Chapter 270: Snow Discussion With Su Yao Grandfather And A Rather Surprising Morning.

Just as what Snow has predicted his grandfather has erupted in a fit of anger, which has been solely directed to Xia Yue along with a disappointed expression on his face after hearing what she has done, and despite knowing the reason of why she did it, Snow grandfather still considered that the important matter wouldn't have turned out this way if she just believes on asking help to her Xia family.

After all, Xia Yue being love as the only daughter of the Xia Family is completely a well-known fact, so even if she was married off to another family if Xai Yue just considers it deeply then the situation of Su Yao and Su Yu wouldn't have the need to turned out this way, so in Snow grandfather eyes it was truly a foolish move for his daughter to even hide the real gender of his two grandchildren.

Not only did she perform the foolish decision to her oldest son, but even the youngest was also affected by it.

"Yue… am I so useless and cruel in your mind that you were unable to come asking for help and support? Did you believe that I will turn you away?"

"F-Father! Ah… I… it's my fault… not yours… I was really foolish.. Sorry… and Yao… sorry… Mother cause the two of you to carry all this trouble and burden…"

Snow can only silently watch as Xia Yue cries a tear full of regret along with his grandfather who showed a tired expression along with full of disappointment, just allowing them to show all the pent out emotions about the whole ordeal. 

After an hour of continued discussion, Snow has asked for his mother to leave in order to deal and discuss his complete decision to his grandfather after fully accepted that in the end, his granddaughters have turned out to be grandsons.

"Yao…"

Snow has quickly raised his hand after seeing the worried and anxious expression of his grandfather, after all, the most important information he wants to reveal isn't about their real gender, rather it's his younger brother liking the same gender.

As for Snow relationship with his lover later on, well, there was no need for his grandfather acceptance, since Snow is talking about his lover being the Emperor so if the two of them truly will become a lover in this world once more while his lover can accept his true gender after learning the truth then what complain can his grandfather expressed when the Emperor nodded his head in acceptance?

Snow is quite sure that the Emperor will show his utter ruthlessness that has been buried deep into his lover's soul.

"Rather than revealing our real gender, there is a far more important detail that I want to talk to you about."

Since Snow will be accepting Han Hui proposal later especially when he is absolutely confident that Su Nianzu will accept the condition about the divorce he has spoken about a moment ago, the man is smart enough while he won't do anything to absolutely sullies his reputation if he has to because the words Snow has delivered is the most peaceful proposal about their entire situation.

Especially, when Snow has already given the man a no way out unless Su Nianzu wanted to fight to the death about the divorce matter, uncaring and unbothered about what the people will speak about in which will cause all of their reputation to plummet down.

"...!"

Snow has only taken a casual sip of the already cold tea while he watched his grandfather showed many complicated expression on his face after hearing Su Yu and Han Hui matter, although from what he has seen so far there wasn't any disgust, object and repulsion on his grandfather face, only a sort of understanding and acceptance appearing on his old eyes after staying silent for a while.

"Ok… Ok… I got it… Su Yu and Han Hui? A vow too? I see… I understand…"

Snow is quite curious about why his grandfather is able to accept what he has revealed, only for a lonely and sad smile to appeared on his grandfather's face after comprehending his silent question.

"Ah... Yao… I also once lead a war, although it's rare, there are people under my leadership who ended up liking each other in far more than close friendship and companion… and two of my closest friend has loved each other."

"I see…"

Snow can easily nod his head on his grandfather's explanation, besides since Su Yao and Su Yu aren't the only grandsons that he has, then it would have made everything far easier since there is no problem with continuing the Xia family bloodline.

"But… Yao… you are far more decisive about Su Yu matter and have considered the future circumstances… with that vow made by that young man… I can feel absolute relief and at ease that Su Yu will not have the same fate on what happened to my close friends."

So, his grandfather's close two friends' romantic relationship has become more unfortunate than fortunate huh?

Snow just nodded his head before finally standing up and leaving the room, completely tired from just today's events, although the unofficial date with his lover is great and fun, however, there is also many problematic matters that he has dealt with.

"I understand about Su Yu's situation and I am more relieved to find that at least he can live a life of what he desires without any pressure but how about you? Yao, you can get back to having a male identity if you wanted to, although you will need to leave the capital in a few years before getting back with a new identity to remove any suspicious about your identity."

Snow that was walking has paused on his steps after hearing his grandfather's sincere offer before glancing back with rather deep eyes which have caused his grandfather to stop speaking anymore since he suddenly perceives an important insight within it.

And when Snow figure completely disappeared at the office room, the older man has just let out a deep and heavy sigh.

"Ah, my daughter… look at what kind of mess you created… your oldest son is carrying all the heavy burden by himself…"

It has been a while since he has seen a glimpse of the rare but familiar look in Su Yao eyes, which has reminded him uncomfortably about a person who is ready to die anytime, a person who has already accepted that his time will be coming sooner or later while extremely determined and resolute to die with a peaceful mind.

He is proud to have such a strong grandson like him but at the same time entirely feeling hopeless because the entire time, Su Yao every decision was for the sake of Xia Yue and Su Yu well being, there wasn't even a single decision for his well being, wholeheartedly only thinking about their happiness.

Especially he could completely comprehend that Su Yao's decision of remaining as a female gender was only to lessen the feeling of the huge burden on Xia Yue's emotional and mental state since it will definitely cause her to feel more regret and despair about what she has done to her children.

Everything was just for Su Yao's mother and younger brother comfort and peace.

"Oh, God who can hear my prayer… please let my grandson Yao feel the happiness of living his life, although his life might be a short one, later on, at least, let him experience the joy of living."

As the old man prays for his grandson's happiness, he has decided to keep a lookout on his daughter and other grandson life for as long as he still has remaining breath within him, at least, let him lessen his grandson burden and stress in order to have the chance of living a longer life.

And after leaving his grandfather, Snow has once again deal with his mother that has been waiting outside with an extremely worrying face and has chosen to also informed her about Su Yu's entire situation.

It took a bit of time when Xia Yue has also finally accepted after reasonable explanation and actual fact before Snow has gone to his own sleeping quarter, which he knows that he was going to be busy once again when the morning comes, causing a heavy sigh to escape his lip while feeling the slight heaviness on his chest.

Quickly soothing his aching body with a quick warm bath, Snow with comfortable sleeping clothes has finally laid down in a comfortable bed.

Soon morning has once more come, and when Snow has awakened the first thing he notices was a familiar scent reaching his nose.

So, when Snow has opened his eyes in a sleepy manner while sitting down with a soft yawn, he has instantly noticed a freshly picked up blooming pink lotus flowers were suddenly placed in the table which is near his window.

At the familiar beautiful flowers that have appeared in his room Snow has made sure that he still has the pink lotus flower for the commemoration of the unofficial date with his lover on the inventory, which is still there, although Snow knew that he has never taken it out but he just wanted to check it out just in case.

And when he went down the bed while walking toward the table, Snow has also turned his entire attention at the delicate and elegant looking small cuisine pot that has been placed a few distances away from the blooming lotus flowers.

Before Snow smells a rather delicious soup of porridge reaching his nose.

Bending down a bit to he opened the cover upon it, Snow has instantly recognized the familiarity of the food before him, which was so alike at the medical soup that he has once eaten last night with his lover.

Staying silent for a second, Snow gently picks up the tiny scroll to the other side in which a beautiful blooming smile has gently appeared on his face, well, waking up to see such surprise so early in the morning has made Snow feel happy and delighted.

Any person would have probably feel creepy that someone has easily entered the inner quarter of a supposed guileless young lady that has been sleeping the entire time, however, Snow isn't a genuine female while he didn't feel creep out so that is all good.

And since Snow didn't manage to wake up when someone has sneaked inside his room while Flake didn't make any single sound of an alarm, so without a doubt, it was the Emperor that has secretly sneak inside and left the freshly picked up pink lotus flowers, medicinal food, and the letter inside his room.

Especially when Snow has read the letter on his hand that was absolutely an evidenced enough to turn his guess into utter conviction.

Dear Su Yao,

In order to be able to show your gratitude, you have to watch out for your health and well being in order to be able allowed to keep healing me, so the medicinal soup is a must to have every day.

And so that you won't also become suspicious after waking up in the morning seeing random objects appearing, I have decided to use the lotus flower as a sign of our communication. 

The Silver Mask Savior.
