The entire dream was fragmentary. He wasn’t sure if it was influenced by his visit to the university today, but every scene in his dream was related to the school, and He Yufeng appeared in many of them. Xia Wennan dreamt of studying with He Yufeng in the library, He Yufeng helping him jot down experiment results in the lab, and the two of them playing basketball on the court. Xia Wennan dreamt of other things aside from this, all of which he could describe as picturesque. As a result, when Xia Wennan later awoke, he was dazed all over. It wasn’t until he opened his eyes did he realise that his headache had gone away and that Ming Luchuan was still sleeping beside him with an arm snugly wrapped around him. When Xia Wennan stirred, Ming Luchuan tightened his embrace. He raised his head and gazed at Xia Wennan, eyes hazy with sleep. “Still hurting? Would you like to go to the hospital?” “It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Xia Wennan rolled over and sat up, lifting a hand to pat his own head. Ming Luchuan sat up with him, his gaze never leaving Xia Wennan. The only thing going through Xia Wennan’s mind was how strange his dream had been. Why would he dream of He Yufeng? Was it because they had happened to visit their university together? So, did that mean that those dreams were merely dreams? Or were they fragments of the memories he’d lost?
Xia Wennan clutched at his hair. “We should go to the hospital,” said Ming Luchuan.
Xia Wennan turned to take a long look at him before reaching out and hugging him. “It’s okay, it doesn’t hurt anymore. Let’s just go in two days, for my routine check-up.” Ming Luchuan stroked Xia Wennan’s hair. “You’re really all right?” “Mm.” That morning, Xia Wennan went to the hospital on his own, behind Ming Luchuan’s back. Lin Shuqiu was the one in charge of Xia Wennan’s routine checkups. When he learnt that Xia Wennan had hit his head against a tree and had been dizzy for the entire night, he told him that he could consider performing an MRI if he wanted a more thorough examination. If the headache was only short-term, however, Lin Shuqiu suspected that Xia Wennan was suffering from a mild concussion.
