Looking at Hao Qiang lying motionlessly on the sickbed, who sometimes frowned due to the pain from his coma, Qi Mengxi was crying every day. After half a month, her thin figure had been reduced by a lot.

During this period of time, Hao Qiang's parents had also specially rushed over to see Hao Qiang. However, every time Hao Qiang's mother saw him lying on the bed like this, she would burst into tears. Thus, after knowing that Hao Qiang's life was no longer in danger, Hao Qiang's father would no longer bring Hao Qiang to visit him.

As for Lei Li, he had disappeared for more than half a month. During this time, the butler and the rest had gone to look for him, but they could not find him.

Hao Qiang felt that he had slept for a long time, and even had a very painful dream. In the dream, the meridians in his entire body were being crushed inch by inch, and the intense pain was akin to that of an ant devouring him. However, the feeling of being eaten by an ant was not very real, but if it was his entire body, then that feeling could not be expressed in words.

Even though Hao Qiang had been lying there for more than half a month, he felt as if a century had passed.

During that time, Hao Qiang had wanted to wake up. However, no matter how much he struggled, his eyelids seemed to have been sewn shut, unable to open.

Later on, when Hao Qiang heard Qi Mengxi's voice, it was as if Qi Mengxi herself was whispering into his ear. Hao Qiang loved this feeling so much that the process of struggling slowly turned into a form of enjoyment.

He had forgotten how long it had been since Qi Mengxi had spoken so intimately to him in his ear.

He was intoxicated by this illusory intimacy, and even though he knew in his heart that it was false, he was willing to do so.

Finally, one day, that feeling of being bitten by an ant was no longer there. His eyelids were no longer as heavy as before. Thus, one night, Hao Qiang finally opened his eyes.

Hao Qiang stared fixedly at the white ceiling in front of him. His nose was filled with a strange smell of disinfectant and for a moment, he didn't know what kind of situation he was in.

He only remembered how he went to save Qi Mengxi, and how he was forced to unleash the energy of a high-level esper … Then, he couldn't remember what happened afterwards.

However, it seemed like he was saved.

Thinking up to this point, Hao Qiang gently moved his fingers. When Hao Qiang felt that his fingers had moved under his feeble control, he finally felt like he had returned to the Modern World.

He really didn't expect that he could really be saved. Hao Qiang thought about it.

Hao Qiang turned his head to look at his surroundings. The snow-white walls and the boring interior decorations made him seem like he was living in the legendary VIP room. However, it didn't seem to be any better.

Hao Qiang moved his hands to make sure that he had sufficient strength to support him in sitting up before he forced his upper body up. He felt his entire body stiffen. He must have been lying on the bed for a long time.

Only now did Hao Qiang notice that there was still someone in the ward. The continuous days of lying down on the bed had greatly reduced his perception.

That person was leaning against a table in front of a sickbed, dozing off. Furthermore, he seemed to be sleeping soundly, so he didn't notice that Hao Qiang had woken up.

That person was none other than Qi Mengxi. Ever since Hao Qiang had been hospitalized, Qi Mengxi had been waiting for him in the ward all night. Sometimes, she would only return to rest after being persuaded by Jiang Lin and the others.

Hao Qiang quietly looked at Qi Mengxi, who was still frowning even after she had fallen asleep. A feeling of happiness or worry suddenly welled up in his heart.

It was clear that the voice he had heard in his dream was not his imagination, but it was indeed Qi Mengxi, who had been waiting for him. This proved that Qi Mengxi still cared about him, and this realization made him extremely happy.

The next day, when the butler pushed open the door of the ward, he saw Hao Qiang squatting at the bedside, looking at the sleeping person affectionately. The white lily on the bed was blooming beautifully, and under the rising sun, the beautiful scene looked serene and beautiful.

Hearing the butler open the door, Hao Qiang turned his head and made a silent gesture towards him. The butler nodded, placed the breakfast in his hand on the table, and walked out.

Hao Qiang watched as the sleeping Qi Mengxi lightly placed a kiss on his forehead before following her out.

The butler was waiting for him in the corridor.

"How do you feel?" the butler asked when he came out.

Hao Qiang nodded. After this night's recovery, he felt much better than when he woke up.

"That's good. Master and Madam have always been worried about you, so I will immediately inform them to come and visit you." As he spoke, he took out his phone and gave a call to the Hao family's mansion.

When Mother Hao, who was on the other end of the phone, heard the news that his son had woken up, he immediately wanted to come and see her. Hao Qiang quickly snatched his phone over to comfort Madam Hao, telling her not to worry.

Mother Hao was naturally unwilling to do so. However, she was also unable to endure Hao Qiang's persuasive words, so she slowly calmed down.

It wasn't that Hao Qiang didn't want to see Father and Mother Hao as soon as possible, but he had more important things to do right now.

"Where is Lei Li?" Hao Dao asked.

"After you fainted, Mister Lei also went missing." The butler reported truthfully.

Hearing this, Hao Qiang did not show any surprise and merely nodded his head.

"Help me with the discharge procedures and arrange for a car. I need to go somewhere." Hao Qiang said.

"However, your injury is not suitable for you to be discharged from the hospital. If there is anything that you must not do, you can instruct me to go." The butler was worried.

Hao Qiang shook his head and said, "You can't take my place on this matter."

Looking at his serious expression, the butler nodded his head.

When Hao Qiang returned to his room, Qi Mengxi had just woken up. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief at the sight of Hao Qiang.

Hao Qiang smiled as he watched Ye Zichen's actions. He felt that Ye Zichen's actions were incomparably cute.

After confirming that the person in front of her was Hao Qiang, tears flowed down her cheeks. Looking at her expression, Hao Qiang was scared out of his wits. He sat on the edge of the bed and tried to comfort her.

For a moment, the two of them did not know which one was the one that had just recovered from a serious illness.

"I thought you were going to leave me alone and never wake up again." Qi Mengxi looked at Hao Qiang, who was trying his best to hold back his tears, and complained.

When Hao Qiang heard her tearful accusation, a doting smile appeared on his face. He reached out to wipe the tears that were still on Qi Mengxi's face and comforted her gently, "How could that be? Aren't I still in front of you?"

"But you don't know how scary you were that day."

"I know, I know, I must be scaring our baby Meng Xi, can I apologize for it?"

"Not good." Qi Mengxi denied it immediately.

When Hao Qiang saw the expression on the other party's face, which he hadn't seen for a long time, Hao Qiang's longing for a long time seemed to be filled up in an instant.

How long had it been since he last saw someone with such an expression and such a willful tone? Every day he thought and thought and thought and sometimes he was nervous and what would he do if he never saw him again? He was probably going to go crazy. Thinking about sickness probably meant something like this.

Seeing Hao Qiang staring at her silently for a long time, Qi Mengxi's expression gradually turned uneasy. She touched her face that had been neglected due to her worry for Hao Qiang.

Hao Qiang looked at her expression and action. How could he not know what she was thinking? He finally revealed a smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Qi Mengxi covered her face and said with her eyes wide open.

Hao Qiang held her hands and pulled her pair of small hands into his embrace. "I'm laughing at you."

"Do you find me ugly?"

Looking at the other party's furious expression, Hao Qiang shook his head. He then pressed the tip of his nose against Qi Mengxi's pretty nose. Qi Mengxi instantly flushed red and was unable to utter a single word.

"You will always be the most beautiful in my heart." Hao Qiang slowly said as he saw the shy expression on the other person's face.

Hearing this, not only her face, but even her neck turned red.

"I'm glad." Hao Qiang placed a kiss on the other party's forehead and pulled Qi Mengxi into his arms.

Leaning on the broad embrace, Qi Mengxi didn't know what to do as the tip of her nose belonged solely to a mature man.

"I thought I'd never see you again. After all, you were so angry, you know, you really scared me. I was out all night waiting for you, but you just ignored me, and I was already depressed. " Hao Qiang whispered as he looked at Qi Mengxi, who was in his arms.

"It's all your fault." Hearing Hao Qiang's words, Qi Mengxi was so excited that she used both her hands to prop Hao Qiang's chest up as she complained.

Hao Qiang ignored her accusation and pulled her back into his arms. "Listen to me."

Qi Mengxi obediently leaned back.

Seeing the other party finally behave obediently, Hao Qiang sighed, "Moreover, Lei Li even told me later on that you were drinking every day to worry about me, and I was even more worried. At that time, I blamed myself crazily, why did I hurt your heart? You are clearly such a good girl, how could I bear it?"

"I know, later on Ruo Bing also told you, she said you …" Qi Mengxi bit her lip and said, "I said you were drugged. That's why …"

She could no longer continue her sentence as she wanted to accept what had happened between her boyfriend and her best friend. Even if she knew that it was due to drug control, it would still be difficult for her to accept.
