"So you are lying to Xu. Tell me! Why would you lie to him?" He had to protect his prince.

Li Qinghao looked up and unclenched Nancheng Lie"s fingers which had left fingerprints on his chin.

"Why would I lie to him?" Li Qinghao asked with a smile with his brows raised.

"You haven"t lost your memory. You still remember me."

"Is it because of the "long time no see" I said to you?" Li Qinghao shook his head, smiling slightly, "If I tell tou I don"t have any of Li Qinghao"s memory, will you believe it? If I tell you said that because you only looked a familiar, will you believe it? They told me we were in a relations.h.i.+p before, right? If we did, it does make sense that I feel that way, doesn"t it?"

Nancheng Lie could tell Li Qinghao was that Li Qinghao before, but his eyes didn"t lie.

 "Honesty is a good virtue in the world. But there is no rule or law that says I have to be honest with anyone. Right?" Li Qinghao gave a look at Nancheng Lie who was dumbfounded and then walked away.

It thundered with lightening outside and a moment later it stormed with heavy wind. The wind swept away the window on the porch and onto Li Qinghao.

In the darkness, he was as n.o.ble and mysterious as an elf.

He paused and looked back, "while I feel familiar with you, do you also feel the same way?"

It was quiet. But Nancheng Lie was having a storm inside.

How did Li Qinghao know how he felt?

Li Qinghao looked at the confused Nancheng Lie with a smile. He knew it because Nancheng Lie"s eyes spoke when he looked at him.

Although Nancheng Lie didn"t realize it, he seemed to see Han Mingxu"s soul in Li Qinghao..

When Li Qinghao returned to the room, Keqi was already gone. Looking at the empty house, he was…surprisingly calm inside.

The rainstorm still continued. Nancheng Lie was driving in the rain. It was strange that his heart was pounding wildly, which only happened when he was with Xu. But how come his heart beats so wildly when he was with that toy boy?

Urgh…

Nancheng Lie got out of the car and yelled to the sky, eyes closed. The rain got into his mouth. It was a bit salty. Then he realized it was his tears.

Xu…Xu…

He cried for the name he had been thinking of, his best friend, the man he loved.

His love for him was too overwhelming to take. Given time, he might be unable to control his mind. Just now when he saw Han Mingxu and Li Qinghao together, he had the urge to tell Xu that he loved him.

Once again he got himself under control. All he did was to talk to Li Qinghao privately. But why did he see the shadow of Xu in Li Qinghao? Why?

It can"t be… He must be mistaken.

Li Qinghao"s quiet and handsome shadow popped out of his mind again. This time he decided to ignore him... Next time, if he seduced Xu again, he wouldn"t go easy on him. HeNever!

At the same night, Keqi felt differently but same complicatedly.

He sat on the sofa, holding a wine gla.s.s in his hand. He took a sip.  It was nice but only to his taste bud, not to his heart. The wine was good wine. It was not the wine"s fault, but his. His heart had changed.

Bang!

He threw the gla.s.s onto the wall. The wine scattered on the floor and wall, and a few drops on his face.

He licked the wine on his face, curling his lips up.
