9 A Home Way from Home 4

You're awake!\"

Ji Shizhen was overcome with happiness when he saw that the man lying on the bed was in fact awake.

\"Where am I?!\"

The words that came out of the demon lord shattered the feeling of happiness that Ji Shizhen had, it was then he knew that something had gone wrong with the demon lord. Not wanting to jump to a hasty conclusion, he then ventured to probe further.

\"Can you tell me what today's date is? What is your name?\"

\"...\"

Silence met his inquiry; the demon lord had a look of confusion as he stared at the man that was by his bed.

His eye began wandering around taking in the strange unfamiliar place where he was, noticing what people wore. That was when he looked at himself. Gone were the robes that came with him, he now had on him a hospital gown of yellow, his long flowing hair hung loosely behind him.

\"Mom! Look, there is a man with long hair!\"

\"Hush! Be quiet!\"

Little by little he noticed how people were looking at him with eyes burning with curiosity and caution.

\"Excuse me, you haven't said a word. Can you hear me?\"

Ji Shizhen leaned close to observe the demon lord better, but what he didn't expect was for the other to angle his head at about the same time, hardly leaving any space between them.

\"Is it just me, or do those two looks like they are about to kiss?\"
