The door slammed open. Zhou Yu casually walked back into the Lu's home with Sun Ce trailing behind. On Ce's back laid the unconscious body of Lu Yu. Even though Sun Ce was indeed strong, Lu Yu was a bit too heavy for him.

Zhou Yu had taken the pleasure to allow Sun Ce to carry the body back into the home while he did nothing. It wasn't that he was lazy; it was the fact that he had no intentions to help someone so ill-mannered.

"You could've at least help Yu!" Ce shouted to the long haired man. Zhou Yu rolled his eyes at the whining man. Sun Ce could be a big pain sometimes, making things hard to deal with if things didn't go his way.

"I opened the door didn't I?"

"Yea but…it's not fair!" Ce moaned with a babyish attitude. He was being a pain all over again, worse then usual. No one really liked to be around Sun Ce when he was whining. Zhou Yu rolled his eyes.

"Life's not fair." He imitated, causing Ce to groan again. "Stop being bothersome Sun Ce and put the man on a chair." Zhou Yu pointed to one of the various chairs in the room. Mumbles came from Ce as he walked to the closet chair and literally dropped the unconscious man on the back of the chair.

"That'll work!"

Yu groaned in anguish, letting his hands slide down his face, stretching his cheeks at the same time. Ce ignored the grumbles from Zhou Yu, turning his attention back to Lu Yu. "I can't believe we're letting him live! What if he comes to Wu and tries something extreme?"

A loud and aggravating sigh came from Zhou Yu. He shook his head. "Sun Ce, we have guards and these big things called gates protecting our home. I truly doubt that a below average drunkard with half a brain could get pass either of them. No man would have the nerve to do such thing."

"No man would have the nerve blah blah blah..." Ce mimicked while shaking his head in a childish motion. His face was scrunched up in an out of the ordinary shape with his nostrils flaring out. His moist tongue wriggled as he mocked his friend.

Zhou Yu rolled his eyes at Sun Ce, who started snickering at Yu's annoyed face. Gongjin was about to retort at Ce, but was interrupted by a deafening voice.

"Found it!!!!!"

Xiao Qiao's high voice ran throughout the manor. The two heard a loud shushing sound, who they knew as Da Qiao scolding her sister for being so loud. "Sorry sis!!!!" The younger Qiao's voice shouted again.

Sun Ce started running towards the hallways. "Whatcha find Lady Xiao?!" He shouted at the top of his lungs. Zhou Yu heard a louder, 'Its Xiao!' from upstairs. He sighed at the two childish behaviors. Taking one more glance at Lu Yu, Zhou Yu followed Sun Ce.

Another shush sound came from upstairs. "Don't 'shuuuush' me Da! That's mean!"" Her voice rung throughout the home once again, but no responds came. How could someone yell so much and not have a sore throat?

Lu Yi's room:
"What so you think is in the box Da?"

The two Qiaos, along with the sleeping Lu Yi, was sitting around a box. The same box Lu Yi had spoke about before passing out again. "Maybe it's money?"

"Whatever it is, it must be important. I believe that is why he wanted to come back to his home." Da Qiao said, staring at Yi's tired face. He was still sitting in her lap.

"Well, probably. Maybe there was something in the box that his dad didn't want him to take to Wu?"

"Who knows Xiao Qiao, who knows..."

Ce leaped into the room, causing a loud THUMP! sound when he landed beside Da. "So what'd me and Yu miss?" He asked curiously.

Zhou Yu casually walked into the room and stood beside Xiao who started leaning on his leg. "Nothing, except that Yi woke up while you guys left and said 'Box…' and then slept again!" Xiao Qiao imitated Lu Yi's words in a weak voice before returning to her normal voice. "So Da let him lay on her lap while I looked under the bed and I found this little sucker!"

"Quite an adventure we missed in a short time." Yu complimented, gaining a hug from Xiao. Ce laughed and eyed the box. "So what exactly is in the box?"

Da Qiao turned to her husband. "We do not know, but whatever it is, it must be quite valuable to him." she said for a second time.

Sun Ce grinned. "Let's open it then!" he exclaimed. Xiao Qiao nodded eagerly. "We should know what's in there if we're gonna take it with us."

Yu shook his head. "It would be invading ones privacy Sun Ce, something that no one would want." Zhou Yu stated. Sighs came from Xiao and Ce. "Can't we take a little peek Yuie?" The younger Qiao asked with a pout.

Gongjin chuckled and shook his head. "That would not be the best idea. Perhaps the young man will let you see on our journey home?" Xiao Qiao squealed and hugged his leg once again. "I hope so!" She squealed.

"Me too!" Sun Ce said in an agreeing tone. Da Qiao smiled. "Maybe he will show us all." the elder Qiao smiled. "But for now, we must be on our way."

The three nodded in agreement as Sun Ce and Xiao Qiao stood up. Ce lifted Lu Yi's body from Da's lap, letting her stand up. Zhou Yu led the four out the door, in the hallways and down the stairs. Xiao Qiao raised her eyebrow and snickered when she saw Lu Yu's body. Ce also snickered, nearly dropping Yi. Zhou Yu ignored the laughing and stayed quiet. Da Qiao sighed. "You did that didn't you Lord Sun Ce?" she asked, referring to the body.

"Maybe." was all he said, still laughing. Xiao Qiao laughed again and ran up to Zhou Yu. "He did that didn't he?" she asked.

Zhou Yu nodded, causing Xiao to squeal. "You're a bad boy Ce!" She shouted before running ahead of the four.
