“How to handle it?” Hua Xiu Yi put down his bowl and chopsticks, muttering with vexation. In the past, he’s thought millions of times of killing Hua Mu Tian but now Hua Mu Tian has ended up in his hand, Hua Xiu Yi felt killing him was more than he deserved. How can his nightmares of many years be canceled out like this?

“I don’t know. Might slowly torture him. That would be more interesting wouldn’t it?” Hua Xiu Yi took a sip of the tea An San brought over and shot a look at Feng Yi Xuan, “What’s so good about the throne? This crown prince rather likes my seat as Crown Prince, why would I want to be the Emperor?”

Feng Yi Xuan declined to comment. He knew Hua Xiu Yi was a smart person. Perhaps in others’ eyes, the throne was a very good thing but a smart person knows that seat meant loneliness and suspicion. There would be no person you could trust. You wouldn’t have any familial relationships or friends nor would you have love, hence why Emperors all refer to themselves as “lone one.” Imperial brother was an exception. Not everyone can sit on that spot and still have friends.

“En!” Feng Yi Xuan uttered a sound in confirmation, counting as agreeing with Hua Xiu Yi’s method.

Feng Yi Xuan and Lan You Nian lingered in Hua empire for three days. In these three days, Hua Xiu Yi would come to the courtyard on time every day. At the start, Feng Yi Xuan would get angry but in the end, he completely ignored Hua Xiu Yi. In any case, Nian Nian didn’t spare a thought to Hua Xiu Yi. Feng Yi Xuan didn’t need to fear anything, so the three of them passed a few peaceful days.

“You’ll be departing tomorrow?” Hua Xiu Yi sat on the rooftop of the courtyard. Not far from him sat Feng Yi Xuan. Lan You Nian was already asleep in the room, leaving the two men to be blown with cold wind.

Hua Xiu Yi opened two pots of sake and passed one to Feng Yi Xuan. Feng Yi Xuan didn’t refuse it and took it. Look good old friends, the two sat on the rooftop drinking sake. If others didn’t know, they would think the two were the best of friends.

“Hn!” Feng Yi Xuan poured back a mouthful of sake. He was grateful towards Hua Xiu Yi because he saved Nian Nian twice. Just like towards the master and Gui Yi them, FEng Yi Xuan felt gratitude towards them. Under circumstances that didn’t affect his and Nian Nian’s interests, Feng Yi Xuan was willing to help.

“Feng Yi Xuan, do you know? I was once jealous of you. At the the same time I envy you!” Hua Xiu Yi chuckled as he looked at Feng Yi Xuan sitting a distance from him, “We both have uncommonly good looks, status, and identity. I always considered you my opponent but when I met Nian’er, I knew I have lost!”

Feng Yi Xuan glanced at Hua Xiu Yi with a complicated look. He wasn’t oblivious to Hua Xiu Yi’s feelings for Nian Nian but all people were selfish beings. He was the same. In his life, the one thing he can never let go of was Nian Nian. If he didn’t take into consideration of Hua Xiu Yi’s saving hand, Feng Yi Xuan will get rid of Hua Xiu Yi.

“Power or status, none of it matters, it’s not as reassuring as having that woman’s smile!” Hua Xiu Yi threw back the spirits and gulped until he started coughing and suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter was bold, “But you don’t need to panic. I know she only has you in her heart so I won’t have any illusions. If there is a next life, I will wait for her cleanly and steal her back!”

Feng Yi Xuan’s air froze over, “In the next life, Nian Nian is still mine!” So stop fantasizing. Every lifetime, he will find Nian Nian and continue walking to the end!

“Hey, you are so tyrannic. One day Nian’er will become bored of it!” Hua Xiu Yi said jealously and nodded in confirmation. Looking carefully at Feng Yi Xuan, he continued, “What is so good about you? Such a big icicle, doesn’t Nian’er find your coldness unpleasant? Don’t look like you know how to be romantic…”

Though Feng Yi Xuan was a little tipsy, he was much better in comparison to Hua Xiu Yi. As Hua Xiu Yi commented on each of his shortcomings, Feng Yi Xuan’s face turned blacker. Then, Feng Yi Xuan stood, refusing to speak any longer with this drunk maniac. He’d rather hug the soft and fragrant Nian Nian.

“Feng Yi Xuan!” Hua Xiu Yi dropped the pot of sake, “Treat her well! She’s worth it!”

Feng Yi Xuan spared Hua Xiu Yi a rare look and nodded, “There’s no need for you to say so. I will naturally treat Nian Nian well. She is my life!”

“That’s good!” Hua Xiu Yi laid on the rooftop, continuing to mutter, “That’s good! That’s good…” Even if the one accompanying her isn’t me, even if the one treating her well isn’t me, it’s fine as long as she’s happy!

After Feng Yi Xuan took a bath and climbed into bed, Lan You Nian very naturally snuggled into Feng Yi Xuan’s arms and mumbled sleepily, “You drank?” She thought the two were discussing some serious matters. It turns out they went to drink alcohol.

“En, the smell too strong?” Feng Yi Xuan took a sniff at himself. When he was bathing, he deliberately washed off the smell of alcohol. He didn’t expect Nian Nian still noticed it. Feng Yi Xuan decided that he’ll drink less wine. If Nian Nian doesn’t like it, he won’t drink any.

Lan You Nian took a careful sniff and shook her head. The smell of wine mixing with the unique scent of Feng Yi Xuan’s body mesmerized Nian Nian’s heart even more. She muttered softly, “No, Xuan smells good!”

“Nian Nian, thank you for loving me!” Feng Yi Xuan hugged Lan You Nian tightly. He knew how lucky and blessed he was to have obtained Nian Nian’s love when he looked at Hua Xiu Yi. Otherwise, he would be even more desolate than Hua Xiu Yi.

Lan You Nian giggled. How can one say thanks for love? But Lan You Nian understood the excitement in Feng Yi Xuan’s heart, and asked, “Xuan, if I didn’t fall in love with you, what would you do? Will you let me go and let me find my happiness?”

“No!” Without even considering it, Feng Yi Xuan refuted, “Even if you don’t love me, I will bind you to my side and not let you leave!” Feng Yi Xuan admitted he was very domineering. In his life, he met many people and objects but Nian Nian was the only one he loved, so even if Nian Nian didn’t love him, even if there were losses on both sides, he won’t let go!

“Haha, why wouldn’t I fall in love with you? My Xuan is the best!” Lan You Nian giggled. Such a good man was difficult to meet in a thousand years.

Feng Yi Xuan wanted to say more but realized the girl in his arms already fell asleep but the smile on her lips was beautiful. Feng Yi Xuan kissed the corner of Lan You Nian’s lips and shut his eyes, a night of dreams…

On this night, on the rooftop, Hua Xiu Yi didn’t care for his still yet to recover injuries and blew a night of cold wind but his heart was peaceful. If he couldn’t possess it, it was still good to bless and protect it…
