Chapter 105: Damn Problem!

“No, why do I have to be curt to that bastard?” Yun Shu asked with an annoyed voice as she snorted while looking at Yun Si, as if she just saw something unsightly.

“Well, no matter what…! He was still your match for marriage, Shu’er. You shouldn’t act rude like this. Sigh… how should I make you understand, you are not lady-like at all…” Yun Chu whispered as he felt troubled as he pinched his forehead in frustration.

“Whatever, first I’m going to take care of the work here.” Yun Shu didn’t pay him any attention as she grabbed Bai Yunxian’s hand without any prior notice and pulled him into her embrace.

“L-lord Yun…!” Bai Yunxian was surprised as he wasn’t focusing, the sudden pull from Yun Shu wasn’t something he expected.

Right after Yun Si arrived, his old memories came up one by one, Bai Yunxian was feeling sick due to that.

Because this guy is also one of them who ruined his life. He was even more shocked when he heard that Yun Shu was matched for that man.

Well, it was true that Yun Shu was indeed matched with Yun Si when they were young. Because of her excellent wisdom and combat sense, Yun Shu was a step above all the other kids her age. Her swordsmanship was even more proficient than Yun Si, the Crown Prince; because of this, the Emperor proposed the marriage between the both regardless of them being cousins.

“No way! I oppose this match! I have no intention to marry a guy who can’t win against me!”

Yes. It was Yun Shu who vehemently opposed this idea and refused the marriage proposal in the court, in front of all the officials, which became a stain to Yun Si’s reputation forever.

“Why did you do that? We could have discussed the terms first, or you could have proposed the break up to His Majesty in private!” Yun Si ran after her to get an explanation.

“What breaks up when we don’t have anything to do with you at all? Besides, it was the right thing to do for me.” Yun Shu answered nonchalantly.

“What do you mean? I… I can try harder and raise my swordsmanship to your level, it’s not like I can’t do that…” Yun Si tried to reason with her.

“Heh, do you really think that’s the reason I refused? You are still so naive, Your Highness the Crown Prince!” Yun Shu scoffed as she ridiculed him.

“What? Then why?” Yun Si was shocked at her response.

Where was the problem?

Not only was he the Crown Prince of the Empire, he has been working and learning the successor lessons steadily and diligently. He is the one who’ll become the future ruler of this Empire, having everything in this empire in his possession. To be his Crown Princess and the future Empress, mother of the nation, isn’t that the highest position? Isn’t that the dream of every girl?

So what was the damn problem?

“You are the next Emperor of the nation, so what? Do you think I’ll kneel down and lick your shoes just because of that? You’ll have a harem full of women, more than three thousand women will be at your service, what should I do? because I don’t have a damn wish to enter the palace!”

Yun Shu closed off their distance as she poked into Yun Si’s chest and said, “Just like how I never share my shocks with others, I will never share my man with some other whore, I won’t allow it! But the story is different when it comes to you, Yun Si… I’ll never need you!”

After that, Yun Shu turned around and left the palace. Yun Si never had a chance to bring up that reason ever again. And soon, Yun Shu entered the palace as an official, serving under His Majesty the Emperor.

Even if they met occasionally, Yun Shu never behaved with him, nor would she stand still whenever he wanted to say something.

Of course it’s a plot that happened way before the start of the game plot, that’s why it never appeared. Yun Shu got to know this after inheriting the original owner’s memory. But she also hated Yun Si, so there was no reason to act polite with him, is there?

Bai Yunxian’s heart felt empty as he thought, what would Yun Shu look like if she were to become the Empress?

With her wisdom, intelligence and beauty, it wouldn’t be strange for her to take this position and rule over the nation.

He wouldn’t be surprised if Yun Shu chose Yun Si over him. After all, he couldn’t give her the things she wanted, nor could he make her happy.

However, the warm embrace he now had made him forget all the thoughts he had.

’Ah! Looks like I have become too greedy, I couldn’t let go of this warmth she let me, what should I do?’

’Is it alright for me to be a little more greedy?’

Bai Yunxian’s hands slid into Yun Shu’s waist to her back as he hugged her tightly. Yun Shu was surprised at first at the unusual behavior of Bai Yunxian, but his trembling body made her realize something.

’Has his trauma hit back?’

Yun Shu knew for a reason that Bai Yunxian’s memory of Yun Si wasn’t that great. She glared at the guy as she patted Bai Yunxian’s back.

“It’s alright, no one will dare to harm you in my watch. Calm down.”

“!!!”

Yun Shu’s comforting and soft voice which was directed at Bai Yunxian surprised him. Should I just let this misunderstanding continue?

As Bai Yunxian thought, a smile appeared on his face as he buried his face into Yun Shu’s chest, hiding himself.

’What is this?’

’I-is it him acting cute?!’

Yun Shu was pleased and irritated at the same time, her hand slid into her pocket as she took out a space bracelet without a second thought.
