' The more I fall for you, the more I hate myself for falling for you, 'cause the truth is we can never be together ' - (courtesy : Hplyrikz.com)
These were the same words that were scribbled on the walls of the immortal prison of Jannat.
These were...
" Hey brat! Where are you taking me to?" Shen San yelled for the 'god knows how many'th time. Xin Zhiwang was running deeper and deeper into the words, dragging Shen San along with him. Annoyed as he was, Shen san was intrigued to sense the faint magic coursing through his blood. He stopped when they reached a clearing. Xin Zhiwang was surprised to see that Shen San was calmly wiping sweat off,while he himself was panting. Clearly,that man should be at least a few years older than him! But, whatever Jiu shu did,there was a certain grace to it.

" Why did you bring me here, Xiao Xin? "Shen San asked, clearly frowning. Xin zhiwang set his hands on his hips, and smirked " Jiu Shu, I don't want to marry Wu Shu's daughter! I brought you here to explain that...Now,till you agree to go back without trying to matchmake for me, you'll be stuck here, with me..! If you agree, I will take you to the other side of this forest, from where you can easily find your way back. And, don't say that I didn't warn,you'll surely lose your way if you try to get away on your own... This forest is quite huge, but I am familiar with each nook and cranny... Man, I grew up here!" There was a hint of pride on his face.

Shen San felt annoyed. He clearly disliked such bratty kids. But a part of him felt excited, at the prospect of adventure.It had been many years since he had company. Well,definitely not appreciated company. He huffed, and settled on the forest floor. He was thankful that his robes were not the usual long, light coloured hanfu. After a while, Xin Zhiwang stretched his limbs, and joined him on the floor.
Noticing the silence grow awkward, Xin Zhiwang smiled apologetically and said " Err.. Sorry for this , Jiu Shu... But the last time I let a shushu meet my mother, I had to pair myself with my brother's crush to escape a marriage to shushu's daughter! Poor Azaan ge was scarred for life! That's why I decided to use this method.Sorry again!" Shen San could understand that, though... He himself had thwarted many unwanted proposals.
" Have you spend nights here?" Shen San asked. Xin Zhiwang shrugged his shoulders. He had not thought about that... Surely, they could fend off against a few wild creatures...
