179 Yan is Not an Ordinary Prince (2/2)
Jun Hua mouth twitched a little. This man mouth is still as bad as ever. ”Prince Yan…”
Yan took up his cup from the table and smiled. ”And I don't only do this for Jun Min. It's true that I'm angry for him, but I too have a personal grudge towards the Lan family. Let's just say that this is something I will eventually do, but the time just become quicker.”
”Really?” Jun Hua looks skeptical, but Yan didn't reveal to her his past.
”There are things you are better off not know.”
Jun Hua nodded. ”Jun Min case is not your fault. You don't have to do anything.”
”I want to,” Yan said simply.
After chatting for a bit, Jun Hua left him. Yan looks towards his cup of wine. In fact, he was worse than Soujin who's only drinking at night because he drinks all day. But, after Soujin berated him the night before, he stopped. He knows that Jun Hua had come to Soujin place, but he didn't think that lady would come to his place too.
Yan pushed the wine away and lay down on the couch. He looked upwards as his mind drifted away to the time of his youth, the first time he chooses to act as a different person.
”Mother, what are they telling you?” that day, a person from the Lan family comes and tells his mother something that the younger him did not know.
”Yan'er, it's nothing.”
That was a lie. After that day, his mother is sent away to the cold palace and he doesn't have anyone to pamper him anymore. The young Yan, no longer had anyone to protect him, is being bullied and oppressed from the others.
Sneaking away from home with the help of Soujin, he stumbles upon the stores his mother used to own. The store is no longer in good condition and the profit had plummeted. He meets with the shopkeeper and the servant there.
”You're a servant here?”
The young man nodded. ”My name is Shu, Young Master.”
”Then Shu, from now on you have to follow me. I will make this store to its peak again and gained more profit.”
”Yes Young Master.”
Yan laughed a bit. That kind of meeting had unknowingly changed his whole life course. Thankfully the shopkeeper teaches him about being a merchant and he soon surpasses him by a lot thus making the business flourish again.
Because of that, he no longer cares about the bullied his brother and those ladies did. Soujin would keep on dragging a fight if he's there though, that was what made him becomes even braver. Besides, who cares about being the emperor if he could control the market?
”Shu, report.”
”Yes Master.”
Yan smiled slightly. He will show them; he's not the kid from the past whom they could bully as they like.
