"... Xing Ning! Let's change our hideout!"

Ren Yuan doesn't believe in evil, so despite the shade of pink that remain on his white cheeks after remembering the embarrassment in the past, he has decisively chosen to change the place of hiding with a stubborn expression on his face.

While Xing Ning in the distance can only roll his eyes while obediently following his friend's order and looking for another hideout to stay without expressing his own opinion after all he knows that his friend is acting out again.

However, there is one thought that remains in Xing Ning's mind, those two people have finally decided to combine forces in creating troublesome antics without caring about the stress that they are giving to other people.

While the two of them are busy in the process of changing place, Purple floating in the air can only shake his head with a sympathetic expression on his beast face while giving a compassionate look to his pitiful creator who remains oblivious at the wicked man plot.

After all, no matter where Ren Yuan runs away from in order to hide, as long as Purple is by his side, the wicked man will always know the direction of where Ren Yuan is hiding base by the connection that Purple has with Shao Cheng.

However, Purple couldn't help but also shoot a gloating expression to his creator stubbornness while having an expression of 'I don't believe that Whitey will be able to find me again!'.

My dear creator even if I refuse to help the wicked man on letting him know where you are hiding, that human is sly, wickedly clever, extremely tricky, and have different ways to hunt you down, so don't blame me for choosing to side on him this time.

Of course, being seduced by the wicked man delicious food is also one of the reasons, so I'm sure that his creator would be understanding regarding his plight of which side to choose from, after all, even his creator's stomach has long been conquered without knowing about it.

… well, this is also for his creator future happiness… so its a win and win situation.

And with that thought in mind, Purple has quickly thrown away all the sympathy he felt before finally laying down on top of the man's head when they are about to leave the hideout.

For food! And his creator early love life! Purple would work hard!

So for the following night, no matter how many times Ren Yuan change his hideout, without missing a day, an eye-catching pink rabbit will always appear in the middle of the night, knocking on the entrance of where Ren Yuan is staying with a gift box on his small body.

And what made Ren Yuan extremely frustrated about the entire situation are all because of the letter that always follows, although the first few sentences are written were always worrying about his well-being but the obvious threat written at the end will always cause Ren Yuan to feel an unknown danger, which isn't about his life, along with the familiar flush appearing on his cheeks.

Nonetheless, Xing Ning was secretly watching the entire situation while knowing what was written in the letter because of a certain someone's confusing actions can only roll his eyes.

Especially after watching Ren Yuan carefully folding the supposedly threatening letter and placing it inside his clothes in a careful manner despite the nonstop complaint and protest being utter out from his mouth.

Of course, those following days of antics regarding Ren Yuan and Shao Cheng will happen later on.

For now, Shao Cheng that has continue to quietly and covertly run throughout the Chang Capital in the middle of the night has finally arrived at the destination he has in mind, which was a huge residence belonging to an honorable military aristocrat family.

After stopping a few distances away in the outside while expertly staying hidden in the dark, Shao Cheng sapphire eyes flicker to the Surname written of the front gate of the huge residence before quickly detecting the tight and strict people that has been arranged to guards and patrol the entire place.

Even Shao Cheng couldn't help but inwardly nod his head in appreciation after viewing the entire layout design of protection in the entire residence, even Shao Cheng would have trouble infiltrating inside despite having the previous life skills and experience after seeing it.

Nonetheless, Shao Cheng knows and was quite familiar with the layout of the entire residence, which makes the entire situation of sneaking in far easier.

And so, he has bravely gone inside without any hesitation and uncertainty before finally arriving on a certain courtyard after swiftly evading the guards patrolling the place.

Although different from the way Shao Cheng has sneak inside the Ren Residence, as soon as his feet have landed in the ground and completely showing his entire figure, he calmly raises his hand and showing a black token on his palm causing the suddenly dangerous atmosphere where the hidden guards were about to attack him to abruptly pause.

After making sure that the hidden guard spike of murderous intention in the air has completely disappeared, Shao Cheng tilted his head toward the direction of where the most vigorous and thick internal energy among the group of hidden guards in the dark he has senses, which was the leader of the entire group place to protect the person staying in this courtyard.

"... I'm here to discuss something important and doesn't want to let anyone else know about my sudden visit."

Shao Cheng recognized that his sudden sneak in tonight will be reported to Su Enlai, although he could hide what he wanted to do but for the preparation of the future disturbance, having his Uncle in the knows of the entire situation is for the best.

Besides, among the family and relatives close to the Shao Family, the Su family which his Twin Mother Older Brother lead was one of the few people that have stayed true and loyal to their side.

Even when the Shao Family started to deteriorate in a severe state, the Su Family didn't shy away from danger even when knowing in the previous life that the reason why Xixi has died was all because of his order of protecting Huang Ya life as the greatest priority didn't change their feelings toward the other member of the Shao Family.

Although, Shao Cheng has received Su Enlai's complicated and difficult gaze while having his wife hatred didn't affect their decision on helping the Shao Family troubles, and all of this previous life experience has already cause Shao Cheng to add the Su Family in the list of excellent allies.

After all, Shao Cheng couldn't hide his actions for the rest of his life, nor could he conceal his movements and activities, even the fact that he got a rebellious mind wouldn't remain a secret.

And what Shao Cheng need for future involvement in the fight for the throne of the Chang Empire are power, influence, luck, and also a great chance.

And the Su and Shao Family are the most perfect choice in Shao Cheng's situation, the military power and influence in their hands would be an excellent piece of force against the Royal Family.

In a world lead by a sovereign, an individual having great military control in their hands are always what the Royal Family feared the most, it doesn't matter if the person is righteous or just plain ambitious.

Of course, the present Emperor in this generation is a bit an open-minded monarch despite being a romantic person without a proper ability to lead the Country in a better government, the Emperor is still smart enough to never target the genuine loyal ministers that stayed true in his reign.

Nevertheless, what makes Shao Cheng wary and alerted the most in the entire Royal family are the Emperor wives and children that are full of greed and ambition, before being followed by the aristocrat families backing them up.

Those are the leading people that would target his families and relatives, finding the power and influence they hold offensive and a threat in their path of power.

And for the problem regarding the faith and loyalty of the Su and Shao Family, Shao Cheng has already decided to let them be entangled in the net he would weave, they wouldn't be able to escape, nor can they have another path to choose aside from helping him fight for the throne.

The Su and Shao families can only survive if they choose to fight.

However, if the two families choose to remain loyal and preferred to die by the hands of the Royal Family because of their faith and belief, then there is nothing Shao Cheng could do but let them be after being unable to change their decision.

Shao Cheng would have already done his best to give them a different ending in the previous life, so the conclusion they choose would be their responsibility to shoulder.

In this new life, while Shao Cheng is correcting the mistake, blunder, and error of the way he treated his family in the previous life but it doesn't mean that he can throw away the sole decision and important priority because of their sakes.

Yes, Shao Cheng is really a cold-hearted, vicious, and heartless person, however, he doesn't deny the change that this world has created him out to be.

Even if he isn't scared of dying but it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to continue living and would just throw his life away, he is a survivor of this world and doesn't plan to easily surrender his life.

Besides, Shao Cheng has no other choice, either Ren Yuan or himself could only be the next Emperor of the Chang Empire.

Failing meant that Shao Cheng would die and would be permanently the Chang spirit captive without being able to reincarnate.

And Shao Cheng doesn't really mind what his ending would be, however, he doesn't want Ren Yuan to have a miserable life because of his failure.

Shao Cheng still understand the consequences of having a rebellious thought while even actively performing it, if he loses, wouldn't Ren Yuan experience hardship? There are still deep secrets that he doesn't know about Ren Yuan and Shao Cheng fear that those would lead the man endless trouble.

So, he needed to be prepared and hardheaded to everything with Ren Yuan's safety in mind.

While those deep and worrying thoughts continue to flash in Shao Cheng mind, he couldn't help but inwardly sigh before pulling down the clothe mask on his face and silently walking to the lit-up study room where he detected Xixi presence is while also noting the way that one of the hidden guards has disappear on his senses.

Shao Cheng Uncle, Su Enlai is a General in the Military Rank and a person who is extremely loyal to the people he regards as a family is truly a great ally to have besides in the Shao Family, aside from his Father, Grandfather, and two Older Brother, he wanted the rest to remain oblivious about the whole situation of their families circumstances.

Of course, Shao Cheng's unforgivable actions would need to remain a tight secret while giving his family a different view that his actions are all for the sake of their well-being and safety, which is definitely true.

It just that they would never know that he has planned it all for the sake of making Ren Yuan the Emperor and having a notion that he was only force in the end because of the Royal Family heartlessness.

Honestly, all these wicked and calculated schemes in Shao Cheng's mind are all a villainous move, nevertheless, he isn't a protagonist in some story, nor the righteous act wouldn't work out regarding his situation.

Shao Cheng can only walk the path of the wicked and ruthless to get the desired result he wanted.

".... Hehehe… this is good…so hot... my sisters would definitely love to see this…"

Somehow, after opening the door of the study room, Shao Cheng's eyes couldn't help but twitch up while suddenly feeling a bad premonition as soon as he took a step inside, especially when the woman standing among the scattered scroll in the ground and desk appeared oblivious on his appearance.

".... damn, I am getting better at this! Another one to my collections! Hehehe..."

And when Shao Cheng has gotten closer, a blue vein instantly appears on his forehead while his cold and indifferent expression has easily twisted darkly when his eyes have swept over the painting that the woman has been drooling over the entire time.

"The title for this one will be, 'The Cold Young Master Embracing The Unruly Prime Minister Son'."

Fuck!

So this is the reason why you have been quiet and calm in the past few days!

"Sister Xixi!"

And Su Enlai that has only arrive at his daughter courtyard was just in time to hear a repress angry sound of a young man echoing out in a certain study room, completely causing a confused and surprise expression to appear on his face.

What did his daughter do now to even cause his nephew that has just started to open up to suddenly express such a strong emotion?
