When Chu Yun got back to their bedroom, Xiao Zai looked exactly the same as when he'd left him.
Part of Chu Yun had hoped he would have made a miraculous recovery in the meantime, and so saved Chu Yun from having to go forward with his decision.
But he was still trapped in a deceptively tranquil-looking sleep.
Chu Yun sat down next to his head and adjusted the silk sheets around his shoulders.
"You are very troublesome, did you know?" he said, unable to hold back the smile that tugged at the corner of his lips. "You're always causing trouble for me."
He wanted to lean down and kiss the laughter off of Xiao Zai's lips, as he would have done if he were awake.
Xiao Zai always made him feel like he was the funniest person on earth. One of the many delights of being married to him.
Chu Yun missed to sound of his laughter. So hard to come by when they first met, and then so abundant and free the more they got to know each other.
