Chapter 99: The Air Tasted Sour

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

From the moment Si Yuhan sat opposite to him, Ke Ruan seemed to have ignored his existence. His attention was completely on Ke Nuo.

At last, the mammy reminded him, “Your Highness, Her Highness cannot eat any more, or her stomach will be upset at night.”

As a doctor, Ke Ruan naturally knew that such a little child should not eat too much, but Ke Nuo had just tasted a little.

Hearing the mammy’s words, he saw the reluctance and anticipation in Ke Nuo’s eyes.

Ke Ruan rubbed her hair. “Mammy is right. You can’t eat too much one day. Only when you eat less will you remember and miss its taste, right?”

Ke Nuo nodded hard, with her round eyes looking like fresh grapes.

Ke Ruan felt so tenderhearted that he wanted to ruffle her hair.

“If you want to eat it any time in the future, come and ask me, okay?”

She nodded again.

In the end, the mammy reminded that it was late, and she took Ke Nuo back to her living palace.

As soon as they left, Lin Qingye came in. After returning from Yuliang County, Lin Qingye not only acted as his master, but also went to court to watch the movements of Chancellor as well as his gang from time to time.

Ke Ruan really did not know how to express his gratitude towards Lin Qingye’s support.

As the boss, he could do nothing but pay more respect to him  One day in the future, if the male lead still feel like killing him, Lin Qingye would serve as his trump card.

“General Lin,” Ke Ruan was just about to get up to greet him when Lin Qingye stepped forward. Either because of the bumpy road or of his eagerness, he staggered and subconsciously pressed Ke Ruan’s shoulder.

Ke Ruan also subconsciously held Lin Qingye’s arms and they looked into each other.

At the moment, apart from Si Yuhan’s sinister look, there also came Qi Cheng’s cold gaze.

“Is General Lin alright?”

Traces of heat were given off from Lin Qingye’s face and his hands holding Ke Ruan’s shoulder tightened slightly.

Si Yuhan squinted, with a tinge of chillness flashing across his eyes, and his fingers curled up slightly.

Qi Cheng could hear his own teeth grinding.

“General Lin?” Ke Ruan frowned and called again.

Suddenly coming to his senses, Lin Qingye quickly pulled himself up and hid the hurry-scurry in his eyes.

“Your Highness, now everyone in the Red Flame Country suspects that Chancellor is disloyal. Today on the court, Chancellor resigned from the office voluntarily.”

Ke Ruan smiled, “Resigned voluntarily? It seems that he planned to use it to show his loyalty.”

Lin Qingye replied, “But his Majesty didn’t agree.”

It would be strange if His Majesty had agreed. For so many years, the power that Chancellor accumulated in court could not be underestimated. All was but a gimmick.

“I know that we can do nothing now. We can only wait.”

Lin Qingye nodded and looked at Ke Ruan with more admiration. His Highness had really changed a lot.

Having been used to the contemptuous look of Lin Qingye, under this kind of gaze, Ke Ruan’s face turned a little hot. He was probably masochistic.

“Your Highness can also go to court nowadays,” Lin Qingye said abruptly.

At his age, Ke Ruan should have gone to court long ago, but because he was too naughty and arrogant in the past, Ke Zhan didn’t want him to make a spectacle of himself in court. However, now he had achieved several feats .

Ke Ruan nodded. While the power of Chancellor was getting stronger, he could not continue messing around.

“I will tell my father. Rest assured, General Lin.”
