Its been a week and looking at her Young Master's thin body makes Shu Lan very mad. She hates this Bai Clan more and more that she wants to ransack their life and avenge Bai Huang's injustice life.
He deserves to be happy. To be an OP. He doesnt deserve to be slight. He should be lording everyone and gets arrogant all his life. He should be pampered, fatten up and be celestial.
Tears are pouring at her eyes and she cant control it. Her heart pained for him.
Just a Character in game.
At first that is what she felt about him, about everyone. But now he is the sole existence she wants to acknowledge that is real.
knock.
knock.
Bai Huang control the hissing he felt as he slowly wash his tattered body. The small wounds and scartches in his body is not yet healed and some even have some pus. He doesnt want Shu Lan to see him and get disgusted about him. He pitifully whimpers as he sigh. This body is so white and soft. Not like a man he wish he was. How can he become someone who can be reliable. He cant do anything and his maid is paying for his meal. How shameful. He wants to drown himself and end his life. Bai Huang slaps his both cheeks.
'What am I thinking? I cant die and leave Shu Lan here. This family is rotten. If I leave Shu Lan, I dont know what untoward thing they will do to her. And he promise to get stronger. Stronger than the Bai Clan's Elder! And make them pay for what they did to me.Yes. I cant die even if I want to. And I also promise Shu Lan. To slap Bai Ling and all her maid to death!'(A/N: This promise is exploit by the ML.It should be: To slap once that Auntie that hurt Shu Lan before. *Shrugging shoulder*)
Knocking countinued.
"Young Master?"
Bai Huang startled and stand up hurriedly in the bath. Realize that what he did is stupid he went back and lie on the bath water. He sigh.
"Im here."
"I have been knocking for a while. Did I disturb young Master?"
"..No.Im just thinking."
"I already prepare you some porridge. If your done then come outside."
"Okay."
"Hm."
***
Shu Lan sigh when she see the same Young Master in his clean clothes.
"Yes?" Bai Huang ask.
"Being clean...suits Young Master the most." Shu Lan said and smile brightly.
"Um." Bai Huang hates his white skin and thin body. But If Shu Lan praise him he cant help but be happy.
He ate everything she made for him.
***
"Young Master, I will leave for a while."
They are outside and gazing at the star. Bai Huang is drinking warm tea Shu Lan prepared for him.
Bai Huang hand that is holding the tea cup tremble a bit and then he looks at Shu Lan.
"I will have to meet this person. I dont know when exactly will he appear and how to attract his attention. So can I leave for a month to be sure?"
Bai Huang didnt answered and he lower his gaze. The star that twinkles in the sky now lost its beauty. All he can see is the darkness of the night and a shadow grew in his heart.
"You want to leave me?"
***
Shu Lan didnt know how to answer.
Bai Huang turns around and grab Shu Lan's shoulder and pushes her to the ground.
This posture is obscene.Shu Lan doesnt know what to do and pushes Bai Huang who is on top of her but Bai Huang hugs her tightly saying nothing.
After a good minutes Shu Lan lost her strength and give in.She lay flat on the ground.
Bai Huang didnt say anything or do anything.Just hug her tighter and tighter as if he wants to snap her waist into two .
Shu Lan doesnt know what triggers Bai Huang to act like this.She rubs his hair that is soft and long. Tracing it lovingly.
"Young Master I am not leaving you."
"Liar." Finally, Bai Huang said something after so many minutes passed.
Shu Lan heave a sigh.
"I will tell you where I am going so dont be mad."
Bai Huang shakes his head that is pressing Shu Lan's shoulder and adjust his hand around her waist.
Shu Lan has an helpless expression but also a hint of laughter in her eyes.
"When I am still serving Young Miss Bai, I heard the Master saying a powerhouse leader will visit the Palace. He is eccentric and likes being alone. I am thinking of waiting for him in the forest and attracting his attention."
"NO!" Bai Huang is stubborn but he listens to Shu Lan's story. Will he allow Shu Lan to attract a man? And a Powerful man on top of that? Shu Lan is kind and warm.For him any man will like her. What if she succeed and Shu Lan decided to leave him?
"Young Master, If I can attract this powerful man. Maybe he can help you heal your meridian! You can cultivate.And we can leave here earlier. Please listen to me."
Bai Huang looks up but refuse to let go of Shu Lan. They are so close.Shu Lan who can only look up at Bai Huang become muddle headed as she is thinking of many evil thoughts toward this young man.
'Evil be gone' she chanted and gulp down as she gaze at that pinkish lip in front of her.
"You want to meet this person for me?" Bai Huang is still knitting his brow into a frown but he is betrayed with his voice as he sounds cheerfully happy.
"Um..If its not for Young Master's sake. Who else will I care for?" Shu Lan sigh.
Bai Huang face brighten and the gloom in his heart vanish like its never existed.
"Shu Lan, I lo...Thank you." He almost burst out his feeling. Cant do this. Shu Lan is his maid.If he confess his feelings.Shu Lan will hate him. As a maid how can she reject him.She will feel like he is toying with her and resent him. Cant do this yet. He is still weak. Cant provide for Shu Lan. Cant protect Shu Lan. Once he can do all those things then he can proudly confess to her.
But...He will never going to give her a choice.
Bai Huang once again feel gloomy. He knows his evil heart the most.He cannot let Shu Lan knows.
Shu Lan on the other hand is looking at Bai Huang.His expression changes so fast that its almost funny.
"What is wrong?" Shu Lan ask and touch Bai Huang cheeks.
Bai Huang feels the warmth and rub his cheeks to her palm.
Shu lan thinks its cute and smile.
***
"Shu Lan, you are mine. Why are you trying to hook with a man?" Bai Huang glare at her.
Shu Lan who already gain her freedom sit comfortably and hold Bai Huang's hand. She thought Bai Huang means : You are my maid yet you still want to impress others? And think it is normal reaction.
"Young Master, For me, You are more important.Im doing this only for you. That man is eccentric. His arrival is a secret but leaks to the higher officials. Once he is fed up he will find a place that have some peace of mind. Obviously, no one will think he will come to the forest. I am sure he will come there so I will prepare him a gift. If he accept then I will trade it for healing you.This way, you can get strong faster. And you will not wait for 2 years to leave the Bai Clan."
"You sound so sure." Bai Huang still feels troubled.
Shu Lan is not only Kind and sweet. She is also smart. She will surely be snatch away! He wont allow it.
"I am sure! It is best if he will agree to be your master." she said sighing.
Bai Huang future Master is also one of the elder in the sect.He is honest and Kind and pure hearted. But he is always away and cultivating somewhere leaving Bai Huang to suffer alot of other disciples anger and suffered countless of time. Yet this elder she wish to meet is lazy and always in the sect. He doesnt accept disciple and the only one in his peak. He is lazy and has a temper.Also a someone who can be called a narcissist. But one time he help Bai Huang in the game. He is really powerful and shut people up while still letting people thank him after being slap by him.
Bai Huang looks at Shu Lan who is scheming in her heart with a bright glow in her face.
Bai Huang unconsciously smiles.
