Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

Chapter 210

210 I HAVE BEEN HIDING SOMETHING

Even if Bai Chen had agreed to be Zhu Ge’s lover, he had to admit that he knew very little about the black-haired man.

He only knew that Zhu Ge was from the Wu Li Empire, and he also knew that the man had previously worked as one of the male prostitutes in the Red Pavilion before he hired the man as his servant about three weeks ago.

Zhu Ge was just a prostitute, but he was quite an educated man as he proudly said that he could even read and write, and the man finally revealed that he came from a rich family in the Wu Li Empire, but because his family had had the misfortune, he had to start working in the Red Pavilion.

That was the only information Bai Chen knew about the taller man, and he couldn’t even be so sure that the information was valid because he had only heard it from Zhu Ge without being able to confirm it.

No one but Zhu Ge gave him testimony that the man in red was telling the truth, and the suspicion in Bai Chen’s heart never died down even if he kept telling himself that he might just be thinking too much, but today he once again felt that Zhu Ge was indeed suspicious with how the man behaved in front of him.

Bai Chen immediately accused Zhu Ge of hiding something, but the man once again looked relaxed as he replied, “So, you want to know the real me, ah?”

“Yes,” Bai Chen also had a calm expression on his face as he answered Zhu Ge’s question. “The way you suddenly threw my fish into the pond was already suspicious to my eyes. And earlier you said that you’re afraid of water, but you can still use your hand to touch me when I’m soaking wet in the tub. It’s already contradictory, and just now you even overreacted when I touched your forehead with my slightly wet finger.”

Bai Chen had listed the reasons why he felt suspicious of Zhu Ge, but the owner of the long black hair still had a calm expression on his face. The man in red had indeed panicked when Bai Chen suddenly touched his forehead with a slightly wet finger, but now the man looked relaxed once again as if his panicked expression had never existed.

“I admit that I did act strangely in front of you,” Zhu Ge calmly responded to Bai Chen. “But I also don’t plan to hide the truth from you anymore, and that’s why I plan to tell you everything today.”

.....

Bai Chen expected that Zhu Ge would go to great lengths to refute his accusations by saying that he was just a delusional Werewolf Prince with his wild imaginations, and that was why he was surprised when the other man easily relented even if he didn’t force the man.

“So, you admit that you’ve been hiding something from me all along? You’re going to tell the truth today?” Bai Chen asked, and even if he was quite annoyed to know that Zhu Ge had been lying to him all along, he couldn’t immediately reprimand the man because he still didn’t know what the man had been hiding all this time.

Bai Chen also didn’t know the reason the man was hiding the secret from him, and that was why he couldn’t just get angry at the man wearing the red hanfu.

“Yes, I admit that I have been hiding something from you,” Zhu Ge sincerely confirmed. “And I promise to tell you everything today, but maybe you should do what you have to do first. Don’t you want to release Bai Renshu’s ashes before you go to see Wu Jinhai today? I’ll tell you everything after you are done with your plans today.”

Bai Chen thought that Zhu Ge would tell the truth right away, but the man skillfully asked for a delay before he could say anything to him, and Bai Chen was actually quite disappointed by it.

He was already very curious about Zhu Ge, and he felt that his head might explode if he couldn’t find an answer right away, but he tried to accept Zhu Ge’s excuse because he did have another plan to do today.

His blue eyes were fixed on the porcelain jar in Zhu Ge’s hand, and he knew that he still had to fulfill Bai Renshu’s final wish regarding the ashes in the jar.

“Alright, I’ll give you a chance to tell me everything after I’m done with my plan for today,” Bai Chen decided, but before Zhu Ge could smile happily after hearing his decision, the Werewolf Prince suddenly added, “But I still have a question for you, Zhu Ge. Maybe it has nothing to do with the thing you’ve been hiding from me all this time, so I hope you’ll answer my question.”

Bai Chen did give Zhu Ge a chance to prepare himself before he could reveal the truth in front of him later, but the Prince didn’t want to be tricked by his young servant either, and that was why he wanted to obtain another information about the man before he could start carrying out his responsibilities related to Bai Renshu’s ashes.

“What do you want to ask me?” Zhu Ge asked, and it seemed that the man was willing to grant Bai Chen’s wish before they could temporarily put a stop to matters related to the things he had been hiding.

“I just want to know more about the Flute Demon who nearly harmed me a month ago in this river,” Bai Chen began his interrogation. “Back then, you suddenly kissed me while covering my ears with your hands. Are you doing that to distract me from the evil melody of the Flue Demon? But, what about you? I don’t think you were affected by that melody back then because you were acting normal even after you stopped kissing me. Am I right, Zhu Ge?”
