Lan wangji silently thanked wen qing for emerging through the hospital door at the right time. His eyes immediately averted towards the armani watch around his wrist and realised that it was time for the doctor to increase the dosage little by little.
Wei Ying had been too tired to even react to anything around him and simply went limp. With the thoughts of sleep helping him wei ying closed his eyes just to feel a burning a sensation go throughout his body.
"Calm down. Just two more hours to go. I'll send someone with an ice cap.", Wei Ying nodded and tried his best not to show his pain. The last thing he wanted was to have someone come comfort him of his daily pains.
Seeing his fiance concerned for him was the last thing in the world he wanted. Pity was the last thing he wanted to earn from someone he loved.
He knew everything about the interrogation that was happening today. He wasn't surprised when even his uncle wen and aunty Jin were called in. They were quite suspicious too. According, to the cop who was trying to find if he was alive or not wanted nothing more then to know what was going on in between these families.
Though he knew that he wasn't supposed to close his eyes, he decided to give into the darkness and fell into the deep abyss of nothing more than just silence and bittersweet memories.
"It'll be fine.", Wen Qing whispered patting his fluffed up hair.
Meanwhile,
Even, wen rouhan, of all the people in this world could feel the heat and the intensity of the questions that were shot at him. Song Li Nian, could make them feel as if they had actually committed a murder which they hadn't.
Lan Qiren being the last one to be called inside knew that he wasn't as important. Lan Qingheng Jun, was the one who truly needed to be here. He was just a replacement for him at the moment, after all, he was there throughout the years.
"Long time, huh?", Song Nian asked the man. Lan Qiren was starting think that the man had simply assumed that it was two friends catching up.
"I don't have time for petty conversations.", Lan Qiren deadpanned. His lawyers had already warned him not to give into anything if he started manipulate him-- it wasn't as if he had anything to hide.
"You aren't wrong. The richest of the richest do have their fair share of gambles to deal with.", That pissed Lan qiren off. The Lan's never did anything against the law's. If someone was at the wrong side, it was the cops who always showed their greed.
Song Nian did not bother wasting any more time and started to shoot questions at him. But, before he could start he looked lan qiren with a malicious smile with an intent not so good.
"I'm sure that you saw the news, you know what it means don't you?", Lan Qiren frowned at the snark. He Indeed knew that something much worse was coming their way.
"As of today, wei wuxian is alive in the records. So, wherever you are hiding him, you better bring him out. If I find him...things will be much worse for you."
He whispered with the malicious smile not leaving his face. He was one a good cop, but, maybe he did not want to be one right now. It was like a thirst he felt when he looked at one of the most high profile cases in their country. He wanted the boy who never died all those years ago and, destroy the ones who dares to stop him.
"Where were you the night when the accident happened?", He asked the first and started with the most common question he asked the others.
"A board meeting before, I was sworn in as the acting director.", He said truthfully, it was indeed a few months after his brother left when he was sworn in as the acting director. His nephews were yet to grow up and take over at that time.
"What was your relationship with Cangse sanren and her family?"
That was too easy.
"She studied with me and my sister in law. Our families have been friends for long.", If lied and told him that it was purely political, Song Nian would have just suspected him even more. Telling the truth unlike, what his lawyer had asked him to would only push him into an imaginary ditch he would have dug for himself.
Meanwhile,
"How bad was it?", He only heard silence from his brother and the background.
"The man's dead. They are clearing the area up. I'm afraid that it has been spread too much. Its the best if we let A'xian know.", It was too late for his brother to speak about wei ying finding about it.
Courtesy to the television present inside the hospital room, wei ying had found about the whole ordeal not long ago. What left the man shocked was how his beloved did not act to the least of panic or stress.
"I need to go.", Lan Zhan said before he disconnected from the call. Sliding his mobile phone back inside his pocket, he walked inside the room where wei ying was just getting over with his therapy.
"Can you walk?", Wen Qing asked snatching the ice beanie from wei ying's head.
Wei Ying shook his head and looked around his surroundings in a haze. He definitely couldn't walk like this. Not now atleast. All he wanted to do now was to go back home and cuddle with his boyfriend under a warm blanket.
"My head--- it hurts.", Wei Ying murmured curling up into a ball in the chair and let his hands draw circles on his hair.
"It'll be gone in a few hours.", She reassured.
"My bones hurt. My legs feel wobbly.", Wei Ying murmured softly. Within just a period of four hours, it felt like his whole world had come crashing down. He seemed to realise how sick he truly was.
He truly saw how he looked appearance wise. His hands were skinny and scrawny, just like that of a person who's dying or taking their last breaths. All he had was bones, there wasn't anything related to fat in his body.
People always called him out for having a waist and a body so small. Those were the type of people who did not know why he was in such a shape.
His family did not understand why he did not wish to go to the university and finish his studies in time either. It was all just going on as if it was a big disaster.
Wei Ying did not want a man as noble as Lan Wangji to be with for more or less. He took care of him and looked after him like he was a child. From cooking for him to making him rise awake from his slumber. Lán WangJi did it all.
And, what did he do? He felt as if he did nothing to be as contributing as Lan Zhan was.
He remembered those days when he did not have this disease, he was as lively as the facade he put up right now and was active most of the days. From baking sorts of cakes ans pastries with Lan Zhan and painting a portrait of whatever came in his mind.
Right now at the moment, he could not possibly even think of touching a pain brush let alone walk without an awkward limp.
Wei Ying knew that he was getting cured and getting better. He knew that this disease will leave him in just a matter of few months.
He just couldn't imagine how he will go back to his normal life without being a liability.
With a disease and a stalker who who had the tactics of the woman from nineteen years ago, wei ying could only hope to forget all of this and start a afresh. Without being a pain or a liability to others.
He did not possibly want to make Lan wangji look after him all over again. The guilt ate him alive.
Mayhaps, Lan Zhan would soon fall out of love and leave him?
That would be a good thing. After, that maybe he can find someone better than him and have kids of his own.
A soft cry rippled through his pale lips when he looked at himself and the screen which covered the most shocking news their country has recorded this morning.
Breaking news!
Man in his twenties killed brutally. The killer has left a message on the wall with the victims blood.
In an alarming murder case today which has the whole country in splits. The alleged murderer has left a message for their next prey.
‘My xianxian must miss his mama so much’
There was blood everywhere, in the walls and even on the floors. The message was written with the innocent man's blood.
She had killed for him. She was coming for him.
"She's coming for me.", Wei Ying whispered, a choked sob left his lips.
It felt as if an elephant was stepping on his chest to stop him from breathing. His pale hands started to shake so much that he could no longer get a hold of things around him.
He wasn't going to get killed. People around him, his loved ones are going to get killed and destroyed.
