Chapter 318 - 318 THE DOUBT, THE TRUST

318 THE DOUBT, THE TRUST

Bai Lang was indeed not just an ordinary animal, and it smiled mysteriously after hearing Bai Chen’s question. Yes, Bai Chen did find Bai Lang’s smile mysterious because he couldn’t guess the meaning behind that smile. Was that an evil smile, or maybe Bai Lang was only dramatic with that smile?

“You will eventually find out my identity, but it is not the time now, Bai Chen.”

Bai Chen had expected that Bai Lang would give him such an answer, and that was why he wasn’t too surprised by it. Ever since he had returned to this world, the white wolf had been acting mysteriously in front of him. It acted as if it had just randomly appeared in Bai Chen’s world to punish him for his sins, but now he knew that the so-called sin was just nonsense.

“Let me hug you now, Xiao Bai. I’m really tired now,” unexpectedly, Bai Chen suddenly moved his body forward and was about to hug Bai Lang, and the wolf was quite slow this time when it failed to avoid the hug.

In the end, the white wolf was in Bai Chen’s arms, and it could only sigh heavily without trying to break free.

“You were a cute dog back then, Xiao Bai. That’s why I failed to recognize you when you appeared in your wolf form even if you were still as small as that dog. You do look cute now, but your personality is not cute at all, and that’s why I miss my innocent Xiao Bai.”

“...” Bai Lang looked helpless as the man continued to tell him nonsense.

Bai Chen did have complicated feelings at the moment. He received many surprises today, and most of them were not pleasant ones. However, he was somehow relieved when he found out that Bai Lang was the Xiao Bai he had met years ago.

He remembered how he befriended the white dog back then. The white dog was not like the other dogs raised by the fat woman named Mrs. Huang. The white dog had, for some reason, kept protecting him, and now he knew that the reason behind it was that the dog wanted to bring him back to this world.

.....

At this time, Bai Chen felt so relieved that he smiled, but then he heard Bai Lang speak again, “Do you still have any questions you want to ask? I’ll go and sleep now if you don’t have any other questions for me.”

Bai Chen suddenly let go of the white wolf before looking at the wolf strangely. “You also need to sleep, Xiao Bai?”

It was obvious that Bai Lang didn’t like being called Xiao Bai, but Bai Chen was already immune to the wolf’s fury, and that was why he continued to do as he pleased.

“I don’t need to sleep, but I want to sleep, and now I’m going because you don’t have any more questions for me, do you?” Bai Lang replied annoyedly.

It seemed like Bai Lang was sulking, and Bai Chen chuckled before saying, “I still have another question, and it’s related to Wu Jinhai, Bai Lang.”

“I expected it,” the reply from the white wolf came so quickly. “Whether it was in your past life or this life, you fell in love with that man, and I knew you would ask about him.”

“...” Bai Chen did not immediately respond.

He only realized how he was now a fully gay werewolf prince after he remembered all about himself. When he was in the modern world, he was a straight man, but that wasn’t the real him. No matter how hard he tried to stand up straight, he ended up bending because he was originally gay in his previous life.

Now, he couldn’t even reprimand Bai Lang because the little wolf wasn’t wrong. He had indeed fallen in love with the Eldest Prince of Wu Li in his two lives.

In the end, Bai Chen didn’t try to refute what Bai Lang had just said, and he could only sigh before looking away from the wolf. “I don’t want to be betrayed once again, Bai Lang,” he replied.

“If you’re still worried that Wu Jinhai will betray you, then that means you still can’t completely trust him, Bai Chen. Didn’t he ask you to trust him?”

“…” Again, Bai Chen couldn’t answer.

He did want to trust Wu Jinhai, but he also wanted to protect his heart, and that was why he asked Bai Lang for confirmation about Wu Jinhai. He didn’t want to doubt Wu Jinhai either, but it was only natural that he would want to protect his heart, right?

Perhaps Bai Lang could see how troubled the Prince was now, and that was why the wolf sighed before saying, “Wu Jinhai betrayed you in your previous life because you failed to make him fall in love with you, Bai Chen. That’s why I gave you a mission to date him in your current life. I want you to change your destiny in your current life.”

Bai Lang was no longer joking around, and it looked very honest as it explained everything in front of Bai Chen. At this time, Bai Chen once again turned to the little wolf and gazed at the wolf. “You’re trying to protect me,” he muttered. “But, is Wu Jinhai truly in love with me this time, Bai Lang?”

Another question came from the man, and Bai Lang calmly replied, “Once again you showed me that you still can’t completely trust Wu Jinhai, Bai Chen.”

“...” Again and again, Bai Chen was shut down by the little wolf.

He didn’t want to appear like a coward who doubted everyone because of his past tragic end, but he just didn’t want to repeat the same tragedy. However, perhaps Bai Lang was right. Perhaps he still couldn’t fully trust Wu Jinhai even after the man showed how much he loved him.

“Love is about two people, and it is between you and Wu Jinhai, Bai Chen,” Bai Lang spoke again when the man didn’t respond to its words. “I can say that Wu Jinhai is indeed in love with you this time, but people’s hearts can change at any time, and it’s your job to ensure that Wu Jinhai’s heart will not change. That is the only way to assure that he will not betray you one more time.”
