Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

Chapter 178



178 THAT EMBARRASSING DAY

“Why are you suddenly asking about Ma Qiao?” Bai Chen finally took his eyes off Ma Qiao who was still walking away from him, and his blue eyes fell on Zhu Ge who was standing beside him.

“Oh?” Zhu Ge replied while tilting his head. “Did I just say something?”

It seemed the man in red was acting innocent, and Bai Chen openly rolled his blue eyes as he replied, “Stop joking around and tell me why you suddenly said that about my servant!”

Zhu Ge acted as if what he just said was just a joke, but Bai Chen didn’t want to easily believe the man’s expression this time. He had known Zhu Ge for almost a month, and he also knew the man’s funny character.

And even when he had a serious expression on his face, Zhu Ge could still act as if he was joking. However, Bai Chen had a feeling that Zhu Ge was hiding something behind his joke facade this time, and that was why he looked at the man with skepticism.

“Right. I was just joking just now, so you don’t have to take my words to heart,” Zhu Ge replied as he nodded his head a few times.

The taller man could even grin at him, and Bai Chen felt like kicking the man’s balls if it could help him get rid of the man’s stupid grin.

“No. I know you were not joking just now,” Bai Chen firmly responded to the man’s statement. “I know you never liked Ma Qiao, but I’m sure you have a reason behind your resentment toward him. Now, you better tell me everything. What do you know about my old servant?”

Maybe Bai Chen wasn’t that smart, but he wasn’t innocent, so he could see that Zhu Ge had specially treated the old servant badly ever since the two of them had met for the first time after he had transmigrated into this world.

.....

For some reason, Ma Qiao also hated Zhu Ge, and the strange behavior between the two men of different ages only raised question marks in Bai Chen’s head.

Meanwhile, Zhu Ge didn’t directly answer Bai Chen’s question, but instead, he glanced in the direction where Ma Qiao walked earlier, but the old servant was no longer in his sight.

It had been a while since the old servant had left the two of them, so it was no wonder that the two of them could no longer see the old figure now.

Knowing that, Zhu Ge sighed before turning to Bai Chen once again. “Don’t trust your servant so easily,” he said firmly, but it couldn’t be said that he was answering Bai Chen’s question.

“What do you mean?” Bai Chen asked the taller man with a frown on his forehead. “Ma Qiao is my loyal servant, and he has been with me since I was a child. Even my mother knew him, so I have no reason not to trust him.”

In fact, Bai Chen knew that he shouldn’t trust people so easily after transmigrating into this world. He kept telling himself that the people in this world were dangerous whether they were related to him by blood or not, and that was why he didn’t want to trust people so easily.

Even with Ma Qiao, Bai Chen had also placed an invisible barrier between them, but he purposely replied to Zhu Ge like that only because he wanted to hear more from Zhu Ge after hearing his refusal.

And perhaps his strategy worked because the man in the red hanfu decided to open his lips to speak again, “What if your old servant is secretly working for your brother behind your back?”

This time, Bai Chen looked a little surprised after hearing Zhu Ge’s question. “What? You suspect Ma Qiao betrayed me by working for my brother behind my back?” He asked, and he could feel his heart skip a beat at the thought of the possibility.

He did doubt Ma Qiao at times, but he never thought that Ma Qiao betrayed him by working for Bai Renshu behind his back. ‘Ma Qiao always looked terrified whenever he met Bai Renshu, so I never thought of that possibility before Zhu Ge told me,’ he secretly pondered in his heart after he questioned the taller man.

He didn’t know much about Ma Qiao, but the old servant told him that he had been with him since he was a child. The old servant also said that he had also worked for Bai Chen’s mother in the past, and it seemed that the servant knew a lot about Bai Chen and his mother.

It seemed that Ma Qiao had always been on Bai Chen’s side since many years ago, and that was why it was almost impossible for the servant to suddenly move to Bai Renshu’s side.

“Something strange happened, and it’s related to Ma Qiao,” Zhu Ge finally spoke again to answer Bai Chen’s question. “Do you remember when you just brought me to your palace for the first time?”

In the end, the black-haired man asked a question instead of answering Bai Chen’s question, and Bai Chen was quite annoyed by it. However, Bai Chen still furrowed his brows to remember the day when he had just brought the taller man into his palace.

Just now Zhu Ge said that something happened back then, and that was why he forced his brain to recall the memories that happened almost a month ago.

‘Wait. Zhu Ge said that the strange thing happened when I brought him to my palace for the first time, but it definitely wasn’t me who brought him back then. I believe it was the real Bai Chen who brought Zhu Ge for the first time to the palace, and that’s when-‘

“Yeah. That’s when you suddenly fainted when we were just about to have sex, Bai Chen.”

And Bai Chen could only try to hide his embarrassment after Zhu Ge ‘helped’ him to remember that embarrassing day.
