All around them —
There was only silence.
No one dared to breathe loudly or make a sound…
That was so terrifying…
Chills ran up their legs and spines, and they felt cold to the bone.
They had always known that the crown prince was a heartless man who could kill easily. But recently —
It had been a while since the servants at the residence saw the crown prince lose his temper. They even thought that they were beginning to see something human in him. So…
Many people involuntarily thought that the crown prince had become more approachable. As it turned out, he was still that heartless crown prince.
“Your Royal Highness —”
Immediately, everyone dropped to their knees, lowered their heads, and didn’t dare to meet Jun Linyuan’s eyes.
The crown prince looked around with his cold, murderous eyes.
His eyes seemed to see through everything.
The crowd shook from head to toe. They didn’t dare meet his gaze and had to control their breathing so that they wouldn’t make a sound.
“Let’s go!”
Jun Linyuan snorted, tossed Bixi aside, and marched off.
The others felt chilled to the bone…
The crown prince’s residence.
Feng Wu had slept in that morning and was enjoying the moment.
She was having a sweet dream, when she felt a cold, intense gaze on her. The person never looked away.
Feng Wu was so sensitive that she couldn’t ignore such an intense gaze.
Involuntarily, she opened her eyes.
“Jun Linyuan?!” Feng Wu rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned.
Jun Linyuan gave her a half-smile.
Crossing his arms, Jun Linyuan strolled over to the bed and stopped in front of Feng Wu.
“You’re awake?” The crown prince pinched Feng Wu’s plump cheeks with his slender fingers.
“Hm —”
Jun Linyuan’s fingers were as cold as ever, and his touch immediately woke Feng Wu up. She shuddered and smacked his hands away.
“Didn’t you go to the winter hunt? Why are you back?” Feng Wu was surprised.
The crown prince smirked. “To look for you.”
“To look for me?” Feng Wu pointed a finger at herself. “Haven’t you heard? Her Majesty the empress dowager specifically gave the order that I’m not allowed to go.”
Jun Linyuan gave her an indifferent glance. “Why do I feel that you look very happy?”
“I’m not!” Feng Wu wasn’t a fool, so of course she wasn’t going to admit it. She immediately said, “I’m not qualified to go? Aww, I’m so sad. I’m such a pitiful girl…”
Jun Linyuan stared at Feng Wu like he was looking at an idiot.
Under his gaze, Feng Wu couldn’t keep pretending, so she cleared her throat to give herself a way out.
“Hey, Jun Linyuan, are you also not going to the winter hunt?” Feng Wu really didn’t want to go.
The wind was the harshest on the Senal Grassland during this season, and it wouldn’t be a comfortable journey. But because of that, the beasts which came out at this time were fierce magical beasts, making it the perfect season for a hunt.
“Let’s go.” Jun Linyuan wrapped his right hand around Feng Wu’s little hand and dragged her toward the door.
“Hey, where are you taking me?” Feng Wu suddenly had a bad feeling.
“The winter hunt.” The crown prince’s answer was very succinct.
Feng Wu said, “Hey, I’m not going.”
The crown prince grunted. “Didn’t you just call yourself a sad, pitiful girl?”
