Chapter 112: So Lucky to Have You with Me (II)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
s.h.i.+ Qingshan was totally stunned this time. Only… the only one in his heart?
s.h.i.+ Qingshan looked at his son unbelievably, but s.h.i.+ Qingzhou just smiled.
Finally, s.h.i.+ Qingshan patted his son on the arm and then left…
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou went back to the room. “Your Majesty, are you tired?”
Long nodded. “I’m really tired. I’ll sleep for a while.”
Hearing that, s.h.i.+ helped Long to go to the bed.
After patting his legs, Long got into bed and lay down by himself. It wasn’t that s.h.i.+ didn’t serve him, but that he wanted to move and exercise.
Seeing that it was so hard for Long to lie down, s.h.i.+ really wanted to go to help him. After Long lay in the bed, s.h.i.+ finally felt relieved.
“Qingzhou, you won’t sleep?” Long asked.
s.h.i.+ shook his head. “No, I’ll read the rest of the memorials.”
“All right.” Long stopped talking.
After s.h.i.+ left, Long soon fell asleep.
When Long woke up again, he really wanted to go to the toilet.
Long frowned. Seeing no one in the room, Long planned to go there alone.
He struggled to sit up, but his legs and feet were still clumsy. When Long finally got off the bed, s.h.i.+ came in from outside. “What are you doing, Your Majesty?”
s.h.i.+ rushed to the bed. “Be careful.”
Long smiled bitterly. “I just want to get up myself.”
s.h.i.+ pursed his lips. “Your Majesty, you haven’t recovered yet.”
“Okay, okay, I’m wrong.” Long hurriedly apologized since he didn’t want s.h.i.+ to be angry.
Seeing that Long had admitted his mistake, s.h.i.+ sighed and helped him up. “What do you want to do, Your Majesty?”
“Well…” Long paused for a second. “I want to pee.”
s.h.i.+ didn’t know what to say for the moment.
Long laughed. “That’s a physiological need, alright?”
s.h.i.+ found it amusing. Then, he accompanied Long to answer the nature’s call.
After that, s.h.i.+ accompanied Long to come back. Then, he had water delivered and began to wash Long’s hands by himself.
Long watched s.h.i.+ carefully clean his hands and smiled. “Qingzhou.”
“Hmm?” s.h.i.+ looked up at Long.
Long smiled and said, “I suddenly feel… I feel so good.”
“What?” s.h.i.+ raised his eyebrows and didn’t understand what Long said for the moment.
Long said gently, “It feels good to be taken care of.”
s.h.i.+ smiled after hearing that. “Your Majesty, if you want me to take care of you, I’ll do that forever.”
Long gave a wide smile. “Qingzhou, I’m so lucky to have you with me.”
s.h.i.+’s lips also curled upwardly.
Long reached out his hands and clumsily held s.h.i.+ in his arms.
“I haven’t hugged you for a long time. I almost forget how it feels to hug you.”
s.h.i.+ raised his eyebrows. “That’s not true. You hug me every night while sleeping, don’t you?”
“No.” Long curled his lips. “It’s you who hugged me at that time.”
Hearing that, s.h.i.+ really wanted to laugh.
In the evening, another acupuncture and medicated bath were finished.
Long’s face turned pale with pain. s.h.i.+ asked Zhang Yuan with a frown, “Doctor Zhang, is it so painful every time? Is there any way to improve it?”
Zhang smiled bitterly. “Empress, it is good for the emperor’s recovery.”
s.h.i.+ frowned more deeply.
After hearing that, Long smiled. “Alright, Qingzhou. Don’t make it so hard for him. Doctor Zhang, you may leave.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Zhang knelt down before leaving.
Then, s.h.i.+ accompanied Long to the hot spring.
There was a hot spring in the bathroom at the back. Long and s.h.i.+ stayed there for a while and then they wiped body for each other.
After that, s.h.i.+ helped Long to walk to the bed.
“Hiss…” When Long sat down, his back convulsed. It was so painful that Long’s face turned pale again.
s.h.i.+ hurriedly grabbed Long’s hand and transferred his internal strength to him.
“No.” Long frowned. “Don’t waste your energy.”
s.h.i.+ didn’t say anything and kept doing that.
Long raised his voice. “Qingzhou! Stop!”
s.h.i.+ finally stopped and Long also felt much better.
Looking at s.h.i.+ who pressed his lips together, Long sighed. “Qingzhou, I told you that you didn’t have to do this.”
“It can make you feel better,” s.h.i.+ insisted.
Long smiled bitterly and stopped saying anything…
Long wished he could get better soon.
The next day, maybe heaven had heard Long’s prayer.
Long got up early in the morning and felt much better than the previous day.
s.h.i.+ wasn’t by his side, but Long managed to sit up easily.
He moved his arm and felt it wasn’t so painful.
Long raised his eyebrows.
s.h.i.+ came in from outside. “Your Majesty.”
Long looked over. “Qingzhou, you’re here. I feel much better today.”
“Really?” s.h.i.+ was happy and hurriedly ran over. “Your Majesty, you feel better now?”
“Yes. I’ll try to walk.” After saying that, Long began to move slowly.
Sure enough. Although Long still couldn’t move very fast, he felt more comfortable.
s.h.i.+ was very glad to see that.
Long managed to walk a few steps by himself and he didn’t wobble at all. s.h.i.+ could also see that Long wasn’t forcing himself to do that.
s.h.i.+ laughed. “Your Majesty, you’re really much better.”
“Yes.” Long was also very happy.
Long wished he would be better soon. Otherwise, s.h.i.+ would blame himself several times a day!
Long thought it was his decision to go for a walk that day… and it had nothing to do with his Qingzhou. He really didn’t want his lover to feel guilty!
