The Emperor and his lover

Chapter 37| Reunion

Huang Dewei wore his clothes and hides all of his wounds as much as he could. Put a sword at his side then knock on the door and entered inside. He walked as his gaze fell on the bed where he met Wang Lei's eyes and he felt the world stop around them. Their eyes were staring deep into each other souls as they could not look away. They felt a desire to just stare at each other because they unknowingly had actually missed each other. 

Huang Dewei felt relieved seeing him all alive while he slowly walked because his feet were still in pain due to getting burnt. Even though he had been putting medicine on his wounds for the past few days, they were still not completely healed. Wang Lei took in his presence and he felt overwhelmed and happy seeing him alive but the way he was walking, he could tell he was not all well. He kept his gaze on him as Huang Dewei stopped in front of him then bowed down and greeted him

'How are you feeling, your Majesty?' Huang Dewei asked as Xin Ying and Chen Ju looked at him. Xin Ying was also happy to see him alive as she was helping Wang Lei to sit up on the bed whereas Chen Ju was sitting at the side and she hatefully glared at him that he was still alive.

'Weiwei...I thought I will never see you again.' Wang Lei said as he weakly smile at him while Xin Ying and Chen Ju were surprised by two things. One on the nickname he called him. Wang Lei, the cold Emperor of Wang Lei, called someone lovingly with a nickname was something to be shocked about and second, the way he confessed about not seeing was like a separated lover confession to his lover that he missed him. Xin Ying and Chen Ju looked at each other but said nothing while Huang Dewei and Wang Lei did not notice their strange expressions nor did they care.

'I am happy to see you alive too, your Majesty.' Huang Dewei respectfully in response as Wang Lei sighed and looked towards Xin Ying who was sitting right next to him.

'I am fine...you should go and have some rest.' Wang Lei said as he ordered her and Xin Ying looked between them and then nodded her head. She bowed down and walked out because she understood Wang Lei wanted to be left alone with him. She felt jealous but now she does not want to repeat any stupid mistake in her jealousy that would cause harm to both Wang Lei and Huang Dewei. He was becoming his concubine soon in future anyway so she would be sharing Wang Lei with him anyway so what's the point of envy. But it still does hurt seeing how lovingly he acts with him. As much as it hurt Xin Ying, she decided to take time and accept it. All that mattered to her was giving birth to the next Emperor since as Wang Lei's wife, that was still her right. Meanwhile, on the other hand, Chen Ju glared at Huang Dewei and stood up. 

'I will go and get your food.' Chen Ju said and came out herself because since Wang Lei knew that it was her who was behind this poisoning act, he was not talking with her. He let her sit or be around him but no talking. She angrily walked out leaving them behind while they were just staring at each other.

'Come here...come to me, Weiwei.' Wang Lei whispered weakly calling him to come closer and Huang Dewei quickly walked and moved closer to him. Wang Lei held his hand and made him sit down on the bed with him.

'Are you in a lot of pain?' Wang Lei asked as he lovingly touched his face.

'I am fine...you are the one who is in pain, your Majesty.' Huang Dewei said back as Wang Lei just weakly smile.

'I am happy to see you all safe...I was scared for a second that you may have gone far away from me.' Wang Lei confessed and Huang Dewei looked at him and then just smiled back at him.

'Did they torture you a lot?' Wang Lei asked and Huang Dewei looked toward him and smile. 

'Yes.' Huang Dewei simply answered truthfully and Wang Lei sighed painfully. He could tell Huang Dewei was in pain. He looks all weak...there were signs and marks on his face so he could only wonder how many he would have over his body.
