The Legend Of Beishang
61. "Don't forget it's all just.....
She stepped in gracefully and her white dress turned slightly yellow as it was lit by the oil lamps and candles that were inside the room.
The room had a small window so that the lighting in the room turned into dim.
The air in the room was warm and filled with fragrant mint leaves that stung the nose. He sat across from the man who was writing it.
"Bei Wang, what did you do until you called me here ?" Ask her formally.
A friendly thin smile was imprinted on his face while he sat up neatly and waited for the answer from this man sitting in front of him.
"I heard that you brought a little girl with you. " Say Bei Zhao coldly.
"Yes, that's right. " Reply answered casually.
"You can't just bring people into my area. I want you to give it back. " Bei Zhao said without raising his eyes.
"Why is that Bei Wang ? I just happened to accept him as a disciple, how could I leave him ? " Task her with a cynical smile.
"Murids ? What can you teach him ? I think he's a blind man to raise as a teacher. You can't even save yourself. " Said Bei Zhao.
"I can't teach you what ? Bei Wang, you look at me too low. Even though I am uneducated and have no power, at least I can still poison others to death. Or, at the very least I can make you suffer not even being able to get up again. What do you think ?" Ask her with a cold smile.
"Zhou Beishang, are you threatening me ?" Ask Bei Zhao.
"I don't dare threaten you, just give a few light warnings. Don't think too much, Your Majesty. " She said with a thin smile as before.
"Where did you go today ?" Bei Zhao asked choosing not to discuss Fang Ling anymore.
"To market. " Answer lightly.
"Who are you walking with ?" Bei Zhao asked as he looked at her.
"With A Xiang and the Young Chief, Yang Xin. " Answer calmly.
"That's great, your courage seems to have covered the sky, Zhou Beishang. " Bei Zhao said coldly and filled with anger.
"How dare you walk alone with another man behind His Majesty !" Bei Zhao said as he struck the table which was instantly split in half.
He was still calm and even laughed mischievously.
"Bei Wang, are you jealous ? Or are you following me ?" Ask her with scorn.
"Jealousy head! Your actions ruined my good name, don't you know that ? You humiliated the Bei Wang residence, you are Bei Wangfei !" Bei Zhao said in a high tone.
He stared coldly at Bei Zhao and the smile on his face had completely disappeared.
"Bei Wang, it seems you forgot something. Don't forget it's all just a useless fake title. " Say him cynically.
"Bei Wang, I don't interfere in your personal affairs but you take care of my personal affairs. Is this what is called fair ? Can I say I walk together ? I think it's better to call it walking three !" He said in a mocking tone.
Bei Zhao's face turned grim and looked as if he had just swallowed some dirt, the young man advancing his body towards Zhou Beishang.
While Zhou Beishang was cornered on the wall, the faces of the two were so close that they could even feel a gust of breath.
But, this was not like a romantic scene but rather a tense scene. Zhou Beishang seemed unaffected by the bluff made by Bei Zhao.
"Bei Wang, you have overestimated yourself. Do you think that I will retreat just because of this little bluff ? I have experienced it so often in the past, I have even forgotten how the sensation of fear. " She said with a laugh and made her eyes leave only a thin line.
"For 18 years of living in a bluff, do you think I will be affected by this little bluff ? I'm afraid, I'll let you down, Bei Wang. " She said with a smile that disappeared in a matter of seconds.
His face turned flat and he pushed Bei Zhao's body backwards which made the young man retreat.
He shook his shoulders that were in contact with Bei Zhao, his expression showing a very real sense of disgust.
"Alright, Zhou Beishang because you're so challenging. It seems that your relationship with Young Chairman Yang, is very deep. " Bei Zhao said angrily.
"I don't care what you say Bei Wang, no matter what my relationship with Young Chairman Yang is, you don't deserve to interfere. " She said.
When he said this, he felt a bitter taste rising into his mouth. If she was alone then she would smile.
This Bei Zhao said, like a piercing dagger right in his wound that had not even dried up.
The still wet wound was once again torn and doused with salt water, this caused pain as well as a bitter taste in his mouth.
But, he knew that he should not show the slightest bit of weakness. He could not be weak just because of this little thing.
"Bei Wang, it seems that our conversation is over. I'll leave first. "She said with a faint smile and got up from her seat.
When he was right in front of the door, he stopped his steps.
"If you have free time then tell me, sooner is better for your treatment. "She said stiffly.
"Zhou Beishang, are you so eager to part from this Your Majesty ?" Bei Zhao asked ambiguously.
"Why not ? We all have no feelings for each other, do we ? It is better to immediately part and take each other's path. " She said while laughing bitterly.
He did not dare to delay anymore and walked out while lowering his head, while Zhou Beishang walked away even his shadow started to disappear.
Bei Zhao looked at Zhou Beishang's blurred back with an indecipherable look.
On one hand, he should be happy that Zhou Beishang had already agreed to part with him. Wasn't this the goal from the beginning ?
He had someone he liked, to him Zhou Beishang was his inhibitor and disgrace.
But, why when saying that directly did he feel strange ? Why did he feel a slight sense of unreality in his little heart ?
Why did he seem as if he did not want Zhou Beishang to go and part with him ? This feeling was too strange and could not be understood by him.
