"It was a royal seal, proving that you are my slave"
Wei Shin then swiftly removed his hand from his neck then he quickly bowed his head "I-It is my p-pleasure to r-receive s-such a thing f-from the m-majesty!" he exclaimed with all his mannered voice.
Zi Yuzuo straightened his lips as he watched the male curl it's back in so much pleasure. He didn't know that receiving a royal seal can make a homocus this happy "I didn't know that such thing can make you happy" he said
Wei Shin on the other side blushed, not because he was delighted but because he was nervous and speechless. He was just looking down the whole time and he didn't know that the Prince's face was beautiful as a lady.
"Do you know my name?" Zi Yuzuo asked
Wei Shin widened his eyes "Your m-majesty, Is it really okay for me to know your name?" he asked in astonishment
The Prince poured his own cup another tea then he lifted it up "I will feel obligated if I didn't tell you my name since you've already mentioned yours" he twirled his cup and smelled the aroma scent from the tea.
"T-Then it is my honor to hear such beautiful name" Wei Shin replied
"Zi Yuzuo, the third Prince of this empire, you are my slave so address me as your master"
Zi Yuzuo made a slight smile as he watched Wei Shin's expression. He saw that his tea was still full. "Why don't you drink the tea?" He asked
Wei Shin then quickly picked up the cup but with caution "Pardon my rudeness…" then he took it all in one gulp. The tea was a little bit bitter and sour, his taste buds quite hate it.
"How was it?"
Wei Shin quickly straightened his face the second he heard Zi Yuzuo's question. The tea were came from the Roselia Garden which was cultivated with royal care so he shouldn't made a wrong answer "It's good, your highness" he replied meekly
[Don't they have coffee here?]
DICCU: You can request though
[No thanks! He's scary!]
Minutes have passed by and Wei Shin is starting to get bored because after that tea-asking, the Prince didn't talk again. He was just staring into nothingness while enjoying his tea. There are times that he will glance at Wei Shin and Wei Shin will flip his mood so that the Prince would not notice him.
Zi Yuzuo did indeed have long silky golden hair. When he saved Wei Shin, his hair was tied up with a bun and ribbon so it was a first time for him to saw the Prince's hair without any accessories.
Wei Shin looked at his hair, swaying gracefully with the wind, it was like leaving some yellow particles in the air. His fantasizing view about the Prince's hair was interrupted when Qi Feng suddenly approached Zi Yuzuo, he whispered something to the Prince.
He watched how Qi Feng jolted when the Prince whispered something back to him and then without a second, Zi Yuzuo walked away, leaving them two.
Qi Feng walked towards him while scratching the back of his head "I'm sorry to interrupt your tea time,but the Prince have some business to attend" he said
"But you are his personal attendant?" Wei Shin asked suddenly
Qi Feng smiled at him "The Prince doesn't need some extra protection, he asked me to show you the Mansion" he said reaching out his hand towards the male "Would you let me?"
Wei Shin was flustered when Qi Feng held his hand and said "The Mansion was too big for you, I'm afraid you might get lost"
Wei Shin followed the male, they strided the pathway towards the grassy field of the garden. He was amazed when he saw a big fountain in the middle of the area. He couldn't bring himself to watch it closer.
"Do you like it?" Qi Feng who was behind him asked
Wei Shin nodded vigorously "I like fountains! It was so beautiful!" he exclaimed with his beaming eyes
Qi Feng smiled "Did you see the statue over there?" he asked pointing to something
Wei Shin quickly followed the male's finger and saw a big statue. He scanned it and was amazed at how it was perfectly sculpted. It was the Prince riding a horse, with his sword up pointing in the air.
Qi Feng sat on the grass under the shady tree "Go on and enjoy looking at it, I will stay here for a while watching you from afar" he said
***
"How did I end up here?"
Wei Shin blinked three times, he was alone. "Qi Feng?" he called out but no one answered. The only thing he remembered was a butterfly perched on his shoulder and because he was attracted to its beautiful color, he followed it. He didn't realize that he lost Qi Feng in his eyes.
The garden was indeed big, it was like a maze. Very quiet and aromatic, the wind was chilly and ticklish.
Wei Shin walked a little more, hoping that he would find Qi Feng real soon but when he tried to take a turn, he bumped into something.
"How impertinent! Such a slave tainting my own skin with disgust!!" There was a bit of hatred in the voice even if it sounds small and silvery.
Wei Shin who was crouching on the ground slowly lifted his head, looking up to the male he bumped accidentally. He had long brown curvy hair, bun on top with blue ribbon. His eyes were jade green, long eyelashes and perfect arched eyebrows. Although his lips were small, you can see the annoyance in his expression.
Wei Shin quickly bowed his head down "I am very sorry!! Please forgive my rudeness, your grace!!" he exclaimed in a very apologetic voice afraid to cause a ruckus.
'INFORMATION ACQUIRED'
The irritated male crossed his arms "Who is your master?! He was bold enough to give you permission to freely roam around while nagging someone!" he snarled "You will not get away from this!" he added
'...Gahh!! Should I answer him?! But the Prince was my master?!! Oh my! I don't want to taint his name by saying that he was my master...huhuhu...I don't want my head to be cut that early!!...'
Jinli was so busy talking to herself on how she would answer this male in front of her as Wei Shin when a familiar voice called him out.
"Wei Shin!!"
Wei Shin quickly turned his head to the direction where the voice was coming from and he felt a relief after seeing Qi Feng.
"I'm saved!" he thought
