My Boyfriend Is A Dragon

After getting Xiao Feng’s permission, Xu Lan went to visit Lan Er who was still in an unstable state. Lan Er’s body was full of horrifying injuries, it was hard to imagine what he had gone through. How did the system got past Lan Er’s defenses and made him work toward the goal as determined as the pilgrims at Jerusalem?

“When Meng Zi told me that you have returned, I honestly did not believe in him. How are you both?” Lan Er was in his blue and white striped hospital clothing. He was resting in bed and smiled after noticing Xu Lan.

“We’re good, thank you.” Xu Lan was ashamed and kept his gaze away from Lan Er. He fumbled with his pocket and replied uncomfortably.

“Haha, you guys must make good use of these great materials so that the pain and suffering that I’ve gone through will be worth it,” Lan Er chuckled candidly.

Xie San walked in grumpily. He glanced at Xu Lan and greeted him with a curt nod. He replaced the flowers in the vase with the flowers Xu Lan brought over. When he was done, he sat next to the hospital bed and started cutting apples quietly.

Wang Meng and Xiao Feng came in after Xie San. Suddenly, the ward was transformed into a makeshift office. Lan Er offered his opinion when it came to things that mattered.

“Right! I heard that you and Bai Wu are a thing now?” Lan Er asked out of nowhere when they were taking a break. He wondered curiously as he always thought Xu Lan was a straight man and could not fathom how he developed for Bai Wu all of a sudden.

“Uh huh, that’s right,” Xu Lan smiled gently when he thought of Bai Wu. He was not as gloomy as he was during the case discussion anymore.

“Haha, Meng Zi’s instinct is spot-on! Do I owe you a meal?” Lan Er glanced at Wang Meng and raised his brow as he said teasingly.

“Heck! Hurry up and recover so that you can buy me a meal! You must buy me a meal!” Wang Meng cursed.

“You know, we actually saw. We saw Bai Wu when he got angry,” Lan Er was munching on the apple cut by Xie San when he said casually.

“Lan Er!” Xiao Feng shouted urgently.

Xu Lan’s heart fell. His muscles tensed and his brows furrowed. He was unsure why Lan Er brought the matter up all of a sudden and he started scanning through the people in the room.

“Don’t worry, we mean no harm. Now that we know, there’s no need for you to hide it anymore. If you are facing any difficulties, you can talk to us about it too. After all, we’re all on the same boat now. I heard you’re not feeling yourself lately? That won’t do. Sergeant Xiao speaks highly of you and we’re really looking forward to having you as our colleague once the case has been solved. If you were to continue in such condition, it’ll put all of us in a tough spot.”

Lan Er said everything in one go, without any aggression whatsoever. Xu Lan was embarrassed. Meanwhile, Xie San stepped out for a phone call. Xiao Feng and Wang Meng were both looking at Xu Lan with hints of disappointment in their eyes.

“I knew something was going on with you! Xiao Xu, do you not see me as your brother anymore? What’s going on with you lately? You haven’t been doing much ever since you told us that you’re going official with Bai Wu!” Wang Meng rolled his sleeves up and charged at Xu Lan. Fortunately, Xiao Feng held Wang Meng back and saved Xu Lan’s face from his attacks.

“Sorry, I won’t repeat this anymore. I’ve found someone to partner up with now and I think it’s best for you guys to be kept in the dark. It’s nothing glorious, not to all humans.” Xu Lan smiled bitterly.

“Now that you know, you should really buck up! Stop using your resignation as an excuse!” Xiao Feng started smoking and the entire ward was filled with smoke instantly.

Xie San walked in with a thermos mug and boxes of take-out food. He glanced at Xu Lan briefly before putting the food on the table.

“I saw Bai Wu at the emergency room earlier.”

‘Bam!’

‘Tap, tap, tap…’
