Yan yu walked into the study with her head bowed.
"Yes master you called for me "Yan yu said .
"Ask from today make sure Shi yun gets treated specially"
"S... specially you say "Yan yu said
"Did I stutter"He said in a cold manner.
"No master you didn't I will inform every guards and maiden in the palace"She said and walked out.
"What did you just do Qian Tianqi"Qi Zhi yuan said
"You said to be nice to her and that is what I'm doing"Qian Tianqi said
"Qian Tianqi don't overdo it , you'll only stress yourself,you can't gain her trust that fast "
"The year will soon be over I'm doing what you ask me to do and if this doesn't work I will just have to force her into the marriage"He said
Qi Zhi yuan shook his head in disappointment he turned to go but he called him back.
"Change your behavior towards her "He said
"You don't want me to be nice to Shi yun "
"Do what I ask you to do Zhi yuan don't dare me "He said
"Fine I'll do it but if it goes to far I'll go back"He said
"Leave "Qian Tianqi said
****
Shi yun woke up to see maidens by her side ,they helped her take her bath and even clothed her. She was a bit surprised and scared,where they preparing her for her death? what is going on ?. Shi yun came out of the room and walked to the study room she met some guards on the way and they bowed.
"Don't do that "Shi yun thought. She walked into the room scared.
"M..master what's going on everyone is being nice to me "
"Don't you like it "He asked her.
"It's uncomfortable master, did I do something wrong"
"Am I going to die "She whispered and Qian Tianqi glared at her
"Don't say that "He said
"Master tell me if I'm in trouble I take back everything I say please don't kill me "She said.
"You're not going to die "He said
"Then why is everyone being nice to me , even commander Yan yu"Shi yun said
"I'm scared master"
Qian Tianqi looked confused , why isn't she happy about this does she prefer being bullied?. Qi Zhi yuan told him this was going the way to win get over why was she then acting like this.
Qi Zhi yuan appeared in the study , Shi yun ran to him and hugged him.
"Master , I'm so happy you're here every where is strange master"
Qian Tianqi cleared his throat and Qi Zhi yuan understood what he meant. He removed Shi yun's hands from him and she was shocked.
"Master what happened"She asked.
"Miss , I'm so sorry but you're aware that I'm with Yan yu already she doesn't like it when you hug me "He said
"Master why are you calling me miss I don't like that "
Qi Zhi yuan looked at Qian Tianqi ,but he did nothing.
"Miss I'm sorry but we can't be that close again"
"Why master did I do something wrong "She said as she bowed her head . Qi Zhi yuan wanted to move close but Qian Tianqi glared at him.
"You did nothing wrong but I have to respect her decision "He said.
"Master ... can you explain to commander Yan yu that we are just friends "She said.
"I'm sorry that can't be done "He said .
"Qi Zhi yuan leave "Qian Tianqi said . Shi yun became said.
"Or are you the one who asked him not to talk to me "She said annoyed.
"What if I did "He said as he dropped the stamp and looked at her , she turned to leave but he spoke .
"Don't get sad I don't want to feel pain"
"Can you for once think about others and stop being selfish "She said
"What do you want me to do "He asked her
"Leave me alone "She said as she wanted to walk out.
"Wait here don't move"He told her before he vanished . After a while he came back with a bag made of oil paper and handed it to her.
"Here eat this "
"How do I know it's not poison "She said looking inside the bag to see some roasted Chestnuts
"Why do you think negative when I try to be nice to you "He asked.
"Because your a demon ,you could be planning to kill me "She said
"We have the same soul of you die I die "He said
"Still I don't trust you "She said
"What do I do to gain your trust "
"Why does master want to get the trust of a common human like me "
"Because I might need it "He answered her.
"Why"
"You'll find out very soon "He said
"I'll only trust you when you're like Master Qi"She said
"We all know that's not possible so I can't trust you thank you for the chestnuts "She said before walking out.
Qian Tianqi got angry he used his essence to destroy the room. His eyes became red why couldn't he handle a little twenty four year old human, A GIRL , it frustrated Qian Tianqi he vanished from the room.
Shi yun saw Yan yu scolding one of the maidens she walked up to her .
"Commander "
"Yes Miss"Yan yu answered
"Can you stop calling me that I don't like that , I'm here because you told Master Qi not to talk to me anymore"She said and Yan yu got surprised
"I know you both are in a relationship, but please can you not stop our friendship ..."She didn't complete her sentence when Qi Zhi yuan walked to them.
"Yan yu what's going on"He asked
"Master I was telling her to make you talk to me"She said
"Shi yun I told you that it was her decision"He said
"Master ,but when I told her she acted like she didn't know "She said
"Are you two really together"Shi yun asked.
"Yes "Yan yu said in haste.
"Of course we're together"Qi Zhi yuan said holding Yan yu hands . It really made Yan yu really nervous she bowed her head.
"we're going to get married too"Qi Zhi yuan said
"Yes we are "Yan yu said not realizing what he said after she reasoned it she glared at Qi Zhi yuan.
"Oh "Shi yun said
"Where's Qian Tianqi "He asked.
"In the study I'll be in my room I'll leave first "She said before walking out. He faced Yan yu who was keeping her head down in embarrassment .
"I'm sorry , I didn't mean to say that "He said .
"It's alright master I'll leave first "She said before turning to go.
Qi Zhi yuan walked into the study to see it destroyed.
"Qian Tianqi I warned you "Qi Zhi yuan said as he sighed before vanishing . He appeared in a room where he knew Qian Tianqi would be. The room was actually known to be his lair , he usually went there for peace it was his favorite room and it was mainly because of the water coming out of the rock to the the demon pool in the middle it had only few lights from fire torches.
Qian Tianqi was sitting on the floor putting wine into a cup his hair was let down there were empty jars of wine on the floor .
"Qian Tianqi it's been years since you drank and it wasn't good the last time "Qi Zhi yuan said. Qian Tianqi drank the cup of wine and poured another one into the cup .
"Qian Tianqi I swear I will leave you alone "Qi Zhi yuan said
"You liar , you said it will work ,it didn't she still prefer you... maybe I should just end you then she'll finally like me "He said
Qi Zhi yuan smiled it would be a great advantage to him if he asked the drunk demon a question now . Shi yun had really driven him crazy to the point of drinking.
"Qian Tianqi do you think you like Shi yun"
"I love Shi yun ,but she doesn't seem too like me back , humans are so difficult to get "Qian Tianqi said.
