Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

And the three people standing in front of him were no exception. His pair of sharp eyes had also been observing them since they were still in the Rongyao Imperial Palace.

Not only did his eyes continue to work when his mouth was tightly closed, but his ears also worked very well because he was constantly listening to the conversations around him.

Thanks to his eyes and ears that had worked hard, now he could tell the identity of the three men in black.

The three of them were special guards hired by the Dong Lang Empire to guard Shao Meihui who was also participating in the Beast Hunting Event.

At first, Wu Jinhai was confused to learn that the woman from the Black Werewolf Clan even got such a privilege from the Emperor of Dong Lang. The Emperor had deliberately chosen strong men to protect Shao Meihui when she was in the Forbidden Forest, and it was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

Moreover, he also knew that it was not Shao Meihui’s first time participating in the event, and that was why he was curious to know the reason behind the Emperor’s ‘kindhearted’ act.

And he didn’t have to wait too long before his question got an answer. When they were still on the palace grounds of the Rongyao Imperial Palace, he could see how the woman and her father were talking to a young man, and that young man was none other than Prince Bai Chen.

A pair of golden eyes glanced back to find that the Prince was still sleeping on the ground due to the influence of his power. The golden shield still enveloped the Prince, but Wu Jinhai could still see how the man still had his eyes closed as if he didn’t care about his chaotic surroundings.

.....

Wu Jinhai pretended as if he knew nothing about the Prince’s relationship with Shao Meihui, but he actually knew that the man would marry the girl after the Beast Hunting Event was over.

That fact managed to irritate him, and that was why he was too lazy to help Bai Renshu and Shao Meihui earlier. Why did he have to help someone who would become Bai Chen’s wife in the future? He preferred to be a spectator to see what would happen to the two of them.

However, he was still shocked that the woman ended up being killed when she fought the Three-Headed Snake. Of course, Wu Jinhai also knew that the snake was dangerous. Moreover, he also knew that the snake would have complete regeneration of its body after turning into its original form, and even if some parts of its body were cut off, it would regenerate itself into a more powerful weapon.

Wu Jinhai didn’t know how Shao Meihui ended up being killed by the beast, but he only knew that Bai Renshu had gone mad because of the tragedy. The blue light he had seen earlier was proof that the man was truly insane.

Bai Renshu knew that all werewolves participating in the Beast Hunting Event were not allowed to shapeshift into their wolf forms, but the man didn’t seem to care about that as he immediately transformed after his lover was killed.

Of course, Wu Jinhai didn’t care about that either. He knew that the situation within the Forbidden Forest was not peaceful anymore, and he didn’t think that the werewolf was wrong to transform into a stronger form to defeat the dangerous beast.

Right now, he only cared about the three men who were still standing in front of him.

“The three of you were assigned to be Shao Meihui’s guards, but you are not here to protect your master. Don’t you think that the three of you are irresponsible with your job?” Wu Jinhai asked sarcastically as his golden eyes stared at the three men.

The one in the middle seemed to be the leader. His body was taller and bigger than the other two. His skin was darker, and there was even a cut that might have been caused by a knife or sword on his cheek. His aura was also stronger than the other two, and Wu Jinhai knew that he had to be careful with that man.

“Young Lady Shao herself ordered us to leave her because she was already with His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince is stronger than us, and we believe he will be able to protect Young Lady Shao,” the man in the middle replied calmly.

The man acted as if he didn’t know what happened to the young woman, but it didn’t mean Wu Jinhai would believe what the man had just said. “Is that so?” He asked casually. “Crown Prince Bai Renshu is indeed stronger than the three of you, but when he is alone to fight the dangerous Three-Headed Snake, it won’t be easy for him. It would be easier if he had help by his side to fight the beast.”

Wu Jinhai sounded confident as he rebuked the man’s statement, but actually, he still remembered how Bai Chen had blamed him for Shao Meihui’s death. He had been such a heartless person when he decided to leave the lovebirds behind, but now he could casually blame the three people who had also abandoned the two of them.

“And don’t you think that you should stay near Shao Meihui even if she orders you to leave her? The three of you are responsible for her safety, so you should stay close to her instead of leaving her like this, right?” Wu Jinhai once again spoke when he didn’t receive a response to his earlier statement.

“We just assumed that it would be inappropriate for us to stay near Young Lady Shao when she was with Crown Prince Bai Renshu. They were inside the cave, and we believe they wouldn’t just be chatting in the cave,” the man with the scar on his face finally returned with a confident statement.

Of course, Wu Jinhai also knew that the two lovebirds weren’t just chatting when they were in the cave alone. Instead of speaking with their mouths, the two chose to use their bodies to chat with each other.

The excuse given by the man with the scar on his face wasn’t bad, but Wu Jinhai was still a person who wouldn’t easily believe other people’s words.

“I can understand your reasoning, but don’t you know that the three of you made a mistake by leaving Shao Meihui with Crown Prince Bai Renshu?” Wu Jinhai spoke again. “Bai Renshu failed to protect Shao Meihui, and she was killed by the Three-Headed Snake. Do you know about it?”

Wu Jinhai narrowed his golden eyes as he carefully observed the reactions of the three people, but as he predicted, he did not see the slight reaction on the men’s faces as if they were expecting the information.

He indeed didn’t bother to change back to his brown eyes even if he was facing several people right now. He knew that his identity needed to be kept secret, but since he could guess what kind of people the three men were, he no longer cared about how he should keep his identity a secret.

Once again, the masked man did not receive any response from the three men, and he smirked behind the golden mask before speaking again, “The three of you don’t look surprised by that, so I guess you had guessed that Shao Meihui would be killed in this forest?”

This time, the man with the scar on his face finally replied, “What do you mean by saying that? We were hired to protect Young Lady Shao, so naturally, we don’t want that young lady to be killed.”

Even if Wu Jinhai had voiced his suspicions, the man still dared to say that his opinion was wrong, and behind the golden mask, he smirked again. “Now you know that the person you were supposed to protect has died, but you don’t want to immediately go look for her to confirm that what I said is the truth?” He asked again.

Wu Jinhai continued to smirk as he spoke to the men, but the men would definitely not be able to see his expression because he had hidden it perfectly behind the golden mask. Instead, he could see the expressions of the three men clearly, and that was why he could read the strangeness of the three men.

Once again, he received no response from the three men, and he opened his mouth to voice his bold guess, “You didn’t look surprised after learning that Shao Meihui had died, nor did you immediately go to see for her after hearing the news from me. Is that your real goal? You plan to kill Shao Meihui in this forest?”
