Manor

In front of a pure white piano.

Looking at Hei Xue's figure playing the piano.

Watching that beautiful slender back of his love, his emotions had undergone changes from immense pain, regret, remorse to unshakeable determination and passionate love. Wan Lengya made his decision, he would stay by this person's side despite the latter's hate and impassiveness.

Giving this person all of his tenderness, care, and love even if the person itself never returned his feelings as long… As long as this person, he loves with all his life, stays by his side. That much is enough for him. As if remembering something Wan Lengya left the practice room to get a small blanket from the bedroom and returned to continue listening to Hei Xue's playing.

This person has always been afraid of the cold. So he must get something to warm him up as he couldn't hug him. At least not yet. It took a while until Hei Xue's playing finished and noticed the latter's presence with the room. He looks back to stare at the other presence in the room. Looking at Wan Lengya without any emotion imprinted on his face.

Watching the latter as if he is a stranger barging into his practice time. Wan Lengya just smiled at him as if not seeing his wife's distant expression. Walk towards him without hesitation and drape the small blanket he took from the bedroom to Hei Xue's back.

Carefully covering Hei Xue with the blanket until he was satisfied with his work.

Trying his best to mellow his voice as he spoke, "I'll be cooking dinner. Is there something you wish to eat?" asked Wan Lengya to Hei Xue.

Staring at Lengya with bewildered face, he still gave him an answer, "Pasta." Replied Hei Xue.

A small smile appeared from the corner of that cold man's lips, "Okay. You can play a few more pieces. I'll call you when dinner is ready." Said Wan Lengya before heading to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

[Host, the protagonist shou had gone crazy. You should watch this.]

'I'll watch the recordings later. Continue recording for now. About my husband, record his movements only when he is out of my sight.'

[Understood, Host.]

In the evening during dinner, the married couple, Hei Yu and Yue Wuya dropped by to send Hei Xue his clothes and other things. Wan Lengya didn't force him to sleep in the master's bedroom instead he prepared another room in the manor for Hei Xue to stay in.

Eating dinner together, the married couple [Hei Yu and Yue Wuya] left right away after half an hour after eating. Leaving the two to have their own privacy. On the other hand, Xing Ran in his own place made a mess in his room.

With few things broken and scattered around the place, the place can only be explained in one word: Disaster. As if a storm had broken through the room, destroying everything in its path, leaving only the traces of a destruction. In the middle of that room is Xing Ran, losing all his demure, with his face completely black in madness.

His hands gripping his hair in anguish, rage, and abhorrence.

"Who the hell is that man!? Hei Xue from France! Hump! So, What!? If I can destroy his wife, I could do so with you too!!! He is mine! He can only be mine. Wan Lengya you are mine!!!" said Xing Ran in his midst of madness.

His mind is full of chaotic ideas and his obsession towards the king of music is had already gone beyond the normal measure. In his mind Wan Lengya is his possession no one else is supposed to have him except from him. This kind of obsession. 

Our System, Executioner 13 who was watching and recording in the corner could only react in this way: '[Woa~ this little human is crazier than I thought. He dared to covet my Host's man! Does this thing not want to live anymore!?]'

---

2 years have passed since Hei Xue became the king's assistant professor.

Within those years, the former couple had spent most of their time together. Greeting each other: Good Morning and Good Night. Eating three meals together every day. Even spending their free time practicing piano as a pair. During these passed years, Wan Lengya had treated Hei Xue as his queen, pampering and doting him endlessly, wishing for almost nothing except for him not leaving his side.

Eventually, Hei Xue's anger lessened and slowly forgave his husband. Hei Xue no longer treated Wan Lengya as a stranger. He treats him more than a friend but nothing beyond that. Hei Xue still hasn't given Wan Lengya his full trust. It's not that he is not willing to trust him again, but he is just afraid of betrayal for the second time.

Hei Xue became infamous for his eccentric ways of teaching. He doesn't go to his designated classrooms, instead he tasks his students to look for him all over the conservatoire and the students who find him could ask him to play any music piece(s) they wanted to learn and they would be taught until they could play it on their own.

Moreover, after hearing his singing voice once during one of the school events, students not only in the Instrumental Music department but also from the Choir and Musical Department wish to attend his classes. The students will have to look for him all over the conservatoire to receive his lessons and Lengya will have to look all over the same way just to send his food and stuff.

With his overwhelming talents in music, he could play any music piece and instruments that he became the most sought professor in the conservatoire, even surpassing Lengya, by the students and other professors.

While in those months that passed almost everyone had witnessed their King's servile gestures towards him. Serving him food, preparing coats and blankets during cold days and cold drinks were prepared during hot days, personally made by the King of Music.

With his undeniable talents that could match the King of Music, he was titled as the Evil Fairy within the music world with others calling him Queen in secret. During that time, Hei Xue softened his heart and started to show slight acceptance to Wan Lengya's feelings, slowly regaining the former's trust once again waiting for the latter to accept his love one more time.

Afternoon, within the greenhouse forest, the students had caught Hei Xue sleeping under the tree in the middle of the day. It seems that he escaped from morning lessons leaving it all for Wan Lengya to handle and so during their break the students decided to look for this vanishing assistant professor of theirs and dragged him for afternoon lessons by the orders of the king.

Within the Conservatoire, there are greenhouse gardens which had venues and few instruments prepared for the professors to use during their lessons. There are professors who bring their students out for practical image training and so there are few pianos and instruments scattered all around the land of their conservatoire, and this ordinary grand piano within the greenhouse forest is one of them.

"Professeur Fee [Professor Fairy in French]! Please wake up Professeur Fee!" The students said as they tried to wake up their professor who was sleeping under a tree.

Yawning as he woke up, "Hm~ It's Professor Xing's students, who found me this time." Said Hei Xue who just woke up from his slumber.

With those excited 3 students surrounding him holding the same piano piece in their hands they were looking at Hei Xue with a sparkling gaze. It is not hard to understand that this class wanted this Fairy Professor to play that piece for them.

"Professeur~ Please~ play this piece~~~" The students said as they showed Hei Xue the Piano Piece titled 'La Campanella' by Liszt.

Liszt's La Campanella [Italian for 'The Little Bell'].

The etude is famous for being one of the most difficult pieces ever written for piano; it is played at a brisk allegretto tempo and features right hand jumps between intervals larger than one octave, sometimes stretching for two whole octaves within the time of sixteen notes. Little time is provided for the pianist to move the hand forcing the pianist to avoid tension within the muscles. Well according to the internet.

Moving his eyes to the etude's title, "You want to hear 'The Little Bell' by Liszt? Is your Professor not able to play that piece?" asked Hei Xue.

"No~ Professor Xing said that it is a bit difficult for him to play this piece and said to look for Professeur Fee for guidance."

"That's right. Professor Xing even said that Professor Fee must be in the Greenhouse Forest which is why we came here."

"Professeur Fee~~"

Seeing the pleading, sparkling gazes of the students who found him "Okay~ I'll play it for you but are you sure that its Professor Xing who said that I am here and not your Professeur Roi [Professor King in French (This is Lengya)]?"

'Exe check the area if there are changes made?'

[Please be careful: The glass ceiling above the grand piano has few man-made cracks on it. The range of accidents will be a meter around the grand piano.]

After hearing what his system had said, Hei Xue already knew who the culprit was. He couldn't help but smile in mischief though the depths of his eyes were cold. Thinking of it, that person is truly obsessed with his husband.

Whispering, "Since you love my husband so much then... I can only make him hate you as much…"

Hei Xue stood up as he prepared to walk towards the piano. "Stay under the trees for shade and listen carefully alright." said Hei Xue to the children.

"Yes, Professeur~" The three students stayed under the tree where the shade is largest. It was at least 2 meters away from the piano at the center.

Wearing a simple long white sleeve which is even larger than his body size, it can be said that the clothes were not for him but something that will fit with Wan Lengya's body size. Correct! He is wearing Lengya's clothes which he took from their shared wardrobe while in a state of half asleep this morning.

Paired with a fit black pants. Made Hei Xue look so casual, but so adorable. The students who saw his clothes recognized who originally wore such clothes.

"Hey, isn't that sleeves something Professeur Roi used to wear before? Why is Professeur Fee wearing it?"

"Shss~ quiet! It's none of our business who wears which clothes."

"It's not like you need to be surprised or anything. Rumors say that Professeur Fee used to be Professeur Roi's former wife."

"Eh!! Really!? Who did you hear it from!?"

"I heard it from Professor Yue's class. My brother attends his class. My brother said the couple divorced once. This is because of Professeur Roi's family, after that Professeur Fee decided to leave the country without informing everyone, even Professeur Roi. Only when Professor Yue accidentally bumps into Professeur Fee in France and invites him to return to the Conservatoire that they've met once again."

"Isn't their love story bittersweet? I heard that currently Professeur Roi is courting Professeur Fee once again. So sweet~"

"B-But didn't they say that Professeur Roi is going out with Professeur Xing?"

"True, I heard that from Professor Xing as well?"

"Is that even true?"

Ignoring his students murmuring, "I'm going to start now. Listen!" Hei Xue said while seated in front of the grand piano started playing La Campanella.

As the notes were pressed, the students were watching in awe as they couldn't even see their Professeur's finger pressing around the piano keys. If not for the fact they could hear the piano sounds they wouldn't believe that their Professeur is touching the piano. They watch his fingers fly over the piano keys like feathers fluttering then disappearing.

La Campanella, this is one of the difficult piano pieces in the world. Because most pianists will get tired in the middle of playing, only a few could complete this piece and before them their professor is playing it for them with ease. This Fairy is really not human. They were entranced with the music until they heard something broken.

CRASH! It was the sound of glass breaking.

At that moment Hei Xue couldn't help, but stopped playing. Looking for the source of the sounds, he then looked above him and saw glass shards falling on him.

Seeing this a small secretive smile full of mischief was found on the corner of his lips which instantly disappears as he looks at the students with him in the area, "Stay back!" Shouted Hei Xue.

Within his mind Hei Xue spoke to his system, 'Exe make sure this body remains alive.'

[Understood, Host]

The three students who wanted to reach out to him saw glass shards and debris falling from above their professor who shouted for them to stay away. Few glass shards flew towards them, but their injuries were just minor cuts while their professor was buried under stone debris and glasses in front of them. He is barely alive as he took cover under the piano.

"PROFESSEUR FEE!!!"
