The Emperor and his lover

Chapter 99| Royal Court Decision

Feng Zhi and Xue Ming were walking alongside each other in complete silence. Xue Ming few steal a gaze towards him who seem to be in deep thought while worry could clearly be seen on his face. Xue Ming knew he was still worried for Huang Dewei.

'Don't worry too much about Huang Dewei.' Xue Ming said as Feng Zhi looked towards him and nodded his head. Xue Ming did not like that he said nothing in response as he suddenly stopped in his place and pulled Feng Zhi back towards him. Feng Zhi fell into his arms as he was shocked and looked towards him.

'That man did not die so Huang Dewei will be fine. If you worry and stress this much, it will make me worry about you. I don't like seeing being all sad.' Xue Ming confessed truthfully as they were looking deep into each other's eyes. At his worst, Feng Zhi felt butterflies in his stomach and turned red with shame. He quickly looked away without saying anything as he tried getting out of his hold but Xue Ming just tighten his hold around him.

'Look up towards me...you can't run away from me anymore.' Xue Ming said softly and Feng Zhi still kept looking down. Xue Ming sighed sorrowfully.

'You talk so softly with Huang Dewei while you have no words for me. Why? Am I forcing my feeling on you?' Xue Ming asked downheartedly as Feng Zhi was surprised and looked towards him at his words. Was he jealous of Huang Dewei? Feng Zhi thoughted stunned because he had no intention of making Xue Ming jealous. Huang Dewei was his crush but he was still his friend and Wang Lei's lover. He cares about him not because he used to crush on him, but because Huang Dewei was genuinely a nice person.

'He is my... friend.' Feng Zhi whispered answering him as he slowly looked up meeting his gentle eyes.

'At least you responded back to me.' Xue Ming said a little sarcastically and Feng Zhi sighed.

'I really care about him and he is Wang Lei's lover. You no need to be jealous of him.' Feng Zhi said as he wanted to clarify to him that he has no need to be jealous of Huang Dewei.

'Jealous? Me? No way...I am not jealous.' Xue Ming quickly anxiously said as he does not want to admit to Feng Zhi that he was jealous.

'If you say so...' Feng Zhi said as he shrugged his shoulder in a tone indicating that he does not believe him but whatever. Xue Ming closed his eyes to keep him calm as Feng Zhi was staring at his beautiful face and then moved and put his lips on his. Xue Ming's eyes were opened back as he was taken back because that was the first time ever Feng Zhi make a move on him. Feng Zhi slowly moved away after giving him a kiss as they looked at each other Xue Ming pulled him into a corner as he pushed him into a wall and put his lips back on his to get a deeper passionate kiss.

Huang Dewei's gaze looked up towards the eyes looked back towards him with hate and anger. He knew nobody present in this court at a moment had no mercy and care for him...he understood their loathe and resentment-filled eyes. He never excepted anything from them, but he was more hurt over the only one gaze that should be filled with love and affection that was not even looking at him. He does not even spare one single look towards Huang Dewei. Huang Dewei thoughts with aching pain as he was looking at Wang Lei who sitting on top of his Emperor's seat while looking in the air with emotionless eyes.

Huang Dewei understood he did wrong and he regrets his actions but he still believes he does not deserve this kind of reaction from Wang Lei. The guard and others had been saying hurtful things to him for a long time and so what if he lost his mind once? He does not deserve his silent treatment.

'Let's the court hearing begin.' Wang Lei announced as they all put their all attention and focus towards him.

'Your highness, I am here for my son.' Delun's mother said as she bowed down and greeted Wang Lei respectfully.
