"l Ba Lixin" Ba Lixin heard a voice like his master's so he raised his head and glanced around him remembering that this was the day he became the personal guard to the 2 prince of the Lie Shang empire, 'am reborn 'he said and tears started rolling from his eyes making San Lang bend down on half knee wiping his tear away "U do not wish to serve me" San Lang asked and Ba Lixin shook his head "I am honored to serve you" Ba Lixin said 'and I am making sure u don't die this time 'he added inwardly "Since all of u have chosen your guards u may leave"King Ruoxin said and all the princes went to their villas.

"Do forgive my villa it's a little broken down "San Lang said scratching the back of his neck in embarrassment since the villa was broken down with a lot of grass "If u wish to leave u can"San Lang added and Ba Lixin went backwards from the forest because the Villa was located in the forest till he was no longer view"Well it looks like am on my own then" San Lang said disappointed and got his sword out clearing a path towards the villa's door,so by the time he reached in huffs"Think I'll have to fix it first"he said then a lot of wood fell behind him startling him a little only to see it was Ba Lixin"Aren't u supposed to leave "San Lang asked and Ba Lixin shook his head"The master should find a comfortable place to sit as l work" Xiao Ba said and San Lang shook his head"Let me help u, plus if l don't people may start to think am mistreating you " San Lang said and Ba Lixin did consider that becoz the man was taller and look more muscular but he too had a lot of strength just that his body looked a little more delicate,so he and the prince started fixing the cracked wall,blown out roof clearing the long grass, dusting the inside, repairing the broken furniture and everything thing till the ugly looking deserted villa transformed into a aleast presentable villa till San Lang's stomach grumbles due to hungry"Looks like am stomach finally hunger "San Lang said in an embrassed way scratching the side of his noise and Ba Lixin gave him some apples"You may have to eat this for now but u will get a better meal tomorrow "Ba Lixin said 'Poor prince has been leaving like this since his mother died at birth and was even sent here while the other princes have expensive villa and maids 'Ba Lixin added silently as San Lang accepted the apple but slice it into half since he was also thinking about his new guard, after eating the apple both went to different room and slept waiting for tomorrow where they can continue to fix the rest of the villa tomorrow

Ba Lixin woke up early then went to the forest to collect some fruits,vegetables and other things which he was going to use for fixing the unfinished parts of the villa then he a healthy breakfast of fresh fruits and vegetables for the 3rd Prince , "Good morning"San Lang said while yawning then he sat at the dinning as Ba Lixin brought the tea breakfast Infront of him "You made this"San Lang asked and Ba Lixin nodded (if you guys are curious about how Ba Lixin and San Lang look like,go to the cover picture and see the photos with the taller being San Lang then the shorter one Ba Lixin) So San Lang ate the breakfast quick then went and sat next to his fishpond playing with the fish using his sword till he got bore "Is there anything things fun we can do"San Lang asked "perhaps I can go to the palace and get his majesty some exciting things to read" Ba Lixin said"That's a good idea since l left my things in the palace we can go get them here right"San Lang said and Ba Lixin nodded then the two of them each claimed on their sword and headed to the palace finding the King and his wife plus princes having a feast "The 3rd prince is here ur highness" some guard reported and the King signal them to let the prince enter, when the prince and Ba Lixin entered into the dining hall they greeted the king"What brings u here "the king asked displeased"I have just come to take whatever belongings l left" San Lang said "Then u may take all ur belongings plus carriage and two horses "the king said and San Lang and Ba Lixin went to the San Lang's room collected all his stuff not leaving one making Ba Lixin find out that the prince was actually able to go to the town repairing earnings a lot of money infact the carriage was too full "I think we've got every-"before San Lang could finish he bent down removing a neat looking box"Now we got everything, let's go"San Lang said then he climbed on one of the horses as Ba Lixin rode the carriage with the other, after arriving they unpacked everything thing putting them in the right position"Master may this guard go get some food material from the town "Ba Lixin asked"U do know that u are free to leave me if u want to "San Lang said"Ur highness am never leaving ur side till l die" Ba Lixin said wholeheartedly"You don't have to pity me I can manage to stay on my own so should l tell father to give u a different job in the palace"San Lang asked and Ba Lixin snapped "Am going to stay by your side until the very end so don't try pushing me away"he said with fury and determination in his eyes 'And l owe u my life 'added inwardly, 'Pfff' the prince started laughing confusing Ba Lixin"What's the matter ur highness"Ba Lixin asked "U look so cute when u're annoyed l couldn't help it"San Lang said still laughing making Ba Lixin face flush red 'Why is my face suddenly hot at being called cute'Ba Lixin though "And now that it's flushed red u're more cute"San Lang said "Stop teasing me"Ba Lixin said covering his face as San Lang Smirk,he never how fun it to tease some one but now he did and he enjoys it alot

Two months passed with the prince teasing Ba Lixin but the two got along well, it just happen that Ba Lixin remembered that it was the 1st prince's birthday and this is when his master would fall for her 'This is the day master meets the heroin Lin Shi, should l help him win her over or avoid her 'Ba Lixin though then some hands wrapped around his waist with a face buried in his neck making him flush red slightly trembling "Master w-what are u doing"he asked but the prince just sniffed him making his body tremble more "M-master are u a light"he asked again "Yes, l just woke up not finding u on ur bed making me worried" San Lang said after breaking into Ba Lixin's room claiming to supervise his safety "Then co-could u let me go"Ba Lixin asked but San Lang tighten his grip more "No,let me enjoy ur nice scent more"San Lang said sniffing more deeply like Ba Lixin was a drug making the poor guy tremble more with his face bright red 'Fuck l never knew my neck was so sensitive 'Ba Lixin screamed internally 'Bang' 'bang' 'bang' they heard a knock at the gate making San Lang annoyed and Ba Lixin able to remove him self from the grip"Let me check it out "Ba Lixin said running away and San Lang rubbed his brow annoyed 'Who dates destroy my peaceful moment,l MUST KILL HIM 'San Lang though but went to the gate seeing Mio Li the 1st prince's guard"What are u doing here "San Lang asked displeased but the poor guard only bow his head"To day is crown prince's birthday day and u are summoned to the palace"Mio Li said "Then tell him am not going" San Lang said "But the king -"before Mio Li could finish "The prince will arrive,u may go ahead"Ba Lixin said so Mio Li bow and left "I don't want to go"San Lang said "The king ordered it and u might even find something thing or one interesting there" Ba Lixin said "U are the only interested person l wish to have" San Lang murmured "Did u say anything"Ba Lixin asked "No" San Lang responded "Ok, what gift are u talking the crown prince"Ba Lixin asked "I don't know and does he even deserve a gift from me, they're busy enjoying luxury but l had to work for ours"San Lang said "Ours"Ba Lixin asked"Yes ours as in San Lang and Xaio Ba's"San Lang said 'Master is so kind even saying that the wealth belongs to me and to think l made him surfer before 'Ba Lixin though but said"This wealth can only be considered ur since am just a servant prince " "Or how l hate it when u call me prince and urself a servant Xiao Ba, just call me San Lang"San Lang said "We'll be late, let's go fast prince San Lang"Ba Lixin said "Next time drop the title and u owe me for having to attend the party "San Lang said bringing his face close to Ba Lixin causing the poor guy's face to heat up "What thing can l ever use to repay u"Ba Lixin asked"U will find out "whispered in to his ear making him tremble from San Lang's
