Chapter 10: Mid-Length Festival
At mid-length festival
Yi Ze: Princess is there anything else that you want?
Renyu: No! But What about you? I feel that you have something bothering you that you want to talk about.
Yi Ze: Me? I don't.
Renyu: Okay! Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. ( She turns to leave)
Yi Ze: Wait!
Renyu: What?
Yi Ze: Renyu! Is it Okay if I call you Renyu?
Yi Ze: Of course! Along with I can keep calling you Yi Ze.
Yi Ze: (Smiles) Of course. So Renyu, I guess you have heard that our Yu Glass was stolen, so I wanted to ask you if you have anything to do with it.
Renyu: You think I stole it?
Yi Ze: It's just an assumption, but as long as you say that you didn't steal it, I'll believe you.
Renyu: I didn't. Yi Ze is that what you have been meaning to ask me?
Yi Ze: Ye...yes! Just that.
Renyu: I didn't steal it. (Thinking) What the hell am I doing? I shouldn't lie to him.
Yi Ze: Okay ( thinking) I hope so.
Renyu: so let's go check out this ice Berry cake?
Yi Ze:Okay!
At Lize Domain
Xing'er: Weixian! Weixian!
Weixian: What do you want?
Xing'er: Weixian, I was hoping that we could spend the mid-length festival together.
Weixian: Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't celebrate festivals, I can't go out with you today.
Xing'er: It's okay, I knew that you would refuse to with me, giving this excuse. So I prepared a plan B.
Weixian: You mean?
Xing'er: I mean, I already figured out that if I ask you to go out and celebrate the festival with me, you would give excuses, so I decided to bring the festival here at Lize Domain.
Weixian: (surprised) You...
Xing'er: Brother Wei stops talking, just come with me.
Xing'er drags Weixian's hand and brings him outside to see what she had prepared.
Xing'er: Brother Wei look, what do you think? I decorated your Li Ze palace, and although I had some help from the servants and maid, I did most of the work. Brother Wei, how is it? Do you like it?
Weixian: You..... Xing'er! What nonsense is this?
Xing'er: (surprised) What? It's not nonsense, it's the decoration for the mid-length festival. Brother Wei, I know that in the past, you were usually alone, you never had any fun, and you kept your distance from people. So.....I decided that since fate has brought us together, and made us soulmates, I should do something for you. Brother Wei look! It'snicee berry cake,(she raises the cake and gives it to him, but he didn't collect it, rather he stared at her angrily) Oh! You don't like this?, Okay, try this one, it's lotus cake ( she raises it again, and Weixian refuses to collect) You don't like this either? Oh! Okay, let me check for another one. Brother Wei try this...(she stretches her hand to give him the cake, and Wei Xian angrily knocked it out of her hands)
Weixian: (who has been trying to hold the anger Inside of him) Lu Xing'er! What exactly do you want?
Wei Xian: Xing'er What exactly do you want from me?
Xing'er: Not..... Nothing! I just wanted to make you happy.
Wei Xian: I don't want you to make me happy, I'm used to being alone. Now let me make things clear between us, we are not soulmates, and neither are we fated. So I don't understand the nonsense that you are talking about. And please in the future, don't ever call me or come to me to spout nonsense. Because I might not be so courteous. Besides I don't eat cakes, so eat them all, and celebrate this party yourself. ( He leaves)
Xing'er:(in a crying tone) Brother Wei! Come back, I didn't purposely annoy you, I'm sorry.
AT JADE PALACE
( A sound comes from Ren Yu's room)
Xie Qi: Phoenix Youuu.....(screams) Youuuu... Master Wei...Youuu.., why. are you here?
Weixian:(surprised) You...you know me?
Xie Qi: I....(thinking) Could it be that he didn't see me phoenix while we were peeping at him that day? Whatever, I'll just pretend like I don't know. (to Wei Xian) I don't know you.
Wei Xian: Then how did you know my name?
Xie Qi: Well...Phoenix has already described you, and I know that she only has three male friends, which are Prince of Yan Yan Xin whom I know very well welland the god of love. Soo. I just guessed that you are the god of love since Princess Yu and Prince Yi Ze are at the festival now.
Weixian: Oh! Did she go out with Yi Ze?
Xie Qi: Yes! They went to spend the mid-length festival together.
Weixian: Oh! I see. ( Thinking) Not right, why do I feel angry, I feel suffocated, I even want to fight.
Xie Qi: (Thinking) Is he jealous? Could it be that he is jealous of Yi Ze and Phoenix hanging out together? ( To Weixian) Don't take it the wrong way, I think that phoenix only agreed to this Forhank Yi Ze for his help during your illness.
Wei Xian: Really?
Xie Qi; Yes!
Wei Xian:(Thinking) At least I feel at ease now. ( To Xie Qi) What about you? Aren't you going to the festival?
Xie Qi: No I don't like festivals.
Wei Xian: (thinking) That makes two of us. (To Xie Qi) So! How about I keep you company?
Xie Qi: What? No! It's inappropriate.
Wei Xian: Of course Not, I'm just gonna keep you company until Renyu comes. What's inappropriate about that?
Xie Qi: I don't think it's a good idea.
Weixian: How is it not? (Noticing Xie Qi's reluctance Okay, Since you are not willing, I'll just wait for her somewhere else.
Xie Qi: It's not that I'm not willing, it's just...
Weixian: I understand, you're just a mere maid, you can't be seen hanging out with a god. But Xie Qi I don't mind if you're a maid or not, to me everyone is a human whether servant or immortal So I hope that you can also think well of yourself
Xie Qi: I understand. Thank you. By the way, please follow me to Princess Yu's chamber, so that you can wait for her there.
Weixian: Okay! (They both entered Wenren's bedroom).
Xie Qi: Master Wei! Please wait here, for now, phoenix will be back soon.
Weixian: Okay!
