514 He Is Your Real Brother

Xie Jun had been looking forward to the Lantern Festival for a long time. But, unfortunately, their plans were jeopardized.

On the 14th day of the new year, someone tried to assassinate Xie Yan.

The entire Imperial City entered lockdown as the Royal Guards patrolled the city and searched every household to look for the culprit.

Xie Jun's plans for the Lantern Festival were ruined.

But he was more worried about Xie Yan.

"Bro, Third Brother is a good person. He'll be fine, right?" Perhaps it was because they were blood-related, but Xie Jun couldn't sit down and focus on studying. He kept feeling like something was going to happen to Xie Yan.

Xie Heng didn't think that Xie Yan would do something so extreme.

Xie Heng didn't know how to answer Xie Jun.

"Bro, can we ask Sis to go to the prince's palace and visit Third Brother? I really don't want anything to happen to him. He treats me so well, just like you."

"Junjun, we are all just normal people. There's no way for us to even get near the prince's palace. People are going to treat us as assassins. He cares about you more than anyone else, so let him worry about you."

"Who is trying to hurt him?"

"His brothers."

"What?!"

Xie Jun couldn't believe it.

His brothers? Isn't that like him and Xie Heng?

Why would Xie Yan's brothers try to hurt him?

"Because they are part of the royal family. Brotherly love doesn't exist there. Everyone is trying to take the throne. So being kind to one's brother means being cruel to oneself."

"But... why?"

"Because of greed."

"But I thought brothers should look after each other."

Xie Jun felt like his worldview was collapsing.

"Yes, but the Third Prince's brothers are different. They will try everything to kill their brother."

Xie Heng told Xie Jun about all the dirty deeds that the royal family had done.

He wanted to prepare Xie Jun mentally.

Xie Heng had wanted to tell Xie Jun about these things for quite a while now. But he saw how innocent and carefree Xie Jun was. He thought about Xie Jun's previous life and couldn't care to let his pure-hearted brother come into contact with the repulsive conflicts that run this world.

But the day had come.

Xie Yan wanted to teach Xie Jun an unforgettable lesson.

Xie Jun would probably return to the royal family after the spring exams.

Xie Heng felt somewhat reluctant.

After all, he had basically brought Xie Jun up. They had been together for two lives now, from his perspective. Even though they weren't related by blood, to him, Xie Jun was no different from a real brother.

Xie Jun remained silent for quite a while.

"Junjun, there's something that I hadn't told you, but I think it's time." Xie Heng held Xie Jun's shoulders and said, "We're not real brothers. The Third Prince is your real brother."

Xie Jun was stunned.

His eyes started turning red as a feeling of sadness from abandonment filled them up. "Brother, do you not want me anymore?"

Xie Heng sighed and hugged him. "Even if we are not blood-related, you are still my only brother. Junjun, your Third Brother has been looking for you all these years. Just like me, he sees you as his only real brother." 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟el.𝚌o𝚖

"Bro, you are lying, right?"

"No, I knew that you were no ordinary child long ago. The whole reason I stayed in Lengshui Village for such a long time is because I wanted to protect you."

Xie Jun came to a sudden realization. He asked, "Bro, were your eyes fine all along? Were you just pretending to be blind for me?"

Xie Heng rubbed his hair and said, "Yes, because I knew who you really are. I don't want you to be involved in their conflicts. But the Third Prince came looking for you, so I had no choice but to confront reality."

"Can I not go back?"

"No, Junjun, everyone is born with a responsibility in this world."

"But I grew up in Lengshui Village. So I'm not related to the Third Prince in any way."

"Do you know how your real mother died? The Third Prince was diagnosed with the same illness as you. If not for your Sis, he would probably be dead by now. Junjun, I know you don't want to make certain decisions. But even if you choose to give up, someone out there will force you to do it."

Xie Jun lowered his head and asked, "Is this what you and the Third Prince want?"

"No, it's your other 'brothers.' Even if you don't want to return to your real family, they won't let you off the hook so easily. They might even wipe out the entire Lengshui Village," Xie Heng said seriously. "Of course, if you choose to run away from all of this, I will bring you away."

Xie Jun didn't immediately give him an answer. He hesitated.
