Transmigration: Save My Chastity

[31] A Small Bud

After a hot bath, Zhan Chen dried his long hair and sat on the bed. He looked back at what happened this afternoon. He had never had a breakdown since he was in junior high. He heaved a sigh. Thanked God that Wei Dage was there or else... he didn't know what he would do.

Remembering what happened in his last breakdown...

Thinking he might do something stupid, he shuddered. He was very, very thankful to the Emperor for being there with him. Also, when he remembered about what the young Emperor had said before...

Again, his heart was doing that thump, thump, thump thingy.

"Ugh," rubbing his chest with discomfort, Zhan Chen tried to take a deep breathe to ease his heart. A sudden thought occurred... it couldn't be that he had a heart disease?

Impossible! He was so young and healthy that he couldn't have a heart disease? En, very impossible, impossible!

He felt his heart again and was relieved that it didn't beat crazily again.

Lying on his bed, Zhan Chen reminded back at his outing today. He was very happy and Emperor Xian was a very good companion. He never had a moment to spend feeling bored. He giggled when he remembered how the young Emperor was trying stiffed to hold his smile. The smile looked unnatural on Wei Dage but somehow he felt him funny and cute.

Eh, did he just think that Wei Dage was cute?

Zhan Chen immediately berated himself. There was no way such a big man like Emperor Xian could be associated with that kind of word. Handsome is the right word but cute?

Emperor Xian might get mad if he knew about Zhan Chen's thinking.

Hugging his pillow, Zhan Chen tried to imagine the young Emperor's angry face. Somehow, he couldn't picture it. The man had been kind and gentle to him since the beginning and it was impossible for him to imagine his angry face.

"I hope you can change your heart for me."

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Argh! Again his heart was beating faster again. His pretty eyes widened and fearfully thought he might really have a heart disease. Sitting on his bed, he was concerned if he should go inform his parents.

But the Bai's couple were already worried about him and he didn't want to add to their burden...

So, with that thinking, he calmed down and closed his eyes.

Inhale... Exhale... Inhale... Exhale... Inhale... Exhale...

After repeating this deep, slow breathing, his heart beat went back to normal. He opened his eyes and lied back down on the mattress. Emptying his head, he closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Hopefully, it would cure with some sleep...

Xian Long Wei had just arrived at his Imperial Courtyard. He kept a cold and indifferent face but once he was alone in his Imperial Chamber, he couldn't stop grinning until his face went stiffed.

Shadow guards: "......" This is really hard to look...

Today's courting was a little successful and he had managed to move Zhan Chen's heart a little. Even if it was a small part of his beloved's heart but still... He had progressed!

He was so happy that he almost couldn't stop from punching the bed in happiness. Luckily, he managed to restraint himself or he would lose a good, big bed. En, this bed was big enough for them to roll around after they were married.

Their wedding night...

Cough! Cough! Cough!

Coughing to keep his mind from deviating to the obscene scenes stored in his head, he sat down and recalled that he had more important thing to be done.

For example, the trash that dare to make his wife to make that kind of miserable face.

"Yi Àn."

A tall man in black appeared in a flash in front of the young Emperor.

"Your Majesty."

"I want you to find out the people that had made my future Empress sad." Long Wei sneered as he tapped his forefinger on the bed. His murderous aura leaked out as he imagined how he would torture that man until he wanted death more than living.

Yi Àn bowed and spoke, "This servant will carry out His Majesty's command." After that, he disappeared in a flash.

"I can help you to get better and live longer. I can grant any wish but only for one time. So, I ask you, what is your wish?"

The man who was reclining against the bedhead said a bit eager, "To live together with that person." A pause. "Can you really grant me a wish?"

The man whose face couldn't be seen sighed and shook his head. "Unfortunately, only one wish and that wish must be for your own gain or another person. There couldn't be entanglement between you two."

Another man whose face looked kind of familiar and yet unfamiliar to Zhan Chen answered after a minute silence, "then, I wish for Fu Zhan Chen to live a better life and always be happy even when I'm not there with him."

Waking up from his sleep, Zhan Chen could feel his face was wet. Reaching out a hand, he wiped his face and whispered silently, "...tears?"

Cry? Did he really cry in his sleep? But, why did he cry?

Did he dream of something important?

But what was it? Why he couldn't remember if he ever dreamed?

Raking his head to remember the dream, but somehow, he seemed to forget what he had dreamed of. It seemed like it was very important but why he could not remember any of his dream.

But, he had a feeling that dream was important... Something or maybe it was about someone important to him. Someone who was dear to him.

Wiping dry his face, Zhan Chen could still feel a glimpse of misery from his heart. Taking a deep breathe, he looked around the dark room that was only lighted by a candle, trying to distract himself from the residue of his miserable but forgotten dream.

Then, a cherry blossom hairpin on the bedside table caught his eyes.

Without thinking, Zhan Chen reached out to grab the hairpin. Seeing the cherry blossom jade hairpin in his hand seemed to ease his uneasy heart. He smiled lightly as he caressed it. This was the first gift Emperor Xian had gave him.

Remembering that day, he was scared out of his mind of the Emperor. But thinking to this day, he wasn't afraid of him any more. Zhan Chen always felt happy when he spent his time with the young Emperor.

Emperor Xian might looked cold and out of reach but he always tried his best to look kind and gentle in front of Zhan Chen. Sometimes, the handsome man would have a face paralysis just so he could maintain a smile on his face.

And sometimes, Emperor Xian would be serious and when it happened, he would look very handsome and Zhan Chen couldn't help but praised the man.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Again, his heart beat faster. From his previous experiences, Zhan Chen took a deep breath and rubbed his chest to ease his heart. Also, he would empty his mind to ease his slightly faster heartbeat.

Thinking it shouldn't be good for his health, Zhan Chen reminded himself to ask his parents later, about this strange thing with his heart.

He wondered if there was something wrong withhim...
