Lan Wang Ji smiled a little at the confused face of his lover. Satisfied with the expression, he continued.
"Having a soulmate is enough."
"Who cares about the crowded, board road? I will stick to my single-log bridge until it's dark end."

MORNING
LAN SECT
Instead of trying so hard, Lan could not improve his Wei's habits of waking up at five. We all know Lan follows the rule of waking up at 5 am and sleeping at 9 pm whereas Wei follows his own rule which was to wake up at 11 am and sleep at 3 am. Although he could not always sleep at 9 because of his dear Wei. That never counts because his Wei comes first. Lan helped Wei to bathe, get dressed, comb his hair, eat and then only did he finish his own needs and started reading his book.
EVENING
JIANG CLAN
"What happened uncle you look so sad?"
Jin Ling asked Jiang Cheng when he noticed his uncle was looking upset and covering it like he was reading something.
Jin Ling has noticed from the time the incident that had happened in the temple his uncle aka Jiang Cheng has started to become gloomy. Not talking much, going on night hunting and coming back with more bruises, cuts and blood. Jin Ling had always seen his uncle as strict, merciless, ruthless, short-tempered, hot-tempered and everything but never gloomy, sad, unhappy. Maybe he had become an expert in hiding those emotions, who knows. Jin Ling had been trying everything to make his uncle at the very least to smile. He could no longer tolerate this and asked. Upon asking, he noticed that his uncle was not responding nor looking up from the book. He tried again.
"Uncle?"
No response. He sighed and went near his uncle and fearfully tapped on his shoulder. His uncle looked up and asked in a low voice which contained everything but no anger, happiness.
"What do you want?"
Jin Ling again sighed and told his uncle,
"Uncle, how about we go for a drink?"
Jin Ling feared because earlier whenever he asked for a drink his uncle has scolded him but now seeing his uncle in a sad, not in a peaceful state of mind, Jin Ling thought he would agree to so he asked. There was another reason why he suggested drinking. It was because when his uncle was drunk he always spoke his heart out. So after making his uncle drunk he will confirm the reason for his sadness.
"Ok. Where to?"
Jin Ling was still thinking when his heart climbed out of his chest after hearing the answer from his uncle. However he did not show it on his face. Jin Ling thought it would be best if they had a drink in his uncle's room nor he would have to carry his uncle and his uncle was twice his size.
