Chapter 118: Shao Yan Doubt, Worries And Decision. Shao Cheng Showing A Rather Fierce Look.

Shao Cheng kneels down at the collapsed figure of his older brother and cousin while feeling slightly confused about the reason why the two of them have suddenly fainted over, after all, he didn't discern anything wrong to cause them to lost consciousness after making sure to check their health.

"You sure got a weird family Cheng."

Glancing up at Ren Yuan that has just finished speaking to Yu Qin the whole time that Shao Cheng has been checking upon Shao Yan and Xixi's health has only nodded his head in acceptance rather than denying that rude statement.

Although those words sound a bit insulting but there wasn't any maliciousness on Ren Yuan's voice.

Especially, when Shao Cheng truly doesn't have a normal family in this world because when he suddenly remembers the one in the Capital, he is unable to stop himself from feeling a slight trepidation at the thought of meeting them. 

Maybe… he should not go back home yet? From the memories of what he can remember from, they can be a bit overwhelming.

Particularly, when in the entire Shao Family, only his youngest brother Shao Cai that has survived to witness his death in the previous life is the only person that has left vivid memories to remain on his mind.

"Then, we should go now."

Shao Cheng felt his robe being gently pulled over which has instantly got his full attention. Turning around, he saw the wide grin of Ren Yuan along with those grey pupils that remain shining in joy for a while now.

"Whitey~ Let's go to a safer place now. At least, somewhere that we can take proper rest."

"Alright."

So, with one person grinning while the other remains calm and cold, everyone has finally left the place where the dreadful situation has happened in which all of them are being hunted down, although it might have ended, a hidden plotting will continue on in the shadow, but that certain matter is for Shao Cheng to deal later on.

As for what happened today, Shao Cheng is completely assured that appropriate people will do their job right and will execute that no important evidence will be used for his Shao Family to utilize as a certain proof of what has occurred for the past few days.

In fact, having some evidence in hand or not doesn't matter one bit, Shao Cheng has already predicted that nothing but trouble, problem, and difficulty will befall the Shao Family if they even tried to dig in so deeply to the design plots today.

Although their enemies cannot act in the open right now, especially after failing a big plan, nonetheless, they can always use small schemes once in a while in order to slowly decrease the Shao family influences, status, and power.

Particularly decreasing the common people respect into their family that has been keeping the Chang Empire safe at the present time.

The Royal family, the higher rank aristocrat family, the important and influential Royal Officials, even those who don't have much power but with great ambition will definitely try to target the Shao family, although they couldn't make a large movement so easily since a civil war or rebellion can happen if they pushed his family too hard.

Having military power in their hands sure is fortunate rather than unfortunate in this world, unlike what he once read about in novels from before.

Because despite the Shao family being extremely loyal, it doesn't mean that they are foolishly loyal that they will not bite back, they don't just have great ambition in power especially to the throne and would prefer to protect the Empire as a loyal guardian. 

Besides, the present Emperor is far smarter than the Chang Pei in the past, at least, he won't remove the people that protect him so easily just like that, although the Emperor is incompetent of making the Empire prosperous and strong while uncaring about the common people lives while leading the Empire to vulnerably and weakened state, yet that person miraculously still got some luck in him.

After all, having rather competent and smart wives that genuinely love him can be said the sole reason that has kept him alive while sitting in the throne despite being a failure of an Emperor.

It just too bad that the Emperor is a romantic scum bag that doesn't love anyone but still knows to show his respect and keep his wives at bay, a special talent that he sure has but only that though.

And the most important matter is the fact that those talented and skilled women, genuinely love the Emperor, really, Shao Cheng deemed those women to be the perfect definition of a person unable to control one heart and unable to choose a person you might fall in love with.

To fall for such a person… really, cause a person to deeply sigh.

Anyway, since the Shao Family couldn't get a proper justice about today incident then Shao Cheng will just have to deal with his own hands, which he rather preferred, after all, rather than getting unfair justice of their enemies punishment being inadequate, Shao Cheng would rather spill their blood and trampled them to nothingness.

The Enemies, malicious and hostile ones, especially the one that will give him danger Shao Cheng would never show any mercy and kindness to those kinds of people, all of them better be prepared for the consequences of their actions.

Soon, after traveling for a while, Shao Cheng and the rest of the people have finally arrived in a certain mountain which has a huge residence that is hidden and hard to locate from, a perfect place to stay for a proper rest without any sudden trouble and danger abruptly appearing.

"What do you think? Nice place right?"

For a residence hidden deep and almost on top of the mountain, Shao Cheng stare around the place which is really a huge place especially seeing the large courtyard and even some pavilion in the distance that makes it appear gentle and a luxurious one.

"Yes, it looks good." A waste of money to build in a place like this though...

Seeing the rather proud and boastful smile in Ren Yuan's face, Shao Cheng couldn't help but inwardly raise his eyebrow while unable to figure out why Ren Yuan has suddenly felt happy about his reply. 

Really, a matter that Shao Cheng assumed isn't important enough to place his consideration with seemed entirely different from Ren Yuan that thinks that it is important enough.

"Ren! Whitey you are here too! You guys are finally here!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice has resounded out before a young man in a blue robe has swiftly appeared before everyone else.

And it was Tian Ying who has displayed extreme relief along with a wide smile while his eyes lighting up.

However, before Tian Ying can speak up once more, Shao Cheng suddenly found his hand being pulled by Ren Yuan warm one who has begun walking toward a certain direction while issuing an order without a glance to his friend.

"Tian Ying handle the rest here."

Feeling quite curious inside Shao Cheng just let himself be dragged by Ren Yuan without any hint of resistance, however, before they can walk farther, a figure has suddenly blocked their way.

It was an extremely flustered and panic, Shao Yan, that shoot them a wide eye look which has soon quickly followed by a frustrated Xixi on his side that has tried to pull the man away from their path.

However, it seemed that his older brother appeared to have learned his lesson and knew how to protect himself from being taken away by their insane cousin that always has those certain weird glint in her eyes as she looks at the two of them

"Yan! Leave them alone!"

"Sister Xixi stop it! How could I let my adorable brother be taken away in an unknown place? What happened if he suddenly got taken advantage of by this person?"

"Then let him get taken advantage of! What is wrong with my tempting younger brother touching his young lover here and there huh? Just because you are single, it doesn't mean that you can get in the way in their relationship alright?"

Shao Yan couldn't believe the nonsense words that his cousin is spouting off, besides, even if his younger brother is in a relationship with this man, there is no way that Shao Yan will easily allow something to happen between them.

After all, Shao Cheng isn't an adult yet!

Especially, when Shao Yan isn't completely sure about which is true and which is false about the reputations that he has heard about this person in the Capital, after all, it is a well-known fact that Ren Yuan goes to the red light district all the time!

How can he let his younger brother feeling to be played with? Unless they got married, Shao Yan will not allow them to cross the line until there is no longer any doubt that Ren Yuan truly loves his younger brother!

While Yu Qin that has heard those words coming out from Shao Yan's mouth couldn't stop rolling his eyes.

What's being taken advantage of? You mean your younger brother taking advantage of Ren Yuan right? Did you really forget about that rather hot and intimate scene that your younger brother did to the person you are doubting?

And as Shao Yan and Xixi pulled back and forth while fighting each other, Shao Cheng can only sigh before turning his attention to Ren Yuan that has gently scratch his cheek while glancing away that he finds the man reaction a bit weird although he has easily ignored it since dealing with Shao Yan is his main focus at the moment.

"Where are you taking me?"

Better let Ren Yuan speak about it in order to comfort his older brother nonsense words because Ren Yuan and him being a lover? Please, is there something wrong with Shao Yan's eyes to even think about that certain improper word?

While Tian Ying who heard the words of Xixi couldn't help but give a secret glance to his friend which has abruptly cause his eyes to widen up while his lip has slightly opened up by seeing the pink color that appeared on Ren Yuan cheeks.

What the hell is he seeing right now? Is Ren Yuan being shy? That thick, shameless and brazen friend of his? What happened while they are away? It has only been a few days the last time he saw these two guys!

"Well, I'm taking us to take a comfortable bath. We really need to clean up and change into new clothes, especially when Little Cheng is bothered with the blood on you the whole time right?"

Shao Cheng couldn't help but gaze deeply at Ren Yuan that showed his care so openly just like that causing a small smile to spread on his lip which has spread wider when he felt the warm hand gripping him has suddenly tightened up.

"I see… Let's go then."

However, Shao Yan and surprisingly even Xixi has suddenly quickly spoken about taking bath together, quickly figuring out that there is definitely a large bathing place around which has cause Ren Yuan's face to finally showed an irritated look and wanting for them to just leave them all alone.

"No."

Instantly the entire place becomes silent after that single word is spoken out, and what makes it surprising is the fact that it was the young man that has refused it in a rather chilling voice rather than Ren Yuan that has wanted to take him away.

"Third Brother…?"

The young man's sapphire eyes have abruptly shown an unusual amount of fierceness upon it that has caused everyone who saw it to feel a shiver running down their spine.

"No one is allowed to see Yuan naked body."

What if you guys fall for him? I need to protect his chastity.
