Jiang Cheng's mouth was agape staring at his son . How could his son do this ? Such ill manners ! He had taught his son better ! Jingyi was clinging onto a stranger's robes and asking the man to carry him to make matters worse the man was Lan Xichen . Shit , my life really sucks ! Jiang Cheng wanted to rush there and snatch his son out that man's embrace . He didn't deserve Jingyi . But he saw how happy his son was , afterall that man was his father . Even if Lan Xichen didn't deserve him Jingyi did deserve a father and Jiang Cheng was confident Lan Xichen atleast would be a good father . This had him conflicted should he give Xichen the right to be Jingyi's father ? But that would result in his doom , making him spill all his hidden feelings , making him vulnerable again , again in front of that man who took advantage of his transperency and his love . If Jiang was ever to see Lan Xichen his heart would beat faster , he had butterflies in his stomach , he couldn't help but smile at the other , Jiang Cheng became weak at the very sight of Lan Xichen , even now , even now when Jiang Cheng repeatedly asked himself to hate that man he still wasn't able to so all he did was turn the abundant love he had for the other into yet the hate he created was fragile , so weak that it would break at the least of uncertainty , the line Jiang Cheng drew in between him and Lan Xichen was a line of hatred but so thin that it would be erased any moment .

Jiang Cheng glanced at his son again . Jingyi was smiling , so brightly . He was beaming at Lan Xichen . Jiang Cheng couldn't take it any longer he stormed off to the trio.

" Jingyi what do you think you are doing ? I have taught you better manners , haven't I ? Then why are you letting this stranger take you ? " Jiang Cheng questioned his son with anger evident in his eyes .

Jingyi flinched at his A - Niang's unusual angry voice at him . He had never seen his father in this manner and never had his father scolded him till now . He jumped out of Lan Xichen's arms and quickly shuffled towards Jiang Cheng .

" I ...I am sorry , A - Niang . I won't associate with any strangers from now on . " Jingyi was unhappy at himself for making his A - Niang upset . He really wished for him to forgive him .

" Hmm....good . Go to your room A - Yi . Take Sizhui with you .         A - Niang has to do some things . " Flashing his son a smile as reassurance of his forgiveness Jiang Cheng watched his son going in the distance . Turning the focus back to the first jade .

" Zewujun , I asked you to get out of my life and leave me alone but today I see you here trying to manipulate my son . Why ? Do you want to take him with you ? Tell him you are his father and turn him against me ? Dream on Lan Xichen . I won't let you touch a single strand of his hair again . If you do , I will not hesitate in cutting those hands off . "  Jiang Cheng's eyes were red , his fist curled up , zidian sparking uncontrollably .

" A - Cheng is that m..my s...s..son ?! " Lan Xichen had no idea that it was his son . He saw his nephew play with another boy of the same age which was rare so he decided to check who this little boy was and surprisingly enough he found this boy to be too irresistible , he sensed a similarity in this boy , a warmth he missed . He felt it strange but never prodded why . That was until the boy called Jiang Cheng as his A - Niang . Lan Xichen was in a daze to speak anything for some time but Jiang Cheng's yelling snapped him back to reality and he asked the question to which the answer was obvious but he still wanted the other to anwer this question .

" Yes ! I mean if not why would he refer to me as A - Niang ? Wait.....you are asking me as if you didn't know , you knew that's why you approached him ,  right ? Don't tell me ..... you really didn't know who he was ! "

" He really is my son ! I am so glad I could meet him ! He is such a beautiful child . Thank you A - Cheng for giving me such a precious little boy . Thank you for everything you have done for him . Thank you A - Cheng . " Tears ran down Lan Xichen's cheeks yet he had a smile on him .

Seeing him drenched in tears Jiang Cheng couldn't help but want to wipe it away . His hands unconsciously moved forward and wiped those tears , once again his lips pressed a soft kiss to Lan Xichen's forehead and he said , " You don't have to thank me . He was afterall the last speck you left for me which always reminded me of you , me and us . The difference when we are by ourselves and when we are ' us ' . "

Jiang Cheng walked away cursing himself for showing his true feeling out in the open for Lan Xichen to see . But he couldn't help it , he loved him that much . Suddenly a hand grabbed his wrist and turned him around , as soon as he was turned he felt his lips being pressed to a pair of soft lips . Their lips moving together , like they belonged together . Jiang Cheng so wanted to stop kissing Lan Xichen but again he couldn't , he longed for this too much . Breaking the sweet and gentle kiss Lan Xichen looked straight into Jiang Cheng's eyes , held his hand and said " ..........
