"Brother, are you talking about Bai Longying? I saw her at the Sea Moon Pavilion yesterday. I didn't expect you and she to know each other," Ning Xi'er said, thinking she was very clever. Her eyes were filled with a delighted and proud expression. Even if the king favored Bai Longying, he couldn't refuse his brother's request in front of so many people.
After all, if Brother Chu secretly harbored a human woman, who also happened to be my brother's beloved, what would the ministers think? They would surely believe Brother Chu was lusting after beauty, unwilling to choose a concubine, and occupying his own subject's beloved...
Thus, even though Brother Chu was the ruler of a country, he couldn't keep Bai Longying anymore and had to obediently 'return' her to his brother.
Otherwise, Brother Chu's throne would be subject to doubt and shake.
She thought she was clever, but little did she know that her actions would only make Chu Tiange despise her more!
