The Return of a Prodigal Son 16



Jiang Lusheng took Yunxing into a teahouse and asked for a private room.

"What would you like to drink, sir?"

Jiang Lusheng looked at Yun Xing, who had a cold expression on his face. "Second Young Master Jiang, just order for yourself. I won't drink."

Huai Xiu looked annoyed, "My Lord, you have good intentions, but why do you speak like poison to me?"

Yun Xing glanced at him and ignored him. Huai Xiu became even angrier. What kind of person is this? So arrogant?

Jiang Lusheng remained calm, spoke a few words to the waiter and asked him to leave.

After the door of the private room was closed, Yun Xing looked at Huai Xiu and said, "Let him go out too."

Huai Xiu immediately got angry. "Don't go too far! My son is the future Prince Rong. You are in the same room with him, and you have no clear background. Who knows if you have bad intentions? Now you let me go. What if you attack my son?"

Yun Xing sneered, "If I had tried to do anything to him, he would have been dead long ago."

As he said this, he pulled out the silver hairpin on his head and stabbed Jiang Lusheng fiercely.

Huaixiu was shocked, "Sir, be careful!"

He wanted to stand in front of Jiang Lusheng, but was pushed away by Jiang Lusheng. Jiang Lusheng's other hand quickly grabbed Yunxing's wrist, and he spun around and stood behind Yunxing, pointing the silver hairpin at Yunxing's neck.

Yun Xing was shocked, and his calmness and composure all the way were shattered at this moment.

"Do you know martial arts?"

Huaixiu also wanted to ask.

Jiang Lusheng ignored Yunxing, raised his eyes to look at Huaixiu, and said lightly, "Go and guard outside, and tell me when someone comes."

Huaixiu turned around and left in a daze. Only after the door closed did he realize, was that really their young master? How come he didn't know when the young master learned martial arts?

However, he definitely couldn't go in and ask now, so Huaixiu could only wait outside anxiously.

In the private room, Jiang Lusheng lowered his eyes and looked at Yun Xing, smiling slightly, "Now, sir, can you speak frankly?"

Yun Xing looked at the silver hairpin so close to him, gritted his teeth, and said coldly, "Second Young Master Jiang is actually a hidden master. Your purpose in approaching the prince is really curious."

"Curious? I'm attracted to the prince and want to marry him, that's all. What's there to be curious about?"

"That's all?" Yun Xing suddenly became excited. He pushed Jiang Lusheng's hand away, stood up, turned around and faced Jiang Lusheng, his eyes full of anger.

Jiang Lusheng narrowed his eyes. Could this inexplicable hostility be the result of Prince Rong's romantic debts outside?

This realization made him feel a little unhappy.

"Who are you anyway? It doesn't seem like it's the place of an outsider to tell me what's going on between me and Prince Rong, right?"

Jiang Lusheng deliberately provoked him, and as expected, Yun Xing's face suddenly darkened, "Outsider? The prince and I——"

"Hmm? What's going on between you and the prince?"

Jiang Lusheng asked.

Yun Xing shut his mouth tightly. He almost said, "You didn't even know where you were when he and the prince were making love?"

However, this happened in my previous life and never happened in this life. It would be easy to be exposed, and I had to swallow the words back when they came to my lips, feeling very upset.

“Dongdongdong——”

Huaixiu knocked on the door. "Sir, tea is here."

"Send it in." Jiang Lusheng glanced at Yun Xing and sat down at the table.

Yun Xing flicked his sleeves, snorted, and sat down.

When the waiter came in, he found that the two people had changed seats and the atmosphere was not right. He didn't dare to say much and left quickly after putting down the things.

Huaixiu took a look inside through the crack in the door and saw that neither of them was bleeding. He felt relieved and closed the door again.

Yun Xing was silent for a moment and suddenly said, "It doesn't matter who I am, but you can't marry Prince Rong."

"Heh..." Jiang Lusheng picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, fiddling with the lid slowly. "Sir, don't you think your words are too funny and rude? You don't tell me your identity, but you ask me not to marry Prince Rong? May I ask what your identity is when you say this? An elder of Prince Rong, or a lover?"

"You--" Yun Xing was choked again, as if reminding himself to calm down and not be led by the nose.

His brows darkened, and a murderous look appeared on his face. "I love the prince just as much as you do. No, I love the prince more than you do. I can give her everything you can't. Besides, the prince has someone else in his heart. You won't have a good life if you marry him."

"Someone's in love? You?"

Jiang Lusheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea. The fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth. He raised his eyebrows and thought that this tea was quite good. He might bring Lan Shuang to try it.

"Whether I am or not is none of your business. You should make it clear with the prince now. It's not too late to cancel the engagement."

Yun Xing said with a veiled warning, "You are in poor health and cannot bear children, yet you are urging the prince to dismiss the harem. Do you want her to have no descendants?"

Jiang Lusheng paused, his eyes narrowed slightly. Only the Duke of Yingguo’s Mansion, His Majesty, and Lan Shuang knew about this matter. How could he know so much about it?

A guess flashed through his mind, and Jiang Lusheng looked at Yun Xing seriously.

Yun Xing thought he had hit his sore spot, and he felt guilty, and immediately felt more confident.

"If you really like the prince, you should consider her more. You don't want her to be laughed at, right?"

Yun Xing’s earnest persuasion.

"The prince is not a man of long-lasting love. She may just be liking you for a while now. Once the novelty wears off, she'll get tired of you and will look for someone else."

Seeing Jiang Lusheng remained silent, Yun Xing continued, "On the surface, she dismissed the backyard for you, but how could you not know that she had long been tired of it and was taking this opportunity to make a good reputation for herself? When you marry her and become the legitimate wife, she will continue to stuff people into the mansion. What can you say?"

Yun Xing sighed faintly, "So don't be silly, the prince is not suitable for you."

Jiang Lusheng put down his teacup, and before he could say anything, the door was suddenly kicked open.

"If he's not suitable, who is suitable, you?"

A slightly angry voice sounded, and Yun Xing stood up suddenly in shock, staring at the person at the door in amazement, "Prince?"

Jiang Lusheng curled his lips into a smile, but when he turned around, he put on a cold expression with a hint of grievance in his eyes, which made Lan Shuang's heart tighten.

Lan Shuang's knife-like gaze fell on the culprit, "Yun Xing, you are so brave."

Yun Xing's heart skipped a beat and he knelt down suddenly. "Your Highness, please calm down. That's not what I meant."

"If it's not that, what else could it be? I heard every word clearly from outside." Lan Shuang walked up to Jiang Lusheng and held out her hand, palm facing up. "Don't listen to his nonsense. I'm sincere to you, and the heavens, the earth, the sun, and the moon can bear witness to that."

Yun Xing looked at her hand, his heart full of bitterness, "Prince..."

However, he could only watch Jiang Lusheng put his hand on it, and then it was held tightly by Lan Shuang.

Lan Shuang lowered her eyes and looked at him, as if she were looking at a speck of dust. Her tone was unprecedentedly cold. "Yun Xing, no matter what you think, I will only have Jiang Lusheng as my true ruler in this life. If you get close to him again, don't blame me for being rude."
