Chapter 506 Getting Rid of His Delusion (1)
Seeing Gong Jue coming out of Gong Yimo’s room, Shen s.h.i.+ye was shocked. When the royal guards he brought over saw Gong Jue, they hurriedly got on their knees, not daring to say anything.
“Why are you here?” Shen s.h.i.+ye knitted his brows unhappily. Glaring, he asked, “Where’s Gong Yimo?”
Gong Jue laughed. “Royal Sister went to rest.”
When Shen s.h.i.+ye heard this, he looked coldly at him. Realizing something, he waved his hands for everyone to leave.
After everyone left, he lifted his brows and asked in a deep voice, “She agreed?” But then she thought it was impossible. Why would Gong Yimo agree to this?
Gong Jue’s cold pitch-black eyes glanced at him faintly. “It’s only a matter of time.”
Shen s.h.i.+ye was furious. “Then that means everyone has a chance! Why are you stopping me here? I want to see her!”
Since Gong Yimo came back, he hadn’t even gotten to talk to her properly! Although he didn’t want to admit it, he missed her a lot!
Gong Jue sneered. “You think you have a chance?”
He laughed at Shen s.h.i.+ye for overestimating his capabilities. “Royal Sister only treats you as her ordinary friend. That’s why she’s nice to you. If you think that your relations.h.i.+p with her can improve because of that, then I can only call you delusional.”
Shen s.h.i.+ye clenched his fists upon hearing this.
He glared angrily at him. “What gives you the right to say this? How do you know that she doesn’t like me? Are you her?!”
“Because if I don’t want her to see you then she can’t see you.”
Gong Jue’s voice was cold and he said the words slowly. However, his words were extremely hurting. “Because she met me first when she returned instead of you.”
Shen s.h.i.+ye’s face paled and he still tried to retort, “That’s because I was out of the capital previously!”
Gong Jue softly laughed mockingly. Shen s.h.i.+ye’s face paled again. His body stiffened and then trembled slightly. He almost couldn’t take this at all!
He recalled Gong Yimo dancing and killing for him! She even gave him the golden token the emperor bestowed her! Was this all just because they were friends? He didn’t believe that was what Gong Yimo felt. It shouldn’t be!
Therefore, he summoned the courage to say, “She drank with me. When I am unhappy, she’d coax me. She’d even save me at any cost! She—”
“Royal Sister would die for me.”
Gong Jue looked coldly at him and ruthlessly interrupted his words. “Do you dare to say the same?”
As if drained of energy, Shen s.h.i.+ye stood there, feeling wind seeping in his bones.
“You can’t be with her because you’re her brother. Only me! Only I can give her happiness!”
His words provoked Gong Jue. But he only slightly narrowed his eyes before telling him the truth ruthlessly, “Maybe, but you have no chance now.”
Right. In Dayu, he was the grand Prince Qi. Even if Shen s.h.i.+ye succeeded the throne in the end, how could he be Gong Jue’s opponent?
This was the first time Shen s.h.i.+ye felt like he was in a difficult situation. He took a few steps back and almost had the thought of escaping, not wanting to face the reality.
“Wait.”
Gong Jue stopped him. In the night wind, Shen s.h.i.+ye’s silhouette paused but he didn’t look back..
“Heh. What else do you want?!”
Gong Jue curled his lips up a bit. “I hope you can hand over the gold token my Royal Sister gave you. That’s not yours.”
Shen s.h.i.+ye subconsciously clutched his chest.
No!!
This was the proof that Gong Yimo treated him nicely, the evidence proving their acquaintance. This golden token was everything to him!
But Gong Jue took a step closer, his strides calm. It felt like a monster was speaking in his ears and his voice echoing.
“Give up. That’s not urs. There’s no use in imposing it on her.”
Shen s.h.i.+ye felt humiliated and angry being forced by Gong Jue and him wanting to steal his golden token.
