Dance Of The Dragons

There was one good reason why Zhang Fengxi did not want Liu Wenyuan to be crowned as the Ethereal Beauty. It was the impossible competition that occurred right afterward.

Although Zhang Fengxi did win over all those alphas in his past life, he did not enjoy the process. He was a supreme general, for heaven's sake! Omegas threw themselves at his feet in his past life.

These alphas should just scatter away at his sight. How infuriating.

Zhang Fengxi was boiling from anger by himself when he came to Crystal Jade Pavilion the next morning. Apparently, his sullen aura failed to convey the right message, because someone decided to chat him up.

"Oi, Zhang Fengxi."

Zhang Fengxi furrowed his brows at the person who called him. It was Zhou Guiying, the playboy. He casually put an arm around Zhang Fengxi's shoulder, and Zhang Fengxi flicked that arm away in annoyance.

"Ouch. Is that a way to treat your classmate?"

Zhou Guiying pursed his lips, hurt by Zhang Fengxi's rejection.

"Don't get too close to me. We are both alphas. I don't want to stir some irresponsible rumors."

Upon hearing Zhang Fengxi's words, Zhou Guiying had to roar in laughter.

"Hahahahaha!!! I heard that rumor about you and the Crown Prince!!! Are you serious??? Bahahahahaha!!!"

Zhang Fengxi's face turned red, and then purple. He was so angry that he wanted to beat Zhou Guiying up. Must this bastard speak so loudly? What if someone heard them and misunderstood?

As fate had it, the last person Zhang Fengxi wanted to hear the blasphemous accusation came over and overheard.

Liu Wenyuan chose that inopportune moment to show up with two beta maids behind him.

"Liu Wenyuan, what a coincidence. Have you heard that... OWWW!!!"

Zhou Guiying cried out in pain.

Zhang Fengxi had ruthlessly stepped onto his foot. That dragon-scaled boot with iron sole was no joke! Zhou Guiying was pretty sure that Zhang Fengxi cracked some of his foot bones.

Zhang Fengxi could not care less. He strode toward the omega with a blinding smile and asked, "Wenyuan, what brings you here?"

Noble omegas also received the chance to learn at the Golden Dragon Palace, but they did not study alongside the alphas.

It was thus surprising to see Liu Wenyuan here at this time.

"I... Prince Fengxi, we haven't seen each other for a while. I was worried, so I... I am sorry!" the omega flushed in embarrassment.

Oh, good gods in heaven.

How adorable was the empress of his heart?

Zhang Fengxi took Liu Wenyuan by his elbow and led him away from the Crystal Jade Pavilion. Behind them, Zhou Guiying whistled loudly.

When the two beta maids moved to follow them, Zhang Fengxi shot them a look.

"Stay here until we are back."

The two beta maids did not dare to talk back. They merely gave their master a look. Liu Wenyuan gave a subtle nod before he turned away and went with Zhang Fengxi.

Unpleasant memories filled Zhang Fengxi's head whenever he looked at the Crystal Jade Pond. He thus dragged Liu Wenyuan further away to talk.

When they arrived at the small gazebo near the rows of heavenly bamboo trees, Zhang Fengxi turned to look at Liu Wenyuan and clapped his hands together in apology.

"I am sorry," he said in his most sincere tone. "I tried to visit you many times, but Wuyang Palace is full of visitors every day. I didn't even get to meet you after waiting for hours."

Liu Wenyuan listened to him patiently before he grasped Zhang Fengxi's hands in his and replied, "I am relieved to hear Prince Fengxi's explanation. I thought that maybe you already lost interest in me."

"That will -never- happen, do you hear me?" Zhang Fengxi squeezed Liu Wenyuan's hands in return. "Wenyuan, I love you."

Liu Wenyuan's beautiful lips fell open. His cheeks bloomed like the first plum blossoms against a snowy landscape. He looked so beautiful.

Unable to contain himself, Zhang Fengxi cupped the omega's cheeks and leaned closer.

Liu Wenyuan did not push him away. He closed his eyes as if anticipating the kiss.

It was just a kiss, but when their lips met, Zhang Fengxi's soul almost left his body. He was so happy that he did not mind dying then and there.

"Ewww...!"

A female voice caused the lovebirds to break apart in surprise.

It was Shi Qingyue, and she looked displeased with both hands against her waist.

Zhang Fengxi did not care about her. He was about to tell Shi Qingyue to scram when he saw who she came with.

Xie Jianyu stood there with an ashen face.

He saw the kiss.
