192 WARM KISS, WARM HEART

Bai Guowei didn’t plan to hold any special rituals for his eldest son, and he would soon hold a funeral for his son tomorrow.

It was said that the Emperor also did such a thing when his wife died many years ago. Instead of performing a special ritual for his beloved wife, Bai Guowei immediately wanted to hold the woman’s funeral, and he planned to do the same for his eldest son who had just left the world.

Maybe there was a reason behind his decision, but no one dared to question the pitiful Emperor who had just lost a son who was supposed to take over his throne in the future.

Bai Renshu’s corpse was carried by the palace guards to another hall, and the Zuigao Hall was quiet once again. Emperor Bai Guowei looked so lost after his son’s death, and he immediately chased everyone out of the hall after his son’s corpse was carried by the palace guards to another hall.

Now, there were only two people in front of the Zuigao Hall, and those two people were Bai Chen and Zhu Ge.

Even if Bai Renshu’s corpse was no longer inside the Zuigao Hall, Bai Chen still felt reluctant to leave the hall, and that was why he was still standing in front of the closed door of the Zuigao Hall.

Zhu Ge was still with him, and the man didn’t say anything as if he was just waiting for him to say something.

Sighing heavily, Bai Chen then carried his feet towards the stairs at the front of the hall before sitting on them without caring about the dust and dirt beneath his butt. He still remembered when Ma Qiao said that a Prince shouldn’t sit recklessly like that, but Bai Chen didn’t care about that right now.

He didn’t even care about cleanliness, and all he wanted to do was rest his tired mind while sitting on the stairs.

.....

He was silent and didn’t make any movement, but then someone suddenly sat next to him. When he turned his head to the side, he could see Zhu Ge suddenly sitting in the empty spot next to him.

“Are you going to tell me that a Prince shouldn’t be sitting on stairs like this?” Bai Chen weakly asked a question as he looked into Zhu Ge’s pair of brown eyes.

“Why should I tell you that?” Instead of answering, Zhu Ge asked him back. “I remember when you once told me that a Prince can do anything they want, and that includes sitting on stairs like this, right?”

Bai Chen didn’t even remember when he told Zhu Ge something like that. Maybe he just spoke randomly at the time, and that was why he didn’t keep those memories in his head.

But perhaps he was naive when he said such a thing to Zhu Ge. Even a Prince had limits, and an unwanted Prince like him would definitely have more restrictions in the palace.

“It doesn’t matter,” Bai Chen replied as he took his eyes off the taller man. “Even if you say that a Prince shouldn’t be recklessly sitting in a place like this, I will still be sitting here.”

Bai Chen looked stubborn, but actually, he couldn’t move his feet to go any further than Zuigao Hall.

“I won’t tell you that,” Zhu Ge replied once again. “In any case, I can understand your feelings now, and I will only support whatever decision you will make.”

Zhu Ge usually looked cheerful and carefree, but the man suddenly spoke very seriously to him. Even when the man had confidently introduced himself as Bai Chen’s lover earlier, the man also sounded very stern and solemn, and Bai Chen didn’t find any jokes at all.

Putting that fact aside, Bai Chen was also touched by the man’s statement just now. Maybe it was just a string of words, but it was enough to give Bai Chen moral support, and that was why a smile slowly formed on his face even if he was still staring ahead rather than staring at the man sitting next to him.

“I can’t even understand my feelings right now, but you said you could understand me?” Bai Chen asked again without looking at Zhu Ge. “I don’t even know why I felt sad after Bai Renshu died. He always hated me when he was alive, and he also continued to mock me with his words almost every day. I know that he is not a good brother to me, but I still feel sad knowing that he will no longer be here to mock me.”

Bai Chen was indeed confused by his feelings. Bai Renshu was no longer in the world, and that would actually help him to reach the throne more easily since Dong Lang no longer had a Crown Prince.

Even Wu Jinhai assumed that he should feel happy if Bai Renshu died when they were still in the Forbidden Forest, but Bai Chen couldn’t feel any happiness after learning that the white-haired man had died.

“Maybe you can’t understand your own feelings, but I can really understand them,” Zhu Ge responded to his words again. “I can understand if you feel sad even if your enemy ends up dead. After all, Bai Renshu is still your brother, and no matter what happens, blood is still thicker than water.”

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ge gave him a thoughtful response, and Bai Chen finally turned to the black-haired man. Zhu Ge was indeed in his serious mode, and the man was even trying to comfort him when he was feeling so bad at the moment.

Apart from the comforting words, Bai Chen could also see how the man was smiling at him sincerely, and Bai Chen could feel how his heart skipped a beat when he saw that smile.

Unfortunately, his heart condition got worse when he suddenly got a warm kiss on his forehead.

Yes, Zhu Ge had just kissed him right on the forehead, and after feeling how his heart was pounding erratically, Bai Chen finally closed his eyes as he tried to cherish the moment.

He didn’t want to push Zhu Ge away this time. He knew that he could only rely on the man now.
