Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

220 INNOCENT FOREHEAD KISS

Bai Chen wasn’t very smart, but he was able to quickly connect the dots.

Ever since Zhu Ge had been his servant in his palace, the man would occasionally return to his house to retrieve his belongings, and the man could casually return to the palace with a refreshed face instead of showing any signs of fatigue.

Just like Dong Lang, Wu Li’s territory was vast, and that was why Bai Chen would sometimes feel worried when Zhu Ge had to commute from his house to the palace. He thought that Zhu Ge lived far away from his palace, and sometimes he felt bad about it even if he wouldn’t want to admit that.

But Zhu Ge had just confirmed that his house was close to his palace, and he was suddenly relieved to know that the man in red didn’t have to walk a thousand miles just to reach his house when he needed something to pick up.

Furthermore, the previous confirmation from the taller man also answered Bai Chen’s question about how that man always smelled like wet leaves, and that was why he looked so interested as he waited for the man’s next answer.

Meanwhile, Zhu Ge simply chuckled before replying, “You’re right with all of your analysis, including the fact that I always smell like wet leaves. You asked me about that before, right? Back then, you thought I always smelled like wet leaves because I loved to eat vegetables, but now you finally know the real reason behind it.”

Zhu Ge was right. When he ate with Zhu Ge after he returned from the Forbidden Forest, he voiced his curiosity about Zhu Ge’s unique scent, and he also made a theory in his head about that scent.

He thought Zhu Ge smelled like wet leaves because the man liked to eat vegetables, but Bai Chen remembered that Zhu Ge laughed at him when he voiced the theory. Sure enough, the reason behind the distinct smells wasn’t from the vegetables, and the real reason was that the man had lived in the forest for many years.

“Are you an animal? Why do you live in this forest?” Bai Chen sounded harsh as he once again questioned the taller man, and Zhu Ge suddenly wiped the smile off his face when he heard the question.

.....

Bai Chen noticed the not-so-subtle change in the man’s expression, and that was why he immediately felt bad, thinking that he might have offended the man when he carelessly asked if Zhu Ge was an animal.

Whether it was in the previous world or this world, Bai Chen was certain that no human wanted to be called an animal, and that was why he felt guilty for asking that question.

“Sorry. I didn’t mean to offend you by calling you an animal,” Bai Chen rarely apologized, and perhaps that was the reason why his voice sounded low and gentle as he finally apologized to the man standing in front of him.

Zhu Ge also rarely received apologies from the Prince who was usually full of himself, and that was why he was quite surprised by it.

Thankfully, the apology was enough to put a smile back on Zhu Ge’s face when the man returned, “If your apology is sincere, then maybe you can give me a kiss on my forehead?”

Bai Chen should have expected it. He had known Zhu Ge for almost a month, and the man was so manipulative that it gave him headaches sometimes. Whenever he felt guilty, the man would take advantage of him, and the man would also make strange requests to take advantage of his mistakes.

‘But wait. It’s the first time this man has asked me to kiss his forehead,’ Bai Chen was furious, but he managed to notice the oddity when he suddenly frowned. ‘He sometimes asked me to kiss his cheek, and he also asked me to kiss his lips. But I’m sure this is the first time he’s asked for a forehead kiss.’

That was why Bai Chen felt that Zhu Ge was quite strange with his request. He believed that, whether in his previous life or in this world, a forehead kiss should be seen as an innocent kiss that was different from a kiss on the cheek or lips. Even his parents in his past life used to kiss him on the forehead when they sent him to bed, and that was why Bai Chen believed that a forehead kiss was innocent.

The kiss was innocent, but Bai Chen would never have thought that Zhu Ge was innocent, and that was why he was surprised by the man’s request to give him a kiss on the forehead.

“Why are you suddenly asking me to kiss your forehead? Do you want to play me again?” Bai Chen couldn’t help but feel suspicious, and he even narrowed his eyes while voicing his suspicions.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ge burst out laughing after hearing his question. “What’s wrong with a forehead kiss?” He asked between laughs. “And what kind of tricks can I play if you give me a forehead kiss? You think too much, Bai Chen. It’s not good for your little head.”

Zhu Ge even used his index finger to pat Bai Chen’s head as if he was talking to a child, and Bai Chen was annoyed that he immediately grabbed the long finger before bringing it to his mouth. Yes, he suddenly bit the long finger, causing Zhu Ge to scream in pain.

“Why are you biting my finger? You could have sucked it instead of biting it!” Zhu Ge snapped at him, but Bai Chen just rolled his eyes when he realized that Zhu Ge was dirty talking just now.

Bai Chen was infuriated, but when he looked at the other man, he somehow assumed that Zhu Ge was truly hurt. He didn’t know if the man was hurt by his previous words or because he suddenly bit his finger, but he once again felt bad about it.

Without saying anything, Bai Chen grabbed Zhu Ge’s shoulders before tiptoeing and immediately landing his lips on the man’s forehead.
