The wound on his chest had begun to scab, but any slight movement caused intense pain.
However, more than the pain, he was extremely thirsty.
His throat felt like it was about to catch fire, and his mouth was dry and sticky.
Enduring the severe pain, he got up and reached for the water jug on the table. The cold water inside had almost run out, and he couldn't remember how long it had been there.
Still, he drank it all in one gulp.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Drinking too fast made him cough uncontrollably. The force of the coughs caused the wound on his chest to reopen. Blood seeped from the wound, soaking a large patch of his black inner clothes.
"Hiss—!"
Shang Yanting gasped in pain, lying back on the bed.
