69 You’re a Source of Inspiration (2/2)

Yun Bei Fen had looked over and frowned. He didn't know him yet but he had heard of him. That person was the disciple of one of the former Elders. The reason people steered clear of him was probably because of his master, too, because that Elder had actually dared to betray the sect.

It's not right. If a disciple betrayed the sect, the master may be held accountable. After all, he didn't teach his disciple the right way. But if the master leaves what could the disciple have done? He doesn't deserve to be ostracized like this.

He turned back to the junior martial brothers and sisters and smiled. ”Why don't you go and ask Senior Martial Brother Mei? I'm sure he can tell you more about this than me.”

The disciples stopped their questions at once and peeked at Mei Chao Bing. The cultivator snorted and left, his robe billowing behind him.

Yun Bei Fen watched him leave with a worried gaze. Why had Mei Chao Bing left? Had he said something wrong? ”Please, excuse me.” Yun Bei Fen nodded at his juniors and followed him outside. ”Senior Martial Brother Mei, please wait!” He hastened his steps until he reached him. ”Did I say something wrong just now?”

Mei Chao Bing stopped walking and turned around. His narrow eyes seemed to become slits while the corners of his mouth hooked up. ”No, why would you have said anything wrong?”

Yun Bei Fen examined his face. Even though he smiled, it didn't seem as if he was happy. ”Then … why did you leave?”

Mei Chao Bing stepped closer and looked down on him. He was more than one head taller and his shoulders were broad enough to let Yun Bei Fen feel a little overwhelmed. He had to force himself to calm down or else he might have taken a step back.

Mei Chao Bing leaned forward until his breath tickled Yun Bei Fen's face. ”Maybe I couldn't take having to hear your voice any longer.” He turned to the side and stalked off, his shoulder brushing against Yun Bei Fen's.]

Su Yan took his hands from the keyboard and hurried over to the living room. He smiled when he saw Nie Chang sitting well-behaved on the couch. He ran over, jumped onto his lap and kissed him.

Nie Chang lifted his brows but even though he had no idea why he deserved this kiss, he hugged Su Yan back and reciprocated. The sound of their lips meeting and their tongues entwining echoed in the room until Su Yan breathlessly leaned back.

”You're such a good boyfriend!” he choked out and smiled.

Nie Chang grinned. ”So you think I'm good at kissing?”

”That, too.” Su Yan leaned over again and gave him a short peck before getting up and hurrying back to the kitchen. ”But foremost you're a source of inspiration.”

Nie Chang watched his boyfriend disappear with a smile. ”I guess that's not so bad if your other half is an artist? Ah, let's hope he'll be done with that story soon. I honestly don't want to wait until we start with the dating.”
