Chapter 31: You Might Not Know It, But Ren Yuan, You Have Become My Solace In This Life.
The loud sound of cold wind blowing strongly along with some snows falling at the entrance of the cave reaches the deepest part to the ears of the only person awake on it.
It was the snowstorm that was currently happening which is extremely powerful and dangerous just from the sound of it and is currently causing a certain person that has been anxiously waiting for a quite while now to become frantic and worried about a certain someone's safety.
Feeling hatred and despise about his own current weakness and hopeless status, Ren Yuan tried hard to move his body while fighting hard to keep himself awake from the sleepiness that he has been feeling the entire time now.
"Damn it Move Move."
He needs to move right noweven though it was useless in the end, but he couldn't stop the certain panic and fluster emotion rising within him as time continues to pass by since all he can think of is the fact that the young man might be in great danger right now much less having the possibility of dying already.
He just became an acquaintance of the younger man for quite a few days and not even a month yet, but it felt like he can't just remove Whitey from his life anymore, much less forget all about regarding him.
"Urghso bothersome..." Whitey felt like a sticky object that couldn't be removed no matter how much he tried hard to get him off from himself yeah, that was what Whitey has become to him, especially when he remembers the situation of almost killing and accidentally injuring him which causes the stickiness to become glued more.
As time continue to become longer while waiting for him to come back, Ren Yuan is already feeling extremely tired but despite it all, he tried to open his eyes wider even though the heaviness sets in as all he wanted was to go sleep right now, especially when he can still feel the coldness despite being surrounded by the thick fur and warm heat of the large white bear that Whitey has place him against with.
"... damn you sure got it good"
In the corner of his eyes, Ren Yuan that saw his friend that isn't in any great danger of losing his life anymore couldn't help but felt a bit envious at Xing Ning obliviousness about their current situation right now, without worry and concern as he slept peacefully against the two children white bears before his attention was grabbed over when the sound of footsteps along with a familiar voice has suddenly echoed out at the quiet and cold deep cave.
"Big Brother Yu Yu, I'm back. Where you scared? It's alright, I am here now."
Ren Yuan that has a good view of the direction at the entrance of the cave saw a small and thin figure of a young man in a white robe that currently has his long black hair messy from the snowstorm along with a bit of snows on it while also appearing to be also carrying two small furry animal that are sluggishly moving around slowly as they hang on his hand.
With a bit of a joking mood inside, Shao Cheng suddenly saw the way that Ren Yuan was gazing at his direction with his eyes trying to open wide desperately while wearing a hopeful and anxious expression on his face which has cause Shao Cheng to feel a bit touch as his heart warmth over at what he has just observer causing his pale lip to rose up as a sincere smile once again appeared on his beautiful face.
Quite frankly, Shao Cheng has been exposing those smiles lately which seemed to only happen when it comes to certain someone's reactions and actions toward him.
And with a smile still retain on his beautiful face, Shao Cheng has raised the two small snow-white mystical foxes on his hand with an expression that appeared to be asking to be praised and appreciated.
"Big Brother Yu Yu, do you see I got you a mystical snow fox, didn't you come here to the Snow Mountain just to catch this one? One for you to take home, while I will cook the other one to make you feel better quickly. And no need to worry, I am quite a good chef, so I will definitely cook delicious food for you to eat."
Hearing a bit of the boastful lively tone of the younger man, Ren Yuan has finally let out a deep breath of relief before rolling his peach blossom grey eyes the next second at the words of Whitey before finally letting himself relax as the sleepiness take over his consciousness which he didn't stop anymore since Ren Yuan was quite sure that Whitey will no longer go out for now during the snowstorm is happening.
So without worry plaguing his mind, Ren Yuan has quickly fallen asleep which causes Shao Cheng that has been waiting to at least recieve some kind of recognition that has caused the smiles to disappeared from his face, becoming expressionless once more.
"..."
The warm emotion Shao Cheng has been feeling has swiftly flown away as he blankly stares at the ungrateful grown man that was currently unconscious before his very eyes.
After staying silent, a deep sigh of weakness was let out his lip since Shao Cheng could tell that Ren Yuan has been feeling extremely tired the entire time and was just being obstinate and stubborn while making difficulty for himself in order to wait for his arrival base from what he has just observed a moment ago.
With a hopeless smile, while staring at the oblivious to the world Ren Yuan, Shao Cheng has caused the two mystical snow fox on his hands to fall unconscious, before working to start a fire despite the coldness inside the cave and at the outside world out there.
Although it will be a totally hard thing to accomplish, however, the energies can be used in a rather multi-purpose way though, especially with the purple energies that he was just starting to begin knowing about more of its uses.
"Urgh this world somehow becoming a fantasy one"
After lighting up a fire with a hard struggle, Shao Cheng has finally begun to properly treat his injuries and after finishing dealing with it, he quickly put on his white robes back even though there was still a blood on it but there was nothing he could do at their current situation since there was nothing to change from.
Deciding to finally take a rest, Shao Cheng started to walk over to the father white bear to sleep with but only to find himself stopping on his steps when he caught a glimpse of the slightly shivering Ren Yuan in the corner of his eyes.
"..."
Eh, after staying silent for a bit, Shao Cheng decided that Ren Yuan won't die from it so with that in mind, Shao Cheng turns his attention back to the papa bear that he was going to sleep with to keep himself warm and comfy.
Yet despite what he just thought, Shao Cheng finds himself standing right before Ren Yuan with a troubled look on his face.
"...Do I also need to sacrifice my body?"
He is already going to become his faithful follower, so now his body requires to be used too?
With that weird and strange thought, Shao Cheng quickly shook his head before letting out another sigh on his lip.
"Aren't you lucky? I have never done this to anyone..." in the previous life
Even to Chang Pei and Huang Ya, he never really did any intimate actions with the use of his physical body when interacting with them.
So with that in mind, Shao Cheng can only go over to the shivering Ren Yuan as he takes the older man on his arms, although he was more of leaning his entire body toward him, along with his face into the grown man wider chest while his thin arms are wrapped around the person back, after all, Shao Cheng figure now is a small and thin young man, unlike the past where he was tall with a good fit figure and couldn't make Ren Yuan lean toward him which is the current opposite of what he is doing right now.
"...there is no other meaning about this"
With that last murmured words, Shao Cheng felt the body against his becoming more warmer which has soon caused him to fall asleep surprisingly fast since all he felt is great comfort, relief, and ease while holding his unconscious former greatest enemies that will become his closest friend and future monarch later on.
Feeling a bit in a denial, Shao Cheng can no longer refuse to accept the fact that Ren Yuan seemed to have become his solace in this new life.
He won't let him gonot in this life...
