No Escape

Chapter 3

Six months have passed by after that sudden arrival of King Yibo into the dandelion kingdom.

Ofcourse, it had become a talk of town. Everyone knew who was Wang Yibo and what he was capable of! But what bothered them was why did he made his sudden arrival into the kingdom? And what was his reason for the arrival? NO ONE KNEW EXCEPT THE FOUR WALLS OF THE MARVELOUS PALACE.

Rumours were that, he must have been there to declare a war, partially they were right. But that was not Wang Yibo's  first motive, Moreover,he wouldn't show case his call for the wars. So this further intruded the people in the talks.

If he really was to declare the war then by now, they would be in the depression state of war. But nothing like this happened to which the people were heartily grateful for. But the stormy days is yet to come and when it does, it will surely leave a catastrophic scars on them.

"Ge, you sure this is right? What if we get caught?". Xiao Cheng, Xiao zhan's cousin, asked his brother in his low voice, scared of their plan.

"Don't you worry. Trust me on this. I have done it thousands a time". Xiao Zhan reassured. Cheng face went pale after hearing his cousin's words.  'thousands a time'.

Slowly they walk passed the guards at the front gate. Disguised as one of the slaves from the palace. They just wanted to get outside the palace inorder to get a glimpse of the outer world.

"Hey wait". Commanded the patrolling leader to the staffs. 'shit don't tell me we are caught' that thought runned across their mind.

"...Turn around". The leader commanded.
The slaves turned around, bewildered faces were there as well as the feared ones. They knew for sure that they had to better not mess with the royal guards.

"Yes master" shuttered the old man.

"What's in that sack?".

"Some rotten vegetables, master. We are taking it to our homes for the plants as we need some mules for it. But if you object on it, then we can just keep it here your master". The old man moved forward to remove the cover.

"No need for it. You can leave and be quick to your home".

"Yes master". They said it in unison.

Both Zhan and Cheng helped in moving the cart which contained the sacks.

The more they approach the main gate, beads of sweat had risen from Cheng's forward.

And in a  swift they both were outside the palace.

"Young man, where are you heading to without taking these sacks? take some of it. You have helped us". The old man said.

"No need for it grandpa. For now, we haven't plant anything in our house". Xiao Zhan said it with his bright smile while Cheng was trying to catch his breath after both pushing the cart and nearly getting caught.

"That's strange, young man. You must plant some trees or atleast any plant so that it will bring some goodluck to you as well as peace to your home". The old man advised.

"I will do it later grandpa. But for now i will take my leave". And with that both of bid their goodbye and left for the market.

Cheng had his mouth open, he had never expected for a market to be this busy.

Everyone were busy with their work. The vendors trying their best to attract more customers and especially that it was night time, it was the best view.

"Ay Ge, how about we go over there". Cheng pointed towards a store.

"Aiya, A-cheng not there how about my favourite place". Xiao Zhan dragged him to the liquor store.

"You sure about this?" Cheng asked for reassurance.

"Aiya, you are now acting like a coward. Let's move in already".

Nevertheless within two hours, Cheng was heavy head drunk while Zhan wasn't even a bit of it.

"Aish this brat is drunk. Pffttt. Seems like I need to work out with this". Xiao Zhan mumbled.

Soon after, he booked a lodge nearby and carefully placed Cheng on his bed before slipping his way to another place.

'he will not wake up till morning'

Xiao Zhan walked further down the end of the market and a bit in the woods. After reaching his destination, he made whistle twice-swift.

Before he could do his third one, a beautiful young lady appeared, "Can you be less obvious? You might wake up my dad". The lady hissed while Xiao Zhan goffly smiled.

" Aiyooo Chyou, my love, it's been a long time since we met". Xiao Zhan hugged his lover who was a year younger than him.

"Yes it is" she complained yet she had no option but to adapt to their less-meet. It's obvious because of their class difference. She was a daughter of physician and a physician herself. And he was the next King. No way she will be accepted. But their forbidden love was just so irresistible for them.

So under the bright moon, both the lover shared their lovely moments with their whereabouts talks.

"Zhan..."she called softly. He lifted his head from her lap.".... You love me right?" She suddenly had tears in her eyes.

Without a second he hugged her and whispered, "I love you more than you can imagine".

She smiled after that. So what if the society doesn't accept their relation they were both actually very happy to be in each other's arms.

"Zhan, even if I cannot claim you as my lover in an appropriate manner in this life, I pray to God that in my next life, I want you all for myself". She whispered audible enough for  both of them.

"Stop speaking such things. You will be my lover for the rest of my life and even if I was to get reborn, I only want you as my lover". He blew a kiss on her forehead. Both enjoyed the warmth emitting from their hug.

Only if they knew a storm was to intervene into their lives.
