Lotus Flower 37. Cold War
The next day, early in the morning Feng Shao woke up to a knock at the door. He groaned whilst getting off the bed smoothing his robe to make it look neat then he opened the door. He expected to see Lui Xian but to his disappointment, it was only a young girl who stood nervously her eyes roaming all over the place like a thief. She avoided looking into Feng Shao's eyes whilst greeting him with a squeaky voice. "Good morning my lord, I." The little girl didn't get to finish what she wanted to say because Feng Shao cut her off. He felt his ears ringing and her voice made him feel uncomfortable. His mood was off today after everything that happened and also he had ended up remembering his worst memories. All these things have been partially the reason why he got irritated easily, making the little worker who had come to serve him wonder if he had slept on the wrong side of the bed. "What do you want?" Feng Shao asked her his face stone cold and his tone flat. He didn't realize that he
Lotus Flower 38. Are You Okay?
How long were they going to let the cold war keep on rolling?No one knew, except the two companions who were lying side by side on a mat waiting to be called out for supper by the family where they were momentarily crushing on.The place was small and crammed so it was difficult for them not to be too close. Feng Shao felt uneasy when his back made contact with Lui Xian's chest. He could feel Lui Xian's breath on his sensitive neck. The skin that was continuously being fanned on started to emit heat leaving a red tint that seemed to travel to his cheeks. All in the silence he could only pray for the other to shift to the other side.Since the day the two men stopped talking to each other, Feng Shao felt concise whenever he was around Lui Xian. He would sometimes find himself stealing a glance at the other man. His face would become red hot when he stared for too long or when Lui Xian caught him staring. It started to get worse when he was saved from that wild animal. At first, he had
Lotus Flower 39. Those Were Good Times
"What do you wanna know?" Feng Shao asked with a teasing tone. He was deeply gazing at him with his sapphire eyes glistening with a sparkle, which was visible to Lui Xian who just looked at him plainly. Feng Shao had a dazzling smile plastered on his lips. He observed how Lui Xian's eyes didn't waver when he noticed him staring for too long. His heartbeat plummeted just by looking at the man that was sitting by his side."Where you come from. What you like. What you were like in your childhood. Anything." Lui Xian clarified. His voice was low and sharp. When he finished relaying his answer, Lui Xian moved his gaze away from Feng Shao and looked at the clear sky. He decided to lie down. His arms folded a little bit trying to support his head from reaching the ground. His back lied directly on the grass and his legs crossed together, one foot touching the ground whilst the other was suspended in the air.Upon seeing him like that, Feng Shao smiled more deeply. He watched him close his e
Lotus Flower 40. Are They A Couple?
"You grew up travelling. I wish I had lived like that. Maybe my family would still be alive." Feng Shao lamented falling in step with Lui Xian. They were not far from the gate and could see Mei Suyu, the young villager, pacing in front of the house. He seemed very worried. Feng Shao immediately abandoned his partner and ran towards the young boy. He ruffled his hair, before showing his concern."What happened?" "Papa fell sick. Mother took him to the clinic. I don't know what is gonna happen to him." Mei Suyu wuffled trying to not let his tears be seen by these two men. He had started to admire. Feng Shao comforted him and then took something from their allocated room before he went after them.Lui Xian remained behind. He watched over Mei Suyu who was with his face looking down and Feng Shao's picture flashed in his mind. "He is gone there. Your father will be alright don't worry." "Hah, is he a doctor?" Mei Suyu asked with a perplexed expression. He didn't believe that the beautif
Lotus Flower 41. Cute
When Feng Shao and Lui Xian sobered up, they found that Mei Suyu was smiling at them with his eyes twinkling with little stars. His admiration seemed to have deepened to such a greater degree. It made them wonder what had made him like this."Brother Lui, Brother Feng." He greeted with a bow. The two were surprised. When did they become his brother? They looked at each other, both their eyes filled with shock and confusion. Feng Shao was first to regain his senses. He turned back to him and smiled with a nod. It made the young man very happy. He was thrilled to be a little brother to such a remarkable couple. It could be his little secret.Unknown to the two men, Mei Suyu went away singing and asking the heavens to bless their non-existent relationship."He seems to be in good mood. Should we inform them we are leaving today?" Feng Shao worried pointing at the retreating Xiaomei. Lui Xian nodded. "We have to. We can not just leave, it's impolite to do so." They both followed after Mei
Lotus Flower 42. Huo Ling
"Lui, tell me something...." "Shh shh."Lui Xian cut off Feng Shao. He held his sword, his eyes focused behind Feng Shao. He had detected an unusual sound and immediately became aware. He saw a shadow hiding behind a tree that was ten meters away from where they were. "Come out!" He demanded. Already drawing his sword out."Okay, okay. I am coming out."A man wearing a dark green garb, with simple designs at its seams. Came closer to light. He had a robe with a lighter colour than the garb. He held a fan which he used to cover his face. His hair was let loose. Some strands were suspended at the sides."We meet again. I have been waiting for you." The man spoke whilst taking a seat and extending his left hand for warmth on the fire. The other maintained its hold on the fan."Bandit Huo. What brings you here?" Lui Xian mocked, still holding his sword at ready."Call me Huo Ling. Why hate me that much? We only met once and you want me gone. What have I ever done to you?" He lamented, r
Lotus Flower 43. Is He Gone?
"What now? We wanted to find him then he came to us. Do you still want to keep looking for him?" Feng Shao politely asked while he was busy setting up a place where he could sleep. It had darkened and the moon was no longer much of help. Their fire was also out."We will still go to the next village. Do you want to stay in the jungle all the time?" Lui Xian conversed from across him. He was also preparing his part. They had long eaten the fish and exhausted all the topics they could think of."Lui, if what Huo Ling said is right. Are you going back?" Feng Shao inquired in a low tone, his hands were clutched tightly, he feared to be alone again. Even though he had promised he wouldn't return until he got the bandit but now what.'He might leave again.'Lui Xian turned to look at the wallowing pumpkin before him. A smile surfaced on his lips. "You don't want me to go?" He felt pleased. Apart from Rushan, he had never been so close to anyone. All his life, he had one true friend and unr
Lotus Flower 44. I Won't
Strolling in the bustling streets, Feng Shao stuck close to Lui Xian feeling very glad. The people in the streets could actually see little stars glistening on him making his mood obvious to everyone who passed by him. Nevermind Lui Xian who was very close to him to the point that their breaths mingled.At this time, they could freely spend their moments without worrying or searching for anyone. There was no need to think of Huo Ling or the past. They only needed to relax and take a tour trying to familialize with the place."Lui, do you wanna try that pie?" Feng Shao dragged him to the place where the pies were being sold. He reached in his sleeves and took out a few coins which he handed over to the seller and in return, he received three of their best pies known throughout the village. He gave two to Lui Xian and started eating the remaining one."These are delicious. Much better than those which were sold in Qiu Yu Village." He commented intending to buy another one. Lui Xian dragg
