For the rest of the days that pass by after Snow has returned back to the Xia family, all he has been doing is managing the situation of Xia Yu and Han Hui in which eventually making Han Hui obtained his own residence that completely and absolutely belong to him.
Which would show his determination that his ties to the Han family along his mother family will never be able to mend, so whatever happened in the future while having the chance of rising in power and status, then those family aside from Xia can't get any single benefit from him.
it's like a fresh start, after all, despite being cut off from the Han family, Han Hui was still noble just without power, influence, and authority.
Something that he can just build up in the oncoming Imperial Examination next year or basically becoming a high-rank official disciple that can secure his future, Snow already have a chosen person in mind, it just going to be a bit while before it happened.
As for being penniless, this person is still shrewd and has his own personal saving which was quite a lot, besides, Han Hui still got friends that remain faithful and loyal so his connection can easily grow later on.
While the second person that Snow was managing was his mother matter about the new chance of getting into another relationship with Wen Shihong.
Which is proceeding faster after Snow has gotten back from the Palace, he has uses his weakened state as an excuse to reason his mother to become decisive about the feeling she felt toward the Great General of the Moon Empire.
Especially after speaking about the happiness of Xia Yu that would still receive the ridicule of others because of having no power on their father's side and getting engaged to a banished son of a famous aristocrat family while having a divorced mother.
Even if everything might appear to be a forceful approach but Snow has already seen that Xia Yue truly has felt something toward Wen Shihong.
Especially Xia Yue's feeling is growing into something more after witnessing the man determination, resolution, and downright thoughtfulness while showing love to her children even after finally knowing the real truth about their gender in which has cause Xia Yue to quickly soften up at the idea of marrying him.
And yes, Snow has revealed it to Wen Shihong about their situation, causing an expression full of sympathy to firstly appear on his face after the shock was over rather than loathsome negatives ones, although there were an awkwardness and complicated expression that also followed after because of a certain Emperor that was showing quite an interest toward Snow.
After all, every three days, Snow has a secret dinner with the Emperor in the form of curing or seeing his dark status, while the blooming lotus flowers, which for some reason haven't run out, was left on the special table that has changed into a beautiful and luxurious one, then the medicinal dishes was sent early in the morning and now also during night time, along with a few ambiguous letters.
It's basically the Emperor is trying to make Snow conscious of his existence.
Snow definitely can see the stickiness, clinginess, and shamefulness of the Emperor with those actions, which has finally let him know that the true nature of his lover is finally being revealed itself.
Of course, Snow also didn't forget to continue to deflect the dark aura curse status to the woman that stubbornly gives to his lover, while secretly checking up the group of men that have been charmed by the woman along with every movement she makes.
Also, the soul tainted entity that was inside the dark aura was finally taken out and now Snow was focusing more on completely getting rid of the dark status on his lover since the core of its power is now eliminated.
And in just a month, Snow was getting a new father, although it was fast, but everyone knew that the Great General Wen Shihong has a woman on his heart for all these years, so when the news that he will be marrying Xia Yue spread up has finally let everyone comprehend who the person was, of course, there are still people that still badly gossip about it while some were against it.
However, they are not the one who is getting married, so it doesn't matter what they thought, while the Wen Family only has Wen Shihong and his father in the main branch, in which Lord Wen father wasn't against the coming marriage of his son that remain single for many years.
Basically, he has warmly accepted Xia Yue as the future main wife, and the only wife of his son, especially when he is a great friend with Xia Yue's father, Xia Yin, it's like their wish in the past is finally fulfilled to this day.
Soon, the wedding day finally arrived, Xia Yue wearing a beautiful red wedding dress has once more gotten married, while Snow that was sitting in the celebratory hall has calmly smile as he watched the bowing motion of his mother and new father toward the happy and glowing faces of his two grandfathers sitting in the highest chair.
While the Emperor offering his blessing and sending off gifts to the joyous day of Wen Shihong and Xia Yue marriage has finally let the people all shut up since the Emperor has accepted it, what else can they do but speak only in secret when mentioning it.
Although Snow entertainment was to see the pale face of the invited Han family along with some of their members, after all, Chu family might be high in the noble rank but Wen Family is far higher and important while having the Emperor trust and favor, there is no comparing between them.
So now all of them are definitely dying in regret and remorse inside at the complete twist of the situation.
As for the original Su Yao father, there is no way that he has the face to come celebrate his ex-wife's new marriage right?
And when the celebratory continue on, Snow that was dress delicately left the side of Han Hui and his younger brother that has once again chance his surname to Wen, which Snow is also called Wen Yao now.
Soon, Snow was giving his farewell to Wen Shihong to let him know that he was tired and wanted to take a rest, perfectly showing the proper form of etiquette while letting everyone know that two of his new daughters have completely accepted him as their new father.
While the silent relatives of Wen Shihong, which is a cousin in another branch of Wen family have suddenly suggested his son and daughter of accompanying him back to his sleeping quarter, in which Snow has just smiled and nodded his head, accepting his kind offer while witnessing Wen Shihong eyes flash in hardness, definitely knowing well what this cousin is trying to do.
After all, that cousin's son was the most suitable person among the younger generation in the main branch to become chosen as the successor of the Wen Family seeing as Wen Shihong have never planned to marry in the past until Xia Yue matter happened.
And when halfway to their walk, the younger sister has suddenly gone away after suddenly being called out by a servant while speaking about an important matter that needed to be dealt with by her mother wasn't the least bit surprising to Snow.
Soon, Snow and the young man were left by themselves, in which they continue to walk in silence before the young man has suddenly stopped and opened his mouth to speak up.
"I apologize but I don't plan to follow my father's plan of marrying you in order to become the head of the Wen Family. I… have someone I love."
A straightforward person that has spoken the important matter between the two of them without wasting any time to complicate it all and Snow can see the reason why Wen Shihong and his new grandfather Wen Shi have chosen this person to be the supposed heir.
Snow has also stopped walking and turning around to just nodded his head in acceptance after seeing the solemn expression on the young man's handsome face causing a gentle smile to grace his lip.
"I understand."
Then without any warning, Snow abruptly felt his body being pulled by the young man before being quickly dragged in the secluded place something that Snow just let the man do and didn't resist one bit.
And Snow quickly felt his back hit in a tree thunk in a rough manner before his expression changed a bit when the young man's hands have directly shoot toward his chest causing him to shift his body a bit and letting the clothes on his shoulder to be ripped apart rather than his chest and completely exposing his shoulder.
And before the man can take an action again which seemed to focus on his chest once more, apparently acting as a person that was possessed and only focusing on a certain matter when Snow saw as the man roughly flew away from his body followed by the sound of broken bones.
Snow quickly caught a glimpse of silver color on his side, in which he has instantly grabbed the person long wide sleeves and stopping him from taking a step forward, especially when the sword in his hand was pulled and appearing ready to slice the down young man in the ground.
He recognized that his lover has just arrived a moment ago, detecting him in his sense, it just he didn't really plan for him to witness such a scene though, who knows that this person will suddenly try to undress him without speaking even a single word?
"Your majesty, please calm down."
"... you… felt sorry… and care… this person?"
Sighing inside, Snow who felt the darkening mood of his lover along with the swirling murderous intention brimming upon those freezingly cold eyes has gently tugged on the long wide sleeves one more time, while Zhuang has also taken out the other hidden people, which is probably to hide what is going on.
"Your Majesty… there was something wrong with him… he wasn't in his right mind…"
There is something that Snow needed to figure out with more evidence and a certain fact in which this person can be the key, it was one of the reasons why he didn't resist at the start, especially when this person is one of the charmed people that the woman has collected.
Snow basically can comprehend that the young man's entire actions were to figure out his gender, although it was done in a rough and violent matter but the person's mental status was a bit weird during the actions that rouse his suspicions.
And Snow absolutely sure that woman was the cause of it, which seemed to have become suspicious after the chaotic situation in the last month that something was going on and Xia Yue's marriage is probably the reason for what prompts that woman to react toward them.
Why him though? Su Yao's gender didn't get revealed in the would-be future only Su Yu, so she should have targeted his younger brother… however, Wen Yu has been taken care of and being guarded by a clingy Han Hui, so Snow has become an easy target then?
Or was that woman have a different approach to Wen Yu? Hm… Snow needed to think more about that later on, but for now, there is a mad wolf he needed to soothe.
Yes, Wolf, his lover beast form is a beautiful and lovely silver wolf, causing Snow to pulled the dark Emperor into some sort of embrace, although appearing weakened that he has fallen down in the ground along with the Emperor heavy body that has somehow easily followed along without any resistant.
And with an inward grin, Snow who is apparently trying to calm down the Emperor has raises his hand over to gently care the Emperor's hair while accidentally touching the twitching ears once in a while.
"... your majesty, are you alright now?"
A few minutes of peaceful silence, Snow has finally inquired about the status of his lover, although inwardly rolling his eyes at the Emperor's reply after hearing it since the entire time he was gazing at the appraisal information, so he knew what is going on.
"... still in pain…"
Yup... the shamelessness is back...
