"Don't get fooled by this man, Yunyu Gege. He is just a scoundrel Seventh Prince. My dad told me he is so handsome, so he must've broken so many women and Ger men's hearts, especially with his status. Don't go with him, okay?"

[Yah, this kid… is he really a regular kid? I mean, he is Xu Jiansheng without his memory. But what he said is pretty straightforward and too logical for eight year old. Now I have to play along with his words…]

[Pupa: He is Xu Jiansheng without memory. It's just his natural trait. Xu Jiansheng seems to be really smart, so all his incarnations will be smart as well, including this stinky boy.]

Bai Yunyu gulped when he heard that. He looked at Huang Shu with a complicated look, then he asked worriedly, "Is that true? You are His Highness Seventh Prince?"

Huang Shu zipped his mouth instantly. He glared at the Young Master Xu Jiansheng, who raised his chin, signifying that Huang Shu had fallen into his trap.

"I—I…" Huang Shu didn't know what to say. He wanted to admit it, but the condition wasn't so good. He hadn't even built up some good feeling between them, and this stinky boy already outed him.

Bai Yunyu instinctively distanced himself and bowed his head politely, "P—Pardon me, Your Highness, I really don't mean what I was saying yesterday. P—Please excuse me!"

"Wait, I'm not—" He wanted to grab Yunyu's arm again, but Yunyu swiftly dodged and distanced himself.

"I need to go in. Please excuse me, Your Highness. P—Please don't visit me again. Some people might get a wrong idea about us!" Yunyu swiftly ran away and entered his jewelry store with that stinky Xu Jiansheng in his arm.

Xu Jiansheng stuck out his tongue, mocking Huang Shu, while the Seventh Prince could only watch this helplessly. He knew that Bai Yunyu must've been scared because he was afraid to offend the royal family. On the other side, he also spoke so many things yesterday that were against the traditional views.

[Hehe, that will show him~]

[Pupa: Now, what kind of drama are you instigating?]

[Drama? No, not dram at all. I just want Huang Shu to know that I'm not an easy target for him. I won't be swooned by his handsomeness, although I missed his big cock, hehe.]

[Pupa: So vulgar and shameless! You're holding a child right now.]

[Peh! Jiansheng is not really a child. I still remember how he wants to lock me with him as a ghost!]

[Pupa:… anyway, Huang Shu hides in the alley directly facing the store again. What will you do next?]

[Hmm… I'm not sure. Haven't think that far. I'm just acting scared of him because that's the most logical since I have to play along with Jiansheng.]

Pupa should've known that Yunyu wouldn't plan that far. It looked at Huang Shu, the poor Seventh Prince still lurked in the alley facing the store.

Xu Jiansheng bought the jewelry he wanted. It was already late evening, so Yunyu carried Jiansheng back to Duke Xi's mansion.

Yunyu put Jiansheng down in front of his mother, Madam Xu, "Then, I will excuse myself, Madam…."

"Gege, wait!" Jiansheng suddenly hugged Yunyu's waist and then tried pulling him down, "I want to give this to Gege."

Xu Jiansheng opened the jewelry box that he just purchased and then took out everything, the necklace, the ring, and the bracelet.

"Eh?! Do you want to give this to me? But you just bought it in my store..."

"I bought it for you, Ge…" Jiansheng then insisted on putting the bracelet and ring on Yunyu's ring finger.

"Madam, I'm sorry, but…"

"No, just take it. Jiansheng seems to like you a lot. I may need to talk with your old father," Madam Xu said with a smile on her face.

"But he is only eight!"

"Then we should wait until he is sixteen or seventeen, then you two will get married. Isn't that good?" Madam Xu chuckled happily, not giving Yunyu any chance to refuse.

Yunyu sighed and just followed whatever this stinky boy wanted. In the end, he returned home with a necklace, ring, and bracelet that were both beautiful and flashy at the same time.

[I seriously think that my popularity here is more troublesome than its worth. Ah, I'm so beautiful and well-loved. Is this what they call suffering from success?]

[Pupa: Tch, somehow, your success annoys me more than it should be.]

[Oh come on, Pupa, I know that you're happy for me as well, I mean—]

"MMFF!" Yunyu was shocked when someone suddenly grabbed him inside a dark alley. And used his palm to muffle Yunyu's mouth. He was panicked for a moment, ready to take the knife on his waist. But when he saw the one who took him, he relaxed his guard and acted scared again, just like a commoner who met the Imperial family.

After Yunyu calmed down, Huang Shu released his grip, and Yunyu immediately distanced himself.

"Y—Your Highness, did I do something wrong? Pardon this commoner for not recognizing you for the first time. Please forget what I said before. It was just me talking about random things! I—It's just a passing thought, aha.. ahaha…"

Huang Shu sighed, full of pity for himself. He really hated this because he knew that Yunyu would do this after he knew Huang Shu's true identity as the Seventh Prince.

But there was no returning back. At least he won't return back empty-handed.

"Yunyu, are you scared of me because of my status?"

"N—Not at all, I mean, I respect you a lot! But I'm just a commoner, and you're from the Imperial Family. I just don't want any trouble…" Yunyu said.

"I don't want to give you trouble, Yunyu. Please listen to me first, okay?"

"But…" Yunyu wanted to say that the Imperial family was nothing but trouble. It was better not to get involved with them. But he couldn't say that to Huang Shu, obviously.

Thus, Yunyu nodded and stopped resisting. Huang Shu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I admit it. I am the Seventh Prince, Huang Shu. But that title doesn't matter for now."

"H—How could you say it doesn't matter? I've insulted the Imperial family. I—I can't afford to offend Imperial Family."

"Please, Your Highness. Please spare me just this time. I will never show my face in front of you anymore! I promise!"

Huang Shu was frustrated with Yunyu, who refused to hear him. He got annoyed and said, "You know by doing this, you're making me annoyed?"

Yunyu paled after he heard that. He tried to run away again, but Huang Shu caught him by his wrist.

Then Huang Shu realized the bracelet on Yunyu's wrist when he touched it, alongside the necklace and rings.

"Wait… that stinky kid gave you all the jewelry, isn't it?"

"Your Highness, Young Master Xu is just so kind to me, so I have to accept it."

Huang Shu's gaze darkened. He really couldn't leave Yunyu alone, knowing how many men wanted to covet Yunyu, snatched him away.

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 65%!]

"Take it off. Now."
