Chapter 1

“Father, say it one more ti me!” Said Ling Shuang while

creasing her brows and glaring furiously.　

Being looked at like that by his own beloved daughter, Ling Xin
Lian couldn’t help but cower a bit.　　

“I said,” He braced up his fatherly power, clearing his throat and

said. “Father when young, had a very good friend. He bought
a ranch in Guanwai1. Also, he built a family and has two sons.
When we were young, we had agreed on...”
“That is the antenatal betrothal thing, isn’t it?”　

“It is good that you understand!” Ling Xin Lian obviously

loosened a sigh. “Being a man, most important virtue is to
 4 Report
keep one’s word. What’s more, Brother Yun has sent a
letter, soon he will send a party to escort the bride2, so...”
“Want me to marry?”　

“Exactly.” At long last he could completely explain, Ling Xin Lian

made a haha laugh.　

“You are crazy!” Ling Shuang without the least bit of holding
back scolded him. “Quick write a letter to tell your brother,
the joking remarks of youthful days do not regard as a
serious thing. Tell his son, no need to come.”

“How could it be?” Ling Xin Lian forced worriedly. “After all, a
daughter sooner or later must get married, Brother Yun
was refined and elegant when he was young, his son ought
to be a giant among men3. Marrying to him will not bring
disgrace
to you. Besides, the Yun family in Guanwai, is categorized as
the first or second wealthy landlord. You will not be
suffering.”

“The problem is Guanwai!” Ling Shuang gritted her teeth while

reminded her father. “Wild and barren land. You want your
daughter go and be suffer at there?”

“Not that wild la4!” Ling Xin Lian subconsciously waved his
hand. “Brother Yun has mentioned in his letter, that that
place’s once a month’s market, is extremely fun, you
definitely will love it.”

“Once a month?” Ling Shuang roared.

 Then the other days of the month, what should she do? It
shouldn’t be to make her take care of the grazing land packed
livestocks! Or maybe she could only wide eyes stare at small
eyes with her husband? Wouldn’t it be boring to death!

No, even if she was beaten to death she still did not want to

marry. Being accustomed to Jiangnan’s bustling life, how could

she be
attributed to the pedestrian? Killing her would be far better.

“In short...” Ling Xin Lian braced himself up. “Time is very easy
to pass. Other’s family… Other’s family’s daughter Wang
Zhaojun5 didn’t she go out of the frontier pass and
blended with the foreigner, it must be for the rest of
her life, yet never heard her cried out of loneliness.”
 This obviously a failed example, he could see Ling Shuang’s face
had seemed to be more grave and stern.　　

“Marriage matters basically are the parents’ decision,

matchmaker as to say it roughly. Father already agreed
with the other family, you also don’t wish your father
break his promise with others, right?!” Ling Xin Lian
resolutely used
several methods. “Shuang’r, you just have to obediently
become the bride, all the other things father will certainly
organize it properly.”

“Humph! All these things aren’t they to be directed against

Bo Yu?”

“Impudent!” Ling Xin Lian irritatedly said. “As a girl do you

know shame or not. Actually called out a name of a man.”

“Father clearly knows that me and Bo Yu are a harmonious

couple...
”　　

“Enough!” Ling Xin Lian shouted. “Do not mention that Xiao’s
Family brat who harbored evil intentions. Do you really think
that he likes you ? What he wants is our status as the
wealthiest in Jiangnan, what he loves is what you carry on
your back meaning each and every wealth.”

“So that’s what you dislike, it is his unworthy reputation of

social standing.” Ling Shuang’s reply was clever and eloquent.

“Maybe!” Ling Xin Lian already ti red of debati ng with his

daughter regarding that flippant and insincere brat’s goodness
or badness.

“Anyway, this matter has been decided. You just need

to get ready for your marriage, that’s all.”

As long as he married his daughter off, it could be counted as a

get something done once and for all method.
 Seeing her father leave with a flick of his sleeve6, Ling Shuang
gritted her teeth, pondered deeply for a way to solve this.

Heaven had pity on her, letting her father tell her in advance, thus
she knew about this news. Now definitely wouldn’t go as

far as to have no time to deal with it7, foolishly forced by her

father to the bridal sedan chair.

Humph! Humph! Father, don’t think that I will obediently ride the
bridal sedan chair. Now that you don’t respect my choice of in-law,
then you have to mentally prepare to lose face. She would
never
marry to Guanwai. 　　

What she had to do now, was to find someone to marry in her

place! This person not only needed to be able to brace the long
distance journey from Jiangnan to Guanwai without being found
out, but also able to make father and his Yun Brother to go beyond
great disgrace!
 ※※※※　　

“Miss, you called for me?” Shi Jie Yi respectfully asked.

Saying goodbye to her father and mother in a simple way, in

addition, sent off with drums and gongs beating throughout
the journey, Ling Shuang was counted as stylishly married off. And
now the bridal sedan chair had left Jiangnan, halfway enroute to
Guanwai.

As a servant in Ling’s family, Shi Jie Yi quite sympathized with this

Young Lady.　　

A pampered and spoiled daughter since childhood Young Lady, all

of a sudden married to an uncivilized Guanwai, being unfamiliar with
the place and the people, but not the least resisting and crying
to
vent, it truly had put her into great inconvenience.　　

But Young Lady seemed like she had a grudge against her father.
Amongst the servants to accompany her, surprisingly she only had
him and one personal maidservant. Shi Jie Yi didn’t know whether
this was good or bad, if by any chance Young Lady got into trouble in
the husband’s family, he wouldn’t be able to protect her!　
 And also the new in-laws, it looks as if, was unlikely to treat the
Young Lady well. After all, the in-law didn’t personally come for the
wedding ceremony, only dispatched people to fetch the bride, as
if
he didn’t take this marriage seriously.　　

If it was him, he would have never been absent for his own
wedding ceremony! Shi Jie Yi inwardly muttered.　　

“Xiao Shi Zi, say, I treat you well or not?” Dismissing her left
and right servants away, Ling Shuang gently asked. 　　

The bridal sedan chair had left Jiangnan, Ling Shuang already had
no alternati ve, could only exert the last device, that was the
conspicuous man in front of her. In all fairness, Xiao Shi Zi was the
best option to replace her in the marriage. However, everything
was fine except for one small defect8, that was, he was of a man.
 But now was not the time to mind about that! She couldn’t find
someone who was willing to substitute for her in the marriage. Also,
Jiangnan to Guanwai was fortresses and mountains that expanded
for a thousand miles, if there wasn’t anyone with a similar profile
to replace her, how could she fool all the people who accompanied
her in the marriage procession? And presently Shi Jie Yi was all she
could find so far. Whether it was body figure or appearance, all had
about
seventy percent similarity with her.　　

At present, she could only think of this way, to let Shi Jie Yi replace
her in the bridal sedan chair. Only if he took her place, only then
people wouldn’t find out midway that the bride had disappeared.
She also would have plentiful of time to escape to faraway places
with Bo
Yu. 　　

Fortunately, this was not at all a very difficult matter. That little
servant was foolish and often in a daze. The character also was very
honest and kindhearted. Not worried to be unable to deceive him.
“You treat me very well Miss.” This was the fact.　
 However, he actually didn’t like to be called as ‘Xiao Shi Zi’, it was
Ling Shuang who helped him to choose this nickname. Even if Shi Jie
Yi disliked it, yet he didn’t have the qualifications to not accept. But,
he still had a slight objection. His figure was not tall, also not manly
whatsoever, but the task that normal men could do, he also
not
couldn’t do, why shouldn’t I call him ‘Xiao Shi Zi’?　　

Didn’t know why, ever since he came to Ling’s family to work, his
works were miscellaneous. The things others didn’t want to do,
they would dump onto him. But after the Young Lady saw him, he
was transferred to her side. His work had become so much easier,
even fetching the water he also no longer needed to do. Every day
he only
needed to sweep the yard! 　　
 “That’s good.” Ling Shuang displayed a smile. “You know
about this marriage matter, this is not what I willingly
agreed to, right?”

“Indeed!”

“Then, Xiao Shi Zi.” Ling Shuang warmly asked. “Do you want
to help me?”

“What… What help?” Shi Jie Yi of course had a slight fright.

“You help me marry to Guanwai!”　　

Everything had been calculated by Ling Shuang. Xiao Shi Zi helped

her to marry to Guanwai, then she went with her brought
along maidservant to rendezvous with Bo Yu. Out from the house, if
there
was no one to attend to her, it wouldn’t do. 　

Before she rode in the bridal sedan chair, she had taken valuable
pearls and numerous ornaments and handed it over to Bo Yu, so
that after they eloped, their living was not to go so far as to
poverty- stricken with no one to rely on. The reason of the poor
and lowly
husband and wife’s grief, she clearly understood.　　
 Waiting until everything became calm and steady, after several
years had passed then returned home, father and mother should
be weeping bitter tears, wholeheartedly gratefully welcomed her
back. Didn’t mind what she had done, after all, they only had her
as the
one and only treasured daughter.　　

“Miss!” Shi Jie Yi was shocked, almost couldn’t properly articulate

his words. “I… I am a man.”　　

“I know.” Ling Shuang without any care held his hand. “It won’t
be a problem. You and I look alike. Our appearance also is a
little bit similar, it won’t be impossible to hide the truth
from
them.”　　
 “How could it be possible to hide it?” Shi Jie Yi raised his
voice. “On the wedding night, the husband will
immediately
find out that I am a man.”　　

“At that time, I have already left for long, to a safe

place.” Ling Shuang softened her voice to plead. “Xiao Shi Zi, I
beg you, you surely know, I already have my beloved
person, how can
I marry to another person?”　　

“What’s more…” She bit her lips, honestly confessed. “I… also
cannot marry to other people anymore! I already belonged
to Young Master Xiao.”

Shi Jie Yi gasped in surprise, his speech became hum and haw.
“This…this…”　　

“Xiao Shi Zi.” Ling Shuang grasped his hand. “You have to help
me. You definitely must help me. I heard that Guanwai’s
people are extremely cruel. If by chance they know that
I’m absolutely not intact, don’t know how they would treat
me. I cannot marry.”

“But… But me replacing, definitely could be seen through.”

Shi Jie Yi said in fright.　　

Guanwai people’scruelty, not only Young Lady feared, he too was

also extremely afraid. This time being selected by his Young lady to
be one of her dowry, he was also sighing in resentment for a long
time. But a person under the eaves couldn’t help but lower their
head. Who told him to sell himself to be the Ling’s family’s slave!

“Even if it got exposed, they still wouldn’t be able to

do anything to you!” Ling Shuang did her utmost to persuade.
“You are being forced, they definitely will understand. In
addition, they absolutely wouldn’t dare to make it widely
known. The daughter of a distinguished family from Jiangnan
who comes w i t h t h e v a s t a n d m i g h t y p r o c e s s i o n t o
m a r r y , i s unexpectedly a man, how could they dare to stir
up trouble
and make it known?”　　

“But…” Shi Jie Yi knew by heart that this was inappropriate, but
he couldn’t win an argument with her. “Wouldn’t I end in an
awfully miserable state?”　　

“Never. They know that making things hard for you will
give them nothing.” Ling Shuang spoke bewitchingly. “Xiao Shi
Zi, I have been treating you kindly these days, you
absolutely
have to agree to help me, right?” 　　
 Shi Jie Yi bit down his lips, didn’t say a word. Now he finally
understood, why this Young Lady treated him much better than
the
rest, all for the sake of today. 　　

“In short, you only need to help me delay for a period of

time, don’t let the matchmaker and the butler find out
that you are not me. I have ordered them, may not come
close to me, it will intimidate them. At the time all of you
arrive at Guanwai, Xiao Young Master and I would already be
in a safe
place, nobody would find us.”　　
 “Ah, right!” Ling Shuang fished out from her luggage a seemingly
worth considerably pearl bracelet. “Xiao Shi Zi, this is for you.
When you get found out, if Yun family chases you out, this
could let you live without worry.”

“Miss…” Shi Jie Yi was touched a bit. “I…”

“Just take it!” Ling Shuang squeezed the bracelet into his hand.

A little charity definitely was a must. Only by this means, so that

she could make other people agree to sell their life for her. This little
method, Ling Shuang understood thoroughly. Moreover, this was
merely an insignificant hand chain only, not at all worth much
money. This fool didn’t know the truth, still foolishly touched by her.
What an idiot!
 Wasted his equally matched with her beautiful oval face, truly a
waste!
“Tonight Ju’r and I will leave.”　　

“Sister Ju also leaves?” Shi Jie Yi became nervous. “Then…

Isn’t it just me alone to go toYun family?”　　

“The less people know about your status the better.

Like this, you will be able to survive this journey.” Ling
Shuang reasoned her analysis. “You don’t need to worry, no
one could see through you. Our figures are similar, voice
also very much alike. This period of time, you didn’t do
any heavy manual work, hands have become very delicate
and fine, you also obediently never basked in the sunlight,
whole person has become very fair, dressing up as a girl will
be completely convincing. Definitely wouldn’t be found out.”
 Now Shi Jie Yi finally knew, Young Lady’s scheming was
unexpectedly this deep. Since earlier she had planned to make
the peach take the place of plum. Should have known from
the
beginning, no one without cause or reason would treat him nice,
he was such an idiot!

“But…” Shi Jie Yi attempted to make the final struggle. “The

husband finds out I am a male, definitely will be furious to
the extreme…”　　

Angry to death, he deserves it! Ling Shuang said inwardly. Who

told that Yun Tian Yang not to open his eyes widely. An uneducated
chap from Guanwai, wishfully hoped to marry her, an educated noble
lady from a distinguished family. He deserved to be angered to
death!　　

The best if the entire Guanwai knew that his bride was a male. Let
him lose his face to the utmost. From then on turned his face
from
father, didn’t come to find her again.　　

“No way.” Ling Shuang smilingly convinced him. “From what

father said, Yun Tian Yang is a scholar and courteous person.
Wouldn’t vent out his anger on an unlucky person.”　　
“Is that true?” Shi Jie Yi suspiciously asked.　　

He knew his chance to refuse was little, couldn’t help but wish
that what Young Lady had said was the truth. So he would be
unlikely to
go as far as to die an unsightly death.　　

“Absolutely is the truth!” Ling Shuang pledged in all sincerity to

assure. “Father has always doted on me, how could he
possibly choose a very bad husband for me.”
 ‘Then you should just straightf orwardly marry!’ Shi Jie Yi
complained inwardly.　　

“You know my and Xiao Young Master’s feeling are deep

and profound. Just said that father had sought a better
family to be my husband, I still won’t be willing to abandon
him. We have known each other since we were small, he is
not a bad
person. Xiao Shi Zi, you help me, alright?”

This line of speech was said with a revelation of one’s true feelings,
Shi Jie Yi was truly helpless to refuse, but…

“We can have sister Ju to replace!” Shi Jie Yi jollily had a

sudden idea.　　

“She needs to take care of me.” A straightforward line to vote

down. “I need Ju’r! Moreover, Ju’r truthfully is little bit too
sturdy.”
“Ah…”　　

This was out of courteous speech. Actually, Ju’r was not only taller
by half a head than Ling Shuang, her body also big and round, the
frame obviously sturdy and brawny. Ling Shuang was a person who
cared so much for her appearance, how could it be possible to let
this kind of person to replace her in this marriage, damaged
her
reputation as Jiangnan number one beauty.　　

In addition, the days when they arrived to Guanwai were still very
long. She wouldn’t be able to hide under the red veil without seeing
people forever. If not finding a person who was a bit similar, how
could it be hidden from the people’s ears and eyes?　　

Besides, Guanwai honestly was too far also too uncivilized, that
damn Ju’r, resisted to death unwilling to marry to Guanwai. Not only
her, as long as it’s a girl with the right mind, who would be willing to
go away from one’s native place to that kind of place? That so called
Guanwai wealthiest family, who would have known it was true or
false? She actually already consulted with several personal servants,
asked for their opinion, none of them agreed to take the risks. She
could only turn her attention to Shi Jie Yi.

As a result, the growing rate of the matter swiftly reached to what

Shi Jie Yi had imagined.　　
 Not long after, he had been dressed as a bride, trying for the first
time in his life a girl’s apparel. What he couldn’t stand was, he
indeed was very similar with the Young Lady, dressing up and putting
on makeup he also did not looked so ugly. 　

After everything had been properly arranged, Ling Shuang taking

Ju’r whose face was showing some sympathy, swiftly disappeared in
the dark color of the night.　　

How pitiful! If not because too afraid of the cruelty of the Guanwai
people, she actually would agree to substitute, Ju’r sympathetically
thought. Now, could only put Xiao Shi Zi into great inconvenience!
※※※※　　
“Big Brother, let’s toast to your marriage.”　　
 The man who was speaking was the second son of the Yun family,
Yun Tian Hao. He had such a desirable disposition, a bold and
unconstrained but handsome and spirited face, straight and
stuckout bridged nose added to the thick lips. When he smiled,
always could attract many ladies to have a spell of palpitation.
Especially his tall and sturdy stature, wide and broad shoulders,
sturdy and firm chest,
really could give one a safe and secure feeling.　　

At this moment, on his good-looking handsome face, was showing

a blindingly bright smile, attracted the attention of most of the
people in the inn. The only one who didn’t praise him, most probably
was his elder brother, Yun Tian Yang. 　　

The Yun Tian Yang whose outward appearance was not the least
bit inferior to his blood brother, at this moment, on that worthy to
be praised face, not even the slightest smile could be seen,
instead, he was extremely resentful. However, the stretched
tight handsome face, appeared to be even more desirable, not a
few young ladies
simply astonished upon a look.　
 “If you say another word, don’t blame me for not being
courteous.” Yun Tian Yang heavily put down the cup of wine in his
hand.　　

Before Tian Hao found him, there was already a crowd of people
that swarmed him to congratulate him, he was already quite
ablaze
by anger, then Tian Hao came to add oil to the fire. 　　

“Bring it on!” Tian Hao said provocatively. “But, I think it is

better if you save up your energy for your wedding night. I
heard that the future Sister-in-Law is Jiangnan’s well-known
beauty. Big Brother this time really makes a profit.” 　　

“Great. You must remember this response of yours.” Yun

Tian Yang narrowed his eyes. “ time, I will suggest father to find
you a bride too. Remember, it will be a hand cannot carry,
burden cannot shoulder, too weak to withstand a gust
of
wind, beautiful woman of Jiangnan.”　　

“Aiya! Such a delicate and fragile girl, your little brother

doesn’t deserve it.” Yun Tian Hao begged to be excused.　　

“Humph!” Yun Tian Yang powerfully banged on the table. “From

very far away, marry to Guanwai here, don’t know what
kind
of problem she has!”　　

That girl with a right mind would agree to take the trouble to
marry to a place which on the eyes of Jiangnan’s people was a place
where birds don’t defecate and hens don’t lay eggs9 whatever
place? Must be had caused whatever trouble in Jiangnan, so that
couldn’t get married, right?

“Maybe have heard about Big Brother’s great reputation?”

Yun Tian Hao teasingly replied.

“Or c ou l d b e t o o u g l y s o n ob o d y wa n t. ” Tian Yang

suspiciously made a wild guess.　　
 “No way!” But Tian Hao somewhat disagreed. “I heard from the
old man, that future sister-in-law is beauti f ul to the
extreme!”

“Bullshit!” Tian Yang fiercely cursed. “That old man, which of

his eyes has seen that girl?” 　　

“You are right.” Tian Hao once again rejoiced that he wasn’t the
eldest, did not have the pressure to produce a male heir to
continue the family line. “If you can decline, it would be great!”

He was saying that without much responsibility. His words

contained a sympathetic meaning to the fullest.
“Indeed!” Tian Yang sighed in lament.　　
 If not because that old man fainted without early warning, even
the doctor couldn’t examine what kind of disease, one strong
and healthy person fainted just like that, caused the two
brothers not even had the time to lift their hands, under the
pressure without having other alternatives, could only agree to
the old man forcing a
marriage as if fulfilling his one last wish. 　　

If could use this marriage as a pretext, to make the old man’s

illness be better, Yun Tian Yang of course would be willing to do. But
as he was saying this, his heart was still extremely unwilling.

Initially intended to randomly find a marriageable age girl from the

neighborhood, then just merrily married her. Who would
have guessed, the old man unexpectedly became persistent, must
marry a distinguished family girl to splendor shine on the family’s
door10, to let the enti re of Guanwai area be envious to no
end. Without considering, how would he have that much time to
court that kind of flower like young lady, the piling works of
grazing the land, how would he have the skill to divert his
attention from it?

Moreover, the two brothers’ mother, was from a distinguished

aristocratic family that the old man insisted to marry, the
result? Couldn’t stand the quietness, ran away with another man!
That damn old man still couldn’t see, still on the pastureland built
a luxurious grand house, purchased some useless luxurious
furniture and ornaments, intended to give the unable to give
to their mother’s
enjoyment, all of them for the future daughter-in-law.

However, that Ling Shuang, didn’t ever think too beautifully! Tian
Yang flared up inwardly. The old man’s idea, did not necessarily
mean his idea. 　　

In actuality, he already thought of bucketloads of schemes. He

intended to forcefully take away that pampered and spoiled wife.
He wanted his other half, must be able to share weal and woe11
with him, not only could share the joys of wealth and riches.
 “It can be, the new sister-in-law is a good person!”

“If she could pass the trial, I will accept her.”

“What trial?” Tian Hao asked in high spirits.　　

“Tomorrow, after she arrived at the appointed place, I will

take her home. But not at our home on the pastureland,
but to that newly built warehouse on the last year
bought pastureland. In short, I want her together with
me to rush the herd of horses to the mountain, make her
ride a horse on a long and difficult trek. Without clean
water to wash her face, without pretty dresses to wear,
let her feel the hardship
then withdraw.”
 “Won’t it be too cruel?” Tian Hao expressed his mind. “Also,
old man is waiting for you to take the bride home to
perform
the marriage ceremony!”　

“This, I will leave it to you! My good brother.” Tian Yang

firmly patted his shoulder. “Help me to tell the old man, just
say
the bride’s route has been delayed, must need
another several days to arrive. Just give me several days,
guarantee that girl will change her mind, busily run back to
Jiangnan.”

Tian Hao formed a smile. “See m s lik e i t will b e very

interesting. Don’t you scare the delicately pretty girl
too seriously!”

“As long as she is sensible, of course everyone will be very

happy.”

Tian Hao still wanted to extend his tongue, lifting his head, he saw
the inn’s lady boss was waving to his elder brother.
“Big Brother, tonight you go home or not?”　　
 “No. I will stay in the inn for a night. Tomorrow morning I
will go and take your unintended sister-in-law to ‘our
home’.” 　　

“Remember, do not overdo it. You are still an about to

have a marriage man. Do not fool around with
another girl
anymore.” 　　

Tian Yang followed his line of vision to have a look, he saw

Guanwai’s famous pretty widow. It was one among his intimate
girlfriends, so neednot to reveal the could cause one’s heart to
palpitate smile.

“Since you have said not desti ned, how could it be a

marriage ceremony?”
 “You are not to spend the wedding night with sister-
in- law?”

Tian Yang displayed a smile that said it was worth thinking over,
then said: “The thing in the future, who could have known?”
 Yun Tian Hao saw the stepped onto the second floor figure,
couldn’t help but heave a sigh.　　

“If too unrestrained, you will get the retributi on, Big
Brother.” He muttered to himself. “Really wish that the future
sister-in-law wouldn’t be the general type, could control
Big Brother’s unrestrained nature.”
※※※※　　

“What took you so long?”

Barely just opened the door, Lin Xi had thrown herself into his
chest.　　
 There was a pair of bright black eyes, and sexy plump and smooth
pair of lips, also big and towering breasts, the perfectly round
charming buttocks, Lin Xi had always had the title of Guanwai’s
number one beauty.　　

“Couldn’t wait any longer?” Yun Tian Yang laughed, his bold
and vigorous palm had teasingly patted her charming buttocks,
bent down his body to kiss her.

Lin Xi pushed him away.

“Tell me, what they said, was it the truth?”

“No matter what they said, it has nothing to do with

you.”
Yuan Tian Yang laughingly said.　　
 Lin Xi even if having one’s heart filled with questions, yet still
submitted under Tian Yang’s poison and bewitchment, obediently let
him kiss her.　　

Yun Tian Yang took her to the bed, then fully took advantage of
her, skillfully sucked on her excitedly erected cherry red, and Lin Xi
showed tender care for his firm and upright erection. The two
had
practiced for many years, skill and technique had been well versed,
be harmoniously combined perfectly, not needing a moment,
they
already attained the highest climax.　　

After letting it all out, Yun Tian Yang felt much more relaxed, these
days accumulated pressure and agitation, as if it had vanished a bit.
“Tian Yang, what are you troubling about?”　　

“Nothing. Not a big deal that needs you to be concerned

about.” Yun Tian Yang somewhat not so sincere patted her. 　　

“Not a big deal?” Lin Xi, contrary to Yun Tian Yang expectation,
jumped up, furiously shouted. “You are getting married, it is
still not a big deal?”
 “Getting married men are many, not only me.” Yun Tian Yang
pointed out without any care.

“I thought you will marry me.” Lin Xi replied accusingly.

Yun Tian Yang widened his eyes in astonishment. He had never

known that she had this kind of calculation.　　

This moment, he unexpectedly rejoiced a little bit for his

marriage, not at all without good part. Go to hell. He only intended
to maintain a convenient relationship with Lin Xi, not wanted a
wife who would nag by his side for all his life.

This kind of woman, only one already more than enough for him to
see, no need for the second oneto come.　　

In addition, he had known since long ago that Lin Xi didn’t have
only him, but he didn’t care, because he was not having only Lin Xi
as his woman. Truly didn’t know how Lin Xi got the idea, asserted
and believed he would marry her!

“I am getting married!” He tactfully said.

 “I can be your second.”

“Don’t say such an impossible matter.”

“You!” Lin Xi angered to the point she couldn’t utter a word. “You
deceived my feelings, making me think that...”　　

This was really an absurd accusation. Yun Tian Yang impatiently

raised his body and put on his clothes. Quarrelling with naked
bodies,
seemed a little silly.　　

“Our heart knows belly understands, you not only have me

as your man.” He put on all of his clothing, coldly opened his
mouth.　　
 “That... That is a groundless allegation.” Lin Xi denied with a
flushed face.　　

“Enough!” Yun Tian Yang said impatiently. “You and I don’t

have the same acknowledgement. Maybe it will be best if
I
don’t come anymore.”　　

Lin Xi hurriedly embraced his wanted to leave back.

“Yang!” Her gentle voice pleaded. “Don’t go. Whatever the

matter we can properly talk itover, alright, please don’t
go!”

This night Yun Tian Yang didn’t have the patience to coax anybody,
just lightly set her hand aside. “Talk later! Tomorrow morning I
have some business to attend to.”
 He strode out with large steps, not even lingering for a step.
His heart’s stuffiness had added a layer.
Disgusting! Yun Tian Yang angrily cursed. 　　

Initially he thought Lin Xi was a convenient existence, never had he

thought she harbored such unexpected intention to be his wife. If
he
wanted to marry her, eight hundred years12 ago already would
have married her, why the need to wait until his old man forced a
marriage on him like today. Moreover, he didn’t have the interest
to call the entire men of Guanwai as his brothers.

If had to marry Lin Xi, he rather marry that delicate and spoiled
Ling Shuang, the chance to be a cuckold would be lessened. But, this
is also hard to be said, Yun Tian Yang cynically thought to himself.
Women could never bear the loneliness, who could know Ling Shuang
would be able to keep up for how long?

Disgusting! Woman, your name spells trouble.

Truly irritated him. It would be better if he married a man and

took him home!

 Chapter 2

First time arriving in Guanwai, Shi Jie Yi had a sort of an alarm

feeling for the unfamiliar world.

When he took a broad view through the window of the carriage,

without exception, all he could see was the limitless luxuriant happy-
smelling grass. Once in a while he caught a glimpse of a passing
stream and wooden shack. It was obvious that it was the place
for cows or horses to rest.
 Heaven! He couldn’t have arrived at a place where beasts are
more than human, right? Could he live in this kind of uninhibited
place?

At that time, what kind of ghost had possessed him to make him
agree to disguise as Young Lady? If by any chance he was chased out
of the Yun family, that thing definitely would happen, he didn’t have
even a little money for the travelling expenses. Would he be able
to trudge a long distance back to Jiangnan? The only assets he had
on him was, that one bracelet his Young Lady gave him, didn’t
know how much money its worth, enough or not for him to
return Jiangnan?

Actually, Shi Jie Yi held a thread of hope in his heart, if the Master
of Yun Family was benevolent enough, perhaps he could allow him to
stay under their eaves , had no choice but to yield to the
predicament, what follows next was to accept him.

After all he was an orphan, since earlier had no one to rely on.
Wherever he stayed would be the same. Just said that he was
chased out to return to Jiangnan, the Ling family absolutely wouldn’t
let him off. For now, he could only place his hope on the
benevolence of the
Yun Family!

Presently, he was arranged to stay in an inn, waiting for the

husband from the Yun Family to arrive. It was said, this inn was the
only inn in this small town, there was still quite a distance to the Yun
family’s house.

Shi Jie Yi nervously entangled his fingers, frequently touched the

bracelet on his left wrist, encouraging himself. At least he still had a
little money, not completely with nothing to rely on.

However, it had been too long! The husband shouldn’t have

forgotten to come to fetch him! It had been four hours. He was
wearing a red head covering so he didn’t dare to move recklessly. In
his anxiety as well as nervousness while waiting for the husband, it
was as if he was facing the death of a thousand cuts.
 Finally, the sound of walking steps was transmitted, the ‘ya’ sound
of the wooden door being pushed open. Shi Jie Yi busily straightened
up his sitting posture, didn’t dare to make a loud breathing sound.

Through the edge of his red veil, he could see a person wearing a
pair of black boots slowly approaching to the front of him.

The man after being silent for a period of time, finally stretched
out his hand, in a slow motion he lifted up the red veil on his head.

Yun Tian Yang thought after he lifted up the red veil, he would see
a pair of angry with resentment eyes, after all he had been four
hours late, letting her prop up the heavy bride’s headdress while
waiting for nothing. Of course, he did it purposely, he wanted to
ignite her anger.
 However, never crossed his mind that what he saw would be,
not pouting in furious kind of face, instead, it was a pair of timid
in anxiety like autumn pupils, like the mind of an animal which fell
into a trap. This made the always exceedingly loved domestic
animals
Yun Tian Yang had his heart seized.

Resentful that this Ling Shuang could make him have this kind of
reaction, Yun Tian Yang couldn’t restrain his brows from tauting.

Shi Jie Yi timidly lifted his eyes to glance at Yun Tian Yang, realizing he
was frowning wordlessly, nervously he lowered his head. Why
doesn’t he say anything, the husband wouldn’t have known that he
is the counterfeit! Why is he a

ngry?

Or was it, because his face was too ugly? Shi Jie Yi anxiously made
an inward speculation.
 Although it was merely a brief glance, he also knew that the
husband actually was very good looking. More good looking
compared to all of the people he had seen, also tall and big
certainly just like a deity. Even compared to the Young Lady’s
deeply in love with Xiao Young Master, still more good looking by far!

If Young Lady knew that the husband was such a very good looking
one, definitely would regret not marrying to him!

Yun Tian Yang completely unaware of what random thoughts Shi

Jie Yi had in his mind, he only silently scrutinized him.

This little thing was not bad. Honestly speaking, she was actually
very good looking. He couldn’t help but be suspicious, such a
beautiful little thing, did she need to marry herself to an unfamiliar
place with unfriendly people? He should admire the courage of this
little thing, or should he be puzzled by her foolishness?

What’s more…she…really is small! He couldn’t help but plainly

asked her to stand up. Carefully looked, she ought to only reach his
shoulder! Compared to the women from the north she still was much
smaller, looks like having a kind of grace.
 Perhaps, father so deeply in love with Jiangnan’s lady, because of
this kind of reason. At this moment, Yun Tian Yang couldn’t not agree
with this opinion. Particularly, this little thing’s timid expression, he
truly rarely saw it.

Honestly speaking, he had accustomed to the northern ladies

bold and open-minded style, even if the publicly known as
Guanwai’s number one beauty Lin Xi, also didn’t have such dainty
and mild gracefulness, could only bluntly make a demand.

Upon a look, she was stealthily looking at him, frequently the

eyelash cutely quivered. The amorous red mouth opened and
closed, but utter out not even half a word, the commendable fair
and clear hands twisted and turned, seemingly nervous to the
extreme! What an interesting reaction.
 To strengthen the sense of his existence, Yun Tian Yang odiously
pulled a chair, then sat in front of Shi Jie Yi, looking at him eye to eye.

This action of course got the desired result. He could see Shi Jie Yi
anxiously widened his eyes, let out a sharp gasp, whole face blushed
deep red.

“I am your haven’t met before husband, do you know?”

“I…... I know…...” Shi Jie Yi inclined to the back out of reflex and
shrank back, muttered and mumbled softly in his reply.

“You are called as Ling Shuang?”

“…....” Shi Jie Yi didn’t know if he should or should not answer,

after a long while he finally hesitatingly nodded his head.
 “I am Yun Tian Yang.”

“I…....” Shi Jie Yi deeply sighed, finally decided to say it quickly, he

didn’t have big guts, didn’t have the way to do this over and
again. “I am not…...”
 Didn’t give him the chance to complete his words, Yun Tian Yang
suddenly raised his body, to tower above while glaring at him.

“Our introduction only until this point!” Yun Tian Yang frankly
spoke. “I don’t know why you agreed to this marriage, but
as you can see, I am not that kind of extremely thoughtful
man, also will not be a good husband. If you expect
something like that Jiangnan’s talented scholarly refined
and cultured man, then you probably have to be greatly
disappointed, your luck is not that good.”

“I didn’t expect anything...…” Shi Jie Yi replied in a soft voice. The

same as before, Yun Tian Yang didn’t give him the chance to
finish, just minding his own speech.
 “Because of the oldman, I agreed to marry you. But for
your own good, it is better if you go back on your way
home, to avoid falling into a without any affection feeling
marriage. Of course, after returning to Jiangnan, whatever
you want to say is up to you. Saying that I am such a brutal
savage also can do, just don’t stay here.”

Shi Jie Yi was a face of confusion. Yun Tian Yang thereupon made a
persistent effort.

“I tell you now, here you wouldn’t have a maidservant

who would follow you like a cloud, everything must be
done by your own hands, a person as delicate as you, will
can never do such a heavy manual labor.”

“It doesn’t matter! But, I ...…”

 “Most importantly,” Yun Tian Yang cut him off. “Even if I
m a rr ie d yo u , I will no t b e fa ith f ul . I alr ea d y hav e a
girlfriend!”

“Concubine?” Shi Jie Yi oddly asked.

 “That part is of no importance for us.” Yun Tian Yang claimed
with a guilty conscience. “We are very contented with each
other, there is no room for you to stick in.”

So it is like this. Shi Jie Yi nodded his head in comprehension. When

he was about to open his mouth to guarantee he would never be
the obstacle between them, Yun Tian Yang open his mouth again!

“So, if you wanted to stay, you could obtain a husband

in name only, I absolutely will never touch you.”

“Absolutely never?” Shi Jie Yi opened his eyes widely.

“Correct, you are merely a tool to give consolation for

a critically ill oldman, for me you have no other significance.”
 “If I left, what about the old Master?”

“I will think of a way…...” Yun Tian Yang said without any

confidence.　

Actually he didn’t have any way! Shi Jie Yi looked at him in pity. In
Shi Jie Yi’s heart, Yun Tian Yang had become a pitiful crazed in love
man whose affectionate feeling was broken.

“You…... really won’t touch me?”

“Correct!”

“You sure?”

“Of course!” Yun Tian Yang was unhappy. What was in this
woman’s mind? She looked as if happy to the utmost hearing he
wouldn’t touch her, but, certainly this was merely his illusion, wasn’t
it?

This kind of insulting talk, how could she be happy?

“That’s great!” Shi Jie Yi said as if relieved from a burden. “Then

I can stay.”

This decision was greatly beyond Yun Tian Yang’s expectation.

“You must not have heard it clearly, I am saying that...…”

“I do understand!” Shi Jie Yi cut him off. “You have someone

you love, married me only because the critically ill oldman,
eh, father, for all your life you will never touch me, isn’t that
right?”

Had he ever said for all his life? This moment Yun Tian Yang
nodded with his head in the mist.

“If so, I will just stay. For you, I will take care of the
oldman, eh, father, so you can account to you father.”
 “I think you don’t understand...…”

“I really do understand.” Shi Jie Yi cheerfully smiled.

“No, you don’t understand, eh...…” Yun Tian Yang anxiously

began to tell a lie. “We Yun Family are not at all wealthy.
Doesn’t matter what that old man said in his letter, all of
it was not the truth, the fact is the Yun Family already
only strong in appearance but inwardly weak. You staying
here will only bear hardship and endure hard work, there
isn’t anything good.”

“No problem.” Shi Jie Yi faced him with a brilliant smile. Pretending

to be the Young Lady made Shi Jie Yi to have a deep

guilty feeling. In the normal course of events, he should tell the
truth
about the situation, and then hit the way back home. But…...
return to Jiangnan, there was no one waiting for him, but here,
there was a family waiting for him, a dying oldman was waiting
for him to console.
 A family! Heaven knows how much he yearned for a family. To
have people who cared for him, to have people who he could
care about.

Although the husband didn’t like him, but if he stayed, at least he

could take care of the oldman for him, it wasn’t completely useless.
As long as he was careful, not letting people find out his real identity,
hence upon, he would have a family!

Marriage, is a long-term guarantee! After all, the husband only

wanted a pretense wife, if so, he absolutely could be one,
wouldn’t give the husband any unnecessary trouble and
complications.

If by any chance...… by any chance his identity as a man was

exposed, then he would just leave by his own accord, definitely
wouldn’t give Yun Family whatever increasing trouble. As for now,
just let him be selfish a little bit, to indulge himself in the pleasure
days of having a ‘family’ feeling!
※※※※　　

“Eh….. That...…”

“Tian Yang!”Seeing Shi Jie Yi hesitating didn’t know how to

address him, Yun Tian Yang impatiently told him. Why no matter
what, this little thing always not able be clear, even a name he
couldn’t utter.

“Tian Yang!” Shi Jie Yi followed what was right as a stream

followed its course, called out. “We are going back to the
ranch now? Right?”
 Change d into an easy and convenient clothes, Shi Jie Yi
immediately felt a lot relaxed. Even with his current identity, the
dress was extremely convenient, however, when the heavy
makeup on his whole face had been removed, letti ng his hair
hang down naturally, only tied on the hair end with a ribbon, the
Young Lady’s
clothes material although fine, the style was indeed simple. When
he changed to this convenient to move clothing, Tian Yang didn’t
seem to have any opinion.

Hence, Shi Jie Yi could feel more at ease. It seemed like, Tian Yang
saying only wanted him to be a wife in name only was the truth.

“No. Father said, we as newlywed husband and wife,

should spend a period of time as a little family on our own,
so we will go to stay in the new ranch first.” Yun Tian
Yang deliberately scared him. “That place doesn’t have
anything. There isn’t anyone to wait on you. Now if you
want to regret it you still have the time. So to avoid the
time when you call out to Heaven, Heaven won’t answer,
call out to the earth, earth won’t respond.”
 Actually Yun Tian Yang’s speech had one hundred loopholes1. If Shi
Jie Yi was a little bright, he would find the faulty wording in Yun Tian
Yang’s words. Just too bad, Shi Jie Yi because of trying hard to discard
his own first falsehood, had become extremely nervous, of course
he didn’t have any surplus energy to notice other’s faults.

“I will not regret.”

This woman! Really dull and stupid. Yun Tian Yang furiously
thought to himself.

Really couldn’t have guessed. This person was not that tall, but
the character was really stubborn. Caused him to try every possible
way to persuade, still didn’t agree to nod head in agreement.
Fine, just wait until arriving at the strong-winded ranch, let’s see
how will she react.
 TianFeng Ranch was his pride. Everything was established by his
own hands. In not a long time, it would become great. But at the
present, it was still nothing. Most probably, for Ling Shuang with a
high ranking status, definitely it was simpler and cruder. However,
this Ling Shuang, was a litt le beyond his expectati ons. In his
impression, all of the people from rich and influential families, once
they went out of the house they would have servants to follow like
a cloud, to display their high ranking status. And what’s wrong
with her, actually dared to come alone to marry to Guanwai.
Even not bringing one personal servant to wait on her.

See! A foolish moth received what it deserved! Nobody helped her

to manage her appearance; the beautiful hair could only hang
down loosely, just casually bound at the end by a ribbon. When the
wind blew, the hair tried to struggle free from the bind, willfully
floating in the wind. Upon the sight, it was really… Damn that
pleasing the heart and eyes scenery.
 After removing the heavy makeup and gaudy dress, a delicate
and pretty visage appeared, the hadn’t been stained with
rouge and powder face, unexpectedly wasn’t pale in comparison
to the face when in the bride makeup, on the contrary, there
was a kind of unusual feelings, a little bit lacking of a woman’s
scent, but still revealed her own exquisite and elegant demeanor.
Humph! Yun Tian Yang didn’t want to admit it, thought to
himself, she did this definitely to emphasize her inborn beauty,
need not to adorn any rouge and makeup, already could be the
most gorgeous amongst beauties.

But it was too bad, the her who didn’t use cosmetic, although
adorably pretty and delicate, in fact compared to Lin Xi’s amorous
like peaches and plums appearances was not up to standard… only
that, Yun Tian Yang was extremely unwilling to realize, he seemed
like he had a special fondness to a delicate and prett y type of
woman. Damn!

Seeing Shi Jie Yi rooted on that place, whole face anxious like
didn’t know how to manage, he impatiently shouted.

“What are you dawdling about?”

 “Eh?” Shi Jie Yi busily lifted his head to look at him. Yun Tian Yang
since earlier had climbed up the carriage, hands already held the
reins. “I am ready.” He hurriedly shouted to answer.

“All ready why are you still not up the carriage!” Yun Tian
Yang shouted. “Don’t say that you are waiting for me to
help you, are you? I am not into that kind of convention.”

“Ah!” Shi Jie Yi as if being awoken from a dream, busily climbed

the carriage. “I forgot I can take the carriage.”

He always had the part to follow behind the carriage, except

for that short period of time when he was disguised as a bride, he
had never been in a carriage before.
 Yun Tian Yang suspiciously glanced at him, then out of habit
stretched his hand to pull him up. ly, what kind of life did she have?
Even could forget riding in a carriage?

Shi Jie Yi silently and stiffly sat by Yun Tian Yang’s side. In his
heart, because of this pretense, he felt guilty of this sin. If the
Young Lady is here, this seat ought to belong to her. Was he being
too evil, for not telling the truth to Tian Yang?

Tian Yang even if his language was bad, he was not a bad person.
Seeing him just now using bad languages and bad temper towards
him, but still stretching his hand to pull him up, just by this he could
already know, he was a good person who showed consideration
towards other.
 Jie Yi stealthily looked sideways at Tian Yang’s direction, realizing
that he was being lost in thought and pursed his lips, Jie Yi also
stiffened not knowing what to say. The seventeen year old him all
along never had a friend of the same age, Yun Tian Yang though still
young and not pretty much the same as him, only about twenty,
but Jie Yi still couldn’t find a subject to converse with.
 The carriage had been moving for a good distance, Yun Tian Yang
finally broke the silence.

“You know, father falls ill!”

“Mm!” At first he didn’t know, but because Tian Yang had been
grumbling, wanting not to know was also difficult. “Wish that…
father…” This sentence he said for a short while was indeed
sincere. He finally had a father. “Wish him to get well soon.”

At least she didn’t wish him to pass away soon. So she could spend
freely the large sum of money and the family property. Yun Tian
Yang thought to himself.

“You know, seeing me married is his cherished wish.” Yun

Tian Yang cleared his throat. “Even if we already reached a
common understanding, but since you want to stay, then it
is necessary to put on a play in front of father. After all,
he wishes me to have a wife who is coming from a
noble background.”

“Put on a play?” Jie Yi confusedly asked. “What kind of act?” “In

front of father, we must play the part of a ‘happy’

husband and wife.”

According to Yun Tian Yang’s estimation, father was so looking

forward for the bride to arrive, even more pressing than him as
the groom. Tian Hao definitely wouldn’t be able to stall father for a
long time, also the level of stubbornness of this woman
surpassed his expectation. His plan now probably would be very
difficult to be successful, if not had talked earlier about terms and
conditions, it wouldn’t do.
 “You know how much father is expecting your arrival, if by
chance he found out that our marriage is merely a
pretense, for him this won’t be a small attack. So, in front
of him, you
play your expected role, I play my part. We, in front of
father, are a couple of happy husband and wife, do you
agree?”

“Mm!” Jie Yi nodded his head. “But…How is it to be called as

happy husband and wife?” He asked in puzzlement.

Because Tian Yang promised not to touch him, so that he could

boldly continue to pretend, eventually being a little ‘happy’ with Tian
Yang, could he still play the part when he was only a counterfeit
bride?

“What do you think? What else kind of happiness could be

done by a couple newlywed husband and wife?”
 “That…” Jie Yi blanked for a while, completely didn’t have any
idea. “Then… you can say something nice in front of father”

“Just that?” Seeing her rack her brains, but only could think out
this small bit, Tian Yang couldn’t refrain himself from breaking into
laughter. His bride was still awfully pure and honest, really didn’t
know what those Jiangnan’s men had in mind, to actually let this kind
of woman marry into Guanwai.

“Not enough?” Jie Yi was surprised and became nervous, couldn’t

calm the beating in quickened speed heart.

Maybe, he should tell the truth for the better, not letti ng his
imagination to run wild.

Tian Yang both amused and angered upon seeing her expression.
Was he so extremely terrifying? He, Yun Tian Yang, was Guanwai’s
well-known handsome man! See, she was frightened to the point of
having a disgusted expression.

And also, this was not him being picky, but this had no opportunity
to be a wife of his, the figure was rather poor. The front of the
chest that two round flesh was rather too flat, almost couldn’t
see the undulating part. Physically such not well developed he
also didn’t
fuss over it, somehow his complaints should be more!

“I think…...” Tian Yang returned to the main subject. “Once in a

while a bodily contact is a must.”

“But…... You said…...”

“I know what I have said.” Tian Yang fixed his eyes on her to
cut her off. Tian Yang still clearly remembered her happy reaction at
that time. “Don’t worry. Everything is merely an act. Your
chastity for all your life not to be worried about.”

“Then it is fine!” Jie Yi for this could be at ease.

Agreement had been formed, the two people sank into silence
again.
 Didn’t know what would she say when she saw TianFeng Ranch?
Tian Yang secretly glanced aside at the sitting upright and still by his
side, who also once in a while secretly looked at him. Only that she
didn’t realize, her every line of vision, had been known by him
without missing out even a single line.

TianFeng Ranch from their original home of the Yun family was not
far, however, at the present there was nothing beautiful, to the
point the house was only providing a place to rest, a storehouse of
grass and mud to pile up items of no value, also there was a hut
made out of some logs, these things definitely did not match up
with this highly privileged Young Lady’s imagination. But, the
faster she lost her hopes, the better for her.
 See! She is being so quiet, probably already pondering over
whether to go home or not.

“Listen, Ling Shuang…...”

“Call me Yi’r.”
 “Yi’r?”

“Eh….... that…..... That is my childhood name.” Since he had

considered to stay, Jie Yi decided it was best not to let people
address him as Ling Shuang, to avoid his tardy reaction.

“Alright! Yi’r.” Yun Tian Yang’s rough voice and rough temper
called him, what kind of weird childhood name was that,
completely didn’t match with her name!

“I was born at Yi River’s side, so...…”

Tian Yang nodded his head, seemingly accepted his explanation.

“Be…... Because you said we must be a little bit intimate,

so….. so I think..… calling my childhood name should be
more convincing.” Jie Yi twisted his fingers, nervously giving an
explanation.

“Yi’r.” Tian Yang intended to make the last attempt. “You’re all
the way in Guanwai you must prepare to taste
hardship, especially after arriving in the Ranch. I believe
you yourself already could see, this place is originally very
rare of signs of human habitation. The only suitable to be
called as bustling place, is that town where you had been.”

“However, this so-called small town, actually is not more

but a single street. In the days to come, what you have
to face, is not a bustling place of disti nguished people
or exquisite objects gathering together, a scene of
people making an uproar of entertaining noise, there
won’t be anybody coming to visit, won’t be any amusing
things to entertain you.”

“I know.”

“You don’t know!” Tian Yang severely cut her off. “Maybe now
you are moved by this magnificent scenery, but for the
next
many long days to come, you will definitely be fed up,
will not be able to endure the loneliness, also, here has
nobody or whatsoever to let you vent out your grievances.”

“I will not be fed up.” Tian Yang’s each and every worries, had
always been his livelihood.

“You will.” Tian Yang nearly got his temper up. This little thing up
to this point was unexpectedly still so stubborn. “You should know,
the days in Guanwai, wouldn’t be the same as in Jiangnan.
What we will have, is the actual ‘life’. Not that Jiangnan’s
‘enjoyment’.”

“I also only think about to live on.” Jie Yi lowered his voice
determinedly said. As long as I didn’t have to be alone in loneliness,
that would be fine. He didn’t mind at all whether to go through
hardship or not.

“Then, your husband’s heart has somebody else, how do

you handle this?” Tian Yang loathed himself to be this cruel, to
smash her confidence in staying in this place. “Don’t forget,
husband is a woman’s God. If your God, is not someone you
could rely on, do you still have the reason to stay?”

Shi Jie Yi lifted his head to look at him.

“I don’t need whoever to rely on, I can take care of my own

self.” He only didn’t want to be lonely, was this an excessive
extravagant wish? He and Tian Yang, should be able to stay together
like friends, as long as Tian Yang is willing to give him a chance.

No. He absolutely wouldn’t compromise.

 “Tian Yang. I want a family. There is a father, family
members, as for you agree or disagree to become my
family, I couldn’t force you. If this kind of family, only by
playing the role of your wife so that I can have it, then I will
become your
wife.”

Damn! Such a firm and unshakable manner, Yun Tian Yang nearly
had a dazzled bewilderment! This little thing actually could have such
an imposing manner. But, this was not the time to admire.

This is what she wants. Yun Tian Yang basically still hesitated
whether he should or should not carry out the plan. Now, if I don’t
do it, it wouldn’t do anymore!

Humph! Wait until she faces the hardship life in the ranch, at
that time, don’t blame him for not warning her.

Notes:

(1). One hundred loopholes (id): Full of mistakes.

 Chapter 3

When the carriage reached the ranch, it was already almost

dusk. However, even though the sky was almost dark, it was still
unable to cover the house’s ugliness. Master Ling still pledged in all
sincerity that the Yun Family was the wealthiest family in Guanwai.
Looks like it was a lie.

Perhaps, the Yun oldman desperately wanted to have a

daughter- in-law, so that he told falsehoods to deceive people.
Really so pitiful. Didn’t know why, Shi Jie Yi couldn’t believe that
the proud and arrogant Yun Tian Yang, could tell falsehoods
about his family’s condition.
 But, what if father found out that the one who was coming was a
‘male daughter-in-law’, didn’t know what kind of blow would he take?
Thinking upon this, the always docile Jie Yi, couldn’t help but be
angry towards Ling Shuang. Angry that she actually hurt the
oldman’s heart to this extent.

The carriage galloped forward to the ranch, little chickens fled in

disarray to all places, the dogs were barking nonstop. Yun Tian Yang
shouted at them, effectively stopped them.

The house indeed as Yun Tian Yang had said, without anything
good, to the point that there was no other yard, only had one
lonely building, standing tall and upright on the vast expanse of
grassland. Not in the least beautiful to be praised.
 Shi Jie Yi didn’t have any complaints towards this. Before he
entered Ling Family to work, the place he lived in was also a cramped
narrow room, moreover, even smaller than this house. Since now
there were only the two of them to live in, he believed it wouldn’t
be
too crowded.

Furthermore, Shi Jie Yi looked around the scenery in all direction.

Right away he took a liking to this place. At the distant, there were
the exuberant greenish high mountains. Not far away, there was
the sound of a murmuring stream. Living in such a beautiful
place, he wouldn’t have any problem at all.

Yun Tian Yang climbed down the carriage, pushed open the hadn’t
been used for long time door. Because of the long time it hadn’t
been resided in, the air inside was both damp and moist with a
mildew smell. Compared to the fresh and clean air of the outside,
this scent was even more obvious.

“This place is just like this.” Yun Tian Yang paid close attention
to Jie Yi’s reaction. Expecting him to reveal a shocked and terrified
expression. “Father and I, and my little brother Tian Hao, live
in the Yun Family’s ranch, although a little bigger than here,
but the building is all the same. I don’t know what my
father had told you and your family in the letter he wrote,
but” ---He shrugged his shoulders. “The real circumstances are
just like this. There is no a luxurious house.”

“Just that the Yun family’s ranch, because of these several

years suffered from the cold calamity, has all along been
facing hardships to maintain. Maybe it won’t be long
before we couldn’t preserve it any more. We’re afraid
that father will find out, have been hiding it from him
without saying anything.” Yun Tian Yang pulled his lie greater and
greater. “This time father let us find a place to spend our
time alone, because we didn’t want father to know that
we don’t have another place, could only take you here.”
 How frightful. Shi Jie Yi creased his brows. Father went as far as to
tell such a great falsehood. Luckily the one who came was not Ling
Shuang. Otherwise, didn’t know how she would insult father.
 No matter. At the present, although it was not a
whatsoever beautiful house, but he and Tian Yang was still very
young, couldn’t they

make father’s dream come true? He would be working very very

hard.

He ran back to the carriage. Lifted up the carriage’s curtain then

let it down again. Didn’t know what he was doing inside.

Tian Yang upon seeing his action, even if saying this was what he
expected, actually he was a little bit disappointed. Was this what
the so called ‘determination’?

Not long after, Shi Jie Yi had climbed down the carriage again. His
attire had changed again. He was wearing the homespun cloth of
dress given by Sister Ju’r. Ling Shuang though agreed to make him
disguise as her, but certainly unwilling to give too many nice clothes
to him, her reason was it was of no use for him, so she asked Sister
Ju’r to give him her old clothes. Never had thought they could really
come in handy.

Although afraid these old clothes could raise Tian Yang’s suspicion,
but he couldn’t afford to attend to this. Told him to wear the silks
and satins to sweep and clean the place, this kind of reckless waste
of the products, he wouldn’t be able to carry out.

“What are you …” Tian Yang didn’t have the time to question Shi
Jie Yi why he changed into such old clothing, Shi JieYie already
passed through him like a gust of wind, straight into the house.
 He followed Shi Jie Yi to enter. Let out a ‘ah’ surprised voice, a
piece of worn-out quilt was flying towards his face.

“What the hell are you doing?” he disgustedly tossed aside

the half corroded quilt.

“Of course beginning to sweep and clean.” His mouth spoke,

his hands also didn’t stop moving.

“You are crazy!” Tian Yang almost roared. “Now what we

should do is, to turn the carriage, and then take you to
return to Jiangnan......”

Shi Jie Yi looked at him with blaming eyes.

“You are the crazy one. Now what we should do is, to

work hard together, help father to build a beautiful house
which he can be proud of. Even though only a house of grass
and mud, it also couldn’t be too messy.”

His mouth was saying this, Jie Yi since earlier had moved his hands
to move away the piling junks inside the room to the outside. “We
work hard together. Now, if you can also move your hands
to help me, I will be extremely grateful.”

Yun Tian Yang dazed on the spot. Until there was another thing
that flew towards his direction, he could finally pull himself together.

This...... This reaction had never been expected by him. Palpitating

for a long time before he could react. He had sat on the back of
a tiger and it was hard to get down. He certainly couldn’t choose
this time to tell Yi’r, that at another ranch, since earlier he
already had father’s yearning for even in ones dreams larger house.

However......Tian Yang realized the corner of his mouth had formed

a curve. She surprisingly wanted to work hard together with him,
to build a house that could make father proud. What a cute
response.
 No! No! This is only a pretense. Wait unti l she realized the
hardship, the strenuous work, definitely would beat the return
drum1. What he saw was merely a false appearances, he wouldn’t
be confused by her.

He bent his waist to pick the worn-out things thrown by Yi’r from
the room, by the brook side he lit a fire, to burn all of it. And then he
walked to the door, peeking like a domestic animal before
entering the room. Yi’r was using a worn to the point couldn’t be
any more worn-out broom to sweep, everywhere the dust was
fluttering. The matter of course was, Yi’r also couldn’t stay clean.

But didn’t know why, Yun Tian Yang felt this Yi’r was more beautiful
than the Yi’r he saw in the bride’s attire.

“Yi’r. I want to make a bed. You choose, which corner

should I put the bed?” His speaking tone had become a lot
gentler.

“Bed?” The cleaning movement was halted.

“Mm!” Tian Yang said as if it was not his concern. “This place
doesn’t have anything, so it is the best if I make a bed
before the sun has completely set. The other things such
as chair and table, will make it tomorrow.”

“But...... Are we sleeping together?”

“Yi’r!” Tian Yang condemned and looked at him.“ I will keep my

word. You absolutely can trust me. We must have a place to
sleep, only that. I will not touch you.”

“Mm!” Jie Yi because of his own alarmed state felt ashamed. Tian
Yang had said, he should just trust him.

Yet, this body part of a man, sleeping together with Tian Yang,
would it not unintendedly blow his cover?

“When father first suggested us to live alone, didn’t

know anything about TianFeng Ranch’s condition. You know
that he fell ill.” Tian Yang felt a twinge of guilt to put the blame on
his father.

“It won’t be a problem.” Jie Yi said kindly with good intention.

“But, can you make two beds to put on two corners, it will
be
fine even if it is smaller.”

“You don’t trust me?” Tian Yang pretended to be hurt.

“No. No.” Jie Yi busily said. After all up until now, what he had
said was the truth. “My ...... My sleeping habit is not good.”

Of course this was not true. He also didn’t wish Tian Yang to
believe.

As a result. “You’re afraid of me?”

“No...... not like that!” Jie Yi dejectedly lowered his head.

Tian Yang walked to get close to him. Using his thumb and his
index finger held his face. Attentively looked in his [Link]’r’s eyes
were bright and beautiful. It seemed to have a lot of vigor......Really
beautiful. But, in them was as if something was hidden?

Blankly standing to let Tian Yang look, Jie Yi completely didn’t

understand why Tian Yang wanted to straightly look at him.

His eyes were very sharp, causing his heart to jump and skip a
beat. He was really afraid that he would unconsciously reveal the
truth.

“Not afraid of me then fine.” Tian Yang let him go. “We could
be said as husband and wife, will have to live together for
all of our life.” If unlucky!
※※※※　　
 “You have made the bed?” Jie Yi amazedly looked at the
wooden bed in front of him. Never had thought that Tian Yang from
chopping wood, sawing wood and putting them together to build
a bed surprisingly didn’t take a long time. After he tidied up the
room, Tian Yang also had finished the bed.
 “Not so big, but it is enough for both of us to sleep in.”

Didn’t build a big plank bed, the reason was because Tian Yang
estimated they both wouldn’t be long in this grass and mud
house. He believed that after several days, Yi’r would regret it.

“Awesome.” Jie Yi’s tone and expression was full of adoration. Tian

Yang was not a young master who could only enjoy the
wealth, rather, he was a promising youth who was willing to endure
the hardship and stand the hard work. The Young Lady’s Xiao Young
Master couldn’t be compared to him.

Hearing Jie Yi’s compliment, Tian Yang was a litt le happy.

Subconsciously he also praised: “You also had tidied up the room
to become very clean.”
 “That’s because you helped to move the heavy things
out, so that the room could be completely neat. Those
things I couldn’t move them at all.”

“I am a man. Strenuous and heavy work, of course you

should let me do.”

Jie Yi couldn’t help but think, he was also a man. Yet the figure and
physical strength wasn’t up to Tian Yang’s level. Indeed, Tian Yang’s
appearance, physique, was all he could ever dream of. He also
wished to have Tian Yang’s formidable power.

On the other side, Tian Yang was annoyed that he actually could
say such sappy word. But when he saw Yi’r helplessly moving the on
the verge of collapsing table, he couldn’t help but move his hands
to help.
 “Your strength is really great. Are all the northern men like
this?”

“Maybe!” Tian Yang somewhat said in mocking manner. “We are

not those Jiangnan romanti c, gentle and frail looking
scholars.”

Jie Yi all of a sudden snorted with laughter.

“I also couldn’t imagine you, holding the folding fan, by the

riverside reciting a poem of a couple, with a group of young
masters, debating over the regulated verse is in
accordance or not in accordance that kind of petty matter.”

Tian Yang himself upon imagining that kind of image, unable to

restrain his smile and then just smiled.

The two people since staying together, this was the first time to
have such a harmonious atmosphere.
 “Are you hungry?” Tian Yang stopped his earlier angry tone,
gently asked.

Yie’r was not like a gentle and frail-looking wealthy young lady.
Maybe he should give Yi’r a chance, to let Yi’r prove herself, whether
she could live in this beautiful yet cruel vast land.

“Mm!” Jie Yi embarrassedly smiled. “But...... I have sweated a

lot, really want to have a bath first.”

“Want to have a bath must go to the riverside. Do

you dare?”

This was not him trying to intentionally frightened him, rather this
grass and mud house basically was not a place to live in, it was only
for resting for a while, of course wouldn’t have that kind of bathing
tub. Moreover, a small stream was in a not so faraway place,
naturally it would be put into usefulness.

“Riverside?” Jie Yi considered this matter, struggled for a bit.

Normally, he wasn’t a demanding kind of person, after all, when

he
became a servant, sleeping in a wide bed for a number of
people, wasn’t able to have a chance of a daily bath. Today, if not
because he was sweating a lot, he also wouldn’t raise up this
request, he was also afraid in front of Tian Yang to lay bare himself.

“No problem. This is the beginning of summer, wouldn’t be

that cold.” Jie Yi said after pondering. Anyway, the sky only had the
first stage of moon, wouldn’t be too bright to expose him.

“But, wild beasts could appear or not within this area, you
are not afraid?”

“That......” Jie Yi lifted his head. At first he wanted to plead with

Tian Yang to accompany him, but because he was worried too much
then just gave up.
 About to say he was not going to bathe, Tian Yang already opened
his mouth and said: “Get ready, I will go with you.”

“No...... No need.” Jie Yi whole face flushed red through and

through. In front of him, how could he take off his clothes?

“Don’t worry. Since I have promised you not to touch you, I

of course will respect it. I wouldn’t secretly look at you. This
kind of virtuous bearing I still have.” Tian said without any angry
temperament.

“Really?” Jie Yi’s delight when met with Tian Yang’s displeased
face swiftly he corrected himself. “Thank you. You are really a
good person.”

Only this and already is a good person? Yi’r was really easy to be
pleased.
 When Jie Yi hid behind the thicket to take off his clothes, he often
glanced at Tian Yang’s direction. When he realized that Tian Yang
was still keeping his posture with his back facing the small stream,
unconsciously he let out a sigh of relief. After taking of his trousers,
and removing his head band, he tried and tried the warm
temperature of the water in the small stream, he then took a
deep breath, he entered the small stream, let out a sigh
out of a comfortable feeling.

Because afraid that Tian Yang would be impatient for waiting too
long, though Jie Yi wanted to soak for a little longer, yet still quickly
rubbed his hair and body, and then swiftly put on his clothes, and
walked back to Tian Yang.

“Why so fast?” Tian Yang was a little bit shocked. He basically

thought he had to wait for a few good minutes!

“I am afraid that you will be waiting for too long, it

won’t be good.” Jie Yi gently smiled. “If I have become
familiar with the environment, I can come by myself, at
that time, I don’t need to trouble you anymore!”

“Mm!” Tian Yang absentmindedly answered him. “You...... Why

do you wear this kind of...... not parti cularly tasteful
clothes?”

Didn’t people say ‘Woman for happines s will hold on to

appearance’? Even if he had declared not to touch her, yet, she
shouldn’t abandon herself like this! Seeing Yi’r ruined her beauty with
this kind of crudely made clothing, didn’t know why, he couldn’t stop
himself from saying it out loud.

“This......more convenient......”

“Your few clothing is flashy.” Tian Yang honestly said. “But,

do you only have these unsightly clothes?”
 “I am really sorry that I have hurt your eyes!” Jie Yi was a
little bit hurt. He originally was this shabby and miserable, it wouldn’t
do?

“Forget it!” Tian Yang turned his body towards the way home.
“Let’s go to dry your hair by the fire. Being in the cold wind
won’t be good!” While walking he talked in a whisper. “Really
couldn’t understand what kind of noble young lady life she
previously had. Actually bringing the crude made dress and
personal adornment when she is married. I see that her
marriage goods also not worthy at all!”

In all actuality, Tian Yang if using his intelligence should be able to

realize that things were a little bit strange. Incidentally, he was
being persistent on a certain matter, his nerve had been awfully
thickened. What’s more, he wholeheartedly only thought about how
to make Jie Yi leave, absolutely never thought about the possibility
of Jie Yi being a counterfeit, otherwise, with Jie Yi this kind of unskilled
person, how could he hide it from anybody.
 “Eat a little!” Tian Yang from the carriage took some rations,
tossed it to Jie Yi. The two was sitting in front of a bonfire.

Jie Yi was in a flurry to receive that thing, put it by his side, using
his fingers to comb out his in disorder wet hair first, because
the water vapor on his lit by the fire light face, his whole person
was enveloped in the faint light of the dusk, appeared to be
incomparably soft and graceful. Tian Yang wasn’t aware that he was
staring in awe.

Had always known that Yi’r had a not too bad face, but now looked
at closely, there’s actually a kind of unimaginable beauty. The Yi’r in
front of his eyes, almost made one become intoxicated and hold
one’s breath. Tian Yang obviously could feel his lower part become
restless, he shifted uncomfortably.
 “Tian Yang, what’s wrong?” Jie Yi blinked his long eyelashes,
asked in puzzlement. Why look at him like that, is there something
wrong? Jie Yi’s heart was racing because of being looked by him,
couldn’t help but look down to examine himself, his fingers randomly
moved to sort out his wet hair, not long after, the wet hair was
sorted to become a tangled net, being pulled to the point hurting his
scalp.
 “Nothing!” Tian Yang replied in a crude voice. Didn’t wait for him
to make any reply, he took a clean towel and sat by Jie Yi’s side. “Let
me help you.”

“Eh?” Jie Yi in a daze accepted his help, allowing him to use the
towel to dry the wet hair, use his rough hand to unknot the
tangled hair.

When Tian Yang’s fingers consciously or unconsciously brushed

pass his neck, Jie Yi couldn’t help but draw in a mouthful of air and
hung down his neck. Weird, he wasn’t being too close to the bonfire,
why did he feel extremely hot?

“Why are you sweating?” Tian Yang’s voice was coming right to
his ear, Jie Yi halted his breathing.
 “I feel very hot!” Jie Yi honestly answered.

“If hot why do you wear such high neck apparel, too afraid
of me?” Tian Yang said in delight. “Also, your hair is still wet
don’t randomly comb, easy to get tangled.”

“I know! You...... You don’t have to lean so close to me.” Jie

Yi said in hum and haw.

“What are you being nervous about? In a while when it is

time to bed, wouldn’t it be leaning this close too?”

Jie Yi shocked and lifted his head, four eyes looking at each other.
“But you said......”

“I know what I have said, relax, will you?” This subject she
had already mentioned for didn’t know how many times.
 This little bride of his really didn’t give him face, all the time
wanted him not to touch her.

“I trust you!” Jie Yi gave a beaming smile, sincerely said.

 Tian Yang astonishingly widened his eyes. What the hell was she
talking about, even he himself had difficulty in reigning in his lower
part which began to stir, she actually said she trusted him?

So hateful!

If not firmly believed Yi’r couldn’t deal with it for long, he

absolutely would abandon everything and eat her up.
However, because of having a momentary voracious desire for
pleasure, compensated by marrying an improper wife for all his life,
it was truly not worth it. It would be better if he just held it in!
※※※※　　

Due to the day’s manual labor, the two were extremely

exhausted. The ought to be nervous feeling did not hit Jie Yi at all.
He fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. Tian Yang also didn’t
say anything, only his back facing Jie Yi, put down his head and slept.

Early morning the cock crowed. Jie Yi as his ordinary hardworking

day’s habit woke up. Even though the heater by his side caused
him to reluctantly dawdle for a little while, yet he still struggled to get
out of the bed.

Eh! The heater in the north is really nice. Though this was the
beginning of summer, the night was still cold, caused him the afraid
of the cold person to be uncomfortable. But with this heater, he
slept so comfortably! Never had he thought, Tian Yang was truly
attentive!

This heater......Jie Yi delightfully looked up to see what kind of

heater that was so good. Upon a look, his whole face flushed
crimson red realizing that he had made Tian Yang as a heater.
His whole person was curling up in Tian Yang’s bosom while sleeping.
The two were sleeping face to face. He raised his body, trying to
push aside Tian Yang’s hand which was covering his body.

Damn it! Jie Yi dropped a cold sweat. Didn’t know whether he had
disturbed the sleeping Tian Yang or not. Terrified, he secretly looked
at that sleeping face, seeing that he didn’t stir, by then he could
let out a sigh of relief.

Luckily Tian Yang didn’t awake, otherwise, wouldn’t it be awkward

to the extreme? Both of them were male, but cuddling this tight,
also really too outrageous!

However, changed to another point of view, both of them

were male, sleeping this close seemingly there was nothing so
alarming.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jie Yi carefully looked at Tian

Yang. He had known that Tian Yang was very good looking, but didn’t
dare to look at him attentively.
 “Eyelashes really long......” Long to the point Jie Yi couldn’t help
but think to stretch his hand to secretly touch it, but he still
cleverly restrained himself.

“Eh, the nose’s bridge is high! But his lips are thin. His
brows also very thick! Very nice. The appearance really
masculine.” Unlike him. His egg-shaped face was moist and
smooth, upon a look, he was similar with a girl. Extremely disgusting.

If he could, he also wanted to be like Tian Yang’s as if being carved

by knife deeply engraved facial features, also that kind of agile limbs,
sturdy body stature. No matter what, for him, for the rest of his life
it would be out of question.

Yi? Tian Yang had dimple? But he always did not laugh! Jie Yi felt
that it was a great pity.
 If Tian Yang didn’t always look displeased, when he laughed,
definitely would be extremely good looking. Just like last night when
he let out a smile once in a while.

He liked it more when Tian Yang smiled at him, not always with a
rude bad temper asking him to go home. It was a pity, Tian Yang
even a smile also was too stingy.

Thickening his guts, Jie Yi extended his hand to pull Tian Yang’s
mouth. Forming a line of abnormal smile, he soft ly laughed
afterwards. It had been decided. From now on he would definitely
wake up earlier than Tian Yang every day, to make fun and tease
Tian Yang.

Enough playing, Jie Yi being careful not to disturb Tian Yang,

crossed over his tall and sturdy body to climb down the bed. The air
in the early morning was extremely fresh. But it would be better if
he prepared the morning meals earlier, there was no time to
dawdle. If he didn’t guess it wrong, Tian Yang ought to be the type
of person who wasn’t reluctant to leave the bed. Certainly he
would be up immediately.
 Just as expected, when he was busily preparing to arrange
the cooked morning meals, still wondering where he should put the
food, because the only one table in the house because of being too
old had broken and it was burnt yesterday, Tian Yang right at this
moment walked out of the room.

Except for the first meeting, Yi’r’s hair was being obedient. Apart
from that time, Yi’r always let loose the long hair. So in this time
when Yi’r let the hair flutter, Tian Yang wasn’t so surprise at all.

“You have prepared the morning meals?” His tone was full of
astonishment.

If not firmly believed that there was unlikely to be anyone in

the vicinity, Tian Yang absolutely wouldn’t believe the porridge and
two plates of edible wild herbs was prepared by Yi’r.
 “Eh!” Jie Yi a little bit frustrated said. “I cannot find any table.
Even the bowl and plate are from the yesterday’s piling
up waste material. Tian Yang, today you make some bowls
and plates, alright?”
 “You are willing to eat from wooden eating articles?” Tian
Yang didn’t tell Jie Yi in the carriage there was a few daily use
articles, because he since earlier had anticipated it must be only for
a few days, but he didn’t anticipate......Yi’r actually so adaptable to
the circumstances.

“Can be used is already good. What’s the reason to

complain!” Jie Yi while saying and wiping away the drip from along
his forehead drop of sweat. As he rubbed, on the fair face left a black
trace at once.

“I...... I didn’t know you could go to the kitchen......” Tian

Yang stammered and stuttered in his speech.

“As long as it is edible, it is fine!”

 After his father and mother passed away and he became an
orphan, Jie Yi lived all by himself. Not able to cook, he would have
then just prepare to starve to death. When he entered the Ling
family house, he also helped in the kitchen, up until Ling Shuang
moved him to the yard for a special purpose.

“Looks like it is not bad.”

At least the color was fresh and green. The porridge looks like it
was finely cooked, didn’t have the burnt indication.

“Where do you want to eat?”

Tian Yang took a long piece of cloth from inside the carriage and
spread it on the grass. “How about eat out here?”

“Mm!” Jie Yi smiled. Very interesting!

 Even if he was beaten to death, Tian Yang was still unable to
believe, he actually could be so lame. On his own ranch he actually
sat on the ground to eat a meal. If he was seen by the
neighborhood workers, didn’t know what they would say regarding
him ill-treating
his wife!

But Yi’r spoke and smiled in ease and comfort, not the least bit
annoyed. In an instant, Tian Yang surprisingly stunned. Looking at
the head and face filthy with grime Yi’r, he actually...... stared in awe!

Notes:

(1).To beat the return drum (id): To give up

 Chapter 4

The second day in the grass and mud house, the two had
shared out the work and helped one another.

Jie Yi towards the exhausting work of reconstructing the grass and

mud house, not even the slightest bit considered it as trouble.
When he saw the house step by step changed into an appropriate
place of human habitat, he became even happier!

Meanwhile Tian Yang, in the middle of puzzlement completely

cooperated with Jie Yi’s pace. According to his request, he made a
table and chairs, wooden bowls and wooden plates. Every time
one item of article was done, Yi’r eyes would reveal adoration
and exclai m in admirati on . Cause d him to become eve n more
enthusiastic.

About the time to eat, was precisely the time Jie Yi came in handy.
He happily told Tian Yang about some edible wild herbs. To celebrate
the new home and the utensils, he went so far as to kill a chicken,
cooked it into a sweet-smelling roasted chicken.

This action greatly shocked Tian Yang. He had never seen any
noble lady enter the kitchen, let alone lifted a knife to kill the
livestock. Absurd! Even Lin Xi when she saw blood would make a fuss
about nothing. But Yi’r surprisingly remained calm, moved in agility
to catch the fleeing in disorder cock, and cut its still muttering
throat.
 When Yi’r took the roasted chicken leg and laughingly put in front
of him, Tian Yang’s heart was moved! Heaven, what kind of wife had
he married to?

Perhaps the first impression was the strongest image! Tian Yang
had never suspected Jie Yi’s gender. Although his chest was that
flat,
the collar had been always so high and the clothing material was
not good.

“I am sorry. I don’t know what you like to eat. Just could

randomly cook something.” Jie Yi embarrassedly said. “This
place has nothing at all, can only find some readily available
things, so could only let you have this little.”

“This is enough!” Tian Yang took a bite of that nice smelling

assail the nose roasted chicken. “Unable to make you have
a happy life, is my responsibility as a failure of a husband.”
He sounded it out.

“No problem.” Jie Yi timidly smiled. Because of he stated himself

as husband made him a little bit embarrassed and had a guilty
conscience. “I know you will be successful.”
 “How can you be definite?” Tian Yang curiously asked. “We
don’t know each other that close at all!”

“It is my intuition.” Jie Yi said intuitively. “Willing to suffer

and having an ideal dream person, doesn’t have a reason to
fail!”

“Is it......” Tian Yang was a little bit delightful. So to say, in Yi’r’s
heart, he was a willing to suffer and having an ideal dream person!

“Oh, by the way, how do you know how to cook?”

“When it is needed, naturally I will be able.” Jie Yi replied to

evade the issue.
 “I think you will complain!” said Tian Yang, deliberately tried to
frighten him. “You have to know, the next days to come is
just like this. Now there are only two of us, wait until back
home to the ranch, there will be more people crying
piteously waiting on you for food. The life will be tougher
than now.”
 “No problem!” Jie Yi understandingly glanced at him. “Cooking
won’t be a trouble for me. When will we go home?”

“After 35 days.” Tian Yang vaguely answered. He still wanted to

test Yi’r, wouldn’t be this fast letti ng go his gradually getti ng
hopeless freedom.

In case Yi’r really could pass his test, at that time even if Yi’r
wanted to leave

, he would desperately make Yi’r to stay. But this was still not the
time, although Yi’r up until now, continuously gave him a pleasant
surprise.

“Still needed 35 days?” Jie Yi frowned.

 “Unhappy to live alone with me?” Tian Yang asked with a hint
of hurt.

“Not unhappy.” Jie Yi frankly said. “But there are only we two
big eyes meet small eyes, isn’t it so boring?”

“The life on the ranch only could be described as hard

work. Absolutely won’t be boring.” Tian Yang replied unhappily.
“On the ranch, there are so many works to do, how can
one have the time to say boring?”

“Like what?”

“Don’t think that now is the beginning of summer, a carpet

of green grass, so you think it will be forever like this. When
it is winter, when the sky and land is only a layer of white
snow, in case the ranch doesn’t store the provisions, it
will be damned! That’s why, in the summer and autumn,
must begin to mow the grass store the provisions.”

“To cope with the whole winter?”

 “Mm!” Tian Yang nodded. “Also, most of our ranch’s horses
seem to be wild, have to be tamed beforehand, so that
there are buyers willing to buy.”

“ T a m e t h e h o r s e s ? ” J i e Yi w i d e n e d h i s e y e s . “ Is i t
interesti n g? ”

“This might be the most interesting part.” Tian Yang said

with a smile. “Don’t think that horses are domestic animals so
you underesti mate them. Wanted to completely tame
a horse, must spend a lot of mental and physical effort. Fight
a battle of wits with the horse, contest with strength. Yet
once you showed any sign of weakness, even the horse
would look down on you!”
 “Looks like it’s very interesting.”Jie Yi’s eyes were sparkling
and shining like a star. “I really want to learn!” He thickened his
nerve to raise a demand.

If this was in the past, Jie Yi absolutely would adhere strictly to his
duty, wouldn’t dare to say out loud his heartfelt wishes. But now,
since he was the ranch’s’ ‘mistress’, this little request should not be
too much, right?

“Tian Yang, you teach me how to ride a horse, I will help

you mow the grass. If there are still other works, I could help
you out, alright?”

Help him with whatever works?

Tian Yang stared at Yi’r’s beauti ful face, reminded himself

absolutely may not think to recline. “That’s good. In this place
couldn’t ride a horse, would be laughed at by the others.
We Guanwai people could be said as growing up on
horseback.”

Wait until Yi’r knows riding horses was not such a simple matter,
perhaps she would give more consideration towards staying on
the
ranch.

The ranch’s most difficult to deal with horse, nothing could surpass
his horse ‘Shandian’. Let Shandian trouble her a bit, he didn’t believe
if she didn’t retreat.
※※※※　　

Jie Yi excitedly followed Tian Yang to the stable. This place was an
unfamiliar realm for him. Inside was filled with dry grass, horses,
leather and a fodder mixed scent, the smell was peculiar as well as
comfortable.

He glided his big eyes curiously to look around. The movement

from the corner attracted his attention. He rushed to that
place, happily exclaimed.
 “Tian Yang, come here, look.”

Tian Yang walked closer to look. It was actually four puppies at a

litter. Just like a regiment of ball of fur, opened up their rounded
eyes to look at the coming closer people.

“So cute!” Jie Yi said. Both of his eyes were shining happily. He
without the slightest hesitation lifted one of the puppy into his
embrace, not the least bit mind whether he would make his
changed for riding the horse clothes dirty.

He stretched his hand to gently caress the puppy smooth and

soft fur. Simultaneously gently pressed it near to his neck, using
his cheek he lightly touched it. His unruly long hair followed his
head’s movement to hang down loosely. This formed an
exceptionally good scenery. Tian Yang nearly in a daze while looking
at the scene before his eyes.

But this scene was broken very fast! Hearing Jie Yi shouted ‘Ya’
stretched out the pair of arms, brought the puppy far away from
the embrace, the face still had a line of mark.
 “Biting! So painful.” Jie Yi’s mouth scolded for the pain, the
hand still holding the puppy not letting go. “May not randomly
bite people, it is very painful! Like this, later no one will like
you......”

Tian Yang amusingly watched Yi’r’s long-winded talk to the puppy,

told it it may not attack anyone in the future. Really amusing. If the
puppy could understand, it would be strange. But it was indeed
strange, that puppy actually obediently let Yi’r hold it while
admonishing it, didn’t make any movement.

“Are you alright?” Tian Yang attentively asked.

Seeing that beautiful oval face have a scar, really made people
have a bit of regrettable feeling. Particularly since Yi’r for the purpose
of learning to ride a horse, had especially changed the ugly working
clothes, the light blue riding horse atti re made her even better
looking.

“There is no problem.” Jie Yi laughed without any care, holding

the puppy and stood up. “We can start.”

“Holding it is impossible to learn horse riding!” Tian Yang

pointed at the puppy in Jie Yi’s bosom.

Shandian was not easy to manage with. Too look down on it would
result in great loss. Of course, he was absolutely not worried for Yi’r,
only......Only worried to cause the loss of lives.

“O!” Jie Yi busily let the puppy go, still looking at the puppy
unwilling to let go.
 How cute. So similar with the dog he had raised before. But since
his father and mother passed away, until he worked at the Ling
Family, he had never raised one anymore! Sigh, those happy
days......

“Aren’t you afraid the dog gets your clothes dirty?”

 “Not at all.”Jie Yi shook his head. “After all, after riding the
horse, clothes also wouldn’t be as clean, still would need
to be washed!”

“You know that you have to wash it yourself?” Tian Yang

reminded her.

“You are talking too much!” Jie Yi angrily said. “Tomorrow

morning I will wash. The clothes you want to wash, just let
me wash.”

“Oh!” Surprised at Jie Yi’s reply, Tian Yang could only blankly nod his
head.

Speaking the truth, he truly admired Yi’r! She was completely

unlike what he had imagined whatever kind of noble young lady.
 There weren’t any pampered and spoiled aristocratic young ladies
that would be like her. Calmly rolled up the sleeve, swept and
cleaned the utterly old and broken grass and mud house,
cooked three simple and crude meals, in the evening must have a
bath in the open field, bravely faced the danger of being
attacked by wild beasts; and now, she actually considered to
learn how to ride a horse, also wanted to help him wash his
clothes...... Heavens, he didn’t know what to think anymore!

It seemed like, Yi’r really worked hard to adapt to Guanwai’s

livelihood, to become a good wife for him. Having this kind of wife,
Tian Yang suddenly doubted himself, why did he want to make her
leave?
 Maybe, he should try to accept Yi’r! After all, Yi’r’s face was the
type he liked, even if the figure was a little bit lacking, but still, small
defects cannot obscure great virtues.

“Tian Yang, you said you want to let me ride Shandian?”

“Shandian?” Tian Yang abruptly had a hesitation.

 When he considered letti ng her ride Shandian, he hadn’t
considered accepting her, letting her stay, but now......

Jie Yi’s looked around, all of a sudden stopped at a flashing shining

red furred horse. “Is that it?”

“You really have a good eye!” Tian Yang got rid of his worry.
After all, he was there, didn’t have to be afraid that he
couldn’t control Shandian.

Seeing Yi’r extended her hand wanting to caress Shandian, Tian

Yang turned pale with fright, when he wanted to prevent her, it
was already too late. “Be careful!”
 ly, the person who had the nerve to touch Shandian, was
bitten until stained by blood. Shandian’s temper was violent to the
utmost, didn’t let anyone to get near.

“What?” Jie Yi’s hand was on Shandian’s neck, lightly caressed it,
while he turned to ask Tian Yang.

Tian Yang towards Shandian’s reaction was amazed beyond

description. Could only decide that it with its master that liked
the same type of person! “Shandian seems to like you.”

Hateful! To forget loyalty when in love kind of horse.

In the past, the first time he wanted to get near Shandian, he

had to spend several days. Served every meals to gain its trust. But
Yi’r surprisingly accomplished it as easy as blowing off dust, to the
point it was too much!
 But now since Shandian liked her, it would be good to deal with.
Tian Yang took Shandian out, then mounted the saddle, helped Jie Yi
to mount the horse back, began to explain the tricks of riding a
horse.

“Remember, must let it know, you are its master.”

 “Mm!”Jie Yi sat up high on the horse back, using his feet to lightly
touch the belly of the horse in a short while, Shandian obediently
began to lightly tread with a pace.

“Tian Yang, I made it!”Jie Yi excitedly turned his head, facing

Tian Yang and shouted, the pleasantly surprised tone made Tian
Yang happily lifted the corner of his mouth.

The mishap happened exactly at this moment!

Jie Yi delightful shout had startled Shandian, abruptly with a

sudden force spun, after that raised and leaped. Jie Yi
absolutely didn’t have any precautions, though grabbing the saddle
intended to stabilize, but it was already too late!

His hand and arm hit the ground, ruthlessly tumbled on the field.
 “Yi’r!” Tian Yang’s heart severely seized. Hurriedly jumped
towards the front, dragging him to get out of Shandian’s hoof range.

Jie Yi reclined on the ground, from head to toe as if had been

paralyzed, didn’t make any movement.

“So painful......” Jie Yi groaned with a soft voice.

“I know, good girl, let me check for a while.” Tian Yang

anxiously aided and comforted, the large palm caressed the
both arms of Jie Yi. “The bone is not broken. However, the
chest also needs to be checked to ensure......”

“No......” Jie Yi worked hard to lift the painful pair of arms, gripped
the big hand which wanted to feel out his chest. “Don’t touch
that place.”
 “Now is not the time to be embarrassed. You are
injured, maybe there is a broken bone, couldn’t not check.”

“There isn’t. I didn’t have any breaking bones.” Jie Yi inhaled

several mouthful of air, forcefully burst out a slight laughter, sat
himself up.

“See, I am up now.”

“Ah, then you walk several steps let me see!” Extremely

angry with her stubbornness, Tian Yang couldn’t restrain himself
from mocking.

“O!” When Jie Yi intended to desperately stand his body up, Tian
Yang had taken his body into his embrace.

“Not letting me check, surely cannot go so far as not to

let me take you home, right?” In the end he couldn’t bear it,
Tian Yang still spoke with the residual anger.
 Jie Yi felt relieved and comfortably relaxed his body, snuggled into
his bosom, both of his arms circled around his neck. Honestly
speaking, he had really been hurt by the fall. If not deeply afraid of
being uncovered with all his willpower he propped up himself,
perhaps even to sit up he wouldn’t be able to.

“Tian Yang, I am sorry...... Also, thank you.”

Hearing Jie Yi helplessly say thank you, Tian Yang’s anger towards
his own self was a layer thicker. If Yi’r was using rude and
unreasonable words to point at his nose and cursed him big
time, saying he had harmed her with an untamable ruthless
horse, consequently caused her fall off the horse, he would be able
to open- mindedly accepted it.
 But Yi’r said not even a word to condemn him, not only apologized
to him, also still thanking him, his heart practically ached to death!

Heartache!?

Indeed. Just now at that moment, if Yi’r with such a fall had her
beautiful neck snapped, then he would definitely regret it.
 Regretted he didn’t give both of them a chance, regretted he
let that beautiful and youthful life vanish just like that......
regretted he had wronged a person who could make people be
amazed and pleasantly surprised......His wife.
※※※※　　

“I am sorry, Tian Yang.” Jie Yi said with guilty conscience.

Jie Yi had never thought he would have such a fall. The bone was
not broken, yet the internal organs of the body was as if being
shifted, the whole body’s strength was seeping out, shockingly didn’t
have the strength to leave the bed. Especially the next morning,
from head to toe the muscle was aching to the utmost point.
 “It is nothing. Only making a meal, it is not a trouble for
me.” Tian Yang sat by the bed side, one mouthful after another
he blew cool the porridge, fed it to Jie Yi’s mouth.

“But...... This thing is what I should do.” Jie Yi uncomfortably

opened his mouth, swallowing the spoonful by spoonful porridge
Tian Yang fed him, simply overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

Ever since after he fell off the horse, Tian Yang had been treating
him well to the extreme. Not only all the miscellaneous things
entirely done by him, he also decocted some nourishing medicine
for him. Obviously, the Yun Family already didn’t have much money,
yet he spent it for him. Jie Yi felt extremely uneasy, but he was
also touched. This morning, Tian Yang went as far as to especially
get up very early to make breakfast, and personally feed him.
 The most important thing, Tian Yang was smiling, moreover, he
smiled at him.

Ever since he arrived in Guanwai, Tian Yang treated him very little
with a pleasant countenance. Most of the time was his cold
words and sarcastic comments, if not, proactively urged him to
leave. But
now, Tian Yang didn’t mention about wanting him to leave anymore,
instead, took good care of him in every possible way.

From the time after father and mother passed away, Tian Yang
was the first person who treated him this good. Jie Yi was glad that
he decided to stay, to enable him to have this kind of
opportunity, to know Tian Yang. Only regrettable thing was there
would be a day when his identity got exposed, otherwise, he would
really agree to stay forever, become Tian Yang’s wife.......eh, only a
wife as a status.

“Lessen the nonsense talk. Who set the rules

between husband and wife, that a wife definitely do the
cooking, all of the household chores?” Tian Yang gently said.
“Didn’t you also say, wa nt to help me mow the grass
an d stor e up the provisions? If being divided to such a
clear extent, those kinds of works should be my work,
you just don’t need to help me, isn’t it?”

Jie Yi busily shook his head.

“I certainly will help you. I very much have the strength.”

Jie Yi ensured.

Tian Yang burst into a laughter, because of Jie Yi’s certainness.

“You see!” Tian Yang soft ened his voice. “When there is
difficulty, support each other. When there is problem, help
each other. This is what is called as husband and wife!”

“Husband and wife......” Jie Yi flushed red because of these

words.
 Just a pity he wasn’t Tian Yang’s real wife, forever wouldn’t be able
to become his wife. If he was a woman, maybe he would be able......

Ai ya! What was he thinking of! Jie Yi secretly scolded himself. He

was such a fool, actually fantasized to be able stay for good.
 However, Tian Yang’s words had caused him to be puzzled
endlessly. Didn’t Tian Yang not want a wife? Now, these words
contained what meaning?

Today, he had secretly glanced at Tian Yang for many times. When
Tian Yang didn’t crease his brows, not angry, not mentioning about
wanti ng him to leave, he had become even more
handsome, especially each of his smiles, it seemed like fully filled
with deep and sincere love.

But, that was of course his own illusion. In case Tian Yang found
out he was not Ling Shuang, not even a girl, he would make haste
to chase him away from the Yun Family. Jie Yi couldn’t help but shiver.

Thinking about this, Jie Yi busily touched the pearl bracelet on his
hand, to confirm he was really not at all moneyless.
 “Why always touch that bracelet?” Tian Yang curiously asked.
“Is it very important to you?”

“Mm!”Jie Yi for a moment wasn’t be aware, actually honestly said.

“It is my only asset. Just in case being chased away by you,
it is the only one I can rely on!”

“Your only asset?” Tian Yang narrowed his eyes in wonderment.

Wasn’t Ling Family very wealthy? Father-in-Law could be so stingy,

actually didn’t give his own only daughter a little bit of dowry?

That pearl bracelet was indeed beautiful, but the value was not
high, in eight or nine cases out of ten it was only an imitation. Was it
worth to be so cherished by her? A formidable distinguished family’s
daughter, why towards pearls and treasures didn’t she have
the basic knowledge?

The more he thought, the more he became doubtful. In

accordance to Yi’r’s behavior after she came to Guanwai, Tian Yang
couldn’t help not to raise any suspicion. Maybe...... she was not Ling
Shuang?
 “Ai, no la! I......what I mean is, it is my only thing which has
important value, that it is only...... only a mere worldly
possession.” Jie Yi realized he had made a slip of the tongue,
working hard to justify himself.

“Mm!” Tian Yang remained half believing half doubtful, but what
she had said was also reasonable.

“Tian Yang, what thing do you consider as significantly

important?” Jie Yi with a guilty conscience attempted to divert the
subject of the conversation.

“What thing?” Tian Yang muttering while thinking, recalling his

constantly worn Qilin1 jade. Originally he wore it because he missed
his mother, but after he found out that his mother was not what
he imagined, he still wore it, but only as reminder to himself, to
be cautious not to believe in women anymore, particularly
women of noble birth.

But Yi’r......Tian Yang considered over and over again, finally made
his decision. Just trust her this one time.

“There is no such thing that can’t be replaced!”

“That’s not true. There are things that whatever

object cannot replace.” Jie Yi refuted.

The jade pendant which father and mother gave him, although
not worth much money, but even if the life was being difficult, he
had never had the intention to mortgage it.
 “It might be!” Tian Yang didn’t refute anymore. “After finishing
with the porridge, I’ll take you to the ranch nearby to have
a look!”

ly, he didn’t have the idea to really let Yi’r stay, not only didn’t
allow her to go anywhere, to know other people, but also limited
her moving about area restricted only around the grass and mud
house.
Since now he had accepted the idea that Yi’r would stay for a long
time, the hell whether she was the real Ling Shuang or not, he would
only acknowledge Yi’r as his wife. Then, knowing TianFeng Ranch was a
must, because this would be their future home.

“Really?” Jie Yi cheerfully lifted the tip of his brows. Not long after,
he dejectedly hung his shoulder. “My body......”

Tian Yang smiled, promised: “This time I will ride the horse,
you only need to safely sit on the horse’s back, don’t be
afraid of falling.”

“Thank you, Tian Yang.” He straight ahead gave Tian Yang a

beaming smile.
 Seeing Yi’r’s smiling face, Tian Yang’s mood unfathomably became
good, the doubt about her identity which existed previously,
also completely thrown out of his mind.
※※※※　　

“How beautiful! I have never seen such beautiful scenery.”

Leaning on Tian Yang’s chest, Jie Yi unceasingly sighed in

admirati on. This kind of inti mate pose, not that Jie Yi hadn’t
protested, but Tian Yang stated clearly, if not sitting like this, don’t
ever think about going out of the house, he easily came to terms.

“Indeed beautiful!” Tian Yang proudly stuck out his chest.

“Every time seeing this layer of vast fertile green colored
land, I became determined to own it.”
 This was a man who was able to open up new territory by
breaking the ground, he had that strength. Jie Yi admiringly said:
“You must have used up a lot of hard work, this place is so
wonderful.”

Gazing far into the distance, as far as the eye could see, except
for the boundless green colored field, the extending for several Li
forest,
in between there was a winding stream babbling and flowing,
occasionally a thicket of unknown wild flowers was in full bloom, what
a beautiful mountain scenery.

“Do you like it?”

“Very much!”

“This is our future home.” Tian Yang’s mood was extremely

good, had no time to ponder deeply, he let it out of his mouth.

“Really?”Jie Yi lifted his head suspiciously looking at him. “I can

stay, you won’t ask me to leave?”

“As long as you don’t wish to leave, nobody can force you
to leave.”
 “I don’t want to leave!” Jie Yi sincerely said.

Other than that old house where he spent a short happy

time together with his father and mother, TianFeng Ranch was the
place he loved the most.

Looking at Yi’r’s eyes, Tian Yang believed his words. Seizing the
beautiful as a dainty face in front of him, Tian Yang couldn’t help his
heart from stirring.

“Yi’r!” He called out with a lowered voice, head slowly lowered

closer to Jie Yi’s, close to the point he could smell the scent of natural
wood mixed with the fragrant of the grass on Jie Yi’s body.
 How amazing! Yi’r arrived to this land for only several days, yet
seemed like already to be in harmony and merged into an organic
whole with this land.

“What?” Jie Yi made an attempt to ask.

Tian Yang’s face was right in front of his eyes, he could only
wordlessly gaze at him, couldn’t say anything at all, his heart
abruptly jumped wildly, didn’t know why but became nervous to
the extreme.

“Your face has become better?” Tian Yang’s hand caressed Jie
Yi’s face, with a couldn’t bear to see his pearl like smooth oval face
having that red scar.

“Since earlier it isn’t painful anymore.” Jie Yi because of his

touch shrank a bit.

“Yi’r.”

“Mm?”

“Still remember our agreement?”

 “What?” Tian Yang was so close, close to the point as if talking
right to his ear, how could he remember what Tian Yang had said.

“Your memory is really bad!” Tian Yang lightly scolded.

“Several days to come, we are going back to father’s
place. We need to act like a couple of harmonious
husband and wife.”

“I remember.” Only didn’t understand why now Tian Yang raised

this subject.

“Don’t you think we should do some practice?”

“O!” Jie Yi foolishly nodded his head, thoroughly didn’t understand

how they should practice.
 “Then I will begin!”

Didn’t wait for Jie Yi’s response, Tian Yang already lowered his
head to seize his lips.

“Ah!” Jie Yi let out a low shout out of surprise. His lips unwittingly
slightly opened. This action allowed Tian Yang to be more convenient
in exploring the space between his lips, tongue stretched forward
to his mouth, easily managed it because of his experience, he
kissed him. Kissed until Jie Yi went soft at the knees. With much
difficulty he could free his mouth.

“You......” Jie Yi grabbed this chance to launch his protest, Tian

Yang once again blocked his lips, wished to continue it, kissed him
again and again.

Until he had been completely satisfied, Tian Yang finally let him go.

“Tian Yang, you...... You cannot do this!” Jie Yi gasped for air,
with both cheeks red, said “We......This is not our agreement.”
 “This is what I mean with ‘practice’.” Tian Yang again printed
another kiss. This light touching and the just now lingering intimate
kisses had the same moving and fluttering of the heart. Jie Yi couldn’t
help but open his starry eyes to a complete round shape, couldn’t
comprehend his own reaction.

“You...... Didn’t you say...... You won’t...... won’t touch

me?”

“Only kissing.”Tian Yang shamelessly answered. “Even if

k iss in g w e ca nnot , wh o woul d b eliev e tha t w e ar e
a harmonious newlywed husband and wife?”

“That......” Jie Yi also didn’t understand what should be the life of

a husband and wife. But what Tian Yang said was seemingly
reasonable. “Only kissing, may not do other things.”
 Obviously only being kissed, he was already mentally benighted
and disordered,didn’t know to which way he had been led. If doing
other things, who would know he would here and now reveal
everything or not.

May not. He must guard to the lowest limit.

 “Only kissing.” Tian Yang smilingly agreed.

For the time being, only kissing!

 Chapter 5

When the light of the early morning slanted through the

window, the whole night sleeping so well Shi Jie Yi was in a cheerful
frame of mind. The body entirely free from worry greeted the new
day. When he wanted to spread his pair of arms, to greet the
wonderful new day, by then he realized that he was still being
held in Tian Yang’s embrace.

These several days, Tian Yang, probably because of his physical

strength hadn’t recovered yet, had done everything for him.
He didn’t have to do whatever things by himself. Also, at night, for
the reason of developing the intimate feeling between the two,
insisted on hugging him to sleep, if he happened to remember,
he would perform the causing one’s heart to jump in a
skipping beat
‘practice’.

If not too clearly remembering at that time, Tian Yang with angry
voices and harsh words severely announced, he nearly had a kind of
misconception that Tian Yang was ‘doting’ on him. However, that was
certainly impossible, wasn’t it?

The heart though understood, yet the body had its own will.

Didn’t need a long time, he had been used to Tian Yang’s tight
embrace, used to that attractive voice, warm breath, that
carrying potent liquor accent, a sober and steady type of
heartbeat, also...... that kind of making one’s face flushed red
intimidate kisses, as if it had gradually become the part of his life.

Unwittingly, Tian Yang’s scent just like that flooded all around him,
like the existence of air. Just lifting his eyes, he already could see
that mischievous figure. Without any awareness, he had always
sought for Tian Yang. As soon as Tian Yang wasn’t there, he would
act on his own initiative to search for him. Until he had found him, his
heart could finally be at ease.

To be so dependent on someone seemingly was not so good.

Especially when he himself was also a man. He should strive for self-
improvement. His mind was having this thought, yet Jie Yi was
helpless to extricate himself from this difficult situation, could only
allow himself to rely on Tian Yang.

How could it be like this? Jie Yi with disbelieving eyes looked at the
wearing a sleeping face in front of him. Since when, was he actually
this accustomed to his existence? If this goes on, when the time
he had to leave had come, how could he just walk away?
 “How hateful......” Jie Yi couldn’t help but mumble to himself. Tian

Yang shouldn’t treat him this well, so he wouldn’t have

excessive expectations, wanted to be always with him. Tian Yang
should be like the first time they met, such a villain. However, he had
tasted his tender care, Jie Yi wasn’t sure if he could accept his cold
manner.

No matter what, Tian Yang shouldn’t treat him this well......so

carelessly and haphazardly, so he wouldn’t have that wrong
impression as his wife, forgetting the reality of his own identity as a
man, straightaway indulged in his sweet affection.

The more terrible thing was, often after every one of their
intimate contact, recalling that so-called ‘practice’, his heart gave
rise to a feeling of a sense of loss. Yet, every time he became
aware that he actually had that kind of sense of loss feeling, Jie Yi
became even more unknowing of how he should manage with it.

“So early in the morning, what are you mumbling of?” Eyes
still heavy with sleep waking up, Tian Yang lightly printed a kiss on Jie
Yi’s cheek, asking with a husky voice.
 “Nothing!”Jie Yi you wouldn’t be such a fool to confess, to admit
that waking up so early in the morning, wrecking and turning his
brain, all he thought about was him.

These words if escaped his mout

h, he could imagine Tian Yang would let out what kind of particular
laughter. He wouldn’t be such a fool!

“Is it?” Tian Yang sat his body up, stretching himself. His arms
because of becoming Jie Yi’s pillow for the whole night ached a little.
But Tian Yang wouldn’t foolishly complain for this petty matter.

Waiting for his movement of limbs to become agile for a bit, he

pulled that somewhat anxiously looking at his arm Jie Yi, lowered his
head to cover those enchanting luster red lips, carefully tasted
the sweet-smelling of the lips.

“Ah ya......” Jie Yi still had the time to make a surprised voice,
following next he became powerlessly limp in Tian Yang’s bosom,
closing his eyes allowing him to hug him, kiss him, his whole person
was soft as if melting.

Just this kind of tipsy as if drunk feeling! Hateful. Why did Tian
Yang’s kisses gave him such a difficult to resist feeling, just a little he
already enchanted and lost himself. Hateful, hateful. The poor him
living for seventeen years, there was none who ever gave him this
kind of feeling.

Of course, he had never had an intimate kissing experience,

perhaps this was one of the reasons. If...... If he had a litt le
experience, he wouldn’t get in the state of agitation by Tian Yang,
right?

A long while after, Tian Yang let the two to have the chance to take
a breath. Seeing Jie Yi’s half closed eyes, appeared to be angry but
seemed like bashful, Tian Yang couldn’t help but be intoxicated. But,
his intoxication, very quickly was smashed by Jie Yi!

“Where should I go, so that I can learn to be like you,

having such great kissing skills?”

“You?” Tian Yang shockingly let go of Jie Yi, changed to seize his
chin. The just now still heavy with sleep eyes had vanished, his eyes
were flashing with radiance. “What do you want to do?”

“I only thought......”

“Don’t ever think about it!” Tian Yang raised his voice. “I
won’t allow my wife to have an illicit affair!”

Saying that as if he himself was a very faithful person! Jie Yi angrily

thought, but he didn’t have the guts to say it out loud.
 “Who wants to have an affair?” Jie Yi furiously retorted. “I only
wanted to say, you......” His face abruptly floated up a wisps of
red cloud, awkwardly said. “Your kissing skills are extremely
good, only this.” His voice was low to the point it couldn’t be any
lower.

Hearing this, Tian Yang proudly laughed, the just now anger was as
if as transient as a fleeting cloud.

“You want to learn?” He teasingly whispered in Jie Yi’s ear.

“Don’t worry, I will teach you. No need to go outside to
learn.”

The warm breath, warmed Jie Yi’s tickled and became red ears,
withdrawing his neck wanted to dodge, but in a flash, he again got
pulled back into Tian Yang’s bosom. The overbearing pair of arms
didn’t have the intention to let him go.

“You......” Saying you for half a day, still couldn’t complete the
whole you sentence. Jie Yi could only pause his sulky anger.
 It must be his natural slave character, so that he could be so
useless. As good as hearing Tian Yang’s order, his reaction would be
a beatslower. If this goes on, he absolutely would be eaten by Tian
Yang.

“Don’t be angry!” Tian Yang gently pacified him, deliberately

talked in Jie Yi’s ear, knowing Yi’r towards his voice was powerless to
resist.

Of course, Jie Yi’s body trembled, the ears became even redder!

“Yi’r, I have thought about it!”

“Mm?”Since he was unable to struggle free, Jie Yi simply reclined

on his chest.
 Though his mouth didn’t admit it, he in fact loved it the most, the
feeling when Tian Yang hugged him, seemingly had fully experienced
the blessing, being treasured by Tian Yang.

“You will not leave the Yun family, right?” These words he
had asked a lot of times, but still wanted to hear Yi’r’s reply, again
and again.

“Not leaving.” Jie Yi replied in certainty.

It was already more than ten days, why did Tian Yang still ask
again and again, he really wanted him to go? But his tone of
speaking......Jie Yi was confused. Tian Yang actually wished him to go,
or wished him to stay?

“Yi’r!” Tian Yang tightly held him, satisfyingly laughed. “You may
not leave my side.”
 This obviously was an affirmative sentence, didn’t need Jie Yi’s
answer, for this reason Jie Yi only frowned. Don’t leave the Yun
family, of course must stay beside Tian Yang, after all, his status was
Tian Yang’s ‘wife’, there was nothing strange with it. But Jie Yi always
felt that these words of Tian Yang, seemingly had an ambiguous
sentiment.

Lifting his head, Tian Yang’s smiling face was splendid, in an

instant, Jie Yi actually was dazzled endlessly by the brightness, could
only stare at him in a daze.

Seeing his cute expression, Tian Yang was unable from restraining
himself from lowering his head, forged a memorable hot kiss for him,
kissed to the point Jie Yi’s mind had become a layer of blank space,
only remained a hard to describe heat on his body.

This effect obviously went both-way. Tian Yang’s condition was not
at all bett er than Jie Yi. He could see him inhaling for several
mouthfuls of air, so he could forcefully press down his breathing
spell.
 “Yi’r,” Tian Yang asked with his coarse cackling voice. “We......
What if we became a real husband and wife?”

Once those words were out, Jie Yi felt as if his whole body had been
splashed by a bucket of cold water, washed away his strength
and the entirety of the heat. With all his might he struggled to break
free from Tian Yang’s embrace, retreated until he hit the wall
before he stopped.

“You...... what did you say?”

Tian Yang towards his frightened reacti on was extremely

displeased. But he still restrained his temper to say it once again.
 “I said, what if we become a real husband and wife?”

“That...... what does that mean?” Jie Yi hemming and hawing

asked.

A real husband and wife? Though he didn’t have the experience,

but wasn’t unknowledgeable at all, still knew what kind of things
were done between a husband and wife. He didn’t stay alone in
the Ling’s house servant’s quarter. Should be heard and shouldn’t
be heard, not a small amount had been heard by him, only
hadn’t personally experienced it.

“Just the same as what people called a husband and

wife. What should be done is the same!” Tian Yang
straightforwardly said. “Including producing a male heir to
continue the family line.”

Of course, Jie Yi could only feel this great turn of events was far
from good.

“But...... you said......”

 “I know what I have said.” Tian Yang impatiently cut him off.
“But since now you have firmly decided to stay in the Yun
family, we are also getti ng along well, especially on some
certain aspects, much better than expected! I can’t see
why we can’t be a real husband and wife.”

Jie Yi because of the objects indicated in the talk, couldn’t help but
flush red.

“But...... But......”

“Your speech can’t just be completed even once?” Tian Yang

curled his lips, still unhappy because of Jie Yi’s reaction. His speech
became a bitharsher. “Yes-yes no-no, completely unlike
a young lady from a rich and influential family, even
the slightest bit of imposing manner you don’t have.”
 He was only a servant, how could he exhibit that pressing and
imposing speech manner? Jie Yi felt wronged inwardly.

“I won’t become your real wife!”

The hell with that! The refusing words indeed said with a powerful
and resonating voice. Tian Yang’s face lost its control and angrily
glared at him.

“Why?” Tian Yang questioned him. “As the Yun family’s eldest
d a u g h t e r -i n - l a w , d o y o u t h i n k y o u ca n e s c a p e t he
responsibility of producing a male heir to continue the family
line? At the ti me father noisily shouted wanted to hold
grandchildren, but you cannot have even one child, could I
tell father, because we are only a pretend husband and
wife, so couldn’t have grandchildren forever?”

“But you......” JieYi stuttered again. “You said...... Said you

will never touch me.” That’s why, he could boldly stay.

“I may not change my mind?” Tian Yang said irresponsible

words.
 “But......” Jie Yi’s divine light flashed by. “You already have
someone you love, I don’t mind if you want to bring her
into the family.”

“So generous?” Tian Yang narrowed his eyes unhappilysaid.

“......it can’t be helped......” Jie Yi lowered his voice.

Tian Yang knitted his eyebrows. What was with that can’t be
helped? Really unwilling him taking a concubine, there were many
means to prevent him.

“Don’t you love another one?” Jie Yi suspiciously asked. “Like

this...... if with me you’re doing this thing, don’t you wrong
the other person?”
 He was moving a stone to smash his own leg. Tian Yang absolutely
never had thought, he would be trapped by his own words he said
at that very first meeting. If now he wanted to take it back, he
wouldn’t have the face to admit that everything was merely a lie.
 “Yi’r.” Tian Yang pulled him back, gently hugged him, the palm
slowly caressed his head, whispered to him. “If I said, I don’t have
someone I love, then......do you want to become my wife?”

“......Don’t know......” Jie Yi said with a bit of sadness.

He should honestly have told Tian Yang, he as a matter of fact

couldn’t become Tian Yang’s wife, but...... Tian Yang’s embrace was
so comfortable, this grass and mud house although old and
broken, but the feeling was so warm, he still was unwilling to leave.

“Forget it, we still have a long time. Talk about it next

time!”
 Didn’t get Jie Yi’s definite answer, Tian Yang was disappointingly let
him go. The originally intended to say words was being swallowed
back.

“Today there are things I need to manage on the ranch,

you stay home to have a good rest.”

Could see that Tian Yang was holding in his anger, Jie Yi didn’t dare
to demand to go together, could only obediently nodded his head.
※※※※　　

How strange, it was but less only a person, why......why did it

become so quiet, so lonely......

Tian Yang since morning had left in a fit of pique, didn’t return in

the afternoon, until now, when the sun is almost set in the west,
still hadn’t seen a trace of him. After Jie Yi came to this ranch, this
was the first time he spent his time alone for such a long time.

The ranch was so large, as far as one’s eyes could see was a vast
expanse of grass and sky, the boundless land. All of a sudden Jie Yi
had a false impression that he was left alone. The state he
had become accustomed with. He gathered bothhis hands to hug
himself,
to get rid of the restless feeling, guarding at the door waiting for Tian
Yang to come back.

Ever since he arrived in Guanwai, the previously often hit him

uneasiness as if had disappeared. Why? Just because there
was someone by his side most of the time, at night there was
someone that held him tightly in his sleep, so he could not feel the
uneasiness?

So now, once Tian Yang was not by his side, he had started to feel
uneasy, started to feel afraid? But...... before, when he was in
the Ling family, alsothe people who treated him well were a lot,
like Uncle housekeeper, Aunt Li...... they treated him well, but
the uneasiness had never disappeared.
 Yet, once Tian Yang held him, from the bottom of his heart he felt
the warmth. As long as Tian Yang was a little nice towards him, he
was happy as if flying. This thing......didn’t it mean for himTian Yang,
was a special existence?

But...... He was a man, Tian Yang was also a man. He shouldn’t fall
in love with Tian Yang, one day, he must leave this ranch, so...... may
not allow Tian Yang to become too important.

But, lived together with Tian Yang only for more than ten days, he
in such rapid speed wasused to Tian Yang’s existence, as if he ought
to be by his side. Only now warning himself, wouldn’t it be too late?

“So late already, why still not home yet?” This was his own
ranch, shouldn’t have encountered any problem, right?
 Then...... was it Tian Yang didn’t want to come home anymore?
Was it like that? Jie Yi bit his lips, the restlessness in his heart
deepenedmore and more.

Hateful! Nobody accompanied you to eat, accompanied you to

talk, and was such a lonely thing. The more hateful things were, he
had been since long ago used to this matter, Jie Yi didn’t know
why he
was so helpless to endure it now!

From afar, there was a sound of someone riding a horse.

He is home! Jie Yi couldn’t control his own legs, running forward to

greet, his face couldn’t hide the bursting out smile.

No, not Tian Yang! It was a didn’t know who coming from
somewhere tall and sturdy man.

Jie Yi’s smiling face turned to a doubtful one, staggering

retreated several steps, frightfully staring at the tall and sturdy,
fierce looking person in front of him. This person was covered by
dispersing hair, revealing his sturdy chest, the bronze-colored
skin was glistening under the remaining light of sunset, the bulky
muscle on both arms, powerfully grasped on the reins, from a high
place looking down at Jie Yi.

“You......” The words hadn’t left the mouth, Jie Yi already in a

speed of light ran into the house. With a loud bang closed the door.

“What the hell!” Yun Tian Yi glared at the wooden door in front
of him, couldn’t help but scorn: “Why do you look like as if you
are seeing a ghost?”

“Open the door!”

“Who are you?” Jie Yi mustered up his courage to ask.

“It’s me to ask who you are!”

 Yun Tian Yi pondered, he actually had no need to be so polite, this
place was the Yun family’s property, he was also one of the Masters,
that person inside secretly stayed in the Yun family’s property,
must be a little thief.

Feeling that his conclusion was reasonable, Yun Tian Yi violently

gave it a push, causing the frail door to widely open. The originally
leaned on the back of the door Jie Yi was pushed by the great force,
retreating several steps before he tumbled to sit on the floor.

“Aiya, really sorry!” Once the words left the mouth, Yun Tian Yi
regretted it.

This little person before him was a little thief, may not because she
had a delicate and charming expression, show her pity and
tenderness.

“You...... What do you want?” Jie Yi asked in pain.

“What is a girl like you doing alone in this place?”

“I am not alone!” So frightening, this person upon a closer look

was much bigger, his outer appearance although handsome,
that coarse and wild in disorder hair had greatly reduced his
refined and cultured flavor. It was said that Guanwai’s uncivilized
men could eat humans and drink blood, could it be the truth?

“Don’t come here!” Jie Yi’s hand even if shaking, still forced
himself to smoothly grab the wooden stick on the floor to face him.

How weird, Tian Yang with this person in front of him didn’t have
much difference in height, but he never gave him such an
oppressed feeling.

This little thing wouldn’t be thinking this small wooden stick would
be able to deal with him, right? Yun Tian Yi couldn’t help but laugh in
spite of himself.

Eh? This grass and mud house since when has it become this
clean? Not only the window had become cleaner, the miscellaneous
things on the floor also had disappeared. Also there were a new
table, chairs, andwooden bowls. Looks like it was true that there
were people living in this place, not only one person. Looking at the
table, two pair set of bowls and chopsticks were arranged,
several dishes of green edible herbals was seemingly tasty.
 “Here has nothing to be stolen.” Jie Yi said in high voice.

This person made an uproar to burst in toenter, probably was

a robber. Such a shame he had robbed the wrong place! So stupid.
This house was looking as old and broken, the inside was even older
and broken. Basically there was nothing to be taken. This robber
truly didn’t have good eyes.

“That is your experience?” Yun Tian Yi amusingly said. As it

turned out, she had regarded him as her senior in stealing?

Fine. Looking at her unceasingly shaking cute expression, he would

be just like what she wished-for to frighten her!
 “Who said there is nothing?” Tian Yi pulled a face. “This place
still has you, isn’t it? If there is nothing to be robbed, then I
will just rob the beauty.”

Jie Yi’s face color turned to white. Wanted to rob......rob the

beauty? Did he refer to him? But...... He was a man, even if wearing
women’s clothing. In addition, even Tian Yang hadn’t ever touched
this body, would be touched by this robber’s hand?

No. He didn’t want!

“Don’t come here!” Jie Yi tightly grasped the only tool to defend
himself on his hand.

Extremely amusing! Boldly regarded the lord as guest, stealthily

resided in the Yun family’s property, surprisingly didn’t have the
slightest of nerve. However, seemed like it was not right to say it like
this. She obviously rustling and shaking, yet still bravely faced him,
still brave enough to hold a stick to threaten him, didn’t start to
run away on her heels, also didn’t faint to dispose of a matter,
actually caused someone unable not to admire her.

Tian Yi assumed a posture to approach. Jie Yi busily lifted the stick,

shouted at him to go away. However, it was granted that,
any
showiness but no practical skill was no opponent for Tian Yi. Could
only see Tian Yi agilely launch his attack, stretching his big hand in a
lightning speed, hooking his neck.
　　

“Ah!” Jie Yi only could feel the neck become tight, following next
he was pulled into Tian Yi’s bosom, couldn’t make any movement.

He is dead! Jie Yi wholeheartedly regarded him as a robber, could

only think that this time he definitely was unable to stay alive. When
death was before him, he was still thinking about seeing Tian Yang
one last time, eating with him one more time, letting him hug him
one more time, and......

“Tian Yang......” He couldn’t restrain to call out the name.

 “You know Tian Yang?” Being surprised, Tian Yi loosened his
clamping hand. Maybe things were not like what he thought at all.

Jie Yi frightened and didn’t have the plan to answer him.

At this moment, from outside the door transmitted a sound

of horse hoofs. The two looking at the coming person out of reflex.

Tian Yang from afar seeing the two intimate posture, in an

instant his anger raised up. The horse hadn’t stopped yet he
already jumped down, pulling Tian Yi apart from the Jie Yi by his side,
pushed him to tumble on the floor, seizing his hand, with a
sudden force he launched his fist.

“What the hell are you doing?” Tian Yi still had the time to
incline his face, to avoid the handsome face from suffering a
calamity, but the following fist was getting close to his belly, this time
he didn’t have such a good luck to avoid it!

“You are crazy!” Tian Yi turned his hand over to grab Tian Yang’s
front clothes. “Why do you hit me?”
 “You deserve to die!” Tian Yang furiously pushed aside his
hand. “Dare to touch my woman!”

“I didn’t.” Tian Yi this time could finally understand the

relationship of the woman in front of him and Tian Yang. “Who
would have known that she is your woman!”

“He...... he wanted to rob the fortune and body.” Choked

and coughed for several times, Jie Yi desperately added.

“Rob fortune and body?” Tian Yang’s eyes were covered with
rage. If by any chance he was a little late in coming home, what
would happen to Yi’r?

“I was only joking!” Tian Yi busily explained.

 “Absolutely not funny.” Tian Yang didn’t let him finish his
speech, once again he warned him on his face, this time Tian Yi
didn’t have the time to dodge. “I won’t allow you to touch my
wife. Want a girl, go find one in the town. Don’t try to hit
on Yi’r.”

This time the hit was not light, Tian Yi could feel his gum bleeding.
“I didn’t touch your wife.” He muttered. “Who knew that she is
your wife ah!”

“You lie. I have eyes, can see what you are doing.” Tian
Yang gritted his teeth.

Tian Yi lowered his head to look at his stripped to the waist upper
body, it was awful! “This is a misunderstanding. I swear I didn’t
touch your wife. I just finished my work, that’s why I’m in
this shameful state. Not because I wanted to take
advantage of her...... Besides, it was her who took that
stick to hit me, I am the victim......”

“Tian Yang...... I...... I was afraid......” After calming down, Jie

Yi’s legs went soft, almost fell to sit on the floor, Tian Yang right in
time to hold him.

“This is your fault!” Seeing the condition, Tian Yang couldn’t

help but hurtfully roared at Tian Yi. “You have frightened her!”

“ H o w w o u l d I k n o w y o u r w i f e wi l l a p p e a r i n t h i s
warehouse?” Tian Yi was extremely innocent. “Having a good
house didn’t want to stay, instead come to stay in this
grass and mud house. The Yun family is unlikely not to
have a house, why do you need to move into this broken
house to hide a beauty? Caused me to think who was this
little thief, coming to stay in the Yun family property as a
lord!”

“Shut up!” Tian Yang hurriedly roared. If he said some more,

everything would be revealed. If the things sooner or later would
be exposed, he would rather tell Yi’r himself. “You can get out
now.”

“Fine!” Tian Yi had no choice but to get out. The door almost hit
his high bridged nose.

So she was actually Tian Yang’s wife from Jiangnan.

The people on the ranch were extremely curious about Tian Yang’s
wife. Widely opened their eyes to see how Tian Yang prepared to
treat his delicate and fragile wife. Aft er all, except for Uncle,
everyone completely understood Tian Yang towards his hadn’t met
wife, how much he was ‘fond of’.

Never had thought Tian Yang’s wife since earlier had arrived at the
Yun family, still being hidden by Tian Yang in this grass and mud
house. Truly couldn’t have guessed how Tian Yang mistreated his
delicate and fragile wife. The dishes on the table, absolutely not
made by Tian Yang, then definitely was cooked by his wife!

Looks like, Tian Yang’s wife also not as spoiled as he had imagined!

After all, she still bravely grabbed a stick to resist him! Also Tian
Yang, seeing him burning with jealousy and a nervous face, seemed
like he actually cared for her.

Ha! Ha! He’s going to see some fun in the future.

Wait until Tian Yang brings his bride and returned to the big house,
he would definitely entertain himself. If not, he could not
appreciate the little bride’s splendid expression!
 Chapter 6

“Don’t be afraid. It’s alright now!”　　

Tian Yang rudely kicked close the door, walked to their bed, turned
his body to sit, still holding Jie Yi, he was still trembling lightly out of
fear.

He repeatedly patted Jie Yi, like coaxing a child: “Don’t be afraid,

Yi’r. You are alright now. I am by your side, there is no one
that can harm you.”

“Who is he?” Jie Yi asked in low voice.

 “He? He is my paternal cousin, we could be said as growing
up together. The ranch property, he also has a share.
Everyone is working on the ranch.”

“I haven’t seen him.” Not only him, the rest of the Yun family he
still hadn’t met yet. Jie Yi until now just felt the oddness.

“Because...... He......” Tian Yi resided in the Yun family’s

comfortably large house. Of course he wouldn’t appear on TianFeng’s
ranch’s little warehouse. Just that today didn’t know why, Tian Yi
surprisingly became prompted by a sudden impulse to come
here. Could it be that Tian Hao didn’t do a good job in helping him?

“Eh, Tian Yi just returned from Guannei, of course you

haven’t seen him.” Tian Yang remained calm and unperturbed
telling a lie.
 “All of the men in Guanwai, are they all that big and
sturdy?” Not only Tian Yang, even Tian Yang’s cousin also the same
tall person. The people he saw in the town, seemingly also not short.
 “It might be! But there is always an exception.” Tian Yang
wanted to let Jie Yi relax, jokingly said: “You are so small, in the
future, if we are having our offspring, they won’t be too
tall.”

Jie Yi body became stiff, fell into silence. They...... how could they
have their offspring? At this moment, Jie Yi suddenly became so
sorrowful. He was too selfish. Because his own wish to have a warm
family, he actually deceived Tian Yang like this!

He shrank his body, leaning closer to Tian Yang. Just several days
more, he would tell Tian Yang the truth, couldn’t let Tian Yang bring
him home to the Yun family, to let Tian Yang endure the mocking by
other people. The feeling of ‘family’ that he wanted, Tian Yang
already gave it to him. He also should give Tian Yang a complete
family.

Tian Yang’s warm big palm was gently caressing Jie Yi’s head.
Lovingly and compassionately looking at him. His Yi’r was very brave!
When Tian Yi was being fierce, in Guanwai, there were rarely people
who dared to confront him. But Yi’r courageously took a stick to fight
him?

Tian Yang had never admitted his own foolishness. Yet, why did he
need such a long time to realize that Yi’r was a woman who was
suitable for the ranch, suitable for him? So stupid! He actually
pushed away his own beautiful, bursting with vitality and courageous
soulmate!
 Why, Yi’r was basically not like his mother, not even in the slightest
bit, at least in his barely remembered memory, he had never
seen his mother enter the kitchen to cook, in touch with everything
on the ranch. But Yi’r was not like that. She so earnestly wanted to
be with him having leg and hand callouses working hard to
establish their dream.

Like this, holding her, the feeling was so good. He should have
from the very first night, when she looked like a lost and lonely little
cat, tightly hold her, and absolutely shouldn’t say that he wanted
her to leave foolish talk.

If he was not such a fool, then right now, it should be a different

kind of situation!

Wait until he told Yi’r about the real condition of the Yun

family, told Yi’r that the Yun family since earlier already had the
real big house, just wait until she enter the post, at that time,
Yi’r would be angry, or would be pleasantly surprised?

Didn’t know why, he just firmly believed Yi’r would be furious. No.
He didn’t want to lose Yi’r’s trust.
 Tian Yang tightly held Jie Yi in his arms, tight to the point he could
feel his body temperature. If Yi’r could accept him to become her
husband both in reality as well as in name, then, he would never
lose her.

Taking advantage that now Yi’r for the first time on her own accord
came close to him, the atmosphere was also great, he should
strike while the iron’s still hot, right here and now hold Yi’r, then he
didn’t need to worry of losing her.

“Tian Yang, why didn’t you come home to eat?” Jie Yi asked
all of a sudden.

“There were things on the ranch that held me

up.” “Not because you’re angry at me?”

 “I wasn’t angry.” Tian Yang said with a guilty conscience.
“But...... Maybe a little. I am sorry. I will never leave you
alone again.”

Luckily the person who came today was Tian Yi, if the person who
came was some bad person with evil intentions, then at the time
he
returned, what kind of circumstances would he had faced? Tian Yang
thought in clear mind, he felt the endless fear.

“Tian Yang, stay by my side alright?” Jie Yi earnestly hoped.

“At the place where I reach out my hand I can touch you.”

Only for several days, afterwards...... He would muster up enough

courage, telling Tian Yang everything about the actual state of
affairs. He was greedy! Wanted to have several days more of
memory.

“Yi’r!” Tian Yang with a touched feeling hugged him. Every part of
his hardened heart was melting. Couldn’t restrain himself
from lowering his head to press on those soft, alluring red lips.
 This was a beyond all expectations, charming and bewildering kiss.
The two were offering their true feelings. Seizing this exceptionally
good atmosphere, Tian Yang pulled down Jie Yi’s sash. His mouth
whispering on the side of his ear: “Never, never, I will never
leave you alone again. In the future...... By your side surely
will have me......”

The warm and gentle promises and the sweet kisses, caused
the entire person of Jie Yi to become dizzy, not the least bit had
the awareness of Tian Yang’s movement and the flash of
determination in his eyes. When Tian Yang’s lips moved to his neck,
he could only intoxicatedly lift his head upwards.

Tian Yang on one side was licking Jie Yi’s slender neck, on the other
side, his nimble fingers already began peeling and removing his own
and Jie Yi’s clothes.
 How weird! Xiao Yi’r body certainly was not full and plump,
but......this was really lacking too much! Tian Yang couldn’t help but
become suspicious. Could it be that...... No, Impossible!

To verify his own wild guesses, he took advantage of the time

when Yi’r was still not having any clear awareness, swiftly stripped
down Jie Yi’s pants. Never had thought that sure enough on Jie Yi’s
body, he saw the shouldn’t belong to a ‘woman’ deserved thing.

“What the hell?”

A while after, the house rose up a fit of roar that startled the

Heaven.

“Tian Yang?” Jie Yi in his misty mind had been shocked to clear
awareness. Lifted his eyes to look at Tian Yang, then just realized
that Tian Yang’s clothing was already widely open, revealing his solid
chest. And he himself......

“AH!” His face all red, shouting out of shock, quickly covered
himself.
 When, when had he been stripped off to nearly not having a
thread covering him, only left was his upper clothes which were not
enough to cover his body?

“You are a man!” Tian Yang charged at him.

When he saw that frail and flat chest, originally he still had his
hope, convinced himself, maybe this was only an underdeveloped
body. But his itching to know the truth heart, caused him to
urgently pull down the covering Yi’r’s lower body pants, shockingly
appeared the same thing as his thing, the thing only a man could
have.

This was just as a bucket of cold water being poured on his hip, the
passion vanished in an instant.
 “I......I......” Jie Yi’s face turned white. All of the embarrassment
disappeared immediately. Completely couldn’t think of whatever
words to explain.

“Who are you?”

 Although towards the reality that Yi’r was a man he
detested bitterly, but upon the caught into his sight of pink colored
body, the dripping with bright color of lust face, the just now
vanished passion was surging up again. Tian Yang busily turned his
head away.

“I......” Jie Yi felt guilty incessantly. Could only dare to steal a

glance, then hurriedly lowered his head, the tears was gushing
out from his eyes.

“Don’t cry!” Tian Yang harshly shouted. Already hated his own
self for unable seeing his tears, also hated him for crying causing him
to have a heartache.

“I......” Lifted his eyes to gaze at Tian Yang, the tears began drop
by drop rolling down. “I didn’t mean to deceive you, really......”
 Jie Yi choked and paused while telling the real situation.

“I was thinking that after several days, I will tell the

truth, really, I didn’t intend to keep on deceiving you.”

Tian Yang wanted to believe him, but once he recalled that he

had earnestly accepted, willing to stay together for the whole of his
life, from the beginning was actually a man, the surge of extreme
wrath was unable to be calmed down.

He had ever doubted Yi’r’s identity, also had mentally prepared if

he was not Ling Shuang. But no matter what he had never thought,
Yi’r actually was a man! How to revoke the feelings he had
expended?
 A man! Why should he be a man, to actually have such beautiful
skin and flesh?

Even though now, although thoroughly furious towards Yi’r, the

desire to possess him was still above everything, but...... Yi’r was a
man......
 Looking at Yi’r’s frail chest move up and down, the wetted by tears
face, the half opened bright red lips, the gracefully shaped ten
fingers slightly trembling, a burst of impulse drowned Tian Yang.

Don’t care anymore. Dare to disguise as someone’s wife, must

have the awareness to accompany someone on the bed. Didn’t
give Yi’r a little lesson, how could he vent out his anger!

“Tian Yang?” Jie Yi unconsciously stepped back, Tian Yang’s

wholeheartedly determined face, caused him to be afraid
endlessly. “What do you want to do?”

Tian Yang stretched out his arm, Jie Yi just fell into his grasp, firmly
pressed on the bed by him......
 “Since you dare to pretend to be my wife, then you
should have already been mentally prepared to become
mine right?” Being stared at by him, Jie Yi dared not to shake his
head!

“Good!” Tian Yang heartlessly laughed, then grabbed his thin

legs, pulling his legs apart as much as possible.

“No…..Don’t…..like this……” Jie Yi couldn’t stop trembling in fear,

the pain of the euphoric drunk feeling from just now has gone don’t
know where!

“Quite cute mah!” Tian Yang actually commented. Men should

have the same thing, yet Yi’rs thing is small and very cute, even the
petal-like secret passage, also suffused with pink glow, kept on
attracting his attention.
 Very good, the feeling of disgust which was originally thought to
have did not appear, looks like Yi’r is an exception, then the
matter will be very smooth.

Large palm lightly stroked that although flat yet soft and have
elasticity chest, small and tender as well as exquisite clone, as a
man himself, he could not help but to smile, really cute ah! And Yi’r
hair is
astonishingly soft, his body seemed so slender and feminine.

Looks like it’s not only Jiangnan women who are delicate, men are
not inferior in anyway.

“Tian Yang?”Jie Yi pleaded with his opened watery eyes.

“What, you are not willing?”

“….n…….no…….”Jie Yi lacked of willpower and changed his

words.

With his whole body red as a tomato, still dared to be brave? Tian
Yang disdained thought. Hmph! Then let his face be more redder!
This is the only time in his life where he goes to bed with a man, if do
not play enough then it’s his loss.
 Tian Yang raised Jie Yi’s legs high, pressing against his knee, by
doing this, not only his private, even his secret hole could be seen
very clearly. Tian Yang had seen a woman’s private part countless
times, but it is his first time to see a man’s private part, pink glow,
looks very cute.

“Don’t…..Don’t do this…….” Jie Yi flushed with shame.

“It….It’s so shameful……” Jie Yi knew his body was boiling hot,
only wished to bury his head deep.

Jie Yi’s tender moan let Tian Yang lower abdomen tighten up. At
this critical moment, the pain in his body didn’t allow him to retreat,
Tian Yang simply won’t stop if the work is not done, lowered his
head, his tongue licked Jie Yi’s secret entrance.
 “Ah…..” Jie Yi shuddered, do not know where to put his hands,
can only tugged the thin quilts on his side, softly moaned nonstop.
“There…..There won’t do….So dirty….”

When the lubrication was completed, Tian Yang’s finger started to

pierce into the secret entrance, Jie Yi could not help but weirdly
moan
out loud, his body is hot and painful.

“Tian Yang…..Spare me…..” Jie Yi said continuously.

Tian Yang payed no attention to his pleads, only kept on increasing

his fingers to three fingers, and wriggled inside Jie Yi’s body, an odd
and painful feeling spread through Jie Yi’s heart.

“Tian Yang….No…..Don’t…..So strange……” He breathlessly

pleaded.

When Tian Yang saw that bump to the point of red like a
completely ripened berry core raise up, he could not help but
frown. “Seems to be a bit too much, wait……” He leaned down
in pity and used his tongue to lightly lick on the bright red fruit,
after that placed it in his mouth and gently sucked it.
 Jie Yi is not clear if this counted as comfort, but his chest recalled
with nostalgia that wet, delicate care, every time Tian Yang’s tongue
glided across, he still wanted more.

“Ah….So Ticklish…….” Jie Yi could not restrain and started to

move his body.

“Don’t randomly move!” Tian Yang mockingly patted his pink

butt ocks. "Right, I forgot there is sti ll one more thing,
absolutely may not be left out." Tian Yang licked them in turn,
licked until the two roundish berries perked up. By then, he moved
his mouth away from the front chest, lightly bit Jie Yi's pinkish neck
and earlobe.

The empty large palm, then gripped Jie Yi’s private, hand nonstop
kneading, provoking the innocent desire.
 “Ah…….” Jie Yi didn't know at all, that body part where no one is
willing to expose, is so sensitive. And the being gripped private, is
more fragile and vulnerable.
 “Ah Ah!” Maybe he has an impatient personality, Tian Yang’s
movement increased in his pace, forcing Jie Yi to release his desire
not long after.

“You abrasive evil spirit!” Tian Yang took out his fingers, turned
and seized Jie Yi’s body, kissed his whole body.

“Ah……Ah……”

“Well! I cannot restrain anymore….” Tian Yang took off his

pants, flashed his giant-form, and saw Jie Yi shudder in fear.

Spreading Jie Yi thighs wide apart, Tian Yang aimed at the narrow
hidden passage,by forcing its way, squeezing to get inside, in a short
moment already penetrate thoroughly.
 “Ah…….Ah…….” Jie Yi screamed out loud, large tears falling
down.

It was said that the first time would be very painful. Man or woman
all the same. These words were indeed not wrong. Seeing Yi’r cry so
pitifully, the face still had the hadn’t dried up tears. time, he
definitely would be gentler, wouldn’t let Yi’r hurt, wanted to let Yi’r
enjoy the taste of the whole body melting wonderful feeling. That’s
right, next time, definitely.

Just when Tian Yang wanted to hug the powerless slender body on
the bed, wanted to properly love him, all of a sudden he regained his
right mind.

What was he thinking of? No matt er how good the feeling of

embracing Yi’r, he was still a man through and through, also a person
who had deceived him, how could he make Yi’r to stay by his side
forever?

The rage rose, Tian Yang extended his hand to pull Jie Yi’s hair.
Forced Jie Yi to be unable not to look at him. “Tian Yang?”
 It was exactly this kind of delicate and pitiful face, so that he could
fall even deeper into the pitfall! The more Tian Yang thought about it,
the angrier he became, couldn’t help but want to torment him.

“Embracing a man is only like this, couldn’t be compared to

the woman’s softness. You are truly extremely
disappointing. I don’t want to see you again!” Saying out his
anger, Tian Yang disgustedly pushed him away.

Jie Yi blinked his eyes. Realized the meaning of Tian Yang’s speech,
on the surface of the big eyes showed his desperation.

When Jie Yi’s tears soundlessly slid down, Tian Yang almost
extended his hand to stop it.
 Damn it! He was about to let Yi’r suffer, but it shouldn’t be like this.
Seeing Yi’r cry, he himself also didn’t feel good, his heart
continuously gushed out a guilty feeling......

“From now on, you are not my wife. With the Yun family
also don’t have any relationship.” Deliberately didn’t look at him,
Tian Yang rapidly put on his clothes, forced opened the door and
rushed out.

Just at the moment when he closed the door, he seemed

like hearing Yi’r’s bawling voice, but he still forcefully restrained
himself from the impulse of turning his body to go and hold Yi’r,
ran away from the grass and mud house.
　　※※※※　　
 Bawling for a good while, Jie Yi propped up his weak body, forced
himself to put on his clothes. His body although hurt very much, but
the must put away things, he still put away. Tian Yang had said,
didn’t want to see him again, he was also not part of the Yun family
anymore, not his wife, he also had asked him to leave quickly, as to
avoid when Tian Yang returned, seeing him he would get angry
again.

The sky was already dark. Seeing his expression, Tian Yang was
unlikely to come back!

Like this was also good. If he waited until Tian Yang came back to
chase him out, he might not be able to endure it. Better to
take advantage of the time, leave on his own accord.

Carrying his little to the point of pitiful luggage, changed back to

the originally belong to him clothing. As for Ling Shuang’s silks and
satins, Jie Yi didn’t allow himself to dress up as a girl again in the
future, of course he left them behind intact.

Looking about in all direction, Jie Yi for the very last time was
sightseeing, couldn’t bear to part.
 This place even if old and broken, indeed had given him the feeling
of family. But it was a pity, the first time when he at the spur of the
moment agreed to disguise as Ling Shuang, the ‘family member’ he
thought he could have, not even one he ever met with.

However, never had met was also good, otherwise, he would

be even more unwilling to part.

Opening the door, the pitch-black night caused Jie Yi to have a

frightened heart. Even the Heaven also became his enemy. He
was about to leave, there was no moonlight to show him the
way. The path in front of him was boundless, where should he go?

Don’t care, just go first think later! Couldn’t just go because he

didn’t have any place to go, shamelessly stayed not going. Tian Yang
would be displeased.
　　※※※※　　

The hell with it, in the deep of the night who is crying?
 Yun Tian Yi furiously sat his body up. In the end decided to
surrender to the crying voice, accepted the fate and draped his
clothes over his shoulder, opened the door looking at the field to
see who it actually was!

“You better have a good reason for disturbing

someone’s sleep, otherwise, I will let you see,” angrily talked.
Tian Yi in big strides stood in front of the person who was coiling in
front of his house’s grass fence.

This little bastard, seemingly was not so big, the wailing voice was
indeed amazing.

“So...... Sorry......” Jie Yi sobbing and sniffling lifted his head.

“I...... I didn’t mean it......”
 Because the late night was too dark, the two couldn’t recognize
who was the person in front of them.

Tian Yi could only feel his head became numb, he was unable to
deal with a wailing person.

“Enter the house first.” He sighed, turned his body to enter

the house, in passing he lit up an oil lamp.

Jie Yi was hesitant for a while, then hurriedly followed him to enter.

Compared to the tall and sturdy stranger in front of him, he

was
more afraid to be alone in the pitch-dark night. Alone groping his way
in the dark walked along the path, until he couldn’t restrain his heart
from being flustered, then he went to the direction where there
were humans residing to have a stop, simultaneously let out his
voice to cry.

Only he didn’t put into consideration, his wailing voice could

disturb someone’s peace. Eh! He always created trouble for
other people.
 “You......” Tian Yi turned his body to face the coming person,
when he clearly saw the person in front of him, immediately
stopped his mouth. “Aren’t you......”

At dusk, though he didn’t formally introduce himself to her, but

also been together for a short while, of course he still
remembered she was Tian Yang’s newlywed wife. Only that at that
time she was wearing woman dress, but the her in front of him now
was wearing male clothing.

“It’s you.” Jie Yi couldn’t help himself from retreating several

steps. “I......I am a man, not a woman, what’s more, I don’t
have any valuable things.”

Tian Yi couldn’t help his wry laughter. “Still think that I am a

robber?”
 “So...... sorry...... I forgot for a moment.” The image when he
was being clutched was too strong, caused him to forget for
a moment that this person was Tian Yang’s paternal cousin.

“At this time, you are not with Tian Yang sweetly fondling
and kissing together as an affectionate couple, come to
this faraway place for what?” Eh? He just now seemingly heard a
very important information. “You are a man?” Tian Yi loudly
shouted.

“Mm!”

“But Tian Yang said, you......”

 “I have lied to him!” Jie Yi felt ashamed and guilty hung down
his head. “Tian Yang he didn’t know anything, so that he could
speak like that.”

“Then now......”

“Tian Yang already found out.”

 “He chased you out?”

“......” Jie Yi lowered his head, after a long while he finally said a
line: “This is my deserved punishment. I shouldn’t deceive
people.”

Tian Yi carefully looked at Jie Yi. He seemed to be a youth in his

teen, a good and honest sincere appearance, pair of eyes still
red and swelling because of the just now wailing. If it was said that
he was harboring evil intention to deceive the Yun family, truly
caused people hard to believe. There must be something that he
wished to hide!

“Could you tell me everything?”

“Mm!” Anyway, there was nothing to be hidden anymore.

 Jie Yi told everything from beginning to end, including how he
replaced Ling Shuang in her marriage, the whole thing was given out.
Only left out the thing that happened between him and Tian
Yang, that thing would forever be their most precious memory.

“So it is like that.” Tian Yi nodded his head. “However, your

Young Lady, since she wanted someone to pretend to be
her, why didn’t she arrange for a girl, at least she wouldn’t
be as easily exposed.”

“I also don’t understand.” Jie Yi helplessly shook his head. “I

also told Young Lady so, but she only weirdly laughed.”

Perhaps Ling Shuang deliberately wanted to cause the Yun family

to lose face, letting people know that the Yun family couldn’t even
distinguish a man or woman, actually married a man to become a
daughter-in-law. Tian Yi secretly made his own wild guesses! But,
fortunately the courtesy hadn’t been done, just in time to
discover the mistake.

“You holding this bundle, where do you want to go?”

 “I don’t know......” Jie Yi towards his future was in the dark.
“Maybe going back to Jiangnan!”

“You already don’t have any relatives?” Tian Yi worriedly

asked. “Just said you go back to Jiangnan, who can you rely
on? In addition, do you have enough travelling expenses?”

“When Young Lady left, she gave me a pearl bracelet.” Jie Yi

lifted his hand to let Tian Yi see. “She said I could rely on this for
quite a while.”

Tian Yi carefully looked at it, didn’t have the heart but he still told
him. “This...... this pearl bracelet maybe not be worth as
much money. Your Young Lady perhaps had lied to you.”
 “No...... impossible......” Jie Yi blanked in an instant. Didn’t want
to believe, but also knew that Tian Yi didn’t have any reason to lie to
him.

“You said, you want to go back to Jiangnan, do you know

how long the distance from here to Jiangnan?” Tian Yi
sympathetically said. “Besides, you know...... You have walked
in the wrong direction?”

“Is it?”

“Mm! My working hut is in the north direction, you should

go to the south direction.”

“I am so stupid!” Jie Yi dejectedly clutched tightly the bundle in

his hand.
 He not only didn’t have the originally counti ng on travelling
expenses, but also couldn’t identify direction. Really stupid to the
extreme. Served him right to be cheated by other people.

“Today is your lucky day. Otherwise, usually this working

hut is empty.” Also fortunately today when he went to
the
warehouse to take something he met him, if not, hoping that Tian
Yi was this generous to help someone he didn’t know, it would
take forever!

“I think, you just stay in the Yun family!”

“I can?” Jie Yi’s pleasantly surprised eyes burst out a radiant light,
but soon after that became gloomy. “But......Tian Yang wouldn’t
be happy to see me.”

“This is a matter of course, Tian Yang absolutely cannot

accept being deceived by someone. I think, you just stay
in my ranch, lessen the opportunity to run into him.”

The Yun family property besides the shared ranch, they all of the
same generation, Tian Yang, Tian Hao and himself, each had their
own ranch. At present still in developing, excavating and trading
stage, the scale was not large.

“I can?” Jie Yi pleasantly surprising asked.

“Of course you can.” Tian Yi smiled friendlily. “My ranch even if
not making much money, but only to support you alone is
still more than sufficient.”

“I can work.” Jie Yi anxiously ensured. “I am very strong. No

matter what it is mow the grass, feed the horses, or cook
the meals, sweep the floor, I can do it all.”

“Then I will just take advantage.” Tian Yi raised his brows.

“Late already. Let’s have a rest, you also don’t cry anymore.”

Jie Yi’s face flushed red, softly apologized.

 “As you can see, there is only one bed. Since you are also a
man, then do not need to be too constrained, just cram
in with me! Tomorrow I will take you back to my ranch.”
 “No......No need!” Jie Yi shook his head. Didn’t know why, he just
felt that he shouldn’t share the same bed and pillow with
anybody else, except for Tian Yang. “I’ll sleep on the floor it is
fine.”

“Sure?”
“Mm!”　　

Tian Yi shrugged his shoulders. Not forcing anymore. After all, he

was also not used to sharing the same bed and pillow with a man.

Randomly found a corner, Jie Yi with back leaned on the wall, his
heart could finally be at ease a little. This time he might meet an
honorable person, not only having a place to take shelter, but also
could stay in this Guanwai which he had fallen in love with at first
sight.

Most importantly, his distance to Tian Yang was this close. As long
as he wished for it, whenever he could go to secretly look at Tian
Yang.

Thinking about this, Jie Yi satisfyingly smiled!

 Chapter 7

“Tian Yang, why haven’t you come for a long while?” Lin Xi’s
lithe and graceful posture approached the person who at
present didn’t know why he was being angry. “What, your
newlywed wife couldn’t satisfy you?”

“Don’t talk about him1!” Tian Yang couldn’t restrain himself

from slamming the table. The face still with the unable to
conceal anger. Only that this anger was directed at Yi’r or at
himself, he just couldn’t find out!

“Oh, such great fury?” Lin Xi was unable to cover her delight. “I
haven’t offended you yet!”

Tian Yang regretted coming to this place of Lin Xi. If not because it
was already late at night, he also didn’t have a place to go, he
wouldn’t need to come to this place to listen to a woman’s sour
acid language speech.

Didn’t know how is Yi’r now? After the two being so intimate, just
like that he threw him away it was not too good. Especially when still
thrown out those kinds of words, Yi’r definitely would not feel better.

But if he s ta ye d at th at p lace , it only would add to the

awkwardness. He honestly didn’t know how he should face Yi’r,
facing the fact that he had touched a man.

“Tian Yang,” Lin Xi glued herself to him. “You plan to be angry

for the whole night, or did you come to embrace me?”
 Indeed a woman’s body was much softer! Yi’r though still young,
body unlike a common man’s stiff and hard, but in the end he still
couldn’t be compared with a woman.
 Towards this offering on her own accord red lips, Tian Yang didn’t
reject at all. But didn’t know why, the normally had been used to
flavor of rouge, today had caused him to be disgusted, couldn’t
help but crease his brows, he lightly pushed away his usually loved
the most body.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Xi pouted. “It has been a long while,

you don’t want me?”

“Tonight I only want a place to rest.”

Lin Xi pulled a face. “Humph! Your newlywed wife has drained

up your vitality? If this is the case, why do you come to me?”
 Tian Yang didn’t trouble himself in mentioning the fact that Lin Xi’s
inn was the only inn in the town, only coldly said: “Nobody asked
you to come to my room!”

Accustomed to Yi’r’s compliance and obedience, Tian Yang

suddenly was unable to bear her sharp mouth.

“You have changed!” Lin Xi became alert. “Your wife has

subdued you?”

“Don’t talk nonsense, nobody can subdue me!” Tian Yang

flighty and impetuously said.

“Then when will you carry out your plan, to chase away
that woman?” Lin Xi questioned intensely.

“It is not of your fucking business!” Tian Yang rudely said.

 “You!” Lin Xi was angry to the point of shaking.

“Lin Xi.” Tian Yang unexpectedly adopted a stern countenance.

“You want to marry me, is it because you love me?”

“Not love you, who’s willing to bear your temper.” Lin Xi

coquettishly pouted. “I have been with you for such a long
time, only now you ask this?”

“Just say that in the future I marry you, what is your plan
for our future?”

“The future!” Lin Xi revealed an enchanting smile. “We can

stay in the big house on the Yun family’s ranch.” She towards
that famous in Guanwai mansion could be said as yearning for a
long time already.

“And then, extending my current inn, to bec

ome Guanwai’s largest inn. Wait until everything begins to work

smoothly, then we can stay in the town, together to manage the
inn.”
 “You won’t stay on the ranch?”

“Once in a while to stay for a little while is very nice.” Lin Xi

subtly smiled to appease him. “However, if we wanted to
properly manage the inn, it is better to live in the town.”

“If I said, after marriage, we will stay in TianFeng ranch

ne?”

“Of course we can, only need to wait until TianFeng ranch’s

house has been perfectly built.” Lin Xi made a promise.

“You won’t work hard together with me?” Tian Yang raised
his brows.
 “The works on the ranch, how could we women understand
ah!” Lin Xi lightly dismissed his idea.

“Don’t understand, but willing to sit idle and enjoy

the fruits of others’ work?” Tian Yang mockingly asked.

Suddenly, he stood up, walking out not stopping for even a second.
 “Tian Yang, so late already, where do you want to go?” Lin
Xi anxiously raised her voice to ask.

“Going to the place where I should be.”

“Where is it?” Lin Xi sternly asked. “Don’t you want to marry

me?”

Tian Yang halted his legs, turned his body to face her.

“Face the reality, Lin Xi. We are impossible.”

“Why impossible!” Lin Xi shouted, advancing to hook on Tian

Yang’s neck, madly kissed him. “See, you want me. We are a pair
made in heaven. Besides me, there is no one that can
satisfy you!”
 “Enough!” Tian Yang rudely pushed her away. “For eternity I
will never marry you.”

“Why?” Lin Xi angrily asked. “Because of that woman?”

Her wild guesses finally had come true. Had always felt the Tian
Yang tonight was not the same as before, never had she thought
that actually he came to have a showdown.

“Even if there wasn’t Yi’r, I also will never marry you.”

“Which part of me is lacking compare to that

woman?”
 “Do you know?” Tian Yang gently smiled. “There is someone
willing to live in the grass and mud house with me,
together with me to work hard to build our future, doesn’t
matter how broken is the house, how severe is the meals,
never complain even once. It was me who is a fool, only
because of the reality he has no way to change, I blamed
him.”

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” Lin Xi shook

her head. Since when had the Yun family been ruined to such
degree?

“Don’t understand is fine, I myself understand is enough.

In short, we are impossible.”

“My answer just now is no good, is it?” Lin Xi regretted it

endlessly.

Tian Yang smiled, declined to comment. Turning his body, he left

without any lingering feeling.

Regarding Yi’r, he still didn’t know how should he face him, also
didn’t know how should he deal with their unable to be cut, the still in
disorder feelings. But at this moment, he really wanted to
immediately see Yi’r.
 ※※※※　　

In the middle of the night, the sounds of the horse hoofs were like
the noise of the thunder. The closer he got to the little house,
Tian Yang’s heart became even more perturbed, but also became
even more pressing. He didn’t understand, clearly just several
hours not seeing him, why unexpectedly he so earnestly wanted to
see him.

Fortunately, a little while more he would arrive at the small house!

Arrived outside of the little house, gazing at the pitch-black inside

the house, Tian Yang couldn’t help but be suspicious. Several times
he returned late, Yi’r always lit a small cup of lamp, when he pushed
open the door, the piling up gorgeous smile would welcome him.
 At that time, what bubble forth from his mind, was a surge of
throbbing warmth. The feeling of someone waiting for him when he
came home was truly splendid!

Tian Yang lightened his steps, opened the door and entered
the house. Set upright his ears attentively listening to the inner
room for
movement. But aft er so long there was sti ll not a sound
or whatsoever noise. Yi’r definitely had cried and tired himself
out! Once he recalled the drilling the heart wailing voice before he
left, Tian Yang was no longer able to control himself from igniting
the candle in the room.

When his line of vision fell on the direction of the bed, his face
couldn’t help but be stunned. The all sides were a layer of absolute
quiet, without whatever sound, also without Yi’r with eyes heavy
with sleep smilingly welcoming him. He was in a state of anxiety
then looked around, inside the room was dark and quiet without a
trace of a human. Where was Yi’r?

“Yi’r?”
 He anxiously called out. Yi’r couldn’t be angry at him, with him
playing hide-and-seek? Decided that the room was too small to
hide someone, he turned his body and went straight to go out
of the house. Making use of the slight light of the moon, he
searched high and low for the missing person. But ended up
emptyhanded.

His heart gave birth to anything but reassuring feelings, Tian Yang
once again went straight inside the house, with all his might he
pulled open the wardrobe door. As a result, inside the wardrobe he
vigorously made, only left his own robes, also Yi’r’s woman’s
apparels. That little bundle Yi’r never allowed him to see had already
disappeared.

“Why?” Tian Yang powerlessly sat down.

 Actually why, Yi’r unexpectedly didn’t say even a word just went
away like that? The room remained intact and neat. The meals Yi’r
prepared for him today had yet been graced by the two masters,
still properly arranged on the table. Everything was still there, only
less one person.

In this period of time, Tian Yang was a little bit in a trance. Maybe,
he just needed to wait for a little while more, Yi’r would open the
door and enter, once again unfolded his smiling face at him. That’s
right, Yi’r loves this place so much, cannot say go then just go.

They had lived together for this long while, in this several tens of
days of living together, there was no way it had not the least bit
meaning for Yi’r, he couldn’t leave without the slightest bit of
sentimentally attached feeling. Tian Yang unceasingly convinced
himself.

The him at this moment since earlier had forgotten, that it was
he himself who asked him to leave. Or maybe he unconsciously
didn’t want to remember! He couldn’t believe that he was such
a fool, chased away someone who cared so much for him.
 Forgot who had told him this, falling in love with someone you
hate, is the most desperate thing. Tian Yang now already could fully
experience that kind of desperate feeling. Especially the person
he fell in love with, not only a person he hated from the beginning,
but also a tabooed existence to be loved, doubled the fatal blow.
How could he have a space to turn over his body?

ly, he towards happiness, turned up his nose2. But now, as long

as Yi’r appeared in front of him in this instant, he would
immediately modestly submit himself under Yi’r’s feet, as long as
Yi’r was willing to stay by his side.

That’s right, as long as Yi’r appeared.

 But......Where did Yi’r actually go to? Tian Yang panic stricken
recalled Yi’r’s drifting and homeless state. After losing his shelter
from the wind and rain, where could Yi’r go?

The sky in the south the land in the north3, the world is vast.
Where should he go to search?

Once his pondering reached this point, Tian Yang couldn’t be able
to sit still, charged out the house and leaped on Shandian’s
back, swift as the wind and quick as lightning went to search!
※※※※　　

Searching for the entire night, the result was still a

disappointment. Tian Yang dejectedly returned to the two’s
shared grass and mud house, in his heart existed one tenth of a
thousandth hope, maybe Yi’r would once again appear in this
house, gave him a pleasant surprise.

Upon returning to the house, waiting for him in front of the

house was not the person he expected, but it was a whole face
anxious Tian Hao.
 “Big Brother!” Once he saw him returned, Tian Hao immediately
greeted him.

“What’s happened?” Whole night hadn’t had sleep, adding more

to the anxiety of not finding the person he searched for, caused
Tian Yang to be palled considerably. The tone of speaking of
course wouldn’t be good.

“Sister-in-law ne?” Tian Hao asked right in the face. “She has
gone, hasn’t she?”

“How do you know......” Tian Yang straightened up his body, his

morale was boosted.

“How do I know?” Tian Yang unhappily said. “Ask yourself!

Didn’t you want to do all you’re capable of in order to
chase her away?”
“Yi’r already left!” Tian Yang said in lament.

“You know where she going to?”

“You know?” Tian Yang excitedly asked.

 “Of course I know.” Tian Hao curled his mouth. “She is at our
Yun family’s ranch, receiving father’s overjoyed reception.”

“What?” The turn of events was so rapid, Tian Yang for a while
couldn’t make a response.

“In short, this morning she inexplicably appeared in front

of everybody, professed herself as your wife, because of
a stage of illness had delayed the journey. I was
almost shocked to death by her, I thought that the bride
had a twin. But now knowing that you had lost the bride, I
know that she is the rightful bride.”

“Yi’r went to Yun Family ranch?”

 “Isn’t her name Ling Shuang?” Tian Hao didn’t understand who
was this Yi’r his Big Brother kept on saying, couldn’t help himself
from correcting him.

“Impossible......”

Tian Yang absentmindedly muttered to himself. Refused to believe

that Yi’r was such an adept at scheming kind of person. Knowing that
he would be chased out by him, surprisingly brazenly went
straightforward to the Yun family asking for shelter from the old man.

Was it like that? No wonder he searched the neighborhood

again and again, still couldn’t find him. So Yi’r had gone to the
Yun family......

But, Yi’r really thought that by doing this he could stay in the Yun
family? Impossible, since now he had seen that Yi’r was actually not
more than a greedy for riches and rank kind of person, he wouldn’t
let Yi’r stay, he wouldn’t let him have his wish fulfilled.

“The impossible things often happen.” Tian Hao not without

showing sympathy said.
 Big Brother certainly never had thought that his scheme would
not be a success. Still let the sister-in-law passed through the hall
into the inner chamber4, already seen by the father. time, if
wanted to chase away that woman, perhaps they had to spend a
much longer time.

“In a word, father wants you to go home at once,

prepare to pay the courtesy with sister-in-law.”

“In his dreams!”

Cursing in low voice, Tian Yang turned the horse, went to the
direction of the Yun family’s ranch in a rush.
※※※※　　
 Yun Shi Zheng sat on the big chair in the main hall, waiting for his
eldest son to come home.

He carefully looked at the girl in front of him, knew that she was
definitely not a fake one. Her eyebrows, eyes, facial features,
extremely alike with his old friend, the grace disposition also quite
the mother’s tendency. The problem lied in, why did she delay for
such a long time, also only brought one personal maid with her
upon her arrival.

To be honest, when the bride delayed for more than half a

month sti ll hadn’t arrived, in his heart, he already had the
worst of estimation, maybe his old friend decided to break a
promise of marriage. However, now that Ling Shuang had
arrived, all of his doubts had been eliminated.
 Ling Shuang carefully measured her surroundings. Once again
regretted her own reckless action. So father indeed didn’t lie to
[Link] Yun family really was Guanwai’s wealthiest family. Looking at
the valuable inarticulate antique vase, the meticulously
carved chairs, on the wall were the paintings and
compositions of the
famous expert, compared to Ling family was not inferior at all.

If only she knew this, she wouldn’t have resorted to that foolish
action of eloping with another man, also wouldn’t come to this bad
end of being abandoned , the person and the mone y both
disappeared. That damn Xiao Bo Yu, once he got the gold, silver,
treasures and jewels in his hands, actually in a blink of an eye even
the shadow couldn’t be seen anymore. The Heaven still pitied
her, she still had some jewelry which she wore, thus she could
come to the Yun family.

What’s more to be thankful was, the originally disguised as her

Xiao Shi Zi didn’t know died at where, surprisingly nobody felt weird
upon her arrival, instead, they joyfully welcomed her. Even if curious
about Xiao Shi Zi’s whereabouts, yet she wouldn’t question her good
luck.

Now just needed to wait for her hadn’t met face to face husband
to arrive, if he also had the same handsomeness as the just now
seen brother-in-law, then it’s truly Heaven had treated her kindly.
Heaven knows, obviously he was her brother-in-law, already could
make her heart jump in a quickened pace. They said that her
husband compared to the brother-in-law, was much more
superior, didn’t know he would be handsome to what extent!

While drowning in her delightful thoughts, she heard from the

outside the sound of horse hoofing and neighing. Ptooey5! This
place though beautiful, but still had the unsatisfying part in the
midst of beauty. The domestic animals how can they be so near to
the main house? Just wait unti l she became the Mistress of
the house, definitely would keep those domestic animals apart.

A man treaded in a hasted pace and entered the house. As soon

as he entered, his eyes impatiently floated to all direction, as if he
was searching for something. Following on his back, indeed the
earlier she had seen brother-in-law.
 Aiya! Her future husband indeed was valiant and formidable-
looking, incomparably handsome. Be qualified to be with her,
Jiangnan’s utmost beauty. Didn’t put into consideration her
former action, Ling Shuang satisfyingly let out a smile.

Looking at his impatience, Ling Shuang on her own accord stood up

and stepped forward.

“The person?” Tian Yang couldn’t hide his urgent pressing.

“Isn’t this the one!” Yun Shi Zheng pointed at Ling Shuang.
“She is your wife. Although when in the Ling family, they
already helped you out by standing in your place to pay
the courtesy, but this is aft er all your important lifelong
marriage. We must be a bit prudent. Choose one fine
time lucky day, to allow you two to formally pay the
courtesy.”

Tian Yang rapidly turned his body, looking at the only woman in
the room whose style of dressing was of a high rank noble, inter-
forehead was brimming with spoiled aura. That’s right! This was
correctly the Ling Shuang he had imagined. This time need not to
doubt, she wouldn’t be the fake.

The problem was, why did she appear in the Yun family? Didn’t she
elope with another man, why appear now?

Then Yi’r na? Where did he go? The one in here was not Yi’r. Tian
Yang didn’t know if he should sigh in relief or should be worried.
Maybe just having the both of them! On one side he heaved a
relief sigh, knowing that Yi’r was not that kind of person who was
greedy for wealth and honor, but on the other side, he
contradicted himself wishing that Yi’r would appear in this place, to
avoid his heart from clutching. Didn’t know what had happened to
Yi’r in a place he didn’t know of.

Ling Shuang being looked at by Tian Yang’s swift and fierce eyes
was a little bit uncomfortable. Couldn’t help but blush and hang
down
her head, bent her body to give a courtesy greet: “Husband.”

“I dare not accept the honor.” Tian Yang said in sarcasm. “I,
Yun Tian Yang, how could I have such good fortune to be
your husband.”

“That......” Ling Shuang helplessly gazed to Yun Shi Zheng’s

direction, hoping he said something in her aid.

“Tian Yang!” Yun Shi Zheng pressed his brows together. “What
are you saying. This marriage matter has been known by all,
now you cannot say no!”

“This daughter-in-law is the one you want, not me.” Tian

Yang said without holding back. “If you really like her so much,
why don’t you marry her yourself!”
 Regardless of the affairs with Yi’r, this woman was simply the clone
of his mother. First, eloping with another man, now, from a
thousand Li away came to the Yun family wanting to marry to him.
She truly considered him, Yun Tian Yang, as that easy to be
deceived?

Didn’t matt er what father wanted, or what kind of big deal

marrying her, he absolutely would never marry with this kind of
woman.

“You...... You want to anger me to death?” Yun Shi Zheng

stroke his own chest, breathed with much difficulty, his whole body
as if lost the strength sat on the chair. “At...... At first, this
marriage matter was you yourself said that you agreed.
I...... I didn’t force you.”
 This unfilial son. With much difficulty he feigned his illness to press
him to marry. Now that the bride already was in front of them, how
could he allow him to say no?

“Father!” Tian Hao rushed forward, patting Yun Shi Zheng’s back,
letting him have a smooth breath. “Big Brother, just cease
your
speech.”

“Oh! Please you guys don’t quarrel because of me!” Ling

Shuang suddenly made a sound, delicately and pitifully covered her
face with her hands and started weeping. “Tian Yang, I beg you,
listen to father, alright? I was bedridden for a quite a
while, relying on the small wish to unite with you in a
marriage to support me, so that I can come to this place.
Tian Yang, this place is very beautiful, also you are just
the same as the handsome husband in my dream, we will
live happily, I will be the best wife for you, really, I promise!”

“As for what father had mentioned in the letter, wanted

to make this place more elegant, I will exhaust my strength
too, to make this place become even more cultured, to
make father happy.”

“This house is not good enough?” Yun Shi Zheng anxiously

asked.

“Not that bad.” Ling Shuang smiled to reassure. “Only......” She

looked around and nitpicked. “We should put more distance
with the domestic animals in the ranch, also, the
decoration...... Should be more exquisite.”

This woman!

“Not allowing you to move whatever things in the

house.”
Tian Yang roared.
 Tian Hao also wordlessly looked at Ling Shuang.

“That’s enough, Tian Yang.” Yun Shi Zheng said to pacify. “In
the future, this will also be Shuang’r’shouse, you should let
her to give it a try. This also is my main reason in asking a
marriage from the thousand Li apart Jiangnan, want to
change the Yun family ranch to become more refined.”
 “I will not marry her!” Tian Yang once again reaffirmed.

“You will, moreover, within this near future.” Yun Shi Zheng
remained unshakeable.

Tian Yang deeply breathed in a mouthful of air, decided not to

make a meaningless struggle with his father. He turned to ask Ling
Shuang: “You contracted an illness for a period of time?”

“That......That’s right!”

“Couldn’t see that you are having any illness.”

“My body consistently getting well.”

 “They said that among your marriage company, there is
still one page boy, where is that page boy now?”

Ling Shuang originally intended to flatly deny Xiao Shi Zi’s

existence, but seeing Tian Yang’s complete confident, all of a sudden
she perfectly understood his intention. Curse him. So he actually
knew about Xiao Shi Zi, then certainly had totally found out the
whole truth from Xiao Shi Zi. No wonder he firmly unwilling to marry
her.

Humph! Now he intended to uncover her, letting her not find

a place to hide out of shame?

Yun Tian Yang, you are too naïve! She, Ling Shuang, now that she
dared to appear in the Yun family, of course already had the
accordingly response. Don’t look down on the determination of a
perso n who had fallen into impasse . She was holding the
determination of the last struggle of dying person.

“Are you talking about Xiao Shi Zi?”

“Xiao Shi Zi?” Tian Yang creased his brows. What kind of
addressing people is this, isn’t it a bit too looking down on
someone?
“Why didn’t I see him?”

“Don’t mention him again!” Ling Shuang all of a sudden in a

rage. “That wicked slave, unexpectedly taking advantage
when I was bedridden, taking all of my valuable things
including my dowry and sold them out, caused me and Ju’r to
fall into impasse. Fortunately we still have a little
jewelry, that’s why we can come to Guanwai.”

“There really is such a wicked slave?” Yun Shi Zheng was

furious to no end.

“Father, you wouldn’t blame me for emptyhandedly

entering the Yun family, would you?” Ling Shuang pairs of eyes
wetted by tears while asking.
 “Stupid child, how can I blame you?” Yun Shi Zheng
benevolently said. “We will find that wicked slave, demand
justice for you.”

Ling Shuang was performing an excellent show, immediately

gained Yun Shi Zheng’s sympathy, not at all doubted her words.

Tian Yang gritted his teeth to the point of itching. Angry to himself
for spinning a cocoon around himself6. If from the very beginning he
wasn’t up to dirty intentions, after fetching Yi’r straightforwardly
went home, from earlier the whole truth would be revealed. How
would Ling Shuang have had the chance to invert right and wrong, to
reverse Yi’r, a very good and honest pure hearted person, become
so guilty of unpardonable evil?
 What’s more regretful, he didn’t have the standpoint to refute

her. Didn’t matter if father found out his original plan, how

angry he
could be. But he had lost the strongest witness, how could he
uncover her falsehood?

Yi’r, Yi’r, where are you actually at? As long as Yi’r standing in front
of everybody, that gentle and mild manner, there wouldn’t
be anybody who doubt his words.

As a matter of fact, obviously when hearing Yi’r speaking, would

cause people to subconsciously feel happy and carefree.

“Shuang’r, trudging a long distance has tired you out, I will

let auntie Li to take you to rest first, alright?”

“Thank you father!” Ling Shuang obediently said.

When she turned her body to enter the room, her face was
having an indescribably satisfaction.
 “Tian Yang, choose a day, you two will get married.”
Concluding the speech, didn’t leave Tian Yang a chance to answer,
Yun Shi Zheng walked to the inner room.

“Big Brother.” In the twinkling of an eye, the hall only remained

Tian Yang and his litt le brother. “Congratulati on for the
marriage.”

“Save it!” Tian Yang agitatedly brushed away the hanging on his
shoulder hand. “You don’t understand anything.”

“I do don’t understand.” Tian Hao shrugged his shoulder. “I

don’t understand why she could appear here, but since
that you two have been living together for more than ten
days, also she has passed your trial and doesn’t cower,
doesn’t return to Jiangnan, I couldn’t see what your reason
is for not accepting her!”

“Of course, if she could change her personality, maybe she

will be better. However, I don’t understand why she
must invent this illness issue......”

“Because,” Tian Yang roared. “The previously came bride is

not Ling Shuang. The person who lived together with me for
several tens of days is not her, like this do you

understand?” “What?”

Tian Hao this time was truly completely struck dumb!

 Chapter 8

Moving a pile of tied up forage grass into the storehouse, Jie Yi

heaved out a mouthful of air, wiped the sweat on his forehead.
Staying in Tian Yi’s ranch was already for several days, he also
gradually adapted to the ways of living on the ranch, even Tian Yi
often praised his toughness to be remarkably good, with his outward
appearance being widely divergent.

Compared to the days in Jiangnan, the days in Guanwai was not

easy at all. For whoever, living was a task of severe challenge. Jie Yi
little by little understood, the reason why Tian Yang wanted to chase
him out from the very first meeting. Honestly speaking, Young Lady
indeed didn’t suit this kind of dry and dull as well as unchangeable
life.

At first he was still worried, if by chance he ran into Tian Yang in

this place, offended him and caused him to be annoyed then
he would be damned. But staying in this place for several days,
the people he ran into basically only a few, only by then he
knew, Guanwai’s land was vast, wanted to run into Tian Yang, the
chance was not as great as what he had imagined.

Regarding this, Jie Yi was a bit glad, but more than that, was the
stuffing the heart indescribable disappointment. Towards that
one night with intense emotion, though he wanted to forget, but the
more he tried, on the contrary, the more it lingered in his heart.
Just like now, as long as he had spare time, he would think
about Tian Yang…… and that got out of hand night.
 Faintly, Jie Yi had already understood, in his heart, Tian Yang had
occupied a special position, but up until now, he still didn’t want to
probe how special he actually was?
 No, perhaps it was merely his own misunderstanding. Maybe
because he had lost both his father and mother, suddenly lost
the support, didn’t have the place to ask for warmth and
blessings. He had been alone for too long, so that he eagerly
sought for a share of selfless comfort, a share of the warmth he had
lost.

It must be like this! Jie Yi thought to convince himself. If not

making this kind of excuse, how could he face the reality of falling in
love to a man? Especially, that man basically was under his
deception, that’s why he was being warm and showing his care.

May not think about Tian Yang anymore. May not think about his
kindness anymore. May not rely on him anymore. From the day he
left, they had become two people with no connection at all.
Heart would feel the pain, but it was simply because of the fear of
facing the future loneliness. However, he may not be afraid,
because in the future definitely much more of loneliness and
tranquility would accompany him.

From now onwards, he must get through his own life.

“Jie Yi.”

Yun Tian Yiriding a horse from a far galloped closer. When he

arrived in front of Jie Yi, agilely he flipped down from his horse. The
nimble and agile limbs caused Jie Yi to unceasingly gasp in
admiration.

Guanwai’s men seemed like really proficient in horsemanship! Jie

Yi inwardly made a decision, one day, he would also be as skillful.
 “Yun Big Brother!” Tian Yi’s age fully ten years older than him,
Jie Yi felt it would be improper to directly address him by his name,
thus he compromised by calling him as Big Brother.

“Jie Yi!” Tian Yi’s voice was with an urgent tone. “You honestly
told me, with regard to Ling Shuang let you to replace her in
 marriage matters, you lie or not to
me?”

“Why should I lie to you?” Jie Yi rounded his eyes didn’t

understand then asked. “What has happened?”

“Ai!” Tian Yi paced back and forth. “I do believe you wouldn’t lie
to me, but…… Ai, the

n, what’s with that matter?”

“What actually has happened?”

Tian Yi stopped his pacing back and forth step, facing Jie Yi and
said: “Ling Shuang has appeared, that who eloped with
someone Ling Shuang has appeared.”
 “What?” Jie Yi was shocked with no end.

“Don’t not believe.” Tian Yi unhappily said. “Not only this, in

three days’ time, she and Tian Yang will pay the courtesy
to become husband and wife.”

“Is….Is it?” Jie Yi’s heart gave a throb, a layer of stunned blank
space.

Will get married? Of course! The two of them, one was the young
master of a ranch, with a dazzling the eyes countenance, the
other one was Jiangnan’s number one beauty, with the outshine
the moon and put the flowers to shame beauty, originally was the
couple who were made for each other. His and theirs status,
basically in all eternity was worlds apart.
 There was a pang of sorrow in his heart. All of a sudden he clearly
realized, his feelings towards Tian Yang, no longer that kind of
deceiving oneself as well as others while relying on him. But why?
The Heaven if had a little mercy on him, shouldn’t be at the moment
when he was about to lose Tian Yang forever, made him realize what
the significance of Tian Yang was to him.
 So many times, in the middle of the night secretly watched his
deep in sleep face, in the day secretly cast a sidelong glance at his
extremely good looking face. Earnestly hoped for the Heaven to let
him forever stay in this place, stay by his side. But now……

That night’s passion and touching emotions seemed like could only
become an everlasting memory, because…… Tian Yang would get
married soon!

“Just like this? only a line of ‘is it’?” Tian Yi discontentedly

said. “You don’t want to go with me to unfold the truth
to them?”

For a moment, Jie Yi was nearly under the impression, Tian Yi had
seen through his heart.
 “Why……Why must unfold the truth?” He stutteringly asked.

Tian Yi weirdly looked at him.

“You’re crazy, how could not unfold the truth? You forgot,
Ling Shuang had eloped with another man, in her heart since
earlier there is already someone else, who knows if her
body already had someone else or not?”

This not in the least avoiding the using of taboo words kind of talk
caused Jie Yi’s face to become very hot as if burning.

“Your face why become red? I’m not talking about you.”
Tian Yi scornfully said. However, Xiao Jie Yi’s flushed red face was
truly good looking.
 “Young Lady, she……” Jie Yi became hesitant, didn’t know
should or should not say it.

If he not remembered it wrongly, Young Lady said that she already

had Xiao Young Master’s flesh and blood, that’s why he agreed to
replace her, allowing their love found a way to come
together.
But…… Young lady not just appeared, but also intended to marry
Tian Yang. For a moment, he also couldn’t be certain what was the
true nature of the things the Young Lady told him that time.

Maybe, the pregnant matter also the same with the pearl
bracelet, it might be only to scare him!

“I think Tian Yang also unhappy to marry her. You just go

to help, show yourself to uncover Lin Shuang’s true face, let
Uncle to drop the idea forever!”

“This….. Like this is no good?”

He didn’t want to be the stick to break the mandarin duck1 kind of

person. Since now the Young Lady had regretted it, most probably
had no place to turn to, so she could come to her most
detested Guanwai. The flavor of having no place to turn to, he was
the clearest of it, how could he let the Young Lady to be like him?

Moreover, if he really didn’t want to marry Young Lady, Tian Yang

should have his own plan! The first time he arrived, the set pattern
of behavior that Tian Yang pulled out, could be untouchably put to
use!

“There is nothing good.” Tian Yi was without the heart to

sympathize. His mind also had his own consideration.

This time, if Tian Yang got married, the next one who would be
forced to marry must be him, his age compared to Tian Yang was
much older, then how could he escape it?

“Now you come with me to Yun Family’s ranch, tell all the
truth to Uncle, Uncle will not force Tian Yang anymore.”
 “Just do it tomorrow!” Jie Yi retreated for a step, pushed
away his extended hand. “Now already late, you…… You
haven’t eaten yet!”

“That’s right.” Tian Yi stroke his belly, the stomach was rumbling
with hunger.

At first when he took in Jie Yi, he still didn’t know that he actually
had the hand of a good cook, every meal that he cooked
was delicious to the utmost, caused him every day when it was the
time to eat, would timely appear in front of the dining table.

“Have you prepared the meals?”

Looking at his whole gluttonous face, Jie couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Since long it has been prepared, just waiting for you to

return.”

“I have troubled you!”

 Not only helping him manage the household duties, prepared
the three times a day meals, even the ranch work he also diligently
did. Taking in Jie Yi really too profitable.

“You don’t have to make yourself so tired, I take you in not

to let you die from overwork.”

“I am not tired.” Jie Yi smiled. A little bit tired, so in the night he

could easily sleep, didn’t have to think about the thing he shouldn’t
think of.

Didn’t know why, seeing Jie Yi’s smile, Tian Yi couldn’t help but
have a pang in his heart. If there was a problem, Jie Yi would stuff it
in his heart, it made him unable to help him! Each time seeing him
forcing his smile, he would be very sad.
 A person like Jie Yi who had such a good and honest heart, only
thinking about making an effort to work hard, should be happy
forever, but why didn’t Heaven think so. Ai! If Jie Yi wanted
happiness, it would be better if he could give him. But happiness is
something that must be sought and pursued by one’s self, not
something that could be given by others!
 ※※※※　　

Again, it was a night to leave! Only that this time the luck was not
bad. The moon was bright, as if illuminating the way for him.

Jie Yi carried a small as possible to carry bundle wrapped in cloth.

Once again set out on a journey. Only this time, he probably wouldn’t
have another good luck, to have a kind-hearted person like Tian Yi to
take him in. Jie Yi shook his head, telling himself not to be afraid.

Didn’t want to be a breaker of other’s predesti ned by fate

marriage, also not strong enough to see with his own eyes Tian Yang
get married, he could only go. But to where? No matter where,
there wouldn’t be any warmth to the point of causing him to
remember with longing embrace, only Tian Yang’s side was the
best, but that was not a place he could stay, Tian Yang loathed him!
 The land in Guanwai as if no need for money to buy, every ranch
was excessively vast. Jie Yi spent a good while before finally getting
out of Tian Yi’s YingYang2Ranch.

This time he was a bit clever. The first time he arrived at the
YingYang Ranch, he had spent a period of time to explore it all the
way through, to avoid the crisis of losing his way.

The problem was, YingYang Ranch and TianFeng Ranch were

adjacent. Jie Yi found out his steps was unconsciously going towards
the grass and mud house where he had lived in before.

Just to have one more look! Only to see it one last time, he
would just leave. From here to Jiangnan or Jiangbei, to a faraway
journey. In this lifetime wouldn’t see Tian Yang anymore, wouldn’t set
foot into this containing beautiful memories grass and mud house
anymore.

Stepping into the fence of bamboos which surrounded the yard,

Jie Yi with a palpitating heart gazed at the tightly closed door. In
his illusion, as if he once again saw him and Tian Yang sitting in front
of
the table, talking and laughing in ease and comfort while eating food
kind of scenery. He loved it the most hearing Tian Yang talk about
the distant future of the ranch, the glistening black eyes were bright
and full of expression, it was as if there was nothing he couldn’t
achieve.

Suddenly, from the back of his body the sound of the horse’s hoof
was heard. In a trance, Jie Yi felt like he had returned to the
habitual life when he stayed in the grass and mud house. Once he
heard the sound of the horse’s hoof, he would rush to the door,
welcoming home the tired out by the whole day’s work Tian Yang.
Jie Yi’s face was wearing a smile, looking at the appeared under the
moonlight man.
 At the time he could see clearly the man on the horse, Jie Yi’s smile
froze.

Not him. Not Tian Yang!

Tian Yi leaped down from the horse, standing upright in from of Jie
Yi.

“The hell with you, why didn’t you say a word just ran
away?” He just scolded right in the face. “You scared me to
death. In the middle of the night couldn’t find you, I thought
something happened to you, fortunately I recalled you have
a runaway record previously!”

“I……” Jie Yi guiltily hung down his head.

 “Why do you want to go?” Tian Yi with his fingers lifted up his
head, made use of the moonlight to observe his expression.

“I….. I couldn’t uncover Young Lady.” Jie Yi said in much

difficulty.

“Why?”
 “Young Lady….. after all, had been kind to me. I couldn’t
requite kindness with enmity.”

“Obviously solely for the matter regardless of you as a

man taking her place in a marriage, this is enough to repay
great kindness great virtue.” Tian Yi thought it was not worth
doing. “Besides, obviously she put forth such a nasty plan,
wanted a man to substitute in a marriage, from this we
could see how bad this woman’s intention was. Fully
aware that if being exposed, Yun Family’s reputati on
could end, she sti ll persisted in doing so. Just say that
she needed to find someone to substitute her, she
ought to find a girl ah! Perhaps there was still a possibility
of having an everybody is happy ending. But Ling Shuang did
not. Jie Yi, this woman’s heart is completely bad!”
 “No … .. Maybe … .. It is not like that … … ” Jie Yi said in
stammer. “Young Lady, she…… she couldn’t find anyone
else……”

“Jie Yi!” Tian Yi grasped his hand sincerely said. “You don’t
want Tian Yang to be happy? You think, marrying to Ling
Shuang he would be happy?”

“I…..” Jie Yi was speechless for a moment.

He of course wished Tian Yang to be happy, but he…… didn’t know

who could give Tian Yang happiness? Only knew that the person who
could give Tian Yang happiness wouldn’t be him.

Just when the two holding hands looked at each other

without saying a word, the door from their back make a ‘ya’
sound and opened. The person who came out from the door,
caused the two jumped out of surprise.

“Who……” Tian Yang’s asking word was frozen, pair of eyes

widened staring at the holding hands under the moonlight people.
 This…… What’s with this situation? Why could Tian Yi be together
with Yi’r? Yi’r…… Tian Yang knitted his brows, with large steps he
strode to the front, tore open the holding tightly together
hands, pulled Jie Yi to his side.

Tian Yang keenly gazed fixedly at Jie Yi’s clear and pure pair of
eyes, the rather apparent delicate melancholy and pretty face,
all kinds of flavors in his heart mixed. No matter what, Yi’r finally
had returned to his side, despite of the just now act which made
him to be unhappy.

The time at this moment was condensed and at a standstill. The

only remaining was two people looking at each other in the eyes,
remained silent for a long time. After a long time, Tian Yang finally
broke the silence.
 “How are you?” It seemed like not that well, a little bit pale, wan
and sallow.

“…… I’m fine……” Jie Yi looked at his still the same splendid like a
beautiful star eyes, said a light word. “I am sorry, I will leave at
once.”

Tian Yang tightly held Jie Yi’s arms, didn’t intend to let him go.

“How can you be together with Tian Yi?”

“It is Tian Yi Big Brother who took me in.”

“Is it?” Tian Yang was extremely upset.

 He searched high and low in the neighboring desolate places
and wilderness, but never crossed his mind to search at Tian Yi’s
ranch. “You not afraid of Tian Yi?”

Jie Yi shook his head. “Tian Yi Big Brother is a good person.”

“Then that’s good, I have always been worried……”

 “Don’t worry.” Jie Yi hurriedly ensured. “I am just passing by,
will leave at once. time, wouldn’t appear in front of you
anymore.”

Tian Yang couldn’t help but make a wry laugh.

Is this retribution? Yi’r actually urgently left him! In his heart rose
thousands of words, just didn’t know how to say it. But his intention
to let Yi’r stay nevertheless had been definite.

“Tian Yang.” Tian Yi called out to remind the two people about
his existence. The atmosphere between these two people was
really unusual. The world of the two seemingly didn’t allow any
other person to intervene, even he had become invisible.
“Aren’t you getting married soon, why do you sleep here?”
 Tian Yang’s susceptible observation realized that the body in front
of him became stiff, his heart was delighted. But he only furiously
glared at Tian Yi, angry that he mentioned the pot that didn’t boil3.

“I will not marry with whomever.” These words were said to Jie
Yi.

Jie Yi’s heart was touched. Widening his eyes to look at him.

“If you said don’t get married then just don’t get
married, then today Ling Shuang wouldn’t be sti ll
staying at Yun Family’s ranch.” Tian Yi said mockingly. “I also
wouldn’t need to take such a lot of trouble to recover this
cold and ruthless, want to just go without saying anything
rotten fellow!”
 While saying, he stretched out his hand to pull Jie Yi’s ear, caused
Jie Yi to have a spell of pain, couldn’t help but recoiled his body. Tian
Yang saw his state, with a sudden force slapped his hand away.

“Don’t touch Yi’r!” Tian Yang said angrily.

“I am a person he’s indebted to, why couldn’t I teach him a

lesson?” Tian Yi simply couldn’t take it moving back his hand. “Jie
Yi, say it, right or no?”

“Right!” Jie Yi hurriedly nodded head.

Tian Yang upset to the extreme that Yi’r obediently followed

other people’s words, Yi’r…… Yi’r could only listen to his words!

“In the future, I will take care of Yi’r. Not troubling you
anymore.”

“But…” Tian Yi queerly said. “Haven’t you chased Jie Yi out?”

“That was only a stage of misunderstanding.” Tian Yang

anxiously said.
 “Is it?” Tian Yi face was showing a keen interest. This Jie Yi’s
charm couldn’t be looked down upon. Even Tian Yang also liked to be
close to him.

“Alright, alright, the night is already so deep. I don’t have

any idle time to drag this matter with you, we just go to
rest first, tomorrow we take Jie Yi to Yun Family, to uncover
Ling Shuang’s falsehood, is that alright?” Tian Yi
proposed a suggestion.

“You go home. Yi’r stays.”

“Jie Yi?” Tian Yi asked him.

 Not at all giving Jie Yi the chance to react, Tian Yang pulled him to
enter the house, closed the door with a loud bang, kept Tian Yi at
the outside of the door.
※※※※　　

The sky was slightly bright, Jie Yi blinked his eyes, little by little
turned his body, on a pair of warm and solid crook of the arms he
woke up. Quietly half propping his body, the pitch-black beautiful hair
disorderly hung down, the limpid eyes fixed askance at the sleeping
peacefully person on the other side.

Last night after being grabbed by Tian Yang to enter the house, he
didn’t say anything, only threw him to the bed, he himself also
climbed on the bed, firmly hugged him, just like that until the
daybreak.

It seemed that it had been ages. Hadn’t seen Tian Yang’s such
serene and peaceful expression. Jie Yi couldn’t help but let out a soft
and sweet smile. Unwilling to wake him up, but he only realized it
when he wanted to get up, those pair of arms firmly circled him,
even in his deep sleep state also didn’t slacken a bit.
 Couldn’t bear but smile again, Jie Yi inclined to lean on that broad
and sturdy chest, with his cheek he felt his regular heart beating.

Mm! Jie Yi was comfortably rubbing lightly. How warm! His whole
body and his heart altogether became warm.

Briefly lifted his head, stared at the distinct edges and corners of
the eyes, the heroic and awe-inspiring handsome face, involuntarily,
he recalled that illicit night’s ordeal! Was it those thick but
moderate lips, towards him made a lot of embarrassing things?

Unable to press down the pounding like a drum intense

heartbeat, Jie Yi stealthily pressed near his lips, gently stole a kiss.
Though this was merely a light kiss, yet enough to make Jie Yi’s
heart be thrown into confusion.
 The chest under his fingertips came through a spell of
undulating, Jie Yi terrifyingly opened his eyes, he could see Tian
Yang’s lips at first slightly raised, then as if couldn’t no longer bear
it, at long last made a laughter sound, opened the bright lively eyes.

“You……You don’t sleep?” Jie Yi’s cheek was like an erupted

volcano. Rapidly heated until red.

Extremely…..Extremely embarrassing. He actually stole a kiss on a

man, also a man who had declared that he hated him, Jie Yi could
only feel embarrassed to the point of death, couldn’t bear but lift
the quilt to cover himself. Just like a turtle shrank back its head.

“Yi’r.” Tian Yang sat himself up, taking him as well as the quilt
into his embrace.

Jie Yi was restricted and unable to move. For a while didn’t know
whether he should lean close to his bosom, or make an effort
to struggle. Wanted to lean on him, also didn’t know if Tian Yang
would allow him or not? Wanted to throw him off, his heart was a
little unwilling.
 In the end, Jie Yi still chose to comfortably hang on his bosom, after
all if Tian Yang didn’t allow, definitely would push him away.

Tian Yang lightly held with both hands the person in his bosom and
kissed his beautiful pitch-black hair gently, sighed contently a
mouthful of air. “Yi’r, sleep well?”

“Mm!” Yi’r answered with a soft voice, the fair and clear face was
embarrassed and flushed red. “I slept so well.” Having Tian Yang
by his side, he was really fine.

“Me too.” Tian Yang contently said. “Yi’r, don’t go again,

alright?”

Jie Yi at first didn’t reply, after a long while he finally said: “You
are getting married!”
 “You mind?” Tian Yang asked to probe his answer.

Jie Yi responded by struggling to get free, Tian Yang busily

embraced him.
 “I will not marry, alright?”

“Why not marry?” Jie Yi’s voice was being muddled by the cotton
quilt. “You don’t want to marry Young Lady, isn’t it because
since earlier you already have a lover, why do you ask me?
Who am I to you?”

“Your memory is indeed strong.” Tian Yang awkwardly said.

“It is better if I leave.” Jie Yi said in sorrow.

“Don’t go.” Tian Yang strengthened the hold of his hand. “There
is no such thing as a lover, that was only to deceive you.”

Jie Yi from the quilt let out his head. “To deceive me?”
 “Mm!” Tian Yang lamely cast his head sideways, on his face
spread out a dubious flush. “At first, I only wanted to let
you know the difficulties then retreat.”

“Then…. what about now?” Jie Yi asked in a light and soft voice.
“Why…. Why do you want me to stay?”

“Don’t let me say that word.”

“That word?” Jie Yi with expectation asked.

“Yi’r.” Tian Yang took his head to his bosom, like this so he could
have the courage to say it. “I am very cunning. Didn’t hear you
say it out loud, I also do not want to say it first. But I can
tell you, I like to be with you, with you by my side, I will be
very happy. I want to for the rest of my life together with
you eat, hold you when sleeping.”

“…… Me too.” Jie Yi admitted in a soft voice.

“These several days couldn’t see you, I……” Tian Yang

carefully formed a proper line to clearly express his feeling.
 “Very lonely.” Jie Yi murmuringly said.

“Right.” Tian Yang lowered his head, the deep eyes were filled
with affection. “I was very lonely.”

This erotic low chant as well as Tian Yang’s eyes, caused Jie Yi to
have a spell of numbness, he unconsciously gazed back at Tian Yang.

“You look at me like this, you must be responsible for the

consequences.”

When Jie Yi was about to ask what kind of look, the next second,
Tian Yang’s lips already printed on his lips.

Those pink lips upon a taste was so fresh and tasty, caused Tian
Yang to recall the flavor of that overwhelming with joy night, giving
him a peculiar stimulation and pleasure. While Yi’r’s unconditional
obedience, was good as pouring oil on the flames to ignite his desire,
allowing him to be even more unable to stop even though he
wanted to.

Quite a while, Tian Yang finally let those slightly swollen pair of lips
to have the chance to gasp for breath. Seeing Yi’r’s star like eyes half
closed, as if angry yet bashfully beautiful in appearance, Tian Yang
was again burnt by a burst of fire. moment, again he returned
to those enchanting red lips.

“You……You can’t be like this……” Jie Yi muttered his protest in

a whispe r. “We … … a re men , betwe e n me n m a y not
do……this kind of affairs.”
 “Who decided that?” Tian Yang by Jie Yi’s ear said with a low
voice. “Who told you to look at me like that, I just can’t hold
myself.”

“Non……nonsense……” The hot breath disturbed his sensitive

earlobe, tickled Jie Yi to contract his neck to hide, but his body since
earlier was being firmly held by the pincers, where could he hide?
 “Where is the nonsense?” Tian Yang teased. “Just now I
haven’t finished my words! I don’t only want you to
accompany me to eat, sleep, but also want you to
accompany me to do some more intimate matters.”

“More……More intimate matters?” Jie Yi knew the heat on his

face had risen to a higher point.

Truly far from good, every time he met Tian Yang, could only
stammer talk, the response was so slow, it would be a wonder if
not being eaten by Tian Yang.

“Isn’t it just like what had been done that night ma!” Tian
Yang dropped a sensual hint by taking his big hand to lightly stroke
at Jie Yi’s buttock cleavage, appeared intended on exploring all the
way.
 “No…… May not like this, that…… that only could be done
between husband and wife,” Jie Yi from head to toe scurried with
a fit of shiver, not in the least persuasive hesitatingly said.

“This is what’s called as nonsense!” Tian Yang wickedly said.

“As long as there is a mutually like each other person,
already could do that kind of things.”

“But……” This word ‘like’ attacked Jie Yi’s not the least bit strong
heart’s defense. His words contained a crying sob: “You said
embracing me was not even the slightest
comfortable, compared to a girl was very much
disappointing……”

“I was talking nonsense.” Tian Yang painfully admitting his

fault. “Actually the taste of embracing you was good to
the utmost point. That time I was thinking about doing
you one more time, only that you seemed to be in extreme
pain……”

“At the beginning was still fine, then…… then ……

became…….very painful……”
 “Of course I had hurt you!” Tian Yang said with heartache.
“Give me one more chance, this time I definitely will do a
good performance, will not make you hurt again.”

“Don’t……Don’t talk about this improper talk on the bed!”

Jie Yi embarrassed until he didn’t have the courage to lift up his head.

“Not on the bed, then talk at where? These are my

sincere words.” Tian Yang talked with an evil influence. “Don’t
worry, this time, I will definitely make you very
comfortable, very very comfortable.”

As he spoke, Tian Yang began to carry out his promise.

Tian Yang pulled Jie Yi’s hand and put it on his under belly, Jie Yi
once came into contact with his burning hot lust the whole face in a
flash became red. “You…….You…… how ……” He couldn’t even
complete his sentence, fingers couldn’t help but tremble, even
more the part that got in touch with Tian Yang’s burning hot
passion……

Tian Yang pulled Jie Yi’s hand and put it on his lower abdomen,
once Jie Yi came in contact with his fiery desire, his face turned red
instantly.

“You….You….How…….” Even his words were incomplete,

fingers shook nonstop, yet still touched Tian Yang’s fiery hot place.

“I want you! Yi’r.” Tian Yang held his hand and massaged
nonstop.

Yi’r knew in his heart that this was wrong, but towards Tian Yang’s
feelings to him, how could he refuse?
 Forget it! Forget it! This kind of relationship cannot be sustained,
do not have a so-called future, they cannot be together for a long
time, these warm and peaceful days are only an unreal illusion.

That being the case, then let him take advantage of the moment
of
happiness in front of his eyes, staying by Tian Yang’s side, anything
Tian Yang wants to do, then let Tian Yang do!

If one day, Tian Yang wanted him to leave, he should have enough
happy memories.

“Tian Yang……” he trembled while holding Tian Yang desire,

obeyed Tian Yang’s instruction, gently played with it, let Tian Yang
gasp in delight.

“I love to hear you calling out my name.” Tian Yang buried his
head in Jie Yi slender collar, leaving a hickey on the crystal jade skin,
also took the opportunity to feel Jie Yi’s collar’s intense beating pulse.
This is all caused by him……
 “Really pretty ah……” Just using a little more force, a red mark
will emerge on the white pale skin, as if spring petals were falling on
the snow in winter, really matchlessly gorgeous.

“Scared?” Tian Yang reached out and set aside the hair on Jie Yi’s
cheek, revealing a perfect face, saw a glowing red tide on his white
skin, long eyelashes along with the dusky dawn, under his eyes drew
a shadow, shimmering eyes turned left because of the sunlight,
his confidence and complete dedication is clearly written.

“Do not need to be afraid.” Taking a closer look at the

handsome face in front of him, tall body is so strong, as if able to
carry all the suffering, Jie Yi could not help but stare.

“Yi’r……” Jie Yi’s complete trust caused him to be in high spirits,

Tian Yang could not wait any longer as if it was his first time.
 He lowered his head and kissed the pink lips, both hands on his
snow-white skinchest, “Touching you is very nice….. Incredibly
smooth as silk.”

“You will love it, I will treat you nicely, let you be very
comfortable….” Tian Yang muttered. This is his first time
“serving” his lover, gently kissed him slowly, for fear that he will
hurt him.

Indeed as Tian Yang said, he liked his gentle care and carefulness
towards him, the feeling of pleasure filled every part of his brain.

Jie Yi closed his eyes, his body trembling, trying his hardest to
coordinate with Tian Yang’s movements, he wished Tian Yang could
gain happiness from his body.

Tian Yang’s heartached, got up and kissed his hair, his forehead,
his eyes, his lips, every part of him, not sparing even his belly button,
to get rid of the resistance by instinct.

“Tian Yang, you….”Jie Yi bit his lips, seeing Tian Yang’s thick
dashing eyebrows knitted together in a frown made his heart
ache, he must be trying his best in enduring now! “I…..I can, you
do not need to endure……”

“Yi’r, you…. Silly, I can tolerate!” Such a pure thoughtful

thought, how can his heart not ache, not show tender affection to?

Jie Yi shook his head. “You do not have to endure.” He said

again.

“Silly!” Tian Yang held Jie Yi, only caressing his desire, using his
lips and teeth teasing Jie Yi’s red lips, his hand slightly used force, Jie
Yi breathe was mess up.

His hand kneaded with more skills, Jie Yi’s body trembled in
instinctive physiological response, he parted his lips and breathed,
a beautiful and sultry posture, Tian Yang’s tongue probe into Jie
Yi mouth and started stirring, Jie Yi unable to bear his whole
body trembled.

Tian Yang’s eyes filled with desire stronger and more by a hundred
times than Jie Yi, he coaxed: “ Exactly like this, Yi’r, release
yourself, feel your body’s desires.”
 Jie Yi’s whole body had been kissed by Tian Yang, even the private
parts were not spared, especially the private place, was loved by
TianYang for a period of time. Tian Yang’s tall desire, seized with a
sudden impulse grabbed Jie Yi’s hand, touch his burning hot place
because of Jie Yi.

Looking at the scorching hot pulsing in Jie Yi palm, Tian Yang

panted and requested: “ Yi’r, kiss my here, I want to see
once the appearance of you kissing me here.”

Because it is a request from Tian Yang, Jie Yi could not refuse. His
throat dry, simply could not imagine one day he would be doing such
things with a man, but he still slowly slid down, complied with Tian
Yang’s request, kissed his place full of desire. Only because of
excessive shyness, he did not know how to continue.
 Tian Yang pulled his hair, continued to teach him how to do it.

“Yes, be gentle, do not use your teeth….yes, gently

suck, do not use force……” He let out a gasped of satisfaction,
obviously Jie Yi’s unskilled stimulus also made it difficult for him to be
patient. “Yes….Exactly like this…….”

Having a foreign matter deep in his throat made it difficult for Jie Yi
to handle, silvery white liquid overflowed nonstop into his mouth,
the obscene breathing under the flashing in dim light, letting his
whole person look much alike to a peculiar scenery, quite different
from the usual pure appearance.

Looking at such amorous Yi’r, Tian Yang let out a low and hoarse
roar, suddenly flipped Jie Yi’s body, rapidly and completely entered
Jie Yi’s body, the feeling of fulfilment made him unleash his animal
personality, couldn’t help but to ram harder into Jie Yi’s inner body,
no rationality in considering whether Jie Yi has adapted to yet.

“Ah………” Being entered suddenly, Jie Yi could not help but to

loudlycry out in alarm.
 Fortunately, after just now moisturizing, Jie Yi’s tight passage was
already wet, the pain was not that intense. And Tian Yang kissed his
lips, kissing the falling tears, because of the pain, without him
realising, whispering dearly, causing him to gradually forget the pain.

Jie Yi could feel Tian Yang’s presence,the fiery heat in his body told
him that Tian Yang’s tension, along with the pain once again
lightened, he slowly moved his lower limbs, immediately heard Tian
Yang gasp.

The corner of Jie Yi mouth curved, happy that he could have such
an impact on Tian Yang, could not help and let out a pleasant sound,
his body followed Tian Yang close strong body , cooperated with his
fast movement, swing his body, began to enjoy the pleasure
from sex.
 The person’s reaction in his embrace, made Tian Yang lose all self-
control, move more vigorously.

“Yi’r, I’m coming, can?”

“En……” Jie Yi only nodded hysterically.

“I want to shoot in you, can?” Tian Yang pleaded.

“As…..As long as you like…..”

Letting out a low groan, a stream of warm current was being shot
out, Jie Yi could only feel his inner body was heating up, couldn’t help
but follow in the wake of seeking the highest peak. The sluggish
feeling after the liberation, caused Jie Yi to close his eyes, very fast
had entered the dreamland.
 A long long while afterwards, Tian Yang held in his breathing spell,
lowered his head to look at the Jie Yi in his bosom, he since long ago
was already deep in his sleep. The fair and clear face was extremely
exhausted but having a relieved smile.
 His strong arms were assuming a protective gesture embracing Jie
Yi’s waist, taking his slender body closer to his solid chest, followed
with burying his head into the black and shiny hair, smelling his good
smell. After that the two people while intimately embracing each
other, together drowned in a deep slumber.

 Chapter 9

Looking at the building situated on the top of the small hill, with
the grass and mud house he had lived in was widely different in
luxurious and size, the four connected courtyards became one,
the middle courtyard also had the structure of a rock garden and
flowing water which was imitated from Jiangnan. Jie Yi could only
dumbfoundedly stare at the scenery in front of his eyes, a spell
of
melancholic sentiment surrounded him. 　
 Tian Yang surely could see Jie Yi’s blanked face like being
fascinated expression, cursed with a soft voice, he lowered his
head intended to give him a little explanation.

“I didn’t know you hate me to such extent!” Jie Yi moved his

eyes away from the large house in sorrow.

“It was not like that.” Tian Yang anxiously explained.

Damn it! His reckless actions, now must meet the retribution. If not
because this morning’s atmosphere was too wonderful, he
temporarily forgot to make clear his falsehood towards Yi’r, now he
wouldn’t cause Yi’r to have the wounded feeling.

“With me lived in the grass and mud house, truly had

wronged you!” Jie Yi once again confirmed the two’s social
standing, indeed was as far apart as clouds and mud.
 “Don’t say it like that.” Tian Yang held onto his hand. “You
know how much I love living there.”

“I don’t know.” Jie Yi with difficulty raised a temper and pushed

away his hand. “Just enter! Go and settle the problem that
caused you to headache.”
 And then he could retire after winning merit!

Tian Yang’s heart hurt, really wasn’t use to Jie Yi treating him this
way.

Barely just entere d the house , Ling Shuang’s piercing,

reprimanding voice was transmitted. “Shi Jie Yi, you still have the
face to appear?”

Jie Yi upon hearing the word flinched for a bit, then

straightened his body to reply.

Ling Shuang with her myriad bearing walked forwards to them,

said with a despising manner of speaking: “Father,” she said
towards the coming to the side Yun Shi Zheng. “This person is the
slave who came with my dowry, when I was bedridden and
needed him, he without saying a word just ran away, still
taking away my dowry and personal adornments. Never
had thought that today, he still has the face to come out.
Father, you certainly must make the decision for me.”

Jie Yi shocked and baffled looking at the striking an attitude Ling

Shuang. Originally he towards exposing Ling Shuang still had some
hesitation, but at the present, what’s with that?

“I……” Jie Yi still hadn’t clearly thought how to speak, Ling Shuang
greeted his face with a slap, to make him stop his mouth.

“Why do you hit him?” Tian Yang extremely angry, furiously

glared at Ling Shuang, as well as pulled Jie Yi to his back.

Consoling the enduring the slap cheek, Jie Yi could only blankly
stare at the making threatening gestures Ling Shuang. Without
good cause he suffered a burning hot slap, the excessive shock
caused him to be unable to think over.

From small until he grew up, although didn’t have the highly
privileged status, but there was no one ever raised a hand at
him.
The first time being hit, the opponent was a delicate woman, Jie Yi
for a moment didn’t know whether should or should not get angry!

Seeing that he couldn’t conceal the worried face and the

floating sparkling mist on the pair of his eyes, caused Tian Yang’s
heart to be seized tightly. When his eyes fell on that bright mark
on the cheek, his face became dark.

“Very well, the lowly wicked person ac

tually brings a lawsuit first.” Tian Yang’s voice was cold and
freezing to the point of frightening. The eerie reticent expression
even more terrifying, caused Ling Shuang to have a ghastly pale
face.
 Ignoring her panic appearance, Tian Yang pulled her right hand.
The great force caused Ling Shuang to cry out of shock.

“Was it this hand that hit Yi’r?” Tian Yang laughed without
whatever emotion, the strength of his palm nearly knead broken
Ling Shuang’s wrist.

“Father……” Ling Shuang pleaded for help while she broke into
cold sweat.

“Tian Yang, let her go.” From the shocked state regained his
conscious, Yun Shi Zheng busily opened his mouth to rescue.

He didn’t approve beating people, however considering Shuang’r’s

bitter experience, the wrath was not unreasonable, couldn’t blame
her. But the child that was beaten, honestly unlike Shuang’r said as
tricky slave.
 “Humph!” Tian Yang extremely angry let go her hand, still found it
difficult to hide his wrath.

As long as he caught sight of that slap mark, his flames of fury was
burning even more vigorous. This deserve to die a thousand knives
woman, actually had the audacity to hit his Yi’r!

“Are you alright?” Tian Yang asked with an immeasurably

gentleness, inviting Yun Shi Zheng to cast a sidelong glance.

Honestly speaking, from Tian Yang small until now, he had never
seen Tian Yang towards whoever talked with calm and gentle
manner, to the point he spoke with a cold manner. If this was
towards his future daughter-in-law, that should be very good!

“I am fine.” Jie Yi spoke to console the angry person.

He was not angry at all. Tian Yang was actually very angry, he
couldn’t help but because of Tian Yang’s reaction feel happy. The
earlier resentment when he first arrived at this house had vanished.
 “Young Lady.” Jie Yi mustered up his courage to meet Ling
Shuang head on. “I don’t know what had happened to you,
but I do know, the forcefully picked fruit wouldn’t be sweet.
Tian Yang doesn’t want to marry you, marry to him will not
bring you happiness.”

“A slave babbling what kind of nonsense?” Ling Shuang’s

face was red out of anger.

“Yi’r is not a slave. He has become our family.” Tian Yang

rushed to speak.

“Family?” Ling Shuang insultingly sneered. “Humph! I am

under the impression that the Yun Family status is so
honorable, in the end unexpectedly with a slave calls each
other brothers, even more believe in a slander from a
lowly person whose status is lower than me. Yun Family is
actually only like this! Ridiculous to the utmost.”

Once these words were said, Yun Shi Zheng couldn’t restrain from
twitching his brows. He wanted to have a noble daughter-in-law,
not a short-sighted mean person!
 “Ling Family’s honor is high to what point?” Tian Yang
answered back sarcastically. “Let alone the daughter
eloped with another man, that daughter also didn’t
understand the principle of a woman couldn’t marry to two
husbands, to go as far as thickening the face to return and
find the originally abandoned man.”

“Tian Yang! ” Yun Shi Zheng frowned. “May not speak

carelessly. A girl’s reputation couldn’t be allowed to be
defamed.”

“I didn’t speak carelessly.” Tian Yang pulled Jie Yi to the front.

“Yi’r could confirm the truth of everything.”

“You believe in a slave but not believe me?” Ling Shuang

screamed, whole face was wearing a hurt expression.
 “Because of him,” she pointed at Jie Yi. “I have to endure the
torment of ailment, without money to seek medical
advice, also have to face the danger, with my personal
maid on our own came to Guanwai. Do you know two girls
alone on the outside, must face how much risk?”

“That is you reap what you have sown.” Tian Yang without the
least bit sympathy said.

“Humph!” Ling Shuang coldly laughed. “I didn’t know what

Xiao Shi Zi had told you, in any case, that was not the truth.
But what I have said, have the evidence.”

“What evidence?”
 “You see!” Ling Shuang stepped forward, came as a surprise, she
hauled Jie Yi’s hand, rolled up his sleeve. “What is this?”

Could see on Jie Yi’s wrist, wearing the pearl bracelet that Ling
Shuang had given to him as a present.
 “This is my pearl bracelet, you ask Xiao Shi Zi, this is
belong to me or not?” Ling Shuang was extremely pleased with
herself.

It seemed that even the Heaven also helped her, this stupid Xiao
Shi Zi unexpectedly regarded the pearl bracelet as a treasure and
wore it everywhere, definitely didn’t know the bracelet didn’t worth
much money.

Jie Yi fell silent for a good while before started to speak. “This is
indeed Young Lady’s, but…… it was Young Lady who gave it
to me.”

“I did not, you stole it.” Ling Shuang accused him.

 “I didn’t steal.” Jie Yi twisted his brows. “You yourself gave it
to me, you clearly know it than anybody else.”

“No cause no reason, why should I give it to you?” Ling

Shuang turned to face Yun Shi Zheng. “Father, you also see he
admitted that that bracelet is mine, now you still intend
to ignore Tian Yang slandering me?”

“Don’t worry, Yun Family will justify it for you.” Yun Shi
Zheng attempted to be fair-minded.

However, honestly speaking, he towards this daughter-in-law

already greatly fell short of a requirement, if could not enter
the house, better not entered the house.

“Father!” Once Tian Yang became anxious, his mouth became

impolite. “You dotard, this easily got cheated by someone.”
 How could Yun Shi Zheng admit defeat, at the time when he was
about to contend, they saw Tian Hao hurriedly entered the door.
His expression was strange.

“Father, Big Brother.” He called out loud. “Outside there is a

man comes to find future sister-in-

law.” “Who?” Yun Shi Zheng felt the

oddness.

“I have brought him in.” Tian Hao pointed at the door. “It is
him.”

“Xiao Bo Yu!” Ling Shuang shouted with her high pitch voice.
“What do you come here for?”

“Xiao Shuang.” Xiao Bo Yu whole face was of pleading sympathy

while coming closer. “Go home with me, I know I am at fault!
Don’t worry, in the future, I will properly work to support the
family, will not let you suffer.”
 “Where is my money?”

“E…….” Xiao Bo Yu for a moment was at a loss for words, the next
moment later he finally spoke in hum and haw. “Had been lost in
a gamble, but……” He rapidly assured. “Xiao Shuang, don’t
worry, I already found a job for a husband in a private shop.
Our live perhaps will be a little poor, but unlikely cannot
make a living. Here after, I will never gamble again.”

“Husband?” Ling Shuang strangely shouted. “Then we will be

poor to death! Really didn’t know formerly what actually I
liked about you!”

She had never experienced hardship. Before, of course could

boast in front of father, but these past days experienced for
herself the reality, she towards the hardship already extremely
afraid. If by any chance she really married to Bo Yu, the hard times
didn’t know must be spent for how long?

“Ai……” Xiao Bo Yu helplessly scratched his head. “We are

husband and wife. Xiao Shuang, you better accept your
fate and go home with me!”
 “I don’t want to.” Ling Shuang willfully said. “Yun Family is my
correct husband family, Yun Tian Yang tenfol d more
handsome than you, why should I go with you?”

Once these words escaped the mouth, by the side transmitted

Tian Hao’s laughter up his sleeve, being furiously glared by Tian Yang
by then he finally stopped his laugh.

Xiao Bo Yu for a while had a clumsy mouth, looking all around,at

long last found a familiar person. “Jie Yi, you help me to persuade
your Young Lady, make her go home with me. Oh, right, that
time, thank you for helping Xiao Shuang by substituting in
the marriage, thanks for your trouble.”

Jie Yi shook his head, smiling. “It is fine.”

 At this moment, finally the whole truth is revealed. But Ling
Shuang hurriedly grabbed Tian Yang’s arm, with sweet and unctuous
manner of speaking said: “Tian Yang, I am really sorry that I
have deceived you previously, but from now on I will properly
become your wife, become the Mistress of the Yun Family.”

Everybody practi call y because of her thick-skin stared

dumbfounded. Tian Yang disgustedly pushed away her hand.

“I will never marry you. You can give up this idea. I’d like to
advise you, you better accept this damned bad luck, to
avoid having nothing in the end.”

“Father!” Ling Shuang turned to face Yun Shi Zheng asking for
help.
 Yun Shi Zheng cleared his throat. “Shuang’r, I think, it will be
bett er if you called me Uncle. This Young Master is your
rightful husband, our Tian Yang doesn’t have this good luck.”

Ling Shuang’s face lost its color, but she refused to be defeated.
 “They are telling lies, everything has been collaborated.”

“Lie?” Yun Shi Zheng muttered to himself. “Shuang’r, you

better go with this young master! You see, your husband
seems to almost get angry, if you sti ll not go with
him, m a y b e y o u wil l h a v e t o t a k e r e s p o n s i b i l i t y o f
th e conse quences! ”

Ling Shuang for a period of time hesitated without a word.

“Also, regarding your father there, I will send him a letter

to explain everything to him. As for you, perhaps you
could take your chance by weaving your own story, your
father should be able to forgive you, you guys will not
live in the hard times.”
 These words of Yun Shi Zheng, obviously contained a ridiculing
implication.

Ling Shuang after considering for a while, while annoyed, she

followed Xiao Bo Yu and left.

“This little brother,” Yun Shi Zheng walked to Jie Yi. “Really
grateful to you, otherwise, we would be deceived by
Ling Shuang.”

“It is you!” Tian Yang said in whisper unhappily. He took Jie Yi’s
hand. “Father, Yi’r from now on will live in Yun Family.”

“Yi’r?” Yun Shi Zheng narrowed his eyes, a little bit suspicious.
“You and him are really on close terms.”
 He couldn’t help but recall that just now Xiao Bo Yu mentioned
about the substituting matter.

“Yi’r, was it you that replaced Ling Shuang being married

to Tian Yang?”
 “Yes…… I did!” Jie Yi honestly answered.

“Tian Hao!” Yun Shi Zheng turned towards the second son. “You
actually dare to lie that the bride hasn’t come, but in
reality already being taken away by Tian Yang, isn’t it?”

Tian Hao’s body became stiff, the originally wanted to glide out of
the house footsteps was halted.

“It was Big Brother’s idea, he wanted to chase away Sister-

in-Law!” Tian Hao smartly shifted the blame.

“You and Yi’r were leisured away for not a short while.” Yun
Shi Zheng scrutinized Tian Yang. “Where did you guys go to?”

“In TianFeng Ranch.” Tian Yang curled his lips honestly admit.
 “Yi’r is a man, you cannot go as far as to not be able to
identify, can you?”

“……After several tens of days, I just found out!” Tian Yang

had no power to refute.

Once these words escaped, could be heard two sounds of

thunder like laughter rose up.

“You all don’t know, how beautiful Yi’r was when he wore
the woman apparel , it would be a wonde r if could
be identified!” Tian Yang angrily said.

Of course, at this moment recalling that time, he also knew that

Yi’r was full of loopholes, but he wouldn’t foolishly admit it.
 Jie Yi first time hearing him openly and without fear praised him,
couldn’t help but having both cheeks flushed red. Tugging Tian
Yang’s hand, signaled him to say no more.

Yun Shi Zheng line of sight fell on the two joined together hands,
the tone of speech was not kind while saying: “You wouldn’t be
making the falsehood into reality, right? Still not quickly
letti ng go his hand, two men holding hands become what
kind of scandal?”

Jie Yi upon hearing the words, rapidly let go Tian Yang’s hand.
Stepped back for several steps, standing at Tian Yang’s back.

“Father, Yi’r will stay in Yun Family.” Tian Yang raised the
same topic again. He didn’t want Yi’r once again to disappear to the
place where he couldn’t find.

“What’s the proble m with that!” Yun Shi Zheng was

openhearted. “Ask Aunt Li to arrange a place for him, our
worker quarter has many beds. However, Yi’r,” He looked at Jie
Yi. “Are you sure you want to stay here, not following your
Young Lady back to Jiangnan? You should think carefully!”

“Yi’r may not go!” Tian Yang rushed to answer. “He in

Jiangnan doesn’t have any relatives anymore, this place from
now on will be his family. Also, Yi’r will not stay in the worker
quarter, he is part of the Yun Family member, of course he
will stay in the main house.”

“I…… I can stay in the worker quarter.” Jie Yi said in a soft

voice.

“Nonsense. You are my…….”

“Your what?” Yun Shi Zheng coldly asked.

 “My brother!” Tian Yang immediately changed his words. “I
have promised Yi’r to share delights and common hardships,
wherever I stay, of course he will also there.”

“No……No need!”Jie Yi was looked at by Yun Shi Zheng’s swift and

fierce eyes until having a guilty conscience. “Big Brother Tian Yi
said I can stay at his YingYang Ranch. He has given me
some errands, livelihood wouldn’t be a

problem.” “What can you do?” Tian Hao curiously

asked.

It was not he underestimated Yi’r, only that he had never met

such a delicate man, the slender body was so similar to that of a
woman, he indeed believed Big Brother had his reason for not being
able to identify him as a man.

“I can cook.” Jie Yi stuck up his chest proudly said. “And also
Tian Yi Big Brother taught me many things about the ranch,
he said I learned very fast.”
 “…… Not allowed!” Tian Yang roared. “I don’t allow you to
cook for him, also not allow you to stay with him
together, the meals you cook can only be eaten by me.”

Tian Yang towards that event on yesterday midnight, the

scenery of the two people holding hands under the moonlight, just
like having an extreme cold. How could he give the two people
another chance to stay together?

“…….” Jie Yi was shocked and unable to respond.

“Live with Tian Yi could be better than with me?” Tian Yang
glared at Jie Yi said. “Your husband is me, not Tian Yi!”

This……this…… Yun Shi Zheng and Yun Tian Hao looking at each
other, upon hearing this tone, looking at the expressions, Tian Yang
obviously was being jealous!
 But……the partner was a man?

“But……But……” Jie Yi clearly unable to cope with Tian Yang’s

anger, could only mutter and mumble in his speech. “I…… I don’t
want to trouble you all……”

“You dare to stay at Tian Yi’s place, then it could be said as

troubling Tian Yi!” Tian Yang shot down his words.

“That…….That……” Jie Yi’s at a loss eyes fell on the two people by

the side, asking for help while looking at them.

“You can just stay here!” Yun Shi Zheng finally spoke. “After
all the Yun Family main house has a lot of rooms, also not
lacking of a bowl and chopsticks.”

“……Alright!” Jie Yi uneasily nodded his head.

※※※※　　

In all honesty, Xiao Yi’r was truly obedient, doing work was diligent
without complaints, towards him this oldman was gentle and
courteous, towards other people was also with a smile on his face,
really loved by all.
 Yun Shi Zheng while looking at the busily wiped clean the table and
chair, the antique flower vase, back figure of Jie Yi, also sighing in
l a m e n t . A i! W h y s h ou l d Y i ’ r b e a m a n ? H a v in g s u c h a n
attractiveperson’s tenderness kind of face, also that kind of slim
and fragile stature, gentle smile, but why should be a man?

Truly caused people to wring one’s hands in disappointment!

While on the other hand that ordinarily regarded others as

beneath his notice older son of his, as soon as entering the house,
the person he looked for would be his Xiao Yi’r. See, speak of the
person and doth he appears. Not even looking at him this ‘fall ill’
old father who was sitting in the hall, waiting for him to come and
greet him, asked how was he doing, actually just like that turned a
blind eye on him and walked away. In his eyes only could see his Xiao
Yi’r.

Ai! Ai! It was not like he loved to gossip, Xiao Yi’r’s smile also
rather too sweet. When he saw Tian Yang, his eyes also became
brighter, his whole person as if brightened up.
 How could he let it be? If thing s conti nued this way, his
grandchildren would come from where?

“Don’t see again, the person has left!” Tian Hao stretched his
fingers, waving them in front of Yun Shi Zheng.

“Tian Hao!” Yun Shi Zheng rose with force and spirit. “It’s good
that you are here.”

“What’s wrong?” Tian Hao was looking at him in his alertness.

“Can you also see how Tian Yang and Xiao Yi’r getti ng
along situation?”

“Can!”
 “Don’t you feel a bit strange?”

“Indeed a bit strange.” Tian Hao frowned. “Big Brother is

sticking too close to him.”

“Indeed!” Yun Shi Zheng sighed with deep feeling.

If it was Xiao Yi’r who initiated the move, then he would have a
reason to chase him out. But unfortunately it was actually his
own son overbearingly pestered upon the other person. He…… He
truly wanted to cry but had no tears, the slightest reason also
couldn’t find.

“That’s right,” Yun Shi Zheng’s eyes shone. “Tian Yang in the
town has a girlfriend? I think I shouldn’t be too wishful, just
let Tian Yang marry her, it will be fine.”
 “The two since long ago had broken up.” Tian Hao sneeringly
said. “You don’t know that girl cursed Tian Yang to what
extent, Tian Yang has been classified as the rejected to
come and go by the inn’s owner, still wanted to marry her?”
 “That severe?”

“If wanted Tian Yang to marry, father perhaps must find

another person, also, must put up a better performance.”

“Eh?” Yun Shi Zheng embarrassedly scratched his head. “You all
know I faked my illness?”

“Not knowing most probably only that stupidly wait on you

Yi’r la!” Tian Hao mockingly said.

“He really is a good child.” Yun Shi Zheng warmly said, but the
next moment he again came to his awareness. “May not. Even
if Yi’r is good, he is a man, no matter what couldn’t be the
Yun Family daughter-in-law.”
 “You go and say it to Big Brother!” Tian Hao made sarcastic
comments.

“Tian Hao!” Yun Shi Zheng pair of hands put over his shoulders,
earnestly said. “How about we join hands to think of a way
to send Yi’r away, alright?”

“Why say ‘we’?” Tian Hao was alarmed. “I am not against

having a man as my sister-in-law.”

What a joke, it was not like he didn’t know his Big Brother’s
temper. Angered the Big Brother, what goodness could it be for him?

“You are not against ah?” Yun Shi Zheng smiled like a wily old
fox. “In truth I also not care that much, after all I have two
sons. One not married is not really a serious matter, I still
have you to produce male heir to continue the family line,
isn’t that right? Tomorrow I will carefully find a suitable
partner for you.”

“As a matter of fact, two males how could it possible to

be together?” Tian Hao corrected himself. “Big Brother is also
too
unreasonable. We should find a way to send Yi’r away!”

Yun Shi Zheng twitched his brows: “Think clearly already?”

“I am very clear la!” Tian Hao reminded him. “However

Father, it is best if you carefully considering one thing.”

“What thing?” He was really afraid of his son’s kind of serious

tone.

“I have never seen Big Brother to be fond of a person, also

never have seen him so happy, you sure you want to send
Yi’r away?”

“This……” Yun Shi Zheng was rendered speechless.

 If not because of Tian Yang’s happy face caused him to be
hesitant, how could he still not chase Yi’r out until now? However, to
continue like this, is it good?

“Ever since mother ran away, Big Brother had changed to

another person. Like now, with much difficulty finally there
is someone who can open his heart, Father, you really have
the heart to break them apart?”

“Your mother……” Yun Shi Zheng dejectedly hung down his

shoulders. “So you all know……”

Damn, he thought he had concealed it very well!

“Very similar with Ling Shuang, isn’t it?”

“A little.” Yun Shi Zheng was unwilling to admit.

 “Since Father wants to do this, I will cooperate.” Tian Hao
mindlessly shrugged his shoulder. “As long as you wouldn’t
regret it later, it will be fine! I know Father only wishes for
our happiness. But, compared to Ling Shuang, I would rather
Big Brother marry to Yi’r. We live in Guanwai, nobody has the
idle time to care for another family’s business.”

“It may be true….”

Yun Shi Zheng couldn’t help but carefully consider.

Was it necessary because of the haven’t met, also didn’t know

drift from where grandchildren, offended his own precious son?
Besides, because of his faked illness, Tian Yang in all likelihood had
found out, no wonder these several days didn’t give him any
good face, if because of Yi’r’s matter he brought two things into
contact with Tian Yang, didn’t know this time Tian Yang would hold a
grudge for how long?

Upon these thoughts, he really should properly consider it.

 Chapter 10

“Where are we going to?”

Sitting on horseback, Jie Yi facing the wind tiredly asked. Ever since
he fell off the horse previously, Tian Yang didn’t let him learn how to
ride horses anymore. Because Tian Yang seemed to have a guilty
conscience from hiding the truth about the Yun Family’s large house
matter, now as long as he had any free time, he would take him
out to have a look.

Galloping for a while, they finally stopped at the top of the

mountain. Looking downward, the sight was a large terrain of
grasslands. Tian Yang looking at that land, proudly said: “Yi’r, the
land that you are looking at now, all belongs to the Yun
Family.”

Jie Yi was surprised. “How large!”

He towards what was called as ‘Guanwai’s wealthiest family’ all

along didn’t have any idea. Until now, he just had a somewhat rough
outline.

“Indeed very large, however…” Tian Yang subconsciously drew

his brows together. “Not only Yun Family, almost all of Guanwai
people make a living depending on the weather. As long as
there is strong wind and snow, or an insufficient source of
water, all of the livestock will freeze to death or thirsty to
death. Unfortunately everyone is depending on the
livestock to make a living. If having this kind of calamity
for several years, everyone’s savings would be used up
with nothing left.”

Seeing him frowning, Jie Yi put his hand on his chest, encouraged
him: “Don’t be distressed, Heaven never seals off all the
exits. Definitely could think of a way out.”

Tian Yang rubbed his head, softly said: “There is a way, and
also I have tried it out!”

Talking about this, Yun Tian Yang with full confidence said: “Yi’r,
you know that we have started to change our rearing
style, besides beginning to store up provisions, we also
will begin to grow forage grass, lessening the
dependency on the Heaven to make a living.”

Looking at Tian Yang full of confidence face, Jie Yi suddenly felt

that this moment him was glowing with health and vigor,
became several times even more handsome, in a split second his
heart was thumping and beating wildly. Abruptly felt that he could
be by Tian Yang’s side, really a matter that could make someone
proud.

“Wait until I succeed, I will extend this style, let all of the
people in Guanwai, everyone could live a happy life.”

Jie Yi smiling gently said: “Tian Yang, you are really great. Not
only for your own goodness, but you still want others to
live happily, not the slightest bit selfish, really
outstanding.”

Tian Yang lowered his head to look at him.

Jie Yi’s sincere praise had warmed his heart. His substitute bride
though was a man, he still wanted to be with him for the rest of
his life.
 Every time he talked about his dream, always been given a snort
of contempt. Everyone always laughed at him for doing
unnecessary things. But Yi’r’s reaction was not the same, he
thoroughly believed he would make it.

It had been decided, no matter what other people said, he

would make Yi’r stay by his side for all of his life, for all eternity
never
allowing him to leave him.

He lowered his head to lightly peck Jie Yi’s cheek.

“Yi’r, I am not as outstanding as you think. This is the place

where I grew up, of course wish to forever live in this place,
also want everyone to live a peaceful life, only this.”

“But……”

“But what?” Most probably had been used to Tian Yang’s surprise
attack in kissing him, Jie Yi except for face slightly flush, didn’t ha

ve much reaction.
 “Now I wish I can make it, because…… I want to give Yi’r a
not to worry about short of something’s environment, to
let you be happy in this place.”

Hearing this, Jie Yi’s smile was diluted. He was touched and could
only stick his cheek on Tian Yang’s chest, listening to his strong and
vigorous heartbeat.

“I don’t need a not to worry about short of something’s

environment, as long as I can stay here, I will be very
happy!” he didn’t dare to demand for anything anymore. “But, I
know you will make it, you definitely will make it.”

This warm encouragement made Tian Yang’s heart moved, he

lowered his head, kissed Jie Yi’s lips, tightly embraced him, from
inside his body surged up a hot desire.
 His kiss was very gentle, very sweet. Jie Yi could only close his
eyes, obediently let him kiss.

“Yi’r,” Under the raging mood, Tian Yang couldn’t bear to open
his mouth. “Stay by my side forever, alright?”
 Jie Yi was infected by his mood, nearly just nodded his head as the
reply.

These several days, Tian Yang treated him extremely well. That
gentle voice, teasing expression, the earnest bearing, each and
every of him he liked, he also knew that Tian Yang honestly wished
him to stay by his side, but……

How could he stay for good?

Just because he liked Tian Yang, all the more he couldn’t harm Tian
Yang to be criticized by others. Every time Yun Father saw him, that
awkward as well as didn’t know what to do expression deeply carved
in his mind, also let him know, just said that his face was so similar
with a woman, he in the end was not a woman. Couldn’t forever
stay by Tian Yang’s side.
 “Tian Yang,” Jie Yi finally opened up his mouth. Saying out was
indeed not what Tian Yang wanted to hear. “I eventually will
leave.”

Tian Yang’s body which was tightly embracing him became rigid.

“Leave? To where?” Tian Yang’s face was darkened. “Where

could you go to. You only have me, don’t you?”

“You…… You are not mine at all.” Jie Yi difficultly spoke.

“Have you forgott en? Yun Father sti ll wants you to get
married.”

“I can explain it to him.”

“But…… father he has fallen ill, you cannot……”

 “That wished to die stinking old liar, you don’t have to
believe him.” Tian Yang couldn’t help but scorn. “Everyone had
been duped by him.”
 Damn old man. Unexpectedly could think to fake an illness to get
his purpose. If not these several days carefully observe, still
wouldn’t know that the old man only became frail and weak
upon his appearance. Once he had gone, he became doughty as a
dragon and lively as a tiger. What a miraculous illness!

“Fake?” Jie Yi although had doubts, but at the same time he

sincerely laughed. “Then isn’t it extremely good, father will
be fine.”

Tian Yang in a daze, but also relieved, couldn’t help but lovingly
firmly embrace Jie Yi.

“Only you would think like this. I definitely wouldn’t think

so.” He laughed at himself. “Look at me, actually have a grudge
against an old man.”
 “You have the reason to be angry!”

“The Yi’r who shows considerati on for others, I really

unwilling to leave you.”Tian Yang remained hugging Jie Yi not
letti ng go, this recently had become his habit. “Wait until I go
home, I will properly talk to father, to acknowledge your
position in the Yun Family, never let you have one thread one
hair of grievance.”

A little bit couldn’t understand his words, Jie Yi lifted his head to
look at him.

“You will go out?”

“Yes!” Tian Yang nodded his head. “Tomorrow morning, I with

Tian Yi, Tian Hao will go to Saiwai. We heard that in that
place the horses are first-rate. If could bring back some of
first-rate breed horses, in the future no need to go
through the hardships of taming the horse, also could
increase a great number.”
 “Go for how long?”

“Maybe it will be at least for a month!”

Jie Yi lashed out a mouthful of air. Couldn’t help but knitted his
brows. A month, what a long time! “I…… I can or cannot……”

“May not!” Tian Yang tenderly caressed his delicate cheek. “All
the way is wind and frost, fatigued by the journey,
extremely hard.”

“I am not afraid!”

“But I can’t be willing!” Tian Yang dotingly caressed his head.

“Once thinking about how delicate you are, how could I be
willing to let you out on a faraway round trip! Be good,
wait for me.”

“I am very strong.” Jie Yi retorted.

“I know.” But the unwillingness to let his beloved to suffer any

hardship was another matter. “You have to understand, Yi’r,
a man always wants to protect his beloved person, not
letting his beloved one to face any hardship!”

“Eh?” Jie Yi widened his eyes. Did he hear it wrongly? “You……

You say……”

“Xiao Yi’r, you upon a sight is so small, always arouse the

protecti ve desire, even though knowing you are strong
doesn’t need other to protect, but I really couldn’t help it.”
Tian Yang stuck his cheek on Jie Yi’s hair, lovingly rubbed lightly.
“You are my beloved person!”

Hearing his words, Jie Yi violently trembled. His heart was delighted
as well as sad.

Delighted because they had mutual feelings, sad because he knew

they would have to be separated one day.

“I……I am a man, basically not worth…… Not worth your

love.”

“Nonsense!” Tian Yang caressed his head, lovingly and tenderly

ensured. “There is nobody worth to be loved more than
you. Only you, when I have no penny to my name, willing
to stay by my side.”

“No matter what, it is unfair.” Jie Yi shook his head. “I am

used to poverty, but Young Lady…… She was born wealthy.
Also at that time, I stayed because I have my selfish
purpose.”

“What purpose?”
 “I want a family.” Jie Yi honestly said.

“Then, now you already have!” Tian Yang promised.

“But…… Our feeling is not allowed.” Jie Yi difficultly bit his lips.
“In Jiangnan, playing with a man is possible, but nobody will
regard it as real. I don’t want to become one of that kept
man.”

“I will not let you become a ‘kept man’.” Tian Yang dearly
embraced him. “In this life this world, in my heart will only
have you, even if couldn’t have a wife, we still can stay with
each other for the rest of our life.”
“But…… I have no way to bear children……”

“The kids just let Tian Hao be troubled.”

“But……You……You said……”

“What have I said?”

 “You said embracing a woman is much better……” Jie Yi
once let the words escaped his mouth, his heart was hurt as if
being stabbed by a sharp knife.

“It was said because I was angry at you, and also to

deceive myself.” Tian Yang was puzzled and scratched his head.
Never had thought Yi’r would straightaway remember words said in a
fit of rage. On a perfect time carefully took out to rake up old scores.

“Why do you want to lie to yourself?”

“There is no one could rapidly admit that he actually so

stupid to the point unable to differentiate man and
woman, furthermore, fell in love with that counterfeit
bride.”
 “Oh!” Jie Yi shamefully lowered his head, didn’t know what to say.

“Don’t say that when you found out that you have fallen
for me, you didn’t have the least bit struggle?”

“Non……Nonsense!” Jie Yi this time practically flushed red.

“Who said that I have loved you?”

“Eh? You don’t love me?” Tian Yang intentionally made a

shocked expression. “Thinking back, you indeed didn’t say, but
your body told me.”

“Did…… Did not.”

“Why not?” Tian Yang casually stated outright. “If don’t love
me, when I entered your room every night, took off your
clothes, being intimate with you, you didn’t reject even a
little, instead, melt in my embrace, of course I know you love
me. However, if you could clearly say it out loud, I will be
happier.”

Face…… Face skin was too thick! Jie Yi could only glare with
flushed red face at the boasting without censor man. But
unfortunately his words indeed were too vulgar, but he was
helpless to refute.

“In fact, even though you didn’t say, I also know your kind
feelings.” Tian Yang to one’s surprise became respectable. “Only
that this time going to Saiwai, a long way to go, also
couldn’t know would meet what kind of trouble. Didn’t
hear you personally say love, always will feel something is
missing. If by chance I really never return, it will be the
greatest regret!”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Jie Yi anxiously and fearfully took the

trouble to shut his mouth.

“Yi’r, do you like me?” Tian Yang cunningly took advantage of

the favorable situation.
 “Like, of course like.”

The image of losing Tian Yang caused him to be panic-stricken. Jie

Yi on his own accord hugged Tian Yang’s neck.

“If not like, I will not thick-skinned stay with the Yun
Family, will not let go the pride of a man, letting another
man to embrace in his bosom.” He lifted his head determinedly
looking at Tian Yang. “I love you.”

“Really want to push you down……” Tian Yang said out loud a
vulgar talk.

Jie Yi was alarmed, but the next moment he relaxed. They were on
the back of a horse, Tian Yang wouldn’t be insane to this degree.
 “Really want to make out outside once.” Tian Yang muttered
to himself, but the voice was loud enough to be heard by Jie Yi.
“Tomorrow will depart, it seems like there is no chance, but if
by any chance never return, wouldn’t it become unable to
accomplish forever? Really will be greatly regretted ah……”
 Jie Yi let out a mouthful of air, for a moment he became hesitant.

He wanted to make Tian Yang happy, merry, but making out on the
outside…… , such a loose in morals behavior, how could he have the
nerve? Obviously only imagining that scene, already enough to
cause him embarrassment to the extreme.

The result of reason and feeling locked in a seesaw struggle, in the

end the feeling had the superior position. As long as Tian Yang
happy, he could do anything.

Mustering up enough courage, Jie Yi printed his lips on the side of

Tian Yang’s mouth, on his own accord initiated a kiss.

“You……You want to do what just do it!”

“Really?” Tian Yang was very happy.

‘A little persuasion wins over the bride’ this saying sure enough
had its reason. See, Yi’r was such a bashful person had become
passionate. The feeling was extremely good!

Didn’t give Jie Yi another chance to be hesitant, Tian Yang

immediately took him down the horse, put him on the soft grass,
deeply kissed him.

“Yi’r. You also can kiss me back!”

 “I……” Jie Yi embarrassed to the point his whole body flushed red,
could only deeply bury his whole red face in Tian Yang’s bosom.
“I……I cannot……”

Clearly in the broad day light on the outside doing this kind of
matter, already enough to make him ashamed with no place to
hide, how could he bear to do such a thing?

Caught the sight ofJie Yi being so embarrassed, Tian Yang became

even more aroused. The root of the lust began to stir, from head
to
toe became burning hot. He had never thought a body of a
man could actually make him suffer from the torment of lust.

At a lightning speed he unloaded the two’s in the way clothing,

spread on the filled with green grass ground, to avoid the blade
of grass pricked on Jie Yi’s fair and clear skin and muscle. After that
he impatiently held Jie Yi’s head, licked his trembling lips ……

“Yi’r, I teach you how to kiss me back.” His gentle voice was
seducing.

Jie Yi falteringly learned his style, stretched out his own tongue,
timidly kissed him back, with Tian Yang’s tongue tangled,the watery
eyes were looking at Tian Yang. Once the kiss was accomplished,
silvery thread of liquid was glistening like a ray of light on the space
between their mouth.
 “Really great!” Tian Yang satisfyingly laughed. The fingers
improperly moved downward, touching Jie Yi’s sensitive stamen in
front of his chest, caused Jie Yi to abruptly jerk for a while.　　

Tian Yang stretched his hand to rub the small red cherry. Gently
playe d with it, unti l Jie Yi couldn’t restrain to move out of
nervousness, by then he finally ceased his action. Passing
through the fine-textured hair, the big palm seized the already in
high spirit lust, rubbing up and down. Seemingly unable to restrain
any longer, Tian Yang sat on the ground, hugging Jie Yi to sit on
his bended knees, made him spread both of his legs, to intertwine
on his waist.
 “Xiao Yi’r, you also couldn’t hold it anymore?” Tian Yang
asked with hoarse voice, similar with Jie Yi, already unable to control
the breathing spell.

Burning in the flaming passion caused Jie Yi to be unable to hold

back the enchanting moan from overflowing, this enchanting moan
made Jie Yi himself have a flushed red face, hurriedly covered his
mouth.
 “Come, Yi’r, you also hold mine.” Tian Yang led his hand, to his
own burning hot part.

Was not Jie Yi’s first time doing this thing, but his skill was still very
embarrassing to the point he didn’t know what heshould do,
could only because of Tian Yang’s instruction, ashamed to not
have the courage to look at him.

“There is nothing to be ashamed of. We are only doing

what every loving couple would do with these kinds of
things.” Tian Yang comforted him.

“This.......This kind of thing, I only do it with you.” Bearing

his bashfulness, Jie Yi said with a deep feeling.
 “I know, I also only do it with you.” Tian Yang’s large palm
held both his and Jie Yi’s hot passion, wrapped them together in
his palm, the two hot stems were like stiff iron sticks rubbing at
each other, brought along a suffocating pleasure for the two.

“Mmm.....ng....ahh.....”

Didn’t need a long time, two streams of milky white bodily fluid at
the same time erupted out. The two at the same time let out
a delightfully low groan. Jie Yi also as if collapsed from dehydration
into Tian Yang’s bosom.

Although already released one time, Tian Yang’s desire was not
shrinking at all. On the contrary, became even more vigorous. He let
out a deep groaning voice, lifted up Jie Yi’s buttocks, impatiently
wanted to enter him.
 Tian Yang’s hand from the beautiful like the sight of spring scenery
thighs groped upwards, teasing the stem in the middle of the soft
bush. Praising in mutter: “So beautiful, my wife even this place
is more beautiful than other people. How can there be a
beautiful man like you my wife?”
 This kind of immoral talk, and Tian Yang had the nerve to say so.
Jie Yi’s whole body was burning hot merely from hearing this.

“You.....lessen this kind of talk!” Jie Yi said bashfully.

Tian Yang all along smiling, obviously didn’t have the intention to
mind his request.

“Good Yi’r, stand up.” He gently coaxed.

Although Yi’r failed to understand, he stood up on his weak legs.

Just this way, his naked lower body fell onto Tian Yang eyes, listless
private on Tian Yang face.

“Ah……” Jie Yi wanted to cover himself in panic, but both hands

were placed behind his body easily by Tian Yang.
 “Don’t be like this…..” Jie Yi could not help but beg.

“Isn’t today the day you will listen and obey to me?” Tian
Yang smiled wickedly, the remaining hand grabbed Jie Yi’s private,
opened his mouth and put it into his mouth.

His technique was obviously better than Jie Yi’s, while sliding it in
and out of his mouth, saw both of Jie Yi’s legs shaking like a leaf in
the wind, as if at any moment couldn’t hold himself, just like
collapsing on the ground, mouth occasionally let out a gentle moan.

Unconsciously , Jie Yi’s hands are already free, but he did not break
away from Tian Yang’s embrace, instead he moved towards Tian
Yang’s body, both hands deep in Tian Yang’s hair, upper-body almost
half lying on Tian Yang’s shoulder.
 And Tian Yang’s fingers did not ask, already skillfully entered Jie
Yi’s rear secret passage, mischievously entered and came out. His
body receiving attacks on the front and back, Jie Yi did not have
enough skill, thus released for the second time again.
 “Ah…….” After releasing, Jie Yi could only weakly lie on Tian
Yang’s body, his legs were firmly fixed by Tian Yang, thus did not fall.

“Was it good?” Tian Yang wickedly asked, while taking the

containing in his mouth milky white bodily fluid to Jie Yi’s mouth. The
slight bitter taste caused Jie Yi to unable to restrain his frown.

Handily turned Jie Yi’s body, Tian Yang stretched out his tongue,
properly loving Jie Yi’s private stamen. The wet and warm feeling
intimately surrounded the stem. The oral cavity, the tongue and
the teeth, each time rubbed on the stem’s sensitive part, a
spell of wonderful aching and limpness flowed toward the lower
half of his body. Even if unwilling to admit, but in fact it was too
good. Jie Yi’s body couldn’t conceal the reaction, could only
powerlessly shiver.
 Tian Yang’s hand slip into Jie Yi’s beautiful naked buttocks, aimed
at the entrance to poke a finger. Jie Yi made a low moan, the honey
juice once again erupted. The him who had just released himself,
could only limply fall to the ground with their clothes as the mat.

“Yi’r, lift your butt higher!” Tian Yang ordered. At this moment,
Tian Yang’s fingers still hadn’t left at all, instead, with a rapid pace
thrust in and out in his back yard. Jie Yi’s soft moan getting louder
and louder.

“Mm......” Jie Yi both bashful and annoyed bit down his lips. Never
had thought he could display such a lewd posture allowing another
to play with.

This moment him, both pair of arms and pair of legs were kneeling
while he bent over on the ground, only his butt was raised up
high, just like an animal in heat. The Tian Yang on his back sent
forth the exclusively belong to a male odour, enchanted him. This
feeling and this circumstance, caused Jie Yi to have a kind of illusion
that he was the incarnation of a beast.

Like Jie Yi’s fascinating posture, unable to restrain the subtly

contraction, with a low howl, Tian Yang took out the finger, at long
last could no longer press down, straigthened up his body then
entered Jie Yi’s body.

The hollow space in a swift moment had been crammed, this

time there was no pain, only an endless pleasure. Particularly
recalled about the reality that Tian Yang would be parted from
him, Jie Yi’s heart gave rise to an unwillingness. He firmly clinged to
Tian Yang, together greeted the arrival of the highest tide.
　

Regardless that the two’s location was on a wilderness in the

open, as soon as the passion was ignited, like setting the prairie
ablaze, the two were deeply loving each other until the moon rose.
※※※※　　
 Forcing his out of sorts body, ignoring Tian Yang’s opposition, Jie Yi
insisted in sending Tian Yang off.

“Little fool, I only bluffed you. Don’t get up, your body
wouldn’t be able to hold out.” Tian Yang dotingly said. “Saiwai
basically is not as dangerous as you imagine it. This is also
not my first time going there.”

“It is fine. I want to send you off.”

Jie Yi managed with difficulty to sit up. Although the body was
aching and painful, but he didn’t want to let Tian Yang depart all
alone.
 “Fine!” Tian Yang couldn’t bend him, could only make him
promise. “But after I depart, you must return to your room
for rest.”

“Then……You also must promise me,” Jie Yi was enduring the

embarrassment. “While you are out, must properly take care
of
yourself, don’t let yourself get too tired, also…… must return
safe and sound.”

“I promise.” Tian Yang’s heart was nice and warm.

The feeling of having someone caring for him was really good. All
of a sudden, he was also really unwilling to part with his Xiao Yi’r.
Presently, Tian Yang felt that he himself was experiencing the
unwillingness of the soldiers who had a wife at home but had to go
on a long journey.

“Tian Yang, really can’t take me along?” Jie Yi hadn’t given up

asking again.

“We won’t talk about this subject anymore.” Tian Yang lost
his smile. “This is also not a part never to meet again. I will
come home in a flash. Fast to the point you couldn’t feel
that I ever left. Alright?”

“…… Impossible.” Jie Yi buried himself in Tian Yang’s bosom,

derived in his scent. That was his most favorite scent. “As soon as
you leave for a while, I will begin to miss you, every day
will think about you.”

T h e s e v e r a l sh or t s e n t e n c e s , e n o u g h t o c a u s e J i e Y i
embarrassment to the point of whole face flush red. Even though
he was completely burying his face in Tian Yang’s bosom, causing
Tian Yang unable to clearly see his expression, but due to his
body emitting the bashfulness of feminine charms, allowing Tian
Yang to understand how much courage hemust muster so that he
could say it out loud. His heart couldn’t help but become warm.
 “Xiao Yi’r……” He lifted up Jie Yi’s face, gently kissed him. “I will
also miss you, really really miss you.”

“Then……” Jie Yi stared at him with expectation.

“Impossible. You not even able to ride a horse.”

 “Humph!” Jie Yi lowered his head and puffed his both cheeks in a
sulk.

And he was enduring suchshamefully boldly said words, never had

thought Tian Yang still didn’t want to bring him along.

“Alright, be good, I will depart soon.”

Hearing these words, Jie Yi also not angry anymore. Busily followed
behind Tian Yang out of the room.

Tian Yang towards his habit of walking behind was rather helpless,
could only hold his hand and walked out.
 Arrived at the main hall, could see that everybody was already
there, obviously only waited for Tian Yang to arrive then would
depart.

Yun Shi Zheng saw the two coming out hand in hand, couldn’t help
but sighed in lament, public morals had degenerated with each
passing day.

“Finally came out!” Tian Hao had been waiting to the point of
impatient. “I thought you have died in your sleep!”

Towards his Big Brother hand in hand with a man, he didn’t say
anything.

“Eh? Jie Yi also go?” Tian Yi was also a thick-nerved person,

towards the two holding hand matter, he took no notice of what
he saw, only smiled at Jie Yi bright and clear.
 “He doesn’t go.” Tian Yang answered on his behalf.

Jie Yi was alarmed, he took out his hand.

“Tian Yi Big Brother. Jie Yi also wants to go, but…… Tian

Yang just doesn’t allow.”
 Perhaps because Tian Yi had taken him in, Jie Yi towards him had a
rather familiar feeling, couldn’t restrain to inform him.

Tian Yi moved around to check on him up and down, his brows

couldn’t help but frown.

“I thought that not seeing you for several days, you will
grow some meat on your body, unexpectedly, not only not
growing some meat, the face also has that obvious
swollen dark eyes. How is Tian Yang taking care of you?”

Hearing that, Tian Hao eventually broke into laughter. “Isn’t it

because Tian Yang at night is being overly caring to him!”

The speech done, Jie Yi’s slight and soft face skin swiftly heated to
red. Tian Yang also furiously glared at Tian Hao.
 “Eh?” Tian Yi observed the two’s expression, then afterwards
realized that there was something fishy. “Good Heavens, so it
is like that!”

No wonder, every time he asked about Jie Yi, Tian Yang would be
unhappy. He wanted to come over to see Jie Yi, always being
obstructed by Tian Yang. So it was like that!

That first time seeing him, he already could feel Tian Yang’s
attitude towards Jie Yi was not usual. Didn’t expect it was actually
like this.

Public morals are degenerating with each passing day, public

morals really are degenerating with each passing day ya!
 Yun Shi Zheng looking at his two outstanding sons, one remarkable
nephew, to one’s surprise just chattered about this kind of
secret behind the chamber talk in relaxing manner, ashamed or not
ah? This old face of his already didn’t know where should he put!

With him shared the same feeling, obviously only that whole face
red like Guangong1Jie Yi. At the scene, the people who had the
shame, only them two, Yun Shi Zheng couldn’t help but generate
that those who had the same illness sympathize with each other’s
kind of good feeling.

I said that Tian Yang why the sun is three poles high2 still not
coming out of the room, so it was because in the room they could
hardly tear themselves away from each other!” Tian Yi excitedly said.

“You just find out now.” Tian Hao chimed in. “I told you
earlier, you have to wait, you still don’t believe.”

“You two envy or jealous?” Tian Yang deliberately asked. “If

being envious, why don’t you go and find one!”
 “This truly destroy the bridge after crossing the river3 ah!”
Tian Yi clicked his tongue while shaking his head. “Also not
considering that the person by his side, still didn’t pay
respect to a certain person who bestowed him the favor
to stay.”

So it was you! Tian Yi! Wasted my trust on you! Yun Shi Zheng
thought in resentment. To actually lead his son to diverge from
the main road!

“It is because we are fated together, even if you didn’t

ask him to stay, I would also be able to find Yi’r and take
him home.” Tian Yang argued.

“Of course! But unexpectedly searched for several days

still couldn’t find. Still have the audacity to talk big!” Tian Yi
‘whispered’ to Tian Hao’s ears, the voice was loud enough to be
heard by everybody.

“Think about it, it is indeed stupid!” Tian Hao jokingly shook

his head. “Only the ranch next door, unexpectedly couldn’t
find. What a genius!”
 “Enough! Enough! It is late already, if still not depart, don’t
know want to drag until how long?” Yun Shi Zheng decided that
he didn’t want to listen any longer, busily said to make them leave.

Tian Yang turned to Jie Yi, his face became gentle. Looking at Yi’r,
embarrassed to the point wanted to find and get into the hole,
why was his skin so thin?

“Yi’r, be good and wait for me to return.” Leaning his face, he

got close to Jie Yi’s ear wickedly said: “Wait for me to return, you
must properly welcome me, understand?”

Jie Yi’s face flushed red again. Nodding his head, in a soft voice
answered ‘yes’.
 “You…… You quickly come home.” “I

know.”

Ignoring the eyes of everyone, Tian Yang gave Jie Yi a big hug,
firmly embraced him, as if wanted to knead him to enter his
bosom. Afterwards he finally let him go.

“Father!” Tian Yang solemnly called out to Yun Shi Zheng,

prudently said. “I entrust Yi’r to you, on my behalf properly
take care of him, alright?”

“Eh……That……” Surrendered under the son’s rare entrusting,

Yun Shi Zheng helplessly nodded his head.

“I trust you!” Tian Yang said sentence per sentence. “Yi’r is a

good and honest person, you will like him!”
 “…… I know la!” Yun Shi Zheng pouted and shouted.

With one’s heart set on speeding home kind of feeling, everyone

finally departed.
 “Don’t look anymore. The person has gone.” Yun shi Zheng
without any kindness called attention to the still stupidly
standingat the doorway person.

“Master.” Jie Yi regained his awareness, couldn’t help but be

endlessly ashamed by his own behavior.

“You come here, I have something to ask

you.” “Yes!”

Perfectly understood what Yun Shi Zheng wanted to ask about, Jie
Yi restlessly followed to enter the house.

 Chapter Epilogue

Counterfeit Bride – Epilogue

“I think, we should properly talk!” Yun Shi Zheng sat on the

chair, pointed at a chair and said: “Sit.”

“……Yes.” Jie Yi sat down.

For a period of time, didn’t know how to start, two people looking
at each other blankly for half a day, afterwards Yun Shi Zheng finally
cleared his throat and began to speak: “E, that, Yi’r ah, you
come to the Yun Family also not for a short while already,
adapt to everything yet?”

“Mm, everyone is treating Jie Yi very well.”

“It is a little too much.” Yun Shi Zheng muttered to himself.

Hesitating for a while, he pointed at an obvious red mark on Jie Yi’s
neck. “Is that done by Tian Yang?” He with a very small
percentage of hope asked.

“That?” Jie Yi unconsciously caressed his neck.

“Forget it! Forget it!” Yun Shi Zheng sighed, he truly was a
busybody. “That……That…… Do you like Tian Yang?”

Jie Yi was shocked, uncomfortably hung down his eyes.

 “Everybody is very nice, I like everyone.”

“We don’t need to go round the curves and skirting the

corners1.” Yun Shi Zheng leaned forward, earnestly looked at Jie Yi.
“It is Tian Yang who forced you, you don’t have any feeling
towards him, isn’t it?”

“No……It is not……” Jie Yi hadn’t finished his line, already got cut
off.

“Definitely like that, it can’t be wrong. Tian Yang has

always been overbearing. You must be in fear of the
Master’s authority, so that you have no choice but to
submit to him.” Yun Shi Zheng assumed the correct things by
himself.

“Don’t be afraid. As long as you honestly say it, I will make

Tian Yang put a little distant from you.” He patted Jie Yi’s hand.
“Two men together like this, is a little outrageous, isn’t it?”
 “Young Master didn’t force me!” Jie Yi denied.

In front of Yun Shi Zheng, Jie Yi still referred his position as a

servant, of course would call Tian Yang as Young Master. In spite of
Tian Yang’s objection, he still didn’t have the intention to correct
himself.

“It is my own wishful thinking towards Young Master. It has

nothing to do with Tian Yang Young Master. Everything is my
fault.” Jie Yi hurriedly added. “It is true, Young Master is
deceived by me!”

“How can it be?” Yun Shi Zheng curiously asked.

“In the beginning, Young Master thought that I am a

woman, also his bride, that’s why the pretending act
became real……”
 “So it was like that!” Yun Shi Zheng finally knew the sequence
of events. “Indeed had troubled you. Tian Yang also too much,
that grass and mud house is a storehouse, how can be a
place to live in? And he could think it out!”
 “At that ti me, he hated me so much!” Jie Yi because of
recalling that memory softly laughed. “All the time wanted
to chase me out to leave quickly, he didn’t know that I
from long ago have been used to that kind of hardship life.
But I feel very sorry towards Tian Yang, I didn’t know the
Yun Family was basically is so wealthy, still got him to
make a bed, make table and chairs, really had troubled
him.”

“What trouble?” Yun Shi Zheng waved his hands. “That is what
he deserved.”

“Actually Young Master was also very much suffering. When in

grass and mud house, Whatever I cooked he ate, not the least
bit complained. I also wasn&rsqu
 o;t like in his imagination bride, not beautiful at all, and then,
riding a horse also got hurt, he completely took care of me, I had
caused him to be tired.”

“You rode which horse?”

“Shandian.”

“No wonder you got hurt! Shandian is the most violent

horse in the ranch. Tian Yang did it on purpose?”

“…… Afterwards I found out, actually he also hid many

things from me.”
 “Now I can see why Tian Yang can…….ehm…… like you.” He
still couldn’t say out this ‘love’ word. “And Jie Yi, what about you?
How can you like Tian Yang?”

“……I…… Initially…… I don’t really understand it at all.” Jie Yi

nervously twisted his fingers. Regarding self-analysis of the load on
his mind, he was not an expert at all.

“You don’t understand?” Yun Shi Zheng was astonished.

 “Initially, I……only wanted a family. Because Tian Yang
said he only wanted a wife in name only, I thought it
wouldn’t be a problem, he could have a wife, and I could
have the family that I had lost long ago. Afterwards……” Jie
Yi’s eyes because of recalling the memory became misty.
“Afterwards being discovered by Tian Yang, he asked me
to leave, I just left. However……”

“However what?”

“Aft er leaving, the heart always felt so heavy, for no

reason longing for Tian Yang.” Jie Yi said difficultly. “We
obviously had no relation at all, but I have always thought
about him, helplessly thought about him.”
 He continued his talk in a mutter: “After that, I finally
understand this feeling was missing, that heavy feeling
was loneliness. By then I finally knew, without my
awareness, I have fallen for Tian Yang.”

Hearing Jie Yi evenly narrated, Yun Shi Zheng as if could feel that
kind of mood, couldn’t help but be in a daze.

“Originally wanted to quietly leave, for the last time

went to the grass and mud house, then return to
Jiangnan. Who could have guessed……”

“What?”

“Tian Yang was at there.” Jie Yi embarrassedly said, there was

a happy tone in his voice. “He said he was waiting for me to go
home, and I was really home.”
 “That is fate!” Yun Shi Zheng mumbled.

As for good match or ill-fated relationship, different people

different views.
 “So, you see!” Jie Yi became eager. “Tian Yang Young Master
didn’t force me, everything is my fault.”

“Enough. Don’t need to explain eagerly!” Yun Shi Zheng

wa v e d his h a nd . “Tia n Y a n g i s my s o n , h o w can I not
understand him?” He laughingly said.

“That man ah, is such an overbearing one. What belongs to

him, he would hold it firmly. The things he doesn’t like, he
would stay far far away from it.”

This seemingly was the fact, beyond all dispute. Jie Yi only could
shut his mouth.
 “As a matter of fact I indeed can understand why Tian
Yang’s so fascinated with you!” Yun Shi Zheng muttered to
himself irresolutely.

Fascinated? Jie Yi shook his head. This fascination also unknown

could be sustained for how long, he was a man after all!

“You don’t know, how much Tian Yang has changed.

Recently he has been smiling a lot to the point of frightening.
And also, his attitude towards you is different with how he
previously treated those women, also not the same with
us.”

There was a slight disturbance in his chest, Jie Yi was secretly

delighted.
 Maybe…… Maybe Tian Yang really loved him! All along towards
Tiang Yang’s love words he put himself like being in a beautiful
dream, didn’t have the courage to believe. Now that there was
other people saying it out, his degree of confidence was increased
not only a little.

“The previous Tian Yang is like an irritable and easily got

angry wild horse. Whoever offended him would get their
lesson. You see how he gets along with Tian Yi and others,
should have a slight knowledge, right?”

“Tian Yang is a little bit fierce.” Jie Yi modestly said, recalling

the first time he met Tian Yi Big Brother, Tian Yang rewarded him
with several fists.

“But, now he has calmed a lot. Maybe it is because of you!”

Yun Shi Zheng scruti nized Jie Yi. “In you, there is a kind of
reassuring and peaceful disposition. Just by your side, there
wouldn’t be any ruthless air could emerge. Or maybe
because of your yielding in everything, not argue with
anyone! The more like this, the more it causes peopl e
to give you whatever you want.”

“……” Jie Yi didn’t know what he should say.

 Reassuring and peaceful, is it? Ever since he arrived in Guanwai,
after meeting Tian Yang, he actually felt that that kind of disposition
was leaving him further and further away. His heart had more
and more demands. Insistently as well as persistently weighed him
down. He was so tired!

“Do you know the purpose of me calling you to talk today?”

Jie Yi suddenly shuddered for a bit, nodded his head.

“Let me hear.”

“Want me to go?” Jie Yi obscurely said.

“……” Yun Shi Zheng irresolute for half a day before he spoke :
“Originally it is like that.”
Jie Yi anxiously lifted his head, widening his eyes stared at him.

“Do you know about his mother?”

Jie Yi shook his head.

 “Me and his mother……” Yun Shi Zheng heaved a sigh. “At
that time we were too young. One was an ignorant
brat, wholeheartedly only wished to piece together all
Guanwai to be his own world. And the other was a delicate
woman from a distinguished wealthy family, couldn’t adapt
at all with the rough Guanwai.”

“As the result, several years after Tian Hao was born, his
mother couldn’t keep up with the circumstances anymore,
with another man ran away!”

Jie Yi shockingly gasped.

“That time Tian Yang already understood the matter. Of

course he understood his mother was what kind of woman. I
hid it, but couldn’t. Hence upon, Tian Yang changed. Changed
to detest the world and its ways, also not believed that
in this world there would be a good woman, of course
towards all noble and wealthy people detested even more
bitterly.”

“Can be imagined……”

“The affairs of the upper generation, very difficult to

determine who had wronged whom, of course shouldn’t
affect the next generation. As for Tian Yang, I already
helplessly feel guilty. Hence, I only pray that there would be
a woman who could change him.”

“Only that, never expect the person who came was Ling
Shuang, a carbon-cop y of his mother.” Yun Shi Zheng
unceasingly sighed. “I originally looked forward that she at
least had a litt le of her father’s merciful, tolerant and
generous character.”

“Young Lady since young has been spoiled, of course will

be delicate. Add more her heart has its ti e, this thing
couldn’t blame her.”
 “She threw you a slap really couldn’t see her tenderness
and delicacy.”

Jie Yi blanked for a while. Couldn’t help but smile at the truth.

“Since long, when the bride was tardy and not coming
yet, I should have known that there was something
wrong. But thinking about it over and again, who would
have thought that Ling Shuang would actually ask a man to
replace her!”

“…… Sorry……” Jie Yi flinched a bit.

“The whole thing that I have expected Ling Shuang to do,

you have done it. If not confirm that you are a man, I since
earlier had spread my both hands to welcome you. But……
after all, whether it is a good-natured, loved by my son
male daughter-in-law, or a strong-willed unyielding,
hated by everyone female daughter-in-law, this kind of
choice will be difficult for everyone.”

“I will go!” Jie Yi lowered his head said dejectedly.

From the beginning he already mentally prepared to leave. If his

existence had created complications for someone else, naturally
he had no reason to stay.

“Then how about Tian Yang?” Yun Shi Zheng unexpectedly

asked.

“…… We, basically shouldn’t be together.”

 “You are indeed rational!” Yun Shi Zheng frowned. “Your
relationship, shouldn’t be only that foolish son of mine one-
sidedly crazy?”

“…… I …… I don’t want Tian Yang losing his integrity……”

Jie Yi firmly said. “I don’t want other people criticize him.”
 “You are really thinking for his sake.” Yun Shi Zheng laughed.

“Do you know? Yi’r.” He leaned his body to the front, imitating
the way Tian Yang addressed Jie Yi, even though Tian Yang’s strongly
not allowing anybody else to call him like that, but he was his father,
he ought to be an exception. “If you go just like that, how
about Tian Yang?”

“…… Maybe will be sad for a period of time, afterwards he

would resume his life like before.” Jie Yi made a conjecture.

Tian Yang was that strong, less him one person, the days
absolutely would proceed as usual. Unlike him.

“It should be!” Yun Shi Zheng heaved a sigh. “Only that,
compared to before, he would detest the world even
more, even more not believe in others. You don’t
know, the stronger the outward appearance, the more he
strives to show that he doesn’t need whomever, in
actuality, inside his heart, he yearns to be loved more
than anyone else. Once you knocked open his solid
heart’s defense, he will be devoted to you.”

“If you just go without saying anything, betraying Tian

Yang’s trust for you. Tian Yang with his prideful nature, how
could he accept it?”

The most important thing, if Yi’r disappeared under his care, Tian
Yang absolutely wouldn’t be modest towards him, even if he was Tian
Yang’s old man, it would be the same.

“But……”
 “Do you want to stay?” Yun Shi Zheng came straight to the
point. “If because you couldn’t stand that foolish overbearing
son of mine so you want to go, I can understand, after all,
only a few people can stand him.”
 “It is not like that!” Jie Yi with his seldom anger irritatedly cut
him off. “Tian Yang’s temper is not that bad!”

“That is towards you!” Yun Shi Zheng innocently shrugged his

shoulder. Following next, he adopted a stern countenance: “If you
don’t really want to go, then just stay!”

“Eh?” Jie Yi was a little doubtful of himself for hearing it wrongly.

“I can stay? I…… I am a man…… really……Really can?”

“If you thick-skinned insisted wanted to stay, then I

absolutely will ask you to leave.” Yun Shi Zheng sincerely said.
“But after talked to you, I know that you are a good child,
the person who will think for the sake of Tian Yang to
such extent, except for me, I think it is only you!”
 “Since we are the people who care for Tian Yang, there is
no reason that we can’t get along well.”

“You…… Don’t mind that I am……”

“If saying not care it will be a lie.” Yun Shi Zheng said
helplessly. “But I have been thinking on my own for a long
time. Been living until this age, in the end, what must I care?
Is it the common opinions, or is it the happiness of my
son? The answer is very easy to choose. Isn’t it?”

“You are a good father!” Jie Yi sincerely said.

“So, I am this good father only has one request to you.” Yun
Shi Zheng patted his hand. “Must make Tian Yang happy!”
 “I reall y wan t to! ” Jie Yi said in mutt er . “Bu t I don’ t
understand anything, the things I can help him is limited,
could only accompany him by his side.”

“Then just accompany him by his side! Wholeheartedly

take care of him.” Yun Shi Zheng laughingly said. “I think what
Tian Yang wants, also only wants you to stay by his
side. What is called as happiness, isn’t it to be together
for long time?”

That’s right! Jie Yi couldn’t help but recall this morning when Tian
Yang stubbornly put up the qilin jade, at that time the expression
on his face was very gentle! If only could everyday see this kind
of expression……

“At any rate, I already can accept!” Yun Shi Zheng open-
m i n d e d l y sa id . “Anyway , I have two sons. Holding
grandchildren wouldn’t be as hopeless. On the contrary, Yi’r,
you should think clearly. If you really with Tian Yang
together, for this lifetime, you will only have Tian Yang, only
have us, impossible to have the next generation. The
family you yearn for, certainly will forever cut all ties with
you!”

“I don’t care. If I have all of you.” Jie Yi said in a low voice.

“You all are my family.”

“Then, we have reached the consensus.” Yun Shi Zheng

unexpectedly hung his hand on Jie Yi’s shoulder, earnestly said: “I
still have one more request.”

“Mm?”

“Although you guys have done everything that should

be done or shouldn’t be done, your relationship is no
different with the common husband and wife, but please
promise me!”
 “Promise what?” Jie Yi felt embarrassed, his face became very
hot.

“If by chance Tian Yang had gone crazy, wanted to formally

marry you, you absolutely must refuse!”

He had accepted the two’s relationship, but the people definitely

wouldn’t be able to accept. He didn’t want to because of this
depart
 from the classics and rebel against orthodox matter become
famous.

“No…… No way!” Jie Yi’s face couldn’t help but become red,
there was a stream of happiness flowing nonstop in his heart.

“Then it is good!” Yun Shi Zheng sighed in relief. “Then, how

about we talk over things?”

Jie Yi had a little fright while looking at the laughing oddly person.

“……What things?”

“He!He! Not much la!” Yun Shi Zheng straightened his laughing
face. “You also know that Tian Yang is not an obedient son, of
course he wouldn’t listen to me. However, he seems like
giving you a special treatment, meek and obedient. In the
future, what if just let him listen to you, but you listen to
me, how about that?”

“Master is the senior, basically must listen to you!” Jie Yi

said in laughter.

“What you’ve said is right, then I will be your father!” Yun

Shi Zheng came to realize. “Good child.” He grabbed both of Jie Yi’s
hands. “You must be more obedient than those two
damned sons!”

“Mm!” Jie Yi obediently nodded his head.

“Then we have talked it out! Come, let me hear you call me

father.”
 “Father.” This long hadn’t been called caused Jie Yi’s eyes to
become red.

Really never had thought, between he and Tian Yang, could come
to this point, also could obtain Father’s acceptance. Wait until Tian
Yang is home, knowing this news, didn’t know how happy he would
be!

However, Tian Yang definitely would embarrassedly and proudly

say no need whomever approval! Jie Yi thought sweetly.

Really wished that Tian Yang could come home quickly. Although
he had just depart, but he already missed him!
※※※※　　

“Yi’r, let’s go out to look around.” With much difficulty stole a

half day’s free time, Tian Yang excitedly raised the idea.

“Brat, can’t you see me and Yi’r are playing chess?” Yun Shi
Zheng coldly reminded, while he leisurely moved his black pawns.
 “Wait until finished the chess and then go, alright?” Jie Yi
tactfully said.

“Sure must! Everything must be in order of arrival. Want to

play also must wait until we finish the chess.” Yun Shi Zheng
talked in whisper. “Ai! Has been playing chess for a long time,
mouth also has become thirsty. Tian Yang, go and pour a cup
of tea!”

Tian Yang’s face even the nerve was twitching. Upon a glance,
definitely the premonition of wrath.

Jie Yi busily stood up. “Father, let me pour it, Tian Yang also
have a cup. Wait for me for a while.”

Gazing at Jie Yi’s in a haste back figure, Tian Yang finally unable to
hold back, made a fist violently bang on the stone table.
 “Stinky old man, why do you always order Yi’r?”

“Ai ya, I don’t ah!” Yun Shi Zheng said extremely not guilty.
“The one I ordered was you, why didn’t you go, still let Jie Yi
to go in a hurry?”

“Pouring tea this kind of petty matter want me to do?”

Tian Yang raised his brows. “Damn old man, if thirsty then just
don’t play chess anymore, go in to rest will be much better!”

“I know that you wouldn’t go.” Yun Shi Zheng curled his mouth
said. “Fortunately Yi’r is obedient, let him call father is not
only an artificial call.”

Not mentioning this, Tian Yang hadn’t been angry. The more he
mentioned it, the angrier he got.

Since returned from Saiwai, the situation changed drastically.

 He was very happy that Yi’r could stay in the Yun Family happily,
comfortably. The sincere smile was extremely fascinating. But
afterwards he just realized, everything was because of that old
man, without his own contribution.

Only this was fine, as long as Yi’r could be happy.

But very fast he found out, except for the nighttime, during the
day, Yi’r totally was snatched away by that sti nking old man!
Everyday dragged Yi’r to taste the tea, playing chess while chatting.
Didn’t give any consideration, during the day he was working and
exhausted to the extreme, very hard to have a free time like
today, this stinking old man actually still wanted to monopolize Yi’r!

Yi’r was his!

 What, Father was such extraordinary? He…… no matter what, he
could be said as Yi’r’s ‘husband’. Regardless of what logic, it should
be him who had the priority.

“Father, the tea is coming!” Jie Yi gasped for breath. Return

with fragrant tea overflowing in all direction.
 “Good!” Yun Shi Zheng laughing widely accepted the tea.
Suddenly, a spell of wind blew. He was coughing. “It is windy, a
little bit cold!”

“I’ll help you take the coat.” Not even had sat down, Jie Yi
already planned to turn his body to take the coat.

Tian Yang finally couldn’t stand it anymore. “Sit. I’ll go to take

it!” he angrily said.

“I know that he would go to take it.” Yun Shi Zheng couldn’t

help but laugh loudly. “He really couldn’t let you!”

“Father!” Jie Yi was angry but also amused. Could only sigh, it
was Tian Yang’s own foolishness, always fell into Father’s method.
 “This is what’s called as want to shoot the General,
shoot the horse first.” He finally found a way to control his
stubborn son.

“Take it!” Tian Yang angrily threw the coat on the chess board on
the table, broken the half-played chess formation. “Yi’r. Let’s go.”

“But father……”

The words gradually vanished, in a blink of an eye, the person had

been seized and taken away.

“Tian Yang, go like this is really impolite.” Jie Yi unceasingly

struggle. “What will father say? You are too much la!”

Seizing Jie Yi back to the room, after locking the door, Tian Yang
then shamelessly smiled.
 Mm…… Yi’r when being obedient was really great, but at this
moment, the brimming with energy while pointing at his nose to
scold him, lively to the extreme, it had another kind of grace, he also
extremely loved it!
 “Say again! I am listening.” Tian Yang laughed loudly while
looking at him.

Jie Yi’s face became bright red, taking back his rogue behavior at
once.

“Not saying?” Tian Yang raised his brows. “Then good, I also
not only wanted to listen to your talk.” Pulling Jie Yi and printed
a burning hot kiss. “We do something that will make
everyone happy, alright?”

“Now is daytime……”

“Day time is perfect. I can see you clearly.” Caressing that

caused him to yearn for skin, Tian Yang said in a whisper.
 “Y o u s ai d wa nt t o g o o u t t o l o ok around … . . ” Jie Yi
powerlessly reminded him.

Following the pressing lips, gradually getting deeper and sweet

intimate kisses, caused Jie Yi’s both cheeks to feel hot, couldn’t think
further, could only drift with the waves and go with the flow.

A good while later, Tian Yang satisfyingly held Jie Yi into his bosom,
let him calm on his front chest, his fingers following the shape of his
graceful back lightly moving.

“Yi’r, are you happy?”

“…….Mm……” Jie Yi embarrassedly buried his head. “I am

happy……Extremely happy, you?”
 “You are happy then I am happy.” Tian Yang lovingly held him
tightly. “We will be together forever.”

Jie Yi fell silent for a spell, unexpectedly said: “What a fool!” His
voice was slightly shaking. “I can’t do anything, status also low,
also a man, I can’t give you anything, there is nothing good
in together with me.”

“I have you, just give yourself to me.” Tian Yang laughed

happily. “As long as I have you it is good, I don’t need other
things.”

“That’s why I said you are stupid!” Jie Yi couldn’t bear the
choked with happiness.

“In the future I only have you!” Tian Yang shamelessly said.
“So you may not dump me.”

Jie Yi laughed out loud. “…… Really stubborn.”

“Also, you should make me your number

 one.” “You…… You are indeed number one

ah……” “More important than that stinking old

man?” “……”

“Why don’t answer?” Tian Yang asked anxiously.

“……” Smiling without giving an answer, Jie Yi leaned closer to the

chest under his body.

“I want to be the number one in your heart!” Tian Yang firmly

said.

Jie Yi in low voice broke out into a laughter!

 No matter if it was stubbornness, or overbearing, Tian Yang
seemed to have set on him. And he himself, of course had given his
body and soul to Tian Yang.

Feeling that pair of arms tightly encircled him, warm breath was
blowing on the top of his head, Jie Yi’s heart had an unexplainable
peacefulness.
 This kind of feeling, ought to be what is called as happiness!
