" Shou? " , Mei Shu thought. Shou was sitting alone and he seemed like he was stressed.
Mei Shu wanted to run to him and immediately ask what happened. But she was hesitated. " Will he be even more annoyed if I go to him? He probably hates me now. " , she thought.
But she was wrong actually. Shou didn't hate her. He hated himself. Mei Shu was preparing to leave but Shou turned back at that moment and he saw Mei Shu. He called out her name without realizing.
Mei Shu turned back because of Shou's voice and their eyes met. Both of them didn't know what to say and stood silent.
Later, Shou scratched his head awkwardly and said," I... I am sorry about earlier. I didn't realize that there were other people."
Mei Shu was surprised to hear that and she said in a low and calm voice, " You are not mad? "
Shou was quite surprised and he answered, " Why would I be? It was my fault anyways. " , he said and grinned.
Then , he said," Wanna come and sit? The moon is shining brightly today. And the air here is fresh too. "
Mei Shu did as he said and went to sit down besides Shou. They two didn't say anything to each other and sat silently for a while.
But later, Mei Shu decided to apologize to Shou and she said," Sorry...about today. I was actually.... I... ", words didn't come out from her mouth, " I am sorry about today. I didn't do it on purpose. "
She had to pull herself together just for a few words to come out. Shou understood her . Actually, he wasn't even angry or mad at her for a bit. He smiled and told Mei Shu to make her worry less," I understand. It was my fault , actually. I shouldn't have greeted you as a normal person in public. It is normal for you to ignore me. "
Mei Shu found that he was misunderstanding. She wanted to tell him that it's not his fault. But Shou stood up before she said anything. And he said," Let's go back. Someone might see us. It's not good for you. "
Hearing Shou's words, although he was just saying as he doesn't want Mei Shu to feel embarrassed in front of others, she felt sad.
But she couldn't tell Shou. She didn't want him to be worried. So instead of talking back, she agreed with him and they both went back to their tents.
As soon as Shou arrived in his tent, he threw himself to bed and laid down. He sighed deeply and then he covered his eyes with his arm as the light in the tent was too bright for him.
Shou's POV :
* I am tired . Mei looked like she wanted to tell me something. But I don't want to hear anything. I am afraid to know about my past. At that time, I don't know how to face you. So it would be better for me not to stay too close with you even though we are in a relationship. *
Meanwhile at the dark kingdom
" I am exhausted. Why am I suffering here ? I should go play outside and meet some beautiful girls. Damn it!!! WANG SHOU!!! I hate you!!! " , Lan Zhan kept shouting and mumbling alone saying bad things about Wang Shou in his room.
" Oi stop shouting will you? It's not like he will come back immediately if you shout. " , Wang Zang said with a disappointed face.
Lan Zhan sighed and answered randomly, " Come on, brother. I have been here for several days. Spare me a bit will you? And it's not my fault for cursing him. He should finish his job and come back quickly already. I am sure he might be hanging around with beautiful girls while I am suffering here."
Wang Zang signed deeply , he shook his head and left the room. Lan Zhan left alone in the room with tons of paper on the ground making a mess in the room.
Back at the Light kingdom , the night was long. Everyone was asleep with some drunk and some tired. The environment was filled with the sounds of owls and some other night animals.
The next day morning, the sun has appeared in the east however, even after it has risen up in the sky, no one woke up as all of them were tired the night before. After some time, around the midday, Mei Shu and Mei Yan woke up.
Mei Yan saw Mei Shu and said" Good morning " to her. Mei Shu chuckled slightly and said," It's not morning now. It's gonna be midday soon. But no one has woken up except us. Seems like everyone was totally tired last night. "
Mei Yan smiled and she nodded as an agreement. But then her face became frown. Mei Shu noticed it and she asked Mei Yan, " What happened? Got something in mind? "
Mei Yan looked at Mei Shu, made a deep sigh and answered," These days are really peaceful and you seems happy these days. I guess it's because of Shou, huh? I just hope these days will last forever. My heart sometimes feels uneasy. "
" You are just imaging things sis. You know, I have an uneasy feeling about the coming war. I am just saying this because it's you. Please don't tell the others. I don't want them to be worried for nothing. Everything is going well for now.But I feel like something is going to happen. ", Mei Shu said.
Mei Yan nodded and she suddenly remembered something and said to Mei Shu in a hurry ," Oh right. I just remembered that the other members from other kingdoms are coming here today. Father invited them yesterday."
"Really? ",Mei shu asked with surprise," Then we should at least prepare something . It would be ashamed to let them come but not prepare anything. "
As Mei Shu suggested, Mei Shu and Mei Yan decided to prepare some food for the visitors. Shou woke up because of the noises outside. But actually, Mei Shu and Mei Yan tried their best not to wake up the others . Shou's sense was just good .
