Ye Jingguang was still confused, "But I still don't understand, why exactly?"
Qin Kexin had no time to explain, "Just go, don't be so long-winded."
"Oh," Ye Jingguang rubbed the back of his head. "Then I'll take the pastries to Xiao Wu later, and then go play with Momo."
Qin Kexin's eyelids twitched. She finally couldn't help but pull out a second pillow and throw it at him, "Go now!"
"Ouch, I'm going now!" Ye Jingguang ran out, holding his head and bumping against the door.
Qin Kexin pointed at him and complained to Ye Zhu, "You say I'm a shrewd person, how could I have given birth to such an unpromising son?"
Ye Zhu also shook his head helplessly.
He was also wondering, could it be that they had swapped children back then?
Meanwhile, Ye Jingguang came out of the palace and headed towards the cold palace, complaining as he walked about his mother's bad temper these past two days.
Around the corner, another man approached.
Ye Jingguang was stunned for a moment, then snorted, quickly hid in the shadows, picked up a stone the size of a baby's fist from the ground, and held it in his hand.
He waited for the man to get closer.
Then, he mischievously swung his arm in a wide arc and hurled the stone with all his might.
With a 'snap', the stone was caught accurately.
Ye Jingguang was stunned, his eyes full of surprise.
When had this kid learned such a skill?
Just as he was regretting that his attack had failed, he saw blood flowing from Ye Jingkun's palm.
Blood dripped onto the ground, splashing like crimson petals.
Because the stone had been too fast, Ye Jingkun's palm was broken.
Seeing this, Ye Jingguang covered his mouth and chuckled, muttering softly, "Serves you right!"
Ye Jingkun, with a dark expression, threw the stone onto the ground. His sharp ears caught the words, and he quickly turned his head to look.
Ye Jingguang and he made eye contact, and he was startled.
The next second, a cold wind struck from behind him.
Ah Jiu yanked Ye Jingguang by the scruff of his neck and pulled him out of the shadows.
"Let go, hurry up and let me go! How dare you, a servant, lay hands on me? You're too presumptuous!" Ye Jingguang struggled and shouted.
But he soon couldn't shout anymore.
Ye Jingkun stood still, staring at him with cold, murderous eyes, "You're looking for death!"
Ye Jingguang suddenly cowered, his face changing slightly, but he still struggled to pull his neck, "I didn't mean to throw you, my hand slipped."
Ye Jingkun let out a cold laugh, reached out his hand towards him, and then grabbed his neck, his fingers tightening, "Do you know, even if I killed you in the palace now, I could still make it disappear without a trace!"
Ye Jingguang's breathing was suppressed, and he struggled desperately.
Ye Jingkun was taller than him. He lifted his hand slightly, and Ye Jingguang's feet left the ground.
Ye Jingguang let out a whimper, feeling fear for the first time.
This brother, whom he used to bully often, seemed to have truly changed.
"His Highness Prince Kun is truly amazing, capable of making bodies disappear without a trace." A voice, childish yet with a hint of sharpness, came from the side.
Ye Jingkun turned his head to look, his eyes flickered, and his body stiffened slightly.
Did she see it just now?
Damn it, he had finally managed to change her impression of him.
This brat...
Ye Jingkun looked at Ye Jingguang, his gaze growing colder, the thought of killing him becoming stronger.
"Mmm... Momo~" Ye Jingguang reached out towards Su Yunmo, wanting to ask for help.
Seeing that Ye Jingkun was truly about to kill, Su Yunmo quickly walked over, "Ye Jingkun! Stop! Are you crazy!"
Ye Jingkun paused, looked at the little dumpling, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and then let go.
Ye Jingguang was thrown to the ground.
He was so scared he almost cried. He crawled on his knees to hide behind Su Yunmo. Although he was taller than the little dumpling, he now looked like a hen being protected by a chick.
Su Yunmo blocked him, frowning at Ye Jingkun, "This is the imperial palace, you should know that some things cannot be done."
Let alone him murdering a prince, even if his actions just now were seen by others, it would be enough to cause him trouble.
Did he really think he was invincible just because he had Luo Yinfeng?
Ye Jingkun pursed his lips and stared at her for a moment, then picked apart her words, "You're worried about me?"
Su Yunmo's eyelids twitched.
This person was not only annoying now but also very arrogant.
"You're thinking too much, I'm just afraid you'll implicate others," Su Yunmo rolled her eyes.
A smile flashed in Ye Jingkun's eyes, "Come to my manor to play later."
Su Yunmo glanced at him, turned around to pull Ye Jingguang up from the ground, and threw him two words: "No."
"If you don't go, this matter will escalate," Ye Jingkun's tone carried a hint of threat, "But it won't be me murdering him, but him attempting to murder me."
Su Yunmo was stunned for a moment, then looked back. Only then did she notice a bloody stone on the ground, and this man's hand was also bleeding.
The little dumpling's eyelids twitched, and she looked down at the person in front of her, "What did you do?"
Ye Jingguang pouted and muttered timidly, "I just threw a stone at his head, but I didn't hit him."
Su Yunmo's mouth twitched, and she loosened her grip on his hand.
Ye Jingguang fell back to the ground with a 'splat': "Wuwuwu..."
"Are you going or not?" Ye Jingkun'så¬ä¿ voice came.
Su Yunmo rubbed her temples with a headache. She thought about it carefully, her relationship with Ye Jingguang wasn't that good, and it wasn't worth making things difficult for herself for him.
With that thought, Su Yunmo decided not to meddle in this matter.
Having made up her mind, Su Yunmo saw Ye Jingguang's pitiful little eyes.
Su Yunmo: "..."
Fine.
She turned back to Ye Jingkun and said, "Wait for me in the carriage, I'll be there later."
She paused, raised her eyebrows, and added, "I'll go to Prince Kun's manor with you later."
Ye Jingkun's eyes moved slightly, he nodded, cast a cold glance at Ye Jingguang, and turned to leave.
Ye Jingguang's heart skipped a beat at that glance.
But after the man left, he couldn't help but make threats, humming, "What's so great about you, I'm not afraid of you!"
Su Yunmo slapped the back of his head, "If you're not afraid of him, why did you cower?"
Ye Jingguang cried out "ouch," covering the back of his head and wailing, becoming even more aggrieved, "I was just saying it casually."
Besides, who knew Ye Jingkun would suddenly change like this?
Clearly, when he was at the academy, although he was ruthless in his actions, he was still within his control, playing the role of the bullied. How could he have changed so suddenly?
Indeed, the political vortex of the court could change people.
Hmph, looking at it this way, it was better to be a leisurely prince and never go to court.
Seeing him like this, Su Yunmo was a little annoyed, "So why exactly are you targeting Ye Jingkun?"
This brat seemed to have been bullying Ye Jingkun since before?
Given the man's current disposition, it wouldn't be impossible for him to kill him to silence him one day.
