Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

That was what Zhu Ge told him briefly more than two weeks ago, but Bai Chen sometimes felt that the man was still hiding something from him. He didn’t know what the man was hiding, but his suspicions caused him not to easily trust the man even after they agreed to have a special relationship with him.

Bai Chen had even admitted that he was no longer the straight metal pipe that couldn’t bend, but it didn’t mean he had trusted the one who had been the cause behind the change in his sexual orientation.

The Werewolf Prince indeed couldn’t trust the young man completely, and he also couldn’t believe the man when the man told him the story related to Ma Qiao.

Unfortunately, before he could question the man any further, he could hear voices coming from an area not far from where he was standing, and it seemed that Zhu Ge had also noticed the hasty movements not far from them.

The two men immediately turned to the source of the sound, and they frowned when they saw how more than a dozen palace guards patrolling the area had suddenly rushed toward a direction, and when Bai Chen and Zhu Ge thought of the direction, they immediately knew where the guards were heading to.

“What happened? Why did those guards rush to the Imperial Palace? And they also look panicked,” Bai Chen muttered as he continued to stare at the guards rushing back to the Imperial Palace.

He had lived in this world for almost a month, and he knew that several guards from the Imperial Palace would patrol around the palace to ensure that there were no threats that could harm the people in the palace.

The guards would also go to some places like the market to make sure no one made a mess there, and they would only return to the Imperial Palace in the afternoon.

.....

It was only midday, but the guards hurriedly returned to the Imperial Palace, and that was why Bai Chen frowned at them.

“Something must have happened in the Imperial Palace,” an answer came from Zhu Ge, and Bai Chen turned his head to face the man wearing the red hanfu again.

Bai Chen could see how Zhu Ge was also frowning at the direction the palace guards were going, and his expression was stiff and gloomy. The Prince couldn’t help but think that Zhu Ge probably knew more than he did about what was happening in the Imperial Palace.

“Do you know what happened there?” Bai Chen finally voiced his curiosity, and Zhu Ge turned to him again.

Before Zhu Ge could answer the question, the two of them could hear a strange sound coming from an area not far from them, and they could see how a flock of crows appeared from the large trees in the area before making a sound that caused Bai Chen’s heart to fall on the ground.

“Do you think someone died in the Imperial Palace?” Bai Chen asked again as his blue eyes remained on the blue sky where the crows were flying in circles while singing their death song.

He still remembered what his mother had said in his previous life, and he also remembered how the Black Death that resembled a crow had also done such a thing in the Forbidden Forest when Shao Meihui died. That was why his facial muscles stiffened as he immediately thought of the worst.

Bai Chen couldn’t hide his worried expression, and he finally got another reply from the man in red, “I’m not sure about that, but if you want to be sure, you should go to the Imperial Palace to check the situation over there.”

Even Zhu Ge wasn’t so sure about it, so Bai Chen knew that he did need to confirm his suspicions by coming to the Imperial Palace.

Nodding his head in response to the man’s statement, Bai Chen spoke again without turning to the taller man, “I’m going to the Imperial Palace now, and you’d better go back to my palace now. I’ll also return to my palace if nothing happens in the Imperial Palace.”

Bai Chen was about to take the first step, but he couldn’t because someone had grabbed his arm. He was forced to turn his head to the side, and he found that it was Zhu Ge who was holding onto his arm.

“What do you want?” The Prince asked the young servant while frowning at the man.

“Take me to the Imperial Palace,” Zhu Ge simply replied, and Bai Chen’s frown deepened upon hearing his answer.

It was more like a request than an answer, and Bai Chen did not expect such a request from the black-haired man.

“Why do you want me to take you to the Imperial Palace?” Bai Chen asked again when he realized that he had never brought Zhu Ge to Rongyao Imperial Palace since he had hired the man as his servant.

Bai Chen would always take Ma Qiao with him when he was about to visit the Imperial Palace, and he would let Zhu Ge patiently wait for him in his palace. This was the first time he had heard such a request from the man wearing red clothes, and that was why he was curious to hear the man’s reasoning.

Zhu Ge sighed, and he once again looked in the direction the palace guards were aiming at. “I have a hunch that something big is happening at the Imperial Palace,” he replied grimly. “The thing that happened in the Imperial Palace might be too big for you, and that’s why I’m worried if you can’t take it well after finding out. That’s why you better take me with you to the palace.”
