Chapter 10: welcome home

"OKAY, that's it. You're good to go," Doctor Han said after looking through Luo Yan's latest medical report. Then he turned to President Luo who was standing on the side. "President Luo, please make sure young master will drink his medicine on time. Also make sure he would follow the diet provided for him and not let him forget to regularly exercise in accordance to his physical therapy regiment. Lastly, don't let him do any extreme activities."

Luo Wei Tian nodded in acquiesce. He looked down at his second son. Xiao Yan's cheeks were no longer hollow and already had a little meat in them, making people want to pinch them. His skin was no longer deatly pale and now had a healthy glow in them. This made his beauty shine even more. Making people couldn't help but have the feeling of wanting to spoil him. It was especially true for Luo Wei Tian. Since Xiao Yan looked so much like his deceased wife.

"Xiao Yan, did you hear what the doctor said?"

"Yes. I will drink my medicine on time. Eat and exercise properly," Luo Yan said like an obedient child.

Luo Wei Tian gently patted Luo Yan's head. "Good."

"Congratulations, young master. Because of your hard work, you can now go home."

Luo Yan smiled brightly at Doctor Han. "Thank you, doctor."

That's right, Luo Yan could finally leave the hospital today. Three months had passed since he woke up from his coma. The season already changed, Spring was now Summer. He spent most of those three months in physical therapy. While doing therapy, he also had to be careful with his diet. And now, anyone could see the result of his hard work.

He no longer looked like a sickly kid that would croak any minute. His weight finally returned to normal. Well, at least normal for his 150 cm height. He still wanted to cry thinking of how short he was. But at least he didn't look like he would be easily blown away by a simple breeze. He just continued to comfort himself that he would soon have his growth spurt. Just looked at his younger brother, he's only 16 and he's already 180 cm. Luo Yan was optimistic that he too would reach that height. He just needed to continue drinking a ton of milk.

But the thing he was happiest about was that he could now walk. He no longer needed to sit on a wheelchair just so he could go from one area to another. But running was still a no go for him. If he ever tried, he would definitely, definitely stumble. He needed to continue exercising his legs for him to run normally. Which he didn't mind. The important thing right now was that he could walk.

"Are you ready, Xiao Yan?" his father asked.

"Yes, Dad," he answered and stood up.

Luo Yan curiously looked out of the car window. He'd never been to S City before. He grew up in a rural area and then moved to B City when he got accepted into T University. But looking outside, there wasn't much difference. The high rise buildings and skyscrapers, a lot of busy people walking on the streets, and of course, the never-ending traffic. No longer curious, he just leaned back on the seat of the car.

"Dad, are brother and Ah Jin in school?" he suddenly thought of asking.

Luo Yan knew his older brother was busy with his graduation. If he remembered it correctly, it would be held next week. Which he was really happy about since it meant that he could attend. Lou Jin on the other hand, already started his summer vacation. So he wondered why he didn't went with their father.

"They're waiting back at the house," his father answered simply. "Are you excited to go home?"

"Yes. I can't wait to see my room." He never really had his own room, so that's one thing he's excited about.

"We maintained your room as before. But if you ever want to change anything, you are free to do so."

"Okay," Luo Yan answered happily.

Soon, the car they were riding was out of the busy road. After that, their ride went smoothly. They entered a quite isolated piece of land. Something he wouldn't have thought possible in such a big city like this. They traveled on a road that led inside a quite dense forest. At the end of that road was a black gate.

The gate opened and the car entered. When it stopped, the driver went out first and opened the door of the backseat. Luo Wei Tian went out first. Then he lent his hand to Luo Yan and helped him get out of the car.

The moment Luo Yan saw the house in front of him, he almost caught his breath. It was a beautiful two-storey white mansion. There were vines and green plants on its walls. Around it was a beautiful rose garden with plump roses in different colors. It's like he was looking at a house straight out of a fairy tale book.

"Do you like it? Your mother was the one who designed it and landscaped the surroundings," Luo Wei Tian said when he saw the amazed expression on his son's face.

Luo Yan turned his head to his father, his pair of peach blossom eyes shining. "Yes. Mother was very talented."

And he meant the compliment. Just remembering the beautiful lady in the fragments of the original owner's memory always filled him with warmth and sometimes, sadness. Because she's no longer here with them.

Luo Wei Tian smiled. "Let's go inside."

When his father opened the door and Luo Yan entered, colorful confettis suddenly rained from above his head.

"Welcome home, Young Master!" loudly greeted by a group of servants lined up in front of him.

Then the servants parted and his two brothers walked in the middle. Luo Ren was holding a banner with a 'welcome home' written on it in a calligraphy type manner. And Luo Jin, well, Luo Jin was holding a big plush toy. A big brown bear the size of an adult man.

"Welcome home, Yan Yan," Luo Ren greeted with a gentle smile on his face.

"You should be thankful with my welcome home gift to you," Luo Jin said in his usual annoyed fashion.

Luo Yan looked at all of these, then he looked down to hide the different emotions that were brewing in his eyes. He never had a home. And he knew that this was not really for him but for 'Luo Yan'. He should be sad but he's not. Because, for better or worse, he was now that 'Luo Yan'.

When he found out that he woke up in a different body, he never really thought of giving anything back to the original owner. But now, he really wanted to treasure the people who gave him genuine warmth for the first time in his life. So now, at this moment, he would give the original owner a promise. This family that the original owner gave him, he would treasure with all his heart.

He walked towards his two brothers and hugged them. "I'm home."
