I always find my way back to you, A Dong Hua and Feng Jiu story

chapter 02

Being one of the companions of the bride, he saw Feng Jiu greeting them at the entrance of her aunt's cave, she smiled at him so brightly that made others look around and hide their smiles, raising his eyebrows at her as he thought about her next move.
 
Feng Jiu: gu gu isn't ready yet, since you are already here why not enjoy the views in the meantime?
Mo Yuan: Why isn't seventeen ready?
Feng Jiu: oh nothing important, someone's hand slipped and ruined one of the jewels, it will be fixed in the next few hours.
Zhe Yan called her in an alarming and not approving tone: Feng Jiu?
Feng Jiu: what? it was heavy.
But she was all smiling again, turning her eyes at dijun and winking at him.
Lian Song hardly hides his smile: since it’s the case we have no other choice than waiting, dijun please feel free to enjoy the views with her highness, since she is so polite and arranges something for her gust to not become bored of waiting, we will stay here.
Dijun shook his head and turned to leave the group, Feng Jiu smiled at Lian song and bow in respect before following dijun and even told in low voice: I’ll manage that Cheng Yu be seated beside your highness for the banquet.
Dijun turned his head and look at her but she smiled again and run to him, she was playing around him, running ahead sometimes and sometimes around him, when they left the sight of the group dijun took her arm and make her to stay, staring at her eyes asked: planning with heaven prince now?
Feng Jiu: not at all, but he helped me so of course I should help him back.
Dijun: what about ruining the jewel of heaven’s bride?
Feng Jiu: she is first my gu gu then their bride.
Dijun in a smoother voice: still unhappy about that?
Feng Jiu: they don't deserve her.
Dijun: your aunt loves crown prince, you should understand that better than others.
Feng Jiu murmured: I know.
Sensing Dijun’s stare at herself she continued in a lower voice: it’s going to be very lonely here, dijun can you tell me that they are not going to harm gu gu again?
Dijun: little fox no one can assure the future, not even me.
Feng Jiu: I know but heavenly lord listens to you, what if he wants to harm gu gu again, or made the crown prince get married again?
Dijun: If someone wants to hurt your aunt and I be able to help her out I will.
Feng Jiu smiled all over her face and taking his sleeve in her hand looked at him with adored eyes.
Dijun: Where are you taking me little fox?
Feng Jiu: oh not a particular place, I just want to show you around and enjoy the fresh air with you.
Dijun nodded his head but didn't say anything.

Dijun was staring at Feng Jiu, the guy in front of her offering wine was the 11th, how many more going to drink with her exactly?
Feng Jiu accepted the offer politely, she felt Dijun's eyes on herself which made her enjoy the evening very much, but the second she noticed that her uncle in law’s cousin finding her way to him she turned her head and stared in his eyes with anger.
With her staring back at him in such an angry gaze Dijun rose his eyebrows, she was accepting several drinks since the beginning of the banquet and now was angry with him? "Interesting" he thought and showed a hint of smile, bad lock for him it was the exact same moment that Ye Hua’s cousin reached his side and saw the small smile, same as Feng Jiu who stormed toward him angrily before she could even talk. Dijun smiled again, Feng Jiu never showed jealousy before, this way her face really was cute.
Feng Jiu: Dijun I came as you command.
Dijun leaned his head at his palm and watched her in entertainment, she was a little drunk and it seems he is going to enjoy a show.
Feng Jiu: dijun and I have some issues to talk about, you may leave for now.
Zhi Yue: you can’t order me
Feng Jiu: it's not that I can't, I’m just not interest to, but now I don't have time to play with you, just leave.
Lian song heard their conversation and decided to help Feng Jiu again, maybe she will arrange a private meeting for him and Cheng Yu after that. He called for his nephew and dragged her away from the interesting couple.
Feng Jiu smiled at him again and told with her mouth "I will repay"
Dijun really was enjoying but teased her: how I can’t recall commanding your present?
Feng Jiu: because your majesty doesn’t have a good memory.
Dijun: really?
Feng Jiu: what else?
Dijun: Well since I don't have a good memory and can’t remember what was the matter you can return to your seat now.
Feng Jiu: and let that princess of yours come back, no way.
She sat next to him without invitation.
Dijun: you are drunk.
Feng Jiu: just a little.
Dijun: after that much wine that you received it's more than just a little.
Feng Jiu: I being polite.
Dijun: oh.
Feng Jiu: you know you could just come and offer me one too.
Ignoring her statement he answered: you make everyone looking at you right now, you should leave for your seat.
Feng Jiu: dijun?
Dijun: hmm?
Feng Jiu: what if I really go? you always tell me to leave because you know I won’t, or I will come back. but if I really leave will you come to me instead?
Dijun: You really are drunk little fox, let call for your uncle to take you back.
Feng Jiu: drink with me then I will leave.
Dijun: since when did you start to negotiate?
Feng Jiu: since I fell for you.
she put her head on the corner of table and watched him for a while: you seemed like a very complicated man but actually are a very simple one, I find out if I want to win you I should learn to play your game.
His eyes were full of surprise, she smiled and told: I won this one, so you should drink with me.
Shaking his head, he conjures another cup and fills them both, gives one to her and takes the other, Feng Jiu: to more wins.
Dijun showed a real smile for the very first time in his immortal life.

Banquet was over and everyone returned to their places, the whispering about the little highness of Ching Chu and the former ruler of heavens and earth disturbed the peace of night. After the two of them sharing drinks, her highness left the place and asked that tree spirit Migu to take her to their place. not much longer dijun left too, and gave them one more reason to whisper, dijun is going to Ching Chu's queen room.
"at least nobody will go near her in her time here." dijun thought.
He didn't go to her but she already was in his room: little fox aren't you done for today?
Feng Jiu was on his bed, her knees bending under herself staring at his face with wide eyes yet an innocent look: I don't want to be alone tonight.
sitting on bed next to her he asked her reason.
Feng Jiu: I heard them betted on the long of gu gu's marriage, I wanted to beat them but that way the party would be ruined and I would be the responsible one instead of that rude heavenly peoples.
Dijun: you should not listen to them.
Feng Jiu: I Didn’t want to but I have foxy ears.
Dijun: you are still drunk, if you sleep all will be forgotten.
Feng Jiu: wasn't my aunt who suffered the most? Why does everyone take pity on the crown prince? my aunt is the number one beauty and is a high goddess, she even gave up her throne, I can't understand why they talked that way.
Dijun knew how much she loves her aunt, and how much missed her since she keeps leaving her for her fiancé’s death and then for his coming back to life. he smooths her hairs and told: you just told all the reason, your aunt isn't someone that they can defeat so they put their envy in hurtful words.
Feng Jiu: I'm happy you are here for her, I wish I could be here too.
Dijun: you should trust her and her husband.
Feng Jiu: dijun you know as well, my uncle in law is a powerful man but when it comes to supporting and keeping his beloved one safe he is a real disaster. He never can stand up to his grandfather and when he becomes that way my aunt will follow him because she loves him a lot and is bond with him.
Dijun: So you not just worry, you already think about it all and make your own scenario as well.
Feng Jiu: Of course I did, I am the queen of Ching Chu and my aunt's future child will be my heir. I should be sure about his/her safety.
Dijun: Why do I think that you are going to ask for something else?
Feng Jiu: dijun really is smart. I admire myself.
Dijun eyebrows almost fetch his hairs: what's for?
Feng Jiu played sweetly: for falling for you.
Dijun smiled for the second time in one night: ok little fox tell me what do you want?
Feng ju answered she will tell him later and fall asleep in his bed making him carry her back to her own room almost across the heavens.
