The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

Chapter 81: The Well Known Hollow Young Master. Shao Cheng Devastingly Destructive Side.

"Third Brother H-How does it taste?"

Shao Cheng place the spoon down while gently wiping his lip and remaining silent the entire time, his face permanently in the cold and indifferent expression from start to finish before gazing at his expectant older brother that for some reason was fidgeting on his chair despite the bright grin on his face.

How should he say it the soup tasted bland the meat was a little bit burnt with too much salt place on it It was easy to tell that it was Shao Yan that has cooked the food, rather than the one who usually does the job.

And as he secretly glances at the person that was peeking from the door, that man is also his brother right-hand man which Shao Cheng can remember in the previous life of who has become the General after his brother tragedy.

From the little bit that he remembers that happened, his older brother was betrayed by his people, which could mean anyone from the group of people that were staying with them at the moment is a traitor that will soon make his move since Shao Cheng was here to save Shao Yan after all.

Although, there is less chance that the plan might change in which Shao Cheng believes that he might have only made the person slightly wary, after all, what can a young man do that was well known for his loathing in anything related to fighting while drifting apart from one place to another without a proper knowledge which he was supposed to have been thought at a young age?

Nevertheless, that man peeking from outside the door that has raised raise on his rank and become what his brother could have been was the most suspicious of all, which is named Yu Qin, a person with merchant parent and was orphan early on that has somehow become friends with his older brother during their younger year.

But for now, Shao Cheng turned his attention back at the expectant Shao Yan that has suddenly become down, probably because he was taking too long from replying back and wondering if Shao Cheng was going to speak to him once again.

Such a sensitive older brother, though it might be because it was all about him, for having a Letiunant rank, there is no way that Shao Yan has low self-esteem.

Nevertheless, Shao Cheng can somehow see an imaginary dog-ear on top of his older brother head which has turned down from his sadness, although he couldn't help but give a stink eye to the snickering Purple that seemed to found some fun on the torment that he was currently giving to his older brother, it was not like he meant to do it alright?

Damn Purple seemed to have a sadistic tendency...

That thought cause Shao Cheng back to feel a great chill while secretly hoping that it wasn't true at all since he was the one getting those not wonderful sides of the purple dragon later on...

Anyway, back to his older brother since he wanted to be a nice younger brother then Shao Cheng needed to treat the current situation to the best of his ability in a careful manner.

"It's awful bland and salty"

They said that honesty is the best policy, Shao Cheng won't lie to his family as long as the situation doesn't need him to or wouldn't cause him trouble and problem.

Although, the entertainment he inwardly feels from seeing his older brother's reaction was amusing at best, Shao Cheng won't deny the fact that he kind of like teasing and bullying people once in a while, it was good stress relief in the previous life.

"You at least, don't speak like that ok? Yan has done his best to make the food you ate, at least be nice alright?"

Suddenly, Shao Yan right-hand man, Yu Qin entered the door with his eyes flashing in anger and something more profound as he gazes between the two people inside the room, while a painful quick understanding was given to his close friend and leader.

While in Shao Chang's mind flash of theories emerged continually after hearing the rather painful emotion in the man voice which was older than Shao Yan and seemed to have a certain bad past base from his reaction alone.

In which cause Shao Cheng to also think deeply since this person was reacting a bit over the top and extremely concern about Shao Yan's mental and emotional issues.

"You don't give him false expectations it's going to hurt him more deeply"

Has inside information about some of the problems in their Shao Family too

"Q-Qing, come here! Don't make the situation turned awkward and uncomfortable than it is already!"

Suddenly another person has also entered inside, which was a person named Gao with no last name which was common to normal people to have, and Shao Cheng recognized this person a bit since he has heard his older brother mentioning the young man's name when he was being ushered inside the room.

And Gao was also the next person ranking before Yu Qin in Shao Yan group of people and was the left-hand man from what he observed so far, in which Shao Cheng couldn't remember from his previous life, probably died during the attack to his older brother.

"You two go out."

Suddenly the silent Shao Yan the entire time has ordered his friends with a hard voice while wearing a grimacing expression as he warily and carefully eyes the reaction of his third brother, inwardly worried and fearful that he would suddenly leave while avoiding any more further interaction from him.

Basically Shao Yan was ready and prepared for Shao Cheng to suddenly leave the entire Village and continue his travel.

However, from the start to the present, Shao Cheng expression didn't so much as twitch despite being shouted from anger, nor was no change on his expression and Shao Yan doesn't know if he should feel relieved or disappointed that his brother seemed to be the same despite speaking to him for the first time.

Even his Third Brother didn't bother to glance at his friend's sudden entrance, those cold sapphire eyes remained staring at his figure which still makes him happy because Shao Cheng is truly gazing at him, it isn't the disregarding manner anymore.

At least, it was a change, no matter how little or large it is, Shao Yan and his entire family will cry in happiness at the sudden good developments.

"Speak up? Me?"

Shao Yan's eyes blink in shock with a bit of hope when he heard his brother speaking again, and seemed to be reacting to the words of his friend and to his emerging excitement, he saw the way those cold and indifferent sapphire eyes flash a slight confuse emotion within it.

It was no longer dead emotionless and indifferent that causes Shao Yan's breath to slow down, his heart beating faster than ever as all his entire being is being filled with hope, expecting that everything is finally going to turn out alright for their family.

That they can become whole once again it didn't feel right after what happened to his Third Brother and right now, he wished with all his heart that everything will turn out good.

This is simply a miracle in which Shao Yan couldn't help but tear up once more, it doesn't matter how unmanly he looks right now, damn their opinion, because he is crying from happiness, it wasn't anything to be ashamed of.

"Do you want me to say that it tastes good? Why?"

Shao Yan that has his mouth open wide felt bewildered, while Yu Qin that has been angry the entire time couldn't help but be astonished at the sudden confused question and causing him to turned speechless since he doesn't know how to answer since what he said before was all true, while Gao that has been trying to pull his friend to go out flash a surprise and amaze expression.

Every one of them that was close to Shao Yan knew the famous young master of the Shao Family, being favored and loved by all of them yet only remaining cold and indifferent the entire time no matter what they all do, a completely hearthless young man.

Rather than the name Shao Cheng, this young man was being called the hollow young master because nothing can just touch him, so empty, dull and cold without any care to anyone around him.

"A-ah no Third Brother is right! I-Its Big Brother fault for cooking something bad! Of course, it doesn't taste good! You're just speaking the truth is all! Don't worry, I'll do great next time alright?"

With a shaky smile, Shao Yan's dark blue eyes shine brightly and it wasn't the tears upon it.

Shao Cheng that has been watching the entire time couldn't help but inwardly sigh, Shao Yan present reaction doesn't give him any amusement, rather it was a heartbreaking one, this kind of heavy love and great favor he will recieve from his family from now on will always cause him to inwardly feel remorse, guilt, and shame.

Although there is the warmth in his heart, nevertheless, Shao Cheng wouldn't be able to fully embrace it.

Because he acknowledged that although another chance was given to him, a new life once more, yet what he has performed in the previous life was something that he couldn't disregard because everything has truly happened, future or would be future, Shao Cheng wholly remembers the sin he committed.

Shao Cheng, who trampled over, ruthlessly throwing away and disregarding the Shao Family was something that he has experienced, just like the numerous blood of the people he has taken away that will never be removed and the lives that he has broken apart, manipulated and just causing misery to other that will forever remain deep within him.

Nevertheless, Shao Cheng will face it all, it was the least he could do to the people that deserve something better from him.

"... But thank you for the food"

Then Shao Cheng that still has cold expression has somehow swift into something much softer although it still looks cold before his lip twitches into a small smile seemingly unaccustomed from the actions before it turned back to normal just as quickly it appeared.

However, in that split second of showing such a miraculous rarity of expression from the well known Hollow Young Master, the effect of Shao Cheng smile was devastatingly destructive as the three men that we're able to catch a glimpse of it has become a bumbling fool from the dazzling beauty they just saw.

"Um"

"Eh"

"Oh"
