Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Recovery



"Finally!" Xiaoyun yelled out loud in excitement as he was able to get out of bed by himself.

Tianci immediately slammed the door open as she rushed inside the room to check who was yelling out loud.

"Tianci! I can finally stand up again!"

As Xiaoyun tried to walk toward Tianci, he almost tripped several times in a row.

"Oh, that\'s great news. But please be careful. It\'s still not fully healed yet, I think."

Tianci walked up to support Xiaoyun and helped him slowly sit back down on the bed.

"Sorry, I got ahead of myself there." Xiaoyun realized he was celebrating too early.

"It\'s fine. I would react the same way if I were you——"

Suddenly, Xiaoyun\'s belly started growling out loud, and Xiaoyun looked to the side in embarrassment.

"I\'ll go get breakfast——"

"No, it\'s fine. I can make breakfast right here."

Tianci looked confused until she watched an entire plate of dumplings appear right before her eyes.

"Oh, right, I forgot about that..."

Tianci awkwardly scratches her head as a flashback appears in her head, where Xiaoyun shows his ability right in front. Not to mention, all the blood she had drunk was created just inside his body to replenish it.

"You want some? You haven\'t eaten breakfast either, right?"

Xiaoyun creates two forks in her hands and hands one into her hand before she can say anything.

"The temperature of the food might be slightly off, but it\'s fully cooked," Xiaoyun explained as he picked up a dumping with his fork.

Tianci picked one up and put it in her mouth, only to find the inside of the dumpling to be burning hot as she pulled the dumpling back out.

"Ouch, that was so hot." Tianci stuck her burned tongue out as she blew a gentle wind over it.

Xiaoyun slowly put his piece of dumpling inside his mouth, only to find it to be already cold.

But it was still delicious as he swallowed it down and proceeded to pick up another piece.

As the two ate the dumpling piece by piece, they were getting full. But there were still five left as they both stopped eating at the same time.

Suddenly, the door opened again.

"Tianci, I\'m here to take your shift... Oh my god! Is that what I think it is?"

Kate excitedly rushed over to the two, with her attention entirely concentrated on the dumplings.

"You want some?" Xiaoyun asked.

With no hesitation, Kate nodded several times in a second.

"Here, you can have the rest." Xiaoyun handed the entire plate along with the fork to Kate.

Kate immediately began eating the dumplings. Every bite Kate took, she let out a moaning sound as if she was eating the best thing ever.

"It\'s so good! I love it!" Kate commented as she laid the empty plate back down on the table.

"I can cook a better one next time if you want... Do you like dumpling this much?" Xiaoyun asked curiously.

"Yes! I have tried all the different foods all over the world, and dumplings are simply the best type of food out there! From Pelmeni to knodel..."

After rambling for almost ten minutes on all the different dumplings she had eaten around the world, she realized she had got a little sidetracked.

"Um, sorry, did I bored you guys?"

"No, it sounds fascinating. I never even knew there were that many different dumplings." Xiaoyun reassured Kate, with Tianci nodding in agreement.

"I knew it. I\'m not the only one who loves dumplings so much... Oh, right, I almost forgot, Tianci. You can go back home to sleep now. I can take it over from here... Yueyue told you the schedule already, right?"

"Yeah.... but can I have a request?" Tianci pleaded.

"What is it?" Kate asked.

"Instead of switching between times, can we split up the days of even and odd days? I\'ll do the odd days, too." Tianci suggested.

"Like the whole day? Wouldn\'t that be too tiring for twenty-four hours?" Kate disliked the idea.

"I can\'t really sleep... or I don\'t get tired enough to fall asleep at all. I just woke up after napping for an hour." Tianci explains.

"Make sense. You are practically a vampire at this point." Xiaoyun chimed in jokingly.

Tianci seemed to take it to heart as Xiaoyun noticed she looked a little down after hearing it.

"Sorry, I was just joking. I didn\'t mean to——"

Tianci interrupted Xiaoyun\'s apology, saying, \'No, you aren\'t wrong... I\'m not sure if I\'m even considered to be human anymore.\'"

Seeing the two digging themselves into a deeper hole, Kate decided to cheer Tianci up a little.

"Tianci, what makes us human is our emotions. And I can see your emotions loud and clear. Besides, there are athletes who don\'t need to sleep just like you, and they\'re still considered human...

Also, if everyone thinks you\'re a human, then you are as human as everyone else. And I\'m sure that\'s what everyone believes of you."

"Thanks." Tianci quietly whispered.

After a long silence, Kate spoke up again.

"Um, back to the point earlier. Sorry, I have to refuse your proposal. I can\'t stay up for the entire day like that."

Tianci was disappointed by the decision, but she didn\'t argue any further. Fortunately for Tianci, what Xiaoyun brought up next gave her hope.

"Ahem, you know. I don\'t really need a bodyguard at nighttime. I\'ll tell Yueyue just to have you two be my bodyguard in the morning."

"Why not?" Kate looked confused by Xiaoyun\'s statement.

"Because Tianci already sleeps at my house. There\'s no point in having you guys stand there at night." Xiaoyun explained his thoughts.

"Oh right, I didn\'t think of that... Maybe we can just both do the morning together then." Kate suggested.

Tianci hesitated for a second but accepted the decision at the end.

"I\'ll text her that right now."

After Xiaoyun finished texting, Xiaoyun looked at the time again.

"Oh right, I was supposed to see Renqin in the office today... Can one of you guys support me to the office?" Xiaoyun asked.

Both of them replied yes at the same time, with both sides giving their chance to the other person.

Only ended when Xiaoyun grabbed onto both of their arms at once.

"Let\'s go already. I don\'t want to be late."

Seeing Xiaoyun\'s decision, the two went along with it as they supported Xiaoyun to the doorway.

As they arrived at the doorway, the nurse and the doctor were just about to go inside the room to perform their daily checkup.

"Oh, nice to see you standing up, Mr.Mayor... Is everything okay now?" The doctor asked curiously.

"Yeah, tomorrow would probably be fully healed. I\'ll be leaving the hospital and going back home." Xiaoyun replied.

Seeing Xiaoyun\'s face determined to leave, the doctor didn\'t stop him and simply wished Xiaoyun a safe journey back home.

---

After walking out of the hospital, Tianci decided to ask something.

"Xiaoyun, do you want to go back home first or to Renqin\'s office?"

"Back home first. I can\'t go to the office in a hospital gown like this."

Twenty minutes later...

"Finally, I\'m back home." Xiaoyun sighed as he stood outside the door.

It was one of the hardest walks the three had gone through, as Xiaoyun was constantly at risk of slipping or tripping over a small incline.

At some point, Kate suggested that one of them carry Xiaoyun on the back, but Xiaoyun refused the suggestion as he wanted to practice walking more.

Slowly, he was getting better and better at walking as he relearned how to use his legs. He was even able to walk on his own without slipping by the time he got to the front of the house.

Xiaoyun took out the key and opened the door, only to be pushed over by something inside.

Luckily, Kate and Tianci caught Xiaoyun on time before he fell onto his head.

"Oh my god, I\'m so sorry! Wait, Xiaoyun! When did you get out of the hospital?" Leyan was in complete shock to see that Xiaoyun was the person that she had almost knocked over.

"Just today. I was feeling well enough to walk." Xiaoyun replied as the two lifted Xiaoyun back up.

"Oh, that\'s great to hear! But I have to deliver this to Huayi. I\'ll be back later." Leyan ran out of the porch with a bag in her hand.

As the three walked inside the house and all the way to the stairway, a new challenge appeared.

"Huh, I never thought about having the house more friendly to the crippled," Xiaoyun mumbled as he stared at the stairs in agony.

Kate and Tianci looked over at each other as if they could talk to each other in silence.

Eventually, Kate gave in and let Tianci carry Xiaoyun up the stairs.

After arriving at the top, Tianci put Xiaoyun back down so he could walk back inside the room as Kate and Tianci stood outside.

"We\'ll be waiting out here... If there is any problem, just ask, okay?" Tianci reminded Xiaoyun as her face started blushing.
