7.8 I'll wait for you

A-Xuan walked to him and lifted his chin.

"I came here to stop you from killing Yizhen."

Liren asked angrily:

"What is it with you and my brother? Why do you keep protecting him?"

A-Xuan said as a matter of fact:

"I love him and I won't let anyone hurt him."

Liren looked at him wide-eyed. This is why he's been loyal to his brother and protecting him. He's in love with him.

"Do you think my brother deserves your love or loyalty?"

A-Xuan asked uncertainly:

"W-What do you mean?"

Seeing that he was taking the bait Liren said:

"He doesn't care about you and he'll never fall in love with you."

"Y-You don't know that."

Liren moved toward him and said:

"I do, we grew up together. I know him better than anyone."

He watched as A-Xuan looked down sadly.

"You can be my minister and I'll always be by your side."
