He Bai now was lying in bed and staring at the ceiling, the scene where he and Di Qiuhe talked on the phone before he was injured on the battlefield kept flashing across his mind. Soon he had a headache from that and he cringed his body.
It was that twenty three year old Di Qiuhe who he had fell in love with, this Di Qiuhe was not exactly the same person. He didn’t understand why God played such a cruel joke on him.
He kept murmuring Childish Di in his dream that night.
Tears streamed down on his cheeks, he didn’t know what he could do about the situation, he missed his Childish Di and their sweet place called home, but he didn’t know whether he could see his Childish Di any more.
He heard the door when he was falling asleep, he tried to open his eyes, but exhaustion took the upper hand. He felt a warm touch on his forehead, then he fell asleep.
He Bai woke up in Di Qiuhe’s arms the next morning, it took him a solid minute to realize what was going on. He sprang from the bed and pointed at Di Qiuhe, “You! How very dare you!” with that he threw a pillow at this Di Qiuhe who brazenly sneaked into his room.
Di Qiuhe woke up by He Bai’s tantrum, he didn’t defend himself or anything, he just asked, “You are awake? What do you feel like for breakfast? Some buns with soy milk? Or fish porridge?”
Familiar tone, familiar menu… …
He Bai looked around to see which Qiuhe he was talking to.
Ten minutes later, breakfast was served. He Bai looked underwhelmed by what Di Qiuhe served.
Di Qiuhe asked with concern, “You don’t like it?”
He Bai squinted at Di Qiuhe and said, “I thought you would be cooking, who knows you just ordered in.”
Di Qiuhe didn’t expect how straightforward He Bai could be, he tried to collect himself and replied, “It’s kind of late today, but I will cook you some tomorrow if you prefer homemade breakfast.”
“All right then.” He Bai took a glimpse at Di Qiuhe and murmured, “I will cook you a steak dinner tonight to return your kindness.”
Di Qiuhe raised his head and smiled, “Thank you, that sounds great.”
Xing Shaofeng arrived at Di Qiuhe’s two days later, he surely offered a lot of help in An Xixi’s case, Xing Shaofeng and Di Qiuhe got along well, He Bai didn’t bother to ask them about the updates, he knew the boys got it.
One week later, An Xixi confessed it was Di Chunhua who was behind the scene; two weeks later, the truth of Di Chunhua’s birth was covered by media and Qin Family’s business took a hit from that; three weeks later, the story of Qin Li being a home wrecker was covered and An Xixi convinced her father to disclose the fact that Qin Mingqiang asked him and his colleagues to poison his competitors; one month later, Di Xiasong was found out of murdering Fan Da; two months later, Di Bian and Qin Li both were thrown into jail… …
Things were going great, but He Bai suddenly fell into a coma.
Di Qiuhe rushed into the hospital to check on He Bai as soon as Xing Shaofeng told him the news.
No one could find out why He Bai fell into a coma, not even the best doctors.
This wasn’t the first time that He Bai fell into a coma in this world, but he managed to wake up pretty soon every time. And every time he woke up, he would tell Di Qiuhe more information in the other world.
But his coma lasted longer and longer, that made Di Qiuhe anxious.
This was the sixth time that He Bai fell into a coma, it didn’t look well.
Di Qiuhe now was sitting at He Bai’s bed, he touched He Bai’s hand and said, “I’m sorry, I know I’m not good enough for you so you are going back to see him in your dream, but I’m trying, I’m trying so hard.”
That too Xing Shaofeng by surprise, he looked Di Qiuhe with his eyes wide open.
“Bai! Wake up now!”
Who would knew it actually worked, He Bai opened his eyes suddenly and looked at Di Qiuhe.
Di Qiuhe was overjoyed, he looked at He Bai with his eyes sparkling, but he tried to act normal, he touched He Bai’s fever to make sure he wasn’t in a fever and asked him, “Are you feeling all right? Are you thirsty? Do you want water?”
Knowing he was still in the other world, He Bai felt sad, even though this mature version of Di Qiuhe was still as attractive and handsome as the Di Qiuhe in his mind, he simply suppressed his emotions and cracked a smile, “Sorry that I have worried you again, how long have I been in a coma for this time?”
Di Qiuhe saw He Bai’s eyes dimmed, but he still smiled at He Bai and replied, “Not very long, the doctor says it might be stress that has triggered the coma, do you feel like a trip soon? How about D Country? I know there’s a great flower sea in a mountain there.”
He Bai didn’t have the heart to say no, he nodded with a smile.
He Bai had never fallen into coma, he visited the flower sea with Di Qiuhe, the two took so many photos in that beautiful country.
Seeing this gentle and handsome Di Qiuhe from his lense, He Bai put down his camera and hugged Di Qiuhe for the first time since he told Di Qiuhe about his “dream”.
