Chapter 597 - WOLF-LIKE EYES
Chapter 597 - WOLF-LIKE EYES
Three weeks later…
Shun opened his eyes and looked at the bright white ceiling. He did not feel a sense of panic. It was like he was waking up after a long and restful sleep. At least, he felt calm for a moment until he realised he did not know where he was.
However, after a brief period of confusion, he realised that he was in a hospital.
He broke free from his daze and sat up on the bed. His body felt stiff and weak, and his mouth was dry. Unfortunately, he could not find water at the side of the bed. He scoffed at the poor service in the hospital.
How had he ended up in the hospital anyway?
He could not recall what happened before he woke up on this bed in the hospital. In fact, his mind felt a little strange. He did not know how to describe it. But he could not figure out where the sense of weirdness was coming from.
Shun did not like the strangeness.
Without another thought, he decided to pull out the needle in his arm. Once he did, he intended to find the director of the hospital to complain about the poor service. Perhaps, he could get someone person fired. It might improve his mood.
Then, he would leave the place without looking back.
"Don't do that." A voice came from the door.
Shun looked up and met the eyes of a handsome man. He looked like a prince, perhaps because of the gentle light flowing from the hallway behind him. If it weren't for his tired and weary appearance, he might have looked perfect.
For a moment, Shun was stunned and stopped pulling on the needle in his arm. But after a brief instance, he broke free of the spell. He did not know why he was staring at that man, regardless of how good-looking he was.
And he was not even that great.
He looked like a total fake. Despite his outward refined appearance, Shun felt like he was not a good person. The way his eyes looked at him was too intense. It was like the stranger wanted to swallow him up.
That man was definitely a wolf in sheepskin.
"I can do whatever I want," Shun said rebelliously and started fiddling with his IV connection again.
He could not figure out how to pull out the needle without hurting himself, but he managed to disconnect the bag and the tube connecting to the cannula. The fluid in the disconnected tube started leaking to the floor, and blood started oozing from the cannula.
The handsome man rushed to him and placed his plastic coffee cup on the bedside table. He quickly closed the cannula to prevent continued bleeding. After a few weeks of watching the doctors, he already knew a few things.
"You should not be wilful." Wang Che said in a hoarse voice.
Despite his calm appearance, Wang Che was overwhelmed with emotions. He could not believe that his little bunny was awake after so long. He wanted to pull Shun into his arms and feel his warmth. He wanted the reassurance that Shun was alive and well.
However, something held him back.
And that something was Shun's strange reaction to seeing him. Usually, the bunny would perk up every time he saw him. He would smile and shout his name enthusiastically. It was not a conscious thing on Shun's part.
It was just the way he was.
Moreover, Shun would always act a little spoiled towards him. In this situation, Shun would have pouted and started complaining about how he was not around when he woke up. Maybe, he would exaggerate his pain and discomfort to get sympathy.
Shun's subconscious behaviour of dependence towards him was the reason everyone believed they were together.
But this Shun, he was different.
His eyes were a little detached. And the restlessness beneath was not that of an energised small animal. It was the rebellious air of a problem child. Wang Che looked at Shun with a deep assessing look, trying to see what was brewing in his mind.
"What are you looking at?" Shun asked with fierce eyes. "Are you one of the incompetent doctors who work in this hospital? I should have you fired."
Wang Che raised an eyebrow as he looked at Shun who was behaving like a little tyrant. Or a high school gangster. If it were any other situation, he would have been amused by the antics of the man he loved.
But the words were no laughing matter.
"Do you not know who I am?" Wang Che asked calmly.
Shun looked at the handsome man who was studying him like he was an alien. Moreover, those wolf-like eyes were turbulent. The intense observation made his heart skip a beat, but he was sure that he had never met the person before.
"Should I know you?" Shun said with a stubborn lift of his head. "I don't care who you are. I want to get out of this place."
Wang Che was frozen for a moment before he tapped on his phone. He needed to see the doctor as soon as possible. After all, the matter of his new boyfriend forgetting about him was not so simple.
After a moment, Shun threw off the bed cover and looked at Wang Che with that unfamiliar rebellious and almost bratty look on his face. Wang Che found the expression quite lovable, but he was too worried to appreciate it.
"I am a patient. How can you not even offer me a glass of water?" Shun complained after not getting a response from Wang Che.
"Let the doctor check up on you first." Wang Che responded.
Wang Che's calm demeanour somehow annoyed Shun. He did not like the way this person who had appeared in his room was treating him. It reminded him of how his family treated him. Like he was a harmless little creature.
No one took him seriously.
The thought caused him to fume. Without a warning, he reached for the coffee cup on the bedside stand and gulped it. It was fortunate that it had cooled down, or he might have gotten a burnt tongue.
The coffee was bitter and sugarless, but he did not want to show weakness. He looked at Wang Che right in the eyes while drinking his coffee. The challenge in his eyes was obvious. After three gulps, Wang Che took the cup from him.
"You know I was drinking from that cup.." Wang Che said with slight amusement, despite the circumstances.
