"Shizun, when I grow older will you marry me in the pretty lotus garden within the Red Lotus pavilion?" Mo Ran asked politely, a small as well as shy smile etching onto his young self.

His teacher, Chu Wanning smiled slightly, "Maybe not right now Mo Ran, you are but too young. You've got a lot of things to do before you get married and settle down." He responded, sounding a little bit like a nagging mother.

Mo Ran pouted, "That's not a reason! Shizun, please let me marry you!" He said rambunctiously.

Chu Wanning sighed, already losing patience for his disciple, "Alright then, I can't get married to you..." He paused slightly, thinking a little more about his next excuse.

"Because... My clothes wont match the lotus garden in the pavilion. It will clash too hard."  He said finally, his ears tinting into a slight pink as he looked away from his student. After all how could anyone believe the fact that Chu Wanning, -of all people-, would talk about marriage with his own disciple! 

Mo Ran's eyes then widened, "It won't?" He asked surprised, Chu Wanning in response, nodded his head. "Yes, it will not." He said.

Mo Ran grimaced and felt stumped, how could he marry his shizun, if his shizun did not feel beautiful! Chu Wanning on the other hand, covered his smile with his hand.

Who knew his dear disciple would think so hard, on how to solve this 'calamity'. 

After a good two to three minutes, Chu Wanning composed himself, "See, you still have not gotten an idea. Let us marry another day Mo Ran." He said, ending the conversation with a joke.

"Wanning, let's go to the garden of haitang at the Dawning peak, okay? You told that the Red Lotus Pavilion did not match your clothes. I'm one thousand percent sure the Dawning peak's haitang flowers will match it!" Mo Ran said, smiling slightly as he held Chu Wanning's hand.

[A.N. - obvi this is made up- its said there are peculiar flora in dawning peak but i chose haitang because- chu wanning and haitang flowers!]

"Let him go Mo Ran..." Xue Meng spoke, his eyes watered as he looked downcast at his shizun's face, he sniffled.

Mo Ran widened his eyes, "Shut up.. Shut up! SHUT UP!" He hollered angrily, his eyes holding a harsh glare as he stared at his cousin. 

"He isn't dead... He isn't..." 

"He's just asleep in the garden of the pavilion. Why can you not understand that?!" Mo Ran said, his mind getting foggier and foggier as his anger rose.

Xue Meng also got agitated with Mo Ran's outburst, "Do you not understand the words HE'S GONE!" He hollered, his voice rising like the waves of an ocean.

Mo Ran basically growled, "SHIZUN IS NOT DEAD!" He hollered again, repeating what he said before.

"He's just cold. Get me my robe so that he'll feel warmer." He spoke, his anger instantly dissipating.

Xue Meng in response, widened his eyes in shock. After all, when had he ever seen his own cousin so crazed before.

Mo Ran exhaled harshly and looked towards Xue Meng, "Do you want me to give you a special invitation or are you going to give me the robe?" He said, speaking with a condescending tone.

Xue Meng also exhaled harshly, as he basically ripped the robe of the chair, handing it to Mo Ran and walking away.

"You are truly hopeless, Mo Ran." He said, right before leaving. Mo Ran in response rolled his eyes.

Yet, the minute Xue Meng walked away, Mo Ran choked back a sob. Tears waiting to erupt as his lip quivered.

"Shizun..."

"SHIZUN!"

"Why... Why... Why?"

"Please come back..." He finally ended, his eyes closing as he draped the robe on Chu Wanning. Leaning onto Chu Wanning's no longer rising stomach, he wailed.

"Please pay attention to me Shizun."
