Wei Ying's destroyed heart (Complete) Edited

33: Formal titles or casual titles

A few days later Wei Ying opened his eyes only to see that Lan Zhan was not in their room so he rose and went out for a walk only to come across his students preforming their workouts.

'Master Wei.' Jin Ling called and everyone stopped and hurried over to him. 'Good morning Master Wei.' He bowed happily.

'Master Wei? What happened to Uncle Ying?'

'The same rules as with HanGuang-Jun. During lessons and the like it is formal, in private times it is uncle.' He grinned happily.

'Very well Jin Ling I will agree to this.'

'Good morning everyone .... Wait ...' he looked around seeing JingYi gave him a happy smile and wave which he returned however one person was not there. 'Where is SiZhui? Is he alright, not ill or anything?'

'Ummm.... Well ... I'm sorry to say this but he has a meeting with Master Lan, HanGuang-Jun and Sect Leader Lan.'

'Really? I didn't hear anything from Lan Zhan?' he frowned as he wondered what the matter was ... and why they didn't tell him. Why didn't Lan Zhan tell me ... or wake me up even. 'Well, let's see what you have managed with the drills.' He stood and watched them all move in unison through the drills without even the smallest error. He clapped happily. 'Very good everyone ... now the hard work will begin.'

'Hard ... begins ...' Jin Ling frowned. 'Just what else is there for ....'

'Mother Ying, Father Zhan is looking for you. He got really worried when he came and told us you were not in the room.' SiZhui hurried over to him with a frown.

'Well, I woke and when I realised I was alone, I decided to take a walk.'

'Wei Ying.'

Wei Ying suddenly felt arms wrap around him from behind. 'Good morning Lan Zhan ... was the meeting important?'

'........Yes.'

'Lan Zhan?'

'We will talk about it when we are alone.' He nodded to the whole class standing there listening.

'Oh right.' However, even though he didn't show it, that old fear had suddenly risen in his heart. Was the meeting about me? Did I do something? Or did I not do something I should have?

'Wei Ying, it's alright. There is nothing wrong.'

'What?'

'I can tell you suddenly started to worry.'

'Hmn.' He swallowed then smiled at the students. 'The next step for all of you is to run the drills five times at normal speed and then five times at double speed.'

'......'

When every one of the students just stood there in shock and said nothing Wei Ying turned to Lan Zhan. 'May I use Bichen for a moment?'

Without a word, he handed his sword over as he was rather interested in what he would do.

'Like this.' He walked to the clearing and after taking a few deep breaths, he ran the drills at double speed without any faults. When he finished the last jump and landed on one knee, the sword held firmly straight out before him as if he had just cut down an enemy, he looked at the students as he stood up. 'This is double speed. I want you to end up running this drill as perfectly as you do at normal speed.'

'Wow.....' SiZhui said as he finally managed to take a deep breath. 'That was magnificent. It was like you were dancing.'

'Wei Ying, who taught you these moves?'

'I taught myself. From when I was first taken in by ... I have been watching everyone fighting and I picked all the best bits and used them to come up with this fighting style however, most of the Changes is from the in-between movements. Foot placements, breathing times and fluidity.' He watched Lan Zhan walk over and take his chin then lean in close so he could whisper so none of the students would hear him.

'Wei Wei, you truly are so very beautiful when you move like that ... don't tempt me in front of the juniors like this.' But still he kissed Wei Ying.

The students blushed but they would have to become use to Lan Zhan arriving out of no where and kissing Wei Ying. It was not often they were not together, but from then on, if Wei Ying was alone, Lan Zhan was not far behind looking for his kiss.

'Father Zhan ... are you ever going to stop doing that in front of Mother Ying's students?'

'No.' Lan Zhan gave a half smile. 'If I want to kiss him, I will do so.'

'So, when do I find out what the meeting was about?'

'How about we leave the children to run the drills and we go and have a chat?'

'Okay, take Uncle Ying ... Master Wei away so we can concentrate on the drills please.' Jin Ling said as he turned his back only to see SiZhui give him a half smile. 'You slipped up yourself so don't go smiling at my slip up.'

'I made no errors.'

'You came running over calling Mother Ying and Father Zhan! We are in class.'

'I have not started my class yet, I was sent to find my Mother Ying by my Father Zhan.'

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan smiled at the interaction. 'How about this both of you. When you are inside the arena boundaries it is formal, outside is casual.'

'Any time we are out side the boundaries of the arena?'

'Well .... We will work out the rest some other time.' Lan Zhan put Bichen on his back then took Wei Ying's hand and led him back to their room. 'It's nothing bad, I promise ... it's just that Uncle has sent messages out and now we have all the replies ... it is not what I was expecting at all.' He sighed heavily.

'What messages, what replies?'

'Well, on brothers orders, uncle sent out requests on who would turn up to our wedding and agree to stand in the reception for us ... and well .... Oh Wei Ying, I'm really sorry for this .....'

Wei Ying felt his heart stutter horribly and that voice in his head began to call out again. That damned voice he had managed to quieten for a while had just started to yell again.
