Lan Zhan
I was waiting for my uncle in his office.. I want to discuss with him my plans on going to Yunmeng. I was reading a book when he entered.
"Ah.. Lan Zhan.. what do you want??"
I bowed at him before we both sat.. "uncle I want to go to Yunmeng .."
Why??
I want to learn their fighting skills..
"Lan Zhan you don't need other clans skills, you are already excellent with just mastering our own fighting skills.." he scoffed" you think I didn't know that you're getting real close with Wei Ying.. It's good that his father took them already.. A person like him who doesn't have discipline doesn't belong here.. he's not even a real Jiang.."
"Uncle!!! I can't believe you're saying those words." I was really surprised by the words my uncle is uttering right now.. "Wei Ying might be playful a lot of times.. but he's not that bad for you to judge him like that.."
"This is the first time you talk back at me.. see his influence on you..?"
"Uncle I'll tell you something that will make you more angry.. since you made up your mind on hating Wei Ying.." I am already standing and glaring at my uncle.." Wei Ying and I are in a relationship.. " my uncle stood up
"Nonsense!!! Lan Wangji you better stop this rubbish now!! I would have to punish you for being insolent.."
"Then I'll take the punishment!" I left the office and walked straight to the punishment hall, I told the elders there about my punishment, that night I got whipped a hundred times.. and before the dawn came I decided to leave cloud recessess... As I was walking to the hall my brother came out of a room and blocked me..
""Wangji, you're still injured.. "
"I can handle myself.."
"Brother you can rest first and clear the problem between you and uncle first, before you go to Yunmeng.."
I won't stay here anymore, and I won't listen to a person who belittle someone special to me even if he's my uncle...
My brother sighed " I can't change your mind then.." he handed me a small pouch bag " here take this, inside is a medicine, you can use it to cure your wounds.. take care of yourself Wangji.. and don't forget to send message to me.."
I nodded and smiled at him "thanks brother "
When I get to the port it's only three in the morning, I still need to wait for another two hours so I could rent a boat to sail to Yunmeng.. I sat on one of the benches near the river, may back is killing me.. I closed my eyes tightly every time my wounds ache.. Suddenly a man approached me..
"Young man you looked like you're in pain.." he asked me worriedly
"Just a little, thank you for your concern.."
"Where are you heading??"
"To Yunmeng.."
"I'm a banker, that one over there is my boat.. I can get you to Yunmeng.. get on the both so you could rest properly.."
A smile rose in my lips.. " really!!" I stood up and followed the kind man.. his boat had a small space in the middle where there is a roof and a bench inside to sit or lay..
"I have a quilt inside you can use that so you could rest, we will be travelling for 2 days, I saw a smear of blood on your back.. do you have extra clothes with you..?
"Yes kind sir.. thank you for your help.."
"Don't mind it, you remind me of my son, so when I saw you wincing in pain I thought I should help you, and since I also live in Yunmeng better yet send you there now so I could also take a rest and see my family.."
***"Uncle.."
"Did he left already..??"
"You shouldn't have said those things.. Master Jiang Feng Mian is your friend.."
"I know.. but I can't let Wangji to just waste his ability and Innocence to that... that boy.. he's too good for him.. he even has the audacity to lie now"
"Wei Ying is a nice kid, he's just playful.." Xichen sighed " don't worry uncle.. let's just Wangji think things through, he'll come back once his head is clear.. but don't expect that he will leave Wei Ying for us.. you must learn to accept who Wangji loves..
