Chapter 470 Little Brother’s Concerns
The fourth prince revealed a smile and said, “This is who I’ve always been from the beginning. The one that you met was a facade that I had to put on because of my position. So rather, the me that you’re seeing now is the real me.”
Lin Fan looked at him for a bit before shaking his head with a bitter laugh.
But in the end, he walked over to the fourth prince and patted him on the shoulder since he could sympathize with him.
It wasn’t hard for him to imagine what kind of things the fourth prince had to deal with up until now.
After all, he had read plenty of novels about palace struggles back on Earth.
He knew how bad it was on Earth without any cultivation, so he could guess that it was even worse when it came to a world that was filled with cultivators.
The fourth prince was surprised to see this since it was different from how Lin Fan had treated him up to now, but he was still happy to see this.
Since he had already settled this matter, Lin Fan decided to have dinner with the fourth prince. After all, there was no way that he would be able to go back home with the all girls meeting going on, so he had to find something else to do.
The fourth prince could be considered his brother in law, so it should be fine.
As it turned out, it really was fine for him to have a meal with him.
He had been worried that the fourth prince would act the way that he had acted on their journey, but he found that the fourth prince seemed to have taken a hint and stopped trying to get closer to him in that way.
This was a relief since he really didn’t know how to deal with the fourth prince if he had continued acting this way.
But since the matter had solved itself, there was no need for him to worry about this.
However, there was another problem that presented itself.
While they were having fun eating and drinking, there were a group of girls that had suddenly burst into the residence.
Leading them was Yue Lan and Mu Bao Bao.
Both Lin Fan and the fourth prince were taken aback by these girls suddenly raiding them like this, but Lin Fan then asked, “Is there something…”
Before he could say the word ‘wrong’, there were girls that had appeared on both his sides.
It was Lala and Xiao Yue.
Lin Fan didn’t know how to react to this, but they didn’t give him that chance to react as they suddenly lifted him up by his arms. They lifted him off the cushion that he had been sitting on and brought him over to the rest of the girls.𝒩𝔬𝑽𝗅xt.𝑪𝐎𝗆
Once he had been secured, the girls immediately moved in front of him and created a human shield in between him and the fourth prince.
The fourth prince was completely confused by this, but Lin Fan could guess what this was about based on their expressions. It seemed that they had somehow come to a misunderstanding about all of this.
It seemed like Mu Bao Bao had told them about his and her suspicions about the fourth prince.
Lin Fan opened his mouth to say, “It isn’t like…”
But before he could finish, he was immediately silenced by all of the girls glaring at him.
Lin Fan could just sit there with a bitter smile on his face as he watched what would happen.
He would step in if things went too far, but before that…he was helpless.
He could only wish the fourth prince the best of luck dealing with these girls.
The fourth prince saw the look on Lin Fan’s face and was even more confused about all of this.
But he had been trained in etiquette, so he calmed himself down and revealed a respectful smile before saying, “Brother in law, are these beautiful ladies your subordinates? Are they here for some matter?”
Yue Lan shook her head and said, “We’re his wives and we’re here to see what kind of intentions you have.”
“Wives?” The fourth prince repeated with a confused look, but then he suddenly revealed a shocked look. He immediately turned to look at Mu Bao Bao, but he found that she wasn’t affected by this at all. Instead, she was glaring at him just like the other girls were.
The fourth prince turned back to Lin Fan and asked, “Brother in law, is this true? Are all of these girls your wives?”
But Lin Fan wasn’t allowed to answer as Yue Lan said, “That is not the main question. The main question is, what are you doing here?”
The fourth prince was taken aback by all of this, but he was also a smart person and quickly figured out what the situation was. He could tell by the way that they all acted around Yue Lan that she was indeed in charge here, this was something that was acknowledged by both Mu Bao Bao and Lin Fan.
So he took a deep breath and said, “I’m here to support big sister and brother in law, that is what royal father has ordered.”
Yue Lan narrowed her eyes to look at him before saying, “Is that really all that you’re here to do?”
The fourth prince revealed a confused look when he heard this as if he couldn’t understand what she was saying.
Yue Lan kept looking at him with the same narrowed eyes as she said, “You say that these are your official orders, but what about your personal feelings? Are you really just here to help the two of them?”
The fourth prince revealed an even more confused look when he heard this as he said, “Personal feelings? My personal feelings are just that I want to help my big sister and brother in law. I have no idea what you mean.”
Yue Lan kept looking at him for a while before suddenly giving a snort, as if she didn’t believe him.
The fourth prince had never been as confused in his life as he was now.
He just couldn’t understand what was happening here.
After a long silence, Yue Lan finally said, “As long as you do your thing and never be with Lin Fan alone, we’ll be fine with it. Remember, you can never be with Lin Fan alone, one of us will always have to be with the two of you.”
Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile as if he could see the misunderstandings getting worse, but at this point, he really couldn’t say anything. He could see that these girls had already made up their minds, so he wouldn’t be able to do a thing.
He just prayed for the best for the fourth prince.
Since they had settled this matter, Yue Lan and the others didn’t stay here any longer.
They held Lin Fan by both of his arms and escorted him out of this place, as if he was some kind of criminal.
As he walked out, Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling that he really was lucky that he had all of their ‘love’.
But as they were leaving, the fourth prince suddenly caught up to Mu Bao Bao and grabbed her by the arm.
Mu Bao Bao stopped and turned to look at him, but there was an impatient and annoyed look in her eyes.
The fourth prince was taken aback since he hadn’t seen this look in her eyes before, or at least he had never seen this look directed at him.
But he overcame this fear and said, “Big sister, are you really alright with this? Are you really alright with him having all of these wives? You are the future ruler of this empire, are you sure that you should be sharing a man with all of these women? You should know how this will make you look in the eyes of your subjects.”
Mu Bao Bao looked at him and said, “If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have accepted the plan of becoming the empress in the first place. Before I am the empress, I am his woman.”
The fourth prince still had a concerned look as he said, “But with all of those women, are you sure that he…”
Before he could finish, Mu Bao Bao suddenly pulled her sword out and pointed it at his throat. She said in a cold voice, “Don’t you ever try to cast doubt on his love, it is the only thing that I had after I lost everything.”
The fourth prince gave a nervous gulp, but he still said, “Big sister, this isn’t fair to you though.”
Mu Bao Bao pulled her sword away from his neck and said, “We were the ones that agreed to this, so you don’t have anything to say. If we agree, there’s no place for you to cause trouble.”
Without waiting for him to say anything, Mu Bao Bao turned around to follow the rest of them out.
But the fourth prince still had a worried look on his face.
He had heard from his royal father that he had approved of Lin Fan, but he was sure that his royal father didn’t know about this. Otherwise, he would have never approved of Mu Bao Bao being with Lin Fan.
His big sister was just one of many women that Lin Fan loved…how could that be right?
This was just wronging her.
So the fourth prince secretly made up his mind…
He would get justice back for his big sister.
