Chapter Text
It had been a nice night, all the nights have been nice for as long as Shen Yuan wants to remember
As Shen Yuan played with Pei Ming's hair he thought, ahh maybe he had been too.. excited last night if Pei Ming was still asleep
Shen Yuan gets up from his place on Pei Ming's.... chest, and starts his morning.
Shen Yuan puts down the draft he was looking at, it looked promising, the story was better than anything Tian Yao ever wrote before, but maybe it wasn't a just comparison for the only thing he wrote before was papapa.
He looks at the study door where the knock came from, Pei Ming stands at the doorway, dressed in his civilian clothing, for they were going to mingle with mortals and his usual attire would catch looks... and whistles.
"A-Yuan" he whines "Are you sure i cannot wear my other robes? I may be handsome but this colour does NOT do me justice"
Hmph, Shen Yuan thinks fondly, As if any colour could wash his beauty
"Stop trying to act so sly" he scolds him, "You are just fishing for compliments. Now are you ready A-Ming?"
Pei Ming chuckles sheepishly and nods. "A-Yuan is it so bad if i were fishing for compliments? Not that I were but its not that bad if I want my husband to compliment me ,is it?" he teases.
Shen Yuan ignores his teasing and moves towards the entrance of the palace. Tch if he were not so insincere i would compliment him ,but then he would get insufferable ,Shen Yuan muses.
"A-Yuan I still don't know why you are interested in this sect, its not as if they will ascend anytime soon, these mortals have a long way to go" Pei Ming complains as he helps Shen Yuan on the carriage.
"I told you it is an academic interest, it has been so long since a sect gained such fame ,in addition to that I wish to record this entrance event" Shen Yuan enunciates "If it truly bores you so much, I can ask Tian Yao to accompany me." As he says this ,Pei Ming's expression sours, "NO, I meant ,of course I wish to accompany you ,don't trouble him with this", he says while gritting his teeth.
Shen Yuan chuckles inwardly ,Ah Pei Ming it is so easy to rile you up on this.
"So is this the contest or the entrance exam you wish to record? This is subpar at best A-Yuan." ,Pei Ming whines from his seat ,again.
if I had known how much you would whine, I would have left you at home! ,Shen Yuan thinks as he rubs his temple. In hindsight it was his fault, it had been him who was so excited to see the stallion protagonist of his hated novel that he wanted to share this moment with Pei Ming, he forgot one thing ,Pei Ming does not know who Luo Binghe is.
"A-Ming quit your whining, we are guests at this esteemed event ,stop behaving like a child, even the disciples here are more put together then yo-"he gets cut off by the feeling of Pei Ming's lips on his.His eye suddenly wanders to the peak lords seating and Oh my God the scum villain is glaring in our direction!, he wrenches his face away from his husband's who bursts into laughter after seeing Shen Yuan's indignant face.
"you-" Shen Yuan almost shouts ,his face was on fire, and the scum villain glares at him from his seat like he is the dirt of his boots.
Think rationally Shen Yuan ,the scum villain is not your father so it does not matter if he saw your husband kissing you, he berates himself, there is no need to panic, it isn't like you would ever see him again.
And thinking that was probably his biggest mistake.
