Run Away Little Darling(Complete)

Chapter 6: Wedding gone wrong

In the Hei kingdom, the Mai Household is quite lovely, red lanterns were hanging all around. Different demons of the underworld are roaming around holding precious gifts and flaunting their riches to each other. 

Festive music permeated in the air.

However inside the chambers of the groom, the mother and son were arguing.

"Cui er! If you won't marry her! I will disown you!"

"But mother, you, of all person should know why I am against this marriage!"

"This is decreed by the demon emperor, if you refuse then what would happen to our family?!"

The tension was sparkling, but outside the manor beautiful young deities were out to hunt for a partner.

A horn blew and everyone looked at the sky to see a floating carriage that belongs to the imperial family. Landing swiftly in front of the gate, soldiers from the household lined up then opened the door.

It was Hei Lan and his brother, Hei Xie!

Stepping out is the gorgeous first prince, Hei Lan, even if he's married, every demoness would still want to be his concubine. The young ladies look at him with hearts in their eyes while the young men look at him with admiration.

Followed by him is the feared fourth prince, Hei Xie, gorgeous as his brother what set him apart were his beautiful grape eyes unlike for Hei Lan that has brimming red eyes.

For every demon living in the Hei empire, what sets them apart from the other kingdom in the netherworld were their brimming red eyes. Having another shade of eye color is rare.

All of them feared him because of the aloofness he exudes, but they couldn't hide their admiration on him.Feeling irritated on their gazes, Hei Xie, glared at them which made them all bow.

Hei Lan helplessly shrugs and sighed as he pats his brother.

"Xie er, stop scaring the guests and don't turn this happy event into a doom's day event."

"I am here for business."

Watching his brother Hei Lan couldn't help but mumble, "Did mother fell in love with an ice and rudeness? Why did brother have such temperament?!"

Remembering the foolish smile of their father, he couldn't think where Hei Xie got his odd temper.

--------

The little bun insisted on going with his mother. He felt that something would go wrong so he needs to be with his mother to ensure she is safe.

Looking at her mother dressed beautifully in a bright red wedding attire he felt saddened that an unknown creature would steal her from him, then the groom must be his father! No one else!

Little bun knew he wants a complete family, this is his dream.

"Qieqie, don't worry mommy will just be acting as a bride. I am not going to get married so stop sulking my little bun," she pinches his adorable cheeks.

"Jiejie, thank you for helping me out on this one. I promise I will pay you back a hundredfold," little bun looked at his aunt.

Entering the carriage they set off on their journey.

As they inched closer and closer to the Hei kingdom, Little Yi who is sleeping felt his father near!

"Mother-"

"Cousin please bear with this for a moment! I promise you, we will exchange when we enter the Mai household. I just need to find the blacksmith who makes those rings. I promise you I will come back before the ceremony begins at the appointed time. Don't worry along your parade a few buddies of mine will appear to stall."

Hua Chun Meili grabbed her cousin's hand, she looked at her and with all seriousness she said, “Return quickly because I'd rather cross a lava than be tied!”

She threw a quick glimpse on her distracted son, “I'm still on the run from his Father and I don't want another lover, so you better come quick.”

Chu Qie chuckled at the blatant display of her cousin's dislike to the male species, she nodded and quickly made an exit.

Hua Yiqie felt excitement rushing like an adrenaline on his veins, because his father's presence could be felt. His eager eyes blink as his hands tried to reach for his Mother.

"Mother," he called but he was pulled by Kiki and Kun.

“Yiqie, listen well to Mother, don't leave Kiki and Kun's side. Mother just needs to do

something.”

“But-” he is an obedient child thus he wanted to tell her that his father's presence is near, however, his mother is too focused on the task.

“Wait for me at the manor and take care of Yiqie,” She instructed, as she left the carriage.

Hua Yiqie could only helplessly open and close his mouth like a goldfish, in anger he folds his arms and decisively put an I-don't-care-anymore attitude.

Arriving on the Mai household, little Yiqie wanted to run out of the carriage upon sensing his Father's presence stronger.

Kun was puzzled because the little bun was as fidgety and jumpy as a little puppy that's about to be taken out for a walk.

"Young master, do you need to go to the loo?" Upon his query he received a glare which made him shudder, what did he do?

How uncute.

Kiki was focused on the task, but somehow the wine's aroma.

She is a wine fairy whilst her brother was a fairy that could transform into objects, thus she easily got distracted on the wine's aroma.

"It smells awful, I need to-.. No I must resist. But I really can't stand the state of the wine!"

After the battle between her instincts and rationality, the former won and without the two boys noticing she slips away. She started looking for those awfully brewed wine- her hand itching she needed to fix it!

Kun kept his eyes on the little bun, however when his eyes landed on an exquisite carefully crafted flute.

He was eager to check it, he was actually a house fairy thus he has an obsession with objects, specially those shiny beautiful ones! Whilst the two babysitters were distracted the little bun wasn't a fool not to notice it!

After all it was him he secretly lead them to the objects they are obsessed with. He hastily walked away and run to find his father!

Father, this filial son has come to find you!

Running on his short little legs he went to a direction leading him to an area where there were less demons. His eyes shiny, his heart thumping in excitement, his legs eager to lead!

------

Hei Xie hurriedly went to find his brother.

He walks in a path going to the garden of the Mai household unknowingly his filial son and him went past each other, going on opposite ways.

The two paused as they felt a very familiar connection. Hei Xie thought it was his brother, but his eyebrows met when he analyzed the energy because it was much stronger. The eager little Yiqie's head was looking sidewards.

"Your highness," a maid's voice called. Hei Xie threw a glance at the maid, she took this as an acknowledgement, "Madam Mai seeks for you presence."

He answered with a nod and followed her lead, he needed to deal with this matter first, besides that no-sense-of-direction brother of his isn't a sissy.

Hei Lan's eyes spiraled and his legs were shaking upon realizing he was lost! He dejectedly sat on the ground counting one to ten for his brother to find him. Not even reaching two big fat tears were cascading on his cheeks!

Hua Yiqie was even dejected when he felt his Father's presence fading, with a sulking face he continues walking and still attempting to continue his quest.

Hei Lan was depressed for the nth time because he was lost. There were no servants nor guards because they were all gathered to watch the marriage.

"Mister," a cute bell-like voice called.

Turning around he nearly sucked in all the oxygen because the child calling out to him is a mini version of Hei Xie!

Indeed, kindred souls find each other.

He knew it is impossible because his brother loathes all goddess and women. There were many attempts by women to get him, but, he simply turns a cold shoulder at them.

"Are you lost?" Hei Lan asked.

Just who is the lost one between them!

"No, but are you?" he asks.

"En,"nodding," I know I am already big but I have really no sense of direction. This is really embarrassing," hiding his face in shame.

He thought he would be laugh at, however, the little bun did the unexpected. He pulls one of his hand and cutely said.

"Mother always tells me that everyone has a weakness and a fear, so uncle must not be ashamed."

-"Gege,j don't be ashamed."

Hei Lan looks at the little bun in astonishment, for a moment he thought he saw Hei Xie.

He still remembers when he was seven years old he often would be lost in the palace, so his siblings would make fun of him.

Even the subjects of his father would mock him behind his back. Only the three-year-old Hei Xie willingly took his hand and help him direct the right path and it would always happen.

"Uncle are you alright?" the little bun ask.

"Yep I am," Han Lei thanked the child when they are near the exit.

"Ah by the way child. Who are you looking for?" he asks.

"I am looking for my father!" he suddenly blurted.

Hei Lan's smile widened upon seeing how filial he is, making him cute in his eyes.

Suddenly his mind drifted on his little spawn, Hei Su, would be like this child in front of him, a filial child to his father, not a mama's boy!

Unfortunately, his demand for a girl has never been heard but he won't give up!

"You know, you resemble someone I know," he couldn't help but say.

The little one tilted his head in curiousity whilst his mouth drew an 'O'.

"Is Yiqie and that person very alike? How alike?"

Thus, the unsuspected uncle and nephew babbled as they walk hand in hand.

A little maid who accidentally saw them gave a smile at the sweet image, but then upon recognizing Hei Lan's identity she was puzzled, "Ara~ the little boy looks like that purple eyed prince or am I seeing double?"

After the cutesy mini Hei Xei left, he is glad he is back at the venue and plans to stay there until his brother finds him.

Little Yiqie decided to return back to Kun and Kiki, when the scale pendant he made from Little Blue suddenly glowed he changed his mind!

He held the scale as his little feet leads him. Amidst the crowd he saw a familiar built.

"Little Blue!" He shrieks then pounced at him.

Wu Long was looking at the children running around he started to miss his little master until a little figure clutched on his thighs.

Looking down, his eyes nearly pop out!

"Young master!" he cries as he hugs the little bun then threw him up and down.

"Why are you here young master? Where is mistress?" he asks nervously when it dawned to him.

"Mother is now at the wedding covering for aunt," he implied while happily dangling at his neck.

'Then the chances they would meet is high!'

And he knew this is not an ordinary meet up, because for some reason the Young Lady held grudge on his Master.

..

In the heavenly realm the fairies were all in distress when another ruckus of Emperor So La happened.

"Reporting to his Majesty, the seventh Hua has came back... with a child."

The emperor's hand holding the brush quivered, "Child?"

Before his plan to execute the bet, she had already made steps on how to cheat out of their bets when she disappeared.

He deeply lamented about the loss of an interesting daughter-in-law, but it can't be helped, he reached towards the red scroll and decided to burn it.

However he was surprised because the scroll remained unscratched, he was definitely sure the scroll, he had written the fate of how Seven Hua would fall in love with his son, isn't ordinary.

He hurriedly unfold and read the contents, the eunuch, who watched his expression turn red to green then lastly to black, suddenly had a bad feeling.

Emperor So La angrily destroyed his table to dust, "Where is the Deity of Destiny?"

He looked like he was trying to control his anger but was slipping.

"Answering His Majesty, he was on leave and his whereabouts are unknown."

The study suddenly trembled and everything started cracking, the eunuch was trying to calm him down whilst begging not to destroy anymore.

The red scroll remained safe, besides what the Emperor had written, there is a one line that had caused the disruption of the whole plot of the fate written, "The Third Prince and Seventh Hua's written fate shall have unexpected events."

Third prince, Shu, came to stop his father. He sighed upon seeing the room all chaotic.

"Imperial Father, please quell your anger," he hurriedly requested but it fell into deaf ears.

The servant who was at the scene hurriedly informed him about the cause of the mess upon meeting Shu's gaze.

"Seventh Miss Hua has returned... this time she has a child."

The third prince stiffened and his face slowly darkens, he clenched his fists and bit his tongue in anger and bitterness.

He turned silent for minutes before his whole body shook in laughter, "Did you think I would let you go even if you have a child?"

The Third Prince forgot about appeasing his father and left the room in a rush leaving the servant who was scared to wits when he witnessed the blackening of the ever gentle third prince.
