Chapter 291
291 KNOW THE TRUTH
Wu Jinhai is stingy!
Wu Jinhai is cocky!
Wu Jinhai is ugly!
On the same day, Bai Chen cursed Wu Jinhai in his head twice, but the words he used were different this time.
Those were the three sentences that Bai Chen kept reciting in his head, but of course, the third sentence was a big lie because Wu Jinhai was far from ugly. If Bai Chen could tell the truth, then Wu Jinhai was the most attractive man he had ever seen, but of course, he wouldn’t tell Wu Jinhai such a truth, would he?
Moreover, the Eldest Prince of Wu Li was no longer with him, so how could he tell the truth to the man?
The man in red escorted him to Jing Jing Liutang before saying that he was going to the border between Wu Li and Dong Lang with Yu Ming, and that was why he was left alone in the pavilion now.
That was why Bai Chen kept saying bad things about Wi Jinhai in his head. He just wanted to come with the man to the border, and he didn’t plan on doing anything there either. He just wanted to see what kind of barrier would not even let humans enter Dong Lang, and he wished to know if it was indeed set up by the demons or not.
Unfortunately, Wu Jinhai had made up his mind, and that was why the masked man immediately mounted the black stallion and left him without looking back. It was Yu Ming who stared back at him from behind the brown horse, but the black-robed man just smirked at him without saying anything.
.....
“Why is that annoying noodle even smirking at me?” Annoyed, Bai Chen suddenly realized that it was indeed strange when Yu Ming suddenly smirked at him before leaving the palace.
Now, both Wu Jinhai and Yu Ming were no longer in the palace, and only Bai Chen was in Wu Jinhai’s territory. There was a bed that belonged to Wu Jinhai inside the pavilion, but instead of lying down, Bai Chen chose to walk back and forth as if he had an ulcer on his butt that wouldn’t even let him sit on the bed in peace.
“That’s right. Wu Jinhai hasn’t told me the true identity of that ugly noodle, and that only adds to my suspicions of that man,” Bai Chen muttered once more as he finally stopped pacing back and forth within the pavilion.
He kept calling Yu Ming “noodle” even if the man didn’t look like overcooked noodles now. How the man continued to wear black only added to the man’s masculinity, but Bai Chen now thought that Yu Ming was like raw instant noodles now; it was hard, cheap, and completely unsuitable for his health.
Bai Chen thought that his blood pressure would only rise if he kept thinking about Yu Ming leaving the palace with Wu Jinhai today, and that was why he took a deep breath before bringing his feet up to the only bed within the pavilion.
It was indeed the pavilion where he had slept with Wu Jinhai last night. Yes, the two of them just slept on the bed without doing anything funny, and that was why Bai Chen didn’t recall any strange memories when he once again sat up on the bed.
“Wu Jinhai trusts Yu Ming, so maybe I need to trust him too, right? And I don’t think that man will snatch Wu Jinhai from me. I remember he addressed me as Wu Jinhai’s wife, so he must have acknowledged my relationship with Wu Jinhai, right?” Suddenly, Bai Chen saw light after his vision darkened because of the jealousy in his heart.
Of course, he would not admit that he did feel jealous, but there was indeed a feeling of uneasiness in his heart when he saw how close Wu Jinhai was to Yu Ming. Wu Jinhai had only told him last night that he was not related by blood to Yu Ming, and that was why Bai Chen had been jealous before.
However, ten minutes was enough for him to sulk, and that was why Bai Chen chose to think about something else at the moment. “Wu Jinhai said that he will definitely come back today, and that’s why I only need to wait for him to come back, right?” Suddenly, he remembered what Wu Jinhai had said to him before the man finally jumped onto the black horse’s back and drove away from the palace.
Wu Jinhai kissed him on the forehead before saying that he would definitely come back today before Bai Chen started to miss him, and remembering that time only brought a hint of rosy color to Bai Chen’s cheeks.
“Uh! Wu Jinhai is so stupid! Did he think I would miss him? I bet I won’t miss him even if he doesn’t come back today! And he even asked me to wait for him? Why should I wait for someone as stingy as him?” Bai Chen was still a man with high pride, and he refused to admit that he had been overthrown by Wu Jinhai’s words and actions before the man left the palace.
“And he even asked me to always trust him before he left, right? Why would he say something like that? If I didn’t believe him, then I wouldn’t have forgiven him, and I definitely wouldn’t have gone to this palace with him. He’s truly foolish!” Bai Chen was like a madman now, and he even threw his body onto the bed before lying on his stomach and burying his face in the pillow.
He even screamed about how Wu Jinhai was such a fool as he buried his face in the pillow, but the screams grew softer and softer as the Werewolf Prince slowly drifted off into his dreamland. He was probably tired. After all, he hadn’t had enough rest since yesterday, and it was natural for him to be exhausted, right?
Bai Chen was indeed sleeping, and that was why he failed to notice how Bai Lang had suddenly appeared out of nowhere before hovering beside the bed where Bai Chen was sleeping.
Staring its blue eyes at the sleeping figure, the white wolf whispered, “It is time for you to know the truth, Bai Chen. After this, you will have to make your own decision.”
