Chapter 245 – Busted
He Rou instantly stepped up and smiled sweetly at Hyson, extending her hand towards him she said, "Let's get along well in the future." Her toothy grin was only widening more as she added, "From the moment I acted with you during the audition, I knew you're special."
"You sure this treatment isn't because I'm Raelle Xiang's best friend?"
He Rou shook her head, "No way. That's an added bonus. I wouldn't want to get on her bad side." She got a phone call and after talking for a minute she told them, "It seems I can't stay for long. I have to get back. But I'll come to see you again."
"It's alright," said Hyson.
"I'll bring you some rib noodles next time, I heard you like that," said He Rou.
Hyson brightened up, "Oh, then come soon. I'll be waiting."
He Rou smiled at him and left. Seeing her leave Pei ZI Hong turned to Hyson and told him, "She wasn't lying. She had always found you special. In fact, she is the reason why you're called for the audition." Hyson narrowed his eyes at him and Pei Zi Hong instantly cleared himself, "I have no hand in it. She had come up with that idea after seeing the online comparisons."
*Knock! Knock!*
"Young Master Fai, your friends are here to see you."
This time, Hyson didn't even ask who they were as he said to bring them in. He could already tell who came. He looked at Pei Zi Hong and asked, "You told them?"
Pei Zi Hong rubbed his nape sheepishly, "I only called Zhen Ge because I was worried about you."
"Well, thank you! That mother hen is gonna stew me alive in guilt now."
Pei Zi Hong pursed his lips trying to suppress his laughter.
Just as he had expected, Lin Zhen entered the room with the other two following behind him. They all came to circle around his bed and then it began…
"Xiao Fai, how are you doing?" began Lin Zhen.
"What happened?" asked Fang Yiwen who was wrapped around in layers of clothes even though the weather had already started to take a turn. But his pale skin was really not in a good relationship with the sun so this vampire usually hid with layers of clothes to avoid getting burned by the sun.
"You didn't even tell us about your injury and neither about your surgery," added Huang Shuyi.
"I always treat you like my own youngest brother," said Lin Zhen. "How could you not even inform me? I was so worried when Zi Hong called me." He touched Hyson's forehead and asked, "How are you feeling now? Does it still hurt?"
"Zhen Ge," interrupted Fang Yiwen. "Our Xiao Fai and pain exist in different realms. This idiot never even winced when he used to fall while practicing. Shouldn't you be clear about how he is?"
Lin Zhen ignored him as he continued to say, "Just because he doesn't show it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt."
"Yes, mom!" exclaimed Fang Yiwen making Hyson laugh at him. For some reason, Fang Yiwen loved to annoy Lin Zhen. It was a fact that Lin Zhen was like a mother taking care of all of them but only Fang Yiwen ever voiced it out without any scruples.
Actually, Hyson was really happy to see all of them here. And their concern wasn't faked either. They really cared about him and that meant a lot to someone like Hyson who had no siblings or a family per se. His first introduction to the warmth of a family was from Raelle's family. Later, these group mates became another family without him realizing it.
Seeing them talking, laughing, and just being there with him made Hyson really happy.
There was another knock at the door and this time, Hyson's eyes sparkled when he looked who it was. "Aiyah! My cotton and candy are finally here. Come to brother!"
The person who brought the cage with those tiny white, fluffy birds kept a straight face but his group mates couldn't do so. Hyson excitedly took the cage and opened the door. As he took out his little birds, he rubbed their head lovingly with his pinky finger. They felt so soft to touch. Afraid that he might hurt them, he actually put them on his head.
YES! ON HIS HEAD!!!
"My mum always says that my hair is like a bird's nest. So, I hope this nest is comfortable for you both."
"Pfft!"
Soon, the burst of laughter echoed throughout the room. The tiny birds comfortably lazed on Hyson's head as if it was really a comfortable nest.
"Oh my gosh! I have to take a picture of this!" said Huang Shuyi. "I think I'll be missing out on this rare moment if I didn't."
"Why didn't I think of that?" added Fang Yiwen and Pei Zi Hong.
Lin Zhen shook his head at this bunch of kids, "Can't you guys be serious? Xiao Fai is sick!"
"Our Fai is strong," said Fang Yiwen as he came and wrapped an arm around Hyson's shoulder to take a selfie as well. "Besides, we are here. Now, he'll be alright."
"Really? Wen Ge, you have magic?" asked Hyson.
"Of course, I do," answered Fang Yiwen. "My love for you is like magic! It has the power to heal you."
"Oi! Dramatic chicken! Just shut up already!" said Huang Shuyi in annoyance. "Fai, you don't pay attention to him. Playing games has damaged his brain."
Fang Yiwen snorted at that, "Shuyi, I think excessive sleep has killed your brain cells as well!"
"Can you both take this out of here? We are in a hospital right now. Is this really how you should be treating a patient? Have some decency!"
Huang Shuyi and Fang Yiwen gave each other a provocative look before they both turned their eyes towards Pei Zi Hong.
"I just realized, Zi Hong, didn't you say you're busy and will not be coming to see Fai with us?"
Pei Zi Hong stiffened.
"But it looks like you came even earlier than us."
"Oohh…" These sound effects came from Hyson's mouth. "Busted!"
