Yibo was sitting next to Xiao Zhan's bed, waiting for him to wake up; the doctor checked on him and said that the wound was open and bleeding from the inside, so they closed it again and said it would take another month to heal.
The wound needs time to heal from inside and the sudden hard kick and fights in the war open it again. The doctor said to be more careful if they need it to heal faster.
He sighed and got up to leave to bring something to drink; when he returned, he saw him trying to sit on the bed.
"What Are You Trying To Do?! Don't Move Yet!". He rushed to him and pushed him to lie down again.
"Prince Yibo, how is everything??". He asked, and Yibo smiled at him.
"Everything is fine and under control, we are safe". Xiao Zhan sighed and looked around.
"Where is Zhou Cheng??".
"With my brother in the palace, don't worry about him," Xiao Zhan said, looking at Yibo.
"Are you okay, Prince Yibo? You didn't get hurt, right?" Yibo nodded with a smile and gently patted Xiao Zhan's head.
"I'm fine".
"Sorry for making you take care of me and seeing me like this". He said but Yibo shakes his head and sits on the edge of the bed next to him.
"No it's fine, you always risk your life to save me, in the end, I wasn't that fast to defeat the soldier who attacked us in the dark, yet you...with your injury stood up and defeated him, I need to do something for you, and this is nothing compared to what you did to me until now". Xiao Zhan smiled at him.
"This is my duty". Yibo held his hand, and silence fell on them.
"....Your real name....Xiao Zhan".
"Yes".
"Umm...I'm sorry for what I did before; I am sorry for making you feel uncomfortable in any way". Xiao Zhan nodded.
"Apology accepted; thank you for considering my feelings". Yibo sighed and smiled at him, he was afraid that Xiao Zhan will not accept his apology.
"From now on, we will start a new page, like we are new friends". He shook Xiao Zhan's hand and Xiao Zhan giggled a little at him and shook his hand gladly.

At night in the palace, Hai Kuan gets up and checks on Zhuo Cheng; he finds him crying in his sleep and calling his parents and brother; he caresses his hair slowly as he takes the small towel and wipes his sweat.
"Everything will be ok, don't worry". Suddenly, Zhuo Cheng held his hand and put it under his cheeks. Hai Kuan wanted to giggle, but he smiled, seeing him acting cute; he sat on the floor and looked at his face.
"Where is the aggressive Jiang Cheng that I know? You become someone else when you are asleep". He said as he brushed Zhuo Cheng's hair away from his forehead to look at his face.
"You are the only one who stayed the longest time next to me until now". Zhuo Cheng moves a little and calls his mother with a smile. Hai Kuan smiles at him and caresses his hair gently.
*******************************************************************************
A few days later, Xiao Zhan and Yibo return to the palace.
"I will go to see Kuan-ge in his room, take your time". Yibo left for his brother's room, and Zhuo Cheng hugged his brother.
"How are you? Are you seriously fine now??". He asked, and Xiao Zhan smiled at him.
