BXBX NOVEL Chapter 469 - 12.77
"A—Ah, Shushu, you have such sweet lips. Don\'t say that to me, though. Say that to someone that you like…" Yunyu said.
"Yeah, that\'s why I said it to you, Bai Yunyu."
"A—Ahahaha… Shushu is so good at joking…."
"I\'m not joking. Do you want me to propose now?" Huang Shu couldn\'t hold the overflowing feeling in his heart right now. Everything felt so beautiful around him.
He was sitting in a quiet lakeside, with a serene view and the beauty that snatched his heart. Huang Shu was still a man after all. No matter how much he tried to hold his feeling, they would overflow in the end.
"It\'s too fast. We just knew each other for two days…" Yunyu replied, gently refusing Huang Shu.
"I know, but I still want to try," Huang Shu said sincerely. He stared at Yunyu with his hot gaze and then continued, "Is it about… money?"
Huang Shu knew well that his disguise right now didn\'t help at all. He was disguised as a commoner without anything. How could Yunyu get attracted to him?
Huang Shu kept on thinking about his status and his mother. He knew it wouldn\'t be easy, especially with his mother. He didn\'t know what the future would hold.
But he was just following his heart right now, whatever his heart wanted to say.
"If it\'s about money, then I\'ll think of a way," Huang Shu said.
"Yunyu, you may think that I\'m a crazy guy. But, I\'ve fallen in love with you at first sight…"
Bai Yunyu blushed immediately after he heard that. He tried to distance himself from Huang Shu and cast his eyes down due to embarrassment.
"N—No, it\'s not about that… I have my own money, my dad is also quite rich. But I\'m not someone who believes in such thing as love at first sight."
"Shushu loves is earned. A good feeling is cultivated, just like a flower in a potted plant. You have to take care of it, water it every day until it blooms," Yunyu explained. He slowly turned his head to look at Huang Shu, their eyes met, and Huang Shu\'s heart melted when Yunyu smiled at him.
"Shushu, I will not reject your confession because I don\'t like you. It\'s just, I have no particular interest for you as of right now. But I\'m not sure what the future hold. Maybe we will be destined to be together in the end."
"Maybe you are my red string of fate."
"My red string of fate…" Huang Shu mumbled.
Bai Yunyu\'s words permeated his brain. He was the Seventh Prince, liked by everyone because of his status, good looks, and good academic and military skills.
Honestly, he got plenty of praise that his appearance was enough to make women and ger men fell in love.
But not for Yunyu, apparently.
Bai Yunyu raised his brows and chuckled as if he had read what was in Huang Shu\'s head.
"Yes, Shushu, you\'re a handsome man. I can see it, especially with such a handsome face. I will be blind if I say that you\'re not good-looking."
Huang Shu gulped after Yunyu said that. He really didn\'t expect Yunyu to read him like an open book, "A—Are you reading my mind?"
[No quite, Husband. I just spent a lot of time with you, so I know your emotion so clearly. I also know how packing you are down there, Big Husband, hehe.]
[Pupa: There is something called too much information. How does telling me the size of his cock would benefit me?]
[Sssh… I\'m not talking to you. I\'m talking to the Inner Larva inside you. Ah, that sweet system is so supportive.]
…
Bai Yunyu chuckled and shook his head, "I can\'t read minds. But I\'m not stupid either."
"It\'s just too obvious. Maybe you should fix on your disguise first," Yunyu said. "There is no one from the slum that has such a robust body like you. With such a clean face and teeth, and also your perfume is still in your body. I can smell it."
Huang Shu held his breath. He thought Yunyu had seen through his disguise. He was ready to reveal himself as the Seventh Prince, but what Yunyu said next made Huang Shu hesitate.
"I don\'t know from which noble family you originate from. But you should be careful not to get mugged here. The capital city is quite safe, but it\'s not for a young master like you."
"I can protect myself just fine!" Huang Shu reacted, which Yunyu chuckled after hearing it.
Huang Shu got nervous before because it didn\'t seem that Yunyu knew about his identity. True, he was popular in Capital City, but it was specifically in the noble circle. Those who had seen the Seventh Prince.
Most of the time, Huang Shu spent his day training, studying, or hunting with his Imperial Father and brothers.
\'Yunyu is an old jeweler\'s son. He is still a commoner despite his charm and beauty.\'
\'I guess that\'s relieving that he still doesn\'t know about my true identity.
"You don\'t know from which house I\'m from?"
"Nope. Well, certainly, you\'re not from the noble houses that requested jewelry from my dad\'s store," Yunyu shrugged. "I have no interest with the nobles, though, so it doesn\'t matter."
"You have no interest in the nobles?! But why?" Huang Shu asked. His sense of looming crisis emerged again after Yunyu said that. He was still from a royal family, so the status was everything that he had.
"Because I don\'t want to be a trapped bird in a golden cage. I want to be free and explore everything heaven gave us," Yunyu closed his eyes and smiled thin. "I sometimes feel pity for the Imperial Family."
"They have everything the world could offer, and they were also blessed by heaven. But they didn\'t realize they are just trapped in that Imperial Palace forever."
"If my suitor expects me to stay at home and be their meek wife, then I would rather not marry at all. No matter how beautiful the cage is. It is still a cage."
Huang Shu felt a stab in his heart. He didn\'t expect Yunyu\'s view of the world was completely out of his picture. He was taught that women and Ger men were born to serve the men. And everything they did was to give birth and take care of the household.
As a man raised to be one of the candidates for future emperors, he was educated that he should take as many women as possible as concubines because they were the princes. They had amazing vigor. They had to have many wives to accompany their nights.
But now, there was a Ger man who wanted to have an adventure, be a scholar, be a commander, and even went as far as rejecting marriage because of his ideal.
Huang Shu kept staring at Yunyu, he questioned himself.
\'He already said that he refused to be trapped like a caged canary. If he knows my status, then he would definitely reject me.\'
\'Then what is the point of trying to chase Bai Yunyu? His ideal clashes against my background as an Imperial Prince.\'
\'Is it really worth to go against the Imperial customs just to chase Yunyu?\'
