Capítulo 8: Chapter 8 - My man
Jian woke up trembling violently. His whole body was frozen, even a few hair strands froze up into icicles.
"Oh, the little alien is up~"
Startled, he gazed at the grill gate. The guard stood there with a grin. "it's time to eat~"
"Come here, how long can you starve yourself ah. come eat…" The guard lewdly peered at his body.
Jian hurriedly hid in the corner, hugging himself tight. 'it's him again….' he gritted his teeth inaudibly.
"Hey, are you deaf!" the man slammed the gate hard.
Jian trembled slightly. 'no... don't come in...'
the guard frustratingly grumbled. "Fuck…. do as you wish." he poured the bowl of gruel and walked off, grumbling and cussing out loud.
Jian vigilantly listened to the sounds of his hurried footsteps. he did not move from the corner until the man disappeared.
Only then did he relax.
He had no clue how long he had been down here. But that guard would occasionally come in and pour cold water over him and jeer at him. But weirdly the man did not step into his cell which was a relief to him.
The guard did not have good intentions about him, I can see it.
He licked his cracked lips.
He did not have the energy to think about anything. He blankly gazed at the ugly ceiling, filled with cobwebs and spider webs. a small spider was seen stalking a moth. but the small creature did not even know the danger was flying close to the cobwebs.
even when the spider moved closer and closer the moth did not move.
Jian blinked.
he too was like that moth
He did not have the will to live.
Jian gently touched his sinking belly. 'It will only take a few days… I don't have to suffer any longer.' He closed his eyes with a small chuckle. He had been so stupid.
All along he thought his brother was the only one who treated him well... but… but Bian hated him.
Initially, he did not believe a word his brother was sprouting but the moment he saw the disgust and hatred shining in Bian's eyes it finally sank in. his younger brother never liked him.
Jian dully gazed at the spider that had successfully captured the moth and was slowly devouring it.
All those times Bian smiled at him, helped him, it was all… pretense. his brother was like that spider, built a web of lies and waited patiently and finally.... he managed to devour him. and he was that stupid moth flying close to danger like a brainless idiot.
"He…. he never liked me…... did he?"
no one did. even his grandparents hated him.
"Because they knew… I was not their kind..." he touched his forehead. Puss seeped out, coating his fingertips. "I have a birth certificate... I was born here… I am human." He whispered as if trying to convince himself.
but that gemstone that Bian ripped out of his forehead was direct proof that he was indeed an alien.
An alien.
Jian chunked hugging his wallow cheeks. "No wonder…. I was just an unwanted burden tossed at them."
A soft instrument sound suddenly filled his dark cell.
Jian sat up with difficulty. Closing his eyes, he enjoyed the beautiful melody. He did not know what instrument it was... but it sounded very calming.
Soon the calming sound changed to a familiar piano tune.
It was a tune he was very familiar with.
A wedding tune.
Jian's smile faded away. Bian's words suddenly ran through his mind. 'Do you know I'm going to be marrying your fated man Xing Yu'
Jian scoffed. the alien general Xing Yu was quite famous But he was not his man.
but he did not know why…...There was a weird sense of loss at the thought of this marriage.
Jian gently massaged his chest.
Suddenly the familiar sound of footsteps moved close and along with it came the sound of jingling keys. Jian hurriedly scurried to the corner and balled himself.
"Finally, I get to have you." The familiar guard licked his lips disgustingly.
Jian felt his heart stop at that moment. 'No… I don't want this…. no…'
****
Bian smirked after he got the confirmation message.
"That eyesore will be gone..." He chuckled touching his forehead. There was a subtle bulge there now. The Jeda that was torn off from Jian was surgically placed in his forehead.
But weirdly he did not get any magical powers as stated in the novel.
He frowned, peering at his reflection. 'it's okay... I will gain my powers soon. In the novel, Jian got his powers only after he was married to Xing and after they did the deed.' He gritted his teeth. 'Fuck I can't image him with my Xing.'
"Bian." Wang Bushen walked in standing behind him with a stern look. "Why are you taking so long?"
"Father..." Bian grinned at him through the reflection. "I was just checking if everything was good." he adjusted his white tuxedo. "Is the groom ready?"
"Hmm..." wang held out his hand. "The emperor is here."
Bian froze.
"Calm down, the surgery was successful. even the emperor will not find out." He assured him.
Only then did Bian let out a sigh of relief. "that's good."
They both walked out into the extravagant garden. The whole place was covered in white roses and lilies. The guests all gazed back at him with smiling faces.
But Bian could only look at one person.
His Xing Yu was standing at the altar looking at him. His cold green eyes peered at him and small whisps of white hair fluttered softly by his ears.
he looked like a mythical forest elf.
Bian bit his lips, holding back his huge grin. 'He is mine… he is finally mine. I am finally the protagonist…'
When they got close, wang placed his hand on Xing's extended palm.
Bian gripped his hand softly. 'This man… he is my dream come true.'
He was just a poor college student when he started to read the book 'the fated love'. it was highly revered and raved by all. He had just picked it up out of curiosity. But the more he read, the more he was obsessed. The one person who made him feel things was Xing, the alien general and the protagonist of the story. Everything about him made his heart pound.
But it also made him hate Jian to the core. The weak crybaby protagonist would only cling to Xing. He did not have a personality of his own yet he still got his happily ever after,
'No, in this life he did not. I did. I got my happily ever after. Only I can have Xing.' He shyly ginned up at him.
