CHAPTER 3

*Secret got out

'A few days ago after Jin Guangyao was killed and the whole 'revenge plot' done by me was revealed, those 'rumors' got out... But is it real? No. Do I have evidence? Maybe...' Nie Huaisang thought

"Do you have any leads on who created the rumors?" Lan Xichen asked Nie Huaisang who is looking quite seriously at a painting while fanning his face.

"Sadly... No" He answered as he folded his fan, tapping the object on his palm

"Why won't we help you investigate?" Wei Ying offered

"No need besides you're pregnant, you need to take care of yourself more" Nie Huaisang objected

Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian became a couple when they are only 15 and they had a son named Lan Yuan courtesy name Lan Sizhui a few years later, unfortunately Wei Ying died because she lost control when they were fighting with some puppets which led to her self-destruction leaving her four year old son and her mourning husband alone although nobody knows why she lost control suddenly all of them suspected it has something to do with Jin Guangyao... Unfortunately they never got the answer, for Jin Guangyao got killed even before he answered the question.

"How do you plan on solving it?" Lan Wangji asked

"Just focus on your wife Hanguang-jun, let me handle this after all this doesn't concern any of you" Nie Huaisang dodged the question

"Huaisang..." Lan Xichen wanted to say something but decided to shut his mouth.

"I don't want anyone to get involved in this mess so please stay out of it" Huaisang faced them as he placed his blade on the table.

"I'm not comfortable with this!" Wei Wuxian pouted

"Oh by the way Lan Wangji, Wei Wuxian is not allowed to drink wine until the day she will give birth" Nie Huaisang changed the topic which in turn made Wei Ying hysterical swearing she'll never give birth to children ever again...

"Why aren't you doing those paperworks?" Jiang Cheng decided to butt in while the rest are busy calming Wei Wuxian down after all she is the Yiling Matriarch...

"They are all asking for marriage... That's why" Nie Huaisang sighed

Jiang Cheng looked at the paperworks and then gazed back at Nie Huaisang who unfolded his fan again...

"A-Xian! A-Cheng! What's happening?" Jiang Yanli along with her husband Jin Zixuan and their son Jin Ling, courtesy name Jin Rulan, went inside uninvited...

"Shijie (A-jie)!" Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng said in unison as they ran towards their shijie like two lost puppies who finally found their owner.

"Lady Jiang or should I call you Madame Jin?... Sect Leader Jin, Childe Jin" Nie Huaisang greeted the worried woman before giving his salutations to the father and son pair.

"You decide" Jiang Yanli said while smiling gently.

"Madame Jin it is" Nie Huaisang smiled back.

"Right, what happened just now the others are having doubts... You have to be careful" Sect Leader Jin (Zixuan) reminded Huaisang causing the latter to sigh and return to his desk.

His face may be calm but it is quite noticeable that something was off.

"You have already found clues, haven't you?" Jiang Cheng clenched his fist

Nie Huaisang looked at him for a while and smiled as he got up from his desk. He went towards the flock of people eagerly waiting for answers.

"Yes I already found clues. It is not the time to tell you. I'll make it up to you next time" Nie Huaisang saluted them and went out of the study to go to his chamber.

"He knew who it was and yet he did not tell us! What is the meaning of this?!" Wei Wuxian grunted

"It means he doesn't want to trouble us Wei Ying" Lan Zhan hugged his wife from behind. The two began to cuddle in front of the people in the room...

Lan Xichen being the supportive brother/brother-in-law he is, exited the room after giving his salutations... The Jin family also went away not wanting to disturb the lovely couple.

Jiang Cheng on the other hand scoffed...

"Get a room! You two!" he grumbled while rolling his eyes out

The two however ignored him and continued to cuddle so he has no choice but to walk out of the room while stomping his feet on the ground muttering some curses. Unbeknownst to him his feet brought him to Nie Huaisang's chamber...

He was going to knock on the door when he heard crashing and yelling inside the chamber. Without further ado he kicked the door open.

"Huaisang are yo-"

He immediately went back outside after hearing Nie Huaisang's ear piercing scream. Breathing heavily, Jiang Cheng fanned his over-riped-tomato-red face using his hands.

'He's f*cking *****!!!' Jiang Cheng thought as he placed his head on the door...

After finishing wearing his clothes Huaisang opened the door and pulled Jiang Cheng inside his chambers. After making sure the door is locked he faced the flabbergasted handsome tomato tsundere man in purple robes.

"What brings you here Jiang-xiong?" Nie Huaisang smiled brightly

Jiang Cheng doesn't know what to answer so he just kept his head low. Unfortunately for him the image of Nie Huaisang's ***** body didn't leave his mind especially that mark... Mark?

Jiang Cheng raised his head and started removing Nie Huaisang's upper clothes.

"Uhh... Ahhh... Jiang-xiong WHAT ARE YOU DOING??!!" Nie Huaisang panicked. Struggling to get free from the taller man who is undressing him. He squirmed and hit the other's chest which made him put himself into a much more uncomfortable position. Jiang Cheng grabbed Nie Huaisang's wrists and pinned them above the smaller's head.

Blushing uncontrollably Nie Huaisang hung his head low as Jiang Cheng lightly touched his chest.

"Mmmh..." He moaned slightly and closed his eyes out of embarressment

"Why do you have this rose mark?" Jiang Cheng softly asked

"Uhh... I don't know... Ahhh... I really don't know" Nie Huaisang answered in an almost panicked shriek

Jiang Cheng looked at the struggling creature below him as he leaned down.

"Really?" Jiang Cheng placed his other hand beside the smaller's head

"Don't you know it already Jiang-xiong?" Nie Huaisang sighed still hanging his head low

Jiang Cheng raised the other's chin so that the smaller can look at him in the eye.

"So you are also like Wei Ying?" The taller said in a soothing voice which is very very new to hear from the bad tempered Sect Leader.

"Yes..." Nie Huaisang looked at Jiang Cheng's hypnotizing dark brown orbs...

How are you still single?

"Because I have a bad temper" Jiang Cheng loosened his grip on Nie Huaisang's wrists

Nie Huaisang held his mouth.

"Did I say it out loud?" Nie Huaisang asked

Jiang Cheng nodded and fixed the little guy's clothes. After apologizing for his unproper behavior. Jiang Cheng asked Nie Huaisang a very serious question.

"Why did you hide it? And why are you yelling inside your chamber without wearing anything???!!!"
