一夜情

It wasn’t his fate to own this dynasty, but he didn’t want it to end up in the hands of the other princes.

Their mother and their mother’s family owed it to them.

However, the person he felt was the most threatening was Xie Heng.

He knew better than anyone else what kind of person Xie Heng was. Not only was he highly capable, but he was also ruthless and at times vicious.

If Xie Heng knew Xie Jun’s real identity, would he become interested in that position?

Xie Jun heeded basically everything that Xie Heng said. If he helped his ninth brother become the emperor, his ninth brother might get convinced by Xie Heng to give up the position to Xie Heng instead. If that happened, the Third Prince felt like even if he died, he would never be able to rest in peace.

“Third Brother, we’re already here in Guangqing Province, so why don’t we ask

Zhao Chuchu to see if there are ways for you to live a bit longer.”

“Heting, Zhao Chuchu doesn’t owe us anything. She and Ms. Yuan are very good friends. You shouldn’t cause a rift in their friendship because of me. Zhao Chuchu already tried her best. Don’t drag her into this anymore. She’s not the most well-tempered person. You won’t gain anything from provoking her.”

Qiao Heting touched his mouth as he thought about the few times that he interacted with Zhao Chuchu. He did suffer quite a few losses from it.

“Take note of what’s going on with the Great Prince and Sikou clan. You can ignore the rest. I will deal with them.” The Third Prince changed the topic of conversation.

“Alright, don’t worry, Third Brother.”

“Heting, I need some silence right now.”

“Okay, I have some other matters to tend to. Please take care of yourself.”

For some reason, Qiao Heting couldn’t stop nagging and talking when he was with the Third Prince. Even the Third Prince couldn’t stand it sometimes.

After Qiao Heting left, the Third Prince went to the table. He ground up some ink, lifted his brush pen, and started practicing calligraphy.

Every time the Third Prince felt happy, he expressed his emotions in this manner instead of showing them in more obvious ways.

As time went on, most people thought that the Third Prince was simply a

laughless, emotionless man who lived on medication.

It was as though he had forgotten how to express emotions because of the suffering that his condition put him through.

But the Third Prince had a wealth of emotions. He was simply used to hiding them inside his heart.

He thought, “Ninth brother, forgive me for not being able to tell you who you are just yet. After I’ve arranged everything, I promise I will give you everything that our father owes you…”

When Zhao Chuchu returned home, she could immediately tell that someone had come to the house during the day.

Xie Jun had finished his homework. He was practicing his horse stance in the courtyard.

When he saw Zhao Chuchu, he didn’t stop his training. Instead, he maintained his stance and greeted her, “Hello, Sis, your back. Third Brother came to see me. He even left me a gift.”

“What did Third Brother give you?

“A set of the four treasures from the study room. I love it.” “Did you thank him?”

“Yes, I even asked him to stay and eat lunch with me.”

Zhao Chuchu felt the corner of her lips twitch a little. She thought, “You just treated your brother to leftovers… Junjun, good job!”

“But I felt a bit sorry that the food was all made in the morning. Sis, Third Brother gave me gifts, so should I treat him to a good meal?”

‘Yes, but wait a few more days when it’s your brother’s off day from the academy, then we’ll invite Third Prince over for dinner, alright?”

“Okay.”

“Third Prince came today. Did you do your homework properly? You didn’t just play the whole day, right?” “No, Third Brother supervised me doing my work!”

“Did he do anything else?”

“No.”

Zhao Chuchu thought about it, then asked in another way, “When you were heating up the food for lunch, did you drop any bowls or utensils?”

“I didn’t, but Third Brother messed up.” Xie Jun felt a little embarrassed talking about it, he said, “He spilled soup on my clothes.”

Zhao Chuc.hu understood what happened.

The Third Prince probably came to confirm Xie Jun’s identity. As she had expected, he was suspicious of Xie Jun.

Zhao Chuchu remembered that there was a birthmark on Xie Jun’s left shoulder blade, and there was an old scar there as well.

The Third Prince probably managed to identify Xie Jun using that.

Zhao Chuchu found out that she was right when Xie Heng came back that night.

Xie Heng nodded and answered, “Yes, the Third Prince said before that the scar was left because he tried to peel the birthmark off when he was young and thought that it looked ugly.”

Zhao Chuchu said, “It’s hard to tell that the Third Prince was so naughty when they were young. His brother was so small. Was he not afraid that he might hurt him?”

“Kids don’t know anything, so it’s not strange for them to do anything. I didn’t tell you before, so how did you guess it?” Xie Heng asked.

“The Third Prince came today and dirtied Junjun’s clothes when they ate lunch today. I just happened to see the birthmark and scar on Junjun i s back by accident.

“The Third Prince came today?”

“Yes..”
