Chapter 464: It’s Differen (1/2)

Evidently, Pei Wuchen was not as calm and composed as Pei Rumo. Pei Rumo had already anticipated this reaction from him and he casually ordered his guards to direct Pei Wuchen to the Flower Pavillion.

The moment Pei Rumo sat down, Pei Wuchen rushed to his side and started to scream, “What is the meaning of this?!”

Pei Rumo shot him an innocent look and replied, “Third brother, what do you mean by that? I was just doing some work in my study when I heard that you have come to visit me. I immediately put down my brush and rushed to meet you, only to be met with accusation!”

With that statement, Pei Rumo managed to turn the tables and blame Pei Wuchen for being rude and informal.

Pei Wuchen knew that he was no match for his brother in an argument and he decided to ignore his comment. “You obviously know that Emperor Father had already decreed that I am going to be engaged to Feng Wan’er, so why did you choose this time to request to be in a union with Luo Chu?! You know well enough that choosing a dead woman as a consort is a grave mistake! Are you doing this to spite me?”

Pei Rumo raised his eyebrow and looked at Pei Wuchen with contempt in his eyes and sneered, “I think you’re thinking too highly of yourself, my dear Third Prince.”

Pei Rumo thought to himself, I really don’t know what he is thinking of inside that thick skull of his! He always thinks that the world revolves around him... I did that not to spite him, but to fulfill my own desire and also to make sure that Luo Chu will not be forgotten, even after her death.

Spite him? I think he better take a good look at himself before he accuses me of doing so! He’s not worthy! Can’t even beat me in a fight after all these years and now he wants to rush in and challenge me... Pei Rumo felt a trace of rage forming in his heart.

Pei Rumo recalled how much time he had wasted during the period where he regarded Pei Wuchen as a competitor.

Pei Wuchen understood the subtle message in Pei Rumo’s words. He knew that Pei Rumo wanted to say that he was not worth the time. However, a thought surfaced in his mind. When he rescued Luo Chu, didn’t he mess up his future for her?

“Did you forget why you wanted to rescue Luo Chu from the Bestial Battle Arena?” Pei Wuchen asked.

Pei Rumo had already expected the question and he had long prepared his response. “Men do foolish things when they are young. Even a person like me is not spared from committing such foolish acts. That is why I am seeking your forgiveness and understanding now.”

He told himself that he would not forgive Pei Wuchen easily. He wanted the Third Prince to suffer for what he had done. He wanted to anger his third brother to the point of spitting out blood.

As Pei Rumo had expected, Pei Wuchen’s face turned red with anger and he was close to spitting out blood. To avoid having an outburst, he turned and left.

How could Pei Rumo let him off that easily? He called out to Pei Wuchen, “Third brother, don’t leave just yet!”

Pei Wuchen stopped in his tracks.
