Chapter 403 - Smoke and dust
"Umph!!!" Long Xun groaned when a piece of wood fell on his wounded back. He knew he must be bleeding but he didn't care about all of that. He glanced at Su Yanyan and he saw that she was looking at him with tears filled eyes.
"Hey, don't cry. I'm alright, " he assured her even though he knew that he wasn't fine. His vision was starting to go black and he could feel that he was going to faint. Long Xun tried to get up, he tried to throw the piece of wood away but he didn't have any strength left in his body for the effects of the medicine didn't fade away. Luckily, there was someone out there, who would help them in this situation.
"Long Xun...." Su Yanyan called in a small shaky voice.
Hearing that, Long Xun chuckled. His heartbeat sped up upon hearing her calling his name for the very first time. He smiled widely like a fool despite all of the pain and he said, "Su Yanyan, I am fi—"
But before he could complete his sentence, his vision went black and his head fell on Su Yanyan's shoulders.
Su Yanyan was startled. She glanced at the unconscious Long Xun lying on her body and she tried to wake him up. There were dust particles and smoke all around and she was having a very hard time breathing. Her eyes were starting to get watery and she sighed cursing Housekeeper Qin for the nth time.
"Stupid, " she said while looking at his unconscious face. She sighed and she tried to move the wooden plank from above them but it was just too heavy for her. She couldn't move it nor she could move her body. On top of that, Long Xun's weight was also on her body and she was almost getting crushed beneath him.
The more Su Yanyan tried to move, the more she was getting hurt in the process. Somehow, she managed to move the wooden plank from above them and throw it aside.?While she was moving it, the wooden plank slipped from her hand, due to its heaviness and its corner struck her forehead.
"Oww!!!!! Stupid, stupid wooden plank!" Su Yanyan winced in pain, cursing the wooden plank for hurting her. She touched the corner of her forehead and she saw blood on her fingertips.
"Great! Just what I needed....." she groaned and she tried to move Long Xun. After pushing him away, from her body, she quickly looked at him properly to check his wounds. There were a lot of wounds on his body and blood was also coming out from some of the wounds.
Su Yanyan felt guilty looking at his wounds. Even in this situation of life and death, Long Xun protected her. He took all the suffering on his body while he tried to protect her as much as he could. Just thinking about everything that happened, tears were formed in her eyes.
Wiping them away, Su Yanyan got up on her feet but soon she fell, realizing that her ankles were bruised and slightly injured. She cursed Housekeeper Qin once again for this whole situation. She glanced around to see and check on how to get out of here with her injured body and an unconscious person.
Biting her lips, Su Yanyan tried to get up once again and this time she managed to get up on her feet. Even though her whole body was aching as if she was being ripped apart, she knew that they needed to leave this place. Bending down, she held Long Xun's arms and she tried to pick him up.
Before she never realized this, but as she was picking Long Xun up, she understood how heavy he was. She tried many times to lift him, she called miserably. Taking a deep breath, she mustered all of her strength and she tried to pick him up but before she could do that, her legs gave up and she fell on the ground beside Long Xun.
As she fell, her head was smashed onto the ground and her vision started to go black. She was losing consciousness and Su Yanyan heart trembled with fear. She can't faint right now. She needed to get out of here with Long Xun. She tried to fight back but nothing worked. Before everything went black, Su Yanyan saw a vague figure in the smoke.
"Help....." she whispered in a low voice and then she fell unconscious on top of Long Xun.

A few hours later,
When Long Xun woke up, all he could see was a white ceiling and four white walls all around him. He was so puzzled by the whole situation. Where was he? What is going on? There were so many questions his head and his head ached as he thought about it.
Squinting his eyes, he tried to get from the bed but as soon as he tried to get up, he was pushed back. He turned his head and saw his best friend's anger face, glaring at him.
"Zhehan....." he called trying to get up but he was again pushed back onto the bed.
"What Zhehan? Shut up and lie down on the bed!" Zhang Zhehan scolded.
"Where am I?" Long Xun asked.
"Where do you think, Mr.? You are in a hospital with a broken body and a broken brain, " Zhang Zhehan berated.
Hospital?
Long Xun glanced at his surrounding once and seeing the IV tube connected to his hand, he sighed recalling everything that happened a few hours ago. Now, he realized why Zhang Zhehan was so angry at him.
"Where's Su Yan? Is she alright?" he inquired.
Zhang Zhehan narrowed his eyes at Long Xun. "Don't even ask about that girl. She is the root of all of this. It's because of her that you almost died, Long Xun. What did you say to me? You have everything under your control. Is this the type of control you were talking about?"
