463. Extra: Die for Love
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou had been together for more than ten years.
Over the years, they had been spending less time on handling daily affairs. The two of them often left the work to some ministers and occasionally asked the Shadow Guardians to secretly supervise them.
They travelled around the world.
Over the years, Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan seemed tired of staying in the Imperial City, so they often went out and wandered around.
For example, if someone paid a lot of money for his treatment where there were famous and interesting places or delicious food, Liu Suifeng would go with Ouyang Chuan.
Long Xiaoyuan was quite envious of Liu Suifeng. After staying in the palace for a long time, he began to yearn for the life of roaming outside. Therefore, sometimes when Liu Suifeng went out to treat people, Long Xiaoyuan would follow him, taking s.h.i.+ Qingzhou along.
In this way, Long Xiaoyuan had been to many places over the years. As the emperor, he was really carefree. He decided to pa.s.s the throne to Long Huan when the child turned sixteen. He longed for the days when he could roam around with s.h.i.+ Qingzhou holding swords.
If they were tired, they would find a place to settle down and rest for a while. He often went back to the Imperial City, as s.h.i.+ Qingzhou had his family.
And Long Xiaoyuan had to see his son.
This time, Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou followed Liu Suifeng out to treat patients.
Speaking of which, they had been to this place before. The rich merchant who invited Liu Suifeng was in Songye City.
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan had many memories in this city.
Both of them were shocked because Long Xiaoyuan had been taken away, and he was forced to jump into Songye River with Liu Suifeng.
Long Xiaoyuan really didn’t want to recall those savage days.
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou, on the other hand, had a bad memory about this place because of his worries.
However, it was long time ago, and both of them had complicated feelings with the city, so they decided to come over with Liu Suifeng.
When Liu Suifeng went to treat the merchant, Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou went to Songye River, holding hands.
They looked up at the cliff, and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said, “What were you thinking when you jumped down from there?”
Long Xiaoyuan turned to s.h.i.+ Qingzhou. “I was thinking that even if I had to die, I would die with dignity. I can’t die in someone else’s hands. In this world, there are only two people who can kill me. One is me, and the other is you, Qingzhou. ”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou’s heart trembled. Although they had been together for more than ten years, as time went on, their love didn’t fade but got deeper.
The tacit understanding between the two of them was getting better, and they valued each other even more.
“Qingzhou.” Long Xiaoyuan smiled and kissed s.h.i.+ Qingzhou’s mouth when he saw s.h.i.+ Qingzhou’s touched expression.
“Don’t you think I’m right? In this world, you are the only one who can kill me. Others are nothing to me.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou took a deep breath and suddenly said, “Do you want to jump again?”
Long Xiaoyuan was startled “What?”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said slowly, “Last time you jumped with Liu Suifeng, but this time, I’ll accompany you.”
Long Xiaoyuan laughed. “Qingzhou, are you jealous?”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said lightly, “You think too much.”
Long Xiaoyuan loved the way s.h.i.+ Qingzhou showed his affection. He hugged him in his arms and held his neck with all his strength, “Qingzhou, okay, we jump together.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou looked down and said softly, “Okay.”
It was summer, and the river was quiet. Most importantly, s.h.i.+ Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan didn’t think that the river would be difficult for them.
Long Xiaoyuan thought, ‘It’s like dying for love. It seems quite romantic.’
On the riverside, the two of them held hands and jumped down together.
At that moment, Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan came to look for them, and they saw two figures leaping down.
Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan were dumbfounded.
Liu Suifeng said, “What are they doing? Swimming or killing themselves?”
Ouyang Chuan said, “They can’t be killing themselves. If they are seeking death, won’t the Shadow Guardians stop them?”
Liu Suifeng shouted, “Ying Feng, Ying Qiu!”
The two leaders of Shadow Guardians appeared at the same time.
“Is your master dying for love?”
Ying Feng said calmly, “They are revisiting the place. I don’t know what is on my master’s mind.”
Ouyang Chuan said thoughtfully, “You jumped into the river with Long Xiaoyuan last time.”
Liu Suifeng blinked, confused. “And then?”
Ouyang Chuan looked at him and said lightly, “Perhaps s.h.i.+ Qingzhou is disgruntled that you jumped off with Long Xiaoyuan back then.”
Liu Suifeng was speechless. “So he wants to jump with him this time?”
Ouyang Chuan said lightly, “Yes.”
Liu Suifeng was lost for words, thinking s.h.i.+ Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan were silly.
To his surprise, Ouyang Chuan said lightly after a moment, “Actually, every time I recall that you and Long Xiaoyuan might die together, I’m not happy either.”
Liu Suifeng was shocked. “Ouyang…”
Ouyang Chuan looked away.
Liu Suifeng hurriedly clung to him. Suddenly, he realized why Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou had to jump again. Dying for love should be done by lovers.
There was nothing between him and Long Xiaoyuan.
Liu Suifeng hugged Ouyang Chuan’s waist. “Ouyang, let’s jump together too.”
Ouyang Chuan looked at him.
Liu Suifeng said firmly, “Actually, every time I recall that I almost died with Long Xiaoyuan, I am not happy either. Only my Ouyang could die by my side. What is Long Xiaoyuan?”
Ying Feng and Ying Qiu looked over coldly.
Liu Suifeng shuddered. He pulled Ouyang Chuan to the riverside and said affectionately, “Ouyang, we live and die together in this life.”
Ouyang Chuan’s heart trembled, but he said lightly, “Don’t worry. We won’t die even if we jump.”
Liu Suifeng said with grievance, “Ouyang, I’m just telling you what I think.”
Ouyang Chuan ignored him and looked at the river in front of him. The next moment, Liu Suifeng held his hand, and two figures jumped into the river, Ying Feng and Ying Qiu frowned and came to the riverside.
Ying Qiu said, “Ying Feng, is this our master’s hobby? We shouldn’t jump and disturb them, right?”
Ying Feng was a little worried. “There won’t be an accident, right?”
Ying Qiu said indifferently, “I don’t think there will be any accidents. Besides, Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan went down too.”
Ying Feng thought about it and agreed. “That’s right. Let’s pick them up on the other side.”
“Leave some people here. The rest go to the other side and pick them up.”
“Okay. The river goes to the north. It will take a long time for them to come out.”
Thus, the two of them quickly left.
Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou went to the place where he and Liu Suifeng swam ash.o.r.e a few years ago. When Long Xiaoyuan was reminiscing about the past with his Qingzhou, two figures came out of the river.
Long Xiaoyuan’s face instantly darkened. “Why are you following us everywhere? What are you doing here?”
Liu Suifeng sneered. “We want to revisit this place. It’s not your business.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou and Ouyang Chuan have been on good terms over the years, and they would not quarrel like Long Xiaoyuan and Liu Suifeng.
Seeing that Ouyang Chuan had also come, s.h.i.+ Qingzhou understood why they came, so he waved at Ouyang Chuan.
Ouyang Chuan walked up to him.
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said lightly, “Let’s go ahead and take a look.”
Ouyang Chuan nodded. “Okay.”
After the two of them had left for some time, Long Xiaoyuan and Liu Suifeng finally came to their senses.
“Qingzhou, wait for me!”
“Ouyang, wait for me!”
The two of them cried, but they didn’t catch up immediately. They knew there was a shortage of water ahead, so they had to bring some water…
Back then, Liu Suifeng was injured, and Long Xiaoyuan’s martial arts were not good, but they managed to come out. After more than ten years, Long Xiaoyuan was kind of a second-rate expert. Besides, they didn’t jump from the cliff, so none of them were injured.
It was like an outing for them.
They revisited this place without the anxiety. With the one he loved by his side, Long Xiaoyuan replaced the bleak memory with the new happy one.
At night.
The four people slept in the wilderness.
It was summer, so it wasn’t cold.
They didn’t sleep on hays, and the two pairs slept separately. No one wanted to be a third wheel. They liked to be intimate with their beloved.
On Long Xiaoyuan’s side.
“Qingzhou, take the sky as our blanket and the earth as our bed… Let’s do it.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou glanced at him indifferently. “I don’t want to.”
Long Xiaoyuan was upset. “Why?”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou smiled. “I just don’t want to.”
Long Xiaoyuan was speechless.
In the end, Long Xiaoyuan in disappointment held s.h.i.+ Qingzhou in his arms. When s.h.i.+ Qingzhou was dozing off, Long Xiaoyuan’s hands slipped into s.h.i.+ Qingzhou’s clothes…
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou was woken up, saying helplessly, “You…”
Long Xiaoyuan quickly kissed his mouth, and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou clung to him with half reluctance.
On the side of Ouyang Chuan.
Liu Suifeng said, “Ouyang, let’s do it.”
Ouyang Chuan turned his back to Liu Suifeng.
Liu Suifeng clung to him cheekily. “Ouyang, I jumped into the river with you.”
Ouyang Chuan sneered. “You pulled me.”
Liu Suifeng was lost for words.
Ouyang Chuan said fiercely. “Go to sleep!”
Liu Suifeng was disappointed, but Ouyang Chuan was not moved. In the end, Liu Suifeng could only hold him in his arms and went to sleep in sorrow.
It could be seen that he couldn’t compare with other people.
