Chapter 1233: Myrth:

(Unedited)

…

Xin Ja seemed to have lost his mind as he did not know what happened next. He was the one who instigated it, but it was as if the time froze as he stood in place with his eyes closed. His mind drifted as he puckered his lips for a kiss.

However, he waited for a long time and he slowly opens his eyes.

Rou Chenchen looks at him with a blushing face as she did not know what he is doing.

With an awkward atmosphere between them, Xin Ja did not know what to do and just bit his lip as he stood with an embarrassed expression on his face.

He was thinking at that time that Rou Chenchen would also move forward and meet his kiss. But this was all in his mind.

The uncomfortable air made Xin Ja scratch his head then look at Rou Chenchen while showing a sheepish smile.

Both of their faces are now blushing while the two looks at each other in silence.

Suddenly, Xin Ja gained courage as he tips his head forward and gave Rou Chenchen a peck on her soft lips.

The young woman as startled when this happened and her eyes bulge as she looks at Xin Ja incredulously.

Her glasses even got crooked as she looks at the departing back of Xin Ja who looks like a thief who has stolen something from a maiden.

Xin Ja did not know how he got home but upon arriving he received a surprising letter.

The letter came from Yi Terai who sent it to him via the shared Mule.

Later that night, inside his room he began writing on his study table.

The letter that Yi Terai sent him made him feel a bit guilty. She actually told him that she missed him and that she likes him for some reason.

This made Xin Ja feel flustered and did not know what to say.

However, he knew that he could not reciprocate the feeling that Yi Terai is showing him. He dare not play with her feelings as he already has someone in his heart.

So he decided to write her a letter that conveys his true intention towards her and about his relationship with Rou Chenchen.

It took him a while to write, and it was already late at night when he finished writing.

"I hope that she can move on and find someone who would truly love her…" Xin Ja muttered.

…

The next day…

Xin Ja walked towards the academy and passed by Rou Chenchen's home.

He waited for a while and was a bit baffled as Rou Chenchen did not go out of the manor. He feels a bit confused so he decided to ask.

A guard standing by the door saw Xin Ja and showed a frown on his face.

"Who are you? This is the Rou residence… State your business…" the guard asked.

The stern-looking guard made Xin Ja feel a bit intimidated.

She showed a polite smile and then said.

"Is… Is Rou Chenchen still at home?" he asked.

The guard frowns and then looks at the other guard. The two seem to have a tacit understanding and nodded their heads.

"Are you Xin Ja?" the guard asked.

"Yes…" Xin Ja said with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"We were told to tell you that if ever you come, we should advise you to keep your distance from Miss Rou Chenchen… She is not someone that you should have a relationship with." The guard said with an apologetic expression.

When Xin Ja heard this, he immediately showed a frown.

Why should he keep his distance from her?

It was just yesterday that the two of them shared their first kiss, and now he could not be together with her? How could he accept such a thing?

He wanted to say something, but he held himself back because he knew that the guards are just doing their duty.

"Is… Is this her decision?" Xin Ja asked with a pained expression.

"This… *sigh… We don't know young master Xin… All we know is that the family told us that you are not permitted to see her ever again…" the other guard said.

Xin Ja was a bit hurt and he wanted to suddenly charge inside the house to ask Rou Chenchen. However, he did not want to cause more trouble.

He is not someone who would lose his reason in this kind of manner.

He has already developed his patience and perseverance since childhood. He would just ask her then if this is truly what she wanted.

Xin Ja went to school with a heavy feeling. He looks at the seat behind him and feels a bit depressed upon seeing the empty seat.

He did not know what just happened.

"Is it because I kissed her? Is it because she did not find me attractive? Why?..." he thought as his mind drifted afar thinking of the reason why she would not see him again anymore.

Unknown to him, tears began to form in the corner of his eyes as he looks at the window from inside the classroom.

"Student Xin… Are you okay?" the teacher suddenly asked which startled him.

He looks at the teacher and noticed the tears in his eyes.

"Uhh… Sorry… Umm… Please excuse me, sir…" he said as he quickly stood up and then ran out of the classroom.

Qing Joming who saw this raised his hand up and then also excused himself as he followed behind Xin Ja.

Xin Ja walks into a secluded room and leaned on the wall. He began crying as he did not know what is happening. His heart truly hurts so much at this time.

"Brother Ja…" Qing Joming called as he also leaned on the wall.

"I… I actually know what is happening. I… I just don't know how to say it to you…" he said with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

"Last night… Last night was Rou Chenchen's last day in Ogden Town…" he said while looking at the sky.

When Xin Ja heard this, his eyes went wide in disbelief.

He looks at Qing Joming as if he wanted to eat him.

"What do you mean?!" Xin Ja said with very strong killing intent.

Qing Joming, who is taking the brunt of the pressure, almost slumps on the ground. His breathing became heavy as if he is being suffocated.

"Ca… Calm down…" he said as he took a step away from Xin Ja.

"Let me explain… okay?" he said as the pressure lessened.

"Damn it, this guy is really terrifying… I can't believe that he is only at the 1st level…" Qing Joming thought with a fearful expression.

"Our Qing family… while you were at war… One of my cousins from the capital of Jimal visited the town… He… He accidentally saw Rou Chenchen and heard that she is good at alchemy. She… she…" Qing Joming hesitated as a complicated emotion appears in his heart.

He knew that if he told this to his friend, he is sure that the guy would start blaming himself because of this. However, he also could not keep him in the dark of the truth.

"What happened?" Xin Ja said as the pressure began rising again.

"Wait… Calm down first… Promise me that you will not blame yourself no matter what…" Qing Joming said while trying to make a firm stand.

Xin Ja furrows his brow in dissatisfaction and confusion.

"Alright… I promise you…" he said in annoyance.

"*sigh… Rou Chenchen has been trying to experiment in making 'the pills' and she… succeeded." Qing Joming said with a hint of hesitation in the end.

When Xin Ja heard this, he looks at him with a hint of confusion.

"My cousin thought that she was the one who created the pill. But in truth, she saw you made it… that' why she succeeded. The Rou family discovered this and was already planning to keep her. But my cousin offered them a better option. He has a connection to the royal clan and the alchemist association…" Qing Joming explained.

"She then told them about her last request before leaving, and she also asked me to not tell you anything… But, how could I not?" Qing Joming added.

Upon hearing this, Xin Ja suddenly slumps on the ground while tears once again begin pouring out of his eyes.

He did not expect that things would have such a turn. He knew that the Rou family began to think highly of Rou Chenchen after creating a pill. So, her relation to a mere level 1, although Xin Ja is a hero, is something that would pull her down from her future prospect.

He knew that his value has lessened ever since the blueprint of the Mecha has already spread throughout the kingdom. Even if he was considered a hero, his level of strength is still something unacceptable in the eyes of many, especially those powerful families and clans.

As he looks at the sky, grit his teeth and proclaimed in a hushed tone.

"Chenchen… Wait for me… I promise to find you… and take you away with me no matter what.. No one can stop me…" Xin Ja said with a determined gaze.
