When Shao Cheng is prepared to meet an unexpected circumstance, a familiar voice that contains endless anxiousness and relief has quickly reached his ears.
And soon, stunned sapphire eyes saw a slender tall figure appearing in his vision.
Although the man crimson robe on his body hasn't been wash properly in the past few days, nonetheless, the person before Shao Cheng has become his center of attention of the entire world at this moment on.
With the snow-covered world around them becoming the slender man mere background which has intensifies the man impressive figures, so dazzling and bright that has almost made Shao Cheng want to close his eyes from it.
So beautiful, so majestic and noble with a certain charm that can make people greatly respect him to the bottom of their hearts.
And as Shao Cheng gazed at this man before him, although this is a young and inexperienced Ren Yuan, nonetheless, he was once again reminded to the fact that Ren Yuan has been a mighty, wise and enlighten Emperor in the previous life, a man worthy to follow and deserving of his respect.
Suddenly, Shao Cheng couldn't help but inwardly smile helplessly because the small tiny bit of anger that was still on his heart has suddenly extinguished by Ren Yuan appearance alone and as Shao Cheng stood there facing the man in the world of snow, the slight snowstorms that have been happening have finally stopped.
The light wind blow and the snow that has been falling nonstop from the past few days have finally ended, which the two men facing each other have completely disregarded because, at this moment, Shao Cheng and Ren Yuan only has each other attention.
Ren Yuan that has flushed face from the coldness, has practically lit up when he finally found the person that he has been worriedly looking for the entire time, feeling the concerned and trouble feeling he felt when it has finally dawned on him that Whitey has gone out to slowly disappeared as his eyes stare at the young man in white robe standing before him.
"Whitey, here you are! I know you're angry right now but don't stay outside alright? It's really quite dangerous since it isn't safe to be out! Punch me and slap me all you want, as long as it makes you feel better but come back with me now ok?"
The moment his cherry red lip open, Ren Yuan has spoken pacifying words at the silent Whitey standing silently which Ren Yuan couldn't help but gently coax the young man that is definitely still angry toward him.
And as he saw those rather long eyelashes seemed to tremble a bit after speaking those words has cause Ren Yuan to feel a bit relief since at least Whitey is responding before feeling a bit perplexed about why he was treating especially careful to this young man.
Especially when Ren Yuan has never really done and reacted this way to other people, remaining aloof and distant with a perception of what he can do and cannot do to the people around him.
However, Ren Yuan is unable to remain indifferent no matter what when it comes to this young man, especially when after learning how much this person has suffered and has worked hard in order to take care of him during the moment of his weakness.
And if this happens to other people treating him the same way as Whitey does, Ren Yuan gets the feeling that he will not turn soft with a gentle approach if it was another person that has done this to him today or even someone later in the future.
Ren Yuan isn't a kind person, much less a good one, he completely knew how hard the wall in his heart was toward other people, especially when after learning a serious secret when he was still young causing him to be on guard and unable to truly open his heart to other people so easily.
Everything that is happening right now, the way he reacts and the actions he takes are all weird, unusual and strange, but despite it all, there is this feeling that makes him want to treat this young man differently, so this time, Ren Yuan will allow himself to make an unusual gamble.
In the future, whatever will happen between the two of them from this moment on, maybe in the future the two of them might become an enemy against each other, even becoming a close friend or being betrayed once more by the young man, but Ren Yuan has decided that no matter how their relationship will turn out, in the end, he will allow himself to be entirely different from this young man.
So, Whitey, please don't betray me alright?
Thus, the gamble Ren Yuan makes today will make him feel extremely fortunate to has done so, after all, as he stares with tender and soft peach blossom grey eyes toward the man leaning on his shoulder while he slept.
Ren Yuan felt extremely blessed to have a person like Shao Cheng appear in his life.
But for now, there is an angry young man that he needed to gently coax.
As Shao Cheng indifferently stares at the worried Ren Yuan while his eyes couldn't help but recognize those exquisite face flushing pink from coldness is the fact that the young man has been looking around for him in a long time, has caused Shao Cheng heart to tremble a bit while some unknown emotion emerge within him, making him feel a bit confused.
For the first time ever, a ripple has appeared in Shao Cheng sapphire eyes as he stares at the man that has gone out in the snowstorms just to find him and probably haven't taken a proper rest yet has caused Shao Cheng to soften up while feeling distressed when he remembers that Ren Yuan has just gotten well from his cold.
"Um, let's go back."
When he has spoken those words, Shao Cheng watch the way the olden man become stunned, then a slight relief appearing on his face before that cherry red lip showed a splendid smile while his peach blossom grey eyes curve up in a lovely crescent moon shape which is filled with joy has cause Shao Cheng to stare a bit longer in an amazed manner.
Really… such a bewitching man...that even Shao Cheng who is straight man couldn't help but become affected by it.
"Whitey, what's wrong?"
Shao Cheng that heard the confuse and clueless Ren Yuan couldn't help but smile wryly while the sudden idea of hiding and locking this man away from everyone sight flash on his mind when he can perceive the way the older man seemed to be a bit unguarded about how charming he appears at the moment.
This is troublesome, Shao Cheng will probably watch out over the bees and flies that will try to get close with bad intentions and ulterior motives toward his future Emperor later on which is a bit of a headache.
"Nothing. Big Brother Yu Yu lets go?"
Hiding those dark thoughts, Shao Cheng has just calmly answered back before flashing over to Ren Yuan that was eager to go back, causing the older man to become confused, while Shao Cheng lip raise up a bit, while sapphire eyes flash a playful manner which has quickly turned to normal cold looking one before bending over and taking over the older man on his arms, which is a bit weird base from their size and shape, something that Shao Cheng doesn't care at all.
"Come, you have just gotten well from the cold, I'll carry you back. Besides, it will be easier and faster this way."
"Eh? W-wait Whitey!"
However, Shao Cheng turned deaf to the protest of the person on his arms before dashing ahead which a frown soon appeared on his face, while glancing down coldly at Ren Yuan that was struggling to get down on his arms, which he couldn't help but secretly complain about how well behaved the little Ren from before then the bigger Ren before him.
"Be good or I'll get angry again."
Hearing the angry words coming out from the young man's mouth, Ren Yuan couldn't help but become stilled since he feared that the young man will probably drop him and go away once again, especially when Whitey is probably still angry from the bad joke he has just done after waking up.
So Ren Yuan can only remain obedient in the arms of Whitey, allowing himself to be carried which was really unusual that he was unable to comprehend one bit about why he was like this toward the young man.
Shao Cheng feeling the way that Ren Yuan has become well behaved, he suddenly felt that the man can be adorable too, which has caused his lip to spread wide while his sapphire eyes become soft.
"Good boy."
Shao Cheng couldn't help but praise the person on his arms which contains a bit of pet that the two of them have neglected to notice.
"... I am older than you Whitey…"
"Um? Ok, Big Brother Yu Yu is a big good boy?"
"..."
"..."
And as the two figures finally disappeared and while their voice slowly faded in the distance, a tall figure wearing a black robe has finally seemed to have woken up while showing a speechless expression on his handsome face and with a hollowed gaze toward where the two-person has disappeared.
His mouth opening and closing seemingly unable to form any words, before covering his face as a deep sigh was released from his mouth soon after since from start to finish, Xing Ning was neglected by Ren Yuan and Whitey.
"... Damn… I won't bother next time…"
