Jun Linyuan looked bewildered and he snorted. “Why do you care?”
Feng Xun clenched his fists. “I have to. Zuo Qingluan is sure to give little Feng Wu a hard time, and I must get better. That way, I’ll be able to protect little Feng Wu!”
After that, Feng Xun started his cultivation right away, leaving the crown prince standing there looking stunned.
Protect Feng Wu? Jun Linyuan looked pensively at Feng Xun. If that girl just gave in and begged for his help, no one would ever be able to give her a hard time at all!
Xuan Yi wasn’t doing a very good job with the treehouse, for Feng had always taken care of tasks like this.
Jun Linyuan’s face darkened a little when he saw the completed treehouse.
Xuan Yi’s heart sank.
As expected, Jun Linyuan frowned a little and said, “Too small.”
Too small? How could that be? He had used the exact measurements as Feng had. Jun Linyuan was the only one using it, so how big did he need it to be?
Exactly how much bigger? Xuan Yi wavered. He had never missed Feng as much as he did now.
However, Feng had escorted Feng Xiaoqi back to the imperial capital and they had no idea when he would be back —
Just as Xuan Yi was thinking about Feng, Feng came back.
Xuan Yi couldn’t be any more pleased and he immediately handed the task to Feng.
With Feng taking over, the new treehouse was solid, clean, neat, and looked very refreshing with all the green leaves. However, Jun Linyuan took a glance and went on frowning. It was obvious that he was still displeased.
Xuan Yi and Feng exchanged looks of bewilderment.
“Still too small? So, bigger?” Xuan Yi asked.
Crossing his hands behind his back, Jun Linyuan gave off a self-important and unhurried air. However, one could tell with one look that he wasn’t satisfied with the result. “Build another one.”
What?
Xuan Yi was bemused. Boss Jun had never bothered to have a second treehouse built for the rest of them. What was going on here?
Even Feng couldn’t help but give Jun Linyuan another look. Something was definitely amiss here.
Jun Linyuan walked away and disappeared into the forest.
Xuan Yi was bewildered. “Where is Boss Jun going?”
Before long, they heard the noise of magical beasts scattering.
Feng replied in his usual indifferent tone, “Expelling magical beasts, apparently.”
Xuan Yi was even more confused. “Why bother chasing them at all? Boss Jun and you yourself are more than enough to keep all of us safe. Plus, since when does Boss Jun himself need to do such petty tasks? He could have told us to do it.”
That was exactly what Feng was thinking as well. Hence, he also looked at the crown prince in bewilderment.
“Is it because we’re not careful enough for him?” Rubbing his chin, Xuan Yi considered the possibility.
“Has anything happened in the past few days?” Even Feng, the least gossipy person of them all, couldn’t help but ask.
“Well, if you put it that way, there was something. Boss Jun and little Feng Wu had a row.”
“Really? Tell me about it.” The taciturn Feng was actively seeking gossip, which proved how disturbed he was by the crown prince’s behavior.
Xuan Yi told Feng everything, then looked at the latter expectantly.
Feng looked at that figure clad in black a short distance away. The teenager was born with the duty to rule over this continent. Was he going to be distracted now?
Feng decided that he would wait and see.
The night passed without incident.
The first ray of sunshine lit up the entire treehouse through the window curtained by green leaves.
Feng Xun opened his eyes, which flickered brightly in the sunlight. Just then —

Author: Boss Jun, why build two treehouses?
Jun Linyuan: Shut up!
Author: Boss Jun, why did you chase away the magical beasts yourself?
Jun Linyuan: Shut up!
Author: Was it because you thought the others wouldn’t be as careful about it as you?
Jun Linyuan: Shut up!
