Bora opened her eyes,she was in someone's lap,she didn't really feel like she used to.She looked up and gasped,she was in a man's lap and he seemed to be talking she watched his Adam's apple bob she was very mesmerized his long black hair,pink and soft looking lips plus his straight back all made her stare in awe."It's Tiāntáng."she gasped and believing she was Xia Chenyu,she puckered up and kisses the corner of Tiāntáng's lip.Tiantang didn't hesitate,he got up and kicked her away."Sect brother, Yuèlìang,what do you think you are doing?!"Tiāntáng seemed very angered."Yuèlìang?"She found herself repeating.Chenyu noticed the fight,she had come with snacks for God knows who."Liang, you are awake."she ran to him and hugged him right.Those words seemed to have hit Tiāntáng hard."Liang?"He stared at Chenyu in disbelief."I told you that fresh air would be good for him."she smiled as though she had just seen her own son wake up.Yueliang couldn't help but stare at Tiāntáng.He was angry,yes but he seemed hotter like that."Put down your sword, please."Chenyu stared at Tiāntáng with her doe eyes and he couldn't help but obey. Yuèlìang only cleared his throat and got up. He quietly brushed the grass off his robe and stood to look at the two since he had no idea where he was going."What were you thinking when you kissed me?"Tiāntáng suddenly inquired from him and he had to come up with an answer whether he wanted to or not."Ahhh,that, it's nothing much,I was just day dreaming."he answered and quite literally held his breath."When did you wake up though? You have been out for two weeks now."Chenyu asked as she checked his temperature.He did not have an answer for that so he only remained silent and stared down at Chenyu who was carefully checking him and making sure everything was okay."I will tell aunt Xing Xing you wile up...she will give you herbs to drink."Chenyu said. However much Yuèlìang was there physically,his mind was running all over the place."Shit,I am doomed and how could I say,"I was day dreaming?He is probably on to me."Chenyu kept on speaking although he was still thinking. Suddenly,his brain took him back to the old woman and Bora's dying body,he saw how his soul went into the book, probably as a protection mechanism. He sighed,it was all over for him in his world,he now had to fight hard to live on in this new world."Are you good?"Tiāntáng asked noticing him become dizzy."I think I see many of you."Yuèlìang laughed."Oh,he is okay"Tiāntáng released him and he fell to the ground with a thud. Tiāntáng stood there laughing his head off until Chenyu scolded him to take the body back home."We really need to hurry,okay?"she said to Tiāntáng who was carrying Yuèlìang on his back. They reached home and put Yuèlìang down,he was sweating yet his body was hot,they were confused on whether to give him a coat or fan him,for once,even Tiāntáng knew what to do."Am I about to lose my brother in this way?"he was horrified,tears almost dropped down but they did not,he had hope and faith that Yuèlìang would make it somehow. The sect leader,Tie Chen,was summoned by Yuèlìang's parents. He grew up in a very rich family,they were nobles,his father was the chief of their area, Tiāntáng's family were the slaves to Yuèlìang's family but Yuèlìang kept Tiāntáng close,in the original book it was to out shine him but he always failed and Tiāntáng views him as a great younger brother. Tiāntáng was staring at Yuèlìang dying and he couldn't do a thing about it but scream for help. Tie Chen finally came to heal Yuèlìang. After hours and hours,he finally finished."Let him rest for a while."Tie Chen said and walked off."You are not even going to eat?"Yuèlìang heard Tiāntáng ask Chenyu. She was moving around some herbs and other things. She was also preparing the room and cleaning it up. A sharp light pierced Yuèlìang the moment he tried to open his eyes so he left them shut. Chenyu walked to him and put him in her laps before putting him in her bossoms,they were big and soft, Yuèlìang wouldn't have minded but what about the female part of him and Tiāntáng? He also did not want to make them aware that he was awake so he let himself get comfortable. Tiāntáng asked his question again,"Won't you eat?" Chenyu just stared at him and kept caressing Yuèlìang and putting a wet cloth on him."Would you stop that? Sect leader Tie Chen already worked upon him so he will be okay."Tiāntáng argued but Chenyu refused to listen. That was her stubborn nature. Tiāntáng hated and loved it at the same time. "Is he more handsome than I am?"Tiāntáng found himself saying and although he regretted it,he was glad he said it."The male lead, jealous of me?"Yuèlìang thought but still kept his eyes closed. Chenyu decided to walk away. Tiāntáng tried to follow her but she went out quick. He stood at the door and stared back at the bed. He stared at Yuèlìang's long lashes,the way his hair fell over his face but his soft pink lips could still be seen,his Adam's apple and how serene he looked generally even though he was sick. Tiāntáng was convinced that the reason why Chenyu was being like this to Yuèlìang was his looks and he was only half way right. He kept staring "I must become like him in order to get her heart"Tiāntáng thought and because he was not hearing any sound, Yuèlìang opened his eyes. His big bright eyes met with Tiāntáng's seductive ones and they both froze for a moment. Yuèlìang's cheeks turned bright red but he covered them with his blanket. He finally got up and walked to Tiāntáng."Is being a man really that bad?"he asked. He meant something else but Tiāntáng understood something else."So you heard,huh?"Tiāntáng came dangerously close. Suddenly, Chenyu came in running. "You shouldn't be up,you are still weak. It has been eight days."she pushed Yuèlìang back into bed and he stayed silent.She sat and held her hand out a stream of yellow light poured into her palm and she pulled Yuèlìang. Tiāntáng banged and the door and begun walking away. "Where to?"Yuèlìang screamed after him. "I am going up to the mountains for seclusion."he answered and flew off before he was even stopped or asked why. "It is good to be in seclusion."Yuèlìang said when Chenyu turned to look at him. She gave him food. They waited for Tiāntáng to come back home but he didn't. Chenyu suddenly started crying. "It is all my fault."she said amidst her sobs. Yuèlìang never said a thing. He instead kept eating his food until he was done. She got up and begun walking to the door."Are you not going to say a thing?" Chenyu suddenly stopped as though she had been doing all that for his attention. He only pushed back his hair and said,"Uhm...safe trip."she stared but he continued,"don't forget the dishes."she came back and angrily gathered the dishes and stormed out.
