After witnessing such a shocking scene even Yu Qin couldn't easily say a single word that can simply explain what he just behold with his own eyes.

"Ah~... so…. Incredible…"

And as he gazes down upon the deliriously fainted woman on his arms that has suddenly fainted from too much excitement which he has unconsciously quickly moved over to catch her before falling down hard in the ground.

After all, Yu Qin has the notion of treating the ladies with respect, and care in which he just doesn't allow himself to neglect the woman before him, unless they become a danger to their lives then he will not remain kind toward them.

Even if his childhood friend cousin is an extremely weird and crazy woman doesn't change the fact that she was still one of the ladies, so he needed to give the care she deserves.

".... brother…. Did that… brother…so intimate… brother… so possessive…. Brother teasing… brother embracing someone…. Brother…."

Sweating on his forehead, Yu Qin turned at the currently mumbling Shao Yan that is apparently sitting down on the ground with his arms wrapped around on his bent leg that reaches over his chest, rocking in swaying motion along with empty eyes that seemed to stare deliriously in the distance with a faraway look.

Ah… he is broken...

Of course, even he was shocked to see that side of the usually well known hollow young master and there are no proper words that can explain what they have just witnessed, especially when the most bewildering fact for himself was the fact that Shao Cheng was able to even intimately touch Ren Yuan so easily just like that, much less make his friend vulnerable and obedient being the most astonishing matter.

With inquisitive and curiosity flashing on his eyes, Yu Qin turned his attention back to the two young men that are hugging intimately on each other in the distance before the scene of what happened to emerge on his mind once more.

So that is how the famous hollow young master reacts and interacts with the people that manage to enter his heart? Although from the look of it, Ren Yuan is a bit more in a special case with just how utterly possessive and obsessive Shao Cheng action from before.

It was rather heavy and a bit disturbing to the point that a chill has run down on his spine, while the two people besides him were too busy on their own problem and interest that Yu Qin was completely sure didn't sense that important part of the whole situation.

And for Ren Yuan who is usually so heavily guarded to others, didn't even sense that side of the person before him and seemed to relish on what happened to him the entire time is absolutely unbelievable or did he just disregard it? That man is hard to genuinely read so Yu Qin isn't quite sure.

Well from what Yu Qin's witness so far he couldn't help but believe that these two people appeared to complement each other perfectly and from what he also observes, Shao Cheng and Ren Yuan are absolutely and utterly clueless and oblivious of how unusual and ambigious the two of them react toward each other every single time.

Hm… this might also be an interesting development… Ren Yuan being soft to Shao Cheng will definitely help his childhood friend to escape most of the pressing dangerous situations, especially when Shao Yan is completely oblivious in the political matter, well unfortunately most of the Shao Family too from what he has seen so far.

However, as he gazes upon the third son of the Shao family, it seemed that it wouldn't be the case now though, even Yu Qin can tell how this young man can be crafty and utterly different from the rest of the Shao Family that is more inclined into the military side.

Yes, that chill he felt watching the young man deal with their enemies from before still remain hiddenly inside him is a great reminder that this one shouldn't be trifled with so easily, beside someone who can make Ren Yuan react that way without the person knowing how unusual he is reacting is definitely not a normal person.

Besides, he already uses his only last right to request Ren Yuan helped from their present situation, so these two young men being close is definitely a good thing, especially if it becomes deeper later on.

Suddenly a rather amusing smile appears on his face before quickly pulling the deliriously fainted Xixi and deliriously out of it Shao Yan back to the hideout before those two young men learn that they have been spying on them the entire time and with that, Yu Qin finally left the oblivious love bird alone.

"Big Brother Yu Yu, come on let's go back?"

Shao Cheng gently holding the man hand with a tight grip along with a blossoming smile on his face has begun to tug him over toward their resting place while unquestionably feeling utterly delighted and happy that Ren Yuan wouldn't ignore him anymore much less break their friendship with each other because of what he has done.

As for the abnormal behaviors that Shao Cheng found himself unconsciously performing to Ren Yuan, he just decided to continue ignoring it since nothing serious is happening anyway unless he suddenly crosses the line of what is appropriate between the two of them then that will be when he will deal with it.

Well, it's not like it was going to happen so, Shao Cheng shouldn't even worry about that object, after all, crossing the line with Ren Yuan?

Please, that will never happen in a million years.

But for now though, rather than seeing the man run away, ignoring and keeping his distance from him, Shao Chen would just continue to hold on so Ren Yuan won't slip away from his grasp, which have now become the most important impression about the whole ordeal.

Why was he trying to stay away from Ren Yuan anyway? Didn't Shao Cheng decide to keep following him in this new life? He should just continue sticking with him just like the decision he made before.

Inwardly nodding his head in acceptance over those thoughts, Shao Cheng was glad that he was able to discover that lesson before everything become more complicated and worrying.

"Alright…"

With a slight gentle scratch on his still flush cheeks, Ren Yuan allowed himself to be lead back to the hidden hideout with an obedient appearance, the effect of what happened still affecting him in one way or another, especially when he suddenly glimpses at the young man rather attractive smile that causes him to become flustered inside before promptly glancing away from such confusing appearance.

Really… Whitey is so foul… why does this young man have such a unmatchless beautiful appearance that even those well-known woman over their beauties in the Capital doesn't stand a single chance of competing against the young man?

But this is also worrying… if Ren Yuan was even affected by this young man's appearance, especially those confusing foul smiles, then what about those scoundrels and rascals in the Capital that is unlawful later on?

No!

Ren Yuan needs to protect Whitey from those guys, yes definitely the male population because they are the most dangerous individuals that will cause trouble and difficulty in Whitey life, after all, he was absolutely sure that the young man will be targeted by those filthy bastards because of his rare exceptional beauty.

Schemes, plots, and tricks, Ren Yuan can easily estimate about what they will do to get him.

As for using their family power... suddenly he remembers the Shao Family that Whitey belongs to and from the information that he possesses in mind, the Shao Family is one of the most aristocrat family that has a strong hold of power over in the military and well known to be extremely loyal to the Royal family which is a bit worrying in a different level.

But at least, Whitey will be well protected by the power that they have right now, only for now though, Ren Yuan was quite sure that they will be targeted by those ambitious and power-hungry people, along with being used by the Royal family that has already become completely rotten to the core.

It seemed that he has to watch out for Whitey safety along with what is going on to his family from now on, especially those wicked and malicious schemes that will continue to happen, after all, from what is happening right now, those people have finally begun their move.

To even target the sole heir of the Shao Family just showed about how ambitious those people are, even Ren Yuan know that his own family wouldn't be left alone.

Although, Ren Yuan's lip couldn't help but curl up into a charming wide smile while his eyes brighten up when he outwardly spoke the words that he has been wanting to know the entire time after meeting the young man.

"Shao Cheng…"

"Um?"

Hearing his complete name being called out, Shao Cheng stopped running while pulling Ren Yuan back to their hideout in which he could already see in the distances away from where they stood before turning around to Ren Yuan only to become almost blinded by how bright, dazzling and charming the smile that is being shown his way.

Somehow, Shao Cheng's throat went dry for a bit which he let out a soft cough before swallowing a bit hard and slightly shifted his eyes away before glancing right back once more.

"I'm happy to finally know your complete name."

"..."

With his eyes widening a bit, Shao Cheng watches as both of his hand was suddenly gently grasp by Ren Yuan's own hands that felt so warm over his cold one before gazing at the sparkling peach blossom grey eyes that swiftly curve up in a charming crescent moon causing the man entire exquisite features to become more captivating than ever.

"Let's properly introduce each other alright? I'll go first. Hello! My name is Ren Yuan! The only son of the present Prime Minister that serves our Chang Empire and since I'm older than you, then this Big Brother will protect you from now on! Little Cheng~ you can count on me alright? After all, we are close friends now which can also be called best friends! Hahaha!"

Seeing the excitement and happiness expression on Ren Yuan's face along with the wonderful sound of laugher coming from him, Shao Cheng expression turned soft once more, thin lip spreading in a more tender smile and sapphire eyes flashing a bit of doting look as he gazes upon the person before him.

Gripping the man hands with a steady and powerful strength but still retain carefulness which seemed to contain infinite gentleness upon it before gently rubbing his thumb gently over the hands against his with a feeling of sentiment in complete wonder that this is happening right now.

Everything is different between the two of them in this new life, no killing each other, no hatred, no scheming over their downfall in which has cause Shao Cheng to closes his eyes for a second before opening it once more as he met the gaze of the man that has become special on his way.

And so with an incredibly soft and tender voice, Shao Cheng spoke his own introduction with a hidden strength and commitment resides within it which only he will ever comprehend what he is feeling in this very precious moment.

"It's nice to meet you, Ren Yuan. My name is Shao Cheng, the third son of the present Great General that protects our Chang Empire. I'll gladly accept your kind offer in which I will follow you from now on ok? Although I know that you will watch over my back, nonetheless, you can also count on me alright? After all, just like you said, we are best friends now."

Hey Ren Yuan… I'm impossibly so happy right now.

We will definitely have absolutely different fates and destinies on what happened from our previous life.

And the first step we caused as a great change was to become friends and not enemies in this new life, and I will make sure that future in that life will never occur once more.

At least, let us produce a pleasant and fitting ending in this life alright?
