Chapter 78 - 78. Waking Up II (1/2)

Third person POV

Hong er looked closely at the shadow and noticed that the shadow was similar to Weisheng's silhouette. She recalled the times that a dark aura leaked from Weisheng's body, Weisheng told her that his power was shadow magic ( Darkness' branch element). The shadow was holding the sword the same way as Weisheng and the power was very strong.

Hong er: ' So the shadow was like Sheng ge's clone with the same strength as Sheng ge! Then I can't defeat him without using magic.'

Then she suddenly remembered what Qier said to her.

Hong er: ” Sheng ge,this is Hong er!”

Then the shadow halted and shrunk back to Weisheng's body, Hong er sighed in relief and glanced at the still sleeping Weisheng. She unsummoned her sword and went to the side of his bed. She lightly shook his body and called out his name.

Hong er: ” Sheng ge, wake up.”

Weisheng scrunched his eyebrow in annoyance, he grunted and spoke with his husky morning voice.

Weisheng: ” Ugghh, 5 more minutes.”

Hong er: ” Then I will go prepare warm water to wash your face.”

Weisheng: ” Uhhmm…. *snore”

Weisheng dreamed Hong er was taking care of him in the morning like how a wife would be. His lips were slightly lifted up, Hong er came back with a basin of warm water and a towel. She saw that Weisheng was still sleeping even though he said ” 5 more minutes”. Hong er huffed and put the basin on the small table beside the bed.

Hong er: ” Sheng ge, it's time to wake up.”

Weisheng: ” Uhhm…”

Weisheng hummed and fell asleep again. Hong er sighed, she pulled off the blanket from him and took off her slippers before she climbed the bed. Hong er pulled Weisheng's hand and helped him to sit up.

Weisheng: ” Sheng ge, stay.”

Then Weisheng stopped wobbling around and sat with his back slouched. Hong er smiled and patted his messy bed hair, Weisheng had regained 20% of his consciousness. Hong er took the towel and dipped into the warm water, she wringed the towel and gently wiped Weisheng's face while humming a song. Weisheng's mind become more tranquil as he listened to her hum.

After Hong er finished wiping his face, she wanted to change his clothes and she finally noticed that Weisheng's abs and chest was visible because he was slouching and his clothes were slightly opened. Hong er cheeks were flushed as she turned around to call Qiyi and Qier to change Weisheng's clothes but she saw a neatly folded clothes on the desk.

( There were a nightstand, a desk, and a dining table in the room.)

Qiyi sneakily put Weisheng's clothes when Hong er tried to lift Weisheng up. Hong er took the folded clothes and her cheeks got redder. Hong er put down the clean clothes and slowly took off Weisheng's shirt. She was amazed by what she saw, Weisheng's back was fully covered in black dragon tattoo. The dragon face was frightening and menacing but Hong er saw loneliness beneath the dragon's eyes.

Hong realized what she was doing, she was fl.u.s.tered and quickly changed his shirt to the new one. After she changed his clothes, she went to the dressing table and took a comb from the drawer. She went back to Weisheng's bed and combed his hair until neat, then she took his usual black ribbon and tied up his hair into a ponytail.

Weisheng finally could grasp on what happened, he looked at Hong er who was standing behind him. He stared at her in a dazed way for 2 whole minutes then widened his eyes.

Weisheng: ” Hong er?!”

Hong er: ” Yes?”

Weisheng realized that his clothes were changed, he immediately looked down and sighed a relief.

Weisheng: ' Thank god she didn't change my pants.'

Weisheng looked at her again and confusedly asked.

Weisheng: ” Why are you here?”

Hong er: ” I'm here to wake you up.”

Weisheng: ” But it was Qiyi and Qier's job….”

Weisheng halted then he glared at the front door. Qiyi and Qier shivered in fear, they were crying inside their heart.

Qiyi & Qier: ' We are just trying to help you, master…'

Hong er noticed his glares towards Qiyi and Qier's direction, she patted his shoulder and smiled at him.
