Shao Cheng Continue Brainwashing Regarding Ren Yuan, "Wait, Why Do I Feel An Ominous Emotion?"
Shao Cheng Continue Brainwashing Regarding Ren Yuan, "Wait, Why Do I Feel An Ominous Emotion?"
"..."
Shao Cheng wanted to pinch his nose in frustration after Xixi has finally managed to calm down from her crazy frenzy before his eyelid twitches after hearing the distorted giggle coming out from her mouth after Ren Yuan was mentioned.
Maybe he should have considered in running away from Xixi when he went back to wondering outside later on? From the look of it, Shao Cheng keeping Xixi by his side will produce a bunch of troubles…
After those thoughts flash in Shao Cheng's mind, he couldn't help but quickly glance toward his Uncle only for his lip to twitch again when he found the older man has quickly look away before letting out a boisterous laugh while turning his head toward his daughter with a serious expression on his face.
"Then it's official! My nephew Cheng, I'll let your Aunt Huimei know about Xixi becoming your official personal guard. And I'm sure that you are busy so I wouldn't keep you for too long. My daughter, go ahead and change into suitable clothes before going out. Don't create trouble on your cousin now alright?"
"..."
She is already great trouble even before becoming my personal guard… besides that, please look directly at my eyes!
"Oh! I know that I can count on you Father! I can finally escape my Mother obstinate ideas of making me turn more feminine! Bah! What's wrong if I don't get married in this life? It's not like I'll die without a man! All I need is to observe a bunch of beautiful men, rather, it's better if they do this and that right in front of my eyes… heheh…damn, its winter but I feel so hot right now..."
"Control yourself! Don't harm your cousin because of your certain obsession! At least, do it when Cheng is out of your sight!"
"Hahaha, Father Its Too LATE FOR THAT! I'm sure you already heard about it too! After all, its already spread in the entire Capital! My Beautiful Cousin Is In An AMBIGUOUS RELATIONSHIP with the Stunningly Attractive Son of the Prime Minister! Just wait, Cheng will soon be able to openly embrace the Beauty in his arms!"
"..."
Shao Cheng's gentle smile has completely disappeared from his face, switching to the familiar indifferent and cold look, although it was far colder and chilling than usual, however, for whatever reason, Su Enlai proceeds to severely stare in his direction while Xixi was proudly showing a gratified expression on her face.
What the hell… Xixi, what are you so proud of?
And Uncle Enlai… what is that complicated look in your eyes? Please stop whatever weird thoughts are running in your mind right now! It's definitely not a good thing!
Damn, there is clearly a reason why Xixi becomes like that! It's your fault right???
Somehow, Shao Cheng rarely regrets his decision and desperately wanted to change his mind.
Is it too late to choose another family member to ally with? At least, there are also some decent people from the non-branch Shao Family, for example, his Father Yin younger brother… that certain Uncle of his can be trusted too.
"My beautiful Cousin~ Wait for a bit and I'll go change my clothes now. I can't wait for the two of us to embark on an exciting escapade of eradicating our enemies!"
Xixi has quickly left to her bedroom after speaking in a happy sing-song voice, leaving Shao Cheng and Su Enlai in a strange atmosphere.
"..."
"..."
After a few more minutes of peculiar silence, Su Enlai has finally released a deep sigh before voicing out the question he has been wanting to ask after hearing the most shocking revelation regarding the great change of his nephew.
Although, there is already a clue to Su Enlai's question, still, he couldn't help but want to hear the answer from his nephew's mouth.
"... who is it? Which person causes you to grasp a weapon? The reason why you killed all of those people, the person you wanted to protect at all costs?"
What kind of person has finally manages to wake you up and even causing you to change your cold attitude toward your biological family that has loved you so much?
Su Enlai has stop himself in time from uttering those last words out, after all, there is still a time where he felt extremely frustrated after watching as his younger twin sisters wept in overwhelming sadness and griefs from being unable to help their son's devastating heartache.
"Of course, its Ren Yuan."
Shao Cheng didn't even need a single second to think about the answer, Ren Yuan's name easily spilling out from his mouth while utterly unconscious at the way his lip has spread into a genuinely warm smile, which was full of tenderness while the frozen ice-like emotion in his sapphire pupil has easily melted into warm spring.
The coldness and indifference atmosphere surrounding Shao Cheng's entire body has completely disappeared so easily after Ren Yuan named was mentioned, shifting into a bright and gentle aura, which has instantly cause Su Enlai to see the shadow of his twin sister Su Chunhua on his figure.
It was the same breath of sunshine, bright and dazzling, although his nephew resembles a different type, but it is undoubtedly also warm and cloudless, an atmosphere befitting of a person with a sunny disposition, outgoing and friendly.
At that moment, Su Enlai can finally see that Shao Cheng has been given birth by Su Chunhua, particularly when he couldn't help but finally notice his nephew's beautiful appearance, which was completely hidden and unnoticed before because of the previous attitude that has wholeheartedly dim such an unforgettable appearance.
Nevertheless, Su Enlai didn't overlook the fact that having such an outstanding beautiful appearance at a young age would definitely give his nephew all sorts of trouble, he is fortunate enough that their family is in the high rank of power or else they wouldn't be able to do anything to those powerful family that would definitely eyed his nephew with bad intention.
After all, people pushing their children and relatives to a higher-up just for their family benefit is one of the hidden but well-known acts among the aristocrat family, while there are also others that either kidnapped, capture, or forcefully taking the person they fancy with.
Their era is no longer the same as the distant past filled with magnificent, the Chang Empire continues to grow rotten where it even reach within their core.
Su Enlai couldn't help but worry about their Empire's future, at this rate, rather than worrying about the downfall of their families, the Chang Empire might even face such a situation first, however, he can worry about it later on since he is now facing his nephew situation.
"Uncle Enlai, I know about Brother Yuan infamy around the Chang Capital. It is widely known that it even managed to reach my ears. Nonetheless, I don't care about it. All I know is the fact that no matter what happened I will always stand by Brother Yuan's side."
Even if Ren Yuan end up rebelling once more in the same way in the previous life wouldn't affect his decision and if their situation couldn't help but move in the direction of being called a usurper wrote in history no matter the reason wouldn't shake his determination.
Big deal, he will just take all the blame and accept being known as an evil person in the written history for the later generation in order to make Ren Yuan be remembered as the wisest, enlightened, and greatest Emperor of all.
"Besides, Uncle Enlai, I almost drown to death. If Brother Yuan didn't save me in time, I would have surely died that day."
Completely ignorant of Su Enlai's uneasiness and relief, Shao Cheng finally notices the warm smile he was displaying before he was able to quickly stop the chuckle that wanted to escape his lip when he remembers the sulking man that was trying to hide from him but was unable to.
"If there is no Ren Yuan, I wouldn't be standing in front of you right now. So Uncle Enlai, although I already like my family and even the Su, however, Ren Yuan is the person who opened my eyes. He is basically my life. If he is not there, I would be lost once again and I wouldn't be able to climb up in this life anymore."
So, Su Enlai, you better watch over his well-being too, or else I wouldn't be able to keep my life the way you guys wanted if he were to disappear in this world.
Shao Cheng knows that he is being selfish but he could not stop, so it's better to let them know earlier in order to lessen their pain if there is a time where he has to choose between them.
"So Uncle Enlai, please understand how significant and important Brother Yuan is in my life."
"... I see… I understand. Don't worry, I wouldn't treat him bad and will look out for his safety whenever I could."
After hearing you speak such a heavy and serious statement, what else can I do?
Su Enlai inwardly smiles wryly while unable to stop himself from thinking that his nephew has been planted by the rascal son of that annoying person in the Royal Court.
Damn, he better think of a way on how to make that person son marry into his younger sister's family rather than letting his nephew entered the Ren, after all, unlike the Shao and Su, the Ren Family has the usual compicated trouble of an aristocrat family, such as infighting.
Besides, isn't it just kidnapping that young man away from the Prime Minister's hands? Now that he thought about it, isn't that a great condition? That person crying and despairing face after knowing that his precious son is marrying into another family is definitely a sight to see!
"When you have time, take him with you. I definitely want to meet the person you care so much about."
Su Enlai should also take back his word toward his daughter a few moments ago, maybe also letting Xixi to secretly paint a blood boiling image of his nephew and the prime minister son whenever she can before letting that young man 'accidental' seeing it.
Ren Yuan will definitely get tempt right? Although, he should also warn his daughter to never allow the two young men to cross the line since it wouldn't be good if something happens before they get married.
What happened if that young man changes his attitude after becoming a lover with his nephew?
Su Enlai would never allow his nephew to be hurt, use, and thrown away!
… maybe its time to take out those yellow books he has hidden for years now… Although it wasn't between two men, at least, its better to train his nephew early on regarding those sorts of adult matters right?
Rather, it's better if his nephew is going to be the top in the two young men's future relationships, especially having tight control of his lover is safer.
Alright, Su Enlai has decided, he should teach his nephew once in a awhile, after all, Cheng's father is no good, it was his twin sisters who did the chasing, so Yin wouldn't be any help regarding that matter.
Really that man is such a wimp… the utter frustration he felt after learning his younger sisters has grown-up couldn't help but emerge once more.
"Nephew Cheng, wait for a bit and I'll give you an important item."
"Alright Uncle…"
Shao Cheng couldn't help but suspiciously eyed the back of the older man while having a certain wary feeling, why does his sense keep telling him that there is something wrong with his Uncle?
And he should run away while he could?
