Xi Jian appeared at her room when it was already late afternoon. To her surprise, he was no longer in a patient's attire, but in a full suit.
"Sorry ..." He kissed Ling Yue's cheek once he was next to her. "I think that Huang will be here longer."
"He has a sudden surgery scheduled. You ... are you discharged from here? Are you really okay?"
"I'm fine. What did you do all day?" Xi Jian slipped his fingers in LingYue's hair.
"Nothing much." Ling Yue looked hesitantly. "Uhm ... You're leaving...In that case...can I leave the hospital too? I'm fine. I wanna go home."
"Don't you have to stay longer? Your wound hasn't healed yet." His fingers which spinning the tips of Ling Ling's hair slid to touch the bandages on her arms.
"But I want to go home ..."
"All right, you may go home if your doctor permits." Xi Jian relented. He shifted Ling Yue's body and placed himself next to her.
