"You're gay too!?"
Feng Ao Xiu became startled. He realized he explained it in the wrong order, "What!? No, I'm not..."
"It's okay, Second Young Master! I understand. It must have been tough for you." Qian Hui said. "No wonder... I thought it was a bit weird you support the First Young Master."
He looks at Feng Ao Xiu with pity in his eyes.
"Don't look at me with those eyes! You misunderstand, I said I'm not gay!!"
Feng Zhong Tian said, "Wait! If it's a little boy! Could you be a paedophile? Now that I think about it, you purposely seduce Princess Ming who also has a small stature!"
"Don't make it worse! I'm not gay nor a paedophile! Would you guys please listen to the whole story before making your own assumptions!?"
"Second Young Master, for your information, I'm not swinging that way," said Qian Lu. Then he hides behind Qian Hui.
Feng Ao Xiu, "..."
This fatty is the worst! Have you ever take a look at yourself in the mirror? Even if I'm really gay, then I definitely would not choose a fat pig like you.
The worst of all, stop hiding behind your brother! It is understandable if your brother hides behind you. But do you really think you can cover your large body behind your skinny brother?
In fact, you don't even need to hide! You are way stronger than me. What are you afraid of?
Unknowingly, Little Chi also joined in, "Ack! Paedophile! Paedophile!"
***
"What are you doing here?"
"Wuwuuwuu...", the sobs died down. "Who... who are you?"
The kid has a small body and a pretty face, probably nine or ten years old. If it wasn't for the short hair, and the black male robe that he's wearing, Feng Ao Xiu would have already mistaken him for a girl.
The boy was probably noble. The clothes that he wore look expensive and refined. It must not be too long before he falls inside.
There's quite a wide wound on his knee and elbow, the fall must have been the cause of it.
"Don't worry, I'm a nice guy!" Feng Ao Xiu said with a smile. "Come here, let me treat your wound!"
The boy smiled, he's happy that he finally met someone.
Then, the little boy paused for a bit. Then, he shook his head, "No! Mother told me not to talk to a stranger!"
Feng Ao Xiu's eyes twitched.
[Ah... Little boy, you are too innocent! Don't you know that you are in a precarious situation? This is no time to listen to your mother!]
"Trust me! I'm a nice guy!"
The little boy still shook his head, "Mother said to especially not trust a stranger that said 'Trust me' or 'I am a nice guy'"
Feng Ao Xiu reaches his limit. He turned his back and angrily said, "Fine! I'll just leave you alone! Let's see how you survive!"
The little boy did not understand what he did wrong. This stranger suddenly gets angry at him for no reason. The little boy realized there is no else besides this stranger. He bawled his eyes out again, "Uwaaahh... No, don't leave me! Wuhuuhuu..."
"..."
Feng Ao Xiu turns back again, he couldn't just leave this kid by himself. "Don't cry. I'll only treat your wound. Okay?"
The little boy nodded. His wound was finally treated by Feng Ao Xiu. Luckily, Feng Ao Xiu brought some medicine in his storage ring.
While his left elbow was wrapped with a bandage. The little boy asked the stranger, "What's your name?"
"Kid! Didn't your mother told you to introduce yourself before asking for someone else's name?"
The little boy replied, "I'm not a kid! I'm fourteen years old!"
"You are fourteen! It's only one year younger than me.", Feng Ao Xiu was surprised. This kid was actually already a teenager, but his body and attitude still look like a kid.
"Tell me your name!"
"My name is Ni...", the little boy paused for a few seconds. "My name is Ren!"
Feng Ao Xiu's eyes were twitching.
[This kid is crafty, I am treating him, and he still didn't trust me. He didn't even give me his full name. I hear it clearly, he was saying 'Ni', but it ended up becoming 'Ren' Is 'Ren' really his real name? I'm not convinced.]
Feng Ao Xiu finished treating Ren's wound. The left elbow and right knee of Ren were wrapped in a white bandage.
Little Ren smiled, he moved his hands and leg around. It didn't hurt anymore. This man did a great job.
He asked, "I already told my name, what's yours?"
"Call me Xiu" Feng Ao Xiu replied.
[Two people can play at that game. If you can't trust me, then I won't either.]
Little Ren curled his lips. He didn't seem to be happy someone was using his method of introducing self.
Then he smiles again, "Xiu, you are truly a good man. Now, get me out of here! If you do, I'll take you to be my servant. Be grateful!"
Feng Ao Xiu scratched his own head. Now that Little Ren mentions it, they couldn't get out of here. No one ever made it back out of the Dark Cloud Ravine. What should they do!?
"I... I can't get us out of here!"
Little Ren tilted his head, he asked innocently, "What do you mean by you can't get us out of here?"
Feng Ao Xiu said in a depressed manner, "We are trapped. There's no way out of here."
"Uwaaa...", Little Ren cried again. "I don't like being here! It's too scary! Get me out! Wuhuuuhuu..."
Feng Ao Xiu covers his ears with both of his hands. This kid cried too loud. I should have just lied. "Don't cry! We will get out of here!"
"Really!?"
"Yes! Yes! There must be a way out! We got to search for it!"
The two young men searched around for an exit. Three hours passed, but they found nothing except skeletons and dirt.
Feng Ao Xiu was especially getting really hungry, he has not eaten for the past three months, "Little Ren, did you have any food?"
Little Ren shook his head.
[Ahh... I'm going to die! I should have listened to my servant and ate some food.]
The sky has gone dark, but the stars were shining brightly in the night. The two decided to get some sleep, and they both lay down as they look at the shining stars.
Little Ren said joyfully, "The stars are beautiful!"
"Yes, It's pretty!"
"Xiu, thank you for being here with me. It's scary to be here alone."
Feng Ao Xiu smiles back. So, this is what it feels like to have a little brother. Being depended on feels great.
"Will we get out of this place?" asked Little Ren.
Feng Ao Xiu wants to frown, but he couldn't let Little Ren see his expression. He forced a smile, "No need to worry! I'll definitely get you out of here, no matter what!"
Little Ren seems happy to hear Feng Ao Xiu's reply.
Feng Ao Xiu said again, "I think you are too soft. Without me, you will definitely be taken advantage of."
"You need to be more vicious! If you don't like someone, then say it right in front of his face. Just call him ugly, weak, incompetent, or whatever!"
Little Ren nodded, "I see! So, Xiu like a vicious woman!"
Feng Ao Xiu also nodded, "Yes! Yes! Women need to be vicious and able to speak what's on their mind freely! Wait... When did we speak about women?"
Feng Ao Xiu startled, he immediately jumps. His arm moves and slowly points at Little Ren.
"You're... You're a girl?"
"Of course, I'm a girl! Xiu, what are you talking about?"
Little Ren pouted.
***
Qian Hui said, "Oh! He is actually a she! Why don't you say it from the start?"
Qian Lu laughs, "I thought Second Young Master was really gay."
"I told you from the start that I'm not gay!"
Feng Zhong Tian puts his chin on his hand, "Hmm... Little Ren body is small! So you like that type?"
Someone with a lovely voice said, "I see, so Brother Ao Xiu is a lolicon! I'm glad."
"Lolicon! Lolicon!" Little Chi screamed.
Feng Ao Xiu snapped, "No! I'm not a loli..."
[Wait! Who said that? Who said I'm a lolicon?]
All the men in the room turned their eyes to the source of the beautiful voice.
Heavens! It's Princess Ming!
Princess Ming eagerly said, "Brother Ao Xiu, continue! Qiao An really likes love story!"
What is the Fairy Princess doing here?
When did she arrive?
Did she found out!?
