Blazing Armor

In recent days, Ren Yi had either been at the hospital or out handling his father’s affairs after his passing. It is during this time that the disadvantages of being all alone become apparent; he has to do everything himself, filling out those cold documents, arranging the items needed for the funeral, and listening to people discuss account closures or funerals in an emotionless manner—these are people who were once his closest kin, now reduced to mere repetitive, mundane work or business. Being forced to confirm the fact that his father is no longer alive in this way, over and over again, is nothing but torment for him.AifDCjBOOEYqQlsxthleiBWxrajeEk

Originally, Qu Yangbo and Gao Ge wanted to help him, but he refused them; this is something he must handle personally.sbnlcVgMxKbwsSniTaasCYutNdLypG

However, later on, he had no choice but to let them assist, as the leaders from the headquarters wanted to talk to him, not only to posthumously award his father a first-class merit as a martyr but also to establish him as a hero model for the Ministry of Emergency Management, with extensive media coverage.NNUVCLvmlJnmYVOHXnVJnHZIYkvdCd

Ren Yi feels that his father deserves these accolades and medals, and he understands the good intentions of the headquarters, but his only request is that he not be on camera and that his name not be mentioned. He does not want any unwashed stigma from the internet to cast even a shadow of doubt on his father; he wants his father to leave this world with dignity.NifNwrvdpcPPNrRExBRuFZbEYrcCJu

After a busy day, he hurried back to the hospital, eager to see Gong Yingxian immediately.adGeSpYZFiSgTpHxTxrCMTlPVYVyOg

Since the incident, he has basically been living at the hospital. He does not want to go home; he is all alone there, and it feels too desolate. He also does not want to return to the team; the concerned gazes and cautious attitudes suffocate him.xSyQlxzlBVzYkuUEtuomgYGuwpIMTQ

Gong Yingxian has given him a place he wants to return to, even if that place is the hospital, which he least wants to step into.TmLgitqvIJLeGmslYJLPRnbqdlwrpw

“Is he eating?” Ren Yi walked over and ruffled Gong Yingxian’s hair. “What’s wrong, Uncle Sheng? Has he finished eating?”QZdhBqXjWPPBTPYTJBqdfGOORBEcoZ

“He only had breakfast all day; he wouldn’t eat if you didn’t come back,” Uncle Sheng sighed.QmRKDzbbDMdWyIrJwIjfKOZSjuQqTq

Gong Yingxian looked at him without saying a word.qhFxCPbjlmfiuABtbTsbjnVUuvMaXR

Gong Yingxian continued to look at him.fSMzANCZDIUBxIoZfYbumTSCaXueWr

“I haven’t eaten either. Tell me, which one is good?” Ren Yi followed Dr. Pompeii’s advice to guide Gong Yingxian to communicate with him.MNwpeuzTMwplVvNpydCveinwSGKPrt

After a moment of hesitation, Gong Yingxian picked up a piece of golden-fried tofu and put it in his mouth. The tofu had a crispy golden exterior, but the inside was soft and tender. Initially, it was at a palatable temperature, but once bitten, the warmth of the tender tofu spread like jelly in his mouth. For an ordinary person, it might just feel a bit hot, but Gong Yingxian, who had not eaten hot food for a long time, was extremely sensitive to high temperatures; for him, it was scalding.NXKpKaPCxOMdKXnILmcwdzYXcivcij

DGbIQeHaVSLPDsY

He winced from the heat, opened his mouth to spit it out, and the tofu mixed with saliva dribbled down the corners of his mouth, splattering on the table and his clothes. Normally, Gong Yingxian was very particular about his appearance; even when shot, he cared more about the bloodstains than the wound. He would never have made such a mess over a small piece of tofu, but at this moment, he was completely unfazed, scalded or not, he just spat it out.bpzlofuxWbOJtvtZLXBvcUgZeMYWNo

Ren Yi quickly wiped his mouth, soothing him as he did: “It’s okay, don’t eat this anymore, what a bad thing, I won’t eat it either.” He handed Gong Yingxian some water, “Drink some water.”SvMbaOjbbJNZPvlVLarzmDLtOEbOnJ

Ren Yi maintained a forward-leaning posture, offering himself for “tasting,” but after a while, his waist began to ache. He wanted to change positions, but when he lowered his head, he was startled.lDFJnwiMZvTvCBuGHPTaYvALSWonPj

Ren Yi’s heart stirred, recalling what Dr. Pompeii had said about communication and interaction. The more they communicate and interact, the more it could help Gong Yingxian break out of his shell. So, without thinking, he reached out.LYnhbhHVUGvpoAIWnUIBeFpyvMzDjO

Ren Yi felt a bit anxious as he fumbled, while Gong Yingxian closed his eyes and hummed, continuously calling his name. Each call was clear, sincere, and filled with longing and dependence, reminding him of the times when Gong Yingxian had whispered his name in his ear during their passionate moments. Gong Yingxian had always been like this, reluctant to say much during those times, only loving to call his name.bqURSznZPUnScxZEBRvHmSrIWcpXIz

This made Ren Yi feel as if he was burning with heat all over. But he dared not go further; facing the innocent Gong Yingxian, if he were to truly do something, it would feel like taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable state.XyUqvwYhninTJYFkQekCjJvuWjOwaC

Afterward, Gong Yingxian became even more obedient than usual; feeding him went smoothly, and changing the dressing was also without issue.smJZgIEpXLcarzQYDXtBFAKfylUtLx

However, looking at the burns on Gong Yingxian’s leg, the charred flesh mixed with medicine looked muddy and rotten, a sight too painful to bear. This was not the first time Ren Yi had seen such a thing, but each time he looked, it felt like a suffocating heartache. He had spent his life dealing with burn injuries—first seeing his father’s, then his father’s comrades’, and after becoming a firefighter, witnessing the suffering of victims, including his own and his comrades’ injuries. He had several burn scars himself, but none as extensive as this. He knew what the pain of burns felt like, and now he understood even more what it felt like to see someone he loved suffer. Watching Gong Yingxian drenched in sweat, his face pale, he wished he could take the pain upon himself.ywjhaHnrFnuaekpguyyABBRHzTTMhb

Not caring that the doctor was present, Ren Yi bent down and hugged Gong Yingxian, turning his head gently to comfort him: “Let’s not look anymore, we won’t look, it will be fine soon.”SoDHuVUZQCtWkMgAxOcZEpDmjsFgPR

Tentatively, Ren Yi kissed him on the forehead again, careful not to let the nurse see. Gong Yingxian’s eyes lit up; even though his face showed no obvious joy or anger, as if his facial muscles were sealed, Ren Yi could still tell he was happy.TFeeXJohpFfWRKsndXsANfIbyeiOnw

Ren Yi felt a mix of amusement and embarrassment, thinking that when he usually teased Gong Yingxian, he would often blush and act all prim and proper. If he teased too much, Gong Yingxian would “change his temperament,” becoming unrestrained and almost unrecognizable. Now, however, he seemed much more open.BuKSbILMLwbGTNZqzTaWpinqUmsdyT

So, Ren Yi kissed him again, this time on the cheek, then on the lips.YfflDQgJMixoQppDlqCJbkhRIXYPYJ

After the dressing change, Ren Yi sat at the bedside peeling an orange, the orange segments plump and bright, feeding one to Gong Yingxian and taking one for himself, eating while saying: “Tomorrow, my dad’s funeral will be held. It won’t be from home but from the team. You know, my dad used to be in the Phoenix team, though it wasn’t called that before; there was a major restructuring a few years ago.”RKFDcNXHqSFVwvrbuuHqdFPnzdrRpW

Gong Yingxian chewed on the orange, listening attentively.GBijuWWQfLjfwafHVYCOjLKbIuaHSO

Ren Yi didn’t care whether Gong Yingxian understood; he continued talking: “This is our custom, I guess. If the family is local, the funeral is held from the team. Even though my dad retired long ago, his heart never left the team. This time, the headquarters awarded him a first-class merit as a martyr posthumously. They had wanted to do it before; I told you about it, right? My dad did something great during the Baosheng Chemical Plant explosion, he led several soldiers and workers to survive under the rubble for seven days and nights. They wanted to award him a first-class merit back then, what an honor to be alive and receive such a merit, but he didn’t accept it. He said that while he received the same first-class merit, he was alive, and his comrades had died; he couldn’t accept it. This time, finally…” He paused while peeling the orange, his hands trembling slightly.BLbrVMWAppnBQkxAcLmKtZlEEYlsLX

“Yes, tomorrow, we’ll depart from the team.

Ren Yi spoke softly: “I want to take you too, but your wound is in a critical healing period right now. If you go out and get infected, it would be troublesome. Once you’re better, you can be discharged from the hospital; it won’t be long.” Uncle Sheng and Dr. Pompeii had already prepared the necessary medical equipment at the Gong family home, waiting for Gong Yingxian’s burns to pose no infection risk before he could be discharged, as psychological treatment might take a long time.FEgEViIOVItxRrhbDEeJACvUsYkPti

Dr. Pompeii was even happier: “You see, this is one of the reasons he is easier to treat as an adult than as a child. Such reactions can greatly stimulate him. I encourage you to stimulate him as much as possible and see if you can go further.”bOumhFUPGRXSLppsMTgyqYUMTWrrwt

Dr. Pompeii patted his shoulder: “Trust me, just kisses and touches can elicit such feedback. The more stimulation, the more feedback you’ll get.

Ren Yi naturally knew what a medical waiver agreement was; Gong Yingxian had once tricked him into signing one for Dr. Pompeii to perform deep hypnosis on his father.
