Chapter 61: Huang Ya Secret. Shao Cheng Aversion. Ren Yuan Being Stupid On His Friend Eyes.
Somewhere, a young ten-year-old girl riding a carriage is showing a sad expression causing the young servant opposite of hers to sigh in melancholy, her eyes flashing a pitying look.
"Bamboo Leaf… I want to continue staying in that town."
"I am sorry, but your father has urged us to come back home soon."
Hearing about her father, Huang Ya's eyes flashed an angry look, before it turned aggrieved since there is nothing she can do but follow what her father wanted.
Looking in the distance to where she has been staying for a while now, that place was her gamble of getting a certain chance and possibility of a better future… but in the end, it seemed that she missed that chance now.
However, when numerous broken memory flashes on her mind, Huang Ya eyes glint in stubbornness and determination.
No… there is still a chance… she won't just give up, with that, Huang Ya has close her eyes in order to glimpse the broken memories that have suddenly appeared in her dreams for a while now.
Although she doesn't know why she has this memory of another life and about the future events but she will not let go of it, this is for her survival, she will use everything in her power to not be sacrificed for the sake of her family ambitions.
"Shao Cheng..." murmuring the name of the person that has created a great impact and power in her bizarre memory of the future event… even though the information isn't complete and bases only from what that she in the future just heard and learn, Huang Ya will not let go of any chance.
As for believing about the absorbed memories, once upon a time, her departed mother has a rather unique skill which is the reason why her father has taken her mother as his wife in the first place, however, after learning that she didn't inherit her mother unique power when she grew up, one could say that her current standing in the family is shaky at best.
And after her mother died five years ago, and his father another wife has become the main wife, then the only reason why she was still being respected and isn't forgotten to this day is because of her mother's side of the family.
But from the memory she got, her mother's side of the family wouldn't save her in the long run, so right now, her lifeline depends on getting Shao Cheng appreciation, all her broken memories seemed to have been a focus on that person's existence.
Even though she couldn't take over and save him during one of his life-threatening situation from the hands of those common family that has saved him during his drowning period because of being forced to get back soon by her father after the snowstorms that have happened, then she will just have to plan for the next time.
What she needed to do is to become one of Shao Cheng's important people… after all, those common family has become rich and prosperous from just saving Shao Cheng life base from what she heard in that memory, especially the young boy in that poor family that was able to become a high-ranking official in the court by the help of Shao Cheng alone.
With that, a carriage carrying a ten-year girl continue to travel on, while currently scheming a plan on that young mind of hers.
And in another place, a person wearing almost in a black robe that can easily be seen to be a grown-up woman base from the shapely body of her was currently standing almost on top of a tall tree while gazing ahead with dangerously narrowed eyes as she quickly observes some of the carriages that drive on the main travel route.
"... urgh… it so hard to find him this time…"
With a deep helpless sigh, the woman in black has gracefully gotten off from the tall tree that she was standing before intending to travel on the next town, she needed a break because she has been feeling tired and fatigued from trying to locate her stubborn and cold young master.
Days pass by before the time of the Festival Celebration was finally happening, however, in a residence, there was currently a troublesome problem currently happening that cause Xing Ning and Tian Ying to warily glance at the two people that we're currently silently facing each other.
Currently, a young man in a snow-white robe is suddenly emitting a cold atmosphere around him while facing a young man in a gorgeous crimson robe which was a few years older has his eyes dangerously narrowed down.
"Don't be stubborn Whitey, just listen to me alright?"
Shao Cheng sapphire eyes suddenly glint coldly before glancing at the object in Ren Yuan's hand with utter aversion on his face before swiftly turning around without another word causing the older man to suddenly quickly catch up with a persistent insistence voice while a frustrated expression appear on his face.
"Come on! Just wear this alright?"
Pale lip thining in a straight line to show his absolute displeasure, Shao Cheng has quickly walked away before swiftly closing the door to his own room after arriving and leaving an annoyed Ren Yuan outside that was planning to just open the door and entered without any permission only to stand still when a rather freezingly cold voice reaches his ears.
"Leave me be."
When Ren Yuan wanted to display his temper a cracking sound of an object has suddenly resounded inside the young man room, enough reason to tell Ren Yuan not to push Whitey bottom line right now because that has been a warning.
Scratching his head in irritation, Ren Yuan has returned with a rather foul mood to his two friends that have remained to where they are, completely not wanting to mix up with the problem of their friends that strangely appeared to be a husband and wife lover spat.
"What is wrong with Whitey? I am just trying to protect him!"
Xing Ning that couldn't remain silent, took one look at his friend confuse and astonished expression alongside the frustrating voice has caused him to sigh in defeat before feeling a slight pity to the young man that has left and perfectly on his right mind to ignored his currently stupid friend certain action.
While Tian Ying that has tried to stay silent was unable to stop himself anymore as a loud guffaw escape his lip, especially finding the current Ren Yuan action so amusing, he never knows that his friend can be this stupid too.
"Why are you laughing?"
Suddenly, Ren Yuan narrowed his eyes dangerous while shooting a dark look at Tian Ying that was currently laughing his ass off causing the young man in blue robe to suddenly shut up, although his lip remains smiling and then he quickly started speaking to his totally clueless friend.
"In the first place, why do you want Whitey to wear that certain object?"
Blinking his eyes, Ren Yuan looks down at the item on his hands which is a bamboo hat with a white veil.
"Of course to hide Whitey appearance, isn't that easy to guess already by looking at this item?"
Xing Ning and Tian Ying couldn't help but glance at each other when Ren Yuan remained completely clueless about what is wrong with his actions before Xing Ning has let out a sigh and open his mouth to give a wake-up call to his rather stupid friend.
"Ren, that object is specifically used for women to wear… there is no way that Whitey will use that..." If it is me, I will definitely not use it.
Suddenly, Ren Yuan roll his eyes like it was the two of them that was being difficult and stupid causing Xing Ning and Tian Ying eyes to twitch.
"Of course I know, but some of those men in the Capital wear it too you know? So what is wrong with Whitey using it? Besides, isn't it better to use this so that Whitey can be protected from the eyes of those nasty women and men out there with evil thoughts when we go out later on?"
Trying really hard to not roll his eyes, Xing Ning sigh in frustration before speaking in a matter of fact tone of using a better object rather than that definitely insulting item in Whitey eyes while Tian Ying's shoulder continues to shakes from trying to hold his laugher.
"At least choose something manly to Whitey opinion, like, maybe a mask?"
"..."
Unbeknown to the three young men currently discussing with each other, a young man in white robe has quietly left his room, before skilfully utilizing his talent of avoiding and evading people as he completely left the residence without alerting the hidden dark guard surrounding the place.
In which a flustered and panic Ren Yuan has soon learned after an hour in a rather loud voice causing Xing Ning and Tian Ying that was currently eating their early dinner, while their friend wanted to eat a certain someone food, to break their chopsticks in surprised.
"... what is wrong this time?"
Can these two people give them a break?
