BXBX NOVEL Chapter 482 - 12.90
Yunyu finally left the main hall and then saw someone waiting for him under the stair. His eyes darted immediately at Yunyu, and Yunyu could only give him a cold stare.
He stepped down on the staircases, and when he arrived at the bottom, Huang Shu suddenly grabbed his hand.
"Wha—"
Huang Shu dragged Yunyu to a pavilion quite far from the Imperial courtyard, so nobody would disturb them. Huang Shu had many things in his head, but he became tongue-tied, and the only word he could utter was his beloved\'s name.
"Bai Yunyu…"
Yunyu stared at Huang Shu with such a cold gaze, as if he was staring at a stranger, "Good Morning, Your Highness, Seventh Prince."
Huang Shu felt his heart was stabbed with a sharp knife as he knew that Yunyu must\'ve realized it sooner than him.
"Y—Yunyu, I\'m sorry for yesterday, I—"
"The grievance is only in my side, Your Highness. You don\'t need to apologize. You are not involved in this," Yunyu snippet. He didn\'t even care to look at Huang Shu twice. He was both pissed and disappointed at Huang Shu because he was the one who indirectly caused Yunyu family\'s downfall.
"Please excuse me, Your Highness, I have to prepare myself," Yunyu said. But Huang Shu grabbed his arm, holding him because they were not done yet.
Huang Shu didn\'t want any miscommunication between them, "Yunyu, I was sorry that I can\'t come yesterday. I have been drugged by someone! I ran to your house in the middle of the night, searching for you, and went to Duke Xi\'s mansion. I—"
"Stop your dry explanation, Your Highness. There is no use of explaining because I see nothing of your fault."
"D—Don\'t say that. I really have no clue. I was drugged by someone here and slept for the whole day! Trust me!"
Bai Yunyu paused for a moment, and then he shrugged Huang Shu\'s grip from his arm to no avail. Huang Shu tightened his clutch instead.
"Whether it is the truth or not, it won\'t change anything, Your Highness, Seventh Prince. It\'s better not to think about the past. Please let me go."
"Stop calling me Seventh Prince! Call me by my name!" Huang Shu yelled desperately. He really hated this feeling of alienation that Yunyu intentionally did towards him.
As if Yunyu didn\'t want to get entangled with him anymore.
"Why would I call you by your name? There is nothing between us except a peasant and an Imperial Prince!"
"But I love you! Bai Yunyu, please listen to me. I will try to move some stuff and help you!" Huang Shu started raising his voice as he got impatient. Thinking about Yunyu, who would leave him alone, terrified him.
"Don\'t you dare to say that you love me! You know it won\'t change anything! My father is dead! DEAD! And you know the culprit, don\'t you?" Yunyu yelled back desperately. His chest was undulating up and down as he got upset whenever he remembered about his beloved father.
"Now, I will ask you just one, Your Highness, Honorable Seventh Prince, Huang SHu. Since you already know the culprit behind my slander, my burned house, and the death of my father, what would you do next?"
…
Huang Shu got silenced immediately after Yunyu asked that question. Because he was also trying to consider it by himself. After all, knowing that your mother was the one who hurt your beloved was such a hard hit for Huang Shu.
Yes, he hated his mother, and all the respect that he had for his mother previously had disappeared. But to actually hurt… especially killing your own birth mother… Huang Shu still had a speck of filial piety for his evil mother.
After witnessing Huang Shu\'s silence, Yunyu chuckled mirthlessly, "As I expected, you wimpy momma boy. You will not do anything because you\'ve been pampered since birth! Now shut up and release me!" Bai Yunyu pushed Huang Shu and was about to leave, but Huang Shu grabbed his waist from behind and then pulled him to his chest, embracing Yunyu and tightly locking Yunyu\'s waist with his arms.
"YOU JERK! LET ME GO! LET ME GO!!" Yunyu struggled and accidentally elbowed Huang Shu\'s cheek quite hard.
"Ugh!" Yunyu stopped immediately and looked over his shoulder. He saw Huang Shu\'s cheekbone was bruised red and would probably turn blue soon.
But Huang Shu still stared at Bai Yunyu with assurance in his eyes. He bit his lips, feeling troubled and sad because of Yunyu\'s struggle.
"My beloved, please be patient. I\'m also a human. I have a dilemma in my heart," Huang Shu couldn\'t help but spout what was inside his heart right now. Although it made him look weak, seeing Yunyu like this only hurt him even more.
"Believe me, you will always be my priority and my only one…."
Bai Yunyu\'s body trembled as Huang Shu buried his face on Yunyu\'s shoulder. He wanted to continue getting mad at Huang Shu, but deep in his heart, he knew he couldn\'t.
Because Huang Shu was also hurting, just like him.
[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 70%.]
[Pupa: Do you hate Huang Shu that much?]
[I…. I don\'t hate him. I just want to pressure him, to make sure that he can do something to bring pain to those witches.]
[Pupa: I understand. But he is also a human. He needs time to process such a huge hit.]
[…]
"Ah, I didn\'t know that Shu-Ge is having a private time with this Ger."
The harmony between Huang Shu and Bai Yunyu was ruined when he heard the voice of a young woman disturbing them right now. Huang Shu darted his eyes immediately and inevitably loosened his hug around Yunyu\'s waist while Yunyu broke away easily.
He distanced himself from Huang Shu, and when he saw who disturbed them, his shyness disappeared. He glared at Xi Yue, who smiled at them with such a light smile.
[And this is it, the witch\'s accomplice.]
Huang Shu\'s expression also soured when he saw Xi Yue, "What are you doing here?" He asked.
"Eh? Why are you acting as if you don\'t know? Didn\'t you said yesterday that we will have our second date here?" Xi Yue replied lightly. She glanced at Bai Yunyu and grinned, "I never knew that we have a Ger noble in this nation. I thought Gers come from the peasants\' blood."
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" Huang Shu thundered. But Xi Yue didn\'t phase. She just shrugged, and with a sweet smile, she continued, "I\'m just telling the truth, Shu-Ge, they do come from Peasant blood."
Yunyu knew that Xi Yue was just trying to torment him, but he was just too tired with all this royal bullshit. Thus, he decided to just step out of the stage.
"I\'m leaving," Yunyu said.
"No, Yunyu, where are you going?!" Huang Shu tried to stop Yunyu.
Yunyu paused for a moment, then he replied, "Military. Goodbye, Seventh Prince. I hope you will be happy with your life."
Yunyu walked away, and when Huang Shu was about to chase him, Xi Yue suddenly grabbed his hand, hindering him.
"Remember, Shu-Ge, Seventh Prince, there is no use of being entangled with a Ger. They\'re disgusting. Do you want your baby coming out of his asshole? You might as well kill that baby…."
