Isn’t Chapter 318 much better than my brother’s poor handwriting?
Bu Ruo sighed: "Her mother will not want that child. The nosy mother loves that wild father so much, how could she possibly give birth to someone else's child."
"Besides, in the eyes of Xianshi and her mother, they will eventually leave this plane with her wild father. If they have another child, will they take it with them in the future? Will the wild father dislike them?"
After a long moment, Jin Congcong smacked his lips and said, "That nosy dad must be quite good-looking. I wonder how he compares to the prince. I'm really curious."
Bu Ruo looked at the two children practicing calligraphy in the courtyard and smiled, "Don't be curious, you will know soon. If my guess is correct, we should change our itinerary this time and go to Beining first. After we finish dealing with the matter in Beining, we will go to Nanxia to find Second Senior Brother."
"Mom, why are you here? Look at Bubu's handwriting. Isn't it much better? Although it's not as beautiful as my brother's, isn't it much better than my senior brother's dog-crawling handwriting?"
"Hey, Senior Brother, don't glare at Bubu. Grandpa said the same thing. Grandpa said that Senior Brother's handwriting is like a dog's crawling, not even as beautiful as a herb."
Jin Congcong gritted his teeth when he heard Bubu's words. Humph, why didn't the old man fall into the dam when it collapsed that day? What a pity.
…
In a small mountain village outside Yicheng, a man in black clothes and a mask was kneeling in a bamboo house.
"All dead?"
"My Lord, they are all dead. I saw the rain coming and wanted to come back to report, but who would have thought that as soon as I left the mountain, a bolt of lightning instantly split the entire mountain flat."
The man in red sitting in front of the window had his shirt half-open and couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the man in black lowering his head.
"Hehe, why, isn't it time for you to blush when you first saw me?"
"I dare not."
"Luoyang, it's boring when you do this. I still like the way you stared at me before."
The man in red touched his face resentfully: "Am I not good-looking anymore?"
The man in black lowered his head even more: "Master, please don't do this."
"Luoyang, you know I like you the most, but why can't you look at me more? I told you that you don't have to wear a mask like everyone else. I like the way you see me blush."
The man in red lost interest when he saw the other man kneeling there motionless. "Forget it, do whatever you want. Just stay by my side."
"By the way, don't go to that mountain anymore. The thunder will flatten it and won't leave any trace. If you want to blame someone, just blame them for being unlucky."
"Luoyang, have you seen the Regent? How does he compare to your master? I heard that the Regent's wife is very beautiful, I don't know if she is worthy of me."
The man in black raised his head: "Master, don't you already have Concubine Rou and the Princess? Why is he still..."
"Oh, are you jealous?"
The man in red stood up and leaned over to her, lifting her chin with his hand and coaxing her: "Don't be angry, that princess is not my child, and I have never touched Concubine Rou. I just had a face, and everything else was done by Songzhu."
"You know, Songzhu likes Concubine Rou, but unfortunately, he got possessed while practicing martial arts and his appearance changed drastically. But I promised him that when I find a way back, I will take the mother and daughter back with me and tell them the truth. I can't bear the reputation forever, right? I don't want two idiots around."
"This way, I won't let him down for having been by my side for so many years, and it will also fulfill one of his wishes."
"But speaking of which, Luoyang, do you have any wishes?"
The man in black, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly looked up at the man in red, his eyes full of determination and seriousness. "I only want to be with you and protect you while I'm alive. If I die one day... I hope you'll forget me."
The red-clothed man paused and sat back on the bamboo chair. "You won't die. Once we find what we're looking for, we'll have to find a way to get back. Have you forgotten we still have a grudge to take?"
"Hey, I still like you when you were little. You were so cute back then. How come you've become so lifeless now? You don't look like the little girl who used to run after me with a silly smile."
"Forget it, forget it. Go back and rest. Stay by my side and don't run around anymore. Do you know how worried I was about you when I heard the thunder just now?"
"Hey, how can I seduce the Regent Princess? I've read a lot of good storybooks here over the years, so I'll give it a try someday. What if I succeed? I'm really curious about such a magical woman."
The figure in black paused as he reached the door, feeling a slight pang in his heart. Did he like me? Haha, maybe he liked me, but it was more of a possessive desire.
"Luoyang, why are you here? Don't you need to serve the master?"
The man in black took off his mask, revealing a beautiful face. "Songzhu, you like Concubine Rou and have a child with her. How does that feel? How does it feel to like someone?"
A hint of tenderness flashed across Songzhu's face beneath the mask, and even his body, which had been tense for years, relaxed a little. "Master has already told you that I like her. I just want to see her happy. I want to hold anything she likes in front of her with both hands and give it to her. I just want to be with her every moment, even if she doesn't know who she is."
"What's wrong with you today? Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Luoyang, you should know that the master's mind is like that of a child. Some things...don't take them seriously, or you might get hurt."
Luo Yang looked up at the sunset in the sky: "At first, I thought that Concubine Rou and the princess were my masters and had given up, but now...yes, if they really liked me, how could I think of seducing other women and becoming interested in other women."
"Perhaps I am just a partner on his road to revenge. In his eyes, all other people and things are just things that can be discarded. Only power is what he always wants."
"I've known this all along, but... I was greedy."
Songzhu sighed and said, "Don't think too much, just let everything take its course. I can feel that the master treats you differently from others. When the master heard the thunder, he rushed out of the house the moment he heard it, and vomited blood from calculating. Only when he knew you were okay did he turn around and go back into the house."
No one knew what Luoyang was thinking. He just continued to look at the sky silently until it was completely dark and then he disappeared from the spot.
…
A few days later...
"Bubu, what's wrong with you today? Why aren't you practicing calligraphy but just staring at me? Is it because I'm so beautiful that you've fainted?"
The little girl was so focused on Bu Ruo that she didn't even realize she was holding the brush upside down and rubbed it on her face.
