The Lotus And The Peach Blossom Men 11 Close Distance

"Stay still-"s.h.i.+ Mei glared at Chen Wei.

"Do you think I can stay still?" Chen Wei had a hard time gripping the other end of the rope.

"Be patient, why are you so cranky. It will not even harm a strand of your hair."Chen Wei puffed, looking at Xue Huan and Wen Zexi from afar.

"h.e.l.lo, how can I trust you when you tied my arms and covered my mouth the first time we met. And you're doing it again!"s.h.i.+ Mei yelled as she looked at Chen Wei and Gong Yan, successively.

Gong Yan walked towards s.h.i.+ Mei then he cut the rope around s.h.i.+ Mei's hand.

"Blame yourself for treating yourself so highly-"

"How nice of your words, boastful man."

"Oh come on, when did I become a boastful man?"

"Always."s.h.i.+e Mei said, stretching her arms.

"Do you know why I can't treat you nicely at first?"

"It's because you have a nasty att.i.tude."s.h.i.+ Mei answered bluntly.

"Look who's talking."s.h.i.+ Mei turned to Chen Wei.

"What? Are you denying it-"

Chen Wei immediately cut his words when Gong Yan let out a heavy sigh as he darted his grey eyes like a ball of ash to him then to s.h.i.+ Mei. Unknowingly, s.h.i.+ Mei moved her body to the front and straightened her back. But the two glanced at each and both rolled their eyes at one another.

"Is he a silent type of guy?"s.h.i.+ Mei asked out of curiosity, referring to Gong Yan.

"Pffffft-silent type-"Chen Wei sealed his lips once again when Gong Yan looked at them.

s.h.i.+ Mei and Chen Wei remained immovable as they watched Wen Zexi and Xue Huan, moving farther away from them.

Then all of a sudden, Wen Zexi raised a red fabric. Chen Wei looked at s.h.i.+ Mei.

"Who exactly are you? Do we really share the same clan?"Chen Wei paused momentarily.

"Although we're different at most."Chen Wei resumed. He's referring to the Beast Clan, his previous family but that was three years ago. He learned from Wen Zexi that s.h.i.+ Mei possibly put an elixir of heart to Xue Huan and that she's from the Beast Clan. He agreed because their clan was the best when it comes to different elixirs.

"I don't belong to any clan. And if I am an immortal or a cultivator, do you think I'm still here?"s.h.i.+ Mei said out of frustration. Sounds great, if she could cultivate but she's only an ordinary woman who transported in an unknown place.

Gong Yan and Chen Wei glanced at each other.

"She's actually right. She can end our life in one blow but she's not doing it."Chen Wei baffled at the thought of it.

Gong Yan was also confused that he didn't even notice Xue Huan and Wen Zexi already in front of them.

"Why are you doing this to me? Who send you?"Xue Huan uttered, clenching his jaw.

"My lady, I know this is rude but did you put an elixir in Xue Huan's heart?"Wen Zexi carefully asked.

"Goodness, I don't know anything! I am not even aware of that elixir!"

"She's making sense."Gong Yan gave a quick statement, he might not share his thoughts frequently but once he opened his mouth, he's mostly right.

"If she's part of the Beast clan, do you think she's still here with us up to this time. Frankly saying, we can't stand against her if she's a cultivator."Gong Yan explained that made Wen Zexi and Xue Huan immovable for a minute.

"I was puzzled about Xue Huan's condition for I never encountered nor read about it. But now I know, this illness doesn't exist. Because this condition appears only between Xue Huan and the lady. If Xue Huan is away from her, his heart will thump heavily. And if this takes longer, I a.s.sume he's heart will stop eventually."Chen Wei was in awe, placing his palm on his mouth as he slowly looked at s.h.i.+ Mei.

"In the simplest way, his heart condition depends on the distance and the time he's away from the lady."Wen Zexi added, darting his eyes towards s.h.i.+ Mei.

"Now tell me, how can I not accuse you?"Xue Huan firmly stated as s.h.i.+ Mei kept herself silent, absorbing everything she heard.

"How surprising that you're actually mute now."Xue Huan added, scornfully.

"Believe me or not but I don't have any idea about it."s.h.i.+ Mei uttered in her calm voice.

"Really? Then I don't have also a choice but to keep you beside me."

"How long?"s.h.i.+ Mei refused at the idea but she's aware that she could not escape easily now.

"I don't know until my heart doesn't need you anymore."

"What if it takes a year?ten years?twenty years?fifty years?"s.h.i.+ Mei spoke desperately.

"I'll keep you."

"I refuse."

"You have no choice, this is the medicine of what you did to me."

"d.a.m.n it! I told you I don't have anything to do with your condition!"

"My heart will be in bad condition without you in my sight. Can you explain that!"

Gong Yan dropped a sword in front of s.h.i.+ Mei.

"Just end it."Gond Yan added casually as he turned his back, Wen Zexi and Chen Wei followed him.

"Gong Yan, are you sure about this? They might end up killing each other."Wen Zexi muttered, but Gong Yan and Chen Wei turned their heads at Xue Huan and s.h.i.+ Mei then they shook their heads only.

At that time, Xue Huan and s.h.i.+ Mei glared each other, intensifying the atmosphere around them.

"You can't escape from me unless you want your body turned into tiny pieces of dust?" s.h.i.+ Mei gritted her teeth as she picked the sword and drew it towards Xue Huan.

While Xue Huan only looked at s.h.i.+ Mei as he also pulled his sword and placed it under her throat.

"Try me."

s.h.i.+ Mei swiftly moved her body sideways, she spans and twisted her sword clas.h.i.+ng to Xue Huan's blade.

Chen Wei and Wen Zexi literally dropped their jaw while Gong Yan couldn't also hide his surprised look.

"They are both crazy."Wen Zexi couldn't help, it slipped in his tongue right away.

"Crazy was not even the best description of them, I must say that they are completely lunatic."

"I agree."Gong Yan murmured under his breath.

The three men even clapped their hands, watching Xue Huan and s.h.i.+ Mei clashed even more.

"Wonderful!What a great sight! Oh, that's not enough, you need to kill each other."Chen Wei was so excited as if he's watching an entertainment show.

"Excuse me my lords but why are you happy? They are hurting each other, isn't that a bad thing?"

The three men gulped, slowly dropping their eyes to the little boy. They only noticed the little boy now, well in fact, at the very beginning the little boy was already beside them.

"Come on, you don't need to fight with each other."Chen Wei forwarded.

"Right, you can rationally deal with your problem."Wen Zexi followed as Gong Yan approached Xue Huan and s.h.i.+ Mei, knocking their swords snappily.

But the little boy turned his back and shook his head.
