My Cloud and My Lotus

Chapter 13: Final

Yu Ziyuan looked at her son, as he bowed to them. Fengmian cleared his throat and started to speak.

"A-Cheng...."

Fengmian spoke in a soft stern tone to Jiang Cheng as the younger man looked up to his father. He raised his eyebrow to know why he was called to the main hall, he already has a hint.

"Yes Father, is there something you need?"

"We need to talk to you about something."

"about what?"

"About you marriage."

Jiang Cheng frowned at his father, for bringing that topic back, he already wasn't happy that he will be Lan Yìchèn's husband in a week, knowing he likes someone else and not him.

He looked up at his father and cleared his thoart but was about to speak when his mother spoke before him.

"Well? I read your letter, and you wanted to postpone the marriage a few months ago..."

Ziyuan looked to her son, who was surprised that she had read it, well he did addressed it to both of his parents after all.

"I want to know why? It's your chance to marry the first jade?"

Ziyuan spoke as she started to touch her ring, looking impatiently at her son. Who wanted an answer immediately, Jiang Cheng didn't know what to say and he gulped.

"I don't know why should I marry him...? I bet he's inlove with someone else..."

Jiang Cheng spoke looked back down, Ziyuan's eye twitch as she heard her son's answer the Esteem Zewu-jun, 'Tch, how dare that Zewu-jun! Lan Qiren you better have a good explanation for this!' Ziyuan thought in her head as a vein popped up on her forehead.

She gripped on Zidian hard, Jiang Cheng didn't know what to do nor say anything. Jiang Fengmian who looked at his wife and spoke.

"San-niang, I am sure you that the young master Lan has a reason..."

"Shut Up! Old man Qiren better have an explanation for this shit!"

Ziyuan stood up angerly and looked at Jiang Cheng and back to Jiang Fengmian. Zidian started to spark, with bright violet electric bults.

"My Child is not someone to be known as 'second' and will never will be."

Yu Ziyuan stormed out of the throne room, the disciples suddenly flinched at her scream inside and bowed when she left the main hall. As she was far gone enough they lift there heads and looked backed inside, and closed the main hall door leaving Jiang Fengmian and Jiang Cheng.

" Please do not mind your mother, A-Cheng... she's just worried for you that's all. You can continue what you were doing before."

Jiang Fengmian said, and Jiang Cheng left the main hall, and went to the peir were many lotus flowers were floating. He looked up and there was many people started to get ready for the upcoming Festival of Yunmeng Jiang. Jiang Cheng almost forgot that it'll be the coming of the founding of Jiang Clan, that is held every year in November.
