It all started with a lesson (Yizhan/Wnagxiao)

Chapter 30: Waking up

(･_･; hello...
It's been a year :)
Uh I wouldn't have realised if someone didn't contact me on Twitter lol.

Sorry 😖😖😖

It's been a busy year. Uh my mental health is a bit better if anyone's worried about me and uh I'm doing mostly ok and uh yeah....

Here is my first update in a LONG time. I make no promises but I will hopefully get back to doing monthly updates. Do not expect weekly updates from me cause even I don't trust myself to do them.

I also uh won't make any excuses for disappearing.

WYB:

Wang Yibo woke up to bright light. His entire body felt vaguely itchy and his head ached. He tried to sit up and struggled several times only to feel the numbing ache in his head grow clearer. Something was taped onto the back of his hand but he fought the urge to rip whatever annoying device they'd attached to him and fling it across the room.

His eyes adjusted eventually and he realised that while he could see the large bed he was laying in, the dark grey walls of the room, the heart monitor next to his bedside table — he could not hear.

He figured his eardrums probably received some hefty damage from the noise. At least he'd been saved.

Wang Yibo recognised the clothes he was wrapped in. He was wearing a navy blue silk hospital gown but what caught his eye was the white and blue logo stitched neatly over the cloth hiding his rising chest. Yeah, he'd been saved alright. Save and placed in a hospital run by his own brother.

Who else would give him silk hospital gowns and a king sized bed?

The bed dipped from his left. Wang Yibo realised he had a visiter he didn't notice before due to his lack of hearing. Luckily, his visitor came prepared.

Richard handed Yibo a cell phone. It was switched on and displayed a chat interface.

Richard: You woke up a lot faster than the doctors predicted, it's only been a day and a half. Your eardrums are damaged but will heal. You'll experience some headaches and whilst the action of laying flat did save you from a lot of suffering it did take a while for us to find you. There are a number of burns on your arms and legs - luckily nothing too serious. No broken bones but a few bruises.

Yibo read through Richard's report before struggling to type.

...

Yibo: Mission? My brother? Xiao Zhan?

Richard shot Yibo a complicated expression.

Richard: The mission was not a success. They got away with her. You're brother only came to visit you a few times yesterday and has since left the city in order to attend a cooperative event at city J. As for Mr. Zhan, I've merely informed him that you were in a road accident.

Richard. He's been asking to see you but I've told him the hospital won't allow any visitors until you wake up.

For now, there was no point in worrying about the mission. Yibo trusted his subordinates enough to know they'd be alright even without him for a while. He pondered for a while before nodding to Richard. Beckoning with his left hand, telling Richard to let Xiao Zhan visit.

I know this chapter is pretty short but consider it me getting back into it lol. Like it's a little hard for me to get back into... this fic's headspace because re-reading my writing tends to make me cringe. So uh yeah.

THIS IS FICTIONN!!!!

Thank you for not abandoning me after a year if you're still here~~

And see? I promised I'd be back and I am~~~

Btw bomb scene is quite short but might make feature as flashback later on in the story but like there's no point in fleshing it out cause I planned from the beginning that this mission was gonna have to fail.
