Song Lin raised his head in confusion and looked at Wen Yun. Their eyes met, and Song Lin felt as if he was being drawn into Wen Yun's deep and profound dark eyes.

"Be good, Yuer,"

Song Lin did not make any radical moves, but the princess was not as calm.

The Princess shouted with a raised voice, "Wen Yun! You treacherous wolf, release my son promptly! What else do you plan to do to my son? Have you forgotten how you deceived us back then?"

Song Lin: So, just tell me already! Can you stop teasing me and leaving me in suspense?

System: ...I really want to know too.

"No, I certainly haven't forgotten. Yuer is mine, and I haven't done anything wrong," Wen Yun stated confidently.

"You, you, you..." The princess was so infuriated that she couldn't even speak, and she fainted straight away from anger.

Prince Wang supported the princess and shouted at the guards, "Someone come! Arrest this scoundrel for me! Also, Wen Yu must marry the princess!"

"You dare!"

With just a few words, Wen Yun's remark caused the people who came to apprehend him to freeze in their tracks. Wen Yun held onto Song Lin tightly and cast a dangerous gaze at the old master, saying, "If any of you dare to force Wen Yu to marry someone, I will... annihilate your entire family!"

Song Lin's eyes welled up with tears of sorrow. "So, no one told me the truth?"

The old master was not taken lightly by Wen Yun's defiance. He hadn't expected that Wen Yun would actually oppose him for the sake of one person.

The old master sneered and said, "Do you even know who you are? What qualifications do you have to say such things?"

Wen Yun turned Song Lin's head and kissed the corner of his eyes, saying, "My sweet Yuer, would you like to take a nap first? I'll come find you later."

Then, Song Lin felt a blur before his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. Wen Yun placed Song Lin horizontally in her arms and handed him over to Zhu Ying, saying, "Take care of him."

Zhu Ying took over Song Lin and nodded gently. At the same time, Zhu Ying felt a bit strange in her heart, not understanding why Wen Yun would entrust Song Lin to her.

The reason why Wen Yun entrusted it to Zhu Ying was because, after observing her for these days, he confirmed her character.

The people in the hall dared not move, each of them wanted to leave but couldn't, yet they also feared knowing too much would lead to their families being wiped out, so each of them wanted to lower their heads like an ostrich and dared not raise them.

Wen Yun stood tall, exuding an imposing aura with a refined demeanor. A person like this, with such grandeur, should not be confined to this small little prince's residence.

Wen Yun looked coldly at Old Lord Wang and said, "Do you know who I am?"

"Hmph, who are you? You're just a traitor! A white-eyed wolf! We treated you so well, and this is how you repay us?!"

"You all are very well aware of how you treated me in the past, but... I'm sorry, I am not a rebellious child, after all, I am not your son."

With a single statement, Wen Yun silenced everyone present. Lord Wang tightly clenched his fists, his eyes filled with a cruel and malicious gaze directed at Wen Yun.

"The crown prince nowadays, is he truly your son? Such a classic case of switching a crown prince. The crime of deceiving the ruler...hah."

"Nonsense! Wen Yun! Stop spreading falsehoods here and attempting to deceive the public!"

"Deceiving the public with false words? Everything I said is the truth, and I have evidence. Tell me, if I were to present this evidence to the emperor, I wonder... how many lives would be forfeit?"

The Lord Wang is an ambitious person. He has always been comforting himself, saying that everything Wen Yun said is false. He had already destroyed all the evidence at the beginning, so it's impossible for there to be any more evidence!

But seeing the confident look on Wen Yun's face, he fell silent again.

"What do you want to do?"

Wen Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "Cancel the marriage. From now on, Wen Yu will be under my supervision."

The old lord was truly rendered speechless by Wen Yun's actions. After a long while, he finally managed to utter a complete sentence, "This is defying the imperial edict!"

Wen Yun smiled gently, with a smile that was both cruel and beautiful.

"I don't care then."

Wen Yun finished speaking and left elegantly. Old Wang Ye sat down dejectedly. He glanced at the trembling crowd around him and ordered the guards, "No one here is to be spared."

After speaking, begging for mercy resounded throughout, but Lord Wang remained unmoved.

The lobby instantly became a river of blood.

Although Song Lin fainted, his consciousness remained clear. He spent 50 gold coins to purchase an antidote from the damn system. After Zhu Ying settled him on the bed, he slowly woke up.

As soon as Zhuying saw Song Lin wake up, she hurriedly asked if he was okay.

Song Lin shook his head and said, "Zhu Ying, I'm fine. Um... can I ask you something?"

"You may speak, Prince."

"Um...uh, what happened back then? Why is Mother so angry?"

Zhu Ying hesitated for a moment, looked at Song Lin's determined appearance, and let out a sigh before slowly speaking, "Initially, the crown prince brought Wen Yun over to live here. Afterwards, Wen Yun brought a master to the Prince and Princess's place to say that you are a lone star that brings disaster, and that you must be kept indoors. Otherwise, it will bring trouble to the Prince's residence!"

After hearing this answer, Song Lin's corner of the eye twitched a little.

I've taken off my pants and you want me to listen to this? I can't understand how such a small matter can cause such a big commotion!

System: ... Hehe, what a speechless response.

Zhuying saw Song Lin's shocked expression (although not really), and couldn't bear to say anything more. However, she also wanted Song Lin to see Wen Yun's true nature clearly. She gritted her teeth and said, "Prince, don't be too sad. Wen Yun is nothing but a scheming wolf! You treated him so well, yet he treated you like this, even imprisoning you for eleven years!"

Song Lin really wanted to tell the girl that he willingly did it from the heart.

System: Hmph, it's all thanks to me. Otherwise, it'd be as difficult as swallowing a jujube pill!

Song Lin: Yes, yes, it's all thanks to my dad's efforts.

Zhuying was about to slander Wenyun's image when Wenyun returned.

He said coldly to Zhuying, "Get out."

Zhu Ying glanced at Song Lin unwillingly, and Song Lin nodded at her, indicating that she should leave.

"Big brother..."

Wen Yun approached and hugged Song Lin, gently asking, "How did Yuer wake up?"

Song Lin looked at Wen Yun's rapid change of expression for a split second and felt a bit intimidated.

Song Lin was afraid that Wen Yun would notice something, so he quickly changed the subject and asked, "Why did you do this?"

"Because you are mine."

How cruel and beautiful those words are. What one desires, one must firmly grasp in their hands, by any means necessary.

Song Lin poked at the system, who was watching the show beside him, and said, "Hey, Tontun, do you think the male supporting character's brain is a bit abnormal?"

System: ... Song Sha, it's better if only you and I know about this kind of thing.

"You locked me up..."

"You are mine, so naturally, I won't allow anyone else to look at you! You can only look at me, you can only think of me in your heart, understand? Yu'er?" Warmly, Wen Yun caressed Song Lin's cheeks, as if caressing something precious and fragile, with utmost care and caution.

Song Lin's heart really felt like it was—barking mad. He found Warm Yun's behavior quite...giving him goosebumps.

Song Lin: If it weren't for your good looks, I would have slapped you a long time ago.

System: You dare not, because you are a coward. :)

Song Lin: Dad, you don't love me anymore!

System: Be good, Daddy has always loved you.

Song Lin has reached such a stage, and he is still thinking about the mission in his heart.

Song Lin looked at Wen Yun seriously and said, "Brother, I think they misunderstood. I willingly chose to be with you! I'm not afraid of being confined, as long as I have you by my side, I am very happy!"

Song Lin's passionate words were just a series of empty promises, leading to a certain outcome.

"[System]"

Male lead affinity value +8, currently 92.

Song Lin excitedly danced in his heart.

System: Son, you're amazing! Who would have thought you had such deep strategies up your sleeve.

Song Lin: Thank you very much for the compliment. Hehehe~
