Chenglei licked the blood by the corners of his mouth. Seeing his adorable brother getting this worked up and even punching him in the face, he knew how much he screwed up." After everything she went through for your sake... You.... You...", the Emperor"s lips trembled in anger, "You do not deserve her", the Emperor gritted his teeth. He was fisting his hand stopping himself from hitting his brother more.
Chenglei looked above without getting up from the floor.
What is that about? She went through what for me? Is that somehow related to me forgetting her?
And... My brother... Isn"t he getting too angry for her sake? What is that about?
"Why are you getting this angry? ", he couldn"t help but probe more even though his mouth stung and his head ached along with the disorientation he felt. That really was a strong punch. He didn"t think his little brother had it in him. His entire mouth is filled with blood.
Is there more to his brothers
"Why? You"re asking me why?", the Emperor gritted his teeth.
"SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MINE!"
"Ha... Ha...Ha...",Chenglei laughed showing his teeth reddened with his blood.
What"s with this new development? JiaXing and Junjie? No way! No frigging way! Didnt she clearly explained about her duty as the divine ruler previously? So why is he thinking this way about my wife still? He is not serious, is he?
While Chenglei was getting his temper rising,
The Emperor stood there fisting his hands wondering why such words came out of his mouth. Maybe because he knew his fate, maybe because he had no luck in his love- life or maybe he was angry his brother treated his designated mate like that...
But is that what I really feel? That she was supposed to be mine? Mine? My true love? I did fall for her before I knew she was my brother"s. Did I never get out of my feelings? She never gave me a chance to even talk to her about it. She was cruel that way.
Is the feeling I have towards her, love?
Who knows?
But she does not love me! I know for sure that!
Do I want to steal her?
No!
And what am I doing now? Aren"t I making a bigger misunderstanding?
How stupid of me!
As the Emperor was in deep thoughts, his brother"s laughter disturbed him.
"You think I am lying? It"s the truth though. She was fated to be with me. But it.... Ahhh! "
The Emperor screamed as he felt a strong pull by his ankle and he fell on the floor backwards and the next moment she felt something heavy over him and a tightness in his throat.
" Junjie! ... She was fated to be yours? Exactly! She WAS.... She WAS supposed to be yours, she WAS fated to be yours. But she never WAS and never WILL be yours or anyone else"s. She WAS, IS and WILL be mine forever. I have proof.Don"t think you can make me believe otherwise. And...even if it wasn"t the case, I really don"t care. No matter who her past was with, her future will be with me",Chenglei"s screamed out of the top of his lungs even forgetting where he was, with his hands fisted to punch his brother but paused seeing his brother"s bloodied collar.
Also screaming his heart out did give a liberating feeling and his heart felt light.
Yes! I want to share our future, together! But maybe I should look for our past. Isn"t that creating problems with us? If our past is interlocking with our future, I shouldn"t take a chance by not knowing it. I previously decided to not look for her past and that lead to where we are now.
I need to know our past. If I loved her enough to reveal my well kept secrets like my birth time to her, I should have loved her and trusted her deeply. I must find out about it.
"Get up", Chenglei let out a deep breath and pulled his brother up as his time became gentle. He is his little brother and it is no use las.h.i.+ng out on him.
He saw a small cut in his neck that caused the bleed and took a look at it. It must be the shards of the tea set on the floor that cut him.
"I know she is only yours. But there is the truth you never seem to remember no matter how many times I mention it to you. Let me see if you could hear it now", The Emperor knitting his brows, hissing in pain, slapped his brother"s hands off of his neck and went to the table to get a clean kerchief to press on his cut.
"There wasn"t anyone other than you in her heart", the Emperor turned and looked at Chenglei as he said. Chenglei took a deep breath. This is something that he hears a lot these days. And everytime he hears it, her despaired voice reaches his ears.
"Did you think I am that kind of woman who betrays her heart?"
"She was fated to be mine", the Emperor spoke as he sat in his dragon throne snapping Chenglei out of his thoughts,
"But you met her and she changed your fate and saved your life. Then it all went confusing even for the G.o.ds to handle. She went through a lot for you and so did you. There is..."
"Why did I forget her?", Chenglei asked as that is what bothering him more. These other things, he already could guess.
" Find her and talk to her about it", the Emperor spoke dismissively. He just then noticed Consort Jiang outside and wondered how much she had heard.
For some reason, he felt his heartbeat racing seeing her through the gap in the door.
What if she misunderstood? I obviously don"t care about Mingxia that much. I want Hanmi to know that.
d.a.m.n you brother! Why did you scream like that? How will I let Hanmi know that I am not in love with anyone else right now?
But... Wait...
Why do I care if she misunderstands? Isn"t she another woman inside the Palace who expects something in exchange for their stay here?
What is this feeling? Why is my heart racing this much? Why does it ache thinking Hanmi might misunderstand?
The Emperor patted his chest.
Am I scared? Scared that this puny woman might create rumours?
I"m the frigging Emperor. I can end her life just like that if I wish for it. Why would I fear her?
No, this is not fear. What else might it be?

"You okay?", Chenglei poured some warm water for his brother who looked fl.u.s.tered and scattered his thoughts.
What was that about? Why is he acting like a... Teenager taking a glance at his first love? ,Chenglei wondered. As the one who was an outsider he could see at one glance what his brother truly is feeling.
"Tsk! Why are you still here? Your face look hideous. What if you scare somebody?", the Emperor pushed Chenglei who was blocking the view of Consort Jiang.
" Scare somebody?", Chenglei mumbled and only then he noticed the Consort standing outside to get an audience.
"Should I kill her? How much did she hear?", Was Chenglei"s first thought but seeing his brother who is the father of three children acting like a twelve year old boy, fixing his hair and robes and tidying his table,he just changed his mind.
My little brother fell in love!
First love is wonderful, isn"t it?
"Why are you still standing here? Get lost! Your face is swelling? Geez! Did I hit you that hard? Go....", the Emperor stood up and hissed
, "You"ll scare the women. Don"t show your face to anybody. And don"t let anyone know that I punched you. I don"t want to be known as an abusive man. Why are you still standing? Go.... Go.... "
Chenglei was pushed out of the Imperial study through the window.
" Get in! ", he spoke in an authoritative voice after composing himself taking a couple of deep breaths.
Chenglei who was punched and pushed out through the window in the same day by his adorable little brother went to his home reaching to a decision.
