GIFTED BRIDE OF THE SINNED PRINCE - Chapter 620 - 620 Kneel down and apologize to Lóng Wei [Bonus chapter]

620 Kneel down and apologize to Lóng Wei [Bonus chapter]

Qiu Mu entered the pavilion after returning from the imperial court as Eunuch Dao informed him about Akng Horan, who was waiting for him. Xiaoming and he had a discussion for a long time over a few important kingdom matters.

Upon entering the pavilion, he saw a young teenage boy seated on a chair.

Seeing Qiu Mu Kang Horan rose to his feet and bowed to him. Qiu Mu smiled and asked him to sit down.

“I am Kang Horan, the younger brother of Sister Cha Ying.” He introduced himself to Qiu Mu before settling on the chair.

“Cha Ying has told about her younger brother once,” Qiu Mu said. “I hope I didn’t make Kang Horan wait for a long time,” he added.

“Not at all, Your Highness,” Kang Horan said.

“So, why are you here? Also, shouldn’t you be in the academy?” Qiu Mu inquired.

“I finished it earlier, Your Highness,” Horan replied. “I wanted to see my elder sister as soon as possible. After what happened in the past few months, I was planning to return early,” he stated.

Qiu Mu found Kang Horan was more responsible than Kang Huijuan. He could not believe for a second that they both were siblings yet one was totally different from the other.

…..

“I would like to thank Your Highness for bringing my elder sister back,” Horan expressed his humble gratitude.

“I promised her for the marriage. How could I sit quietly and do nothing when she ran away? You don’t need to thank me because it was my duty toward her,” Qiu Mu said and smiled at him.

“I apologize for what my father and brother did. Also, I request His Highness to let me see my elder brother. I have something to say to him,” Kang Horan requested.

“Follow me,” Qiu Mu stood up from the chair. Kang Horan also rose to his feet and left with Qiu Mu to the prison.

Qiu Mu asked the soldier to open the lock of the cell in which Kang Huijuan was kept. As soon as it opened, Qiu Mu asked Kang Horan to go in.

“Yes, Your Highness,” Kang Horan said with a slight bow before stepping into the cell.

His eyes landed on his elder brother as the door closed behind him.

Kang Huijuan was seated on the floor in one corner and his eyes closed. “Is it you, Lóng Wei?” Kang Huijuan opened his eyes. He was shocked to see his younger brother in front of him.

“What are you doing here?” Kang Huijuan asked and averted his gaze from him.

“Why did Elder Brother do it? Everything was going well,” Kang Horan questioned him with a furious tone.

Kang Huijuan had nothing to say to him and he stayed quiet.

“Answer me, Brother!” Kang Horan raised his voice at him.

“I have no answer,” Kang Huijuan replied.

Kang Horan clenched his fists. “Sister Cha Ying will get married tomorrow. Do you have any message for her?” He asked.

“Ask her to forgive me for breaking my promise to her,” Kang Huijuan asserted.

“Weren’t you supposed to be in the academy?” Kang Huijuan asked him.

“I finished my studies early to come home. I have to take care of many things,” Kang Horan answered.

“You have always been good at studies. How is mother doing?” Kang Huijuan asked her.

“She pretends to smile, but internally she is not,” Kang Horan replied. “Won’t you ask about your wife?” He arched his eyebrow. n-(O𝒱𝑒𝑙𝒃1n

Kang Huijuan sighed. “How is she?” He finally asked.

“She is approaching her ninth month. Soon, your child will be born,” Kang Horan answered.

“Hmm.”

Kang Horan found his brother had no affection at all toward his wife.

He lowered his gaze to the floor and asked him, “Why didn’t Brother Huijuan listen to Prince Lóng Wei when he forwarded his help to him? Why did Brother Huijuan destroy his family? Soon, his child will take birth. How do you expect to meet your child’s gaze? I never imagined my elder brother would turn into a person whom people would despise.”

Kang Horan’s questions made Kang Huijuan embarrassed. He felt guilt and realized how foolish he was. Lóng Wei gave him chances but his ego didn’t let him kneel down and apologize to Lóng Wei.

Kang Horan, upon getting no answer, decided to leave. He turned around when he heard his elder brother speak, “I want to see Lóng Wei. Ask him to see me once.”

Kang Horan frowned at him. “Why?”

“Because I have to say something to him,” Kang Huijuan said. “Also, tell my wife not to tell my child ever about me. I won’t be able to get out of this prison and I don’t want my child to know his father is in the prison,” he asserted.

“Brother Huijuan destroyed many lives,” Kang Horan said and walked out of the prison. The soldier locked the door while he left with Qiu Mu.

“Your Highness, where is Prince Lóng Wei?” Kang Horan asked.

“Prince Lóng Wei isn’t in the palace,” Qiu Mu replied.

“When will he return?” Kang Horan queried.

“I have no idea. Prince Lóng Wei has gone on a long journey with his wife, father, and a friend,” Qiu Mu replied. “Kang Huijuan hurt Prince Lóng Wei a lot of times. I don’t think Lóng Wei will see him ever,” he asserted.

“I will talk to Prince Lóng Wei when he returns,” Kang Horan stated.

“I am surprised to see another good person from the Kang Family. Kang Horan, you are an incredible person,” Qiu Mu said and patted his back. “Ask me anything and I will give you,” he said.

“Thank you, Your Highness, for the praiseworthy words. I want nothing except the fact that my sister should remain happy after her marriage,” Kang Horan stated.

“I will always keep her happy. I won’t give you any chance to complain,” Qiu Mu affirmed.

Kang Horan thanked the Second Prince and after a while, he left the palace.
