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

Chapter 317: Our Dream And Future

After returning to the courtyard designated for the Shao Family in the fourth Temple, Shao Cheng calmly mediated his internal energy while sitting on top of his simple but comfortable bed.

At the same time, Goldy had woken up as soon as they returned back and was now quietly laying in the open box that he had been sleeping in the few hours he was taken away.

"Whitey, I want to share one dream of mine with you!"

Despite the sudden arrival of Ren Yuan who stealthily entered the slightly open window, Shao Cheng remained unresponsive even after hearing such perplexing words.

And even when he felt the man taking a seat to his side, he continued to regulate his internal energy, at the same time making sure that his purple aura would be full since the energy used before still didn't return to normal.

Purple remained quiet and asleep deep within his soul was enough evidence of how much aura the two of them had employed to resist the unexpected appearance of the eerie blood red aura.

An extremely taboo spell, huh 

It seemed that Shao Cheng needed to focus more on the details of the mysterious power since in his new life he wouldn't just be facing the usual trouble and difficulty he had once experienced in the previous life.

For now though, just what happened in the past few hours for this man to suddenly uttering about his dream?

"Although Whitey has been traveling around for different reasons in the past, but you will continue to travel outside the Capital even after being close to your family right? So I have decided that I'll be coming along with you sometimes despite being busy with some annoying matters."

Even though Ren Yuan's voice sounds extremely excited, his pair of pupils had been dark and deep while quietly gazing upon the young man who continued to meditate with his eyes closed.

"I'm sure Whitey will find it annoying to work for the Empire later right? So, I suddenly had a great idea that it would be amazing to travel with you in the future. After all, I also don't want to be like my old man, always staying late and waking up early to attend the Royal court. It's an extremely tiring life."

I'll take you away from the center of chaos and danger. Whitey, I will guarantee your freedom. I'll make sure that it will be some other person who will become the Emperor, you don't have to be imprisoned in the Imperial Palace for the rest of your life.

Although Ren Yuan had quickly returned to the other Temple where Lin Renshu had been staying after meeting the young High Priestess and coming back in a few hours, there was no denying the fact that his mind remained chaotic.

Especially, the prediction of the young woman saying that the young man had the highest possibility of becoming the Emperor showed that the future was far more dangerous, chaotic and difficult than what he had already imagined a long time ago.

The fight for the throne would not be the usual chaos that occurred in every generation if a person who wasn't even one of the sons of the present Emperor could become the next ruler. It was enough evidence to show how serious and severe the entire situation is.

Either the Princes would all die during the fight, causing the entire aristocratic families to fight for the throne.

Or for some reason, in the future, the Shao Family would have no choice and will be forced to rebel in order to survive. Then, letting their precious and favorite Whitey sit on the throne, thus, the prediction of the High Priestess becoming true.

After all, everyone in the Shao Family could easily give the most honorable status to Whitey without hesitation, that was how much they loved the young man.

As for why Ren Yuan didn't even consider that the Shao Family would rebel because of greed and ambition, it was because he completely believed that the Shao Family was the most loyal and faithful people in the entire Chang Empire.

As long as no one had forced them, the Shao Family would continue to protect and faithfully serve the Empire and the Imperial Family.

"Hey Little Cheng, you know, even though you are troublesome, and can get into dangerous situations a lot. But I'm really glad to have met you, and it's quite pleasing having you by my side. Of course, I like it more when you are specially bad~ So, I want to honestly share my dream with you."

Although you can be cold, and always flashing me those beautiful smiles that can surprisingly make me feel stunned...

Somehow slowly collecting unusual pets, raising my already picky taste bud to another level, even making it hard for me to sleep at night without you by my side, but I have never felt such satisfaction in my entire life.

"Let's live our life as freely as we can be, alright?"

I honestly like the way we interact with each other. I have never been this thankful to have rescued you from the freezing river on that fateful day.

And I also feel extremely fortunate that you didn't let go of your tight grip that day because I would have definitely left you in the hands of others to take care of.

Sometimes, Ren Yuan couldn't help but consider how their relationship would be if he insisted on leaving after rescuing the young man from drowning in the freezing river.

Maybe, the two of them wouldn't have been so close with strong trust for each other if the situation that day would have been different.

He could easily imagine it now, the young man would definitely find it hard to open up to him, completely showing an indifferent and cold expression just like to the other people.

I'll definitely have the same treatment on how you treat a stranger...

While he would be more guarded, and annoying the heck out of the young man with his half-fake personality, creating a bad relationship since the young man would definitely have gotten a bad impression from him.

"Of course, I won't force Whitey to follow my dream because I will definitely respect what your decision is. And if you already have a dream, just let me know since Brother Yu Yu would help you out."

I'll just need to remove any obstacle that would get in the way of what we wanted.

Ren Yuan's grin widened as those dangerous thoughts flashed in his mind, at the same time, some undefined and undetected emotions swiftly flashed in his pair of pupils after finally noticing how different he was reacting when it came to the young man.

It appears that I treat you more special than I had consider.

While Ren Yuan started doubting his unusual reactions and strange emotions, Shao Cheng finally opened his eyes after perceiving the serious and solemn atmosphere around the room as Ren Yuan continued to speak words that seemed to contain hidden and deep meaning.

"What's wrong?"

A flash of doubt and suspicion appeared in Shao Cheng's cold sapphire eyes before gazing at the familiar grinning man sitting on his side, who had reached over to casually play the strand of his long hair that wasn't tied up.

"Hm? I just have a sudden inspiration while gazing at the sky on my way here. So, did my dream sound great? Would you be willing to be with me in the future?"

"..."

Something weird  and those last words can be misleading 

Shao Cheng continued to silently gaze at Ren Yuan who playfully wiggled his eyebrow that spoke of 'did you find my fake appearance attractive?', at the same time, calming his fast-beating heart.

And when a minute of silence had passed by, he finally notices that the man was patiently waiting for his answer.

"... Yes. It's a nice dream. I want to travel with you in the future and I'll also share what my dream is with you."

Although Shao Cheng didn't know what was wrong, he didn't hesitate to answer Ren Yuan's question that definitely contained another meaning behind it. Besides, it was just traveling together all around the Empire in the future, he could always find a way, even if the man had become the Emperor.

As soon as Shao Cheng uttered those words out, Ren Yuan's grin turned into a bright smile before he swiftly rushed and pushed the young man into the bed before happily giving him a tight hug, as he laid on top of him.

Of course, Ren Yuan moved in a way that he wouldn't hurt and squash the young man under him.

"Good~ Don't forget it alright? We will travel together~"

We will continue to be special friends in the future. There won't be a possibility of becoming enemies where we have to kill each other since I would never allow it to happen.

I'll make sure of it!
