During the days when Xue Yuanshan went out of town for a meeting, Liam Tang was responsible for all the ward rounds in Ethan Yang's ward. After getting over the initial hurdle, the remaining days were not as difficult as expected.
There was only one exception, which was the second day after Ethan Yang was transferred to the special needs ward. During the morning rounds, Liam Tang leaned over to check the condition of the drainage fluid. When he was about to hold the drainage tube, Ethan Yang also happened to raise his hand to take the glass of water handed by You Xin. For a moment, the two hands touched each other in mid-air, and Liam Tang retracted his hand as if conditioned. Ethan Yang's hand also paused, and the fingers that were originally stretched out were slightly clenched, and then dropped to the side of his body. He turned his head and looked at You Xin: "Put it on the table first."
After realizing that he had overreacted, Liam Tang calmed himself down and continued with his action of checking the drainage tube.
After leaving the ward, he unconsciously rubbed the place where his fingertips had just touched with his thumb. It felt hot there as if it was burned, and all five fingers and the entire palm began to feel hot.
We had done the most intimate things ten years ago, but now when our fingers just touched, I felt a little scared - or maybe it was more than just fear, otherwise my heart wouldn't be beating so fast.
