nSeeing that Long was in a really bad mood, Xu cautiously went to sit beside Long on the bed.

nLong curled his lips and looked at Xu.

nXu blinked. “Elder brother, have you quarreled with Elder Brother Shi?”

n

n

nLong’s face darkened and he stared at Xu.

nXu blinked. “Don’t blame me. Elder brother, your face has betrayed you!”

nThe corners of Long’s mouth twitched.

nXu said with a smile, “Don’t worry. It’s just that Elder Brother Shi is angry, right? It’s not a big deal. Just go to have a good talk with him and it’ll be fine.”

n

n

nLong rolled his eyes, showing that he really didn’t want to talk to Xu.

nXu curled his lips like a poor boy. “Elder brother, did I say anything wrong?”

nLong sighed. “No.”

nXu blinked. “Elder brother, you look so upset…”

n

n

nLong continued to stare at Xu after hearing the words.

nXu shrugged. “I didn’t say anything wrong.”

nLong suddenly sat up from the bed and said, “Hey!” Xu was startled.

nLong squinted at him and then got down from the bed.

nXu looked at Long.

nLong said, “Where is Fang Shuoyang? I want to see him.”

n

n

n“Huh?” Xu was stunned. Long changed the topic so fast that Xu almost couldn’t follow him.

nLong stared at Xu. “Didn’t you hear me? I said I want to meet Fang Shuoyang!”

n“Oh.” Xu hurriedly nodded.

nLong glanced at Xu and said, “I’m hungry. Bring me breakfast.”

nAt that moment, Xu felt that he was really like a servant, a miserable servant who had to act according to his master’s mood for every second!

nAnd his master was tyrannical!

nWhat a poor guy…

nAlthough Xu felt a little helpless, he didn’t dare to ignore Long’s request.

n

n

nSo, breakfast was delivered soon.

nSince Xu didn’t want others to get suspicious, the breakfast was just as what he usually had these days and the food was as much as before.

nAnyway, Xu thought that if he got hungry in the afternoon, he could have some snacks, which were always available in Fang Shuoyang’s room.

nAlthough Long said he was hungry, he had no appetite at all when breakfast was served.

nSo Long just had a bowl of porridge and Xu ate all the rest. In the end, Xu even felt he was too full!

nAfter having breakfast, Long went to sit cross-legged on the edge and fell into a trance.

nXu asked the Shadow Guardians to clean up the table and then sat down in front of Long.

n“Fang Shuoyang is in his room now. How will you meet him?”

nLong looked at Xu. “Is there anyone else in his room?”

nXu thought for a moment, “His mother goes to see him every morning.”

n“Oh. What about afternoon?” Long asked lightly.

nXu said, “Not in the afternoon, but she usually goes there when it’s about dinner time.”

n“Okay…” Long nodded. “Then I’ll try my luck in the afternoon.”

n

n

nXu nodded. “Okay.”

nIn the afternoon, Long put on a mask which belonged to one of the Shadow Guardians and went out with Xu.

nThere was only one servant in Fang Shuoyang’s room, but many people were guarding outside.

nNaturally, those people wouldn’t stop Xu.

nThus, Xu just walked in with Long and another Shadow Guardian.

nWhen he got inside, Xu waved to the servant directly. “You can go out. I need to do something private with your young master.”

nXu might be the only person there who would say such things to an outsider and he didn’t feel shy at all.

nBut it seemed to the servant that it was normal, so he went out directly.

nFang Shuoyang looked at Xu tenderly.

nXu puckered his lips and said, “I didn’t come to see you alone.”

nFang was a little stunned after hearing those words. “What?”

nLong came out from behind Xu.

n“Mister Fang, let me introduce myself. I’m Long Xiaoyuan, Xu You’s elder brother.”

n“Xu You’s elder brother?” Fang was stunned at first, and then he suddenly realized it. “Greetings, Your Majesty!”

nLong waved his hand. “Lower your voice. I came here in secret.”

nFang stopped speaking at once.

n“In fact, I’m here to ask you some questions. And… There are some things that need to be done by yourself.”

n“At your command, Your Majesty.”

nAbout half an hour later, Xu and two Shadow Guardians left Fang’s room.

nAfter returning to his room, Xu closed the door and said with worry, “Elder brother, as for your plan… Will there be any danger?” Long glanced at Xu. “There are risks in doing anything.”

nXu became speechless. Of course he knew that! But Long’s plan was far too risky, alright? Moreover… Xu thought that if Elder Brother Shi was there, he definitely wouldn’t agree on that!

nWould Shi Qingzhou agree on that plan if he was there? He wouldn’t. However, the thing was Shi wasn’t there!

nAfter explaining it to Xu in a perfunctory manner, Long ordered the Shadow Guardians to do their business.

nSeeing that he couldn’t make Long change his mind, Xu said nothing.

nTwo days later, in the middle of the night, while Long was sleeping, he felt that there was something wrong on his bed.

nLong opened his eyes sleepily, and then he saw the person beside him…

nLong curled his lips and narrowed his eyes.

nHe wasn’t mistaken. That was really Shi Qingzhou.

nLong’s mouth slightly twitched. “Qingzhou?”

nThe person who wrapped his arms around Long’s waist and buried his face in Long’s chest… was really Qingzhou? Why did Long feel that… it was like a dream?

nShi did not speak. He even didn’t let Long see his face clearly. Seeing that Shi had buried his head in his chest, Long suddenly felt soft-hearted.

nThen, Long slightly moved sideways so that he could see Shi’s face.

nShi also wanted to move, but was stopped by Long.

nLong looked at Shi smilingly.

n“I thought I was mistaken. It’s really you…”

nShi pressed his lips together and didn’t speak.

nLong fixed his eyes on the face in front of him. After a long time, Long said softly, “Say something.”

nShi finally opened his mouth and said in a very low voice, “Say what?”

nLong touched Shi’s chin with one hand and held Shi’s waist with the other hand. “What do you think?”

nShi puckered his lips. “I have nothing to say.”

n“Hmm? You have nothing to say?” Long raised his eyebrows.

nShi looked away and remained silent.

nLong sighed, “Qingzhou, you came just in time. I was about to apologize to you.”
