The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

Chapter 270: A Disappointed Shao Cheng And Shao Biyu Thoughts.

The next time Shao Cheng has woken up, it was already the next day close to lunchtime and the figure of Ren Yuan lying down on his side is completely gone, and when he reached over to touch the crumpled bed sheet, it was already long cold, which is evidence enough that the man has been gone for a long time.

Although he was already informed about the man being unable to stay for too long but there is no denying the fact that he felt a bit disappointed to see him gone and was hoping that the moment he opened his eyes, the man is still lying by his side.

I'm getting spoiled 

Shao Cheng couldn't help but release a soft sigh with his sapphire eyes showing a complicated emotion, before finally sitting down on the bed and slowly fixing his long hair with slender fingers.

Getting used to Ren Yuan's constant presence isn't a good thing for Shao Cheng to have, and despite his growing feeling being a part of the reason why he refuses such attitude to have but it wasn't the main problem.

Because, during the early years of transmigration, most of Shao Cheng's time would be spent growing his power and influence around in order to prepare for the future struggle and chaos.

Unlike the previous early years of Shao Cheng having a more peaceful time, the new life is completely different because not only does he has a goal but there are more people he wanted to protect and take care of, especially the random task given by the Chang Spirit and Purple to deal with.

So, the two of them couldn't really stay with each other all the time, the countless problems appearing once in a while are already great evidence enough to show how busy his days will be.

Shao Cheng would be dealing with countless scheming, innumerable death, and constant trouble, basically there is a bunch of people he needed to slap since they would definitely come seeking death.

Besides, even though he completely understood that Ren Yuan can comprehend his cruelty and only choosing to ignore it but he still couldn't help but want to hide it from the man, at least, only witnessing his unworthy and monster side in few times.

If it was in the previous life, Shao Cheng would never bother and considered such a thought, he didn't even do the same thing toward Huang Ya and Chang Pei, only Ren Yuan has the privilege of receiving some of the unusual sides he didn't even know of.

Ah liking someone is really troublesome

However, there is nothing Shao Cheng can do to change how he has been because he of liking someone, enough to cause his mind to turned chaotic along with foolish thoughts, after all, the previous life has already turned him into a ruthless, cruel, and cold person beyond reason.

Shao Cheng's pair of hands is already bloodstained with innumerable people's life because anyone who gets in the way of his goal has been ruthlessly dealt with, even the innocent has been used just for the sake of his goal.

He has been barely trying to set a bottom line in order to not fully lost his mind, basically, he has been turned into a genuine ancient people with power who see people's lives as something that can easily be thrown away.

I really just want to survive and protect the people I cared about, and yet, the world isn't merciful enough to let me live so easily without sacrificing something.

"... I'm being dark again Yuan would definitely get mad if he learned about it."

Shao Cheng has quickly suppressed his uncertain physiology before slowly getting off the bed while still having an uncomfortable feeling in his chest, only to stand still when his eyes have finally landed upon a familiar crimson robe casually hang upon a chair away from the bed.

At the same time, there is also the familiar piece of a red ribbon placed on top of the table next to where the crimson robes were put down.

"..."

With countless thoughts in mind, Shao Cheng could only let out a helpless sigh with his sapphire eyes showing a complicated look while hesitating to take a step forward.

Nonetheless, he couldn't stop his feet from walking forward while his slender fingers were already touching the soft and silky texture of the gorgeous crimson robes before he can comprehend what he was doing.

"... it's over I can't just ignore it"

There is always a time where a person can't control themselves no matter how many reasons and excuses they have in mind, even though there is a constant warning about how wrong it is, about how everything would turn complicated and difficult, and yet everything has become meaningless in the face of the person they like.

Just like they said, once a person is planted, there is simply no saving it.

Shao Cheng has the feeling that he will constantly resist and control his movements in the future but only to end up unable to oppose whatever is happening and completely unable to fully resist the temptation.

Hopefully, I won't become out of control in the future.

"... you are not here and yet, you are still giving me headache"

Although Shao Cheng was unable to hold the complaint in the heart he still carefully draped the gorgeous crimson robes over his shoulder while trying hard to ignore the familiar peach blossom scent upon it before finally leaving the room he has been staying for almost three days.

"Third Brother!"

"Cousin!"

"Brother."

As soon as Shao Cheng went out from the inner room with a far better state than yesterday, he instantly saw the figures of his younger brother Cai, younger sister Chia, and female cousin Biyu sitting in the outer room, in which he has already sensed a while ago.

"I want to stay in my courtyard."

Since one of the preparations regarding the Ma family is already coming near, Shao Cheng still needed to check everything in order to lower the chance of any unexpected situation occurring, which will even cause the entire plan to fail and ended up putting them in danger.

So, after a short pleasant exchange with the three people, Shao Cheng has finally walked out of the room, although he didn't refuse when the three people have offered to walk him back to the courtyard.

And even when the three of them have learned about Shao Cheng's decision to rest in his place, but they fully understood that they couldn't change his mind, so they didn't bother to spoke their own opinion and has chosen to protect him along the way.

Soon, the four of them have calmly walked toward the courtyard while bypassing some servants who instantly stop what they are doing and respectfully lowering their heads in some form of greeting.

Of course, with Shao Cheng's rare appearance of getting along with his family, there are always brave servants sneaking a glance in his directions, although they tend to stare dazedly after having a complete view of his appearance.

Such a reaction was something Shao Cheng has gotten used to receiving and has already become normal in his eyes, especially during the first time that he has been active after transmigrating in ancient times.

"Third Brother, would you be celebrating the New Year with us later on?"

Shao Cai couldn't help but turned his head to the side while carefully asking his third brother who has been silently walking, which was something that has made him extremely happy, after all, just being able to walk together with his Third Brother is a miracle itself.

This is great proof that their family relationship would be getting better in the future, although Shao Cai couldn't help but feel intense hostility to the relatives that their father has just decisively cut off any relationship after seeing the pale face of his Third Brother.

How dare that Daiyu hurt my Third Brother!

Shao Cai still felt the horror and fear in his heart after learning how his third brother was bitten by a poisonous snake!

I really should have followed what my guts have been telling me whenever I feel uncomfortable interacting with them. There is really something wrong with those relatives, fortunately, my Third Brother's life was saved.

I don't want my family to break apart.

"Yes, I will celebrate with you."

Shao Cheng has calmly answered while silently eyeing the other two in the corner of his eyes who was trying to act like they weren't interested to hear his answer.

"Great! It has been a long time since Third Brother has celebrated the New Year with us!" 

Yes, it has really been a while, after all, the moment the original Shao Cheng has turned ten years old, he has been wandering outside the Chang Capital most of the time, completely disregarding every special and important celebration in their family.

Completely never knowing how the Shao Family favor him greatly, or else, how would the original even have the carefree life to do whatever he wanted?

If one were to compare Shao Cheng's actions in the previous life, although he has ignored and disregard the Shao Family, it doesn't change the fact that it was because he wasn't really their genuine family in a true sense aside from the blood running from the body he is using.

One could say that the original Shao Cheng was far heartless and ruthless, after all, it's a genuine fact that the original was the genuine one.

Well, whatever it is and no matter what the reason was, it doesn't change the fact that he and the original have committed a great sin toward the genuine and sincere Shao Family.

Fortunately, he still has the chance to compensate and correct the mistake of the previous life, unlike the original who might have reincarnated somewhere.

Soon, the four of them has finally arrived at the entrance of Shao Cheng courtyard and saw the concerned and anxious Little Xiaolin waiting outside, it seemed that someone has quickly informed his little student during the time he was on the way with his sibling and female cousin.

"Third Brother take care, we will see you again during the New Year Celebration!"

"Yes, please rest well cousin, it would be great to see you at the celebration later on."

"... Get well soon since our Mothers, Father, Older Brothers, and Sisters has been worried sick."

Shao Cheng wasn't surprised after receiving concern and thoughtful words from the two people, however, he couldn't help but glance at his younger sister who has spoken in a soft voice, seemingly trying to hide the concern she felt inside.

Which he couldn't help but inwardly feel amused along with watching in great interest as Shao Chia's slightly baby face has flush in bright crimson color after meeting his gaze before stamping her feet on the ground in an angry manner and turning around with her head raise arrogantly.

Really a tsundere...

Shao Cai couldn't help but shake his head with a helpless smile before saying goodbye and hurriedly rushing over to catch up on the embarrassed and angry Shao Chia who refuse to show her true feelings while Shao Biyu couldn't help but gently cover the smile on her lip.

"Then cousin, I'll also go now."

Soon, Shao Cheng watched as the three figures walked away, and before Shao Biyu walked from a certain hearing range, he calmly opens his mouth causing Shao Biyu from taking another step forward.

"Don't let your guard down because those people won't stop until they got what they desired from us."

Between the Shao and Zhang, the danger won't stop until one of them is completely removed from power and influence, while at the same time the Zhang Family is definitely targeting Shao Biyu's family wealth.

Shao Cheng calmly glances at the silent Shao Biyu while gently caressing the crimson robes over his shoulder before finally walking toward his courtyard without waiting for the young woman to show a reaction.

Until Shao Cheng has completely disappeared, Shao Biyu's eyelids couldn't help but twitch after various speculation flash in her mind, particularly about her cousin being bitten by the snake.

And after a minute of being silent, Shao Biyu couldn't help but sweats in the forehead, which has slowly glid down her cheek even though the weather is extremely cold while her normal internal energy has been helping keep her body warm.

As a family with military lineage, of course, Shao Biyu was trained by her father in martial arts, particularly when they always travel around.

"... ah, why are you so terrifying?"

The young man has easily solved the problem she has been worrying about for the past few years just like that, such mean of decisiveness and ruthlessness is truly terrifying to behold.

Especially after remembering how easy it was for her cousin to quickly acquire a piece of detailed information toward their Third Uncle and the Zhang family.

What about being harmless, innocent, and weak? How could her relatives describe the young man like that? Especially when he was completely ruthless even to himself in order to complete a goal?

"I'm sure glad that I am not your enemy."

Although Shao Biyu felt her body slightly shaking from fear, a smile filled with comfort and relief couldn't help but show on her face, after all, such a person is a great ally to have, at least, it can give her a sense of thoughts that everything would turn alright as long as the young man is there to deal with the problem.

"I should quickly deal with the sweet potato my cousin has mentioned before."
