Lord doesn't think about it.

Li Chao woke up feeling hazy. A feeling of warmth wrapped him up at that moment. The memory of feeling the pain like being stabbed by ice came into his mind. Though the pain was gone he still shuddered thinking about it.

He slowly got up and adjusted himself to sit well. 

His eyes stopped at the sight in front of him. 

A man wearing a black robe was before him. The robe wrapped around his body perfectly like it was his and only his. His hair was done in half bun and the hair clasp was made with some red metal. Small feathers dangled from the clasp. He held a blue blade. And was currently cleaning it. He was truly good looking. Very playfully innocently good looking.

Zhao YunRu when looked ahead, he found the most beautiful man he had ever seen looking at him fixated. He was more beautiful than any divine being he had ever seen.

Both of them kept on looking at each other.

Creak.

"Oi, pretty hooligan you are finally awake?"

Feng Jia's sudden barge made both of them look away, faces slightly flushed. 

"Oh, Lord Zhao Bro is also here."

"Ha ha, yes. I speculated that the Young Master would be awake by now so I came by to stabilise his energy as soon as I got ready."

Yun Chun entered the room. Seeing Li Chao stare at Zhao YunRu and Feng Jia in daze, he explained everything to him.

Li Chao cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, my Lord. Many many thanks for saving my life."

Zhao YunRu moved his hands in the air saying, "Mention not, mention not. It wasn't much. Let's get along in the future."

"Then I'll be in your care."

Zhao YunRu came and sat on his bed.

"Let's stabilise your energy flow."

Li Chao nodded.

They both sat in a lotus position facing each other and held hands.

The fire and water energy circulated around them, like the day before.

After a while, they were finished.

Zhao YunRu looked at Li Chao who had his eyes closed. The gust of wind from the window made a strand of Li Chao's hair approach near his nose. He couldn't help tucking it behind his hair.

Li Chao opened his eyes, jolting back because of the intimate touch.

Both of them flushed.

Only then Zhao YunRu realize that what he had done could be inappropriate.

"I apologize, it just looked quite uncomfortable."

"A-umm, okay. Thank you, Lord."

Feng Jia and Yun Chun, who had gone out, came back and asked, "You want us to bring your dinner here or you want to eat at the restaurant?"

"I'll go down. It's too stuffy here."

Li Chao got down from his bed, feeling warm and energetic.

Yun Chun asked, "Do you need help with the bath? Can you move well? Do you feel okay?"

"I'm okay, Yun Chun. Just wait for me at the eating table you've booked. I'll be back after I'm all freshened up."

Yun Chun, Feng Jia and Zhao YunRu sat at the table in their private room. They glanced out the window at the people walking down the streets wearing colorful clothes, laughing and having fun.

Yun Chun saw a couple. The lady fed the guy a red bean bun. He looked at her chewing and nodded in agreement. 

That made Yun Chun smile because he recalled a similar incident.

But that smile didn't last long, it rather turned into a pain in his heart. His heart started aching. 

The memories of those robes, long black hair, big hands, gentle touches, soft caresses were engraved in his mind but it was hazy. He couldn't recall what he looked like. For some reason, he couldn't remember him well. That made him frustrated as his heart ached more. 

"I don't want to forget him."

He turned to Feng Jia whose pain was evident in those eyes and face.

"Who would want to forget someone they love with all heart and soul? And even if they want to, who could be strong enough to do so?"

Feng Jia said,"I am sure that I won't forget him even if it's thousands and thousands of years later. But for some reason I can't seem to recall his face. His fac-"

"Is hazy?"

They both stared at each other. They needn't say it out loud that for some reason this didn't seem natural. Not being able to recall just one person, it was clear that just their memories were being erased.

"Why would someone's identity of existence be erased?"

Zhou YunRu couldn't help answering.

"In three cases, someone's identity would be erased from the world. First is when they become a God, second is when they become demons and third is simply that a long time has passed after they have died."

Zhao YunRu looked at the faces of the two and immediately started sweating. Like he had said something wrong. 

He was contemplating on what to say when the door opened and Li Chao entered the room.

Zhao YunRu gasped in awe.

Li Chao wore a simple sky blue robe. But maybe because of the person wearing it, it looked exceptionally beautiful. His hair was done in one loose braid. Simple angling accessory at the end.

His eyes followed Li Chao till he sat elegantly on the empty chair beside himself.

Feng Jia asked him, "Oi, are you okay now? I was scared because you looked like you were dying just some moment ago."

Li Chao turned and smiled at him. 

"Friend, don't worry. I ain't dying before you."

He lifted the tea cup on the table and drank it.

"Ouuu, your manners really don't match your face. What do you think, Bro Lord Zhao?"

Zhao YunRu didn't answer so they looked at him only to see his face was turned towards Li Chao's seat, like he was stuck in there, voluntarily.

Meanwhile, Li Chao didn't spare him a glance. 

"Do you want to be my lover?"

Yun Chun choked on his tea, Li Chao sprayed it out. The victim was poor Feng Jia.

The droplets of tea, falling down his face. 

Yun Chun took Feng Jia's Qiankun pouch and took out the handkerchief and wiped his face.

"You are okay?"

Feng Jia shot a glance at Li Chao who was coughing now.

He turned towards Zhou YunRu and said, "Please don't joke like that, Lord. We could die."

"How could the three divinely taught cultivators die so easily. You three are the disciples of three great Gods. And besides, I'm not joking."

"Why do you want me to be your lover? Did you even think about it?"

"What is there to think about? You are so beautiful. I felt like it so I asked you. Now you just need to answer. The way-"

"Very well, since you don't need to think before asking me to be your lover. I don't need to think before saying no. No."

"Please be sure to think about it again, Li Chao. This Lord is the direct descendant of Vermilions, disciple and son of a Master God. You are the first mortal I've chosen."

"This humble one has to politely decline to the Lord."

Zhao YunRu pouted but said like nothing he was talking about some so so dish.

"Okay then.'
