Chapter 20 - 20 - Snow Can Only Pamper His Lover. (1/2)

”Here try this, I'm sure you will like it.”

A large and slender hand carrying a bowl with a crystal clear color soup with tiny bite of meats, along with green onions and a beautiful white lotus petals was scatter around the top of the soup was place softly on the table before Snow that was currently sitting in a very comfortable chair.

The two of them are currently staying in a Dining Hall together in Snow Moon Palace.

”Here, I didn't also forget to cook one of your favorite dish.”

A voice gently said before another dishes was added again causing Snow amber eyes to light up when he saw the sweet potatoes along with its green leaves was place before him.

Li Chen dark ink eyes stare at the delicate and youthful Regent King before him, eyes unable to move away before raising his hand and gently touching the top of his head.

Snow look up and letting Li Chen finish his actions before immediately speaking when the hand was remove from his head.

”Though this King doesn't dislike it, but this King has to remind you that this King is far more older than you are.”

So, don't treat him like a child!

Li Chen handsome face just showed a smile, dark eyes filled with gentleness and spoiled look toward the currently dignified Regent King who was making a point about his age, but the flush on his cheeks was causing Li Chen to just find him far more charming and adorable than ever.

”Yes, Yes. Little Xen is older than I am, please forgive this young man action just now.”

Snow just stared at the young man, seeing the spoiled look on his eyes, before deciding to just forget it, since this was his man anyway, he cant do anything about it.

There was nothing wrong in spoiling his man, specially when he has been working hard lately.

”Come, accompany this King to eat dinner.”

After Snow finish speaking Li Chen immediately sat next to him with a smile on his face causing Snow to take a glance at him before returning his attention toward the foods before him, not reminding the young man that he could have just sat facing him.

Besides, Snow finally have the appetite to eat food after many days of leaving Li Chen sides and has started eating his own food, amber eyes lighting up a bit after tasting the delicious food on his mouth, being taken care of is nice.

His lover being a great cook is also the best!

”Does it taste good?”

Amber eyes blink, before reaching out a second later and placing foods to Li Chen own bowl and lowering his head as he continue eating but not before answering, ”It's good.”

Li Chen chuckle, dark ink eyes filled with pampering look at the currently eating Xen with his head lower down before putting the foods that Xen has given into his own mouth.

The candle light swayed, as the only two figure inside the dining hall, talk with each other and sometimes placing foods on their opposite bowl of rice, the scenery look extremely pleasant as the warmth atmosphere making the two people getting closer than ever.

Amber and Dark ink eyes locking from time to time, as they sat closer together.

”Your Highness the Queen Mother is asking an audience and wanted to meet you.”

The warmth atmosphere immediately disappearing as an eunuch sound suddenly announce causing Snow to frown and losing his appetite as he lowered down the utensil on his hand on the table while Li Chen who has been sitting next to him, stood up and placing a hot of cup tea before Snow in order to calm his emotion down when he felt the negative atmosphere on the delicate body.

Dark ink eyes flashing lightly, before his head lowered down to cover the emotion brimming on his eyes not wanting to scared his little Xen.

Snow who was thinking something, didn't caught a glimpse of the slightly unusual reaction before him as he thought about how he already had given ordered that no one can bother the two of them unless it was the Young Emperor that was coming, then again when he remember the familiar voice and the identity of the person who was guarding the door outside at the moment, a thought suddenly flash his mind.

”Hm... tell the Queen Mother that This King will meet her in Moon Palace Hall in a few minutes.”

Snow stood up and walked out the room, Li Chen quietly following behind as Snow immediately went to meet his Queen mother but not before cold amber eyes glance at the eunuch that has bowed his head and immediately left soon after receiving his order, Snow couldn't help but think that it should be the right time to also get rid of this ungrateful and unloyal person.

Wei Lei Shan, the Queen Mother sat still, paying no attention at the steaming cup of hot tea before her as she wait for her child to arrive while Green and along with the other servants stand beside her.

After a few minutes later, the door in the hall open up and the majestic Regent King wearing an unusual silky fresh green royal robes appeared, the usually slightly pale face, currently has healthy ruby color on it while the usually indifferent amber eyes is currently seemed much softer than before and his entire body radiating a bit of warmth, Wei Lei Shan eyes flashed before quickly turning her attention to the other person that came along with her child because not anyone can just walk together with the Regent King, specially when that person was walking along side him!

Unless that person is extraordinary or has a far more important place in her child heart, no one has been able to stand by Rong Xen side aside from the current Young Emperor, even that child Wang Lou was unable to.

So the Queen Mother stare at the unfamiliar person and saw that the age of the man was young, much younger than the Regent King, probably a 17-19 years old man, slender and tall with a handsome face along with that dark ink eyes filled with nothing but gentleness as he stare at the Regent King before him from time to time, obviously unafraid to show that he has a certain deep emotion toward the Regent King.

Obviously a person who has great affection toward her child, that same expression she has seen it twice before, from the late Emperor and Wang Lau and from the look of it, even she couldn't believe, are far more heavier than what she has received in the past.

”Child, this is?” Beautiful face smiled gently as she asked the other person before them after the two greeted her and has sat down, her eyes staring a bit more longer than she should have when the young man sat next to the Regent King in a rather familiar way like he has done it many times before.

This is not good, was the only thought that grace the Queen Mother mind after seeing all of it.

Snow amber eyes glance at the young handsome man, staying silent for a few seconds before opening his lip as he utter a rather short but meaningful words causing the Queen Mother to widened her eyes in shock, along with the servants around them.

”Future son-in law.”

Li Chen eyes flashed in delight, this words is basically an acceptance toward what they has spoken before, he never would have thought that he will soon get his answer and in this kind of situation but never mind that, as long as he get what he want, nothing matter much.

”But... How about Wang Lou?” Queen Mother cannot bear to asked because she knew that Rong Xen really has affection toward that child, there was no way that he would have lost his affection so quickly and fell to someone else, specially to someone else that he just met a few days ago.

The words spoken by the Queen Mother cause the delight that Li Chen felt cool down, his mood suddenly turning dark, and this time, he didn't hide his expression at all.

Snow felt the emotional change of the person besides him and couldn't help but sigh, well Rong Xen really did feel affection on Wang Lou, but how can this mother of his just spoke about it? Specially when the person who he just introduce as her future son in law was right before them.

She was obviously looking for trouble, probably wanting to cause misunderstanding between them, enough to cause a rift between the two of them at that.

Its too bad, she doesn't know how the two of them are both have that possessive and almost obsessive side with the person they thoughts as theirs.

”What about that person? Queen Mother, it seemed that you have forgotten, this King has long cancelled our engagement years ago and that person has already married a main wife and have his own child too. There is no way that This King will go and become another man side wife. This King is not that desperate and have great affection to that person that this King has to go and break a happy family. Besides the reputation of the Imperial family will lose it face if this King has to do all of those.”

Before Snow reach out at the obviously more less bad mood young man besides him, his small hand gently taking hold of his much warm larger hand.

”That person obviously doesn't love this King as much as this King thought so, since he married someone else after just a while of breaking the engagement, don't you think so Queen Mother?”

Amber eyes getting warmer and softer as he stare at the person he is holding the hand of, ”Besides No other person beside this man has cause this King heart to beat faster than ever, making this King heart to be move, obviously this King is in love for the first time and no one will be able to sway this King heart anymore.”

Yes, Snow accepted that this person will be his lover, since he decided already, why should he make everything more complicated? Even though he will live more longer in this world, but their times will always be short, he has to treasure every single time that goes by since there will be no more Li Chen in his next life.

Rong Xen and Li Chen will only have this love in this World because even if there was a slight chance that he will meet Li Chen in another world, but that person will no longer be the same anymore, they might be the same soul but it was not the Li Chen that he met as Rong Xen.

It might sound impossible at the moment but hey, Snow will continue to travel for as long as he can, there is no impossible in this world so he might meet a person not only once.

There is also those Karma that he will be connecting with in every person that he will meet, no one could never tell that because of those connection, there will be a day that he will meet them again.

Its so exciting when he thoughts about it.

So in every world, Snow will not forget them for as long as he live, and as amber eyes stare with dark ink eyes, Snow will always treasure the people that will become his lover in every world.

No matter who they are, the same or not, that feelings has always been true.

Turning his head and attention to the Queen Mother who has just visited, there was this feeling in his guts that telling him that something will happen today, blinking his eyes when he remember what Flake has told him from the spying he has been told to do, he couldn't help but lower his eyes a little before glancing briefly at the person standing next to the Queen Mother, his lip couldn't help but curve up lightly.

”Child, I heard about what happened during the celebration in the Jun Family. You might have been tired right? Mother has made your favorite snacks after knowing that you are finally back in the Palace. Here how about you try it? You too young man, I'm sure you will like it, this is one of this child favorite.”

Green moved as she walked beside their table, bending down slowly and placing the tray that she has been carrying on the table, lifting the cover over it, a chrysanthemum cake immediately appeared their very eyes, looking beautiful and delicious at the same time.

This people, shouldn't be thinking that the same method they always use will always work right? Frowning, shouldn't they be thinking about different method?

With doubt, Snow amber eyes dimming down, as he stare at the snacks for a second before leaning down as a small hand try to reach out over but before he could so much as move, he suddenly found himself being lift up high in someone arms and quickly move away a distance from the other people in the room.

Confuse amber eyes stare at the suddenly cold handsome face of his lover before a thought flash his mind as amber eyes saw the man cast a transparent layer of defense around his body.

”You court death.” the usually gentle voice suddenly turned cold as the soft dark ink eyes turned dangerous as he turned his eyes at the people before them.

Li Chen has always been vigilant the whole time, Little Xen safety has always been his first priority among all else, the protection he has toward him are already brimming in paranoia.

As soon as he receive the warning of Black on his mind, Li Chen already move away and has cast another defense on Xen body.

Li Chen won't allow to miss anything and cause an irreplaceable damage toward Xen, specially when he is almost fully able to cure his Cold Poison on his body.

He has long known, that most in the Royal Family that their blood tie doesn't really matter much but Li Chen saw the closeness between the Young Emperor and his little Xen and thought that this Imperial Family should have no problem, it was his fault for not checking it out clearer.

Who would have known that the Queen Mother herself was also the cause of it? Li Chen has thought of the highest possibility of someone who might have given the Cold Poison to his little Xen lurking near them but the Queen never become as the main list of suspects, specially when she has been specially known as someone that the Late Emperor has treated nicely, love and treasure the most that there were only one person in the Harem.

Having only one person in the harem, for an Emperor was already miracle enough.

”How dare you speak that way to the Queen Mother!”

Green shout but the hand she tried to keep hidden was shaking a bit, because she just started a little bit but the Young Jun has already move away blocking about what she was about to do. This time, she was already determined, even at the cost of receiving a severe injury, she decided to make the Regent King heart stop once and for all.

As she stare at the young man, her eyes flash wariness since this person really is the one who was able to mostly cure the Cold Poison that she has made and cast!

An ominous premonition come to her mind as she stare at the cold dark eyes of the young man, feeling the dangerous atmosphere around him, her instinct screaming danger nonstop as a chill run down her spine.
