Chapter 255 – 255 – Messy Stitches
Fan Xui rushed back to their neighborhood. Right at Yue's door, he paused a bit. Yue's family home was very small and had only two bedrooms. If the two wounded girls were resting in each room, Yue would not have space.
"I'll take him to my place," he informed the soldiers who were standing guard out the door.
One of them stood in his way. "Why? His home is here. He can rest here."
"Move, just inform Yue's dad he will understand," Fan Xui walked away to his house. his place did not have many amenities but had a lot of space.
His house was built to accommodate at least five people. There were two bedrooms on the ground floor and there was also one bedroom and storage room in the basement.
The basic amenities like water taps and plumbing was already finished but the furniture and other electrical appliances were yet to be fixed.
Before that, he went into a coma.
"at least I have a mattress," he placed Yue gently on it and covered him up with a thick sheet. The temperature was low in the evening and at night it can get freezing.
He did not have a heater in his house. since his body was very strong, he did not deal with any issues with it.
But now Yue was here, he felt the urgent need to fix his house up.
He walked over to the door he rarely used. It was the door to his basement. Inside, he had a few things he had imported from afar to set up in his house. They were still in their boxes.
Fan Xui blindly searched for the light switch and switched it on. A small light lit up the dusty basement. It was a huge space with a washing machine and drier set up in a corner. He walked in. Huge boxes were stacked up in one corner.
He checked each one of them. Some of the boxes were appliances like ac, dishwasher, lights and other decorative things.
These were useless to him. The ac did not have a heater function. He searched through all the boxes, but he could not find a heater. He did find a small coal brazier.

Back then, when they were constructing this place, he took a careful look at Yue's house. He saw the solar sheets set up there and wanted to set up some in his own house as well.
It was supposed to be a conversation starter with Yue's dad. He could have visited them and casually mentioned that he liked solar power too. Maybe that must have improved his impression of him.
Fan Xui nodded to himself. 'This strategy could have worked perfectly…'
These were all stocked up in here collecting dust.
He read the solar sheets manual carefully.
A small knock on the door startled him.
Silently he walked up and went to the door.
"Open up, Fan, it's me," Hary's voice came from outside.
He opened the door. He was standing out there with a huge box in hand. "Yue's okay?'
"hmm he's tired and sleeping," he led him inside and took the heavy box from him. Inside there were four tiers of side dishes and a huge flask full of hot soup. "Looks tasty."
Hary had already walked into the bedroom and sat on the ground. "It's cold here. You don't have a heating system?"
"Yet to install one. I'm thinking of taking a look at the market. Maybe I can find a good one."
Hary reached out to touch Yue's hand.
He immediately grabbed him.
Hary glanced at him with a brow raised. "jeez I'm not doing anything to him,"
"No it's just…." Fan Xui hurriedly moved the bed sheet that had fallen to Yue wait up till his chin hiding his hands inside. Yue had told him that his powers work with touch. if he touched Hary now, then the space ability will be nullified.
"What happened to him?"
"He's just exhausted." Fan Xui whispered.
"Who were the kidnappers? Did you get them?"
"Yes, Yue killed a few and Tian killed a whole lot. God, she was quite scary actually,"
"Yeah, she can easily kill a man in seconds. That's what we were trained for," Hary's gaze was always fixed on Yue.
Fan Xui felt a weird feeling in his heart. He could not figure out what this feeling was. "How's Juda and Lui?"
"Both are good. Trexa healed them both and slept off. I guess she was also exhausted using her powers too much," Hary mumbled, gently touching Yue's messy hair.
"Why don't we go have a drink," Fan Xui urged him.
Hary nodded. "You have beer?"
"No I…I have soup."
"Jesus. That's not a drink, it's food,"
"It's liquid so it's a drink to me," Fan Xui silently ushered him out of the room and carefully closed the door.
Hary stood out there with a weird smirk on his face. "Hmm, you are trying to chase me out. I'll not overstay my welcome." He walked out of the door.

"I know, you three have a secret. I will wait for Yue to share it with me, eat well, and keep him warm. Should I bring a brazier?"
"No, I have one, thanks,"
Fan Xui closed the main door with a small sigh. 'Why do I feel a sense of relief sending him off? I'm getting weird day by day,' he patted his chest and walked over to his bedroom.
Yue groaned and wiggled around until his torso was out of the sheets again. With a small smile on his face, he nuzzled into his pillow.
"Why is he so cute.. gosh…." he gently kissed his cheek and hid his lover's hands inside the sheets again. "Gloves… should I make some for him.."
For now, he only had oven mittens. He gently lifted Yue's wrist and inserted his hand inside.
He tore apart an old black bed sheet and traced Yue's hand shape as approximately as he can and started to stick it up.
Well..after just two stitches… he came across a problem. The string got tangled up and knotted…
"Fuck it's hard…"
Startled, he glanced around. The voice sounded very similar to his own. "who?"
"With what?"
Fan Xui thought about it for a second. "You must be the second personality everyone is talking about,"
"Just tell me what to do. I'll follow your instructions."
And just like that, his second personality started instructing him what to do.
Even so, the stitches ended up messy and tangled.. the glove was useless.
Fan Xui suddenly felt his eyes drooping out of control. "Wait I didn't…"
The next second his eyes opened, the pupils had turned a strange shade of blue with slight sparkles of electricity flowing out of it. He glanced at the messy stitches and sighed. "idiot, this loop was not supposed to go here…." he undid them all and started to sew the glove cleanly.
