Beautiful Prisoner [Completed]

Longing For You



Jiang main hall erupts into chaos, hissing and murmuring occupy the space after Jiang Wuxian's daring proposal towards Lan family. Trio LAN knew perfectly for who's the proposal direct to, as Wuxian eyes keep drifting to the youngest Lan. Lan Xichen attempting to suppress his amused smile while Lan Qiren gawks at the blatant public proposal. Lan Qiren and Lan Xichen exchanging opinions through their eyes, reaching for the same resolution with no spoken word.

Shock is an understatement for Jiang Feng Mian. Marriage is always a taboo pledge for his son, Jiang Wuxian. Every time he brought up the topic, Wuxian would make excuses to avoid it.

He is still too young.

He prefers to learn all things in the world without feeling responsible for someone.

He demands to serve the sect unrestricted by another commitment.

Sometimes, Jiang Feng Ming didn't have time to open his mouth, Wuxian already vanishes into the air.

Thus, he had rejected several good proposals from other sects. Wuxian agreement for courting session with candidates from Nie and Jin last night after long persuasion already surprised him, what else, his marriage-allergic son is willingly purposing someone as his spouse in public.

Jin Lusi clenches her dress until the knuckles turn white, glare hard towards scene unfold in front of her. Jin Guangyao notices his sister's hidden rage, comforts her with caress touch on her fist. Lusi glance at Guangyou who gave her reassure smile. It isn't a secret that Lusi harbor deep feelings for Wuxian since their teens' day. She follows every news about Wuxian, kissing every step wuxian taken and obsess with him. Jin sect keep sending the marriage proposal every year and being rejected, but Lusi never gives up. Finally this year, she had a chance to attend courting session only to be ruined by small fry from Gusu. It's unacceptable and hurts her pride.

Meanwhile, two men in center of attention staring at each other or glaring for Wanji part. Wuxian gaze is challenging him, glint with mischief, Wanji clenches his jaw for the shameless, arrogant man in front him.

"Ehem" Lan Qiren clears his throat to ease the tension in the air. Everyone's attention now on him.

"i beg your pardon, my young warrior. It such an honor to receive the glorious proposal from you. It will be wonderful to strengthen our bond through sacred relationship. However, Lan rules stated we hand over our child to decide their partner by themselves. So..." Lan Qiren trail off, tilts his body to gesture his nephews to deliver the answer by themselves. Wuxian smirk when he's seeing Wanji glower at him, ready to open those plump alluring lips.

"I refuse" Wanji cold firm voice penetrates the thick air. Once again the hall echoes with whispering and gossiping. Wuxian almost stumbles upon Wanji blatant rejection, and he glared sharply to Jiang Cheng for snickering on his pity heart. Lan Xichen warily glance between his brother and grand commander Jiang Wuxian while Lan Qiren bites his lips from upcoming smile.

Deep in his heart, Lan Qiren delighted when promising great cultivator like Wuxian proposing his nephews. After all, who didn't know the great Jiang Wuxian? his names alone will make enemy fall into knees and friends feel safest, infamous high morally and virtue. Yet, Wanji is Lan Qiren pride. A pride that worth more than treaty gift. If Wuxian truly want his Wanji, then Wuxian has to work harder because Wanji isn't same as other candidates that will submit himself to man in power without fight. Lan Qiren had taught him well.

Lan Xichen step forward upon Lan Qiren sign.

"i humbly accepted the proposal" Lan Xichen fight the urge to laugh seeing Wuxian pale face.

"Good then. Jiang gonzi, my eldest nephew, steps up to deepen our bond. May Gusu and Jiang bond will be everlasting" Lan Qiren maintain his calm clueless character well.

Jiang Wuxian awkwardly laugh to hide his anxiety upon the unexpected twist. Rubbing his nape in a helpless smile before his peripheral eyes caught Wanji little smirk upon his misery.

"So that is it,, huh? The challenge is so on. Lan Wanji, I will make you mine" Wuxian thought to himself, helpless expression shift to his usual confident smirk, gaze lit with determination with hint of mischief. Jiang Feng Mian was ready to help his son, since it so obvious which Lan had caught Wuxian' eyes but watching Wuxian dedication posture, he held back, waiting for how the story unfolds.

"Sincere apologize if my next word offends my new allies, but isn't zewu-Jun is the next heir for Gusu?" The tone of Wuxian's voice made it less a question and more of a statement. Unwaver Wuxian, make Lan trio taken aback a little, Lan Xichen gave a curt nod of his head and now Wuxian got Wanji attention as the younger Lan curious gaze is now on him, watching him, trying to decipher his intention.

"As most people knew, I probably will be taken the next seat as Jiang leader" Wuxian exclaimed with raised an eyebrow, vibing so much with leadership aura. The others in the main hall, including Jiang Feng Mian and Jiang Cheng murmured and nodded their agreement to Jiang Wuxian' word.

"For two potential leaders being united in marriage is a a bad predicament. As in our nature to fight for dominant and overpower each other. Our responsibilities for sect will be redundant and overlapping. History had proven that how hectic life for two leaders in marriage that lead to unhappy marriage. For me, although cultivator is my priority, I wish for happy marriage as my comfort home" Wuxian eyes trail on Wanji, slightly bow to him and wink.

"Shameless" Wanji murmured heatedly, although his face is stoic but his pale skin flushes in red upon Wuxian blatant flirting in public. One part, his heart is flutter, stomach tight in a knot upon Wuxian' effort asking for his hand, another part is irritated with Wuxian' overconfident gesture.

"Wuxian" Jiang Feng Mian reprimands his second son to behave. If anyone had doubted earlier, then now it must be clear on which Lan had stolen Wuxian' attention. Lan Qiren freeze for a second after watching a handsome lad openly flirting with his nephew, he only out of his shock when Lan Xichen gently touching his arm, asking whether he is ok.

Jiang Feng Mian clears his throat to calm the excited crowd, "Lan gongzi, each sect previously sent their potential suitor for our Wuxian. I honor each of them as it isn't only secure our allies but also a strong candidate to work hand in hand in handling cultivator matter. We're seeking for my son' wife and Furen of the house. Its a huge responsibility that normal people wouldn't dare to bear. It will be such an honor if you allow lan er gongzi to join courting session with others candidate. Who's know he is the one we're looking for" Jiang Feng Mian suggested hopefully for Lan Qiren to accept as he didn't have energy left for convincing the stubborn Lan Qiren as they did this morning. He had been watched Wanji for a while and there is no doubt that Wanji fill all criteria that he looked for Wuxian' partner, either in cultivator or spouse. Although he knew the courting session is fruitless, as his son already makes up his mind, but it must proceed as courtesy for Jin and Nie sect.

To their suprised, Lan Qiren agreed without refusal, support by smiling Lan Xichen. Now everyone eyes on Lan Wanji. Been putting in tight spot of cultivator' expectation and his desire. He hated the feeling of someone overpower him yet the thought of someone who isn't him to stand next to cheeky Great Commander Jiang Wuxian is annoyed him to the end. Not sure why, he just didn't like it. Wanji nodded slowly, thoughtfully and eyes stare straight, ignoring Wuxian excited grin who's continued to stare at him, make Wanji wonder if Wuxian could read his thoughts as those smiles just got wider and wider.

....................................................................

Jiang Wuxian stride to the kitchen with his informal black robe and red ribbon. Pleasant smile adorning his handsome feature seeing Lan Wanji at kitchen entrance, waiting.

"morning lan er gongzi. Such a plesant suprise seeing you here" Wuxian greeting cheerfully, chukled in amused after receiving Wanji wary glare. Although Wanji act calm but Wuxian can sense his presence affecting Wanji from the way youngest Lan quietly fidget on his spot. Realising that Wanji can't handle his presence and struggling to escaping him, avoiding his stare, Wuxian smirk in satisfaction because it means one thing. Wuxian already create an inner turmoil within those pretty brain and delicate heart.

A maid approach Wanji with motherly smile, hand him a basket of carrot and green leaf. Even though Wanji had urge to run from there as Wuxian presence is unbearable for him, the youngest Lan maintaned his manner.

"thank you, aunty" Wanji thanked the maid with quiet voice and polite smile, ignoring the Jiang young master staring at the exchange in fascinate. Bowing in respect, Wanji turn his body to leave the area as fast he can. His heart thump loudly whenever Wuxian is nearby, the new feeling that he never felt before and he didn't knew how to deal with it. Thus the perfect solution according to his logic mind is, run away.

Reading Wanji' intention, Wuxian move swifly to block Wanji way, making the second jade doer eyes widen in shock, lips open a bit. A perfect scene that Wuxian wish he can draw and frame as reminder that his eyes once blessed with the most magnificient of God' creation.

"move" Wanji exclaimed coldly. Although his heart stutter and stomach flip strangely, wanji manage to pull off his stoic facade, glaring dangerously towards Wuxian.

"did my revenge succeed?" Wuxian lips curling in cunning smile, step forward to Wanji who taken step aback until his waist meet the wooden rail, he will fall into pond if he take one more step. Wanji gulping nervously. "am i already here?" Wuxian asking delightly, his features soften, putting his palm on Wanji right chest, feeling the crazy heartbeat there. Their eyes met, scanning each other features.

"Jiang gongzi"

A loud cheerful voice shatter their sweet moment. Jin Lusi approaching them with broad grin. Wuxian step back from Wanji, making an innocent gap between them.

"Lusi xiaojie" Wuxian blessed Lusi with his charming smile, making Lusi face brighten up, cheeks turn red. Wanji can help but felt pang over their small interaction.

"Jiang gongzi, i make a small dish for your breakfast" Lusi gesture for her maid to bring the exquisite food boxes, reaching for it and give to Wuxian.

Wuxian features lighten up when food is involved. With a great gratitude, Wuxian thanking Lusi. Turned the girl into bashful receiving soft gaze from the man he admire since befofe. Wanji bite his lips from release sigh, and control his urge to roll his eyes upon the interaction front him.

"i grateful for the meal, thank you for the trouble. My gut saying this food will be extraordinarily delicious. Every thing touch by Lusi Xiaojie delicate hand will definilety turn to art" Wuxian sweet word melted Lusi and harden Wanji.

The audacity of Wuxian flirt with another in front him, make Wanji turn vinegar. Swallow his sour feeling, Wanji remind himself that Lusi also potential partner for Wuxian. Maintaned an expression of polite interest, wanji clear his throat and excuse himself. What's point he standing there been a third wheeling when he can mingle with less annoying rabbit. Wuxian try to chase over him but Lusi grab his arm, offering for having breakfast together. Out of courtesy, Wuxian accept the invitation while his eyes glance toward Wanji retreat figure from times to times.

Pulled out a small basket of vegetables and carrot, Wanji feeding his new fur friends. Smell the meal, five rabbits surround him, make his bitter heart lighten a bit. Letting out a soft sigh, Wanji basking in the serene moment. The rabbits minding their business, nibbling the food and trying to bump against him for attention. Petting his fur friends, Wanji mind suddenly wander to an earlier event. His smile falls into a cute pout, making a frustrated small noise at ridiculous thought.

"Tch, for a second I thought I'm special. He just a natural flirty man. i***t me" Wanji whining to chubby rabbit in his hand with quiet whisper.

...................................................................

Wuxian stroll around Jiang mansion looking for a certain person. Gaze glistening with relief seeing the said person is standing in his white robe, glory, distribute the blanket towards Gusu discipline.

Hand on his back, Wuxian bounce towards Wanji who didn't notice his existence yet. Before he can reach Wanji, another delightful voice greets him

"Jiang gongzi" Nie Yangzi greeting him with tender and clear voice. Upon hearing Wuxian' name, Wanji turns his face in their direction. Watching Wuxian teasing Yang Zi until the lady flush in red, spreading his charm until the ladies giggling surround him, another pang serge him.

"Jiang gongzi is such a charmer. No wonder boys and girls want to be with him" Nie Huisang appears out of nowhere with his fan. Wanji pretend he didn't hear the remark and continued his duty.

"My younger sister, Lusi said that her morning was splendid well. Jiang gongzi is good with word and such a gentleman" Jiang GuangYao joins the taunting, innocently smile showing his dimple to Wanji.

"i can't wait for the courting session day. I will ensure to grab his attention from the first glance. Such a man like Jiang Wuxian is hard to get. Beast in battleground and such a sweet lover in normal day" Nie Huisang dreaming with awe-struck expression.

"lan er gongzi, a tip of advice" Jiang Guangyao faked smile addressing Wanji. Make the latter turn his body to face him.

"Jiang Wuxian is all-rounder man. A great cultivator, wealth, power, charm. He had everything. We're no one aside from a pawn that dreams to even get his glimpse. We're grateful even for a tiny bit of attention from him. He is a free man, love is far from his dictionary. Don't assume his friendly and flirty habit as interest, you will get hurt at the end of day" Jiang Guangyoa utter in fake friendly tone, wanji can detect hint of hostile beneath it. Give a small hum and incline his head to show he was listening, wanji continue passing the blanket towards his discipline. Although outwardly he seems unaffected but his heart crack in disappointed, the faint sound of Wuxian and Yang Zi laugh taunt him

...................................................................

Wuxian struggle to excuse himself from Yangzi and her ladies. After a few excuses he pull here and there, finally the ladies reluctantly let him go. Unfortunately, Wanji isn't there anymore. Damn! the beauty was escaped from him again. Wuxian unintended let out a frustration sigh. It have been a day he play hide and seek with Wanji. He just want sat down and getting knew other man, well he want to do more but it's too early and he didn't think Wanji up to all his romantic idea, yet. Observing the sky, it's already evening, Wuxian once again start quest searching for the owner of his heart

Wanji stand at top of rock, watching waterfall flow in intense stream. His heart in turmoil, his mind is mess up. Hand clenching bitchen tightly. Wanji mentally scolding himself for forgetting his mission to get cloud recess back. He didn't have time for love and heartbreak. Streching his arm forward, eyes sternly studying bitchen. He will take back their home. Wuxian can pick up anyone else as partner. Althought the thought make his heart hurt but cloud recess is his priority. Using another hand to pull out bitchen from it case, Wanji swing the sword in battle posture. Start praticing his sword skill.

Eyes lit with fierce, his move is sure yet graceful, his hair flutter following the movement, Bitchen is dancing in the air with his owner rhythm when suddenly

Another sword clashing can be heard. Another encounter between light bitchen and demon suibian. Wanji retreat from the suprise attack but his battle posture is maintain. Wuxian smirk challenging him. The loud sound of waterfall turn deaf in their ears. All that they can hear is the sound of two legendary sword clashing each other. The nature is witness an epic battle of Suibian surge forward channeling his owner frustration of series rejection and bitchen dancing around hinted his owner rage of being played.

Wuxian duck down when Wanji swing bitchen on his head and lurge forward grabbing Wanji tiny waist. Both legendary sword release from their tight grip and fall into ground. Wanji unintended moan in pain when his back fall into ground and Wuxian hovering him. Realizing their position, Wanji swallowing hard, put his hand on Wuxian chest to push him away. Tired of being deny, Wuxin act faster and lean forwards, putting his thin lips into the plump moisted lips.

Wanji eyes wide in shock and it take him for a second to realize Wuxian is kissing him. Wanji pushed Wuxian' shoulder, Wuxian refuse to budge, instead he grab Wanji nape and kissing him hard. Wanji can feel the frustration and desire through Wuxian desperate kiss. His anger melted when Wuxian open his mouth and bite his lips eagerly. Wuxian putting his weight on Wanji slender frame to stop the latter struggling hard.

As the kiss getting intense, wuxian devour his mouth in passion, Wanji heart throb in intense. He couldn't deny Wuxian' love and desire to him anymore. Wanji breath heavily and eyes were heavy lidded when he felt Wuxian hot breath pants on his lips. Wuxian once again lean foward, only this time was gentler, chanelling his adoration and love towards beautiful man beneath him. Wanji rejection against his chest turned to tight grasp as he kissing him back. Wanji gave back as much his received, savoring the taste of his first kiss.

As human biology tell their body to breathe some oxygen, their kiss come to the end. Wuxian lean back to admiring Wanji' beauty, clouded eyes, messes hair, lips gasping for air and skin flushes in red. Such a perfert pictures.

Watching Wuxian lopsided grin, Wanji eyes became clearer and his mind became sharp. The alarm on his mind is rang aloud causing hectic. Wanji push Wuxian as hard he can, making the latter stumbles, caught off the guard. Wanji sprint pick up bitchen and run from there in panic.

Wuxian was taken aback of the sudden change in Wanji before an amused chuckle escaped his sexy swollen lips. Eyes fix on the direction Wanji run off

Wuxian lay back, spread out on the ground, watching the sky with happy smile
