Next day Wei Ying woke up early(around 4 a.m.) with a headache. He tried to hold his head, but was unable to lift his hand. He found his shijie hugging him tightly from one side on the other side Jiang Cheng was all over him. As if Wei Ying was the mattress for him.
He tried to make a move so he could breathe a little but Jiang Cheng held him tighter, every time he moved. He sighed, and dropped the struggle. He snuggled a little closer a smile came to his face as he felt the warmth of home in their embrace.
He got lost in thought, and soon sleep once again took him under its patronage.

Next time he woke up to falling of something. He looked down, and uncontrollable laughter erupted from him, by the scene visualto him.
Jiang Cheng was shocked, also trying to sooth the pain in butt and head along with looking at Wei Ying without batting eyelashes drooling from mouth, both cheeks red with embarrassment. Cute, funny and adorable all at the same time.
He teased Jiang Cheng "Noooo one asked you to wake me up in such a special way 'landing on butt' in early morning. Weren't you supposed to be sleeping? Well whatever..... I love the way you wake me today ..... ummmm.... will you do this everyday for me'(puppy eyes while batting eyelashes)'."
"As if....."Jiang Cheng humped.
"I....(while looking all around the room for excuse) I...I....yup I went close to you to check whether you have woken up or not. Yup that's the leason. I was not sleeping with you and fall as you are thinking..humph....bad gege."Listening himself being called gege Wei Ying started teasing him again.....
As a result Jiang Cheng never called him Gege after that (not on face....for sure.).
.......A disciple entered the room, and spoke politely "Young master Jiang Young master Wei sect leader want you two to come to the main hall, to discuss yesterday's events. And I also heard he is going to give you two reward."
" And .....(he looked up at both of them skeptically) he hope for you two to dress well and not to bicker as there are going to be guest from other sect. He want you two to be there in another half hour." He left after telling the orders.

Main hall
Jiang Feingmin was sitting in the centre on the Lotus seat the guest from other sect in golden robe were sitting on right side while Madam You and Jiang Yanli were sitting in the left side, face to face with guests. Everyone was engrossed in discussion, the gate opened and two chubby babies entered the room sporting full seriousness and confidence beyond their ages.
They spoke in unison while bowing " Greetings to sect leader Jiang. Greeting to Madam Yu. Greeting to Madam Jin. We are honoured to have have you here."
Greeting to Young master Jin. Greeting to Young maidan Jiang."
"May we know sect leader why we are called here."
Jiang Yanli was controlling her smile. On the other hand Jiang Feingmian didn't know is he should be more proud or shocked by the way these two unruly brats showed courtesy and respect, who never ever attend classes. Always busy in creating troubles.
He was more terrified than happy seeing them this well behaved he checked twice to confirm, is these two really his son and nephew.
He gulped down and asked "We want to know in detail what happened in carnival that day. We have saved the children but we want to know the whole story, to confirm whether it was just kidnapping or something big. Madan Jin is here because most of the children were from there sect. We all are looking for answers here. Now explain."
