The whole incident happened in just two or three seconds. When their overlapping bodies finally stopped rolling down the stairs at the landing, Xiao Zhan was dizzy from the vibration of the collisions, but there was no pain in his body. Wang Yibo, who had protected him, let out a depressed, pained groan.

Heart tense in his chest, Xiao Zhan sat up and immediately asked, "Wang Yibo, Wang Yibo, where does it hurt?"

He carefully supported the other's side, not daring to make any big movements. He quickly and carefully checked him over from head to toe. Fortunately, he had no injury on his head and there was no bleeding elsewhere.

Wang Yibo took a moment to clear his head after the dizziness and then managed to hold a smile, "It's okay......probably a sprained foot."

Xiao Zhan said in relief, "Don't move, I'll call someone to help."

Fortunately, the phone in his pocket hadn't broken. He called Liu Han and Luo YongHeng with an explanation. He waited for more than ten minutes with Wang Yibo. The two arrived quickly, Liu Han also bringing his own omega.

"Xiao Xiao, why are you here? Go home and rest," Xiao Zhan said.

Liu Han, in the middle of picking Wang Yibo up, interjected, "We were on a date, he heard the call and was worried about you, so he had to come along."

"I'm fine, this silly dog protected me."

Wang Yibo, who was lying on Liu Han's back, smiled. Xiao Zhan got angry when he saw his disregard for his own safety and punched him lightly.

"See if you smile again."

Wang Yibo struggled to raise his hand, then wiped the dust off Xiao Zhan 's face. Still smiling, he said, "You're out of danger now......"

Xiao Zhan froze for a moment, his brain stuttering to a stop, and his hand grasped Wang Yibo's hand as he tried to pull it away.

"......you also can't get hurt."

Wang Yibo was tall and built and Liu Han was having a hard time carrying him alone, so he could only let Luo YongHeng and Xiao Zhan help to reduce the burden from either side. The group hurried to the school infirmary. The journey took a while, so, in the end, Wang Yibo's left ankle was swollen like a steamed bun.

The school doctor was quite reliable. He massaged the injury a few times and the pain instantly faded a lot, but Wang Yibo had to rest for a while to fully recover.

Xiao Zhan helped Wang Yibo to lie down on the bed, saying to Liu Han and the others, "Head back first, I'll just stay here."

Out of the spirit of brotherhood, Luo YongHeng wanted to stay with the night, but just as he opened his mouth, he was dragged back by Liu Han, "Then we'll leave first."

Luo YongHeng: "?"

Stepping out of the infirmary door, Xiao Xiao couldn't hold back the urge to gossip, whispering to Liu Han, "Towards that alpha, Zhan seems to be a bit......?"

Liu Han sensed his implied meaning and raised an eyebrow, "So you can see it too."

Only Luo YongHeng couldn't figure it out, "See what?"

Liu Han gave him a blank look, "Just what you and the two fools inside don't see."

Luo YongHeng: "?????"

Only the two of them were left in the ward. After the chaos, the night was dark and the school doctor had headed out to sleep. Wang Yibo's leg was covered with medicine, so it was inconvenient for him to move, and he could only stare at Xiao Zhan .

"Xuezhang, go back to the dorm. I'm fine."

Xiao Zhan glanced at him, "Shut up and go to sleep." He covered him with the quilt gently.

Wang Yibo obediently lay on the bed, the quilt covering all the way to his neck so that only his fluffy head was exposed, making him look even more cute than usual.

"I'm so useless, Xuezhang." His eyes were filled with a bit of desolation. "Such a small thing managed to hurt me and now Xuezhang needs to take care of me. How can I become someone for you to rely on like this......"

"Did I say that I would rely on you?" Xiao Zhan asked.

Wang Yibo pursed his lips and squeezed his eyes shut. When he opened his eyes again, they were a bit red, contrasting against his brown-green irises like mud disturbing a clear lake, appearing both innocent and sad.

Xiao Zhan looked at him wearing this expression and suddenly lost his temper.

"I've never thought you were useless. Maybe a little scared. But in any case, you were pretty reliable, so thank you for protecting me." He rubbed Wang Yibo's head, then his expression and tone changed. With intentional ferocity, he added, "But you are not allowed to do this again. I don't need your protection. If you get brain damage or become disabled, it's not me who will take care of you for the rest of your life."

Wang Yibo smiled, scratching his nose. "Heehee......that also seems correct."

Xiao Zhan couldn't handle him anymore, "Okay, let's go to sleep. Even if you're not tired, I am."

Wang Yibo nodded, "Okay, good night, Xuezhang, head back to the dorm."

"I'm not going back, I'll sleep on the chair outside." Xiao Zhan turned to walk out, but his hand was caught.

Wang Yibo quickly said, "You won't sleep well like that, go back, don't worry about me."

Xiao Zhan 's hand was wrapped in each other's wide, warm palm. The temperature seemed to penetrate from his skin into his bloodstream, causing his body to start to warm involuntarily, just like when Wang Yibo had kissed his fingertips last time.

"Or should I sleep with you? Seems to me this bed is quite spacious."

He made the joke casually, but after he said it, his heartbeat gradually accelerated. For some reason, he ended up feeling a little nervous.

Wang Yibo blushed when he heard the words, then sealed his lips and said nothing, his hand still tugging at him without letting go.

Xiao Zhan noticed that he was so easily teased and his nervousness disappeared. Desire to tease rising, he deliberately leaned in and lowered his voice, "How about it? Make some room for me."

The green in the depths of Wang Yibo's eyes became gloomy and dim, seeming a bit different from the profound charm displayed everyday. Xiao Zhan was watched carefully by these eyes, and his heart rate, which had just stabilized, was suddenly thrown into disorder again.

"No......" Wang Yibo finally spoke, his voice very soft.

Xiao Zhan froze for a moment. He hadn't expected that he would refuse. "Why?"

Wang Yibo looked away, the tips of his ears glowing red, and he whispered, "I......I can't guarantee that I won't do anything......"

Xiao Zhan sneered dismissively, "You being like this, what could you do?

He patted Wang Yibo's head, straightening up, "Don't think about such nonsense, be good and lie down, I'll go out to sleep."

"Okay......" Wang Yibo saw that he would insist, so he could only let go.

"Do as you're told. Yell if you need me. I'm borrowing your jacket as a blanket." He casually grabbed Wang Yibo's jacket from the side and walked out of the ward.
