Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

Chapter 282

282 WHO IS YU MING?

“Why did your half-brother say that Yu Ming is just a stinky fish? Is it a nickname or something? I don’t know the character ‘Yu’ that’s used in his name, but maybe it’s the one that means fish?” Bai Chen immediately asked Wu Jinhai when the two of them were already inside one of the pavilions in Jing Jing Liutang Palace that was owned by the Eldest Prince of Wu Li.

Wu Jingguo asked Wu Jinhai a question, but Wu Jinhai did not answer him. Instead, the masked man simply told Bai Chen to follow him to his palace, ignoring Wu Jingguo who was grinding his teeth as his questions remained unanswered.

Yes, Wu Jingguo did look quite angry that his half-brother ignored him, and even when Bai Chen slightly turned his head to look at the man in blue once again, he could see how the man didn’t leave immediately, and the man was looking at the three of them with anger in his eyes.

Yu Ming had indeed followed Bai Chen and Wu Jinhai to enter Jing Jing Liutang Palace, but it seemed that the man was very familiar with the palace, and he chose to enter another pavilion instead of following the two of them to enter their private quarters.

“Oh? You recognized that man as my half-brother even if I didn’t introduce you two before?” Wu Jinhai calmly replied to the man in white as he took off his golden mask and placed it on the table within the pavilion.

Right. Wu Jinhai was not aware of the existence of the system that had provided Bai Chen with general information about Wu Jingguo, and that was why the man in red immediately threw up the question.

Fortunately, Bai Chen had gotten smarter, and that was why he wasn’t flustered even after hearing Wu Jinhai’s question.

“I’m not deaf, and neither am I blind,” replied the Werewolf Prince as he crossed his arms over his chest and angrily stared at the older man standing not far from him. “I can hear how you call him ‘His Highness the Crown Prince,’ even Yu Ming calls him ‘Your Highness.’ I can also see how much you hate that man, and I know only one person who can make you exhibit such an aura of hatred, and that person is the one who has stolen your position as Crown Prince in Wu Li.”

Wu Jinhai no longer covered his face with the golden mask because there were only the two of them within the pavilion, and that was why Bai Chen could see how the man smiled proudly at him before bringing his long legs to approach him.

.....

Stopping right in front of him, the black-haired man raised his hand before using it to pat the top of Bai Chen’s head. “My ChenChen is really getting smarter by the day. It makes me want to reward you with something, ChenChen. What do you want from me, hm? I know something that can make you happy,” he said.

It seemed that Bai Chen knew that Wu Jinhai was treating him like a child, but he also knew that the reward that was named would be far from innocent because the man’s head was full of dirty things.

Hence, the Werewolf Prince only gave a loud snort before pushing Wu Jinhai’s hand off the top of his head. “Just answer my question immediately!” He angrily snapped at the taller man. “I wonder why Wu Jingguo called Yu Ming a stinky fish. From your story, I can guess that Wu Jingguo knew about your circumstances, and that’s why the one he should call fish was you, right? Why would he use that insult on Yu Ming instead?”

That was indeed what made Bai Chen feel confused. Wu Jingguo mentioned the word fish, but it was aimed at Yu Ming instead of Wu Jinhai even though it was Wu Jinhai who was poisoned and turned into a half-fish after that incident. Moreover, Bai Chen could also see the hostility from Wu Jingguo’s eyes, and that was why he assumed that the relationship between Wu Jingguo and Yu Ming was not simple.

“Wait. I thought Yu Ming was your relative because he seemed to have a close relationship with you. I thought he was your cousin or something. Was Yu Ming from your mother’s faction that Wu Jingguo ended up hating him?” Bai Chen suddenly thought of another thing before Wu Jinhai could even give him an answer.

After meeting Yu Ming today, Bai Chen was certain that Yu Ming was not only the boss of the Red Pavilion, but that man was somehow an important figure in the Wu Li Empire. It was clear that the man was very close to Wu Jinhai, and the man also seemed too close to the Emperor. That was the reason why Bai Chen thought that Yu Ming was a relative of Wu Jinhai.

“So, Yu Ming and I seem like cousins ??to you, ChenChen?” Wu Jinhai asked back instead of answering, and Bai Chen forced himself not to frown in front of the man in red, knowing that the man didn’t want to see him frown.

“You two aren’t cousins?” Curious, Bai Chen asked again.

Perhaps Wu Jinhai was simply replying to his question with a question, but Bai Chen could understand the meaning behind the words that had just left the man’s lips, and that was why he immediately drew a conclusion from those strings of words.

After hearing his question, Wu Jinhai smiled at him one more time before replying, “You’re right, Yu Ming and I are not cousins, nor are we related by blood.”

Bai Chen was stunned, whether it was because of Wu Jinhai’s smile or the man’s answer. He only noticed how Wu Jinhai smiled more often after he revealed everything about him today, and Bai Chen had to admit that the man had a dazzling smile that might blind him one day.

However, Bai Chen knew that now was not the time to admire Wu Jinhai’s good looks, and that was why he focused his attention on the important information Wu Jinhai had just given him.

“So, what is your relationship with Yu Ming if you two are not related by blood? Who is he, and why does your half-brother hate him so much?”
