023: Deeper Shit Than He Thought

Xiao Zhan was never one to display timidity. He wasn't used to that emotion as it rapidly flowed through his veins, and every time he met the prince's eyes across the carriage that suddenly became too small for both of them, he felt the blood rushing to his face and he bit his lips, trying to stop the blush that threatened to taint his cheek.

The night's event was still fresh in his head; how could he forget when the object of his obsession was sitting across from him, looking like a three-square meal? He couldn't believe he had sex with the prince. He felt like he won in life or this life.

"Do you feel cold?" The prince inquired aloud, jerking Xiao Zhan from his train of thought. He froze like a deer caught in a trap, but the prince's lips twitched into a smile and he took off his cloak, throwing it over Xiao Zhan's shoulder but when he tried to put his hand around his shoulder to pull him close, Xiao Zhan jerked away from his touch and covered his head and hid his face from the prince's gaze.

Shit! Xiao Zhan had no idea why he was behaving like a love-sick high school girl. Sex wasn't something he was new to, but this was the first time he had done it with a man and a man he had a crush on both in the modern and ancient worlds. Shit! His heart was going crazy every time the prince smiled at him.

"Your Highness, we have arrived." Jian-Jun's voice came from outside the carriage as it finally came to a halt after what felt like an eternity. Instantly, Xiao Zhan was rushing out as if his seat were one fire, and slowly, the prince followed behind him with a fond shake of his head.

What was in front of him was a house in the middle of nowhere, hidden and surrounded by nothing but trees. Xiao Zhan tilted his head when a man walked out of the house and instantly walked towards them, bowing before the prince.

"Your Highness, you are finally here." he beamed.

"Jin." Lan Wangji acknowledged with a nod. "How is Xichen?"

"You should see for yourself." Slowly, his gaze shifted to Xiao Zhan, scrutinizing him from head to toe before greeting him with a polite grin. "You must be Wei Ying; I have heard so much about you. Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Jin, Prince Lan Xichen's consort."

"Prince Lan Xichen?" Confounded, Xiao Zhan whispered the name. He knew about the second prince who suddenly lost his mind and got disqualified as a candidate for the throne but... "I never knew the second prince had a consort." he blurted out before he could stop himself; there weren't any records of the second prince having a consort.

Lan Wangji immediately wrapped his arm around Xiao Zhan's waist and pulled him to himself. "Excuse him,"

Xiao Zhan giggled nervously; he should keep his mouth shut. What did he know about history? "Yeah, he is right; I apologize for just blurting that out."
