Zhu WuXin didn’t expect HongSan will come to pick her up today.
After being helped up, she ran towards him smiling ever so brightly.“Brother, why are you here today?”HongSan gently helped her patted away some dust from her body, “A few days didn’t meet, you have gotten fat.”“Nonsense, I ate well and lazing around all day long. After eating went to sleep, after sleeping went to eat, how can I not be fat?”Zhu WuXin casually threw few sentences in before immediately getting back to main topic.“So yes, why did you came today?”“I came to take you back home.”“Only you?”Smiling, HongSan said, “Little brat, still playing dumb. Didn’t you saw Father also came?”Zhu WuXin pursed her lips, “What did he came here for?”“Of course to bring you back home.”Saying that, HongSan took her hand and pulled her to the front of Zhu Hou.
Zhu Hou patted her shoulder saying, “Daughter, come with Father for a while. Father have something to talk with you alone.”Zhu WuXin knew that Zhu Hou personally came to look for her, because sooner or later something bad will happen if Ning Huang still don’t go back.
Thinking her evil scheme has succeeded, she proudly went forward, following behind Zhu Hou.The Crown Prince’s gaze stayed on her hand where HongSan has just held earlier.
His smile was quietly hidden behind his calm and collected face.
Standing beside HongSan, they looked at the direction where Zhu Hou and Zhu WuXin have left.
He lightly said, “If I were to say I want to marry her, what would you do?”HongSan’s face tightened for a moment, then returned to normal.“Your Royal Highness already have the Crown Princess, it was known that Your Royal Highness and the Crown Princess are very loving to each other, why would you add another person to disrupt this peace?”“My sister is young and naive. In the Palace she will be easy to be bullied. Not to mention she is used to be free, so I think she won’t like the life of staying in the Palace.”“Hope Your Royal Highness would reconsider.”The Crown Prince sneered, “She stayed in your Zhu House, then no one would bully her?”HongSan gripped his fist inside his sleeves, “I will protect her.”[Translator note : Yay for HongSan bro (OwO)/ ]The Crown Prince became silent, his mouth gradually hanging his usual gentle smile.When Ning YeLan restored such a smile on his face, he became the Crown Prince who is ‘beneath one person, but above ten thousands of people’[1].
Becoming that Ning YeLan who will smile at anyone, but his eyes concealing murder intent.
No one can understand what kind of storm will break out from behind his smile.He turned his head to glance at HongSan, and chuckled.
Then step by step, walked towards Zhu WuXin.[1] : 一人之下萬人之上 – Flowery words to say YeLan is the Crown Prince who ranked just under one person, but above everyone in the country.
