“Guess, when the king sees us this time, is he going to say something about me marrying Corey?” Jing Yang turned to look at Reibar next to him.

“There wouldn’t be anything else that could make someone like him who can’t even get down from the bed insist on seeing us no matter what.” Reibar held his hand and kissed him.

“What about Abby?” Jing Yang asked. “Corey seemed like he quite liked him before, is he just not going to care about him?"

“Corey this person has always never had a sense of responsibility. Him not caring about Abby is not anything strange.” Reibar smiled sarcastically. “Royal Brother believes that he trained Corey well, but he himself doesn’t have the skills to be the king. He’s sat on the throne for so many years yet still hasn’t made any merit. Every day he just thinks about how to kill me so that his son can smoothly sit on the throne. What kind of good son could such a person teach."

“Growing up must have been really hard on you.” Jing Yang touched Reibar’s face, saying half-jokingly and half-seriously.

“It was not easy. When I was still at the border, I didn’t lose to my enemies, but often suffered in the hands of the people that he sent to assassinate me. When I rose again and again from the brink of death and returned to the barracks, I swore to myself that since he wanted me to die, I wouldn’t die. Not only did I have to live well, I also needed to seize the throne back from him and anger him to death."

Jing Yang was originally just joking with Reibar, but when he heard Reibar’s words he only felt heartache. Clearly the destined heir to the throne, yet because he was born too late, he suffered so much.

Jing Yang hugged Reibar’s waist and buried his face in his chest.

“These are all in the past.” Reibar hugged Jing Yang and comforted him. “Now he’s completely unable to do anything to me, and I will never let him take you away from my side."

The king lay back on his bed. He looked at Reibar, looked at Jing Yang, and finally set his gaze on their intertwined hands.

The king looked away, closed his eyes, and said, “Reibar, you have always been a smart man. You should know what I’m looking for you for?"

“I also think that I’m quite smart, or else how could I escape so many times from the people you sent to assassinate me?” Reibar smiled mockingly. “But this time I don’t wish to guess Royal Brother’s meaning. I will still ask Royal Brother to explain directly."

The king took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and looked at Reibar. “Very good. Then I will speak directly. Leann was the person, that I used my own life and health, to exchange for for Corey. As an uncle, you robbed your nephew’s partner, what do you think the public will think of you?"

“Why would I be worried about what the people will think of me? The person married to Corey is Abby, as the entire kingdom knows. And it was Corey himself who ordered Leann to be sent to the auction, so then I was able to buy him. I ask Royal Brother to listen carefully, it was Corey who wanted to sell off Leann, and then I bought Leann. This deal was done long ago, Leann is my person, could it be that this isn’t a matter of course?"

“You…” The king pressed down on his chest. “Don’t try twisting words! Everyone knows, that the pureblooded mermaid, was supposed to marry Corey. The previous mistake, was caused by Abby alone. Now, correcting this mistake, is completely possible."

“Yes, Royal Uncle. I was deceived by Abby previously, and I didn’t know that Leann was the real pureblooded mermaid, so I sent him to the auction house. Now that I know, as long as he returns to my side, I will definitely make it up to him.” Corey looked at Jing Yang, his eyes holding some affection.
