Long Junhao spent the rest of his time leisurely with Gu Chen who happily counted with his fingers.
Su Qing is someone who is clear-headed and wouldn’t go around looking for trouble, so he doesn’t pose a threat. The great Doctor, Taoist Master Chu is also mostly clear-headed now, and with the mafia boss, police officer watching over him, he isn’t a threat either. As for the other person who was banned from entering the prince’s residence, he’s trying his best to persuade his wife to give up the idea of buying a helicopter for the sake of the money in his pocket, and won’t be annoying for the time being. Yu Ao is still lying in bed after being shot and the beast is in charge of taking care of him so he won’t show up very often. Shu Wen has always been someone who obeyed his words. So to sum up the above, at present, the boss of this asylum is none other than the prince.
A certain boss prince was holding a little dog and the little dog was holding a bone in both paws. The two creatures listened to his analysis in a daze. The prince said, “oh…”
The little dog said, “woof…”
Gu Chen nodded and continued to analyse. As of today, nobody knows if Lei Yan will make a move. There are mercenaries and a team of people sent by Su Qing here so it is much safer inside than outside. Moreover, no one here will purposefully find trouble with the prince.
“Oh…”
“Woof…”
“…” Gu Chen said, “then that’s all, I believe you can understand what I mean.”
The prince said, “so you want me to be at ease and stay here?”
The little dog’s bone fell off and it said, “woof?”
Gu Chen rubbed his head affectionately and got up and left without saying anything. Before he left, he didn’t forget to look back at him deeply, his eyes containing a little sympathy.
A certain prince silently watched him leave with a question mark on his face, and then a little nurse’s sweet voice rang out, saying that His Majesty and Her Majesty had arrived. At the same time, the happy voice of Her Majesty also sounded in the corridor, “son~~ I’m here~~”
A certain prince’s expression froze. He was about to see that demon again.
The little dog looked at the bone on the ground and struggled violently, “woof woof woof!”
A certain prince threw the dog down and watched it happily get under the cabinet with the bone in his mouth. Then, the door opened and his cheap mother ran in, hugged him and started smothering, “son, I missed you so much~”
A certain prince nodded blankly, “oh, I miss you so much too…” He murmured, “I’ll be even happier if you’d come to see me alone… really…”
“Hey, what did you say, son?”
Long Junhao didn’t answer and silently turned his head to look at the door. Then, the figure of the family’s demon slowly appeared. He waved his hand weakly, “hi…”
Long Xi nodded, maintaining his facial paralysis.
Long Junhao tried his best to ignore his existence and chatted with his cheap mother with a smile on his face. Long Xi looked at him with his paralyzed face for a while before suddenly taking his wife out and closing the door behind her.
Long Junhao’s heart trembled immediately and he looked at him with a pale face, fearing that this person would say something that would make him miserable.
Sure enough, Long Xi spoke indifferently, “the previous time wasn’t that bad, you really won’t think about it?”
He instantly cried, “you doing it on purpose, right? Ah? It’s definitely on purpose, right?!” The bomb incident was still clear in his mind, coupled with the analysis of the jinx and Gu Chen, he’d rather go to hell than take a step outside the asylum!
Long Xi said indifferently, “it’s a suggestion.”
Long Junhao looked at him with teary eyes, biting his lip without saying a word and looking very pitiful. He used to be unbelieving in fate, but now he felt that this demon was fated to be his nemesis!
Long Xi looked at him with his paralyzed face and came to a conclusion after a while, “it seems that you don’t want to go out.”
Long Junhao sniffed, “can you stay away from me? I must not be your legitimate child, right? Right?”
“You’re my legitimate son.”
Long Junhao didn’t answer and looked at him with an aggrieved expression.
Long Xi continued to have facial paralysis and after looking at him for a long time, he finally walked over to hug him and rubbed his head, “I’m very happy that you chose to leave that organisation, live a good life.” Then, the man turned and walked away in a dazed state, his figure quickly disappearing without a trace.
His cheap father is indeed a demon… A certain prince thought silently, then slowly recovered, and immediately rolled around on the ground. His chance to be discharged from the asylum was missed by him again ahhh!
“Your prince, your prince can’t take it anymore ahhh!” He shouted up at the ceiling, his eyes desolate, “is this really fate?”
Gu Chen walked back slowly, stood at the door and looked at him. The little dog also happily came out and ran around him. A certain prince turned his head to look at it, “get lost…”
The joyous little dog froze and drilled back in silently. Gu Chen opened his mouth, “Hao Hao…”
“You get lost too…”
Gu Chen looked at him helplessly, walked in and pulled him up from the ground, “let’s go out for a walk.”
“No, your prince is not in the mood now.”
Gu Chen still dragged him out, “it’s okay, let this concubine accompany you, you’ll be in the mood.”
“Bullshit, since when were you as obedient as the first concubine? Hah, anyway, I haven’t seen him around often recently, what happened to him?”
“I don’t know,” Gu Chen thought for a while, “he hasn’t come out much since the last incident.”
“Oh,” a certain prince subconsciously looked at Shu Wen’s small courtyard, “what happened to him? How did he become what he is now?”
“You know that some high-level intellectuals lack the ability to survive because they are too focused on learning, right?” Gu Chen said patiently, “for example, if he’s home alone, he won’t even know how to survive.”
Long Junhao nodded, “Shu Wen is like that?”
“Yes, he’s a typical person like that who is very focused on his knowledge,” Gu Chen said, “he likes physics and he likes it very much. He was preparing to use a research study to participate in a competition. This research was very important to him and almost exhausted all his efforts, but he failed.”
Long Junhao nodded again, “continue.”
“That’s it.”
“That’s it?” Long Junhao opened his mouth wide, “then he went crazy?! Are you kidding me? Isn’t that too frail?!”
“Can’t do anything about it. He’s a sheltered and rich young master who only studies all day and has no other hobbies. He is the kind that devotes all his soul into what he likes. According to his parents, he fainted from hunger several times because he was too focused and didn’t care about other things. But in the end, it was a failure. It’s normal that he couldn’t stand the blow.” Gu Chen explained. “In this world, there is a type of person who will not let go of what he insists on. Shu Wen is like that. It’s just that his tolerance is a little low, but I have to admit that he is a very talented person.”
Long Junhao nodded blankly, “no wonder you said that he has nothing to be investigated on.”
“Yeah, so that time, we were really gambling.”
Long Junhao shrank his neck subconsciously, “don’t mention that time…”
“…Alright.”
Long Junhao rubbed his chin and suddenly muttered, “Shu Wen, Shu Wen… This name really suits him, like a curse…” He looked at the small courtyard again and shook off Gu Chen’s hand, “okay, it’s decided, your prince is going to pamper the first concubine today.” He turned his head and left. Gu Chen stood there and watched him walk away with difficult eyes.
“Hi…” Li Xuan was exhausted by his wife these past two days. He originally wanted to find a friend to complain to, but as soon as he stepped in, he saw Gu Chen’s eyes and swallowed the rest of the words before changing to a serious tone, “well, you finally decided to go back?”
Gu Chen nodded, his eyes firm, “I want to solve this matter completely.”
“Although I would really like to say I wish you success… But,” Li Xuan stared at him, “be careful, Lei Yan might really kill you.”
“There’s no other way so I have to take the risk,” Gu Chen looked at him, “I’ll entrust Hao Hao to you during this period of time, take care of him.”
“Understood, either way, he’s still my money tree.”
Gu Chen nodded, “then I’m leaving.”
“Wait!” Li Xuan quickly stopped him.
Gu Chen looked back in surprise, “what?”
Li Xuan threw himself on his shoulder and began to cry, “tell me why do I have a wife like that ahhh! What should I do? I’m suffering ahhh!”
“…” Gu Chen said, “who asked you to love him?”
“Yeah, I love him,” Li Xuan roared with tears in his eyes, “but I also love money ahhhhh!”
“…” Gu Chen patted his shoulder sympathetically, “it’s not easy to be obsessed with money to this level but you still have to choose one, don’t you?”
“No,” Li Xuan grabbed his sleeve and wiped his tears, “I choose the third one, I’m going to kill that jinx. I’ve really had enough of him over the years, come with me, don’t tell me you don’t want to.”
“I also really want,” Gu Chen pulled away his sleeves and said helplessly, “but after we kill him, we’ll be close to death too. Can you stop Su Cong if he goes all out? Don’t tell me you forgot what the outside world calls him.”
“The red…” Li Xuan murmured, “spider lily.”
“Meaning the flower of death.” Gu Chen added a sentence and patted him sympathetically again before turning his head away. Li Xuan dryly watched him walk away before wiping away his tears and running back to his small courtyard without hesitation, ready to continue to persuade his wife.
When Long Junhao ran into Shu Wen’s room, he was startled. The room was a mess and his concubine was standing in the center, very engrossed in playing with something. He opened his mouth, “…concubine?”
Shu Wen turned his head to look at him and immediately reacted, “husband.”
“Yes, yes,” Long Junhao looked at the pile of things strangely, “what is this, a chain reaction?”
Shu Wen thought for a while, “I don’t know so I’m playing around with it, look,” he pointed at a small iron ball and slowly pushed it down, “when the ball goes down, it will knock down the small wooden board, the wooden board will pull the rope, and then…” He pulled his dear husband along and slowly explained as the chain reaction went, his expression full of excitement.
Long Junhao immediately became interested when he saw the smooth reaction and let him pull him along. Shu Wen continued to walk, “then over here, I hung a large basin full of water. As long as the stick is knocked into a certain position, it will trigger the mechanism and the water in the basin would immediately…” Before he could finish his words, the water above fell down with a splash.
The two were silent for a second before Shu Wen wiped the water on his face and then said, “it will be spilled immediately.”
“…” Long Junhao also wiped the water on his face and slowly turned his head to look at him. Calm down. Ah, calm down, this is my lifesaver.
Seeing him looking over, Shu Wen started to be shy again, as if he was not the culprit who had just let himself and his husband take a free cold bath, “husband, what do you think?”
Long Junhao took a deep breath and with shaking hands, he patted Shu Wen’s shoulder, adding more strength each time, “this unlucky child…”
“Ah?”
“Nothing,” a certain prince walked out silently, “your prince’s clothes are wet so he will need to change them. You hurry up and change too, don’t catch a cold.”
Shu Wen bowed delicately behind him, “yes, husband.”
Long Junhao went back and changed his clothes. After looking around, he couldn’t find Gu Chen so he bit his finger and thought, did he go to Yu Ao? He frowned and walked to Yu Ao’s place.
Yu Ao was lying on the bed with a drip beside him, his face was very pale and when he saw him coming in, he smiled at him, “Your Highness.”
“Did Gu Chen come here?”
Yu Ao shook his head.
Looking at his pale face, Long Junhao walked over and sat down beside him, sighing, “say, why did you block that shot?” Just let that beast die.
Yu Ao laughed. He was originally cunningly beautiful and this smile instantly made him a lot brighter, “because I love him, if I didn’t block it, he would’ve died.”
Long Junhao looked at what was called happiness at the bottom of Yu Ao’s eyes and thought that if one day he could still remember what he had now after the hypnosis was reversed, he would probably hate that beast to death forever. Why did I have to run his mouth and suggest such a crazy idea? He thought to himself before asking tentatively, “what would you do if that beast died? Ehem, don’t look at me with such scary eyes, I said if, if.”
Yu Ao slowly looked away, “I don’t know,” he thought for a while, “perhaps…I’ll also go with him…”
Long Junhao trembled in his heart, thinking about the sin he’d committed.
“Your Highness?”
“Oh, nothing,” Long Junhao returned to his senses, “well, since Gu Chen isn’t here, I’ll leave. Take care of yourself.” After he finished speaking, he got up and walked out, and then froze.
He saw the big beast, He Tianfan, smoking a cigarette with his back against the wall of the door. How much had he heard? He Tianfan raised his head slightly and the white smoke curled up, slowly covering his eyes.
Long Junhao opened his mouth, “…beast?”
He Tianfan glanced at him and pinched the cigarette in his hand. Without saying a word, he opened the door and went in.
Long Junhao watched his back disappear through the crack of the door. He felt that this beast had changed a little but he didn’t know what had changed. He frowned in confusion and thought for a while but couldn’t figure out anything. He needed to find someone to analyse it for him so he turned away and went to find his concubine, Gu Chen.
