《You, Me》Chapter 11
Advertisement
3 days later, at the square under Wan Qinxiu’s pavilion, sat Wan Qinxiu and Lan Shuixin. Lan Shuixin was calm but quite worried about their plan. He ask Wan Qinxiu calmly not showing any sign of worry, “Brother Wan, are you sure our plan will work? How certain are you that they will come look for you?” He had some doubts regarding what Wan Qinxiu told him and he wonder how he knew they would come looking for him.
Wan Qinxiu drink his tea and sets it down on the table. He seems to be so chill not in the care in the world at all. He smiles and said reassuringly, “Brother Lan, do not worry. They will be here soon. I am sure he will take this chance to look for information about me and will think of a way to invite me over. When he does, I need you to stay behind and perhaps… I need to borrow Mo Qingfeng. Brother Mo will be here in a while and when they invite me over, Brother Mo will go with me disguising as my assistant. Brother Lan, all you have to do is stay behind and wait for the good news. It may take a few days but I assure you Miss Wang will be safe and sound. Please place your trust in me.”
Lan Shuixin thought and was about to ask why do he need to bring Mo Qingfeng when he can go with him but he stop realizing he was blind and cannot help with anything. He stood firmly and calmly clutching his palm into a fist with his nails digging into his flesh til it bled. Wan Qinxiu greeted Mo Qingfeng as he enter the yard, “Brother Mo you’re finally here.” Mo Qingfeng cups his hands as a greeting, “Hello Brother Wan and Brother Lan sorry I am late.” He went to sit next to Wan Qinxiu.
Wan Qinxiu give him a set of clothe and said, “Change into this and change your hairstyle so that way they won’t recognize you. Also, use this mask as well to cover your face because your role is my assistant so your dressing needs to resemble me.” He gave Mo Qingfeng a set of clothe in dark blue and the silver mask he was given was silver. Mo Qingfeng took the cloth and the face mask and head to the latrine to change his clothes.

Wan Qinxiu turn to Lan Shuixin, “Brother Lan, I know deep inside you feel horrible for not being able to go but to not soil the plan, you really cannot go. Dark Realm is a place that reeks of negative and dark energies that can really make people from Heaven Realm feel powerless. Your identity will be expose if you come along, but Brother Mo is from Earth Realm and so he will have not have much of a bad side effect being exposed to the dark energy. I hope you understand.” He explains to Lan Shuixin hopefully he will feel much better knowing the dangerous situation if he comes along.
Lan Shuixin nods his head calmly, “Alright then… sorry to bother Brother Wan and Brother Mo to bring Miss Wang back safely. I will sit here and wait here for both of your return.” He slowly turn his head away. He thought to himself, ‘At the end… I am still useless…’
Suddenly, Wan Qinxiu’s front door was blasted open by black figures making way to a handsome clad in black. Wan Qinxiu sat facing his front door and was surprised they would actually blasted his door open. Stood before him and walking into his yard is demon prince Mu Yuhan and his follower Hei Bai. “To what I owe demon prince a visit? Sorry I was not able to receive demon prince properly but since you’re here, please sit…” He looks around and said, “Oh, I am sorry but all seats are taken. You can sit wherever you feel please.” Wan Qinxiu shrugs his shoulder and continue sipping his tea.
Mu Yuhan ignores Lan Shuixin and speaks to Wan Qinxiu, “I am not here to look for a fight. I am here for you Physician Wan. I am here to invite you to Dark Realm.” His voice sounded cool, calm, and soft doesn’t seem like he have any ulterior motives, but you must be a fool for letting that deceive you.
Hei Bai continues, “A cousin of Prince Mu Yuhan fell ill and needs immediate medical attention thus prince came here in person to invite you over to treat this cousin of his.” He cups his hand in respect to Physician Wan while also trying to seize Physician Wan up.
Lan Shuixin stays silent drinking tea trying to keep a cool minded and not get angry at Mu Yuhan for kidnapping wang Xiaomi. Mo Qingfeng notice the commotion and came right out after changing his outfit and having on that silver mask on. He walks to get in front of Wan Qinxiu and protects him in case they try to do anything sneaky.

Wan Qinxiu slowly moves and push Mo Qingfeng aside from blocking his view and said, “Ah Mo, move aside. Demon Prince Mu Yuhan came to invite me to treat a patient so I must go.” He speaks as giving a cue that they will be leaving soon. Hei Bai, Mu Yuhan, Mo Qingfeng, and Lan Shuixin was shock at the way Wan Qinxiu addressed Mo Qingfeng, ‘Ah Mo?! How passionate’ They all thought. Hei Bai has on an ugly look, ‘Don’t tell me this Physician Wan is a cut sleeve… if he is, I will have to watch out for my prince…’ His eyebrow and lips twitches.
Lan Shuixin got up and walk away, “I will not delay your treatment. I shall get going.” Then he casted a teleportation spell and left the place.

On the way there, the atmosphere got awkward as Wan Qinxiu continuously ask Demon Prince questions. Hei Bai stood closely by in case his master was taken a advantage of. “Prince Mu Yuhan ah, why must I go when there are tons of doctors out there? Why do you seek me?” They all stood in one luxurious carriage that can carry up to about 8 people. The carriage as a futon and benches on the side for comforts. It even has a table for tea in the center. Hei Bai was pouring tea to Physician Wan and Mo Qingfeng as hospitality.
Mu Yuhan reply not thinking too much into the matter, “I heard that you’re number 1 in regarding of saving lives in the capital,” he notice he was being watched by Physician Wan unblinkingly for quite some time. ‘Why am I getting stare at?’ He looks away ignoring the fact that Wan Qinxiu kept looking at him.
Hei Bai notice and yell, “Why do you keep staring at our prince?!” He give Wan Qinxiu the cold glare.
Physician Wan smiles and continues looking ignoring Hei Bali’s questions. He looks at Mu Yuhan and said dreamily, “I heard that Demon Prince Mu Yuhan’s beauty is unparalleled in this world and is also tied to Heavenly Realm’s First Prince Lan Shuixin’s beauty. Now that I see in person, I cannot deny the fact that the rumors are true. He is indeed a true beauty that can rival Lan Shuixin.” He puts his hands on his face leaning his elbow on the table and said it dreamily.
Hei Bai, Mo Qingfeng, and Mu Yuhan felt awkward all of a sudden. He is a man, but looks at a man and said things so unruly?! Is he a cut sleeve?! They all thought so inside their head. Mo Qingfeng coughs to interrupt the awkward moment, “Brother Wan ah you joke too much.” Wan Qinxiu turn to look at Mo Qingfeng and added, “But in Earth Realm, I heard that Qingyun’s sect has a handsome beauty that no other can rival his appearance in any kingdom and that is Qingyun’s number 1 swordsman, Mo Qingfeng.” Then he looks away and out the window, “I cannot believe I am surrounded by beauties. It’s a dream come true,” he sigh dreamily in his own fantasy.
Mo Qingfeng shook, “Don’t listen to rumors Brother Wan,” he felt embarrassed with the compliments he received just now. He blushes which he rarely blushes when men complimented him.
“Enough teasing,” said Physician Wan, “Let us get into business. Tell me about this patient I am seeing. What illness does he or she has?” He changes the topic quickly.
Hei Bai was about to reply but Mu Yuhan happen to speak first, “It is my cousin Wan Qingqing. She fell ill all of a sudden and no other doctors we hired can save her. So we heard of you. Hearing that you cured Lan Shuixin, perhaps you must have a way to save Wan Qingqing.”
“Do you know the cause?” Physician Wan asks calmly sipping his tea. ‘Hmph, I know this is your idea. I will play along and see what you’re up to.’ He smirks.
Mu Yuhan reply, “The illness is unknown that is why I came to invite you personally.” He smirks, ‘Just you wait… I cannot wait to make Wang Xiaolian hate you. She will find out the truth about you soon.’
