His mind immediately changed when he saw Zhu Ge’s guilty expression, and before he could stop himself, he had already said that he wanted the man to help him.

And Zhu Ge stupidly smiled after hearing his words. Bai Chen didn’t even know why the man looked so happy just because he was willing to hire him as a servant to prepare for the event, but he chose to ignore it as the two of them walked back to Jing Pavilion.

Zhu Ge followed Bai Chen into the pavilion, and Bai Chen didn’t mind what he was doing. He had decided that he would let Zhu Ge help him, and he did not plan to change his mind.

After arriving at Jing Pavilion, Bai Chen sat down on a chair, and Zhu Ge stood behind him. He ignored the man’s presence as he picked up a comb and used it to comb his long hair.

It had been almost a week since he had first discovered that his hair had grown so long, and he had gotten used to it now. He even admired how silky and soft his brown hair was, and he was starting to love it.

He really liked his long hair and wanted to brush it neatly, but the comb in his hand was suddenly snatched away by someone. Turning his head back, he could see the comb in Zhu Ge’s hand.

“What are you doing now?” The Prince asked while furrowing his brows.

The man in red didn’t immediately answer the question, and instead, he started to comb Bai Chen’s long hair. The owner of the hair froze after knowing the man’s intentions.

.....

“You are here with a servant, but you chose to comb your hair without asking your servant for help?” The black-haired man asked, and there was a hint of teasing in his voice.

Now Bai Chen knew that Zhu Ge had returned to his original self. He knew that Zhu Ge was teasing him, but Bai Chen chose to remain silent as he studied his reflection in the mirror in front of him. Not only was his reflection visible in the mirror, but he could also see Zhu Ge’s reflection.

Zhu Ge didn’t look like someone who could treat someone gently, but to his surprise, the man was combing his hair very carefully right now. It was as if her hair was extremely fragile, and the man in red was combing it very carefully.

“Tell me more about the Beast Hunting Event,” Unable to stand the silence any longer, Bai Chen decided to break it as he ordered the man.

Zhu Ge had agreed to help him prepare for the event, and Bai Chen thought that they could start preparing for the event by giving him more understanding of the event. Bai Chen wasn’t from this world, and he didn’t even know what beasts they should hunt in the forest.

Zhu Ge finally stopped his movements when he finished combing Bai Chen’s brown locks. Placing the comb on the table again, he then pulled a chair to Bai Chen’s side and sat on it.

They sat next to each other, but instead of facing each other, they just looked at each other through their reflections in the mirror.

“Do you know that the event will be held in the Forbidden Forest?” Zhu Ge asked, and Bai Chen nodded in response. “The Forbidden Forest is like Mount Heping which is a silent witness to the peace between humans and werewolves. Back then, apart from demons, several beasts often threatened the lives of humans and werewolves, so the Immortal Daoist of the human empire, as well as the Immortal Elder of the werewolf empire, used their powers to seal the beasts in the forest that was then called the Forbidden Forest.”

The first time Bai Chen heard about the forest was from Ma Qiao. Just then, the servant told him that the special paper he used to teleport to the Red Pavilion was paper from a tree in the Forbidden Forest.

He had no interest in the forest before, but after learning that the Beast Hunting Event would be held in the forest, he began to feel curious about the forest.

“Is the forest called forbidden because people are not allowed to enter the forest?” Bai Chen asked again as he continued to stare at Zhu Ge’s reflection in the mirror.

“It’s not like that,” replied Zhu Ge. “The forest is called forbidden because dangerous beasts are sealed in the forest, but people can still enter the forest if they want. But, if they entered the forest, then they would have to take a risk because the dangerous beasts would prey on them. The beasts can’t escape the barrier in the forest, but they can still use their strength within the barrier.”

When he thought about it again, Bai Chen secretly believed in Zhu Ge’s explanation. He could have special paper for teleportation that came from a tree in the Forbidden Forest, so people indeed could enter the forest even though the forest was dangerous.

“So, people who dare to enter the forest must be very strong, right?” Bai Chen asked again.

“Mhm,” Zhu Ge replied as he nodded his head. “That’s why I didn’t expect you to participate in the event.”

Zhu Ge was indirectly saying that he was weak, but Bai Chen couldn’t argue with the man because what he just said wasn’t wrong. He did have the power of teleportation, but he didn’t have any combat abilities.

His physique was naturally weak as he was only half a werewolf, and entering the forest would be extremely dangerous. Even if humans were to enter the forest as well during the event, Bai Chen was certain that the humans were no ordinary.

Just like in the fantasy novels he used to read in his previous life, humans in this world might also be able to cultivate, and they would be able to gain the power to defeat the beasts.

“Why are you suddenly silent?” Zhu Ge asked again because the man didn’t say a word after he gave further explanation. “Are you afraid? If you are not sure about it, you’d better cancel your plans to participate in the event because the event is too dangerous.”

He didn’t know the reason behind Zhu Ge’s suggestion. He wasn’t sure if Zhu Ge said that because he was worried or it was just his way of mocking him that he was just a weak werewolf who would be killed if he insisted on participating in the event.

Bai Chen didn’t need Zhu Ge to remind him that he was weak, but it seemed he had no choice in his hands. He had accepted the mission from the system, and he couldn’t just retreat.

“No, I will still participate in the event,” the Prince answered Zhu Ge’s question without hesitation, and Zhu Ge seemed speechless before he opened his lips to speak.

But, before a sound managed to escape the man’s lips, the two could hear someone shouting from outside the pavilion.

“Your Highness! His Highness the Crown Prince is here to see you!”

And the two men looked stunned when they heard the announcement.
