When the two of them went downstairs together, the guests in the living room had different expressions. Everyone in the empire knew that Chu Xingyuan didn't like his fiancé, and Chu Xingyuan had never invited him to his birthday party.

Now they saw Chu Xingyuan and Chen Ye coming downstairs together and they thought they were still asleep. It would be fine if Chen Ye came, but why did he look so familiar and close to Chu Xingyuan?

Chu Xingyuan's expression remained cold. He did not explain anything and just socialized as usual.

There was no one around Chen Ye at first, but later more and more people wanted to make friends with him.

If Chu Xingyuan really recognized Chen Ye's identity, then he would no longer be a fallen nobleman that anyone could step on.

Chen was not very good at dealing with these people with eight hundred minds. Apart from the strategy mission, he didn't want to pay too much attention to other things.

So he went to Chu Xingyuan and told him that he was tired and wanted to rest. Chu Xingyuan asked the servant to take Chen Ye to the guest room.

Chen Ye was half asleep when he heard the door open. He opened his eyes with difficulty and saw an unexpected person.

"Lu Zhirong? What are you doing here?"

Lu Zhirong walked to the bedside and stared at Chen Ye's face. The young man was already extremely handsome, and now that he had just woken up, his cheeks were flushed, and his voice unconsciously had an alluring ending.

Lu Zhirong's Adam's apple rolled and his eyes became dark.

"His Highness asked me to call you down. It's already eight o'clock."

Chen Ye got up from the bed and went downstairs to find that most of the guests had left.

Chu Xingyuan sat in the living room with his long legs crossed and a relaxed posture. After Chen Ye came downstairs, he looked at Chen Ye.

Chen Ye said anxiously: "Your Highness, it's already late, I will go back first."

Chu Xingyuan nodded slightly, and soon Chen disappeared, without mentioning that it was too late and he wanted to stay for another night.

"If Your Highness wants to stay, Young Master can tell him." Lu Zhirong said after observing Chu Xingyuan's expression.

Chu Xingyuan's eyes were indifferent, "You think too much."

Lu Zhirong was the person who knew Chu Xingyuan best. He said, "I feel that His Highness treats Young Master Shi very differently now. His Highness had always resisted this marriage, but is he willing to accept it now?"

In the end, Lu Zhirong asked what he had always wanted to ask. He hoped to hear a negative answer. He hoped that what he saw was an illusion and that Chu Xingyuan did not like Chen Ye.

"The marriage was decided by His Majesty. As long as Shi Jing doesn't make any serious mistakes, I have no reason to refuse. He doesn't cause trouble now and can be a qualified prince's consort."

Lu Zhirong pulled the corner of his mouth, "Is that so."

……

On the other hand, Chen also asked the driver to drive faster. He promised Cheng Lang that he would go back in the evening, but it was almost half past eight now, and it would be ten o'clock when he got home. He didn't know whether Cheng Lang would feel that he was stood up and leave in anger.

As soon as the car stopped, Chen opened the door and got out.

When I pushed the door open, the living room was dark and everyone in the family had already gone to bed.

Chen Ye quickly went upstairs and pushed open Cheng Lang's door without much hope, but sure enough, Cheng Lang was not there.

He returned to his room with his head down. When he turned on the light, he was startled. There was a tall man sitting on the sofa. Who else could it be but Cheng Lang?

Cheng Lang's face was a bit sour. He stood up and walked to Chen Ye. "The young master told me to come back tonight, so I came back. I have been waiting for the young master here for four hours."

Chen also felt guilty for a moment, and he said, "I fell asleep at your highness's house and forgot the time."

It would have been better if he didn't say it. Once he said it, Cheng Lang's face became even uglier.

Chen Ye swallowed and said, "It's not even twelve o'clock yet."

He walked around Cheng Lang and came to the bedside table. He opened the drawer of the bedside table and took out a green-wrapped gift box.

"Here you go, a birthday present."

Cheng Lang was moved, but his face remained cold.

"I am of low status and unworthy of Master Shi's gift."

Chen Ye pretended to be angry and stuffed the gift into Cheng Lang's arms, "Who said you are of low status? I have never treated you as a slave."

Cheng Lang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He opened the box and found a watch inside.

Chen Ye asked Luo Zhiyuan to prepare the gifts. He asked Luo Zhiyuan to prepare two gifts at random and did not say who they were for. Unexpectedly, Luo Zhiyuan actually prepared the same gift.

Chen Ye looked at the watch in the box. Well, it was indeed the same, with the same brand and style.

When Cheng Lang was about to put the watch on his hand, Chen Ye grabbed Cheng Lang's wrist and said, "Wait, don't wear it yet."

Cheng Lang: “Why?”

Chen Ye's brain worked quickly and he found an excuse, "I bought a watch of the same model but it hasn't arrived yet, and I thought we could wear it together."

These words were somewhat ambiguous. Cheng Lang pulled Chen Ye's hand and asked Chen Ye to get closer to him. Cheng Lang said in a dangerous tone, "Master, do you know what you are saying? Master, your words are easy to be misunderstood."

Chen Ye looked up at him, "Then are you willing?"

There was no emotion in the boy's round cat-like eyes, but it was this look that made Cheng Lang's heart beat wildly.

He let go of Chen Ye's hand. He couldn't beat Chen Ye.

"I'll put the watch away for now. Tell me when you want to wear it, young master."

Chen Ye felt relieved. He was worried that Cheng Lang would be seen wearing the watch by Chu Xingyuan. Even if Chu Xingyuan didn't fall in love with him, the fact that he realized he was cheating on him would definitely not be resolved peacefully. He had to comfort Cheng Lang.

"I thought the young master would stay at the eldest prince's house today." Cheng Lang said suddenly.

Chen also smiled and said, "I promised you that I would come back, and I will definitely come back. By the way, happy birthday, Cheng Lang."

The wolf tribe does not have the habit of celebrating birthdays. Cheng Lang has never celebrated his birthday. His voice was a little dry. "You are not talking to the eldest prince as well."

Chen also raised an eyebrow, "He is my fiancé, is there anything wrong with me saying that to him?"

Yes, it was the right thing for Chen Ye to say to Chu Xingyuan. It was really strange that he rushed back in the middle of the night and said that to his slave.

An idea flashed through Cheng Lang's mind, but the idea was too unrealistic and he quickly suppressed it.

"Nothing is wrong." Cheng Lang said, "Today I want the young master to agree to a request of mine."

"Okay, you tell me." Chen Ye agreed straightforwardly.

The young master's innocent appearance made Cheng Lang's heart feel like it was scratched by a cat. He couldn't help but wonder if the young master would agree to some excessive requests.

Cheng Lang whispered, "I want to sleep here tonight."

He has already given up food as an adult, so it’s not too much to sleep next to the food and just watch it.

"Sure." Chen Ye said, "Would you like to sleep on the sofa or on the bed?"

Cheng Lang's light brown eyes dimmed a little. Since the young master had invited him, of course he would sleep on the bed.

"bed."

There was a sound of water in the room. Chen was taking a shower in the bathroom, and Cheng Lang was sitting outside.

He crossed his legs, his handsome face expressionless, but his red ears revealed his inner thoughts.

Chen Ye quickly finished his shower and came out, "You should go take a shower too."

Cheng Lang got up and entered the bathroom. He felt his whole body was enveloped by the heat of water and the scent of lemon.

The young master also has this smell...
