“Everything in this world is divided into whether I’m willing or not. It’s never been a question of whether I dare or not,” Lu Fenying said arrogantly.

  Of course, he had the right to be arrogant.

  He was a wolf who worried about nothing. He would go all out once he set his mind to something.

  In his eyes, there was nothing he couldn’t give up, but nobody in this world could force him to give up anything.

  It was entirely up to him.

  Xiao Xiao chuckled. “Your Highness, you probably don’t know: the one thing that can’t be forced in this world is the human heart.”


  “Is that so?” Lu Fenying asked casually.

  “Your Highness, you sound confident, but you’re actually scared. If you’re really confident, let’s make a bet. Let’s see if Mo Qian’er will leave you after you destroy the slave mark flute.” Xiao Xiao smiled at him provokingly.

  Lu Fenying scoffed. “You might as well just ask if Mo Qian’er will leave me if I’m powerless.”


  Was the man trying to use this stupid method to provoke him?

  He had the slave mark flute, which was his bargaining chip. Did the man have a brain or not?

  “So what if I can’t control Mo Qian’er without the slave mark flute? Do you think you would be able to see her if you didn’t have your medical skills? Stop dreaming. If you really have the ability, come and take everything from me. Bet? What are you talking about?”


  Lu Fenying sneered, clearly finding Xiao Xiao ridiculous.

  Xiao Xiao hadn’t expected such a reply.

  There was a trace of bitterness in his heart.

  He had to admit that Lu Fenying was right. He was too naive.

  He thought that the reason Lu Fenying could tie Mo Qian’er to him was because he had the slave mark flute.

  It was indeed because he had the slave mark flute, but Xiao Xiao never considered that the reason he had it was because of Lu Fenying’s power as the crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire.

  Xiao Xiao met Mo Qian’er because he had medical skills.

  Everybody’s capabilities and power determined what they had.

  If he had chosen power over medicine, and was still the high and mighty prince, he could definitely fight Lu Fenying.

  But now……

  Xiao Xiao’s eyes turned cold. Perhaps it was time to return.

  “Mo Qian’er’s body is injured. You can name your terms to take a look at her, but we’re not making a bet.” Lu Fenying revealed his purpose for coming today.

  He knew that Xiao Xiao would treat Mo Qian’er even if he didn’t come.

  But he couldn’t wait any longer.

  “The condition is that you don’t show up when I’m treating her.” Xiao Xiao didn’t think too much.

  He wouldn’t demand anything from Mo Qian’er.

  He wouldn’t waste whatever time he had with her either.

  Some illnesses were best treated as soon as possible.

  He only wanted to be alone with Mo Qian’er.

  If Lu Fenying was by her side, Miss Qian’er wouldn’t talk to him at all.

  Lu Fenying narrowed his eyes coldly.

  This dog really had guts.

  He wanted to flare up, but held back.

  Compared with letting Mo Qian’er remain here, he was willing to let them be alone together during the treatment.

  “Alright.” With that, Lu Fenying left.

  Xiao Xiao stared at his departing figure and sighed heavily. He had chosen medicine because he wanted to be free and unfettered.

  But now, he knew that people were only free because they didn’t have anything they truly desired.

  Once they found it, they were willing to give up power and advantages for it.
