The tale of Chu Qie

Chapter 16

I am thrown in a big black hole right now! I don't know what must I do!? Choice number one, slap him to make a sense out of him then leave! Choice number two, walk away and forget everything like nothing happened, when in fact, it really is a big deal! Choice number three, run away and hide!

I think choice number three is good for a three-fourths stupid and one-fourth genius like me. However leaving, walking away and running away has no help in my situation right now. Because he casted a spell right now, gluing me on the same spot. I can't feel my legs they are numb!

Furthermore, why am I transfixed to his eyes is this what they call the Deja Vu feels or maybe not.

His face is getting closer to mine. My sweat is pouring like a river, my eyes are becoming wider and my soul is already flying away! What is he doing?!

Me: Body moves away! Move away! The heart will have a heart attack soon if you don't move away!

Body: * To mesmerize in his charisma!*

Me: "....." Right, I am under a spell.

I close my eyes in reflex, then all I could hear is my heart beating as loud as a drum. While my lips were covered by his warm soft lips. And internally, I was imagining beating myself.

After he ended the kiss, he smiled then suddenly his face turned serious.

"You..." before he could even say a word. I felt that the spell he cast is gone, seeing this as an opportunity I hurriedly push him away and run like the wind.

Reaching my courtyard I was out of breath. What just happened? My heart was beating so fast. I was pacing back and forth, I stop then went again back and forth.

This time I feel really irritated, angrily summoning daggers. I lashed it out on the poor tree. By the time the tree is like a pin cushion all stab to bits by daggers, I halted.

Tears were brimming in my eyes while my heart is in chaos. I hate how he can easily break the defenses I built around me. But what I hate most is myself, letting my heart be easily appeased by his words. And I already forgot the scars he caused my heart!

They are right, people drunk in love is crazy and I am going crazy!

By the time morning came my eyes were like a panda's. My brain is in haywire and is malfunctioning, I tend to rethink the scene of him confessing and kissing me a hundred times!

Ahh~~my heart ~my mind~ and more importantly my soul is dying from stress.

"Morning princess," I greeted and sat at the dining table. My mind is running on many thoughts today like how should I face him? What must I do?

Ge~ more stressful questions! I can't take it anymore! I wanna flip a table! Let me flip a table!

"Honey~ Your face is black as a pot. Perchance, have you snuck out last night to scrape the charcoal on the cauldron at the kitchen because you have no more powder?" teased g*n Li Hyun to me while poking my cheeks and hovering all over me.

I glared at him and pinch his cheeks putting all my strength added with frustration and everything!

"Oh my, so lovey-dovey in the morning," commented Kang Zue which made us stop our silliness.

"Chenqie greets the two gongzis," I gave my curtsy while inside I am actually itching to scrape their faces.

"g*n Daren may I have a word with you."

We were startled when the cold face General suddenly talked.

Gun Liu Hyun looked at me and is like begging for mercy to save him from an unknown. While I gave him a show-him-your-the-man-stare. Standing he looked like he was constipated while he walked robotically. Then before they left he sent me a glare telling me vengeance is his once he returns.

Kang Zue and I stared at each other. The once gentle demure disappeared as he looks at me venomously.

"Kang Zue let's drop the act and get straight to the point."

"Hoho Miss Chu is right, actually I've been wanting to tell you this. Leave my man alone! Or you and your baby will suffer the consequences!"

My eyes darted,"Kang Zue let me ask you, behind your facade what are you really up to? I may be stupidly blind and a big loser in love. But I am no fool when it comes to situations that are fishy!"

I slouched while lazily playing with the food."What were you doing at the Eastern Border, at the Water Kingdom, at the City of Souls and at the mortal realm?"

He smiled deviously,"Miss Chu shouldn't involve herself in such situations beyond her capability. Furthermore, as I said I am already giving you a warning stay out of Mai Cui because he is mine."

"Claim him all you want, but can you stop a changing heart?" the question I threw made him frozen stiff.

I threw a dagger which only cut his right cheek then it disappeared in the air.

"Harm my baby and I don't mind biting your neck off! Don't treat me like a dog that once intimidated would hide away with my tails tucked between my legs! I'll tell you now, I am a tigress if you try pulling my tail I don't mind biting your head off!"

I stood then walked past him, then exited the stressful atmosphere. Never knew where my feet are leading me, I just walk aimlessly. Until I saw a wounded g*n Li Hyun under one of the maple trees while tending his wounds.

"Wow, you're all bruised," I joked which made him glare at me and started mumbling.

"Hmmph, your man was spilling a bucket of vinegar to me. Then unable to hold back he suddenly attacked me... Well technically I provoked him.. Let me tell you its like pulling the whisker of a lion, so terrifying," he complained like a child.

I laughed at his face then look at the peaceful blue sky.

"Hey, how do you treat a broken soul and heart?"

"Are you an i***t there is no such thing as broken hearts and soul because a heart is a flesh and not a vase while a soul cannot be touched!"

His ignorant reply made me look at him for about three seconds then gave him an i***t look.

A moment of silence, we were enjoying each others company.

"Hey," I called again.

"What?" he asks irritatedly.

"Why are people in love so blind and a fool. Simple words from the one they love can easily break the walls they built around themselves and make them hope to expect more from them?"

"I-I...," he looks at me flustered then angrily ruffled his hair, " Pei* pei* deities drunken in love are so complicated. Don't ask a playboy like me that question because I don't know!"

His responses are quite unique which made me laugh heartily forgetting the situation I am in to.

However, I can still imagine the God of fate drunkenly pulling my string and entangling it to the strings of Kang Zue and the hateful General. While he is clapping his hand and saying," Ahh~ a perfect scenario.. A perfect scenario.."

I really wanna meet him and pull his beard!
