Rui Fei could only set the matter aside for now as he had an urgent issue to attend to. "You guys should sleep early," he said in an earnest tone but something sinister was embedded within, "we can discuss the key-..... thing tomorrow."
He paused for a moment at the word keystone because Ji Yao almost gagged hence he changed his wording instead. As though granted amnesty the two hastily ran out of there like they were afraid that Rui Fei would change his mind.
In a flash, they were gone leaving Rui Fei with much needed alone time with his sweetheart. The smile on his face was conspicuous as he helped Ji Yao lie down. He handed him a cup of water to rinse his mouth while asking, "How are you feeling?"
Ji Yao who had his hand lazily lying on his forehead had sat up halfway as he received the cup. "I feel like shit," he mumbled in a tone that made it seem less of a complaint and more petulant.
