Chapter 407: Wakes Up

Mo Zhu actually told Bai He that Ye Shiyuan was asleep.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Host!"

"Who sleeps like this? Do not think I am easy to fool. If something happens to Ye Shiyuan, I will never let you off!"

Mo Zhu was actually a little frightened when he saw Bai He like this, but he still quickly explained it to him.

"Host, this is his protective mechanism. For example, when a person encounters danger and something suddenly flies toward you, you will instinctively crouch down and cover your head with your arms. Ye Shiyuan is currently suffering from a severe lack of spiritual power. Before his spiritual power recovers, his body is temporarily providing him with a protective mechanism."

Spiritual power and cultivation were not the same thing. Once cultivation was gone, it was truly gone. But spiritual power could regenerate.

"I have plenty of spiritual medicines. Wouldn’t giving them to him speed up the recovery of his spiritual power?" Bai He immediately rummaged around and took out a medicinal pill, then placed it into Ye Shiyuan’s mouth.

Why was he not swallowing it?

Bai He waited there blankly for a while, but Ye Shiyuan did not seem to have swallowed anything.

"Host, you can give up on that idea. Just let the male lead recover slowly. Right now, he has no consciousness. Calling it sleep is actually me being polite. To put it more bluntly, he is in a state of suspended animation."

So he really could not swallow it...

"I have a very good idea."

"Tell me quickly."

"Why don’t you feed him the medicine mouth to mouth? Wouldn’t that solve the problem?"

Bai He’s cheeks immediately flushed red. "W, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Host, why are you so embarrassed? You and Ye Shiyuan have done this before. You were even the one taking the initiative back then."

Back then, Ye Shiyuan had been perfectly normal, hadn’t he?

With him in this state now, if Bai He did something like that, it would feel as though he were forcing himself on him. He really could not bring himself to do it. Besides, there was still someone else here.

Ahem!

"Senior, thank you for saving Shiyuan."

"That is a joke. It was not really me who saved him. Rather, he has caused me quite a lot of trouble." Qin Tao looked completely fine, but he had inevitably been injured as well.

He had to admit that he had underestimated Ye Shiyuan’s strength and the power of The Goal of All Life Is Death.

"You stay here and take good care of him. I am going to heal my injuries."

"Oh, alright, Senior."

After watching Qin Tao leave, Bai He hesitated for a moment before finally placing a medicinal pill into his mouth.

"I do not have any other intentions. I just want you to get better quickly."

Bai He probably never would have imagined in this lifetime that one day he would become this bold.

His cheeks were slightly flushed, and he breathed somewhat heavily, his eyes carrying a hint of embarrassment and indignation.

However, after Ye Shiyuan was fed the medicine, his spiritual power really did recover much faster.

Bai He fed him several pills, and the effects naturally became more and more obvious.

...

After some time had passed, Ye Shiyuan’s eyes opened in confusion. It seemed that he had just had a dream.

Although his entire body was still weak, the corners of his lips curved into a faint smile.

It had been a beautiful dream.

Bai He had actually taken the initiative... Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the sleeping figure beside the bed.

His brows moved slightly, and his eyes carried a hint of gentleness. There was nothing that could make him happier than opening his eyes and seeing this person right beside him.

"Shiyuan, you are awake."

Bai He rubbed his eyes, still not fully awake.

"Mm."

"Shiyuan, you really woke up." The joy in his eyes could not be hidden.

Bai He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where am I?"

"You are here with Senior Qin Tao. He was the one who brought you back. Why did you have to use The Goal of All Life Is Death? Losing to Senior Qin Tao is not something shameful."

Ye Shiyuan felt somewhat helpless. "It seems that even after using The Goal of All Life Is Death, I still did not win."

"It does not matter. As long as you are alright, that is enough." Bai He had been so anxious that he had nearly died from worry back then. Ye Shiyuan’s life was more important than anything else.

Compared to that, winning or losing seemed so pale and insignificant. It no longer mattered at all.

Of course, Bai He was too embarrassed to mention what he had just done. Even if Ye Shiyuan did not care whether Bai He was acting like some kind of lecherous person, he would probably still secretly laugh at him.

And Ye Shiyuan naturally was too embarrassed to say that while he had been asleep, he had actually dreamed of Bai He kissing him.

It was simply too... How could he have such improper thoughts about him?

Ye Shiyuan’s eyes shifted away slightly, and he turned his head, somewhat embarrassed to face Bai He.

However, this action surprised Bai He. What did Ye Shiyuan mean by this?

"Shiyuan, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"I am already fine. I will go find Senior Qin Tao, say goodbye to him, and then we will return to the ninth floor."

Ye Shiyuan quickly got out of bed. He walked away very quickly, leaving Bai He scratching his hair with a puzzled expression.

What was wrong with him? Was he really feeling uncomfortable somewhere?

"Host, judging from the analysis of Ye Shiyuan just now, it is most likely because he is embarrassed. Did you do something inappropriate to him?"

Faced with Mo Zhu’s words, Bai He insisted that there was no way he would have done anything inappropriate to Ye Shiyuan.
