Future Change

Chapter 1

"For the sake of our alliance with the Lan Sect, you're marrying Lan Xichen"

"..."

"–WHAT?! Absolutely not! I'm not gonna marry that fake ass guy! Do you even know that, that guy is so fake that even A-Jie's fiancee, Jin Zixuan can be defeated!"

Madame Yu frowned hearing her sons reasoning. "Jiang Cheng! This is for your own good. The decision is final! You're gonna marry him, whether you like it or not!"

"But –!..."

Before Jiang Cheng could continue, Yu Ziyuan left. Leaving the mad Jiang Cheng and worried siblings.

"Xichen, your mother and I decided to match you up with the young master of Jiang Sect, Jiang Wanyin."

Smile stiffens, "..."

"Father, pardon me but, you must not do that. Young Master Jiang hates me, so I don't think it's a good idea...", he reasons.

To be completely honest, It's not like he have problems with his parents setting him up with someone, he understands that his parents are only looking out for him, he also knows that he's not getting any younger so it might be a good idea for marriage. But the problem is, he's going to marry the Young master of Jiang Sect, Jiang Wanyin!? The person he hates the most.

Figuring out his son is having a worry about the marriage, Madame Lan spoke softly. "A-Huan, do this for mother, okay?", Madame Lan said lovingly, while caressing her eldest son's cheek.

The engagement between the two heirs spreads like wildfire. Some people are happy, confuse, shock and disgusted. There are some rumor going on about the two heirs having secret relationship and the adults just found out and decided to make the relationship go further.

It's been 3 years since the final decision. The two heirs still did not like each other. In fact, whenever either of their family visits the other, they would either stay quiet the whole time or avoid each other.

Today is the starting of Year Learning of Young Masters from every clan and sects in Cloud Recesses, Gusu.

Jiang Cheng wasn't exactly thrilled after knowing the fact that he need to study where his so-called 'fianćee' live. Not that he don't want to, in fact its an honor to be under the great teacher, Lan Qiren's wing. He just can't stand the thought of staying in Cloud Recesses.

Not just that, he also have to sleep where Lan Xichen sleeps!

Oh hell no!, He thought.

But here he is, inside his fiance's private room, laying on his bed, staring at the ceiling, re-thinking; what did he do in his past life to experience this shit.

While in deep thought, he heard a knock.

Jiang Cheng sits with a groan, "What?"

From outside, a disciple spoke, "Pardon, young master Jiang. But, Sect Leader Lan request your presence in Lanshi.", after that, he left.

What is it now..., He thought as he lazily went to the door and forcedly fix his posture and proceed to the Lanshi.

'Ughh, I hate this.'

_______

Lan Xichen on the other hand, trying to keep his patience in line.

Both Madame and Sect Leader are talking about their own topics, while him just sitting there smiling while trying to keep his patience.

Both adults are talking about his marriage with that annoying purple rookie (Jiang Wanyin). That guy is full of himself, so prideful. No wonder his previous several matchmakers gave up on him looking for a maiden who suits for his ugly personality. Lan Xichen thoughts.

After a while of listening to adults talking about the preparations, they heard a knock.

*Knock*
*knock*

"Pardon me, Masters. Young Master Jiang is here to attend your presence."

Then the door opened, Jiang Cheng walked with a frown plastered on his face.

Unfortunately for them, they accidentally made an eye contact. Jiang Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes. Lan Xichen, who clearly saw the act, wanted to just slap that guy.

Jiang Cheng was about to sit next to his mother, when Madame Yu glared at him for no reason. Madame Yu force him to sit next to his soon-to-be husband. He had no choice but to obey his mother, even if he threw a tantrum he still had to obey her, because, well... she's his mother.

Both sat next to each other with awkwardness, both just stayed quiet, just listening to their mothers making more preparations for the marriage.

After hours of listening to them, trying not to lean in and fall asleep. A knock heard and someone from outside spoke.

"Sect Leader, someone asks if they could talk to you."

They looked at each other with confusion.

"Let them in."

The the door opened. Showing teenagers wearing Jin, Lan, Jiang and Ouyang robes.

After some silence. One of them spoke with shaky, trembling voice.

"...A-Niang..."
