In the evening, after the therapy session, the two of them took the car back together. Sitting side by side in the carriage, Ruan Xiao quietly looked at the sunset outside the window. Suddenly, he heard Feng Zhan speak, his voice slightly hoarse.
“Do you really like Xia Sheng so much?”
Ruan Xiao turned to look at him in confusion, unable to discern any emotions on his expressionless and resolute face.
Seeing Ruan Xiao’s silence, Feng Zhan continued, “Liking him to the point where you know what kind of person he is, yet still choose him without hesitation.”
Ruan Xiao understood that he was referring to the time during his heat when he chose Xia Sheng to accompany him. Not sure if he was imagining things, he seemed to catch a hint of inexplicable emotion in Feng Zhan’s deep black eyes.

Feng Zhan pressed his lips tightly, and a shadow passed over his eyes. After a moment of silence, he spoke again, “I have never considered you as a substitute.”
Ruan Xiao just chuckled, not taking Feng Zhan’s explanation seriously at all. “You don’t need to explain to me. Your actions have nothing to do with me from now on.”
Feng Zhan knew that Ruan Xiao didn’t believe his words. However, unlike Xia Sheng, he couldn’t shamelessly explain and coax in every situation. In the end, he just deeply glanced at Ruan Xiao’s cold and aloof face and remained silent.
Ruan Xiao still couldn’t understand Feng Zhan’s inner thoughts, but he sensed a deep and complex expression in Feng Zhan’s eyes when he looked at him. Whether it was his own illusion or not, he even felt that Feng Zhan’s expression seemed a bit hurt at this moment.
Silence prevailed throughout the journey until they reached their destination. When Ruan Xiao got off the car and headed back to his room, Feng Zhan still wore that somewhat injured and silent expression.
A full day of rehabilitation had indeed left Ruan Xiao exhausted. After returning to his room, he freshened up briefly and went to bed to rest.
He slept soundly throughout the night, waking up in the morning feeling a bit heavy in his chest. The room was filled with a faint scent of cedar. Struggling to wake up, he saw Feng Zhan peacefully asleep, one hand resting on his waist and the other holding his hand, reminiscent of their time together during amnesia.
For a moment, Ruan Xiao felt a sense of déjà vu, but he quickly snapped out of it. Without much hesitation, he gently withdrew his hand from Feng Zhan’s grip and moved the arm that was draped over him. Then, he propped himself up on the bed.
In the midst of these movements, it was impossible for Feng Zhan, lying next to him, not to wake up. Upon opening his eyes, he was met with the cold gaze of Ruan Xiao. Caught red-handed, Feng Zhan wasn’t particularly embarrassed. He ruffled his somewhat disheveled hair, got up from the bed, and turned to glance at Ruan Xiao, who was still observing his every move.
“Do you want to sleep a little longer or get up?” Feng Zhan asked, receiving no response from Ruan Xiao. He continued, “Should I ask Zhang Mo to come and take you for washing up?”
Ruan Xiao’s phoenix-like eyes remained calm and unruffled. He gazed at Feng Zhan, who had just woken up but still possessed an exceptionally handsome face. Suddenly, Ruan Xiao spoke in a calm tone, “Feng Zhan, from now on, I’ll lock the door when I sleep. This kind of thing is really pointless.”
