Episode 8
Su Qingyu took the three of them to the city market...it was their first destination of the city tour....
Su Qingyu
This is the largest market in our city......you will find everything you need here...... please feel free to look around...*said smiling softly*
They started roaming around the market....they went to different kinds of shops....ate local food and many more....
While roaming around Xue Zeyuan stopped in front of an accessories shop.... which was selling different kinds of accessories mostly for girls.... Zeyuan's eyes landed on a beautiful bracelet...
He picked it up and asked the Shop owner....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
How much is this? Is this really expensive? *asked excitedly*
Shop owner
No it's not that expensive....are you buying it for your wife sir? *asked while smiling*
After hearing the question Xue Zeyuan's face dimmed.... and he realized that he's not a girl anymore....so couldn't act like one....even if he goes to buy stuff like this people will ask him questions specially in this time period....
He kept the bracelet in its place and left the shop while smiling
At the shop owner....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
*smiled sadly*
Su Qingyu and Xue Zhaoyan were waiting for Xue Zeyuan and Han Lingxiao to join them because they got left behind while roaming throughout the market....
After sometime four of them got united again...when Xue Zhaoyan said....
Xue Zhaoyan
Let's go we have more places to visit *said while looking at them*
They visited many more places....they went to see some fountains....they went to a hill near the city which gives the perfect view of the whole city.....and lastly they visited an old temple...
The temple was a bit far from the main city....it was located near a forest....which is why the place was also a bit isolated....
All of them stopped in front of the temple gate when Su Qingyu said....
Su Qingyu
This is the famous temple of our city....many people specially girls and couples come here to pray *said smiling softly*
Han Lingxiao(ml)
And why do they come here to pray? *asked curiously*
Su Qingyu
Well...girls come here to pray, so they can get an ideal husband....and couples come here to pray, so their marriage life goes smoothly....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Wow! That's great! *said excitedly*
They all chuckled after seeing how excited Xue Zeyuan is....
Xue Zhaoyan
Okay then let's go inside *said smiling*
Saying that they all went inside....
Everyone was looking around the temple when a monk came and asked....
Monk
How can I help you young fellows ? *asked in a weak voice*
Hearing the question Xue Zeyuan answered...
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Oh, we're here to visit the temple sir*said smiling*
The Monk noticed them for quite some time then said....
Monk
Are you all here to get blessings as couples for your happy marriage life? *asked curiously*
After hearing the question they all panicked and looked at each other.... Xue Zhaoyan was about to answer when Xue Zeyuan cut him off by saying....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Oh, no no....you've got it wrong sir we all are not couples *said smiling*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
But there are some people who have the potential to be a couple *said mumbling*
Xue Zeyuan mumbled the last words so no one can hear it.....
Monk
Oh...okay then please feel free to look around....also if you want to pray for blessings then please don't hesitate to look for me, I'll be inside the temple *said smiling*
Saying that the Monk went inside the temple....the rest of them again started looking around but Xue Zeyuan kept looking at the disappearing figure of the monk and thought to himself....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
(Hmm... It would be great if I could send my brother and Su Qingyu to get the blessings as a couple....if I can do that I'll get one step closer to my goal)
Again Xue Zeyuan started thinking about all of this while smiling excitedly.... Han Lingxiao noticed his excited face....he went closer to him and stood behind....he leaned towards his ears and whispered....
Han Lingxiao(ml)
What are you getting all excited about? Do you also want to pray here, so you can get an ideal husband? Asked while smirking*
Hearing his words Xue Zeyuan's face got all red....he turned towards Han Lingxiao and said.....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Don't you have any other work than irritating me!! *said sulking*
At his words Han Lingxiao Chuckled and said....
Han Lingxiao(ml)
No...anyway tell me do you really want to pray to get an ideal husband? Or you want to get the blessings with me *said teasingly*
Hearing him Xue Zeyuan got annoyed and said....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Just mind your business....stop interfering in other people's lives and I have no intention to get any blessings together with you....
Saying that Xue Zeyuan turned around and went towards the temple....
Han Lingxiao(ml)
*chuckled while looking at his disappearing figure*
Xue Zeyuan went inside the temple and sat right next to the monk....the monk noticed him and said....
Monk
Are you here to pray.....little fellow?*said smiling*
Xue Zeyuan smiled at him and said....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
I'm here to ask you for a favor sir...
Monk
Sure....tell me about your concerns....
Monk
After hesitating for a bit Xue Zeyuan said....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Well is it true.... that...if people pray here then their love lasts long? *asked hesitantly*
The monk smiled at him and said....
Monk
Yes...young fellow.... do you want to pray with your partner for a happy marriage life? *asked smiling*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
No…not for me.... I want my brother and Su Qingyu to have a proper love life....can you help me so I can convince them to pray here....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Oh, my brother is the one in blue robes and Su Qingyu is the one in green robes....
He said those, so the monk doesn't get confused between them....
Monk
And why do you want them to be together *asked calmly*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
I know they will get together in the future, but their love life won't be proper.... I want them to pray, so they can have a proper love life....
Monk
Do they love each other? *asked calmly*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Well...they don't love each other now but soon in the future they will start liking each other.... I know that *said desperately*
The monk smiled at him and said....
Monk
Young fellow.... I understand that you want them to be together, and you wish a happy love life for them...but if they are not in love with each other than the prayer won't be able to do anything....if in the future they really fall in love with each other....than you can bring them here to pray.... I can tell you surely that it'll be more effective.....for now if you want to pray then go ahead and pray for yourself....let them take care of themselves....
Saying that the monk again smiled at him and went to do his regular prayers....
Xue Zeyuan got out of the temple with a sad face....he saw his brother coming towards him....he fixed his expression and greeted his brother....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Brother *said smiling*
Xue Zhaoyan
Are you done with your prayers? *said smiling*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Yes...*said smiling a little*
Xue Zhaoyan
Then let's go.... it's time to go back....
Xue Zeyuan smiled at him, and they all went out of the temple to go back.....
It was almost late at night when they got back to the main city....after that they had dinner and went to their respective rooms to rest.....
The week of the festival went by like this....they all enjoyed the festival....and had so much fun....soon the festival ended, and it was time to go back to their own place....
They all gathered in front of the carriages on which they will make their journey to their home.....they were getting ready for their departure when Su Qingyu said....
Su Qingyu
I hope we will meet again *said smiling*
Xue Zhaoyan
Sure...but this time you have to come to our city to meet us *said smiling*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Yes brother is right you have to come to our place Mr.Su *said smiling brightly*
Hearing this Su Qingyu chuckled and said....
Su Qingyu
Sure I'll go...but only if you call me brother.... Zeyuan
Xue Zeyuan chuckled and said....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Okay.... brother Su....now promise me you'll come....
Su Qingyu
I'll surely go there *said smiling*
After saying that Su Qingyu turned towards Xue Zhaoyan to tell him bye....
Su Qingyu
Have a safe journey Xue Zhaoyan....hope we will meet soon *said smiling sadly*
Xue Zhaoyan
I hope so too *also said smiling sadly*
Xue Zeyuan noticed the atmosphere between them was getting heavier..... so he gave them some space to talk without anyone's presence....
He left them to talk and went inside the carriage and sat down....he was sitting peacefully when someone lifted the curtains of the carriage and startled him....he looked at that person and said with a done face....
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
It's you again *said with an annoyed expression*
Han Lingxiao(ml)
Yes... it's me again *said grinning*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
What are you doing here? don't you want to go home?
Han Lingxiao(ml)
I do want to....but I thought I should annoy you for the last time before departing *said smiling*
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
Whatever *said while rolling his eyes*
Seeing his expression Han Lingxiao Chuckled and said....
Han Lingxiao(ml)
Anyway....have a safe journey to home *said smiling*
Saying that he took Xue Zeyuan's hand and handed him something which was wrapped in paper..... Zeyuan got confused and was about to say something when he noticed Han Lingxiao went away from there and sat inside his carriage....
Xue Zeyuan confusedly looked towards the thing which was wrapped in paper....he started unwrapping the paper....
After unwrapping the paper Zeyuan saw what was in it and his eyes widened....
He saw the same bracelet which he wanted to buy when they went on a city tour....
He looked at the bracelet then looked towards the carriage which was Han Lingxiao riding.......
When he looked towards him, he saw Lingxiao was already looking at him while smiling....
Xue Zeyuan's face got all red by the gaze on Han Lingxiao's eyes and his heart started beating faster......
He flinched when his brother finally came inside the carriage....his brother looked at him being all confused and asked....
Xue Zhaoyan
What happened? What got you so scared?
Xue Zeyuan(mc)
N-nothing *said while stuttering*
Xue Zhaoyan
Okay then....Bai Mochen let's go....
Bai Mochen tugged at the reign of the horse....with that the carriage started moving.... and Xue Zeyuan looked outside the window to calm down his beating heart..... slowly they started leaving the city gates....
