On the day that Ziyou Heping died, it was raining. Almost like the sky was mourning him. That would be nice because maybe only the sky knew how many times Ziyou Heping cried by that window, gazing into the sky and wishing with all his might to have a change.
This change could be where he himself stopped being a coward, and that magically all the small details he hated about himself that others may not have noticed. The thing he hated most but held dear was in fact, his cowardly pride.
It would be nice if the sky mourned him because unlike his family, the sky may have mourned his truest self and not that mechanical doll that would bend to his family's will. Though, this was probably his wishful thinking.
However, it seemed that sky he loved to watch, granted his wish. That was what Ziyou Heping thought as he realized he had been reborn. However, a sad but joyous truth is that he wasn't reborn into that body and life he hated again, but a new one.
Ziyou Heping closed his eyes and began to sort out his thoughts, both his own and the memories of the original. Sifting through the memories to find the important parts, Ziyou Heping realized that the original was different then him but at the same time the same.
He had a loving family, but it still felt cold. The original had always been a gentle and sensitive child, but when you place a young child like this in a difficult environment for a long time, the child becomes cold and detached. The originals mother and father divorced and remarried few years later and were still together from what is said in the original's memories.
When they divorced the original was going through some health issues since he was born with a complicated birth. This paired with the fights and divorce of his parents made him become emotionally detached and introverted. Later when his parents remarried his mother had brought back a little brother from her ex-boyfriend. The estrangement he felt with his mother made him feel confused especially when you're suddenly given a younger brother who has a different father then you.
From what Ziyou Heping found in the memories, the original's family is definitely a loving family however after all that it was hard for the original to truly trust and rely on this family.
Now the original is in the hospital having been poisoned by his supposed friend. The reason? Simple, the original is not only from a rich family, but from a family that is one of the richest in the country. Plus there are many reasons and benefits the poisoner could get. Though Ziyou Heping did not think the supposed friend of the original, did this alone.
Ziyou Heping glanced over the hospital room once again. Though he was used to being in a hospital room, this did not mean he was used to one this big. Oh, a window.
The sound of the door opening and closing took Ziyou Heping out of his reverie. The nurse walked in quietly, glancing at Ziyou Heping she realized he was in fact awake. Stunned for moment she quickly spoke up. "Oh! Young master you're awake? Give me a moment I'll give the doctor a call." After saying that the young nurse quickly left the room.
Ziyou Heping gazed at the door the nurse used to leave and enter with in silence. He let out and exhausted sigh and turned his head to look up at the ceiling before closing his eyes once again to think. Patiently waiting for the doctor.
After a checkup the doctor gazed at Ziyou Heping's left hand. The doctor sighed then continued to talk. "It seems like the poison is no longer in your system. However, at the time you had fallen down a long flight of stairs, damaging the Ulnar nerve in your left arm. However as long as you continue the treatment you should have it go back to normal eventually." The doctor paused for a moment then sighed once again.
"Since both your father and mother are away, as well as your brother, you shall be staying with one of your father's trusted friends. Your father had said it currently isn't safe to stay at your family's residence by yourself so he hopes that's fine by you."
The doctor's gaze became gentler as he gazed at the beautiful boy nod his head obediently. Truly a pity that this child grew up in a troubled home. His father also stated that he wished that his son grow used to people and learn to trust again, however he and his wife truly did fail to pay attention to the child's emotions when he was young.
"Your fathers friend is called Yan Chuse, he has a son named Yan Chouyan. His son is two years older then you. Your dad wishes that you can get along with them while your there." The doctor looked at Ziyou Heping for a moment longer before standing up and saying one last thing. "You'll be staying here for a couple more days before we release you alright? Within those days Yan Chuse should come visit. Now if you need anything ask the nurse or press that button. If there's nothing then I shall go now." The doctor waved goodbye before leaving the room.
Ziyou Heping watched the doctors receding figure for moment then looked at the mirror he had asked from the nurse. He had a beautiful face, a very beautiful face. He had big round amber eyes with bits of lighter yellows poking through. However, when he squinted or smiled, his eyes would appear less round and longer, giving a seductive feel. He had delicate and smooth pale skin, paired with his amber eyes giving a nice contrast making him appear more tempting. He had soft and fluffing black hair, paired with his eyes and skin giving another exciting contrast. He also had small but full pinkish red lips. A true little seductive and cute fairy.
Ziyou Heping was dazed for a moment before looking away. The original's mother was foreigner, and it seemed like the original looked more like his mother than father, especially the eyes.
After a few days of staying in the hospital, Yan Chuse finally visited. "Very sorry for not coming sooner, I've been busy lately with my company. I hope you weren't to lonely." Said Yan Chuse with a big silly but gentle grin. Ziyou Heping was dazzled by that grin, although the silly grin ruined the handsome face a bit, you could still not deny that he was truly a handsome man.
Ziyou Heping gazed away from Yan Chuse's face. It seem beautiful people tend to be surrounded by beautiful people. Ziyou Heping's lips unconsciously hooked up when he saw the silly grin on Yan Chuse's face. It's been awhile since someone showed such a sincere smile towards him. It was… nice.
Ziyou Heping looked at Yan Chuse again then opened his mouth to speak. "It's fine, besides the nurses and the doctor came often enough so I wasn't lonely." Ziyou Heping gave a sweet smile to show he wasn't lonely after saying that.
Yan Chuse's brows scrunched up seeing that smile. That smile was similar to the one his son showed until eventually he stopped smiling. Yan Chuse paused for a moment to sort out his words before carefully speaking. "Are you sure? That smile doesn't say you are. My son smiled just like that before he eventually he stopped smiling altogether. It must have been exhausting to smile like that even when you spoke to the people closest to you. Although we haven't spoken often and where not related but would you please let go of that type of smile when were together?"
Ziyou Heping looked at him confusedly, then realized out of reflex he must of put on a fake smile. He had grown used to doing this in his past life. Calling it his past life felt weird to Ziyou Heping. It didn't feel right but what else should he call it?
Ziyou Heping lifted his right hand to touch his mouth for a moment before gazing up at Yan Chuse. Then, in return for that sincere smile he said. "I'll try." That's the most he could do right now, but that may change.
Yes, change. Something he has been wishing for, it was time to change slowly.
