He was 188 cm tall, wearing black silk shirt and black linen trousers. His face was gorgeous and delicate with a pair of deep eyes, predominant nose bridge, thin lips, and amazing eyebrows. He was Nancheng Lie, an attractive spotlight even standing still there without making a pose.

Nancheng Lie was calm on the outside but deep inside he felt something. It was not that he fell in love with the man in front of him at first sight, but that he recognized him. He was one of his lovers, once. All he could remember about him was that when he had found Xu after the gunshot two years ago, this man was also there down the hill.

It was just... Although memories about this man kept coming in, it was not too much. He remembered that this young man groaned under his body during the sex. It was completely different from this calm and noble man who was standing in front him now.

"Long time no see." Putting his doubts aside, he started to judge this man in a whole new way, "you woke up?"

He remembered that when he sent Xu and him to the hospital two years ago, the doctor announced the worst situation although his life was saved. It was a miracle as well as a torture that he became a vegetable. Unexpectedly this man woke up!?

"Yes. It's been half a month." They were once best friends who grew up together but now with this face, it felt like they were a thousand miles away.

Nancheng Lie was smiling as always. Unfortunately, he was gentle to everyone. In other words, there was no special one in his heart. He felt sorry for those who pleased him. The family he came from was attractive.

"I should apologize to you on Xu’s behalf because he got you in all of these." Nancheng Lie sat down on the sofa and patted the seat beside him.

Li Qinghao was confused too because he never thought Nancheng Lie, his best friend, would be so cool to talk to his old lover like nothing had happened between them. He felt like he barely knew him now. "Han Mingxu came by the day I woke up and he already apologized. It's just...”There was kind of doubt in his clear eyes. “I was curious about the real situation that night."

"Oh?" Looking at Li Qinghao meaningfully, Nancheng Lie did not continue.

Li Qing felt kind of guilty by being stared by that pair of eagle eyes. So he stared back at Nancheng Lie. While they were looking into each other’s eyes, they could hear each other’s heart’s pounding, every single beat.

"What a scene!" someone said with a teasing tone with a deep voice while h walking upstairs. And soon as he showed up at the stairway, the two came around. "Qinghao." The familiar voice didn’t relieve him but instead made his hair stand on end.

Because it was Han Mingxu, that Han Mingxu who took up his body.

"Han Mingxu." He involuntarily leaned toward Nancheng Lie and held his sleeve with his slender fingers. Both Nancheng Lie and Han Mingxu noticed his response. The former was intrigued that how completely different this young man was before and after Han came in, and the latter was confused why the young man suddenly became an innocent rabbit.
