Never Marry a Man With Two Tintins-Chapter 65
Chapter 65
Because he was not mentally prepared at all, Cheng Nuo didn’t know how to react for a while, and could only mechanically follow those two people over there.
He knew Bai Rui would definitely come back because of him, but he didn’t expect Bai Rui’s speed to be so fast…
As if he knew that someone had arrived, Bai Rui slowly turned around.
Cheng Nuo opened his eyes and observed carefully to make sure Bai Rui didn’t look like he was injured. He was relieved, but his hands hidden in his sleeves were still shaking badly. When they separated last time, he thought they might never meet again in the future…
Shame, guilt and other complex emotions spread in his heart. He did not know how to face Bai Rui at all…
When their eyes met, Cheng Nuo felt his heart suffocate and his frozen pale lips opened and closed a few times with difficulty, but he could not utter a word.
Bai Rui’s gaze was cold and detached, and did not linger on his face in the slightest, nor did he even take another look at him. Cheng Nuo’s heart twitched; Bai Rui didn’t resent him in his heart, did he?
As if he didn’t know him, Bai Rui slowly walked towards the group of people. His voice seemed to melt into this world of ice and snow. Without half the temperature*, he said to Yu Yue, “Where’s big brother?”
(* TN: I think this means he said it very coldly? lol)
Yu Yue and Su Rong both looked excited, suddenly fell to the ground and said, “Eldest young master is waiting in Yong’an Pavilion. The slave servants welcome the young Lord back to the city!”
As soon as the two of them spoke, the guards standing not far away also knelt on the ground, shouting in unison, “Welcome the young Lord back to the city!”
In front of the kneeling crowd, only Cheng Nuo and Bai Rui were standing, Cheng Nuo looked around nervously, not knowing how he should react.
Bai Rui did not pay attention to the group of people or to Cheng Nuo, but walked forward with unhurried steps, without even turning back.
Cheng Nuo watched in a daze as a few strands of silvery white hair swept past in front of him and smiled mockingly. It seemed that when facing Bai Rui, he was prone to sadness and grief. Since Bai Rui had changed so much, he must have his reasons… All he could do was cooperate with Bai Rui.
He restrained his emotions and tried to keep his face as usual.
Kneeling on the ground, Yu Yue said, “Young Lord, the eldest young master invites the distinguished guest to go over with the young Lord.”
Bai Rui’s feet stopped, and he said lightly, “If that’s the case, then let’s go together.”
The guards hurriedly led several snow beasts over. Bai Rui jumped up and rode in front with a raise of the reins, while Cheng Nuo, Yu Yue and the others lagged behind.
It was quiet all the way. There was no wind, and the snowflakes fell quietly. Cheng Nuo tried to make himself look ahead, but as always, his eyes still uncontrollably fell on Bai Rui. Bai Rui was wearing a single coat and his straight back was thin. He also looked distressed, but he couldn’t do anything about it.
After walking for a long time before reaching that Yong’an Court, Bai Rui jumped down and went straight in by himself. Yu Yue and the others guarded the door and didn’t go in. Cheng Nuo hesitated and kept a distance with Bai Rui.
Yong’an Pavilion was quite large. There were many rare plants of the cold lands arranged in the courtyard, which was very beautiful. It was a long walk along the corridor before finally seeing a white-clothed Bai Mu standing under a pavilion.
Bai Rui stood quietly and said, “Big brother.”
Bai Mu’s sharp eyes quickly swept over Bai Rui as well as Cheng Nuo behind him, still expressionless.
Cheng Nuo thought, it seemed that the relationship between Bai Rui and Bai Mu was better than that of Bai Zhi… But, face paralysis against upper face paralysis, what will be the result?
The surrounding air pressure was very low, and Cheng Nuo held his breath carefully.
After a long time, Bai Rui only said: “What does young Lord mean? I don’t remember when I got this title.”
Bai Mu said, “You are the heir of the Bai family, it’s destiny.”
There was another moment of silence, and Bai Rui said, “In that case, send the unrelated people away.”
Cheng Nuo had been straining his ears and carefully listening while analyzing. When he saw Bai Mu’s cold, shiver-inducing gaze fall on him, he realized that Bai Rui was referring to him. Somehow, although Bai Rui acted calmly, he could feel that Bai Rui was nervous.
Bai Mu’s face was still expressionless. Cheng Nuo only felt a blur before his eyes; Bai Rui had landed in front of him, blocking Bai Mu’s hand.
“This person has nothing to do with me,” Bai Rui’s voice was also frighteningly cold. “It’s just that I owe him a favor.”
Bai Mu said softly, “Is that so? You left Snow City without permission for several years, let me see the result of your cultivation outside.”
Bai Rui flew and jumped afar, and Bai Mu followed like a shadow.
Cheng Nuo breathed heavily, cold sweat soaking his back. The moment Bai Mu shot out his hand, he felt as if his heart was oppressed and couldn’t beat.
He quickly looked into the distance, the two brothers were already fighting together in the snow.
Cheng Nuo quickly transferred elemental energy to his eyes, looking at the two black and white figures tangled together, but their speed was too fast for him to keep up.
Both had water abilities. Bai Mu waved, and a huge ice dragon appeared above his head. He opened his mouth and made a whistling sound, and it rushed towards Bai Rui. Bai Rui quickly used his hands to gather the surrounding water elements and also made one.
Two ice dragons collided together in the air, immediately splitting into pieces, and countless ice crystals fell down. Although Cheng Nuo stood far away, his cheek was still scratched and bled lightly. He casually wiped it with his hand and continued to concentrate on the battle.
When the collision occurred, Bai Mu did not move at all, but Bai Rui took two steps back.
Bai Mu said lightly: “You did not use your full strength,”
Bai Rui calmly replied, “I am no match for big brother.”
The two exchanged blows again and fought until the evening before they stopped. The garden which was originally decorated in vegetation was almost in ruins. Cheng Nuo was forced to step back. Snowflakes had fallen on his shoulders, forming a thick layer.
Bai Mu clearly did not show Bai Rui any mercy, Bai Rui’s right hand seemed to have been broken, the corners of his mouth were bloody and on his back there were several long bloody scratches cut by the sharp cold, but his face was always calm, seemingly in no pain.
Cheng Nuo tightly bit his lower lip and his whole body was trembling. Fuck! What kind of brother was this? This was the treatment of the young Lord, holy shit!
“Not bad.” Bai Mu slowly withdrew his hand. He glanced at Cheng Nuo’s nervous expression with the corner of his eye and said, “He is very nervous about you – he said you are friends?”
Bai Rui looked straight at him and said, “Not really, just acquaintances.”
Bai Mu turned a deaf ear and said, “Tomorrow morning, take this little thing to see father.”
As he said, he leaped forward, landed in the distance, and disappeared in no time.
Bai Rui body swayed a little and quickly stood firm. Cheng Nuo hurriedly ran forward and said worriedly, “how are you?”
Bai Rui avoided his hand and walked straight ahead.
Cheng Nuo looked at his empty hand in a daze and his eyes were wet. This brave bear child!
He took two or three quick steps to catch up with him, almost yelling, “Stop, you’re badly injured!”
Bai Rui could have easily broken free, but for some reason, his whole body seemed to lose strength. He stared ahead in a daze and his body warmed up; Cheng Nuo had taken off his cloak and covered him from behind.
“Find a place first and I’ll help you treat it.” Cheng Nuo turned to Bai Rui, lowered his head, carefully tied the belt for him, bit his lower lip and said, “we’ll talk about the rest later!”
Although there were many questions in his heart, he didn’t want to ask now.
His hand accidentally touched Bai Rui’s face. His hand was already was cold, but Bai Rui’s cheek was colder, almost as cold as the ice and snow.
He always felt that Bai Rui was strong, but that Liu Guang needed his care, but now he realized that he was no less distressed for Bai Rui than he was for Liu Guang.
Cheng Nuo suddenly had a strong urge to hug Bai Rui tightly and rub Bai Rui’s face with his hand… he forcibly drew back his hand and walked straight ahead, his eyes swelling with pain.
He wanted Bai Rui to be happy and cheerful, but apparently, he hurt Bai Rui more than anyone else.
Listening to the soft footsteps behind, Cheng Nuo knew that Bai Rui was following him. The uncomfortable feeling in his heart finally retreated a little.
Yu Yue and others had obviously been waiting outside. When they saw them coming out, they immediately greeted them and respectfully said, “Please return to the bedchamber, young Lord.”
Cheng Nuo jumped on the snow beast without saying a word and glanced at Bai Rui, who was is still expressionless with no emotions in his eyes.
The crowd departed quickly. Bai Rui’s chambers were not far from here, and they soon arrived.
Yu Yue and the others were about to retreat when Bai Rui coldly said, “Call a healer to treat me. Arrange this guest in another hall.”
Cheng Nuo was stunned. He smiled bitterly in his heart and followed Yu Yue out.
Regardless of whether Bai Rui was being so indifferent to him for a reason or not, this was the right choice.
The rearranged residence was still cold to the bone, but when the window was opened, Bai Rui’s bedchamber could be seen faintly.
Cheng Nuo closed the window distractedly and did not care to cultivate at all.
He lay on the bed and stared blankly at the top of the curtain, worried about Bai Rui’s injuries and Liu Guang. It was easy to stay up until dawn. Yu Yue and Su Rong came in to wait for him to freshen up, and sent dozens of sets of expensive clothes, informing him that he had to go meet the city Lord with the young Lord.
Cheng Nuo handpicked a set and secretly gritted his teeth.
At least three hundred years old, a stallion man with more than twenty wives, and the father of six problem children.
You could guess with your toes that Bai Rui’s father must be a perverted old bastard!
This time it was the magical beast that pulled the carriage. Cheng Nuo jumped on it nonchalantly. Through the translucent curtain of the carriage, he could see Bai Rui riding a snow beast right in front. Bai Rui was wearing pure white clothes. His waist-long silver hair was gently blown, and his back was upright as always.
He watched Bai Rui’s back in a trance and only withdrew his gaze when the carriage stopped.
The place where the city Lord lived was the main hall, which was much more magnificent than the other places. In addition to pure white, the energy stone on the wall took the appearance of other colors as well. Cheng Nuo wanted to guess the character of that old pervert through the style of the arrangement here, but could not come to a conclusion at all.
Bai Rui kept walking in front of him without hurry or delay. He didn’t turn around, so he (Cheng Nuo) couldn’t see how the injury was. The guard quickly came up to lead the way, but he took them to the bedroom in the back hall.
All the attendants in the front hall withdrew. Cheng Nuo quickly glanced at the man leaning on the soft couch and was stunned.
Although he had some mental preparation, he was still shocked, because the old pervert looked really too young! Bai Jintian looked only to be twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, just a little older than Bai Mu. Like this, it seemed that Bai Rui’s looks were still more like his father’s, right…
Bai Jintian didn’t have face paralysis; there was a faint smile on his face. Cheng Nuo was frightened when he saw it. Old fox!
