Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Ye Tian Yun came out of the guest hall and gestured to the guard to come.

It had been about half an hour since Zheng Xiang and Bai Qing'er had arrived. Ye Tian Yun wanted to arrange a room for them to stay in for the next few months.

"Go, and prepare a room for these two. They will be staying in the Fang Clan for a long time." He said to the guard.

Just as the guard was about to leave, Ye Tian Yun called back, "Wait."

"Yes, Young Master?"

"Prepare two double rooms. One for these two, and another for one more pair of friends who will visit us in future."

The guard nodded his head and went to arrange the two rooms.

Ye Tian Yun returned to the Guest Hall and staring at the duo in front of him. He said, "I have made arrangements for you two. We will stay here for some months."

Zheng Xiang frowned, "I could have stayed in a tavern. Why create trouble for yourself."

Ye Tian Yun waved his hand, "It's alright, don't worry too much. The clan is big, and I at least have the power to create room for you guys."

"For both of us?" Bai Qing'er frowned.

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "yeah, wait, you will be staying here, right?"

Bai Qing'er shook her head, "No, I need to get back to the Sect. I can't just leave my master; too many things are still unresolved in the Sect."

"Oh?" Ye Tian YUn scratched his chin, "Anything personal? If not, you can share. Maybe I could help you out."

Bai Qing'er shrugged, "Nothing much; it's just Senior Sister Yuan Shuchun."

'Yuan Shuchun…' 

Ye Tian Yun's eyes twitched.

That girl sure is a troublemaker.

"What did she do?"

Bai Qing'er shrugged, "She didn't do anything yet, but she's jealous of me and has a great dislike against me."

"Huh?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "She didn't do anything, but you think she's jealous? Are you sure?"

Bai Qing'er nodded, "I am hundred percent sure. Believe it or not, I am very good at judging people, especially their feelings against me. And all I can see from Senior Sister Yuan is jealousy and dislike."

Ye Tian Yun narrowed, "That's a weird talent…."

"It is," Bai Qing'er gave a wry smile, "Unfortunately, it doesn't work on everyone."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Did it work on Zheng Xiang?"

"Of course," Bai Qing'er smiled, "Why do you think I am still with him if I hadn't felt comfortable."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "True. But, sister-in-law, what does your intuition tell you about me?"

"Wha-what did you just call me?" Bai Qing'er looked at Ye Tian Yun with an incredulous expression; as for Zheng Xiang, he spurted out the wine that he was drinking.

"Cough-cough," Zheng Xiang cleared his throat and said, "Brother Fang, we are just… friends."

"Just friends?" Ye Tian Yun smiled and shook his head.

Bai Qing'er slightly frowned but didn't say anything.

Ye Tian Yun did notice some sadness and disappointment in her eyes, but he wasn't planning to pursue this topic any further, "Forget about that. Answer my question."

Bai Qing'er frowned and said, "Honestly, for some unknown reason, my intuition doesn't work against you."

"What?" Ye Tian Yun smiled, "What do you mean?"

"I can't tell what you think about me."

"Woah?" Ye Tian Yun was surprised, "That's unexpected."

Bai Qing'er nodded, "I was also surprised. But before you feel special, let me tell you that you're not the only one whose thoughts are hard to understand."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun asked, "Who else?"

"Do you know Xiao Ming? I met him at the Heavenly League's banquet. There isn't much impression, but I do remember that I wasn't able to see through his thoughts."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun was surprised at the mention of Xiao Ming.

'That was unexpected….'

"Anyone else?"

"Yeah. There's Gao Xuan too. He's also hard to understand."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Really? That's pretty weird."

"Yes," Bai Qing'er nodded.

Zheng Xiang suddenly asked, "How come your intuition works against me? I thought we had a special bond."

Bai Qing'er shrugged, "Didn't you just say we're just friends."

"Yeah... I mean, that was just…-"

"It's just intuition," Ye Tian Yun interrupted, "Don't think too much. Intuitions are not always right, and you don't feel them every time."

Bai Qing'er wanted to say something, but Zheng Xiang replied before her.

"Yeah, I told her this, but she doesn't listen."

Just then -

"Young Master, the rooms are prepared."

The guard had returned.

"That was pretty fast," Zheng Xiang and Bai Qing'er were surprised.

It had only been a few minutes when the guard left, and the rooms were ready.

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Let's go to your room. You guys need some rest."

Bai Qing'er nodded and helped Zheng Xiang get up.

Ye Tian Yun slightly frowned and gave the latter a pill.

"Here, take this right now."

Zheng Xiang nodded and popped the pill in his mouth before asking, "What was that pill for?"

"Poison."

"What!?"

"Just kidding. It will help you recover from your fatigue. But you should still take some time to rest and recover naturally."

"Oh. Thank you, and don't scare me like that."

Ye Tian YUn smirked at this, "Maybe if you ask before what the pill is before you eat it."

Zheng Xiang shrugged, "You gave the pill, I don't doubt you."

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "That's not what I mean. When your mother cooks a new dish, why do you ask what it is? Because she may have poisoned it or because you're curious."

Zheng Xiang's expression dimmed, but he still replied, "I would still eat it before asking."

Ye Tian Yun was about to say something, but he suddenly noticed a death glare from Bai Qing'er.

'Hm? What did I do now?'

'Oh wait... did I just give him an example of his mother?'

'Damn my insensitive mouth….'
