The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time Chapter 188
Advertisement
Although Shao Cheng felt touch by Ren Yuan's protective display and resolute declaration, he has still calmed the suddenly tense atmosphere around the entire room after the Chang Royal Family was mentioned.
Even though the present Emperor and the past generations have been unwise regarding how they deal with the Empire and the common people but it doesn't change the fact that no one can easily make fun and underestimate the power and influence that the Royal Family possess despite how they weren't strong and in total control of the Chang Empire in this generation.
"Alright, Brother Yuan, be nice. I appreciate your worry and concern though."
Shao Cheng that was please by Ren Yuan's actions has soothingly patted the man's hand before allowing him to once again play with the strand of his silky long hair while he continues the discussion.
"... Well… alright…"
Ren Yuan's serious and dangerous expression has quickly disappeared while showing his usual lazy and playful expression before becoming sticky and clingy once again.
"... damn a truly hidden person."
Pengfei that has seen a tiny glimpse of the serious and cold side of Ren Yuan couldn't help but softly whisper those words in his mind while gently patting the sudden goosebumps on his arms and quickly turning his attention back to his icy friend after being called out.
"Pengfei, is there any news regarding the situation of Li Shi's father?"
"Unfortunately, there is none so far."
Shao Cheng inwardly frowns, particularly when he notices the sibling's downcast expression, oh it was not because he cared about their personal emotional state, however, this is regarding the person that the Chang Spirit deems important.
He needs to carefully take care of the problem to the minimum damage, after all, he could never guarantee that nothing wrong will happen when dealing with any situation, there will never be a flawless plan no matter how perfect it was.
Shao Cheng has already experienced numerous situations in the previous life, so he was already prepared for any hidden danger that might arise during their circumstances.
After a while of discussion, Shao Cheng has finally left the room that has a heavy atmosphere while being followed by Ren Yuan that remains sticky by his side.

And after deeply thinking for a few minutes while walking with already a destination in mind, Shao Cheng has finally turned his attention to Ren Yuan that has followed him in an unconscious manner.
"Brother Yuan, make sure to come back tonight after helping me with the sissy problem since I want you to sleep with me again."
"...Eh?"
Ren Yuan has finally noticed that the two of them have arrived outside the courtyard before quickly turning his attention at the young man that has the familiar indifferent and cold expression on his face.
However, Ren Yuan was able to easily read the expression on the young man's face that was telling him to 'go away and do your obligation, but don't forget to come back to be my pillow tonight'.
"..."
Even if you call the young man as a sissy, I am not happy at all.
Anyway, why do I need to personally deal with the sissy young man problem? I got a lot of people to do my task!
There is Xing Ning, Tian Ying and the other people spread around the Capital, why do I need to do it? I don't want to leave you alone with that sibling that has a certain motive toward you!
Shao Cheng that was wearing the fake mask on his face almost cracked up a bit since he wanted to roll his eyes when he was able to perceive the strange 'baby is being wrong' atmosphere around Ren Yuan's body along with the grievance and pitiful expression on his exquisite face.
Although that expression and atmosphere weren't helping Ren Yuan at all since it all just manage to cause Shao Cheng to suddenly have the urge to bully the person before him.
"I'll see you tonight. So don't suddenly drop by, or else I will refuse Brother Yuan help."
"...!"
Shao Cheng has even tiptoed with his feet in order to pat the man head like he was a good boy before standing there with his cold sapphire eyes glinting with great expectance that has somehow cause Ren Yuan to be unable to refuse anymore.
… Foul…. Foul… Foul…
Ren Yuan can only repeat those words in his mind while letting out a disappointed sigh before swiftly rubbing the young man heads in a dissatisfied attitude, which has completely made a mess on his hair to the point that the black ribbon was finally untied causing the silky long hair to slowly fall and spread down.

Nonetheless, Ren Yuan didn't stop with his brazen actions while Shao Cheng has remained obedient, completely allowing the man to do what he was doing since he could that Ren Yuan will feel comfortable after finishing it.
Well, aside from loving great wine, the food Shao Cheng cooks, beating people up and being unreasonable, this is the only way that Shao Cheng can make the man a bit happy once more, even though he was the cause of the sudden unhappiness.
However, Shao Cheng always has the urge to beat Ren Yuan to death in the previous life, which fortunately rarely happen in the new life and was being replaced in the form of bullying, punishment, or teasing manner.
"Well…Little Cheng has to understand that I'm only doing all of this for your sake and no one else."
Shao Cheng's hair was eventually been released by Ren Yuan's warm hands that have caused him to unconsciously miss it although he was able to completely disregard such strange thought after meeting the suddenly warm peach blossom grey eyes of Ren Yuan that wanted to make a serious point about their entire situation.
"... I know."
Shao Cheng has nodded his head in understanding, knowing fully well that Ren Yuan wouldn't easily make a move for the sake of other people even if the young man were to beg, plead and promise everything he got.
It is one of the reasons why Shao Cheng was truly impressed and please by Ren Yuan's offer of help, of course, there is also the hidden panic and flustered emotion that has followed along with it because of a significant reason.
"Brother Yuan, I'll cook for tonight dinner, so behave alright?"
Didn't they say that one has to also reward a person and not only punishment right?
"...! Great! Although, only cook ours and don't let the others easily eat your dishes alright?"
I'm fine if you are letting your biological family and even relative eat the food you cook, but other people aren't allowed!
"Yeah."
Nonetheless, Shao Cheng couldn't keep his bad urge for a long time and was easily swayed by the idea of making this person happy, satisfied, and please while wanting to offer the same thoughtfulness and care he witnesses in the previous life.
And with complicated emotion and thought in mind, Shao Cheng has remained silent while gazing at Ren Yuan that has made a wave on top of the wall before finally leaving the new hideout that Pengfei has bought by using a loyal person identity that lives in the Chang Capital in order to hide any unusual and doubtful matter in their location.
Somehow, Shao Cheng couldn't help but dread how their fate will hold with each other in the future because there is a time that he couldn't stop the sudden gentleness, cares, and thoughtfulness he has when it comes to Ren Yuan sake.
Even figuring out how much should Shao Cheng acts and shows seem to have become slightly blurry the longer they interact with each other.
At least, Shao Cheng still understands that there is a line that shouldn't be crossed, so he was a bit relieved regarding their situation.
"... well, for now, there is something important I needed to do."
Shao Cheng has let out a sigh once more and taking out another black ribbon that has been stored inside his sleeves because of a certain someone before quickly tightly tying his hair up, completely making sure that it wouldn't lose even when moving around or during a fight.
And when Shao Cheng turned around next, he has calmly taken the offered silver masked from Pengfei hand that has suddenly appeared a few steps behind his back.
"My Icy Friend, I receive a message from that person last night."
"I know, just follow our plan, nothing has changed."
Shao Cheng has already estimated the other people's situation without hearing the Pengfei announcement, and after making sure that Ren Yuan is truly gone and wouldn't suddenly come back because of a certain reason, he calmly nodded his head to Pengfei before quickly disappearing in the distance with a destination in mind.

Tales of the Willful Autonomous Nanobot Generator
Due to over-engineering and poor parenting; a nanobot generator is sent into the wider universe, ready to solve any and all problems...though probably not the way that was intended, or even hoped for. This story is a first time attempt to use a literary device I came up with, where I use 4 randomly selected songs to write short stories. As such there really won't be any cohesive story thread between chapters. If this gets traction, the likelihood for reader polls to influence the next story are high.

Through some twist of fate the data-entering grunt was pulled into another world, one containing terrifying people wielding magic powers beyond what he thought possible, and - somehow comparatively less horrifying - actual monsters.
