Bab 142: I Am Not Ready

["Ah Yue, one day I will not be by your side. What will you do then?"

He paused from playing with his lover's fingers, pressing their rings together. Arms around his from behind as he leaned into the warmth. Sitting as they watched the plum blossoms bloom, emitting their natural scent.

"If you are not by my side, I would rather die than live without you."

He felt a kiss to the back of his head.

"I need you to live on."

"Ah Li, why do you ask me this? Do you not wish to be beside me any longer?"

Wang Li pressed closer to him and wrapped his arms tighter.

"There is no lifetime that I do not wish to be beside you, my love." He turned and kissed his king who deepened it. Large palm cradled his face and he blinked softly at his husband.

"My heart is forever yours, Ah Yue," Wang Li whispered, "No matter what happens or where I go, you are my only path."
