Shao Cheng who heard the screaming words of Xixi has woken up from his state of mind, his eyes slightly widening about what he has just done, which everyone has neglected to notice since everyone is in their own world right now while Ren Yuan that has been the closest person remains unresponsive.
Right then, he turned around normal and began eating the rest of his food, even though his older brother was out cold on the ground without being helped by the two people besides him, Shao Cheng doesn't have time to worry about anyone right now.
Especially when he feels genuinely disturbed about what he has just done so unconsciously, especially in that single moment when Shao Cheng deemed Ren Yuan so remarkably appealing and adorable that he just wants to keep teasing him more.
To make him continue showing another expression that he has never been able to witness even in the previous life, an expression that only he will be able to make the man show for him.
And right now, Shao Cheng couldn't help but feel sick about what might those thoughts meant because it felt like he is becoming distorted and dark when it comes to Ren Yuan and something more, which isn't a good thing.
"I�����m done eating. I'll go check some of the medicine that I'll be giving out later on."
And so, while Shao Cheng heart was beating fast, he calmly stood up and nodded his head to the people around him before walking toward the makeshift bed that he has slept before when fainting from the lethal poison and has become his resting spot the entire time.
As he fiddle with the medicines and herbs that he has gathered and created so far, Shao Cheng's mind remains turbulent and chaotic before the cause of all his awkwardness abruptly emerged on his mind without any warning.
Unbeknown to him though, Shao Cheng pale cheeks have a hint of pink as the expression of Ren Yuan eyes widening in flustered manner cheeks flushing so red that he almost made him want to take a bite of it before his entire exquisite features displaying a charming and attractive appearance than usual keep flashing on his mind no matter how much he wanted to forget it.
"Fuck."
This is not good…maybe he should take a break from him, and keep a distance for now, only slightly though since even Shao Cheng knew that he can no longer let go of the great comfort and relief that the man has been giving him just by staying by his side, especially when they become intimate a bit more that all he ever wanted was to continue that way.
"Urgh…"
Ignoring how unusual his actions might seem, Shao Cheng cover his face with his hand before rubbing it in frustration as everything becomes complicated.
Yeah, he should stay away for now after what just happened.
While Shao Cheng decides that he need a break from the man for a bit, in the distance, Ren Yuan that has finally managed to awaken from his unresponsiveness has quickly glanced over to his side, in which he saw that the young man isn't sitting next to him anymore.
Somehow, he felt both disappointed and relieved at the same time when he found him gone.
"Oh~ How was it? Not only is my cousin can be adorable, but he can also become such a sexy daring man. Isn't my cold Little Ancestor so hot and sexy a moment ago? Did your heart skip a beat? Fascinating young man! Did you finally fallen more to my Beautiful Cousin?"
Xixi has finally able to return back from her la la land, as such has suddenly asked with a wicked smile and suggestive tone to the awaken Ren Yuan causing him to instantly blush furiously before running away from her.
Ah… he was hit hard huh… so exciting! This wasn't in her calculation at all, and here Xixi assumed that it was going to be the other man that will make the move, but she was wrong all along! It will definitely be her cousin that will do the actions between the two of them.
Right now, Xixi decided to keep watching as her cousin continues to charm the other man, unconscious or not doesn't matter as long as Cheng does it.
After all, bringing such an attractive tempting beauty to their family is also a good choice since, with this, Xixi cousin wouldn't need to be married to another family right?
"Well… I think I should continue practicing the painting skill that my mother has been wanting me to continue before."
Nodding her head at that decision, Xixi has walked over to her cousin that has once more fainted which she has carried him over with the way one usually treats a lady should be before skipping elsewhere in excitement.
"I'll definitely paint and record the scene that I will be witnessing from now on! I will surely need to paint what happened today too and give a title of it as 'The moment when the young man heart was taken away' Kyaa~ I need to share those magnificent paintings to my close friends later on. Maybe asking them to write it in a book too? Yup! Another great idea!"
Yu Qin that has followed over to save his childhood friend remaining manly pride has almost stumble over after hearing the woman insane words while inwardly feeling elated that Ren Yuan is going to be dealing with such troublesome woman, later on, even he felt annoyed by his friend actions so.
"Damn… that's… didn't just happen…"
Ren Yuan that has been standing from afar and has disappeared somewhere to be left alone, let out a loud sigh before covering half of his face while a flush still remains even though he tried hard to keep his awkward response at bay.
But when those deep burning sapphire eyes flash on his mind along with pink tongue gently licking that slender beautiful finger, cause a groan of embarrassment to escape his lip while he felt his face heat up once more.
Ren Yuan couldn't help but disappear from everyone right now, and mostly from the person that has caused him to even respond this way.
This is not good… maybe he needs to have a break from him, he has been feeling weird and reacting abnormally the entire time that he has been with the young man.
"Yeah… a break… that's is a great idea…"
He is not running away… it just going to be awkward interacting with Whitey so. And it's not like he was going to stop being friends with the young man, even he can't give up the warmth and comfort he felt whenever he has been with Whitey.
Ren Yuan refuses to let go and wanting to keep the young man to keep staying by his side, and a moment of feeling uncomfortable wouldn't cause him to just give up.
Soon, after a few minutes, everything went back to normal, as normal once can be while showing obliviousness at the strange stare that he keeps receiving from his older brother.
While Shao Cheng has been standing and listening as Yu Qin speak about an important matter that he needed to hear, before turning around the moment that Ren Yuan has arrived from where he has been hiding the entire time.
And when Shao Cheng decided to return his attention to Yu Qin so that he can ignore the person for his much-needed break while preparing himself from the usual actions of Ren Yuan, has suddenly become completely stunned when the man usual actions of annoying him most of the time have suddenly turned away and walking in another direction without any single word spoken.
"..."
Somehow, Shao Cheng felt uncomfortable from what happened just now, before inwardly shaking it out because wouldn't this make it far easier for his plan? At least, he doesn't need to think of a reason or explaining what he was doing if Ren Yuan suddenly acted in a childish manner asking the reason for it.
Then, as everyone discuss the next actions that they will be performing with the enemies that will soon find out where they are hiding the whole time, Shao Cheng couldn't help but turn his attention on Ren Yuan that refuses to even glance his way even after he finishes speaking and was just listening as the other people speaks their own opinion.
"..."
Unbeknown to him, everyone around them has felt the strange atmosphere between the two men, only refusing to show it on the surface even Shao Yan who felt conflicted the entire time has decided to not mix with the situation.
After all, even if he dislikes the mere thought of these two people becoming together, Shao Yan is afraid that their friendship will suddenly break apart and end right here if he tried to fix the problem, which Shao Yan still refused to believe that their friendship is a simple one.
Nope not at all, with the way the two react with each other, especially of what he has just seen from what his younger brother did before, Shao Yan knows in his guts that something more will come out at these two young men associations.
Shao Yan doesn't want his brother going back to the way he is, even if he hates to admit the fact that this man is the reason why Shao Cheng has opened up once more.
Well, it is a great relief though that if in the end, his conjecture turns out to be true, it seemed that it will not be his brother that will be the vulnerable one between their relationships.
While Xixi in the corner has been anticipating what will happen next because what is good in a relationship without a circumstance to spice it up right? Although, she will make sure that nothing bad will come out of it.
After everything was finished, Shao Cheng who tried to figure out what is truly happening walked over toward the other man, only to see Ren Yuan suddenly leap out and disappearing in everyone's vision with such great speed.
"..." so Ren Yuan is trying to stay away from him too? However, isn't the older man the shameless one with a thick face? So why does it feel like Ren Yuan is embarrassed by what happened before that he was running away from him?
Stay away from him…? And even ignoring him…?
Suddenly, Shao Cheng that remained rooted in the spot has let out another smile which was a bit twisted as his sapphire's eyes darkened before instantly leaping up and going after the utterly bad man.
And the decision to keep his distance from Ren Yuan has completely tossed away without any single hesitation.
Soon, Shao Cheng has easily grasped the person from behind which seemed to have been thinking something serious the entire time that has made it easy to surprise and capture him.
"W-Whitey?"
Pulling Ren Yuan down with a bit force that the back of his head has hit Shao Cheng chest, who in turn has knelt down in the ground has bend down slightly to softly whisper on Ren Yuan ears.
The entire time feeling extremely uncomfortable while turbulent emotion swirl within his eyes.
"... You're really bad Big Brother Yu Yu… you can't just ignore me alright?"
