After that day, Wei Kai finally understood exactly what sentiments his General had for Jingwang.

In the past, he only occasionally heard that there could be such a relationship between men, but he only took them as a joke. It had never ever occurred to him that a man would like another man, much less his General liking Jingwang.

Wei Kai was beyond shocked. However, on their return trip to Lin’an from the hunting grounds, he could not bring himself to be disgusted with Jingwang.

After all, Jingwang treated his General very well. The other day, when Pang Shao was humiliating the general, it was Jingwang who designed to save him in time and conceal the fact that his legs were healed; later, Jingwang suddenly fell ill, and the General happened to follow him back to Lin’an for medical treatment. He himself knew that this was absolutely no coincidence.

Although Jingwang was the younger brother of that dog Emperor, he, Wei Kai, also knew that he should seek ways to repay his kindness.

Secondly…

From his perspective, it was clear that Jingwang wasn’t at all interested in his General! It was the General who was interested, but the other, not so much. Whenever the General, who charmed thousands of girls in Yangguan, looked at the man, he looked as if he couldn’t wait to swallow him into his belly.

In all fairness, Wei Kai thought deep inside that the General was quite inhuman.

Jingwang regarded him as a friend, but what about him! Unsuspectingly, he actually had such… such thoughts toward him!

However, although Wei Kai inwardly castigated him, he still protected the General’s shortcomings and felt sorry for him.

Their general had been a bachelor for more than 20 years. Not to mention getting married, it was also his first time even liking someone else. He watched the General ever since they returned to the royal residence, longing for the stars and the moon, sitting pokerfaced in the room and not talking every day, but His Highness Jingwang never spared him a glance.

'

In the ordinary course of events, he shouldn’t spare him a glance.

After all, they had returned to the manor, so of course he and Li Changning would not let the General get hurt. But now, it wasn’t whether their General needed to be taken care of, but whether he… could see his sweetheart.

But Jingwang never came. Only the eunuch under Jingwang came once. Seeing that the General was all right, he could only retreat.

Their general finally spoke.

“Is your Prince okay?” The General asked.

The eunuch replied, “Yes, he’s fine. Doctor Li is highly skilled in medicine. After a few doses of medicine, His Highness has almost recovered. At present, he is still a little weak, but he can move freely!”

Huo Wujiu stilled for a split second.

“That’s fine,” he squeezed out word by word.

Wei Kai was so anxious he almost jumped up.

The words “Then why didn’t he come to see me?” was almost written all over the General’s face.

However, the eunuch seemed to be in a rush and did not notice their General’s expression. He smiled and bowed, and then withdrew.

'

The moment the door closed, a shadow fell on the General’s face, which also made Wei Kai’s heart chill.

He swiftly stepped forward.

But before he could speak, the General, who was sitting still, frowned and rubbed his brows after a long silence.

“Wei Kai,” he called.

Wei Kai quickly responded, “General?”

The General paused for a moment and spoke somewhat hesitantly, “… Help me think about it. How did I make him angry?”

That tone was two points doubtful and three points cautious, which made Wei Kai feel like someone had possessed his General.

He couldn’t bear it any longer.

“… General,” he started, “If you really want to see him, why don’t you take the initiative to visit him?”

Jiang Suizhou did have some thoughts of avoiding Huo Wujiu.

'

He hadn’t forgotten the thoughts he had during his illness that day when he woke up. When he opened his eyes early in the morning, his fever receded, but he stared unblinkingly at his bed canopy. It was just that his head was full of Huo Wujiu.

To his surprise, he was… he was attracted to Huo Wujiu.

Jiang Suizhou felt that after bearing the cut sleeve label for a long time, he had fallen into this illusion. However, after considering carefully and at length, he still had no feelings for men, except for Huo Wujiu. Whenever he thought of him, his heartbeat seemed to beat a few times faster.

… I have sinned, ahh!

His mind went blank. He just felt guilty, making him a little flustered. For a time, he didn’t know how to face Huo Wujiu and let alone face him. Given his chaotic heartbeat at the mere thought and sight of him, he simply acted like an ostrich, staying behind closed doors, and not seeing him for a few days.

Although avoidance was useless, he could delay so that he didn’t have to face the problem directly for the time being.

Soon, May was ushered in.

In recent days, he didn’t visit Huo Wujiu, and sure enough, Huo Wujiu didn’t come find him.

This had always been the case. Huo Wujiu was indifferent, plus his legs were ‘inconvenient’, so he always stayed in the room from morning till night. It was him who took the initiative to visit him. Now that he was hiding from him, they really had no chance to see each other.

Jiang Suizhou felt a little sour in his happiness.

'

After all, the feeling of unrequited love was anything but pleasant.

Hence, in the past few days, Jiang Suizhou was weak and weary due to illness. He didn’t have to go to work, so he shut himself in his room and slept. The Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May could be regarded as a festive day, but now that he was ill, the manor was deserted. The growing festive atmosphere in the city could not float to Jingwang Manor.

Until this day.

After recovering from his illness seventy to eighty percent, he woke up from a nap and sat at the head of the bed to read. The servants in the room were all dismissed. For a time, there was quiet and peace. All he could hear was the rustling of trees in the yard.

Gradually, the sun set.

In that instant, Jiang Suizhou heard the sound of the room door opening. He thought it was Meng Qianshan, so he turned a page in the book without raising his head.

“What is it?” he asked lazily.

Instead, he heard Huo Wujiu’s voice.

“It’s me.”

Jiang Suizhou stiffened from head to toe.

He froze in his place and dared not look up.

For a spell, he had the urge to immediately bury his head under the blanket, so that all his inner thoughts could be hidden from Huo Wujiu.
