    Chapter 47 Deliberate Liu Yuan: (Leave me alone.jpg)…

    In the twelfth year of Tianbao, he ran away from home and was caught by Xie Donghai. He pretended to be unconscious but was actually knocked unconscious for a whole day and night without returning. He had to accept the interrogation of a certain Penglai elder alone in a not-so-spacious inn room.The candles lit on the table seemed to be dimmer than usual. Under the hazy light, Xie Donghai’s beautiful face seemed to be even more mysterious, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.

    The young swordsman sitting directly opposite Xie Donghai had a blank mind at this time – explanation?What excuse can he use to explain why he suddenly returned to Penglai two years ago because of a strange dream, sneaked into the “night attack” while his brother Xie was “asleep”, and then sneaked back to Dao Zong and even ran to the Central Plains like a thief with a guilty conscience?

    Yan Bugui’s eyes fell involuntarily on the lips of the person in front of him. Their color was a bit light. In addition, Xie Donghai was usually cold and cold, and his voice also had a unique coldness. Even if it was not to the point of “the whole person seemed to be shaped by mountain ice and snow”, it was otherworldly, like an ethereal ice spring, with a kind of coldness that could repel people thousands of miles away.

    It’s not that he has never touched other parts of Xie Donghai’s body before. At least he can be sure that the other person’s hands are as cool as the clothes the other person is wearing. However, compared to the smooth and soft clothes, his brother Xie’s hands are as hard as jade.But when I think back to that night’s touch, it was unexpectedly soft and warm…

    “What are you thinking about? Your face is red, huh?”

    Xie Donghai’s voice rang in his ears. Yan Bugui blinked and blinked again, but he “boldly” asked without answering: “Brother, have you ever thought about marrying a wife?”

    Xie Donghai smiled “ha”, and glanced up and down the young swordsman’s body with unclear meaning. He did not give a definite “yes” or “no”, but asked indifferently: “What, are you going to recommend yourself?”

    Yan Bugui guessed that Xie Donghai would not follow the routine, but he did not expect to get such a response. However, after the words were spoken, he was not shy and continued to ask according to the original plan: “I am very curious about what kind of person you like – a woman or a man? Is it gentle or unruly? Is he careless or deep-minded? Is he taciturn or unrestrained?”

    Xie Donghai propped his elbows on the table, put a clenched fist against one of his cheeks, and asked again with great interest: “What if I say I don’t like humans?”

    Yan Bugui replied calmly: “That means you do have something that you particularly like?”

    Xie Donghai nodded obediently: “I like Penglai Island, the big whale in the Xuhai Sea, and many ‘things’… Are you satisfied with my answer? So, what answer do you owe me?”

    “But…” Yan Bugui leaned his upper body forward and approached Xie Donghai, “You actually didn’t answer me, whether you will ‘fall in love’ with someone – well, ‘something’. What I’m talking about is love, the kind that means we can become husband and wife, and we can spend the night together.”

    “Xiao Yan -” Xie Donghai protracted his tone and did not continue to circle around Yan Bugui. There seemed to be a little boredom in his eyes, “You seem to have learned bad things in the sword sect these years. I am very sad.”

    When Yan Bugui heard Xie Donghai’s “I don’t want to worry about you anymore” tone, he couldn’t help but feel panicked. He subconsciously wanted to explain, but he forcibly controlled the words when he reached his lips. The words he said became more “provocative” words: “Brother, since you were awake that night, of course you know what I did… Why don’t you tell me, how do you want to hear my ‘explanation’?”

    Xie Donghai saw that the enthusiasm on “Xiao Yan’s” face had gradually faded away, but some of it was still lingering on his ears. With his free hand, he suddenly pinched the young swordsman’s pink earlobes and watched with satisfaction as they turned redder.Feeling the temperature under his fingers, he asked with no emotion or anger on his face: “Oh? What kind of ‘explanation’ do you think I want to hear?”

    The slightly cool touch quickly spread to the whole body, but it provoked the opposite heat. Yan Bugui forcibly resisted the initial physical reaction of subconsciously trying to avoid or even fight back, and is still trying to keep himself calm.Unfortunately, the control was not perfect after all. His body still trembled slightly, revealing his uneasiness, and he suddenly blurted out:

    “Brother, I seem to really like you.”

    “I like you too. After all, you are my ‘brother’.” Xie Donghai looked indifferent, but the pronunciation of the word “brother” was a bit harsh.

    Regarding this, Yan Bugui took his brother Xie’s hand that had just pinched his earlobe and was about to take it back with both hands, put it to his lips, and pressed the corners of his lips to the back of his hand: “The love I am talking about is not the love between brothers, but the love between husband and wife.”

    Xie Donghai did not give any response immediately. There was still a faint smile on his lips, but under the dim candlelight, his eyes seemed to be filled with some unclear shadows.Yan Bugui raised his eyes and broke into the shadow without leaving an inch: “The fact that you didn’t reject my small gestures immediately proves that you are not completely unintentional towards me, right?”

    As soon as the young swordsman said these words, Xie Donghai immediately let out a sigh. The hand that Yan Bugui wanted to hold tightly but did not use too much force to wrap it escaped from the swordsman’s hold like water. Then Penglai’s elder suddenly stood up, lowered his head and looked down at Yan Bugui who raised his head reflexively, and said calmly:

    “Although you and I are called brothers, you and I both know that with the age difference between us, I am more than enough as your adoptive father; the world also understands that although we are called brothers, we are actually father and son – have you ever thought about how the world will view you and me if your words are spread?”

    Yan Bugui, who also wanted to stand up, but Xie Donghai pressed his shoulder with one hand to prevent him from moving, could only raise his head and replied seriously: “I know. But I -”

    “You know…” Xie Donghai suppressed his smile and intercepted what the swordsman was about to say first. At this time, his downward gaze carried an indescribable majesty, “You know but you don’t care – ha, have you ever thought about whether I would mind?”

    “I——”

    Yan Bugui wanted to explain again, but Xie Donghai once again interrupted his unspoken words: “You grew up next to me, and later I sent you to the Sword Sect to learn martial arts. You have never been exposed to things between men and women, so it is normal to have misjudgments for a while. I happen to have time, and I am here even if I don’t come to the Central Plains. I will simply help you understand what real ‘love’ is.”

    Listening to Xie Donghai’s words all the way, Yan Bugui originally had a lot of things in his heart that he wanted to say. When he was excited, he even wanted to break free from his brother Xie’s hand pressing his shoulders, but his past experience made him dare not do so easily.After listening and listening, at the end, he gradually calmed down and stopped moving. Instead, he suddenly said: “I will prove that I am not ignorant and ignorant.”

    In response, Xie Donghai replied noncommittally: “I’ll wait and see.”

    .

    Beijing, Tongfu Inn.

    Yan Bugui’s words, “I am the one who is planning all these things” made the fire in Liu Yuan’s heart that was gradually burning with his memories become even more intense. It did not have any cooling effect at all, and could even be considered as adding fuel to the fire.But the more angry Liu Yuan is, the more he can endure it – unless he can’t bear it at all, it will be a direct volcanic eruption.

    Ahem, in short, because the person opposite is Yanagisawa and his biological brother, he can still hold it in for now, and he also wants to know when Yan Bugui and Xie Donghai suddenly changed from brothers to this kind of relationship, so he still asked in a very calm tone: “Do you know when I appeared in the tree that day, and how long I watched you?”

    Yan Bugui was silent, he really didn’t know – he didn’t realize that his Brother Liu was nearby until Liu Yuan drew his sword and rushed towards Xie Donghai.With his keenness, this is completely impossible to happen, not to mention that Liu Yuan is a disciple of Ba Dao Villa. He has never been to the Tang Sect or the Ming Cult for further training, and he does not have such advanced stealth skills.

    Eliminating all possibilities, the only possibility was that Xie Donghai had done something to him and blocked his senses.Now that Liu Yuan specifically mentioned it, he could even guess that his two brothers might have made some moves in secret without his knowledge – but now he definitely couldn’t admit it, otherwise his brother Liu would definitely be even more angry with his brother Xie.

    At the same time, even if he wants to silently take over the blame for his brother Xie’s other half, he can’t lie and claim that he is fully informed, otherwise brother Liu will still be even more angry with his brother Xie, which will not help the matter.Therefore, he pondered for a moment and drafted his manuscript secretly before replying:

    “I actually noticed something at the time, but I didn’t know who it was specifically.” – So I didn’t mean to let you see it.

    “Brother Xie suddenly did that because he planned to use this method with me to test out who seemed to be watching in secret.” – I just didn’t expect it to be you.

    “Later, Brother Liu suddenly rushed over and shocked us all.” – But that was the panic because I didn’t expect you to accidentally break this relationship. Other than that, there was nothing else.

    Liu Yuan listened quietly to Yan Bugui’s explanation. The tea cup in front of him had been empty for two cups, but now it was filled again.There was no emotion or anger on his expression, but Yan Bugui could tell that Brother Liu was completely listening or not believing it.The two brothers just looked at each other, then sighed almost at the same time, and they both got a meal because of this synchronization.

    After that, Liu Yuan held his forehead with one hand as if he had a headache, and said helplessly: “So when…when did you fall in love? Before I knew you?”

    “It was not decided at that time.” Yan Bugui replied honestly, “In the few years after you returned to Ba Dao Villa, Brother Xie and I experienced some things, and then we gradually decided.”

    There is no doubt that Liu Yuan felt even more heartbroken when he heard this answer: “You, you…how many people know about this?”

    Yan Bugui shook his head, and instead of counting them one by one, Brother Liu, who continued to stimulate him, just replied in summary: “Not many people know, and those who know what they know will not spread it.”

    Liu Yuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: “Not many people know about it, and the restrictions on your relationship will not be too great; but similarly, if you separate in the future, there won’t be too much trouble and burden.” – He can only comfort himself in this way now.

    Yan Bugui was silent for a moment and showed a hesitant look: “There are some things that I can’t tell you without Brother Xie’s permission for the time being. But… in a sense, we have already had a wedding, and the relationship between husband and wife is deeper than an ordinary couple.”

    “…” As a member of his natal family who was not invited at all – or brother-in-law, Liu Yuan doesn’t really want to know how and when this so-called “wedding” was done. He closed his eyes and waved his hand, “Leave me alone to calm down, and then we can talk slowly and in detail – how did you get married!”
