Chapter 39: 2.12 Third Small Star [End] – Unknown

Xing Ran was tortured for three days under Wan Lengya's orders before getting thrown to jail. Hei Xue had sued him for attempted murder twice.

After he was judged life imprisonment, Wan Lengya prepared him a gift as he stayed inside the prison. His inmates took turns in torturing him, even becoming their sex slave. The warden ignores his cries of help and even when he tried to kill himself someone was there to stop him even plugging his mouth to avoid suicide through biting his tongue.

He lives his prison life worse than animals to be slaughtered. At least those animals can only suffer for a bit before dying while he on the other hand cannot die even if he wanted to. He cannot even starve himself to death and watch the others play with his body. His last straw of hope ended when Wan Lengya visited him once in jail.

When the man saw his devastating state, he only spoke a few words.

Emotionlessly stares at him like he is not a living thing. Aloof and indifference, like a king looking down upon a sinner who had gone against his decree.

With a deep and icy voice, "Still alive?" Wan Lengya asked, imperturbable.

Once Xing Ran heard those words, he was struck with realization. He had always hated Hei Xue for taking this person from him. He thought that his suffering in jail was all Hei Xue's doing, but only now that he knows that he was wrong.

The person who caused him this endless despair, not even allowing him to end his suffering through death, is none other than this man whom he wanted to give his everything to. Tears of skepticism and agonizing pain hit his soul as he stared at Wan Lengya in front of him separated with only a wall of glass.

With his eyes reddening in madness, he questioned that god like, cold hearted man in front of him. His scarlet eyes showing insanity, sorrowful love, and doubt.

"Why!?" asked Xing Ran as he stood up from his seat while banging the glass wall even forcing the guards to force him back to his seat.

He watched as those cold silver eyes looked at him with contempt and fury. He could even feel the cold aura surrounding Wan Lengya as he stared at him like dirt. When he saw those silver eyes turning to pitch black and an evil smirk appeared on Lengya's lips that he felt a terrifying aura choking him.

"You've wanted to harm my baby thrice! Do you really think I am that forgiving? I want you to suffer, despair until the normal ending of your lifespan. Hm~ looking through your soul age you will still live a long life of 60 more years. Enjoy the hell this King personally prepared for you alright. Those demon imps I've left will take good care of you. Little thing~"

When Xing Ran saw Lengya's current appearance he couldn't stop himself from trembling that he even peed in his pants. He felt endless despair and horror when he looked into the man's dark eyes in front of him. He felt that he was nothing but a shameless bug in front of this man and he knew that this man who wore the face of Wan Lengya is not the same person.

With a hoarse, shaking voice, "Both you and that man who wears Wu Xue's face!? W-W-Who… a-are… you?!" asked Xing Ran with his whole being filled with terrorizing feelings like he is before death itself but wasn't accepted at all.

But Wan Lengya's black eyes had long returned to his normal silver eyes and gave him his normal cold face as if what Xing Ran had seen before were all his imagination, "I'm Hei's beloved man." He answered before taking his leave ignoring the screaming lunatic behind him.

After that day, Xing Ran had gone crazy, but his punishment continued until after he took his last breath at the age of 84.

On the same day, Wan Lengya followed his beloved, Hei Xue in France to meet his Grandma Dowager and Uncle Emperor in laws. At first the two didn't accept him welcoming. Only his Aunt Male Empress welcomed him with a smile.

It seems that his in-laws knew what happened 5 years ago when they divorced once, and they just couldn't accept him easily when they heard the latest report that he failed to protect Hei Xue twice already. He had to spend one whole month convincing the two doting in-laws before he got them to agree and let Hei Xue marry him.

After learning that Hei Xue was the only remaining direct royal descendant of the Hei Royal family, Wan Lengya didn't think they would agree to their marriage. Since they are both men. Like Uncle Emperor and Aunt Empress, they will not be able to have a child in the future.

Only when his wife explained that he had discovered an Artificial Birthing Method through Artificial Womb, allowing same sex couple to have babies through artificial method that he understood that the Hei Royal Lineage will not end with them.

After getting the permission of the Royal Family, Wan Lengya who left his clan was adopted to the Hei Royal family having a king reputation the same as his wife. Well he just adopted his wife's name instead. While the wedding preparation was made, a live broadcast of their engagement was shown through the world, dubbing them as a Royal Couple.

Their union caused envy and commotion in the world with both Wu and Wan Clan despairing as they were the clan that let these couples go when they were still with them. During the wedding only a few private guests were invited. The Hei Royal family, Hei Yu, Yue Wuya and the professors of Hei Conservatoire formerly called Wu Wan Conservatoire.

Few highlighted musicians and celebrities were invited as well. While only Lady Wan and her husband was invited from Wan Clan as they were still Wan Lengya's birth parents. Once Lady Wan met Hei Xue after all these years she couldn't help but beg for the latter's forgiveness. After all it was her fault that the divorce was settled that time. Thought it was Xing Ran who secretly convinced her to make his son divorce Hei Xue.

Hei Xue reluctantly forgave her after his husband appeased him a few more times. Their wedding may be a private one, but it was done live and broadcasted around the world. In jail, the warden forced Xing Ran to watch the whole wedding process, making him scream the whole day, like a pig being slaughtered. Only until the warden had enough of his screams and cut off his tongue.

After the wedding, the two enjoyed their honeymoon and roamed around the world, following them were the other pair of married couples, Yue Wuya and Hei Yu, who acted as their aides the whole time. This royal couple was considered a legend in the music industry. They accumulated almost all the possible awards in the music world.

Almost everyone of all ages knows who they were. They retired at the age of 60 and enjoyed a silent and secluded life until the end of their lifespan at the age of 88.

The first one to leave this time is Wan Lengya. Afraid that his wife will cry himself to death, he asked him to come with him which Hei Xue agreed without hesitation.

After Hei Xue informed the current Emperor, their nephew from the Hei Royal Family that he will follow after his husband. When he saw Lengya closed his eyes while his arms were still wrapped around him, the usual sadness from before started to fill his heart once again. Only when he remembered their promise to meet each other again in their next life, that Xue controlled the madness within him. Calming down instantly and prepares to take his leave.

[Host. He is gone.]

"I know."

With his eyes filled with tears he gave his husband's cold lips one last kiss.

"I will see you again soon. My Husband. Exe, let's leave!"

Hei Xue ordered before closing his eyes and wrapping his hands around his husband's waist allowing his system to remove his soul from this star returning into that lonely galaxy space where he didn't stay that long. As he knows that his beloved will not be in that world.
