Shortly afterwards, the two took the young man out of Chun Jiang Pavilion. Ye Shu gave him some silver and set him free.

"How could this be," The young man firmly refused to accept it. "

Engong saved me. I can't take any more of Engong 's silver."

"Are you going to return home?" Ye Shu asked.

"I... I'm not," The young man shook his head. "I have been living with my father as a child, but he accumulated gambling debts and sold me into the brothel without a second thought. I won't go back. I'm thinking of finding a place to live in the capital and find some way to make a living."

The young man's eyes were clear and transparently bright. "Can Engong tell me his name? If I earn enough money in time, I will certainly repay Engong ."

But it wasn't convenient for neither Ye Shu nor Jin Wang to disclose their names.

"We also live in the capital," Ye Shu said. "We will surely see each other again at sometime in the future if you also live here."

Ye Shu insisted on not disclosing his name. The young man couldn't keep asking and could only nod. "I look forward to meeting you two again. I hope that by then I will already have enough silver to repay Engong."

Ye Shu nodded with a smile.

The young man looked at Jin Wang standing not far away.

The latter was dressed in black and stood under a tree, his upright and slender figure holding an extraordinary bearing.

"Is...that...your husband?" The young man softly asked. "He's so handsome."

Ye Shu subconsciously wanted to deny it, but the young man hurriedly added, "Don't get me wrong. I don't mean anything else. I'm just... just envious of you. He must be very nice to you."

"He......" Ye Shu paused and softly added, "He's indeed very nice to me."

Frankly speaking, Jin Wang did treat him very, very well. As a ruler, one would naturally be sensitive and mistrustful, and that is to say nothing of the experiences that Jin Wang had gone through in his early childhood. Under all these influences, it wasn't at all easy for him to treat him this way.

Ye Shu decided he would treat him better once they returned, if the dog emperor would also stop acting like an ass.

The young man smiled. "I wish you and your husband happiness forever."

The two parted ways in front of Chun Jiang Pavilion and Ye Shu returned to Jin Wang.

"What took you so long? What were you talking about?" Jin Wang asked.

"Talking about you ya," Ye Shu looked up and smiled softly at him. "He said you're sohandsome. Your Majesty spent a lot of silver to buy the man's freedom. You really wantto let him go without bringing him into the harem?"

Jin Wang reached out and took him into his embrace. "Gu already has two beauties in the harem, why would Gu need another one?"

"But also..." Jin Wang lowered his head, gazed into his eyes, and added in a low voice, "He's nowhere near as good as you. Gu simply doesn't see him."

"You're the only one in Gu's eyes."

Ye Shu's heart fluttered slightly.

Jin Wang rarely said such words to him, and whenever he did speak like this, there was always a teasing overtone, thus Ye Shu didn't take it to heart at all.
