Hearing Ye Wanwan's words, Shen Yi finally smiled, but as he smiled, he started coughing violently.
When Shen Yi coughed, he reflexively turned his head to the side, and his right hand, which was still hooked up to an IV drip, moved with it, tugging at the infusion tube.
"Be careful!" Ye Wanwan immediately exclaimed, already standing up and moving closer to Shen Yi, gently patting his back for him.
It took a while for Shen Yi to recover from his coughing fit, and then with difficulty, he propped himself up to sit, while Ye Wanwan fetched a cup of water from the bedside table.
After drinking the water, Shen Yi felt much better, and his gaze fell on Ye Wanwan again.
Feeling his stare, Ye Wanwan asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yi's Adam's apple bobbed, and eventually, he said softly, "I want to hug you."
