"No.. father it is not fair... they are my dogs.. how can you tell me to let them go.. I love them.. why should I let them go for someone who came here.. he is not even our family..." little Jiang Cheng was fuming while talking to his father.

"A'Cheng.. I told you.. wei ying is going to stay with us and he is going to be your brother from now on and he is afraid of them.. so.. just keep them away from him..." Jiang father said.

"You are unbelievable.. I hate you..." the little kid said and ran back to his room, where he met a boy who was wearing black robes and his hair was tied in a ponytails with red ribbons.

"you.. get out... it is all happening because of you..." Jiang Cheng shouted at him and went inside the room. The boy who was taken aback by the outburst of Jiang Cheng had a hurt expression on his face. The boy in the black robes left the room. It was late at night and Jiang Cheng looked around his room and find it empty. His father allowed wei wuxian to sleep inside his room and he already prepared the bed for him. He went outside and it was indeed late at night...

"Where is he..? Its so late..." alarm bells went off inside the mind of Jiang cheng and he can feel the shiver while thinking about his father's anger.

"Jiejie..." Jiang Cheng went to find his elder sister and told her about everything. They took a lantern and walked around to find wei ying. Finally they found him sitting on a tree and upon asking he climbed up to escape from a dog and the panicked look on his face was enough to portray the level of fear the kid has for dogs. Jiang Cheng couldnt help but feel ashamed of himself. Finally yang li caught him who jumped from the tree and they all went back, of course after getting an earful from their mom.. that day Jiang Cheng down to protect his brother and always be with him.

Xiao zhuocheng woke up from his sleep and when he looked around he can see a unfamiliar place but before he could comprehend his surroundings his mind was occupied with the dream he had earlier. He saw the young self's of himself, his brother and sister somewhere. They were wearing typical Chinese ancient drama clothes. He couldnt wrap his head around it.

"Wei wuxian..." as soon as those words left his mouth, his head started aching and he couldn't help but hold his head tightly with his free hand. Suddenly so many memories started flow into him.

"Wei wuxian.. you better not make trouble in gusu Lan clan...." he saw himself in purple robes and saw xiao zhan in black robes.

"Jiang Cheng... shijie loves me more..." wei wuxian said and went to hug his sister.. Jiang Cheng with a annoyed expression went to separate them bit their sister held them close.

"Oh my sweet didi.. A'Cheng, A'ying.. dont fight... jiejie love both you guys..." the shijie looked like his own sister xuan Lu.

"If gusu has their twin jades of lan, then our yunmeng also has the twin pride of yunmeng. You and me..." wei wuxian said to Jiang Cheng.
