Everyday I Get up to See the Villain Stealing the Show 86

Hua Xiaoshuang bypassed Han Changsheng and went to An Yuan. Han Changsheng subconsciously wanted to stop him but thought it was wrong. He felt torn about the whole thing.

Hua Xiaoshuang stood in front of An Yuan’s horse and looked up at him without speaking. He didn’t know what happened between Han Changsheng and An Yuan, so he didn’t speak for fear of saying something wrong. He looked at An Yuan with hesitant eyes and waited for him to speak first. 

An Yuan said, “That night… Why did you leave without saying goodbye?” 

It surprised Hua Xiaoshuang, but his face was calm. That night? Leave without saying goodbye? Han Changsheng left without saying goodbye and returned to An Yuan with his face made up like Luo Xin? There must have been a reason, otherwise, Han Changsheng wouldn’t have done so. He bit his lip and gave him an embarrassed expression. “I… I felt uneasy…” Why he felt uneasy depended on what An Yuan said next. 

An Yuan was startled. They fell into a state of tender-hearted speechlessness. 

Han Changsheng hurriedly scratched his ears and bit his cheek! Hua Xiaoshuang was a quick-thinking genius who could guess the situation clearly. If Hua Xiaoshuang wanted to mislead An Yuan, how could Han Changsheng not see it? However, the onlooker saw it all clearly, and while the parties involved could not. An Yuan didn’t know that the Hua Xiaoshuang in front of him was not the Hua Xiaoshuang that accompanied him in the past. Hua Xiaoshuang stopped talking, but a lot of words already filled An Yuan’s head!

Hua Xiaoshuang finally broke the silence. “How are you these days?” He saw that An Yuan looked haggard, so he asked.

Unexpectedly, the words hit An Yuan’s sore spot, and his eyes turned red. Over the past six months, he and Han Changsheng had been together day and night, and they already had feelings for each other. It wasn’t until that night, when something like that happened, that An Yuan discovered his feelings for Han Changsheng exceeded his imagination. If it were anyone else, even if they were possessed by Qi deviation and lost their mind and did such a thing to him, he would want to kill that person. But when Han Changsheng did it, he wasn’t angry with him in his heart. 

The thing that angered him the most was that Han Changsheng left without a word of explanation. However, after a few days, his anger had faded. He began to worry about whether something had happened to Han Changsheng. Did something happen as he was hunted down by his enemies? Was the demonic cult eager to call him back, was his bad brother dissatisfied with his actions… An Yuan even wanted to go out to the Xiushan Mountain to inquire about news about him. 

Now, the repulsive guy stood before him with good hands and feet and affectionately asked him if he was okay. 

An Yuan took a deep breath and spoke in a cold tone, “Okay.” 

In the past half a month, he was seriously ill under the “torture” of Han Changsheng. He almost lost a layer of skin. Of course, he had a bad time, but he didn’t intend to tell Hua Xiaoshuang.

Han Changsheng couldn’t bear it and interjected, “Hua Xiaosa, An Yuan. Are you going to stand here and talk?” 

“Where are you going?” Hua Xiaoshuang asked. 

“We’re going to the town ahead to rest and buy supplies,” Han Changsheng said.

Hua Xiaoshuang turned on his horse and said, “Let’s go, I’ll go with you.” 

Han Changsheng stared daggers at him. Hua Xiaoshuang was big trouble. He signaled for the man to leave immediately, but Hua Xiaoshuang turned a blind eye to his gaze. He glanced affectionately at An Yuan and bit his lip to stop him from saying, “I… I have a lot to say to you… I’ll come to see you tonight.” 

Han Changsheng almost ripped the horse’s rein apart. 

Together, the three rode towards the town. Han Changsheng deliberately slowed his horse. When An Yuan ran to the front, he rode to Hua Xiaoshuang and gave him a violent, powerful look. “You have to find a chance to leave, quickly.” 

Hua Xiaoshuang glanced at him. “Are you coming with me?”

Han Changsheng said, “No way!” 

An Yuan just happened to look back then, and Han Changsheng pretended to look at the scenery ahead. 

When An Yuan looked back, he said, “I have something to do, I will return when I finish.”

Hua Xiaoshuang sneered, “Are you really busy, or are you reluctant to give up the beauty? I heard you avenged for his father’s death?” 

Han Changsheng said, “I… I did not! Because the murderer claimed it was the Tianning Cult, I was furious. It just happened to conveniently avenge his father in passing…” 

Hua Xiaoshuang said, “Since you have discovered the person who pretended to be the Tianning Cult, what else do you have to do?” 

Han Changsheng didn’t dare tell him the truth, so he had to answer vaguely, “I… In a word, I’m really devoted to being the leader of the Tianning. I can’t explain it to you now. I’ll let you know when I’m done.” 

“Do you think I’m stupid?” Hua Xiaoshuang asked. 

“…” Han Changsheng looked at him sincerely. “I hope you are a little stupid.” 

Hua Xiaoshuang looked at him sincerely. “That’s a pity. You’d better change your hopes.” 

Han Changsheng: “…”

An Yuan suddenly slowed down and rode next to them.

Han Changsheng didn’t dare speak to anyone anymore. He could only give a meaningful look at Hua Xiaoshuang, who turned a blind eye to his nearly-cramped face.

Before long, the three arrived in town. 

Han Changsheng searched for an inn to ask for a room and soon returned. “The shopkeeper said there were only two vacant rooms in the inn. Otherwise, brother Hua…” 

Hua Xiaoshuang accepted his words with kindness. “Why don’t I stay with An Yuan? Brother Luo, you find another place to stay. We’ll meet again tomorrow.”

“……………………” Han Changsheng almost bit through one of his silver teeth in a quiet rage. He said, “Let’s find another inn with enough vacancies.” 

The three finally found an inn to stay in, with three rooms connected side by side. Han Changsheng thickened his face and rushed into the middle room to separate An Yuan and Hua Xiaoshuang. An Yuan and Hua Xiaoshuang only shrugged helplessly and went into their rooms to rest. 

Han Changsheng was restless in his room. From time to time, he would lie down at the door to listen for the sound of footsteps. It worried him that Hua Xiaoshuang or An Yuan would go to the other person’s room. 

After dark, he saw from the crack of the door that Hua Xiaoshuang had changed his clothes and gone to An Yuan’s room once he had bathed. Han Changsheng immediately turned to the windowsill, crawled outside An Yuan’s window, and squatted down to eavesdrop. 

Hua Xiaoshuang went into the room and sat down as An Yuan made him a cup of tea. He asked, “An Yuan, how did you meet brother Luo?” 

An Yuan was silent. Then, he asked, “Did you intend to talk about others when you came here?” 

Hua Xiaoshuang was stunned and stopped talking. 

An Yuan said, “When we met again today, you only saw him in your eyes. If he hadn’t called attention to me, you might not have noticed I was there at all.” 

“Er….” Hua Xiaoshuang was at a loss for words.

Han Changsheng felt like hundreds of claws were scratching his heart while eavesdropping outside the window. In fact, he didn’t dare see An Yuan again with that face. He was afraid that when An Yuan saw him, he’d be angry and draw his sword to fight with him. The kindness he had accumulated for the things he’d done for An Yuan couldn’t equate to the absurdity of that night. As soon as Hua Xiaoshuang appeared, he was afraid that An Yuan and Hua Xiaoshuang would fight each other. He couldn’t bear it if one of them got hurt, except An Yuan didn’t get angry. Not only did he not get angry, but his tone was sour. Did An Yuan suspect that Hua Xiaoshuang had a crush on Luo Xin? No, he suspected that Hua Xiaoshuang had lost interest in him… It’s not right. He was suspecting he was losing to Luo Xin… Ah! What a mess this relationship is!

An Yuan continued to be aggressive. “Since you want to talk about other people so much, let’s talk about him then, what is your relationship with brother Luo?” 

Even the clever Hua Xiaoshuang was at a loss. It was clear he came to inquire about An Yuan’s words from earlier that day. How did it change to An Yuan grilling him for information? After a while, he said, “Brother Luo is a good friend I have known for many years.” 

An Yuan’s mouth raised into a somewhat mocking smile. “And same with that Doctor Du?” 

Hua Xiaoshuang was surprised again. Doctor Du, there was no doubt that he was Du Yuefei, the leader of the Grass Hall of the Tianning Cult. Had An Yuan met Du Yuefei? No, Du Yuefei hadn’t left Xiushan Mountain for half a year. An Yuan couldn’t have seen him. Could it be that… Yes, it had to be Han Changsheng again! First himself, then Du Yuefei, then Luo Xin, what was Han Changsheng thinking? 

Hua Xiaoshuang faltered. “Yes… Doctor Du is an old friend.” 

An Yuan said, “So… Are you all from the same sect?”  He wanted to say the words “demonic cult” directly, but after thinking about it, he held back for fear that he would frighten the other party away again. 

Hua Xiaoshuang squinted, then suddenly got up to walk to the window. Han Changsheng was so scared that he quickly dwarfed himself for fear of being seen. Hua Xiaoshuang stopped at the window, looked out at the night, and asked in a melancholy voice, “Why did I leave that night… Do you remember what happened before that?” 

Hua Xiaoshuang avoided An Yuan’s question and was unwilling to hear An Yuan repeat himself. By asking questions like this, he regained the initiative and began to get An Yuan to talk. 

Han Changsheng’s foot lost its grip, and he almost fell from the roof. He covered his face with a terrible expression.

If he were any less educated, he would have rushed up to cover Hua Xiaoshuang’s head with a sack and beat him senseless. “You! I!” An Yuan brushed his sleeves back and gritted his teeth and said, “I haven’t been possessed by Qi deviation, and I haven’t lost my mind! You… You did that to me! Can I remember it?!” 

Qi deviation? Lost his mind? That kind of thing? Just walked away… The expression on Hua Xiaoshuang’s face changed rapidly. Fortunately, his back was to An Yuan, who couldn’t see his twisted expressions. Hua Xiaoshuang quickly regained his composure and spoke in a more melancholy tone, “You know that I was possessed and lost my mind. After doing that, I naturally couldn’t face you. When we got together today, you said that only brother Luo was in my eyes. That’s because I didn’t dare look at you. I was afraid that if I saw you, I would… I wouldn’t be able to control myself…” 

Han Changsheng beat his chest and feet in silence. 

An Yuan coldly said, “So you only dare to face me with your back now?” 

Hua Xiaoshuang slowly turned around. 

An Yuan looked into his eyes and said in a slow voice, “You’ve concealed too much from me, and I never forced you to answer. You taught me martial arts and discovered the real person behind my father’s murder. Although I never said thank you, I remember it all in my heart. I helped you exercise your skills and regulate your internal flow. I helped you conquer your powerful internal skill. You might think I was repaying you. Indeed, I was touched and wanted to do something for you. That was what I could do, but it wasn’t enough to repay your kindness to me. So…” An Yuan took a deep breath and said, “Even if you did that thing to me, you don’t have to feel that you owe me. It was not something you did while you were in control of yourself. If you want to forget, then forget it. I won’t hold it in my heart.” 

Han Changsheng listened to this and held his breath nervously. So, that’s what An Yuan thought? He was not at all angry? Or did he still hold back that he was angry? Could he really absolve that kind of thing lightly?

He heard Hua Xiaoshuang excitedly say, “How can you say that! My heart is for you, don’t you know?” 

Han Changsheng almost fell from the windowsill. Don’t confess to him so easily, bastard!
