Yibo helplessly watched this horror for the second time. He recalled the words Xiao Zhan just spoke; "I fell in love with you the moment you walked into my office, complaining of a tummy ache. I've liked you since then. I'm sorry I wasn't bold enough to say something sooner. Know that this heart of mine belongs to you. If I can't give it to you in this world, I'd give it to you in another. Don't cry Bo, this is not the end for us".
These words seemed to give him some energy and motivation. He got up and picked Xiao Zhan. Help wasn't forth coming, he couldn't wait for an ambulance. He ran towards the direction of the nearest hospital, ignoring the pain in his back and the blood he was losing.
This seemingly little effort Yibo put in completely changed the whole fate of this world. As Yibo ran, Zhan who was falling 'asleep' was rocked violently disturbing his sleep. He soon realized Yibo had carried him and was running.
"Bo...", he wanted to say 'put me down' but he was too weak to speak.
"Stay with me Zhan ge, please stay with me".
These words, Zhan could swear he had heard them before from Yibo but he couldn't make any sense out of it. For Yibo's sake, he decided to fight the urge to sleep off. "I'd stay Bo, I'd try", He whispered but Yibo couldn't hear him as his voice was muffled by the sound of a siren. The ambulance was finally here.
......
Zhan had been in the hospital for 2 weeks and Yibo didn't leave his side. For the first few days, he needed blood to be transfused and Yibo generously donated. Even though he lost some blood, it was not to the extent that he couldn't donate. Zhan's condition was stable now. He woke up a few times but couldn't recognize anyone as he was still under the effects of the medication.
Yibo was mostly healed now. He was glad Xiao Zhan was doing well but until he was discharged, Yibo could not stop being anxious.
It was late at night and Yibo awakened from his sleep by a certain feeling of weightlessness. When he opened his eyes, he found himself surrounded by nothing but white. He had returned to his personal space.
"Zhan ge..."
"He's fine", AK's voice spoke. "You succeeded Yibo, even I am surprised. Congratulations. Keep it up 6 more times and Xiao Zhan will make it".
It was indeed Xiao Zhan's 30th birthday today. At exactly 12am, main Yibo's consciousness was pulled out of the body and he returned to the personal space.
"No, I need to go back, what if he wakes up and doesn't find me? How would he cope?"
"Don't worry about it. Yibo is still with him, just your consciousness had been removed. They will continue to live their lives. Their fates are tied just like you and your Xiao Zhan".
Yibo touched his ears, he never saw those earrings after touching them the first time. It turns out the earrings left once they had served their purpose.
Yibo was relieved but he felt sad. He was reluctant to leave Xiao Zhan no matter which life. This Zhan was actually in love with him. He hoped they could be together till old age..
"They will be. Remember your own Zhan still awaits you. Once Xiao Zhan makes it to the age of 30, it might be smooth sailing from then on. He should live a long and happy life. You've done well Yibo".
Knowing this put Yibo's mind at peace. He inquired what do to next.
"You can stay here for some time to rest, put your emotions in order or go straight to the next world...".
The thought of seeing Xiao Zhan again after just separating from him helped Yibo make a quick decision.
Again before AK could finish speaking, Yibo was gone once again.
