The Ten Promises With My Master Chapter 4

*Note: there's a character which the author has given many names to (and I have no idea if it's typo), his name is [ Bastt/Sbart] but people tend to call him "Unk" (short for uncle)

The elevator continue rising, at every floor, ShaoZe will reach his hand out to scan his electronic watch, but he never once step out of the elevator——However, Ruan Xiang Yuan manage to find out something interesting, as the elevator rise, the floor area remains unchanged, but the cells became lesser. The first floor, from the look of it, seems to have around thirty prison cells, the twenty-nine floor, on the hand, has clearly only three cells.

There's no doubt how s.p.a.cious the cell rooms can be.

When the elevator reached the third highest floor, the public's face prison guard scanned his electronic watch to open the prison gates like what he had been doing, but he did not rush off like before.

Next, Ruan Xiang Yuan still hanging onto prison guard's hand, gradually increases his shock level as he realises how shallow his insight was. In the past few decades, he would never imagine that such a prison exists. The harmonious atmosphere between the prisoners and the prison guard was beyond words——At the sound of the prison door's opening and the sound of bare feet walking on the marble floor, ShaoZe's hand remained on the elevator's "open" b.u.t.ton, and even lean on the elevator's door to chat with the lazy looking muscle guy who just walked out of the prison cell. In a way that could not be more casual.

The muscle guy seems familiar with ShaoZe, he looks like he's in his thirties or forties, he's only wearing a simple tank top when he walks out of the cell, stretching and yawing as he walks. A Ruan Xiang Yuan swing his tail from side to side, when he fixed his eyes on the crisscross scar on his back, the mid-age Unk land his eyes on the puppy's head too.

"Ooh Sbart, are your injuries healed?" ShaoZe asked the mid-age man casually.

Unk paused, he nod with his smile unchanged: "It's all healed up, was just a scratch on the arm anyway… Ah, speaking of which, teenagers nowadays are getting stronger, I don't even know when I'll end up being replace by the ones below——"

ShaoZe stunned, a trace of unhappiness appears on his face: "Don't say this kind of stuff, you are fine living here on the twenty-ninth floor, no one can threaten you within the next three years. Not to mention, there's Reche, no one wants to mess with him——”

There's probably no one in this world that can stand ShaoZe's grandma nagging attribute. The guy infront is already showing an unbearable expression and resolute to change the conversation——

"Is this what Reche requested?" Unk grinned as he reaches his hand to Ruan XIang Yuan, ruffling in between his ears, he's using too much force, the thick callus can be felt even through the fur. Ruan Xiang Yuan shake his head, he can hear a gruff laughter over his head "That guy's interest is getting weirder. I told him way before that I can find a pretty boy downstairs, so he can just use them. Tch, can't believe he refuse me."

"This is the little fella, AHHHHH, now that you say it. The most tiring one would be me alright, why do I have to be the one to take care of that horrible monster with terrible character! —— Also, I'm surprised too, it's a first that I hear a [king] requesting something alive to be sent in here…"

King? What is that… hearing the keyword, the puppy raises his head and sniffled.

Bastt: "This lil'fella seems like he gets the words."

Ruan Xiang Yuan: … Lao ZI obviously can understand, don't look down on dogs!

"——Eli isn't happy, towards all this keeping a pet stuff. But since it didn't violate any rules, it's permitted under the [King]'s authority." Towards this friend that goes beyond age, ShaoZe's public face finally showed a trace of smile, he continued with something that the puppy did't half understand and lifted the puppy hanging on his hand, raising his paw while ignoring his struggle, he waved it to Unk "Puppy come say h.e.l.lo to Uncle Bastt, the former mercenary of the wild wolf group——"

Bastt took Ruan Xiang Yuan and turn him over, rubbing his soft belly——

Ruan Xiang Yuan was flipped with his four limbs now facing the sky, the wobbly four limbs kick in the air, he gasped twice. He doesn't dislike this Unk. If only this Unk wasn't rubbing him with such a force, he wants to puke… Oi, Unk, this is the liver, not the tummy! Im gonna puke on your face oh! Stop!!

As if he finally notices that the puppy's action is more of struggling then enjoying, Bastt pause and let the puppy go in dismay. He leant onto the elevator as he strokes down Ruan Xiang Yuan's back, he lazily said "ShaoZe, when can you change this habit of nagging to yourself? You look crazy."

ShaoZe's smile drop, he s.n.a.t.c.hes Ruan Xiang Yuan back, and snapped "Not your concern!"

Before the elevator's door close Bastt reach out his hand with a grin, and stroke ShaoZe's hair just like how he did with Ruan Xiang Yuan's back.

Then the elevator close infront of the dog and the person, Unk Bastt's smile disappear behind the closing metallic door.

 "Aoof?"

s.h.i.+t, such a "close knitted" relations.h.i.+p between the military and the people1.

The elevator stops at the highest floor —— in other words, the thirty-first floor.

This floor can't even be called a prison anymore. As the door open, Ruan Xiang Yuan even mistake that he had entered the president suite in a hotel —— the walkway is still the same polished pattern marble floor, but in the middle of this walkway lay a thick layer of white animal mat. And at the end of the walkway sits the only room in this whole floor, the firm, gorgeous jail door,there's a 'z' connecting to it.

Only the blinking red light on a monitor by the door remind one that it's still a prison.

"—— Alright, We're home!" ShaoZe grinned, scratching under the puppy's chin.

You already said that when we got off of the car at the gate of Jue Chi Guan, you fool.

The puppy rolled his eyes at the guard who's grinning blissfully, pus.h.i.+ng his finger with his paw in annoyance. The rejected prison guard paused before he sulkily smiled and inexplicably murmur something like "Definitely his dog". He took off his shoe obediently and cautiously stepped onto the white carpet with his bare white feat. The arrogant look he had on all the time is now gone, he couldn't help but reveal his cautions towards this place.

…Dude, are you going to meet a prisoner or the president of the country?

Ruan Xiang Yuan exhale to express his dissatisfaction towards his ride.

SaoZe walks out of the elevator. This time, he didn't scan the monitor with his electronic watch. Ruan Xiang Yuan stretched his neck to scan around, and he realizes, here on the top floor, contains no equipment to open the prison door like before. The public face, with the puppy in his arm, took a few more steps, reaching the end of the hallway. Finally noticing the monitor with the blinking red light. Lifting the puppy that is sliding down, the prison guard mumbled "Eh? Unexpectedly not in the prison huh?"

Ruan Xiang Yuan: ……

Eh? What do you mean Eh? What's with this questionable tone? What is with the "unexpectedly" "not in" the prison —— Are you really a prison Guard, Huh, Public face?
So the prison living in the top floor is not bound by the Prison Guard's restriction, is that it? How is that possible! What kind of prison is this —— it's just like those in the movies or novel alright…

But… Forget it…, As ShaoZe holds him in his arm and tiptoed deeper down into the walkway, Ruan Xiang Yuan calmed down and mocked, Lao Zi is here now, as a dog. What else is there to be surprise of?

He lay in ShaoZe's embrace in comfort, the fluffy ears twitch, he can hear a faint hitting sound coming from the room beside the prison cell, going "peng peng". As if someone is punching something with all his force, Ruan Xiang Yuan looks up at ShaoZe and find that he is not reacting to the sound. On a second thought, dog's ears are more sensitive than humans.

Just as expected, after another few more steps, the muscles from the public's face clearly relaxed as he showed a sign of relieve.

As if he knew what the owner is doing in the room, the prison guard did not check the main cell for the person but detour to the room beside. Then, like a thief, he sneakily push the already opened metal door ——

It's a room filled with gym equipment.

There's only one tall man the room. He looks younger than anyone can imagine, he's especially well-built and is easily over 1.9 meter. The lines and muscles on his body shows how he is not one to be messed with —— His hair is outstandingly red, wild red. Glittering sweats can be seen falling from the tip of the hair whenever he hit a heavy straight at the sandbag infront of him.

"Rechee."

ShaoZe stand by the gym's door as he calls out the name.

In the gym, the named man clearly does not care. Not even bothering to look back, all he did was pause before he swings his firm long leg up. While ShaoZe rolled his eyes like he expected this situation, Rechee uses his right leg to support his frontal weight, ankle swiftly turned 180-degree, jump. Landed with his left leg as his right leg kick the very moment it raises, towards the swaying sandbag infront of him.

Pa——

Pss——

The spot that was kicked starts to crack, sands starts flowing out from the sand bag as if flowing out of a shattered hourgla.s.s

ShaoZe "…"

Ruan Xiang Yuan "…"

"Get someone to clean this up."

The deep, magnetic voice appears to be husky.

The man wipe away the sweat on his head before turning and make his way to the door slowly—— There's a lack of expression on his face, as he make his way here, he takes off the white gauze that had been around his hand, round and round, the white gauze is being taken off and thrown on the ground casually.

Then the mixture of his hormones and sweat swamp right up to Ruan Xiang Yuan like a tornado. His vision blurred, a pair of big hot hand swiped him up from ShaoZe;s embrace —— The man is clearly the type that doesn't know how to hold a dog, he simply clammed the puppy under its arm with his clumsy big hands, raising him to his eyelevel…

His hind legs swing in mid-air while the other two paws find themselves on the sweaty hands helplessly. Just like that, Ruan Xiang Yuan stares at Rechee's handsome face which seems like a perfect artwork that is at the same time filled with a demanding and rebellious aura, moving closer towards him.

This is how he and Rechee first met.

Ruan Xiang Yuan would never forget that feeling. When he, at that time, as a dog, first made an eye contact with Rechee —— the kind of oppression where every strand of hair and every pore seems to be violated. Almost causing him to forget how the heart in his chest function.

Sparks fly in the air.

On the other hand, Rechee, with his pair of eyes that is bluer than any ocean or sky or whatsoever, scan the puppy in his hands. His thin lips purse, calmly, as if talking to himself, mumbled "Male?"

"…… Aooofff."

——see, see what see! Never see a serge with fur before meh!

If it is possible, Ruan Xiang Yuan wants to tell this handsome man, staring at other's serge when they meet for the first time, is extremely rude.

The "close knitted" relations.h.i.+p is actually Ruan Xiang Yuan being sarcastic about how rich the prison looks.
