The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time Chapter 177
Advertisement
"Honestly, Little Cheng, you are so careless, what will happen if you accidentally fall in the icy cold lake just now? I really couldn't remove my eyes away from you for even a single second since you are really inclined to face trouble all the time."
Shao Cheng that has been carefully placed down in the ground has taken a glance at the surrounding of his Twin Mother's place which is another wide space of the courtyard, definitely the place where his Mother Chunhua trained her martial arts, before turning his attention at the worried Ren Yuan with the normal cold expression.
Effectively hiding the chaotic thoughts and swirling emotions he felt inside after considering the mere thought of facing such a heavy and complicated feeling called love.
If it was another person that was showing their romantic emotion toward him, Shao Cheng wouldn't feel anything other than decisively rejecting them in order to stop it from going out of control, however, regarding Ren Yuan is an entirely different manner, especially when it was far complicated than anyone else in his opinion.
Shao Cheng has witnessed the burning passion and love this person showed in the previous life, there is no denying the fact that he was also touched by such overwhelming dedication especially after staying by Ren Yuan's side until they finally got separated after his death.
So, at the start, it was still alright and there wasn't anything Shao Cheng can do after learning and witnessing Ren Yuan confessed his secret hidden affection toward him and just turning silent about it while fulfilling the commitment he was only capable to promise when staying by his side as a spirit.
However, when Shao Cheng was facing the problem and reality of the whole situation, his death is no longer causing him to completely ignored it and just tucking such an impossible future about them in the corner of his mind.
It was understandable that he has quickly felt the flustered and panic emotion that has almost overwhelm him inside.
And Shao Cheng still felt it when facing the man standing before him, which was completely hidden behind the mask he has learned and become familiar with in order to conceal what he truly felt inside.
"I'll be careful next time… Brother Yuan, let's drink the wine in my place, I'll share it."
Shao Cheng has quickly stop Ren Yuan's further words and offering the wine jar that he didn't forget to bring despite leaving the dinner hall in a hurry along with a chaotic mind since he already has the idea of drinking the problem away for now, although he won't get drunk by it.

Especially feeling a bit relieved now that Shao Cheng was still unable to see any romantic love in Ren Yuan eyes after trying to perceive any clue regarding it.
Or maybe Ren Yuan was hiding it from him? After all, Shao Cheng has never found out the man's romantic feelings in the previous life and would never know it if he didn't witness Ren Yuan spilling his woe during his drunken moment.
While Shao Cheng's mind was busy, Ren Yuan has tightly closed his mouth shut before pinching his nose in frustration while gazing at the young man that has quickly tried to evade the entire problem that happened a moment ago along with the strange situation in the dining hall just by tempting him with the delicious wine.
".... Little Cheng, that is a bad habit you got there...always keeping everything inside you…that is not a great method you know?"
Seeing that the young man didn't reply back while only showing the normal cold and indifferent expression on his face that Ren Yuan has already learned to never trust sometimes can only let out a loud sigh after a few moments of staring off.
This young man has already shown how great he was with hiding whatever he feels and thinks about by that cold expression on his face which showed about indifferent to everything and anything that is going on around him.
So, is this person that has been given the title of Hollow Young Master from the people in Chang Capital?
Damn, those people's eyes are definitely blind since from what Ren Yuan can see this person is just immeasurable regarding concealing whatever is going on within him.
Ren Yuan has let out a deep sigh one more time before quickly raising his hand to chaotically rub the young man's head causing that soft and silky hair to become disordered by his actions, which has easily quickly removed the irritating feelings that continue to plague his chest.
This young man has definitely comprehended that becoming obedient and letting him do whatever he wants will definitely lessen the bad feeling every time that he got snubs by him or when concealing some matters.
Just like that sissy young man's existence last night that continues to irritate Ren Yuan whenever he remembers the scene of Little Cheng holding another person so intimately close that cause him to feel that he wasn't special any longer.
Damn it, who is that sissy? The day is already going to end, but his people are taking too long investigating those dead people's identities in order to learn what really is happening and what kind of trouble did Little Cheng has once again got himself into.

"Argh! Be thankful Brother Yuan honestly like you Little Cheng! If its other people doing this to me, I have already turned around and permanently ignored them."
How many times did Ren Yuan felt bitter by the concealed and unexplained actions that the young man sometimes does?
Although he understands that there are just circumstances that lead a person to hide a secret because of their certain reasons but being left out isn't really a nice feeling, especially to a person you treat more special than others is definitely an uncomfortable affair.
However, Ren Yuan knows that he was just being selfish about it because base on the weight of what the young man has revealed, Ren Yuan didn't even reveal anything that he has kept hidden toward the young man.
Little Cheng has never asked him anything and Ren Yuan is undoubtfully a selfish person, always wanting to understand everything he could.
It is one of the reasons why he has built up an information network all around the place before he even found out the dangerous secret that his parents have kept hidden until he was ready to hear about it.
"...It's alright to ignore me once in a while."
As long as you don't turn your back on me or running away in my life then I can accept it.
"Hahaha, truly such a cheeky little brat!"
Ignored you? I think its too late! I don't even know the reason why it felt extremely uncomfortable just thinking about it. Little Cheng, don't try to make me leave you alone since I am now officially stuck to your life!
For a few seconds, Shao Cheng and Ren Yuan gaze each other with various thoughts in their mind with their mask easily hiding it before eventually deciding to walk away side by side without another word, completely knowing that they will go drink together in a private place.
"... Whitey… I can help... if you want me too alright? Let me assist you… I'm really worried that something bad will happen…*hic* look at the short time we met…*hic* so much trouble and danger have already occurred…ah…*hic* Whitey…*hic* Brother Yu Yu can be trusted…"
Soon, Shao Cheng was carrying a drunk Ren Yuan into his arms while he entered the open door of the carriage that Xing Ning has prepared outside the Shao Residence Gate to take the man home.
"Whitey! Are you… *hic*... listening to me? Brother Yu Yu can definitely help all your concerns and problem!"
Shao Cheng felt the weak insisted tug upon his robes after placing the man into the comfortable seat inside the carriage, and after gazing at Ren Yuan half-lidded grey pupils that shone with sincerity despite being blurred from drunkness, somehow causing the man exquisite features to become more charming than usual.
When Shao Cheng continues to feel the stubborn tug of his robes, he can only let out a sigh while gently patting Ren Yuan's head while carefully removing the warm hands gripping his white clothes.
"I know."
However, I don't want to give you any unnecessary burden, especially when I can easily do it.
"Um… so stubborn…*hic*...then don't come crying *hic* to brother Yu Yu… and make sure… to finish it well…"
Shao Cheng has finally straightened his bent back while gently shaking his head while taking out a soft blanket hidden in the compartment inside the carriage and gently covering the sleepy Ren Yuan that was trying to show a serious expression while teaching about how to properly deal a problem in a right way.
However, to Shao Cheng's eyes, the man's serious expression somehow is looking far adorable instead, especially with that red cheeks along with such exquisite features that make him want to squeeze it in a teasing manner.
"..."
Shao Cheng lip couldn't help but twitch when that dangerous thought emerges on his mind before quickly giving one last glance at the persistence drunk Ren Yuan despite how those grey pupil just wanted to close before finally walking out of the carriage and nodding his head to Xing Ning that appeared to have a resigned expression on his face.
Well from what he knows, the poor young man was overwork in the past few days and was now even becoming Ren Yuan nanny lately.
Soon, the carriage has finally driven off by Xing Ning and completely leaving the Shen Residence
And inside the carriage, the sleepy and drunk Ren Yuan has finally stop mumbling drunken words while staring in the ceiling with a clear grey pupil, unlike the blurred drunken appearance that Shao Cheng has seen before, although the red colors on his cheeks remain the same, proving that the wine has affected him in some way.
".. really stubborn…"
