380 Such Kind of Love

Lóng Wei drank the water from the glass and felt better after traveling for hours. Huang Xi came with the box which Li Hua had prepared for them and handed it to Lóng Wei.

“What is this?” Lóng Wei looked at the box wrapped in silk cloth.

“Princess Consort has prepared the sweets for everyone in the morning. She asked me to give it to the prince,” Huang Xi said. Lóng Wei put the box on the table and opened the silk cloth from around the box.

He opened the tiffin box made of bamboo. He saw the layers of different colored sweets that were placed adjacent to each other. He smiled to see those sweets and picked one. He ate that and found out many eyes were on him. He knitted his brows as he did not want to share those sweets with anyone.

“Your Highness, the Princess Consort did not give them so that you can eat by yourself. Share them with us too,” Huang Xi said and extended his hand to pick a sweet when Lóng Wei slapped his hand.

Xiaoming smiled to see Lóng Wei’s reaction while Tianjie shook his head in dismay.

This was the first time someone had made sweets for Lóng Wei and if he would share them, then it would be his loss. He wanted to have those sweets by himself. “Li Hua is my wife. So, these sweets are for me not for everyone,” Lóng Wei stated and picked the second one.

“How will His Highness eat so many sweets in a day? If he would overeat them, then he might get sick,” Huang Xi said as he watched Lóng Wei enjoying those sweets. “With sharing love increases,” he asserted.

Lóng Wei beamed at him. “What did you say?” Lóng Wei asked him.

.....

“I want to say that if Prince Lóng Wei shares these sweets with everyone, then our love for him will increase,” Huang Xi stated.

“I do not want such kind of love to increase,” Lóng Wei affirmed.

“I will tell the Princess Consort when we return. Then, Her Highness will not talk with you,” Huang Xi tried to intimidate Lóng Wei when he knew that it would not work for Lóng Wei. At that moment, Tianjie picked up a sweet and started to eat that.

“Mmmm.” Tianjie liked the taste of the sweet. “The taste is heavenly,” he asserted when Lóng Wei asked him not to eat that.

“Return that sweet. You are not supposed to eat that,” Lóng Wei said and he put the box on the table. He got on his feet to snatch the sweet from Tianjie, who put the remaining sweet in his mouth.

Huang Xi quickly picked up one sweet for himself and the other for Xiaoming.

“Prince Lóng Wei shall not behave like a heartless human,” Huang Xi said while eating the sweet. Lóng Wei turned his gaze at him and a murderous expression formed on his face. He wanted to beat him up for taking the sweets without his permission when Xiaoming put his hand on his shoulder.

“Brother Lóng Wei the sweets will get sour because of the weather if kept for long. It is better to distribute them to everyone,” Xiaoming said in a polite way. Lóng Wei nodded and picked up the box.

He distributed the sweets to everyone, even though he did not want to. However, he did not give Huang Xi twice as he picked up the sweet without his permission.

“Do not fight like a child with Huang Xi,” Tianjie said. “You are even married, but your childish traits have not gone,” he remarked.

“I am not interested in talking to the Third Prince,” Lóng Wei said with a wide, fake smile. He closed the box and handed it to Huang Xi. He was wondering why Tianjie was suddenly acting like a concerned brother. He had not forgotten what Qiu Mu had told him. Tianjie had tried to kill Li Hua that day.

Xiaoming told Lóng Wei that he should not behave this way with Tianjie. Lóng Wei did not pay heed to his words and went inside the carriage.

It was time for their departure. They had rested for an hour and now, they had to reach Kharlan by the evening so that they could spend the night in the rest house. Xiaoming and Tianjie also went inside the carriage.

After thirty minutes, they resumed the journey. Lóng Wei had closed his eyes.

“Brother Lóng Wei, why do you not engage with us for a conversation?” Xiaoming asked him.

“I am not interested,” Lóng Wei did not want to talk with them. He was already upset about the sweets that he had to share. Also, he was missing Li Hua. At this hour, he would either be talking with her or they both be sleeping. He was frustrated again because he had no idea how many days he would see Li Hua. He wondered if Xiaoming was feeling the same way as he was.

“I have decided to go to the Qijiang’s hilly side if the situation is tough,” Xiaoming said.

Lóng Wei opened his eyes and looked at him.

“In the morning, General Hei Chengxi said that situation is not good there. Our soldiers have been attacked multiple times in mere a week. All this was not revealed earlier because it could have created more stress,” Xiaoming asserted.

“How the soldiers were attacked?” Tianjie queried.

“At night they were mysteriously killed,” Xiaoming replied.

“There might be someone among the soldiers, who may be doing this,” Tianjie opined.

“That information was not out about that,” Xiaoming stated.

“What is the use of even having half information? Do they not that half knowledge is the worst enemy of a human,” Lóng Wei finally spoke. “Let’s not make any decision until we reach Qijiang province,” he suggested to them.

“The information might be half, but it is useful for us. We can see how powerful the enemy is!” Tianjie stated.

“And what should we do about that? Indeed, the enemy is stronger. He killed the General there easily,” Lóng Wei argued. “In my opinion, we should formulate a plan only after knowing and investigating everything in Qijiang,” Lóng Wei advised them.
