Wei Ying's destroyed heart (Complete) Edited

30: SiZhui manipulates the situation without lies.

Lan Zhan waking Wei Ying only enough to feed him three times a day.

Lan Zhan washing Wei Ying and dressing him in Cloud Recesses robes every morning.

Lan Zhan playing their song three times a day.

Lan Zhan holding Wei Ying as he slept every night.

Lan Zhan laying there in the morning watching Wei Ying sleep.

Lan Zhan carrying Wei Ying to the cool pool for healing.

Lan Zhan carrying Wei Ying to the bunnies for sunlight.

Lan Zhan kissing and holding Wei Ying when ever and where ever he pleased.

Over time, as he began to regain his strength and heal, Wei Ying was able to stay awake most of the day.

Everything in the Cloud Recesses was running smoothly ....... Until!

One morning SiZhui went to XiChen feeling sad.

'SiZhui, what is it? I've rarely seen you like this.' He barely got the words out before the young man covered his face with his sleeve and sniffing could be heard. 'Tell me what is wrong?'

'Please .... Uncle XiChen .... Make Father WangJi let me see Mother Ying.' SiZhui broke down even as Jin Ling came running in.

'SiZhui ... what's wrong?' Jin Ling knelt beside his friend even as his heart twisted.

XiChen glanced at his Uncle then rolled his eyes at the look of discomfort on his face. Was no one but him willing to face things straight on? Take a breath and .... Just do not sigh aloud. 'Okay, I will go and see him when I have finished talking to Master Lan.'

'....' At XiChen's words both boys looked between the pair of adults before scurrying away.

'Thank you Uncle XiChen.' After SiZhui and Jin Ling were far enough from the hall, they stopped and looked at each other as SiZhui wiped his eyes. 'I ...'

'Right, I think your uncle is about to have a little go at his uncle for not even opening his mouth.' Jin Ling bit his lip for a moment before the grin broke out. 'I didn't think you would go and act that well.'

'Please, you are not the only one now ... as you now know, I use to be a Wen. I remember Wen Qing putting on an act now and then to try to make Mother Ying give up drinking. Often holding up her needles right in front of his eyes.' He again hid his face behind his sleeve when a thought came to him.

'Relax; you were not lying at all. You didn't break any of your sect rules.'

'I know but ...... Father WangJi is going to punish me some way ... I just know it.'

'How?'

'I don't know ... hand stands while writing the rules .... But more than likely for something like this ..... he may even .... Go so far as to .....' He felt his heart twist painfully as the thought came to him.

'What?' Jin Ling grew nervous at what might happen. He knew HanGuang-Jun was always giving harsh punishments for breaking the rules .... But just who painful would he make a punishment if it was worse than writing the rules while doing handstands?

'Make me sit in the middle of the rabbits for a day.'

Jin Ling stood there looking at his friend with his mouth hanging open in shock before he managed to speak. 'How is that a punishment? It sounds like a great day. You are not even afraid of them.' He almost yelled in frustration.

'No, it's really not a great day. It would be fine if .... He didn't send others to walk past at intervals and they all coo over how cute I look surrounded by bunnies .... Waving to me as if .... Ahhhhhh.' He sat on a large rock. 'I'm done for. It's been eight years since I had to do that ... it was so embarrassing.' He stopped when he watched Jin Ling fall to the ground laughing happily. 'Hey!'
