Many years had passed, but the memory was still vivid in his head. No matter how hard he tried to forget everything, those painful memories would still come back to him from time to time.

He was alone in the bathroom, and neither did he plan on calling Ma Qiao to help him get dressed. It had been a few days since he had just arrived in this world, and he had learned how to dress.

The white hanfu still looked dull in his eyes, but he had no other choice but to follow the rules in the palace. If he wanted to usurp the throne, then he had better not make trouble for himself, and that was why he could only follow the rules by wearing a white hanfu.

‘But Zhu Ge dares to wear a red robe? Will it cause problems for me?’ He wondered as he continued to use his hands to put on the white clothes.

Zhu Ge was indeed a troublemaker, and even if he agreed to be his servant, he would still not follow the rules in the palace. The man had indeed given Bai Chen a headache, and he once again remembered how he had clashed with the man earlier.

Maybe they weren’t really fighting because only Bai Chen was being too sensitive. Maybe Zhu Ge was just joking, but Bai Chen took those words to heart, and he ended up crying pitifully because of it.

It was an embarrassing moment because Bai Chen inadvertently showed how weak he was in front of Zhu Ge, and the man probably laughed at him after he entered the bathroom.

He was in the bathroom when he was crying, but people outside the bathroom might hear how he was sobbing because the door was only made of wood, and his voice might be caught by someone outside the bathroom.

.....

His hair was still wet, but he had finished dressing up when he let out a heavy sigh. He didn’t even know how he would have to face Zhu Ge if he met that man later, but he knew that he wouldn’t be able to hide forever.

Even without Zhu Ge’s help, he still had to prepare himself for the event, and that was why he couldn’t stay in the bathroom any longer.

Taking a deep breath, he then opened the bathroom door, and he was surprised when he saw a familiar man in red clothes standing in front of the bathroom. He had indeed seen the silhouette of a person when he was still in the bathroom, but he had no idea that the owner of the silhouette was Zhu Ge.

When he had just started taking a bath, he could see the silhouette of Zhu Ge walking away from the bathroom, and that was why he thought that the man had finally left him alone. Now that he had to face the man head-on when he wasn’t ready, he didn’t know what to do.

He was crying in the bathroom, and maybe his eyes were swollen from it. Therefore, he chose to take his eyes off the taller man to hide his puffy eyes from the man. Even if the man might have heard how he was crying miserably, he didn’t want to embarrass himself any further in front of that man.

He expected that Zhu Ge would leave him alone as he publicly indicated to the man that he was not in the mood to talk to the man, but instead of turning and walking away from him, the man in red took two steps closer to him earlier while bringing his hands to his stomach area.

Bai Chen reflectively moved backward to keep some distance between them, but Zhu Ge still managed to catch the sash around his stomach and do something with it.

“Why are you tying your sash in a dead knot, Your Highness? It will be difficult for you to take off your clothes if you tie them like this.”

Bai Chen had become a statue when Zhu Ge was desperately trying to untie the knot in his sash, and he couldn’t even breathe properly because the taller man was standing too close to him now.

Zhu Ge was only helping him dress properly, so Bai Chen chose to remain silent and let the man help him. He had indeed not noticed his sash before, and he just tied it randomly without thinking too much. He didn’t even notice that he had tied his sash in a dead knot.

Bai Chen tried not to look at the handsome man who was frowning as he was seriously working on his sash, but his efforts failed miserably and he ended up staring at the man.

Zhu Ge was taller than him, so when he helped him with the sash, he had to bend slightly so that he could work well on it. Now their heads were on the same level, and Bai Chen couldn’t help but stare at that handsome face.

Zhu Ge did look cleaner and neater today, and he also looked even more handsome. If he returned to the Red Pavilion when he appeared like this, Bai Chen was sure that the horny men in the pavilion would go crazy because of him.

“Done,” the man in red suddenly announced as he straightened his body, and Bai Chen almost groaned in protest when Zhu Ge was once again taller than him.

However, he tried to hide his disappointment as he turned his gaze to look at the sash around his stomach. Zhu Ge had tied the stash with a butterfly knot, and it did look even prettier than the previous knot.

“I’m sorry.”

He suddenly heard someone mumble an apology, and since it was only him and Zhu Ge in front of the bathroom, he was sure it was Zhu Ge who had just apologized to him.

He knew that it was Zhu Ge, but he still looked at the taller man after hearing the apology. Maybe his eyes were puffy, but he was confident enough to bring them up to meet those brown eyes.

Even if he had only known Zhu Ge for a few days, he could tell that the man was not someone who could easily apologize and sympathize with others. Zhu Ge was not a cold and gloomy man, but he seemed like a person who didn’t care about other people’s feelings.

Now that he heard the man’s apology, Bai Chen knew that the man had dropped his pride, and it somehow made him feel relieved. At least, the man would not carelessly throw another joke that would hurt his heart again.

Bai Chen wasn’t someone who would hold a grudge against someone for long, and he sighed before replying, “It’s fine. I’m too sensitive, and it’s not your fault.”

The blue-eyed Prince could even smile at the taller man, and Zhu Ge blinked in confusion at him. “I didn’t expect that you would forgive me so easily, Your Highness,” he replied.

Hearing the innocent response, Bai Chen chuckled. “You want me to be mad at you longer?” He even teased the taller man. “Actually, my mercy is not free, and you must help me prepare for the Beast Hunting Event as payment.”
