Yuan Tianwen looked liked he was about to lose his temper. Lin Xuanzhi casted a glance at Duan Yuyang and didn’t know what to say. This rascal loses his composure way too easily; the more he acts out like this, the more Yuan Tianwen would dislike him.
“Since Yuan young peak master had personally come over to make this request, what harm is there to share some with them?” Lin Xuanzhi sliced off a piece of venison, pierced it with the tip of a knife and passed it to Yuan Tianwen.
“Hold up! Who allowed you to give it to him?” Duan Yuyang jumped up, then glared at Yuan Tianwen and demanded, “Hand over a thousand gold!”
Yuan Tianwen may be rich, but he’s not a fool, and much less someone who would be deceived into paying more than he should be. He looked at Duan Yuyang coldly and said, “Duan Yuyang, your willfulness should have a limit.”

“Yes, I’m wilful, I’m fucking more wilful than anyone else!” Duan Yuyang pointed at the tip of his own nose and was so angry his chest couldn’t stop heaving, then said, “If you can’t stand the sight of me, then hurry and get lost! Don’t follow behind our asses.”
Yuan Tianwen stabbed the knife into the deer leg, then said with his eyes filled with fury, “Since that’s the case, then let’s go our separate ways.”
“We were originally going our separate ways anyway, who the fuck wants to travel with you!” Duan Yuyang roared.
The meat in Yan Tianhen’s mouth almost fell out. Why did they start quarrelling? Wasn’t it just a piece of meat?
Yuan Tianwen turned around and left with vigorous strides. He whistled and summoned his penta-coloured crane, then pulled the Han Yuran who had been spectating the show and immediately got on his penta-coloured crane and left.
“He…he left just like that?” Yan Tianhen still couldn’t make sense of what had just happened.
Duan Yuyang suddenly squatted down and buried his face in his arms, then started to choke out subtle sobs.

Yan Tianhen was startled and couldn’t be bothered with eating his meat anymore. He immediately ran over and squatted down too, then said, “Erm, Yuyang Ge, you’re the one who chased him away, so why are you crying??”
Duan Yuyang raised his head, glared at Yan Tianhen then said loudly, “You little rascal, don’t you know how to comfort people?”
Yan Tianhen felt a bit wronged. He rubbed his nose and said, “But isn’t it just a piece of venison? And yet you demanded a thousand gold from him, that’s really exorbitant?”
“What the hell do you know!” Duan Yuyang said.
Yan Tianhen, “…….”
Lin Xuanzhi stood at one side, slowly tore off a piece of venison, then stuffed it into his mouth and began to chew on it.
Duan Yuyang got up, saw this scene and immediately flew into a rage, “Don’t you have any compassion at all?!”
Lin Xuanzhi lightly said, “You brought it upon yourself, don’t tell me you want to put the blame on me for that?”
Duan Yuyang wanted to wail out loud, yet he also felt that he had indeed brought it upon himself.

Yan Tianhen blinked and asked, “Why are you always so mean to Yuan young peak master? Did he offend you last time?”
Duan Yuyang rolled his eyes at Yan Tianhen, wiped away his tears, then sat down next to their fire with a listless expression on his face. He silently pulled over the other unseasoned deer leg and stuck a branch through it, then started roasting it.
Yan Tianhen couldn’t make head or tail of Duan Yuyang’s reactions, so he casted a puzzled look at Lin Xuanzhi.
Lin Xuanzhi lightly said, “There’s a certain type of person in this world: the more this kind of person likes someone, the more he would cause trouble for the one he likes and pick on their faults to attract their attention. Yet they don’t realise that this is the most foolish method of all that would only backfire on themselves. Once the person they like ends up liking someone else, their love would end up turning into hatred.”
Yan Tianhen looked at the Duan Yuyang who was immersed in his own world, then suddenly had an epiphany. He said, “I understand now. Yuyang Ge, I didn’t expect you to be such a person.”

Duan Yuyang flared up, “What’s wrong with me? Who told you that I like him?!”
Yan Tianhen said, “If you don’t like him, then why would you always try to cause trouble for him? In the past, I really thought that you had proposed an annulment of Dage’s engagement for my Dage’s sake, but I didn’t expect that you did so because you had other ideas about him!”
Duan Yuyang said with a puzzled look, “Who are you talking about?”
“Han Yuran!” Yan Tianhen said, “It must have been because you saw that after Han Yuran and Dage’s engagement was annulled, he didn’t jump into your embrace and went to follow Yuan young peak master instead, so your love for Han Yuran turned into hatred. And as for his new lover Yuan young peak master, you began to hate him so much you couldn’t even stand the sight of him!”
Duan Yuyang, “….”
Right now, he only wanted to use a block of tofu to smash himself to death!
Lin Xuanzhi placed his fist on his lips, then softly chuckled.

He didn’t expect that such a distorted explanation could be made, and it even sounded quite convincing!
Duan Yuyang wanted to flare up, yet he couldn’t release his anger after reining it in for half a day.
Whatever, the ignorant can’t be blamed, so it’s not like he can blame Yan Tianhen. Also, for fear of losing his own face, it’s not like he could grab Yan Tianhen’s lapel and roar at him “the one Laozi1 likes is obviously Yuan Tianwen, that what’s-his-name is a fucking nobody!”
Duan Yuyang gloomily continued to roast his meat.
Lin Xuanzhi didn’t bother with him either, and after Yan Tianhen ate his fill, he pulled Yan Tianhen over to sit with him underneath a huge tree.
Yan Tianhen yawned.
Lin Xuanzhi sat cross-legged, then brought Yan Tianhen into his embrace and said, “We’ll have to settle for this resting spot for now. After we cross Flying Luan peak tomorrow, there’ll be an inn where we could stay in at the foot of the mountain.”

Yan Tianhen nodded, then leaned into Lin Xuanzhi’s arms and looked at him, “Dage, you’re not going to sleep?”
