CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE
Chapter 342

342 Big Responsible

Finally, with the determined persuasion from ChenMing, BaiYing finished his dinner, at least half of it until he was full, now both of them were sitting in front of BaiYing’s room terrace looking at the sky above them.

ChenMing shifted his seat, tightening the coat covering his younger brother’s back.

“Don’t catch a cold, the air is very cold tonight, according to Grandma sometimes the nights are so cold that it often rains hail here.”

BaiYing turned his head, widening his eyes.

“Really Brother? It’s raining hail? I mean, chunks of ice?”

Chen Ming nodded.

“Yeah, ice cubes, they’re not big, they’re a size of pebbles, at most the size of gemstones, but if you’re outside during hail, it’s quite troublesome, at least, it would hurt your head from being hit by a large number of tiny rocks.”

BaiYing listened carefully, He turned his head to see ChenMing’s very serious face while talking to him, BaiYing couldn’t help but laugh.

“Hehehe”

.....

ChenMing frowned, seeing the kid laughing at him.

“What is it? Is there something strange in my handsome face?” ChenMing asked while feeling his face.

The young king laughed, he laughed, of course, because of ChenMing’s ridiculous and funny expression on his face, and imagined what ChenMing felt when the ice cubes hit his head.

“Hehehehe it must be so hurt brother”

“What? Hit by an ice cube? Well of course, later when it happens Brother will take you, see by yourself if it hurts or not”

“No way, I’m not interested, just go there by yourself”

ChenMing laughed, he laughed because he saw his brother’s laugh after for a while he missed that cheerful face, his sweet lips, with arranged neatly white teeth, the two cute bunny teeth that he had hidden for a long time as he kept on sulking, the sweet dimples that appeared when he pulled his cheeks wide, were exactly the face he liked so much about BaiYing.

“Hehe”

ChenMing finally couldn’t help but stare at his younger brother’s shining face, resting his chin on his head and his hands staring at him, of course, BaiYing became uncomfortable about it.

“Brother” he shook ChenMing’s hand to wake him from his daydream.

“Yes brother, what’s wrong?”

BaiYing narrowed his eyes, seeing ChenMing’s sudden calm behaviour.

“Brother what’s wrong, daydreaming like that, it’s already late, don’t daydream like that, what if a ghost passes by?”

Hearing BaiYing’s shrill voice with his big eyes wide open, ChenMing chuckled again.

“Hey, um, big brother will tell the ghost if it’s useless he disturb me, your brother is not afraid of ghosts at all, instead, XiaoYing the one who is afraid of ghosts, right?”

BaiYing widened his eyes, he shifted his seat against his brother, he was indeed afraid of ghosts, and it’s already dark, how about if suddenly a ghost comes? He regretted his words.

“Brother”

ChenMing laughed. Ie held BaiYing’s hands which were clenched tightly holding onto his sleeves.

“Hehehe, a very great magnificent kid but still afraid of ghost, that’s so funny”

“Don’t mention it again brother, what if they heard it”

“Then what should we call it, they’re really ghosts, ghosts”

“Eh, what if, we change their nicknames, how about, called them as a Little Friends”

“It’s the same thing, that’s how we used to call the ghost”

“Brother please stopped it!”

Out of fear, BaiYing continued to cling to ChenMing, of course, that is the happiest moment for ChenMing, he keeps scaring the boy knowing that the young man would definitely hug him tightly when he was afraid, and he didn’t mind at all, his little brother whom he idolized so much to hug him.

“Hehehehe this cute lousy XiaoYing”

It wasn’t really late that night, but the atmosphere around them was very calm and no one else was doing outdoor activities.

The two brothers were still enjoying the view of the dark sky full of stars, although a small drizzle was occasionally blown by the wind and hit the two of them making the air colder.

BaiYing looked up to see several stars shining above the dark airy sky.

“Brother, will Ying really have to stay here in the future? It’s true, that a palace can’t be without its King, that means, Ying has to stay here right?” BaiYing’s voice was not so excited.

ChenMing held his breath for a while, then let it down heavily.

“Well that’s right, as a King, XiaoYing should stay in this palace, what is a palace without a King” his stern words made BaiYing even more lethargic, his face looks down, put his chin on his knees, no longer arguing with ChenMing. That, unusual, thought ChenMing turning his head to see his brother’s languid face. ChenMing stretched out his hand lifting BaiYing’s chin, sliding it towards him.

“Hey look at your face, why do you look so disappointed like this, can you not accept the fact that your destiny is here? In this palace, not as the concubine of that rotten Crown Prince? Do you want to violate the rules of heaven?”

BaiYing pursed his lips, he shook his head slowly.

“No, Ying didn’t say anything.”

He took a deep breath before continuing his words.

“Brother, do you hate His Highness the Crown Princess that much?”

ChenMing turned his head, he stuttered a bit.

“Eh, who hates him? I’m not!”

“It’s so obvious Brother, every time you talk about him, you will definitely make a loud voice, that person, indeed his heart is hard, sometimes was too hard, first time Ying entered the palace, Ying’s body was almost crushed because he was so rude”

“That’s it. Brother doesn’t like him because of that, that person treats XiaoYing as he pleases like this XiaoYing is nothing and worthless, I really dislike his attitude”

“But, the truth is he is not that kind of person brother, basically, His Majesty’s heart is very gentle, he just didn’t get proper affection after his Mother died, and, his Mother’s death, indirectly cause by Ying’er, Ying, owed him a life debt because of it”

ChenMing looked at his younger brother’s face for a long time. He crossed his arms in front of his chest.

“That’s not what I heard, it was actually you who’s almost died that night for saving his life, that person who owes you a lifetime, not the other way around”

BaiYing smiled, remembering what had happened earlier.

“Heh, yeah, that, is a strange destiny, so much happened, all of that happened in quite a long time, as a lifetime”

“Yeah, it’s very strange, but, who can resist destiny, even when you don’t want to”

ChenMing pulled his lips, disturbed to see his brother’s dispirited face.

“Heh, it can’t be helped, who told brother to fall in love with that heartless person, heh, this, is also the will of the heavens” he continued.

Hearing ChenMing’s words, BaiYing turned his head, looked at his brother’s face for a moment, raised his head, his expression changed, as if realizing what his brother’s words meant just now.

“Brother”

ChenMing looked at BaiYing sharply.

“Yeah, it’s also heaven’s will if you met that Crown Prince, if it wasn’t for him, maybe you wouldn’t be the King as you are today, this palace wouldn’t either exist, XinHua would never have risen, your destiny is indeed very strange, so many words as if, if little brother did not become the Crown Prince’s concubine that day, perhaps brother would have been killed, and, all of this, would never be exist.”

Bai Ying looked at his brother for a moment, tears unknowingly stifling at the corners of his eyes.

“Brother”

ChenMing pulled his two hands behind his back, resting his head slightly up looking at the sky above them.

“Earlier, I had a discussion with grandma, about, what if you live in XinHua and are not allowed to leave the palace, Grandma and the formed officials need at least ten years to crawl before finally standing on par with other small countries, but, grandma scolded me, she said, we should instead thank the Crown Prince because he has made us able to own this country, XiaoYing’s relationship with him really cannot be expressed in anything, words alone cannot measure how big your relationship is, and, Grandma thought, if it has become XiaoYing’s destiny is to become the Crown Prince’s concubine, but...” ChenMing looked at BaiYing, who was already looking at him with teary eyes.

“You are also the King of XinHua, that, can’t be changed, even if it’s not against you, still, XiaoYing has a very big responsibility on XinHua, that will be a serious problem, because those two positions make younger brother have to be in two places at once. , and that’s pretty much impossible right?” Chen Ming continued.

BaiYing lowered his head, wiping away the tears that were still holding in the corners of his eyes, he turn his head on its position again, far ahead, into the dark night forest surrounding PaiHua city.

BaiYing’s breath was heavy, as hot steam came out from holding the air outside which was getting colder and colder. He lowered his head against ChenMing’s shoulder, his cousin stuttered.
