Chapter 247 If You Can't Give It, Then Break Up
Su Xing didn't open his eyes until noon the next day, but the moment he opened his eyes, he closed them again because of a headache.
He pressed his eyebrows hard and vowed never to drink again.
I don’t know how long I rubbed it, but the feeling of being worse than death finally eased a little.
Only then did he have time to recall what happened yesterday after he drank too much. How did he leave the restaurant? What happened to the Shangshu Mansion again?
But he thought and thought, and couldn't remember anything at all.
He only vaguely remembered being hugged for a long time, and that embrace looked very much like Ye Linghan.
Su Xing smiled bitterly and shook his head. It seemed that he was dreaming. How could it be possible?
But when he thought of Ye Linghan, he naturally thought of war.
He couldn't delay any longer, he had to find Ye Linghan and tell him everything he needed to say.
Otherwise, by the time Ye Linghan goes to the battle, it will be too late.
Thinking of this, Su Xing ignored his headache and quickly threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
Although he was in a hurry, he still tidied up a little.
But after cleaning up and looking at himself in the mirror, he felt a little ridiculous.
Never mind, just do your best, he comforted himself in his heart.
Having not been here for some time, Su Xing felt that the Regent's Palace was somewhat unfamiliar.
He hesitated at the door for a long time before walking forward nervously.
He was a little worried, wondering whether Ye Linghan would order him not to enter the mansion.
Fortunately, he was overthinking it, as the guards at the door were as enthusiastic towards him as before.
Just as he guessed, Ye Linghan was still in the study.
But he didn't expect that Ye Lingchen and Yue Cen were also there.
"Su Xing!" Ye Lingchen exclaimed and stepped forward: "Why are you here?"
He regretted saying this. Of course Su Xing came to find Ye Linghan. Why was he so confused?
Su Xing was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to answer, and he didn't dare to look at the people in the room, especially Ye Linghan.
Ye Lingchen blamed himself and quickly changed the subject to make amends: "Su Xing, were you okay yesterday? I wanted to go to the Shangshu Mansion to find you later."
Su Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed Ye Lingchen's words and replied, "I'm sorry to have worried you, Your Highness. I'm fine."
"That's good." Ye Lingchen smiled with relief, and continued: "We drank too much yesterday. When I woke up today, I found out that it was Yue Cen who took me back. You know..."
"Have you said enough?" Ye Linghan's cold shout suddenly came, and Ye Lingchen was startled. He subconsciously turned his head to look over.
Su Xing also looked up at Ye Linghan, but saw a hint of unnaturalness flash across Ye Linghan's face, but he felt that he had seen it wrong.
Ye Lingchen also saw it and understood something instantly.
He stopped talking, but the corners of his mouth curled up inadvertently.
Yue Cen spoke at the right moment: "Prince Regent, I still think that the most urgent task is to find the Crown Prince of Wu first."
Ye Linghan retracted his gaze and snorted coldly: "This may just be an excuse for Wu to send troops. The crown prince of Wu may not be in Ye Kingdom."
Su Xing's heart tightened. They were discussing the war...
"Royal brother." Ye Lingchen had now completely become Yue Cen's man, and agreed with whatever Yue Cen said: "Whether it's an excuse or not, we have to try. If we find it, it will be very beneficial to us."
Ye Linghan glared at Ye Lingchen fiercely and said coldly: "Of course I will look for him, but you'd better not hold out hope. According to Yingyi's information, the prince is probably in danger!"
After these words were spoken, Yue Cen and Ye Lingchen fell silent. They both frowned and fell into deep thought.
Su Xing was confused and couldn't help asking, "Why is the prince of Wu in Ye Kingdom?"
Hearing this, several people looked at Su Xing at the same time, and Su Xing instantly realized that he had crossed the line.
He had no right to interfere in such matters, especially given his current relationship with Ye Linghan.
Ye Lingchen slapped his forehead, looking apologetic for his negligence, and explained to Su Xing: "There was a civil strife in Wu. It is said that the crown prince was injured and fled to Ye country. Now they are slandering us for capturing their crown prince and want to use this as an excuse to attack us."
Su Xing had not expected that the Crown Prince of Wu would have such a great influence on the Kingdom of Ye. He immediately forgot about the matter of crossing the line and asked, "What does the Crown Prince look like? Does he have any special features?"
It would be easier to find if there was a portrait. He's free anyway, so we could look for it together.
Ye Lingchen was about to answer, but was interrupted by Ye Linghan gloomily: "This matter has nothing to do with you! You don't need to meddle in other people's business!"
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.
In fact, the embarrassment mainly came from Su Xing. He didn't expect Ye Linghan to be so excessive.
It would have been fine when they were alone, but now that Ye Lingchen and Yue Cen were here, they showed him no mercy at all.
The strong sense of shame made Su Xing's face turn from red to white, and then from white to red.
His eyes trembled violently, and the intense emotions hidden in them were ready to burst out, but he bit his lips desperately to restrain himself.
Because he knew that even if he had an attack, he would be the one who would be embarrassed in the end.
He was already in a bad enough state, and didn't want Ye Lingchen and the others to see him in an even more embarrassing state.
Ye Lingchen couldn't help it. He jumped out immediately and said fearlessly: "Brother, how can you say that? Have you ever considered Su Xing's feelings? Su Xing meant well, and you didn't appreciate it, but you humiliated him like this."
"Shut up!" Ye Linghan shouted angrily, his black eyes revealing a terrible murderous intent.
Ye Lingchen trembled uncontrollably, but he did not back down, because Yue Cen suddenly came to his side, giving him great courage.
"Royal brother." Ye Lingchen continued, "Su Xing is the person you want to spend your life with, not your subordinate. You shouldn't treat him the same way you treat your subordinates!"
"Ye Lingchen." Ye Linghan's expression became increasingly ugly, and the murderous aura on his body became increasingly strong: "Don't think that you can act recklessly just because Yue Cen is protecting you. This king..."
"Enough!" Su Xing finally couldn't help but explode. He didn't want Ye Lingchen to be implicated in order to protect him.
This roar instantly attracted everyone's attention. Su Xing's face was red, almost bleeding, but he did not back down: "I came to the Regent today to make things clear. Although I am of low status and cannot be compared with the Regent, I am also a human being and need to be respected."
"I'm neither a waste nor a fool. I have ideas and abilities. I have things I want to do and friends I want to make." Su Xing became more and more courageous as he spoke: "If the Regent cannot give it to me, we can only separate. I don't want to force myself anymore."
The atmosphere in the study became extremely quiet, but there was a hint of restlessness in the quietness.
Ye Lingchen looked at Su Xing worriedly, wanting to say something but not knowing how to start.
Yue Cen kept looking at Ye Linghan warily, ready at all times.
Ye Linghan stared at Su Xing, undercurrents surging in his dark eyes, and it was unknown what terrible storm was brewing.
At this moment, Tianyi suddenly came in and said, "Regent, the portrait of the Crown Prince of Wu has been delivered."
Several people subconsciously looked at the portrait that Tianyi was holding high. Su Xing's face changed and he blurted out: "I know where he is!"
