surprise?

No, he couldn’t feel happy at all right now, the fear in his heart completely overwhelming everything, all he felt now was fear, nothing but fear.

The car window was only half-closed, cold wind kept pouring in, his body shivering slightly from the cold, yet he didn’t even have the energy to close the window.

Qing Yi very much wanted to sleep, because falling asleep would stop his mind from wandering.

But even though he was exhausted, he simply couldn’t fall asleep.

——

"Hey, you silly kid."

Feng Liyan stood at the bathroom door with arms crossed, leaning against the door frame, a smile on his lips, teasingly raising an eyebrow at the person in white brushing his teeth at the sink.

The person in white turned back, glanced at Feng Liyan, and couldn’t help but curse inwardly: Damn demon.

"What?!"

The person in white mumbled, the tone not good, full of resentment.

He wondered in his mind how he was silly, why he always got called silly kid.

"Are you going to work later?" Feng Liyan asked.

"Yeah, do you need something?" The person in white replied while brushing, still with a bad attitude.

Seeing the clearly uninterested person in white, Feng Liyan chuckled to himself.

You don’t have to guess, Feng Liyan must’ve scared him for fun again last night.

Whoever let this silly kid not take care of himself, even allowed others to scrub his back, and called him an old antique.

Feng Liyan got a bit annoyed at the memory, used a spell to suddenly open the tightly shut door last night.

Scared the person in white out of his wits.

He kept urging the person in white to go shut the door, almost making the person in white fight with him.

"I want to go to the pharmacy... the drugstore to buy some medicine, don’t know the way, you can take me there."

"Buy medicine? What’s wrong with you?" The person in white looked at him curiously.

He seemed so lively, didn’t look sick.

"I’m buying some tonic for Xiao’ai, she’s physically weak."

The person in white glanced at him, reluctantly said, "I can drop you off on the way."

"After buying, you have to take me back as well."

The person in white immediately frowned, after spitting out the foam and rinsing his mouth, he said to Feng Liyan, "I have to go to work too, if you don’t know the way, take a cab back yourself."
