361 BETRAY OR STAY?

Bai Chen could feel how his wrist hurt from Wu Jingguo’s strong grip, but somehow he thought that his heart was more hurting at this moment. That was why he didn’t even try to break free from the strong grip.

He didn’t know much about Wu Jinhai and Wu Jingguo’s relationship, but he blindly thought that Wu Jingguo was an evil brother to Wu Jinhai. That man usurped Wu Jinhai’s position as Wu Li’s Crown Prince, and only an evil brother could do that to his own brother.

In his eyes, it was an extremely lowly act, and he always believed that he was better than Wu Jingguo because he didn’t even try to steal anything from Wu Jinhai. That was his opinion, but now he was forced to change it after witnessing Wu Jingguo’s attitude. He could see Wu Jingguo’s sincerity, and that was why now he knew that his judgment was wrong all along.

Perhaps Wu Jingguo did usurp the title of Crown Prince from Wu Jinhai, but Bai Chen didn’t even know the background story behind it, and that was why he shouldn’t blindly think that he was better than Wu Jingguo, right?

No, he was absolutely no better than Wu Jingguo. Wu Jingguo appeared as a bad brother but turned out to be a good brother in the shadows. On the surface, he appeared to be a good lover for Wu Jinhai, but in the shadows, he couldn’t completely erase the doubts in his heart about his lover.

After hearing how Shao Yaoting offered the antidote to Wu Jinhai, he was worried. Will Wu Jinhai accept the offer? Will Wu Jinhai betray him once again?

Even if the timeline wasn’t the same after he returned to this world, he knew that the scenario was still the same. Shao Yaoting once again tried to tempt Wu Jinhai using the antidote for the fish demon’s poison, but the result was still uncertain. Would Wu Jinhai be tempted and decide to turn his back on him as he had done in his previous life?

That was the reason why Bai Chen still doubted Wu Jinhai even after the masked man gave him half of his soul, and he couldn’t even explain his fear in front of Wu Jingguo and Yu Ming, causing the first name to start doubting him.

“Is it possible if Shao Yaoting really has the antidote, Yu laoban? Or maybe he’s just lying to get Wu Jinhai to come to his side?” Bai Chen suddenly asked a question directed at Yu Ming, and Wu Jingguo turned to him in disbelief.

.....

“You can see it, can’t you, Yu Ming? Even after I verbally attacked him, this person still doubted my brother’s sincerity for him. How can I let go of his hand in this situation?” Wu Jingguo directed the question at Yu Ming, but the sarcasm was obvious to Bai Chen.

Yu Ming could even see how Wu Jingguo tightened his grip on Bai Chen’s wrist, and he shook his head helplessly before saying, “I know you’re panicking just now, but I didn’t expect you to be this stupid, Wu Jingguo. Did you forget that he has two hands? Even if you hold his right hand now, he can still crush the black bead with his left, right?”

“...” Wu Jingguo looked dumbfounded after hearing Yu Ming’s question, and his eyes automatically caught the sight of Bai Chen’s left hand still on the table.

“Prince Bai Chen’s left hand is free, but he didn’t try to use it to destroy the bead, did he? That’s why you should stop overthinking and let go of his right hand immediately. I’ll explain more about the situation after this,” continued Yu Ming, trying to be patient when facing a hot-tempered man like Wu Jingguo.

It seemed that Wu Jingguo was considering what Yu Ming had just said, but then he snorted loudly as he shook off Bai Chen’s wrist violently. With anger remaining on his face, he once again sat down in his seat and motioned for Yu Ming to say what he wanted to say.

The situation finally got better, and Yu Ming once again let out a heavy sigh before focusing his gaze on Bai Chen. “I can say that my father is with the Black Werewolf Clan in Dong Lang now. My father is the strongest fish demon, and he was also the one who poisoned Wu Jinhai many years ago. That’s why I have to say that it’s possible if my father managed to make an antidote for the poison, and it’s also possible that the antidote is in Shao Yaoting’s hands now.”

Bai Chen’s expression stiffened after hearing Yu Ming’s explanation. If the antidote was the real thing, then it would be a good opportunity for Wu Jinhai, right? Bai Chen knew that Wu Jinhai was also an unlucky person like him, and he also knew how much the man had suffered over the years.

Wu Jinhai even tried to kill himself to end his suffering, and that was enough to show that Wu Jinhai wanted to get rid of the poison in his body. After all, the poison had ruined his life, and only the antidote could bring his life back to normal once again.

“I know what you’re thinking, but it is indeed possible for Wu Jinhai to accept the offer, Prince Bai Chen.”

“YU MING!” Wu Jingguo immediately shouted at Yu Ming after hearing how the man in black carelessly said bad things about his brother.

Wu Jingguo’s breath raged, but Yu Ming calmly turned to him again and said, “I said that there is a possibility, but you know that the possibility is not absolute, right, Wu Jingguo? Everything depends on Wu Jinhai himself now, and we can’t blindly guess what decision he will make next. And actually, another person also needs to decide at this time.” He paused as he cast his gaze at Bai Chen this time. “What are you going to do now, Prince Bai Chen? There are two possibilities. First, Wu Jinhai will betray you, second, Wu Jinhai will still be loyal to you and will stay by your side. And if the latter happens, then Wu Jinhai’s life will be in danger because his energy has drained at the moment. So, what’s your decision?”
