Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! [BL]

Chapter 798 - 15.17

"The moon is so beautiful today, don't you think?" Young General Fei said as he walked with Bai Shijue to the firework festival. 

Bai Shijue looked up, and he smiled, "The night of a blue moon is my favorite time. I always play Guqin to fill my time during the blue moon night. Because the atmosphere is very cold, yet serene."

"Young Master Bai can play Guqin?" Young General Fei clicked his tongue full of admiration. "It's very rare to see a young man able to play Guqin. You must've been learning how to play one since you're a kid."

"It is not a difficult music instrument, Young General. You just have to pluck the right string in the correct mood," Bai Shijue explained. 

Of course, that wasn't the case with General Fei. He was raised in a military family. He saw his little sister trying to learn Guqin, but she could not play it well because it was just so difficult. 

"I'd love to listen to you playing Guqin," General Fei said boldly. He didn't hold any thought in his head, especially when he was courting someone. 

The more he talked with this man, the more he realized that Bai Shijue would be the perfect soulmate to him, or to anyone, really. That was why Young General Fei was thinking about marrying Bai Shijue as soon as possible, so there wouldn't be anyone who could snatch Bai Shijue from him. 

"Playing Guqin? I can play a song or two while we're watching the firework tonight," Bai Shijue said. "There is a small pavilion near the lake. It's my private property not far from here. I left one of my spare Guqin there. So if Young General Fei doesn't mind, we can sit there and enjoy the firework festival from afar while I play the Guqin for you."

"That would be perfect!" Young General Fei got excited after thinking of a great situation where they could watch the firework festival from afar, away from other people and all the whispers of the old women who thought they were couples and two men in love were absolutely disgusting. 

"Please follow me, Young General. I will show you the way."

Bai Shijue and Young General Fei walked to the said pavilion privately owned by Bai Shijue. It was clean and had marble flooring. It was so expensive that nobody could afford it except the richest landlord or the Emperor himself. 

"I know you're from a rich family, Young Master Bai," General Fei said as he sat on the marble pavilion. 

Bai Shijue smiled thin. The marble pavilion was actually something that he owned in the heavenly realm. He liked spending time in the marble pavilion, so he used his power to bring the marble pavilion down and put on the invisible talisman on it, making sure no mortal would be able to see the pavilion unless he allowed it.

Bai Shijue sat beside General Fei and picked up the Guqin on the marble table.

"I have a piece of music that I created by myself. I will give you the first listen, Young General."

"Oh, that would be an honor for me," General Fei said. "It's rare for a human to be able to listen to music from heaven."

Bai Shijue chuckled at that banal compliment. But he played the music anyway.

Young General Fei took a deep breath and saw the lustrous Bai Shijue playing the Guqin. A faint butterfly was coming out of the Guqin for each string he plucked. 

It might be Genera Fei's hallucination, maybe because he had a drink before walking with Bai Shijue. 

"Young General, focus on the reflection of the moon. I will be embarrassed if you keep looking at me like that," Bai Shijue said. 

"Ah, I'm sorry," General Fei's cheeks reddened. "I tried to look away, but you're so beautiful, like the reflection of the moon on the lake right now."

"General Fei knows how to compliment. But please put your banal compliment at bay. I am not a woman who would be swayed by frivolous words."

"Nor do I see you as a woman, Bai Shijue. You're the most beautiful man I've ever seen, and I do love you as a man," General Fei confessed without hesitation. He was a general anyway. Whether he was a cut-sleeve or not, he still had the strength and capability of a general. Nobody would contest him, let alone mock him for his preference as long as he had power.

Bai Shijue was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect General Fei to be so straightforward. To be honest, he courted good feelings with Young General Fei because he wanted Han Shun to be treated fairly by the General in the garrison. 

He could use his power to infiltrate General Fei's mind and force him to be some sort of puppet, of course.

But that was against the law of heaven. He wasn't from the demonic sect, so he had to abide by the rule. 

He wasn't allowed to hurt the mortals, let alone break their minds with his power. So he had to take around way to persuade the General.

"Young General, you're so bold. Not that I hate it, but I do feel you're rushing it."

"Oh, don't mind me. I'm just raised to be a straightforward military man. I just want to tell you this, so you would understand that my intention is to marry you in the future."

Bai Shijue nodded lightly and continued plucking his Guqin. 

As much as General Fei wanted to hug and kiss Bai Shijue right now, he knew that Bai Shijue was a proper nobleman that would not accept the treatment of a prostitute.

So they watched the firework exploding into hundreds of beautiful colors from afar, spending the night together. 

Little did they know, there was a pair of eyes staring at them from afar.

[Pupa: Hey, buttbrain, did you know that Han Shun has been following you since the moment you left the teashop?]
