407 Youâre The Best
Previously on the lower floor of the bungalow.
Li Mo glanced up at the room where Bai Ying hadnât come down since last night, and the Crown Prince recounted his frustration at not being able to do anything to make the young man forget about his trauma, it was a very heavy blow for him, of course, from the Crown Princeâs explanation, less more Li Mo understood the situation.
Li Mo lifted his teacup, sipping it slowly.
âYour Majesty, it is said, the most effective way to get rid of a bad dream is to give him another sweet dream, until, slowly, or quickly, he will forget the bad dream, as if it had never happened, but, this, must be done as soon as possible, because if itâs waiting for too long, the nightmare will become a part of himâ
Luo Xiang who was lost in thought turned his head, listening to Li Moâs words quite seriously. Until he understood what it meant.
âHmmâ
........
In the afternoon.
Luo Xiang took Bai Yingâs hand who finally came out of his room to enjoy the fresh air outside. See the beautiful blue sky view with many birds of various shapes and bright colours.
.....
Their voices could be heard in the distance.
âYour Majesty, look at that bird, what a beautiful colourâ Bai Ying exclaimed cheerfully.
How the boy forgot his sorrow so quickly, he turned back into a very excited Bai Ying.
He would have run to see a bird perched on a tree not far in front of them if not for the Crown Princeâs hand to hold him.
âYing Yingâ
âThey are so cute, oh, suddenly Ying misses Xiao Qe and Xiao Mei so muchâ
âWhy are you out of nowhere thinking of those two stinky creatures?â
Bai Ying turned his head with sharp eyes.
âYour Majesty, they are not stinky, just, rarely batheâ
âWho will bathe them?â
Bai Ying thought.
âUm, Ying doesnât know either, whoâs going to bathe them, hmh? They must be very naughty, playing in the valley until they forgot to go home, those two ugly creatures.â
Luo Xiang shook his head, the change in the childâs character was indeed terrible.
âYou said they didnât smell bad, but theyâre ugly, heh, better ask old man Lee to chop them into soupâ
Bai Ying squeaked.
âYour Majesty, donât do that, theyâre not good to eatâ
âSays who?â
Bai Ying thought.
âEh, B-because, theyâre stinky and are uglyâ
Luo Xiang refrained from laughing.
âOh, then brother will ask old man Lee to bathe them, dress them nicely and then cut them into soup.â
Bai Ying squeaked again.
âYour Majestyâ
And Luo Xiang really likes to tease the boy, he is so expressive, itâs really nice to tease him.
Without realizing it, the two of them walked until the sun slowly back to its place.
âThen, what does Ying Ying want for dinner?â asked the Crown Prince.
Bai Ying thought hard, he is really hungry since last night, he didnât think about it but he does feel so hungry now.
âEm, old lady Ne Maâs chicken soup is delicious, Ying er wants to eat it again later.â
Luo Xiang smiled, pinching Bai Yingâs nose exasperatedly.
âI know that what my Ying Ying likes must be everything that is so delicious.â
Luo Xiang smiles, grabs Bai Yingâs soft fingers and kissed them, pulled the young manâs thin waist holds him so close and even tickled him, making the kid excited.
âAch Your Majesty, please watch your handâ
âHehehe I canât help it, my pretty Concubine is really tempting and so refreshing, what can I do?â
Bai Ying canât help just stay so close to the big man and walk side by side, they really enjoy the nice weather.
âHehehe Your Majestyâ
The young man laugh until he fell silent as he remembered something.
He stopped in his movement.
âYing whatâs wrong?â Luo Xiang asked.
The young man looked at him for a while, there was so much he wanted to ask but the Crown Prince thought he knew what he wanted to know.
He pulled Bai Yingâs hand back to continue his way.
âThat girl canât talk, canât even say a word, itâs useless forcing her to say anything about Huo Liâ
Bai Ying held the Crown Princeâs hand.
âYour Majestyâ
Luo Xiang turned his body to look at the youth who was looking at him with a pair of hopeful eyes.
âYing Yingâ
âShe is very poor Your Majesty, Yingâer can feel that she has something very sad in her heart, but, she has no choice and canât say anything, Ying thought, she wants to say something through the scales she left behind back then, that girl, was not an ordinary human Your Majesty, Your Majesty knows that right?â
âOf course, I know, but she is helpless without Huo Li, and she doesnât want to say anything at all, Su Lang and Ge Lu have already asked the city soldiers to help track him down, Elder Hei Hu is also looking for him, weâll just have to wait for news.â
âYing, can you help her to talk?â
Hearing Bai Yingâs words, Luo Xiang turned his head with big eyes. He understood what the boy meant.
âHeh, no wayâ Luo Xiang let go of his hand and turned his back from the boy.
Bai Ying grabbed the Crown Princeâs palm back.
âYour Majestyâ
âThat creature is very dangerous, if it really is the incarnation of a red bird, it could absorb your energy, we wonât take that risk Yingâ
âYour Majesty, I have a lot of it, Your Majesty sees for yourself how Er Wang and Xiao Wu canât even absorb Yingâerâs energy, let alone that red bird.â
Luo Xiang pulled his hand away from Bai Ying, looking at the young man sharply.
âThe element of the red bird is fire, and according to Elder Yi that element is very strong, it can paralyze you even if Ying Ying has two other elements, brother doesnât want to take that riskâ
Bai Ying looked at the Crown Prince for a moment, looked at him coldly, then lowered his hand with a languid face.
âHeh, who told Ying er to be so weak, that His Majesty doesnât even trust Ying er in the slightest.â
Hearing Bai Yingâs tone and his words, Luo Xiang stuttered, he tried to grab the young manâs hand back, he might have hurt his feelings.
âEh Ying Ying, thatâs not what big brother meant.â
Bai Ying brushed off the Crown Princeâs hand and continued walking, he took a deep breath.
âHeh, Ying really such a lousyâ
Luo Xiang pulled his lips, the kid, really gave him a headache.
âThis kidâ he finally caught up with Bai Ying and grabbed his hand.
âOkay, fine, brother will let Ying Ying communicate with her.â
Bai Yingâs eyes widened with excitement.
âReally, Your Majesty?â The young man hugged the Crown Princeâs hand again sweetly.
âHeheh Your Majesty is the bestâ
Luo Xiang was indeed the weakest in dealing with his concubine who occasionally sulked, it could become a big problem later.
âYeah yeah, indeed His Highness the Crown Prince is very kind, especially to his very mischievous concubineâ
Bai Ying chuckled, the two continuing their way towards the back of the Li family mansion compound, where they temporarily put A Er in an unused warehouse.
âYour Majesty, a Er is indeed the incarnation of a vermilion bird, right? But, why is she so submissive to Huo Li? Then who is Huo Li?â Bai Ying asked all the way.
.....
Luo Xiang shrugged his shoulders.
âI donât know if a Er is really the incarnation of the vermilion bird, she supposes to not submit to anyone, and Huo Li, he has enormous strength but a very cruel heart, Brother heard he sacrificed half of his men for trainingâ
Bai Ying nodded.
âThatâs right Your Majesty, when Ying er was taken captive by him, that person grudgingly killed his own maid, but, why did he do it?â
âDo you need a reason to be crazy?â
âHeh, and heâs still out there, because of Ying, that guy has already recovered from his injuries and even got Yingâer energy, Ying is really lousyâ Bai Ying scowled.
The Crown Prince raised his hand to pinch Bai Yingâs frowning chin.
âWho dares to say this great concubine of mine is lousy? How could my Ying Ying be lousy?â
The young man smiled, the Crown Princeâs face at that time was like freshwater that made his chest so cool, just looking at him could make the restlessness in his heart fade away, tightly embraced by the Crown Princeâs arms.
âHehehe Your Majesty is the only one who said Ying er is not bad, in this world Your Majesty is the best with Ying erâ
Luo Xiang couldnât hide his smile, really excited to see Bai Yingâs cute face, felt like hugging him and pinching him to his heartâs content.
âThis kid, did you just know that?â
Bai Ying laughed until all his eyes disappeared in it.
âHehehe already know thatâ
