Gu Rong's eyes gently fluttered open the next day. He looked at the white ceiling above and felt it was different compared to his bedroom. He turned his head to the side and felt a presence near his hand.
His eyes stretched wide and his light dizziness snapped away seeing Yating's head rest on the bed. He exhaled soft breaths, fast asleep.
Gu Rong couldn't immediately grasp the situation but it slowly occurred to him that he was at the hospital. With that, the memories of last night started flooding in.
His calm breaths began to grow laborious and he trembled. Yating, who was dozing off, felt his movements and woke up. He gasped seeing Gu Rong shaking and shuddering so unstably.
"Dad!"
Standing on his feet, he quickly held his shoulders. "Dad, I am here. What happened? I will call the doctor!"
Gu Rong vigorously shook his head and stared at him with tears in his eyes. "Don't leave…Are you leaving my side?" He breathlessly asked.
