After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 626 - 624 Release Your Hand!

Pei Huai, feeling dizzy from the fever, still didn’t forget to clutch tightly at Xia Wenyan’s clothes, refusing to let him leave.

"Yanyan..." Pei Huai murmured unconsciously.

Xia Wenyan watched Pei Huai with a bit of helplessness, really not understanding how such a grown man could still be so careless with his health.

He was already burning up so severely, yet he didn’t think to go to the hospital.

His hand gently rubbed Pei Huai’s head, touching his burning forehead, he silently sighed, stood up, and went outside to get some water, planning to physically cool Pei Huai down.

Although Pei Huai had already been injected with medicine, physical cooling would make his body feel more comfortable.

Just as Xia Wenyan left the ward, the tall bodyguard who had been quietly trailing the two of them finally snuck into the emergency room ward.

He approached Pei Huai and softly called out, "Mr. Pei Huai?"

But the person lying on the hospital bed had no reaction whatsoever.

His brow furrowed slightly, he called out again, "Mr. Pei Huai?"

"..."

Silent breathing was the only response he received.

The tall bodyguard wanted to move closer, but at that moment, he keenly sensed someone approaching from outside the room.

The tall bodyguard could no longer call out to Pei Huai and had to leave the emergency room ward directly.

Xia Wenyan, returning with a basin and a towel, immediately spotted the shadow exiting the ward.

His eyebrows furrowed, and almost subconsciously, he quickened his pace to Pei Huai’s bedside.

Knowing Pei Huai’s identity in R country, he also knew how many external enemies he had.

How foolish had he been to leave him alone in the ward?

When Pei Huai was healthy, whatever happened, he would definitely be able to handle it, but now he was sick, and a fever had rendered him unconscious.

And yet, he had left him alone in the ward.

If something had happened, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

Thinking this, Xia Wenyan hurriedly checked over Pei Huai’s condition in the ward, but still feeling restless, he called the doctor back to thoroughly examine Pei Huai once more before he could finally feel at ease.

He let out a long sigh and tightly grasped Pei Huai’s hand, "Please, don’t let anything happen to you."

Xia Wenyan, thinking the recent situation might have been a misunderstanding, still couldn’t calm his emotions.

Suddenly, the fingers of the person lying on the bed twitched slightly, and Pei Huai slowly opened his eyes, just in time to see a pitiful looking Xia Wenyan holding his hand.

His eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Did someone bully you?"

Pei Huai’s voice was hoarse, weakened by the fever, and he appeared somewhat listless.

Even so, the look he gave Xia Wenyan was full of concern, exuding an uncontrollable hostility.

It was as if he would immediately burst forth and tear apart anyone who had bullied Xia Wenyan.

Xia Wenyan was not at all surprised that Pei Huai had this capability.

When he was in R country, he had seen how the Rimu Family treated Pei Huai with utmost respect.

The nature of the Rimu Family was something he had naturally learned about through a briefing from his elder brother.

How could someone who stood his ground within the Rimu Family in R country be a simpleton?

Xia Wenyan never thought there was anything wrong with a man like Pei Huai.

His concentration and obsession toward him, however, made him cherish it all the more.

Xia Wenyan’s eyes reddened, and he gently shook his head, "No, no one has bullied me. If anyone has, it would definitely be you. You’re so seriously ill and yet you don’t seek treatment at the hospital. Are you trying to piss me off to death?"

There was an accusation in his words, but also filled with deep concern.

Pei Huai could clearly hear it, and he looked at Xia Wenyan somewhat helplessly, seemingly at a loss for how to comfort him.

He tentatively lifted his hand, hoping to pat Xia Wenyan on the back, but Xia Wenyan dodged away.

A sudden sinking feeling hit Pei Huai’s heart, and panic flooded his eyes in an instant.

Did his Yanyan hate him now?

"Yanyan, I, I will get better soon, please don’t be angry, don’t..."

Don’t leave me.

He gazed at Xia Wenyan, his eyes full of pleading, every bit of his aggressive energy almost turning tangible.

In the past, if Xia Wenyan disliked him, he could stay by his side and silently protect him.

But now that he’d had such a wonderful person in his life, he couldn’t control the fear of losing him.

Even the thought of Xia Wenyan leaving him, of never smiling at him again, was like something blocking his heart.

No, no, Yanyan was his; he couldn’t lose him.

In his panic, he grabbed Xia Wenyan’s hand, wishing he could hold on tight enough to keep him by his side forever.

Xia Wenyan was startled by Pei Huai’s sudden movement.

He had just dodged away because his hand was still hooked up to an IV, and now, because of Pei Huai’s fumbling, his hand had started to bleed.

"Pei Huai! Let go!"

"..."

Xia Wenyan’s voice rang in Pei Huai’s ears, causing him to freeze in place.

Since they got together, Xia Wenyan had never called out his full name; it was always Brother Pei or something like that. It looked like he truly was out of favor now.

He despondently let go of Xia Wenyan’s hand, then lay back half-reclined, his face expressionless, like a death row inmate waiting for the final sentence.

Xia Wenyan was about to burst out laughing at his expression, "I told you not to move about, and now you feel wronged? Your hand has bled, don’t you realize that?"

He wanted badly to punch Pei Huai, yet seeing him with such a pitiful look stopped him.

Xia Wenyan didn’t know how to vent his anger anymore.

Pei Huai, hearing his voice, froze. Turning to look at Xia Wenyan sitting beside him, he spoke up timidly, "You... you didn’t start to hate me, did you?"

"I..."

Xia Wenyan wanted to angrily declare that he did hate him for not taking better care of himself, for letting himself get so ill.

But seeing Pei Huai looking so tentative and fearful, Xia Wenyan couldn’t bear to say it.

He seldom saw Pei Huai so abject and pitiable, like a little dog abandoned in a cardboard box in a downpour.

Apart from shivering miserably in the rain, it was incapable of even saving itself.

Xia Wenyan sighed lightly and placed his hand on Pei Huai’s head, "I don’t hate you, I never have. I’m just heartbroken that you don’t take better care of yourself."

Pei Huai’s eyes instantly lit up, he looked at Xia Wenyan, and his entire demeanor changed from moments ago.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, he quickly explained, "I haven’t been neglecting my health. When I felt a bit of a cold coming on today, I did take medicine, and I even went to sleep for a bit, but somehow it just got worse..."

His voice dwindled as he spoke, and in the end, he could only look pitifully at Xia Wenyan, "If you hadn’t come to find me, would I never see you again, Yanyan?"
