Chapter 59: Tian Ying Eyes Widen In Shock And Surprise. "Xing Ning, Are You For Real?"
After finally putting the outer crimson robe of Ren Yuan from his body, Shao Cheng turned his attention at the still flustered older man that seemed to be unable to form any kind of words, any explanation and reason about his rather famous bad reputation.
"Stop, I understand, you are a man after all. Big Brother Yu Yu, really, no need to worry about it. Just... in the future, please don't touch me for a few days after embracing another person alright? I will feel uncomfortable so…"
With a frustrated sound, Ren Yuan has close his mouth tightly while scratching his satin-like hair that has long been dry up since he was unable to explain about the real situation of having a well known bad reputation in the Chang Capital.
Ren Yuan has never cared about how the people how they see him, but right now, hearing the young man words, seeing that complicated expression on Whitey face made him want to explain it all about really badly.
Yes, it was all fake, completely totally fake and lies in order to deceive those people that will definitely target the Ren Family more openly if they find out that the son of the Prime Minister is extremely gifted, skilled and talented, along with the certain secret that his parent has told him early on in his life.
Especially when Ren Yuan has learned early on that they have a rather dubious Royal Family that they are assisting with, particularly when there is one of the aristocrat family that has been growing ambitious and power-hungry that anyone that has a certain power that threatens their desire of ruling has face an extremely bad ending.
Ren Yuan was rather content from being ignored and overlooked, giving less trouble and burden to his parent that has already done enough for him but as he gazes deeply at the person before him, it just didn't sit well inside him to know that Whitey rather have bad impression about himself.
After all, his certain reputation and exploit in Chang Capital is rather a serious one, which is really bad, where most of the gifted and righteous people rather not get acquaintance with, and from the appearance and manner of Whitey, he can recognize that the young man is one of those people.
However, Ren Yuan is unable to speak about it to the young man, much less reveal about what he has been doing for a long time now, after all, he has started all of it on early age, it troubles him to admit it but Ren Yuan couldn't speak about his more deepest secret to the young man because his trust toward him isn't strong enough.
So he can only close his mouth, peach blossom grey eyes turning chaotic, feeling so uncomfortable about not being to tell of what is really going on.
"Oh… so you survive."
"Eh… Um…Yeah..."
Suddenly, the bland voice of Whitey along with the awkward voice of Tian Ying has quickly awakened Ren Yuan from his deep thought while finally noticing that the young man has finally regarded the new presence around them, albeit after quickly making sure that Whitey was wearing his clothes on which has caused him to sigh inwardly.
Although, he couldn't help but eye the way those crimson robe of his sure looks strangely good to the young man body, especially when the crimson color emphasizes that white skin of his.
"Hey Big Brother Yu Yu, I'll go take a rest there while you deal with everything."
Although Shao Cheng was completely healed after experiencing the unimaginable torturous pain of pushing the limit of using the purple energy and at the same time the unexpected start of his body changing to something unnatural but the mental fatigues remain.
The only reason why he has taken a supposed quick bath was to remove the evidence of what has happened while planning to go after the older man, which was something that he didn't need to do anymore since Ren Yuan has now come back.
With that, Shao Cheng has nod his head to the other people before turning around and leaning over a rocked wall, his long eyelashes fluttering while tiredness flashing on his pupil, no one can truly understand about how much misery he has suffered, as he was unable to lose his consciouness for fear of being unable to do anything if something bad were to happens to Ren Yuan that has gone ahead to confront the danger alone.
Shao Cheng really wants to take proper rest and seeing that Ren Yuan is fine, along with his friends and the subordinates around, Shao Cheng can say that he was able to go into a deep sleep and this time knowing perfectly well that Ren Yuan wouldn't leave him alone.
If he did… well, let just say that Ren Yuan wouldn't like how he will retaliate for it and with those flash of dark thought on his mind, Shao Cheng has close his eyes once again.
"... alright…"
Murmuring those words, Ren Yuan gaze deeply at the currently sleeping Whitey for a bit longer before turning his attention back at the currently weird and strange expression of his two friends which he completely ignored as he began discussing about what their next actions will be.
Shao Cheng doesn't know how long he has been sleeping, but when he tiredly open his eyes again, it was to see the crimson color on his vision along with rustling sound of clothes and wind on his ears, usually, Shao Cheng was mostly alert after a split second of waking up from his consciousness but this time, he can only dazedly stare ahead feeling so comfortable from the familiar presence that he wanted to go back to sleep.
Which the soft murmur of a familiar soothing voice that has reached his ears has once more caused Shao Cheng to be lulled back to sleep once more, completely giving his trust to the person that doesn't fail to give him great relief and content.
The second time Shao Cheng find himself waking up again and this time he was slightly awake as he blinks his eyes while feeling the way his surroundings were moving a bit could tell that he was currently riding a carriage and lying down in an extremely soft fur which was a makeshift bed inside.
And then, Shao Cheng soon turns his attention at the currently sleeping man lying down by his side, before his gaze turns at the arm around his body and into his small hand grasping the man crimson robe with a bit a strange expression, which he soon accepted easily with a resigned look.
Shao Cheng is getting to use at this rather intimate actions, it is a bit scary but he wasn't able to stop anymore, the man has practically told him to just do what he has been doing the entire time.
With a sigh, Shao Cheng has tried to raise his body up but the arm on him has suddenly pulled him back before feeling a heavy weight upon on top of his head, which was Ren Yuan's face from what he can discern on it before a soft sleepy murmur reaches his ears.
"... sleep more…"
Narrowing his eyes, Shao Cheng glances at the close window and hearing the horse's footsteps that continue to run ahead has made him decided to be obedient this time and just take another rest, after all, he was still a bit sleepy, does, he once more close his eyes leaning more to the warmth body against his.
While Ren Yuan that has woken up, secretly open his eyes to peak at the young man that has obediently listen and went back to sleep once again, before letting out a small yawn before pulling the man closer as he once more has fallen asleep, as for his current actions, well, he has long started ignoring it, just knowing that he felt comfortable and content with the young man has put him in great ease.
And as the low key carriage travel on, two young men that were currently at the front and being the coachman the entire has manage to hear about what is currently happening inside the carriage with their sharp hearings.
Soon one of the man wearing a blue robe has turned to the person next to him while whispering complaints as the cold wind ruthlessly hit his face.
"Why… can that man allowed to stay inside and even…s-sleep with Ren Yuan… that is simply impossible, Ning! You know how our friend mostly dislikes people touching him!"
Xing Ning that has been staring ahead with a serious expression, has a glance at his friend with a sympathetic look as he explains why this is happening.
"...Ren Yuan is just taking responsibility for what he did to Whitey…"
"What!?"
Tian Ying that heard his friend's answer couldn't help but widen his eyes, along with an astonished and bizarre expression, his mouth opening up to speak words only to be unable to form even a proper one at just how shocking the information he just heard.
Responsibility…? Does that mean that his friend did that to Whitey??? Should he start calling Whitey… a sister in law??? Wait, it should be brother in law right???
Damn, Ren Yuan like men from the start?
