Are you Interested in me?

NEXT DAY

Yang Li was walking outside the tent side alone. Bilura was situated a bit far from normal civilization as it was the main training camp of Peavlon. Yang Li loved Bilura Tents because they gave him a different type of peace of mind.

Yang Li sat near the riverbank, His mind was filled up with different thoughts and he was lost among those puzzles. He heard someone's footsteps behind him and he got alert. He took his sword and stood up.

Yang Li- What are you doing here? Juju

Fen Ju- Can't you see?

Yang Li looked at her hand which was holding two baskets full of clothes.

Yang Li- Are you going to wash clothes? But can you do it?

Fen Ju- Why can't I?

Yang Li- You were raised up in luxury

Fen Ju- As if I was like other princesses, now move I need to wash them.

Fen Ju went near the river bank as the flow wasn't that much. She bends down on her knees and started washing clothes.

Yang Li- That's true though, you are not another princess. Or else you would have already blushed.

Fen Ju- Why would I blush?

Yang Li- Like you are literally alone with ME, Yang Li. The most handsome king-like a fallen angel.

He said with a proud smile on his lips, Fen Ju looked at him and gave him a judgmental look.

Fen Ju- Do you really think you are a fallen, angel?

Yang Li- OF COURSE I AM. People like me are rare these days.

Fen Ju thought for a while.

Fen Ju- But I thought you are a fallen witch from hell. Maybe you were creating a lot of trouble there,

Yang Li- Are you kidding me? You called me a witch.

Fen Ju nodded.

Yang Li- You are a witch then too, Cold witch.

He sticked out his tongue out and teased her. Fen Ju sighed and kept doing her work. Yang Li came and sat beside her. He left his sword on the ground and started washing clothes with her.

Fen Ju- I can do it myself.

Yang Li- I don't think so, also it will be night soon, I don't want you to die while freezing.

Fen Ju- It's not tha-that cold.

Yang Li looked at her and nodded. He continued washing clothes. Fen Ju looked at him and bite her lower lips. She looked at the clothes and started washing them.

Yang Li- You want to ask me something?

Fen Ju nodded.

Yang Li- Go ahead,

Fen Ju- Why didn't you kill me or took me as one of your mistresses?

Yang Li- I don't have any mistress, moreover I never even touched one single woman till now.

Fen Ju looked at him with widened eyes. Though she heard a lot about Yang Li she never thought he would be like that.

Yang Li- And about killing you. You are way too precious to be killed for nothing.

Fen Ju- Huh?

Yang Li looked at her and point his finger at her head.

Yang Li- Your brain is what I want for myself and my people. And also for me.

Fen Ju was confused by what he said but soon a smirk appeared on her lips.

Fen Ju- Are you interested in me?

Yang Li was taken aback by her sudden question, he started sweating even at the minus temperature. Before he could say anything, Fen Ju suddenly pushed him back and he fell to the ground. He looked at her and saw an arrow by her side.

Fen Ju- Someone attacked,

Yang Li looked at her and they saw some men running toward them. Both looked at each other and gave each other a nod.

Yang Li stood up and took out his sword, while Fen Ju took clothing from water.

Yang Li- Let's see if you still have some quality.

Fen Ju- As you wish.

Soon enough both were engaged in fighting with those guys. Fen Ju slammed three men in one go and took out her hairpin before stabbing them perfectly. While Yang Li kept attacking them at the speed of light. Fen Ju took two swords from two assailants. And started fighting with both hands. Yang Li looked at her and was amazed by her skills, he smiled and bend down before taking some stones. He kept the stone inside a long white piece of clothes. One was about to stab Fen Ju but Yang Li threw that pouch of stone over his head. Fen Ju looked at him and he just winked his eyes.

Soon all assailants were on the ground and both looked at each other.

Yang Li- You can use both hands. Impressive. You are a dangerous beauty.

Fen Ju- You were about to die and now you are complimenting me.

Yang Li walked toward her and patted her head with a smile. Fen Ju was taken by the sudden touch, she looked at his eyes then at his smile, which was like a shining star.

Yang Li- Mon Lapin.

Fen Ju- Huh?

Yang Li- Thanks for saving my life today.

Fen Ju looked down and a small smile appeared on her lips and she looked at him with a soft gaze.

Fen Ju- I am also grateful to you, I owe you now. Someday, I'll repay you.

Yang Li nodded and stepped back from his place. Both were silent but that was comfortable. He was happy because he got a place in her heart, she was glad that he saved her.

Fen Ju- I think we should go now. It's getting cold also what if some others come out?

Yang Li nodded and looked at those men. Fen Ju walked toward the baskets of clothes that were already washed by them. She started walking but she saw that Yang Li wasn't coming.

Fen Ju- Aren't you coming?

Yang Li smiled at her started walking toward the Tents.

Duyi Chao- Are you kidding me? Someone dared to attack you.

Yang Li nodded with a serious face.

Chang- Have you fought with those types of fighters before?

Yang Li- I haven't but JuJu looked so familiar with their attacking style like she was so perfect with them.

Duyi Chao- Then we should ask her.

Chang- Do you think she will say anything?

Yang Li- Even if she says, I don't want to involve her in my mess. They were there for me and I will find out who they were.

Chang- But Yang, if we ask her then it will be less tiring.

Yang Li shook his head as no and took out a stamp from his pocket.

Duyi Chao- What is this?

Yang Li- Something which will let us reach that attacker behind this.

Meanwhile in the palace of Rusa

Chyou- My King, please stop drinking. It's not good for you.

Aiguo laughed and cried at the same time. He looked at Chyou with red eyes.

Aiguo- Do you think it's bad for me? Huh, I am already destroyed and this wine won't do anything to me.

Chyou- Why are you doing this to you? Everything is perfect now. That witch is gone for good, you, me, and our child.

Aiguo- Witch?

He chuckled sadly.

Aiguo- If she is a witch then I don't know what I should call myself. She was an angel, SHE WAS AN ANGEL GIVEN BY GOD TO ME AS A TREASURE BUT I JUST WASTED HER. SHE WAS EVERYTHING I NEEDED BUT I CHOOSE YOU OVER HER LOYALTY.

Chyou was taken back by his sudden accusation as a home weaker.

Chyou- My King, you are d-drunk n-now.

Aiguo- I AM NOT DRUNK.

He pushed her away from him and also turn the table over the ground. Chyou got scared by his sudden aggressive behavior. She put her hand on her stomach what if something happened to her child?

Aiguo- You, because of you I lost my Xiao XianNV. I lost my love because of lust.

He started laughing and tears were falling from his eyes. He was in pain but not as much as Fen Ju was.

Aiguo- I broke my promise to my angel, I broke her trust in me. I was her pride but I broke her pride. I put her on a bet like she was a product and lose her in hand of Yang Li in the craziness of Power, I AM THE REASON SHE TOOK HER LIFE, I AM THE REASON SHE DIED. I-i am t-the r-reason,,

He was about to fell to the ground and Chyou ran toward him and hold him before he could touch the floor. Tears were flowing from her eyes like a river and her heart was clenching like someone cut it in thousand of pieces.

Aiguo- F-Fen J-Ju, I-I a-am s-sor-sorry, p-please c-co-me b-ba-back.

Chyou bite her lower lips and hugged Aiguo's body.

Chyou- I love you and I know you also love me. We will be happy My King.

It was a slap from karma, it was just one stamble they both faced for breaking somone's heart, for dirting someone's soul, even God doesn't forgive the one who hurts someone's feeling for no reason. Were they expecting they will be happy after all things they did? Was Chyou expecting that she will take Fen Ju's place? But her place wasn't something so can take, cause she could never love him like she did. She could never trust him like she did. She could never sacrifice like she did.
