The Delusory Ice Wall

Chapter 16

Two weeks passed like HELL For Yibo, Zhuo Cheng is so strict with him, and he can't say no to him too. Hai Kuan just looks at them and laughs.

"Stop Laughing I Will Die Like This!". Yibo was in his brother's room whining as he rolled on his brother's bed.

"What can I do to you then? He is not listening to me". Hai Kuan writes something on paper and places it in a big file.

"What you did to his brother is something more than this, Yibo; bear with him". He said and Yibo sighed heavily.

"When will he come anyway?".

"He said he will return after he makes sure that Wei WuXian is ok". Yibo sits properly on the bed.

"He stopped me from visiting him". Hai Kuan looks at him and smiles.

"Yibo, it may be hard for Wei WuXian to look at you for a while, wait until things go calm".

"....Ok, Oh! By the way, I don't think their names are real; you heard Jiang Cheng calling him Zhan-ge before; do you know their real names??". Hai Kuan thinks about it but shakes his head.

"I Don't remember. I didn't hear them calling their real names in front of me before; we will ask Jiang Cheng when he returns".

"Why Did You Do That To Him?!!". Xiao Zhan shouts at his brother, who is looking at his sword, ignoring him.

"What did I do?". Xiao Zhan sighed and held his head.

"Zhuo Cheng please, be gentle with him, ok??". Zhuo Cheng looks at him sharply and stands up from the chair.

"Gentle?? He Almost Killed My Only Family in Front Of My Eyes, And I Have To BE Gentle?? Sorry, But I Can't; I Have To Be MORE severe than This". Xiao Zhan shakes his head.

"But.....Oh Forget about it". He changes his mind because he knows his brother will not change his mind easily.

"Anyway, how about your wound? What did the doctor say?". Zhuo Cheng said changing the subject.

"It healed, but not that much; it needs more time from inside to heal". Zhuo Cheng looks at him with his teary eyes and holds his hand.

"At least you can move, what will I do if you can't move?". Xiao Zhan smiles at him and touches his cheek.



"Don't think about it too much; I will return and do my job perfectly like before; I can't get back to him with this spirit".

"Zhan-ge....I will take care of you until the end". Xiao Zhan giggles at him.

"It's my job, though; I am older".

Zhuo Cheng returned to the palace at night and saw Hai Kuan's room lights still on, so he went to check on him; he knocked on the door and saw him sleeping on the table and the papers all around him.

"Man~ I can't leave you alone for one hour". He said annoyingly and took the papers away and looked at him.

"Prince Hai Kuan, wake up, go and sleep on the bed, Wake up". He said as he patted his shoulder; Hai Kuan opened his eyes slowly and sat properly.

"Jiang Cheng?".

"Yes, did you eat dinner?".

"Yes, it was delicious....Where is Yibo??". He looked around but didn't find his brother.

"I haven't checked on him yet. Go and sleep on your bed, and I will go to check on him". He nodded and stood up, but lost his balance and almost fell, yet Zhuo Cheng held him fast.
