Looking at the worried man beside him, Jiang Xu sighed helplessly. “You, when you’re bad, you’re really really despicable. It’s a shame that I thought you were a good person before.”
Liu Mufeng’s brows furrowed even tighter, listening to his beloved’s complaining tone. “I am sorry.”
“Okay, stop apologizing anymore. I don’t blame you. In fact, it’s not really that bad. If I didn’t tell Brother Zhantian that I liked him once, I would always feel a little bit of regret in my heart. But, now that I have said it, I feel my whole person is more relaxed. It’s like an invisible shackle on my body was suddenly opened, and the whole person is very comfortable.” Jiang Xu didn’t know how to describe this feeling. He just felt that the whole person was very relaxed and comfortable, and he had never felt at ease like this before. It was like he was finally feeling free.
Hearing this, Liu Mufeng was stunned. Had the shackles been opened? What Jiang Xu said should be the setting of the original book. In fact, part of why Jiang Xu liked the male protagonist may be because the male protagonist was really good to Jiang Xu when he was young. However, a large part of the reason was the traction of the male lead. So, did this feeling of opening the shackles mean breaking free from the original shackles?
“XiaoXu, are you sad now?” Looking at his beloved, Liu Mufeng asked softly.
Hearing the man ask, Jiang Xu blinked. Then he shook his head. “I’m fine. Surprisingly, it’s not as sad as I had imagined.”
“Let’s go home. I’ll make you your favorite hibiscus cake and sesame cake in the evening, didn’t you say you like sweets?” Looking at the person beside him, Liu Mufeng said softly.
Hearing this, Jiang Xu nodded. “En.”
After putting out the fire, Liu Mufeng left the mountain with Jiang Xu.
On the way home, Jiang Xu unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth when he saw the figure who had been with him all the time. Then, he quietly held Liu Mufeng’s hand.
Looking at the hand that was being held, Liu Mufeng was stunned, then stopped. He looked at the person beside him in a daze. “What’s wrong?”
“Mufeng, you have also promised me something before.” Jiang Xu slowly said.
“Hmmn?” Liu Mufeng frowned, thinking what Jiang Xu meant.
“When will we get married?” Jiang Xu asked in a low voice, blushing.
Hearing this, Liu Mufeng froze in place.‘Marriage? Jiang Xu wants to marry him? This.. is this true? Is this real?’

Thinking that he would be rejected by Mufeng, he would never be able to be with the other man again, and he would never be able to eat Mufeng’s dishes again. No one would secretly help him cover him with the quilt, and no one would give all the best to him. No one would pamper him, accommodate him, and genuinely love him. Jiang Xu suddenly felt that his whole world would collapse before his eyes. This kind of feeling made him shudder and terrified just thinking about it.
It wasn’t until this moment that Jiang Xu came to his senses. It turned out that after he was rejected by Brother Zhantian, he didn’t feel so sad but felt very relaxed and relieved. That’s because he actually doesn’t like Brother Zhantian anymore. Therefore, he will not feel heartache, but Mufeng is different. If Mu Feng rejects him, he will be saddened and will be very hurt.
Five years. It’s been five years. He was already used to having this person by his side. He was used to the friendly advice of the man, the occasional nagging, the food he prepares, the things he decides between two people. Getting used to the feeling of being liked by him, cherished by him, and pampered by him. He’s used to him revolving around him every day, and he’s used to having only himself in his heart. He had gotten used to this person being in his life all the time.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Mufeng, I should have promised you early. I shouldn’t have made you wait for so many years. I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Looking at the person who had never answered him, Jiang Xu shed tears guiltily.
“XiaoXu!” Seeing his lover crying so aggrieved, Liu Mufeng came back to his senses and hurriedly helped the other party wipe away his tears. “Don’t cry. Why are you crying?”
“Mufeng, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have been half-hearted. I will never, never again. I will only like you in the future. I will treat you wholeheartedly. I will treat you wholeheartedly. I promise, I promise!” Jiang Xu said excitedly, holding Liu Mufeng’s hand.
Seeing the person who was so anxious to confess to him, Liu Mufeng smiled and pinched the tip of the other person’s crying red nose. “Good. Don’t leave me. Don’t abandon me. In this life and this world, you are mine. I will never accept a concubine, and you will never accept another. We only belong to each other.”
“En!” Nodding, a sweet smile appeared on Jiang Xu’s face.
“I was so scared that you didn’t want me anymore.” Jiang Xu said aggrievedly.
Liu Mufeng raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why would you think that?”
“Because, because you were not answering me.” Jiang Xu pouted.
“Little fool,” Laughing and hugging him in his arms, “I was shocked with happiness. My soul flew away.” Liu Mufeng lowered his head and gently kissed his lover’s forehead.
“Mufeng!” Raising his face, Jiang Xu glanced at him shyly, his face flushed.
“XiaoXu, let’s go home and get married.” Liu Mufeng said with a smile, looking at the lover in his arms.
“Today? It’s too hasty, isn’t it? I have to go to buy wedding clothes. I haven’t cut the happy words yet, and our house has not been cleaned.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu said dully.
“Then, how about tomorrow? It should be possible to arrange the house for the day’s affairs, right?” After thinking about it, Liu Mufeng said, “We will get married tomorrow.” He didn’t want his beloved to suddenly regret it again.
“Okay, okay, then tomorrow.” After thinking about it, Jiang Xu nodded and agreed.
“Good, then let’s go back quickly. Let’s go to the city to buy things first. Buy everything you need today, and we can get married tomorrow after you arrange it.” Letting go of the person in his arms, Liu Mufeng took his lover’s hand and excitedly returned.
“Okay!” Seeing the man who was so eager to go back to get married, Jiang Xu showed a sweet smile. He could see that Mufeng was very happy now and wanted to marry him. And he was just as delighted as Mufeng.

Riding on a demon horse, the male and female protagonists were on their way back to Jialan City.
“Hey, I thought I could find that alchemist this time? I didn’t expect to find nothing for half a year.” Speaking of this, the heroine sighed faintly.
“Yeah, we ran around for nothing.” Speaking of this, the male protagonist felt a little regretful.
“Zhantian, you, do you really not like Xiao Xu?” Looking at her fiancé, the heroine asked tentatively.
The male protagonist responded with dismay. “Other people may not know about him, don’t you know? He seduced his cousin’s fiancé at the age of thirteen, and his actions with that Liu Mufeng were ambiguous. The two of them actually drank water from one water bag and shamelessly confessed to me. This kind of person, what is there for me to like?” When it came to this, the male protagonist felt depressed. It was really distasteful to be confessed by such an aggressive and charming person.
Looking at the male lead’s gloomy face, the female lead secretly sighed. “Zhantian, you can’t say that. Maybe there was a misunderstanding between Xiao Xu and Xu Qianshan?”
“Misunderstanding? How is that possible? Could it be that the Xu family and the Jiang family can join forces to accuse him? Besides, you didn’t see him and that Liu Mufeng was flirting with each other. How could such a person enter the door of my Xiao family?” Speaking of this, the male protagonist looked contemptuous. If Jiang Xu hadn’t been kicked out of the house by the Jiang family, then he might have considered taking him as a concubine to stabilize the relationship between both families. However, since Jiang Xu had been expelled from the Jiang family, there was no good value for him.
“Since you don’t like him, forget it. I was thinking that If you can’t give up, I will let you take him as a concubine.” Speaking of this, the heroine sighed lightly.
“Shishi, what are you talking about? It’s enough for me to have you. What concubine?” He smiled gently at the heroine, and the hero’s face was tender.
Hearing what the male protagonist said, the female protagonist laughed. “You!”
“Shishi, I think you seem to be paying attention to that Liu Mufeng.” Looking at his fiancee, the male protagonist said sourly.
“Zhantian, you misunderstood. I said a few more words to him because I suspected he was an alchemist. How could I like that kind of person?” The heroine hurriedly explained. How could it be possible for a spiritual planter from a third-rate small family to have caught her eye?
“Do you think he is an alchemist?” The male protagonist asked suspiciously, frowning.
“The spiritual plants on him have a strong smell, but a spiritual planter also has the smell of spiritual plants, very similar to an alchemist. In fact, the two are very indistinguishable.” Speaking of this, The heroine frowned deeply. She was also unable to determine whether Liu Mufeng was an alchemist or a spiritual planter.
“Alchemy requires a heavenly flint or Earth Fire. So if he was an alchemist, he should be more or less contaminated with the aura of flames, which is somewhat different from a spiritual planter.” Looking at the female lead, the male lead said seriously.
“That is the strangest thing. Liu Mufeng’s body has a strong aura of flames. However, that is not the smell of Heavenly Fire Stone, Earth Fire, or any Fire Vessels.” Speaking of this, the heroine also felt very strange.
“Is it because he has a fire spiritual root?” Raising his eyebrows, the male protagonist asked uncertainty.
“Maybe.” After thinking about it, the heroine gave a vague answer.
“It’s okay, let’s go back and get married first. If you suspect this Liu Mufeng, ask the family to send someone to investigate the Liu family. Wouldn’t it be clear?”
“Well, after I go back, I will tell my father and let him send someone to investigate the Liu family.” Nodding, the heroine also felt that she should investigate.
