Adulterous Affair (1)

Xue Liang was given food by maids of Liu Gang Manor allowing herself to eat the food with no worries. Going over to a small pond once she had finished up, it had koi fish and a small waterfall with the water rushing down with a gleam of light. Looking at it she remembered the Taoist Temple had a huge waterfall that she would look at and enjoy everyday.

Closing her eyes, she loved to listen to the rushing water. Su Rong remained by her side, they both listened with birds flying by chirping as they sung their song.

"Liang, we have to talk." Liu Gang showed up looking at her seriously. Xue Liang turned to face him as she sent Su Rong away.

"What do you want to talk about?" Xue Liang asked curiously.

"I want to talk about Madam Wan and Minister Nie. I know that you have been collecting information about them." Xue Liang was surprised looking at him that he knew she was collecting all that information.

"It's not something you should put yourself in." Liu Gang felt rejected making himself grab her and pinning her to the pillar. With her back against the pillar, she faced Liu Gang giving her a tense gaze.

"How can I not be in it!? You keep rejecting me! I won't allow you to reject me this time or from now on. I promise you, I will get rid of those hurting you and your family." His cold eyes glared looking into hers, she never thought he would say that. Their faces were inching closer with their lips slightly touching until Peng Lim and Su Rong came in.

"Rong! I won't let you off easily!" Peng Lim was following behind her while she was speed walking. Xue Liang pushed Liu Gang giving them a good distance from one another while Su Rong and Peng Lim looked at the two with a look.

"Did... something happen?" Peng Lim decided to ask first.

"Nothing happened! Rong, let's go. Gang don't blame me for getting you involved." Xue Liang walked off with a flushed face leaving Liu Gang to only smile. He thought she had a cute face on at that moment. Peng Lim went next to him with a smirk.

"What did you do this time?" He asked lowly. Liu Gang elbowed Peng Lim’s chest lightly resulting in him coughing.

"Nothing, and what did you do to Miss Rong?" He gave Peng Lim a look as he saw a smile after.

"’She’ did something that moved me." Peng Lim answered as he and Su Rong were messing around.

Su Rong and Peng Lim were trying to get an agreement when she tried to use her sword on him which he dodged it. With Su Rong falling back on the stairs behind her, she caught Peng Lim's front collar part of the robe. Peng Lim had pulled her towards him as her lips were right on his lips. Su Rong saw that, she pushed him back while Peng Lim touched his lips.

"Rong, I didn't think you had the courage to kiss me." He smirked having her blush and rushing off making him follow behind her. That was when they met with Liu Gang and Xue Liang.

Xue Liang walked back to her manor but caught scent of Xue Yahui going into the forest. She was getting worried, as she ran off shifting into the forest. Sniffing the ground she caught his scent going further in.

She found him nearly at the edge of the cliff as she hurried. Before he jumped she had bit down onto his robe by the neck as she painted exhausted from the run. "Ahh!!!" Xue Yahui screamed seeing the tiger had gotten him. "Please don't eat me!!!" He was yelling making Xue Liang sigh in her head.

'Do people always say this when they see a creature like us?' She questioned in her head lifting him up. Dropping him down onto the grass floor, he looked to her but she looked back at him rubbing her head to his chest instead. He was still short and small which she just couldn't stop loving her little brothers.

"I don't want to go back." She heard her little brother say making her turn to see him. "Father, isn't my real father. Mother told me that I'm the son of Minister Nie. I don't want to believe it, but I don't deserve to be father's son!" Xue Yahui yelled with Xue Liang wrapping herself around him. He gasped seeing how affectionate she was to him. "Why was I born? I don't want to ruin our family. Father raised me and Li very much and loved us a lot. I can see how happy father is with his smile. I don't want to be a burden to father." He cried hugging onto her with Xue Liang allowing him lay down falling asleep on her soft belly fur.

'Little Yahui, you don't know how much sister loves you.' Xue Liang said in her head soon catching the scent of torches getting close. Getting closer she prepared herself, she was going to amaze all those who were about to see her for the first time. 'Yahui, big sister will protect you no matter what.' Rubbing her head against his head as he was sound asleep.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer, she turned her gaze to all of the men who stopped their tracks and stunned in one spot. Seeing Liu Gang, she didn't bother but rose up. Seeing her father in fear, he looked to Yahui as she stood up above him. She growled looking to them with a deadly gaze as if she was ready to attack any moment.

"Yahui!!!" Her father called Xue Yahui as he awoke hearing his father's voice.

"Father!" He said but in tears.
