Villain Saving System (BL)

Running in the middle of the night, especially when his head was still throbbing and blood was trickling down his ears, was soon proven to be a bad idea.

As soon as Lu Yizhou arrived in front of the hospital and saw a nurse whom he recognized as one of Doctor Wyatt’s trusted personnel, he all but crashed to the ground, sending a flurry of panic and ruckus throughout the entire hospital. Lu Yizhou was hastily brought into the private ward where Doctor Wyatt had been waiting, hissing. "Don’t you know what time it is now, General Kai?! Are you done creating headline news everywhere?!"

From their interaction these past few days, Lu Yizhou had come to learn that the doctor was all bark and no bite. He merely huffed in a rueful chuckle and gestured toward his face. "I know you’re definitely complaining right now, doctor but I’m sorry, my ears are not working properly." Then he proceeded to tell the President’s address to seek medical help for the two poor people he had left behind.

"Oh shit." Doctor Wyatt took out his walkie talkie and barked out a series of commands to send people there, seal the ward and prevent any unauthorized people from intruding. After that, he finally examined Lu Yizhou’s bleeding ears and cursed out another storm. Lu Yizhou was pushed into a very familiar emergency room that reeked heavily of disinfectant, alcohol and chlorine, and he hissed in pain when the lamp switched on above him, eyes squeezing shut. His attempt to struggle out of the discomfort was curbed away when Doctor Wyatt shoved him back down. "Please don’t move, General, or I will be forced to bind you to the bed. Again."

The door behind them slid open and Doctor Wyatt scowled, turning. "What now—" He took in the person standing on the door, a surprise sound escaped his throat. "Terra," his voice became softer and more patient. "What are you doing here?"

Even though Lu Yizhou’s ears were buzzing and his vision was swimming, there was no way he would have missed his lover’s presence. Especially his sweet scent that was heavenly compared to the other suffocating smells in the room. Propping himself up by elbow, he groaned, "Terra...?"

Terra seemed to snap out of the trance he was in by Lu Yizhou’s call. Still with his face pale and distraught, he hurried to Lu Yizhou’s bedside and ran his eyes all over his body. Lu Yizhou could sense the guide’s fear, apprehension and anxiety leaking out through his barrier and he fumbled in search of his hand before holding it tight. "Don’t worry, I will recover soon." The corner of his lips twitched when Doctor Wyatt seized the opportunity when he was distracted to inject something into his arm. The effect got into his system soon. The pain on his head dulled into a numbing throb and it was getting harder and harder to keep his eyelids open when he was striving to take a look at his lover’s features amidst the blurry blobs of lights and colors.

A cool and soothing sensation traveled from where he was holding onto Terra’s hand throughout his whole body. Rest, the guide tried to project reassurance into him. Please have a rest.

Lu Yizhou let out a brief chuckle and let himself be dragged down into slumber willingly.
