War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 16

…

A quiet environment where people would come and go is what greeted Xin Ja when he enters the alchemy association.

He did not attract too much attention as he noticed that people are busy with something. They would even discuss it while walking.

In his curiosity, he decided to listen to the side.

Soon he discovered that the reason why the alchemist is busy at this time of the day is because of the request from the royal family.

Upon remembering the royal family, a complicated feeling rose up in Xin Ja's heart.

He feels a tinge of anger, annoyance, respect, and friendship towards them.

He knew of the complication in the royal family, so he could not blame his friend and his luck.

Soon, his figure disappears and then reappears atop the roof of the institute.

Peeking inside, he saw an old man sitting calmly behind a desk while looking at some documents.

Suddenly, that old man stopped what he was doing and looks up. When he saw the figure of Xin Ja inside the room, he was both afraid and shocked.

"You… you're that… that Xin Ja fellow, right?" he stuttered while looking at Xin Ja.

Xin Ja bowed and then showed a faint smile on his face as he casually walks to the side and takes a seat on the sofa.

"Tell me what happened to Rou Chenchen…" he asked calmly.

When the old man heard this his figure stiffens, but he could tell that the young man before him is not the same young man as before. He seems to be not as weak as he used to be before.

There is some kind of strange and powerful aura around him that made the old man feel intimidated. Upon realizing this, he knew that it only means one thing. The young fellow is not a mere Ki-Master, but maybe a Ki-Champion.

Upon thinking to this point, the old man who is the president of the alchemy association could not help but lament the fact that a young fellow like this one could be that strong.

He did not know how the young increased his strength in such a short time, but he also did not want to challenge the guy.

And so, he decided to tell him the truth.

…

After an hour…

Xin Ja walks out of the alchemy association building with a complicated feeling in his heart.

He truly thought that Rou Chenchen understood him and his actions. But it turned out that she actually did really faint upon hearing about his death.

And the reason why she did not reply to his messages is because of this…

He carefully helps the Mule of Rou Chenchen in his hand while feeling a bit vexed.

He wanted to crush that thing… he wanted to shout to get angry, to vent his frustrations. But he held it in his heart as he is not that rash of a person anymore after experiencing a lot of things in his life.

But of course, Xin Ja is not that mature also.

Right now, what's coursing through his mind is to go to the Rou clan and see Rou Chenchen. He wanted to see for himself if she truly did not recognize him anymore.

He wanted to remove the effect of the potion given to her by the elders to appease her aching heart.

He wanted to say, 'Hey, that's now fair… Why forget about me? I'm still here alive and kicking!…'

Thinking about the things that he wanted to say to her, he did not notice that he is already walking in a certain direction.

Soon, he found himself looking at a gate with the words Rou at the top.

"Why did I go here?" he muttered as a complicated feeling rose up in his heart.

He gritted his teeth and decided to knock on the door. He did not know whether the people in this house would let him enter or not, he just decided to try his luck in the end.

He has no more will to know the truth from her mouth. While walking to this place, he been doing some thinking.

If he chases after Rou Chenchen and she recovers, then what happens next?

Will he fulfill his selfish desire and get involved in her life and put her through the same hard ordeal, or let her be and make her feel happy?

The choice in his heart is heavy and he did not know what to choose.

But unknowingly he has the desire to find out… he wanted to see her so much that he subconsciously already lifted his hand to knock on the door.

"Eh? Why are you here? How… how did you find that we are going here?" a familiar voice suddenly interrupted his train of thoughts.

A young woman is standing behind him as she seems to have just alighted from a car behind her.

Then his eyes landed on the handsome young man who is helping another woman get off from the car.

When he saw the car, Xin Ja feels a bit proud as he knew that the 3rd prince has already popularized the car design in the capital.

He then looks at the woman and showed a faint smile on his face.

"I… I was just…"

"Oh, you're here to look for us, right?" the eyes of Rong Ching suddenly glowed with an excited expression on her face.

If this young and powerful man is truly looking for her and Rou Mei, then that means that they just meet and befriended someone really powerfully.

That would be something to brag about in the family after all.

"Hehe… The young sir is too kind. You should not have told us back then that you wanted to visit us… This is truly a surprise…!" she added with a wink.

Xin Ja was a bit surprised but he already got her message, so he nodded his head.

"Oh, by the way… This is my cousin… Rong Wan. He is the fiancé of Rou Chenchen…" she introduced the handsome young man and Rou Mei stood in front of Xin Ja.

Right at this moment, the heart of Rou Mei skipped a beat upon hearing the introduction of Rong Ching. She has already somewhat recognized Xin Ja, and upon seeing him in their home, she knew that her conjecture was correct.

She just did not know what would happen if Xin Ja knew that the young man before them is the fiancé of the woman he loves.

Xin Ja showed a faint smile, but he did not do anything.

He just scrutinized the young man before him and nodded his head towards him.

"Young sir, I am pleased to meet you. I did not expect that my cousin and sister-in-law would meet some kind of accident while strolling around. This lowly one owes you a lot, sir…" the young man named Rong Wan cupped his hand and bowed in respect.

Xin Ja nodded his head.

"It's fine… I'm just here for a visit…" he then said.

"Then let's go inside…" Rong Ching guided Xin Ja inside followed by the two.

Soon, they arrive in a garden with many flowers.

While walking in this direction, Rou Mei could not help but feel nervous. She did not know what would happen, but she is helpless to stop Rou Ching at this point in time. She just prays that the young man would not react violently.

Xin Ja got seated on a veranda while some servants served some tea and snacks to them.

It is already nighttime, but the light in the area still illuminated the garden making it looks like a part of paradise.

"This is a good place…" Xin Ja commented.

"Hehe… My sister-in-law is the one who designed this garden." Rou Ching proudly said.

The young man beside her also showed a proud smile on his face.

It did not take long before two figures could be seen walking on the pathway by the garden side.

The two figures are beautiful. The older woman looks a bit mature, but one could see her beauty did not lose on the younger one.

By this time, the eyes of Xin Ja are glued to the younger woman. A slight smile appears on his face as he could tell that she did not change. She has the same smile as before. Though she is not wearing a mask now, he could still tell that she is truly feeling happy while walking with her mother.

When the two recognized that there are people on the veranda, the two showed smiles on their faces while waving their hands.

Rou Chenchen was the first one to arrive and hugs the two women. She then showed a faint smile at the young man as she walks in front of him and then touches his face with that loving smile on her.

Her slight action and the care she is showing are like sharp knives stabbing at Xin Ja's heart.

Two people are watching him with fear on their faces. One is Rou Mei who did not know how Xin Ja will react, and the other one is Rou Chenchen's mother who has just noticed Xin Ja sitting while watching the scene of her daughter flirting with another guy in front of the man she used to love.
