The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time Chapter 164
Advertisement
Just a few minutes that Shao Cheng has sneaked out from the Shao Residence, in the middle of the night, a silhouette of the delicate figure of Mei can be seen standing once more just a safe distance away from Shao Cheng living quarter.
"..."
And after staying a few silent moments, Mei was acting differently from usual, especially her strange expression while staring at the darkroom of Shao Cheng, simply letting her know that the person inside was finally sleeping this time unlike the past few days of staying awake so late at night.
Soon, various thought has run on Mei mind while she stared at the place where the person she extremely fancy stayed at, nevertheless, she couldn't stop the memories of today situation to emerge in her mind that has quickly caused her expression to become twisted.
Especially when an emotion of panic and fear started to arise within her when she remembers the young man with such an attractive and fascinating face way of interacting so intimately close to the Young Master that she has served from early years.
Mei felt that her treasure was going to be taken away by that person soon, that she couldn't stop the growing worries that are now plaguing her insanely.
While in the other place of the Shao Residence, Shao Chonglin can be seen standing in the study room while in front of his twin Mothers, Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei that was showing a grim expression in their faces.
"These families… did Little Cheng really mentioned it?"
"Yes, Mothers. I hate to admit it but Brother Cheng has completely known all about what has been going on in our residence for a long time now… it's just that, he just mentioned it now since… the start of his change of attitude."
"Ah… it's alright Chonglin, you can state that because our Little Cheng has once more started viewing us as his family that he finally let us know all about this."
Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei glance at each other before showing a complicated expression after knowing some of the spies staying in their residence, although they already figure out that people have been targeting the Shao Family, however, to see so many powerful families in the list is glaring itself.
And no matter how much they tried to secretly deal with them in the shadow, Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei weren't just meant to be talented in that area, yes, they have some knowledge regarding some of the way to deal it however it doesn't the fact that they are far pitiful compared to other families who are skilled and excellent in the art of scheming and plottings.
And it might all be because the Su and Shao Family has so far belonged in a generation of having less trouble and scheming within the family problem that has now caused them to be a bit in dilemma with all these people wanting to see them crumble and fall so miserably.
"By the way… Mother, there is also one important matter that I wanted to discuss with you regarding Brother Cheng."
"Is it because of Ren Yuan? Chonglin, we know how much you love Little Cheng, however, regarding that certain part of his life, that is something that you can't go against just because you dislike the other person."

"Yes, Chonglin, you might not like Ren Yuan but it completely different from Little Cheng, that man will become your brother in law. Believe in us, we can see that Little Cheng will one day take that young man home. Frankly, after seeing our son's way of dealing Yuan in that carriage situation, we are now completely sure that our Cheng will more likely the husband than the bride."
Mother, what are you guys speaking about? Wait, that has been what you two have been thinking the whole time? … so Little Cheng will be the husband of his relationship with Ren Yuan rather than being the wife? … well, I feel utter relief knowing that now… wait…!
"Mothers! It's not concerning about that matter! I mean, there is something wrong with Mei! Do you know what has been happening lately after Little Cheng has just arrived home?"
"Eh? Mei? What is wrong with her? From what we can see so far, she has been showing such an excellent and outstanding talent in perfectly fulfilling her job."
Although, Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei kindly state regarding bout what they really thought about the young woman that has grown up in the Shao residence at a young age, however, they still felt a bit of skeptic inside them when they remember the strange expression on Mei's face during in the dining hall after seeing Shao Cheng home.
And Shao Chonglin was able to perceive the doubt that his Mothers felt has finally recount what has been going on the whole time causing Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei to erupt in anger since as a woman themselves, they were able to quickly figure out what is going on in Mei's head relating toward their Third son.
"...! Such a thing! How could that girl think such an idea to our Little Cheng? It would have been alright if she only felt affections since we can't do anything to stop it, but for her to act and think that way is fully unacceptable!"
"Ah, my poor son! For it to happen to him…and even knowing it but never mentioning it to us... All this time… how long did he carry all the trouble all to himself?"
Su Yanmei that was unable to stop the imagination in her mind couldn't help but sway sideways causing Su Chunhua to quickly steady her younger sister while Chonglin has also rushed over to help his Mother sit down in the chair.
"This wouldn't do! We have to quickly take care of it! What would we do if Little Cheng leaves to wander outside again because he can't handle Mei's actions anymore? I would not allow that to happen! Especially when it's going to be a new year soon! Its been a while since our whole family manages to stay together in one place while celebrating such happy events!"
"M-Mother Yanmei! Calm down, please watch over your health!"
Su Yanmei appeared to have elegant and calmness when interacting with her, however, when it's regarding Shao Cheng's situation and well being, it was a completely different matter, so her reactions weren't a surprise to Chunhua and Chonglin one bit.
However, before everything can turn chaotic, a sudden loud sound of howling has abruptly resounded out causing the three of them to halt in their actions before snapping their entire attention to a certain direction with surprised wide eyes.

"That sound…"
Only one person has an animal that can make that sound in the entire Shao Residence, although unusually loud for a wolf cub to even let out however they already disregarded that fact as all of them have rushed over to where the noise is coming from.
"Let go of me! Damn it… I said let go of me you stupid wolf! Even these rabbits are completely strange and irritating!"
"Wooo!"
Shortly after, Shao Chonglin that has appeared has quietly let the hidden guard that has arrived first while watching in the shadow to just stay put while Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei have quickly glared in outrage.
Soon, all of them watch as Mei was being overwhelmed by the surprising wild white rabbits that were jumping all around her body in a nonstop motion while the wolf cub was bitting and ripping her clothes at the same time in order to keep her struggling form from running away and probably hurting them too.
Although, the two of them still felt that the situation is a bit strange, after all, although not skilled but Mei knew martial arts after being trained with the Shao children, so for these animals to be able to keep her in the ground was marvelous situation itself.
"Ahhh! Young Master Chonglin! Madams! Please help me! These pets have suddenly attacked me for no reason!"
Mei that was able to finally see the appearance of the Shao family couldn't help but asked for help, completely forgetting the fact of how suspicious of her to be in the Third Son of the Shao Family sleeping quarter so late at night while she was supposed to be already resting to her room.
"Mei… later, you got an explanation to do…"
"...!"
Shao Chonglin didn't give any chance for the young woman to speak any denial and refusal before waving his hand, causing some of the hidden guards to quickly appear and capture the struggling Mei that has shown a paler face after seeing their appearance.
After all, it was well known that Shao Cheng dislikes having hidden guards around his place, although it is true since they are unable to do anything about the stubbornness of the young man, however, there are still guard place just outside Shao Cheng detecting range in case something bad truly happened.
Although they still needed to be stricter this time regarding their protection inside the Residence people since Mei was still able to hide her actions for a long time now, this wouldn't do, right now, Chonglin is finally learning how unsafe they are to their enemies even inside their Residence.
Shortly, Mei was finally taken away in which the three of them soon couldn't help but eyed the groups of white rabbits that have suddenly become docile before jumping and running back to the entrance of Shao Cheng room.
While the wolf cub that appeared lazy and a sloth before have surprisingly watched them with rather sharp and fierce eyesight that spoke of bloodthirst before finally deeming them harmless after a few seconds of observation and going back toward the white rabbits that have completely surrounded his body as soon as he lay down.
Chonglin, Chunhua, and Yanmei were finally seeing Shao Cheng pets with clear eyes for the first time ever and will never be able to see them the same way again after witnessing how they deal with the trespasser.
Didn't Little Cheng promise to give or share them with his animals later on? Honestly, they want one now!
"Little Cheng?"
After a few seconds, Chunhua and Yanmei finally seemed to perceive how silent the entire place was, especially when there wasn't any reaction shown from their son after what happened to the point that they are planning to knock in their son door to see of what is going on.
However, Chen Yu that has been sleeping seemed to detect it and has once more made a noise before standing up and entering the small door specially made for the wolf cub to enter inside Shao Cheng's room after giving them a pointed look to stay put.
During this time, everyone has disregard how human-like the wolf cub was acting since all they can think about was why Shao Cheng wasn't making a sound or even showing up, however, their doubt has quickly disappeared when candlelight was suddenly lit inside their son room that showed his figure of a walking out from the inner chamber.
Before bending down to give a paper to the small figure in the ground after arriving in the outer chamber of his bedroom.
After a while, Chen Yu that has his tail in a wagging motion has finally appeared before Chonglin, Chunhua, and Yanmei and quickly showing the written paper only in the distance, which was only written as "I'm fine." before quickly laying down in the entrances once more along with the now crumble paper.
As they glance at each other, the three of them stared at the silhouette in the bedroom that has nodded his head toward them before blowing the candlelight off and returning back to his inner chamber to continue sleeping.
"... come on, let's go. We will give Little Cheng his peace and we will just talk about this tomorrow morning."
Soon the three of them have left with various thoughts in their mind and after a while, Chen Yu has slowly opened his eyes to peak if anyone was still outside before abruptly rushing inside and jumping in the arm of the figure that has been sitting silently in the bed.
"Little Chen Yu, did you miss me? I miss you too! Little Cheng is so cruel to take you away from me~"
Ren Yuan that has secretly sneak inside the Shao Family and directly went straight into Shao Cheng place can only massage his forehead at the situation he finds himself with while gently wanting to get some comfort at the warm body in his arms.
"Sigh… where did he run off again? I almost got caught!"
