The two hearts, still lingering in fear, comforted each other through this embrace.
About an hour later, Gu Yan woke up, and seeing Nie Xiaoxing and Yuan Xihuo guarding his bedside on either side, a moment of confusion appeared on his face.
"Son, son..."
Yuan Xihuo, seeing Gu Yan's dazed expression, worriedly waved her hand in front of his eyes, anxiously asking.
Gu Yan slightly frowned, looked at Yuan Xihuo, "Empress Dowager, what are you doing? Your son is not blind."
Yuan Xihuo was stunned, then immediately threw herself at Gu Yan and burst into tears.
Gu Yan, "..."
Nie Xiaoxing's eyes were red, lips tightly pressed, staring at Gu Yan.
"You scared me to death, do you know that? Silly son, my silly son..."
Yuan Xihuo sobbed.
Gu Yan gently hugged Yuan Xihuo, his hand patting her back, his slightly bewildered eyes deepening as he turned to look at Nie Xiaoxing.
Nie Xiaoxing's face was unusually pale, her eyes filled with tears as she stared at him.
