The Real Young Master Was Sold as a Slave, The Obsessive Crown Prince's Forced Love - Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Be My Concubine?

Being exposed while eavesdropping made Song Yu a little terrified.

Especially after seeing the comment: 【…eavesdropped on Qi Wang and Ba Liang’s conversation and was kicked to death by Qi Wang.】

But he managed to keep his composure.

After all, the Crown Prince didn’t let Ban Jin truly interrogate him that day when he confessed.

Now that Ban Jin had investigated and verified that he spoke the truth, the Crown Prince surely wouldn’t do anything to him, right?

Besides, the Crown Prince had sent Ban Jin and Ba Liang out on assignment.

His thoughts raced. Song Yu let out a soft sigh and smiled brightly at Qi Wang.

“Your Highness caught me.

“But it’s not my fault. No, not ‘I,’ but this commoner.

“Your Highness has been unconscious for days and wouldn’t know, but this commoner is exhausted.

“Your Highness had a high fever while you were unconscious. This commoner had to apply and change the medicine on your wounds and also keep your temperature down.

“I’ve been watching over you day and night.

“That’s why I was so careless just now, falling asleep right here.”

Song Yu’s puppy eyes stood out even more obediently on his pale face, especially now that he was acting innocent and trying to evoke pity.

“I originally wanted to leave.

“But Brother Ban Jin said the investigation was complete, and this commoner was worried that Brother Ban Jin might have missed something.

“After all, my innocence is at stake.

“That’s why this commoner listened in.”

After finishing his innocent, pitiful explanation, Song Yu tilted his head, his dark eyes looking at Qi Wang.

“Can Your Highness please not be angry?”

【My god, Little Fish is so good at coaxing people.】

【If anyone else said this, I wouldn’t think much of it, but paired with his face and his tone, it makes me really want to pinch his cheeks!】

【Too bad Qi Wang is a murderous villain. Hard to say what he’ll do.】

Qi Wang leaned back, watching the person in front of him.

He had just been caught feigning sleep, and there were still marks on his face from where his sleeve had pressed against it.

His mouth was opening and closing, taking credit, selling his suffering, and trying to curry favor…

But as someone who had just woken up, his clothes were messy, his collar crooked, revealing half of his collarbone. Because he had been sleeping face-down, the collarbone was pressed and red…

Staring at the tiny black mole on the collarbone for a moment, Qi Wang asked slowly and expressionlessly, “Do you know what happened to the last person who eavesdropped on me?”

Song Yu blurted out, “He was kicked to death by Your Highness!”

Qi Wang: …

This was the last answer Qi Wang expected.

After hearing it, he couldn’t help but pause, then a strange, subtle smile appeared on his expressionless face, and his eyebrow arched slightly.

The bullet comments: …

【You’re so proud of that?】

【You just eavesdropped on him too!】

Meeting Qi Wang’s raised eyebrow, Song Yu leaned in slightly, his body pressed against the edge of the kang.

“But this commoner is different from them. They eavesdropped with malicious intent, but this commoner has no malice! This commoner would never harm Your Highness!”

Qi Wang didn’t know if he was confused from his illness or just bored while recuperating. Looking at Song Yu’s dark eyes and lively face, he felt a slight urge to tease him. “You say you don’t, but how can I know for sure?”

Song Yu immediately raised three fingers to his ear.

“This commoner can swear! If this commoner harms Your Highness, may I be struck by lightning and die a terrible death!”

He swore so earnestly that Qi Wang found it difficult to tease him further.

He was about to tell him to step back when Song Yu suddenly leaned his upper body onto the kang, propping himself up on his elbows and scooting closer.

Qi Wang looked at the head that was approaching.

As Song Yu leaned over, his tongue flicked out and licked his lips.

“And this commoner is of great use to Your Highness.”

Qi Wang stared at Song Yu’s recently licked lips. “What use?”

“This commoner was sold by Earl Anping’s manor and was about to be secretly bought back by Gu Zhen. Your Highness, what do you think would happen if this commoner suddenly appeared in the capital?

“Earl Anping’s manor clearly knew about Your Highness’s assassination but didn’t come to save you, and even set up an ambush in Shiliu Alley. They are definitely not good people.

“Your Highness should take this commoner with you when you return to the capital.

“Once we’re back in the capital, just use this commoner as bait. I can definitely hook a big fish for Your Highness.”

【Little Fish, I can hear your abacus beads clicking on my face!】

【Little Fish, I can hear your abacus beads clicking in my snail rice noodles!】

【I knew it! Little Fish’s earlier statements were definitely to set a trap for Earl Anping’s manor. Sure enough!】

【He wants to leverage the Crown Prince’s power. I must say, it’s a good idea.】

【Looking forward to the cooperation between the Crown Prince and Little Fish!】

Song Yu threw out everything he had planned beforehand.

When he finished, his eyes were full of expectation as he looked at Qi Wang.

I am very valuable, you know~

Qi Wang met his gaze, looking at him for a moment, then suddenly reached out and pinched Song Yu’s chin.

Song Yu was forced to look up, his lips slightly parted, a little muffled, “Your Highness?”

In his eyes and on his face was confusion and a faint panic.

Despite his plotting, the man was the Crown Prince, and he was a commoner. Losing his life was just a blink of an eye.

In short, he was gambling.

Qi Wang pinched the delicate skin on Song Yu’s chin, enjoying the panic welling up in his eyes. The thumb pinching his chin moved up little by little, pressing against his lips.

【???】

【This scene is suddenly very lewd!】

【Holy crap, my tragic and handsome Crown Prince’s current expression has a sick, twisted beauty to it!】

【He’s rubbing him up, wouldn’t a kiss be reasonable?】

【Are you people sick? They have no feelings for each other, why kiss?】

Song Yu strongly agreed.

Exactly! Exactly!

The rough pad of his thumb rubbed the scarlet lips. Qi Wang looked at the red lips he had just rubbed and was silent for a long time before saying, “You won’t have any malicious intent toward me?”

Song Yu, in the posture of having his lips rubbed, shook his head like a chick, assuring him, “No!”

His eyes were completely clear.

Qi Wang asked, “Then, how do you plan to be bait and catch a big fish for me?”

Song Yu had already thought of this.

Just as he was about to answer—

Qi Wang said faintly, “How about you become my concubine? Is this identity enough for you to catch a big fish for me?”
