Lu Cang's Adventure

Lu Cang

Full moon in the winter.

The bright light of the round and cold heavenly ball illuminated the silver world, outshone the twinkling stars on the black jet sky, a complete opposite of the snow covered world.

Under the brilliant light, a shadow, donned in the white as snow robe, lightly stepped on the soft and cold snow as if floating. His unearthly splendor beauty could put the proud full moon in shame. His black and long silky hair waterfalling behind his back to add his stunning charm to the fullest.

This incomparable beauty close to divinity, who else but the mysterious Emperor of Datong, Emperor Jing Zong himself.

In the highest of spirit he always had been lately since returning from Hangzhou's inspection, --- an inspection as a cover for his real purpose of retrieving his lover, he lifted his eyes to stare at the sky. Smiling at the full moon, --- good things seemed to happen on a full moon nights, his mind already flew to his lover. Didn't want to waste any more precious moment, he quickened his joyous steps.

The moment he pushed open the door, his heart sank upon the sight of the abyss room. He couldn't help but be in a panic-stricken state.

Where is Lu Cang?

The dark room was awfully familiar for him for a period of time. He drowned in this abyss of darkness just a single month ago. A depressing dark room without Lu Cang's presence.

"What took you so long?" Pair of cold hand took his whole person into a tight embrace from behind. Pleasantly surprised, he tried to turn his head to look at his beloved. But Lu Cang didn't allow him to see his face by burying his face on Jing's broad and firm back.

"Cang?"

"No! Don't look..."

"Don't look what?"

Lu Cang tightening his embrace instead of answering. Made Jing perplexed to no end.

"Cang?"

"Don't look at me... I... I must look weird... With my short hair and all..."

Chuckling for the ridiculous reason, Jing forcefully turned Lu Cang to stand in front of him.

A month ago, Lu Cang cut his hair in attempt to break free from Jing. He also vowed that he would remain single for the rest of his life. Jing absolutely would never let him go. As if he would give up and just go back after go out of his way to fetch Lu Cang all the way to Hangzhou.

"Yeah... Indeed... It is regrettable to have your hair this short... But you look good in this hair style. You look fresh and much more younger."

Lu Cang pouted, though it was only in a blink of an eye, and the room was dark, Jing still could see it and couldn't restrain his laughter.

"You are just teasing me..."

"Why is the room so dark? And... Where have you been? You smell awfully sweet..."

Lu Cang didn't answer, instead, he was sniffing on Jing's body. Afterwards, he walked to sit on his bed without saying a single word.

Jing frowned for his weird behavior. The Lu Cang that Jing had known all along absolutely would never sulk or pout so openly like today. Surely he was extremely adorable at this moment, however, Jing was more curious for this unusual Lu Cang.

"What is it? Why do you look so down all of sudden?" Without asking Lu Cang, Jing opened the window to invite the moonlight to come and share its brilliance.
