Chapter 99.2

Chapter 99.2

A short while later, after the time it takes an incense stick to burn, they arrived at the Chai residence.

Chai Yuxin had already rushed back from the military camp. Seeing the Ninth Prince, she exclaimed with surprise, I just received the message from the palace that you were coming to Great Xia to visit me, but I didnt expect you to really come! Junior brother, its been a long time, I hope youve been well!

Senior sister, Ive come to see you, the Ninth Prince called out softly.

Watching her, dressed in her generals uniform, striding over with a valiant and dashing air, he thought she looked incredibly beautiful.

How can he not be fond of such a senior sister?

However, I heard that you bullied His Majesty on the court; is there such a matter? Chai Yuxins willow brows were furrowed, and she seemed somewhat angry.

The Ninth Prince felt extremely wronged!

Where had he bullied him?

On his first day in the capital city, he had been humiliated by him, forced to kowtow, losing all face!

Upon arriving at his court, he was also scolded by his subjects!

What kind of karma have I wrought!

I also heard that you actually confessed your feelings for me in court, is that true? Chai Yuxins gaze was somewhat dangerous.

The Ninth Prince felt a chill under her stare!

Back when they used to practice martial arts together, he had often been on the receiving end of her staff!

When she fought, she didnt care about anyones status!

However, now that his feelings had been exposed, he might as well speak openly!

Mustering his courage, the Ninth Prince said, Yes, its true! In fact, I have admired you, senior sister, for a long time! I have already made up my mind that I will marry no one but you, senior sister! May I know how you feel about me, senior sister?

Chai Yuxin sighed deeply: Its impossible between us!

Why is it impossible? The Ninth Prince became anxious: Is it because youre being threatened by that foolish emperor? Senior sister, just say the word, and I will definitely send experts to rescue you!

Thats not it. If he dared to threaten me, I would surely beat him until hes searching for his teeth on the ground! Chai Yuxin clenched her little fist.

The Ninth Prince was puzzled: Then why

Look, junior brother!

Chai Yuxin pointed to the large estate beside her: This is my home, the place where Ive grown up from childhood! This is my country, all my relatives are here!

If I leave with you, it would mean abandoning my relatives, abandoning my home, abandoning my country! People have emotions; tell me, how could I bear to leave them behind?

The Ninth Prince opened his mouth but didnt know what to say.

Theres one more thing, as you know, Ive had the dream of becoming a general since I was young!

Chai Yuxins eyes sparkled with excitement: Ive always longed to become a general, to lead troops across thousands of miles of our land, to expel the invaders, to secure the frontiers, and to establish an immortal legacy! To show the world, who says women are inferior to men?

If I go with you, can you make my dream of becoming a general come true? Can you let me lead troops on the battlefield and establish an immortal legacy?

The Ninth Prince said bitterly, I cannot

If he married Chai Yuxin, then her status would be that of a princess!

How would it look for a princess to go out and lead troops into battle?

The Ninth Prince became anxious: But, hes so bad

Chai Yuxin covered her mouth, laughing with joy: I dont know why, but I just like his naughty side!

Ninth Prince:

Although sometimes hes so naughty that I want to smack him, most of the time hes really cute, and Im so happy being with him! Not like you, always pretending to be serious and so gloomy, not fun at all!

Ninth Prince:

So, you see, now I have family, a career, and someone I like. Im not going anywhere; Im staying right here in Great Xia! Junior brother, you might as well give up on that idea. Work hard, I believe you will definitely find your own happiness!

Thank you for your comforting words, senior sister! Ninth Prince said, tears streaming down his face.

Alright, lets not talk about those things from the past! Junior brother, its not often you come to Great Xia, and I, your senior sister, must fulfill my duty as a host. Ill treat you to a big meal! What would you like to eat? Ill arrange it! Chai Yuxin offered generously.

Ninth Prince clutched his wounded chest, Senior sister, I want to drink, to drink until I forget everything!

Chai Yuxin immediately arranged a banquet but also called Lin Beifan over, hoping to resolve the grudge between the two.

Watching Lin Beifan approach with a smile, Ninth Prince was infuriated.

However, for the sake of his senior sister, he restrained himself and said angrily, In the matters of the heart, I have lost to you! But in drinking, I must outdrink you!

After several jars of fine wine, Lin Beifans complexion remained unchanged, while Ninth Prince was completely drunk.

With bleary, drunken eyes, Ninth Prince mumbled, Weve drunk so much, why am I the only one drunk, and youre not

As the saying goes, joy brings a refreshed spirit! I have just learned that Yuxin has given her heart to me, and I am overjoyed! When one is happy, they naturally cannot get drunk, dont you think? Lin Beifan said with great pride.

The Ninth Prince was dealt a heavy blow and downed several more drinks.

Lin Beifan advised, Stop drinking. As the saying goes, theres plenty of fish in the sea! Yuxin may not fancy you, but there are still many women who do. Its just that youre not approaching it the right way!

How should I approach it?

Go to the brothel, the pleasure quarters, the red-light district. As long as youre willing to pay the right price, I guarantee they will love you to death!

Ah! The Ninth Prince poured himself several more drinks.

Its just a heartbreak, whats the big deal? Who hasnt experienced it? In the world of love, not being able to be with the one you like is the norm! So, you need to pull yourself together! Lin Beifan encouraged.

Ninth Prince lifted his bleary eyes, Could it be youve also experienced a broken heart?

Lin Beifan shook his head, his voice tinged with bitterness, Not at all! My life has been smooth sailing, too sweet, in fact. I wanted to taste the bitterness of love, but it turned out to be even sweeter! These women are like moths to a flame, swarming around me so tightly that I cant even find the space to experience heartbreak! Can you understand this kind of torment?

Ah! Ninth Prince poured himself another drink, becoming so drunk that he lost consciousness.

Chai Yuxin gave Lin Beifan a reproachful look, I asked you to come and console him, not to agitate him!

Lin Beifan defended himself confidently, This is called shock therapy! His heartache is so severe that hes given up on himself! Only by giving him enough stimulation can he be reborn from the ashes and return transformed, like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis!

And what if it still doesnt work?

No worries, just stimulate him a few more times, and it will definitely work out in the end!
