639 Call you oldie then? [Bonus chapter]

Kang Horan found out about Lóng Wei’s return as the news spread in the entire capital as a fire. He ran to the palace to see Lóng Wei. Not because he wanted the sixth prince to see Kang Huijuan, but because he wanted to apologize to Lóng Wei.

The servant took him to the Lóng Wei’s manor and asked him to go inside.

Kang Horan thanked the servant and walked into the manor. His eyes landed on Li Hua, who was watering the plants and he halted in his steps.

Li Hua was humming a song and turned around when she saw Kang Horan there. “Who are you?” She asked and put the watering pot down on the ground before she walked up to him.

“I am Kang Horan, Your Highness.” He bowed to her. “I am here to see Prince Lóng Wei,” he informed her and lifted her head.

“Uh... Prince Lóng Wei isn’t here. You need to wait for a little,” Li Hua said.

Before she could ask Kang Horan to follow her to the guest room, she heard him say, “I will stand outside the manor and wait for Prince Lóng Wei to come.” He turned to go out when Li Hua stopped him.

“Why don’t you wait for Prince Lóng Wei in the guest room? It may take him a long to return,” Li Hua suggested to him.

Kang Horan turned to Li Hua. “I do not want to trouble Her Highness. I can wait outside,” he humbly said.

.....

“It is not trouble,” Li Hua said with a smile and asked him to follow her. Kang Horan could not refuse her and silently went after her.

He was hesitating a bit to sit on the broad chair of the guest room when Li Hua told him to sit.

Li Hua sat across from Kang Horan and said, “I have never seen you before neither do I remember Prince Lóng Wei telling me about you.”

“Forgive me for not properly introducing myself, Your Highness,” Kang Horan first apologized and then continued, “I am the youngest brother of Brother Kang Huijuan and Sister Cha Ying.” Please visit f𝗿e𝙚𝙬ℯ𝚋n𝚘ν𝗲l. 𝐜𝐨𝗺

Li Hua was stunned to learn about his identity. She didn’t expect Kang Huijuan’s brother to be so respectful, humble, and calm.

“My elder brother made a lot of mistakes. The Princess Consort was also troubled because of my brother. I sincerely apologize for that,” Kang Horan said and lowered his head.

“You don’t need to apologize, Kang Horan. The old things are already gone,” Li Hua said with a tiny smile.

Kang Horan glanced at her. “But the wounds always stay there. That’s why an apology is a must,” he asserted.

“You look very young, Kang Horan. May I know how old are you?” Li Hua inquired him.

“I am seventeen, Your Highness. I will turn eighteen soon,” Kang Horan said.

Li Hua smiled to hear that answer. “You are such a sweet boy,” she complimented him.

“Whom are you calling a sweet boy?” Lóng Wei ended up hearing such a compliment from outside the room and asked Li Hua as soon as he walked in. His eyes landed on Kang Horan, who stood up from his place. Li Hua also rose to her feet seeing Lóng Wei.

“Who are you?” Lóng Wei frowned at Kang Horan and stepped up.

“Prince Lóng Wei, this is Kang Horan, the younger brother of Kang Huijuan,” Li Hua quickly said.

Lóng Wei stood next to Li Hua and gazed at Horan. “Why are you here?” He questioned.

“Your Highness, I am here to apologize to you for the wrong my father and brother did to you. I have been waiting for the Sixth Prince for a long time,” Kang Horan said.

“How come you are so sophisticated?” Lóng Wei remarked.

Li Hua tilted her head to gaze at Lóng Wei and hit his arm using her elbow. “Don’t mind Lóng Wei’s words, Kang Horan.” She faked a laugh and told Lóng Wei how young Horan was.

“Li Hua, Prince Tianjie’s wife wants to talk to you. Go to her,” Lóng Wei said.

“Oh really?”

“Hmm. Go and talk with her,” Lóng Wei stated.

Li Hua nodded at him and left to see Song Jia. After she went away, Lóng Wei looked at Horan.

“I don’t need an apology from you, Kid!” Lóng Wei said.

“I am not a kid,” Horan felt offended.

“Should I call you oldie then?” Lóng Wei chuckled.

“His Highness can call me by my name,” Horan replied.

“Using Kid is better,” Lóng Wei said. “I don’t want to forget your father’s and brother’s mistakes, so I cannot forgive them. Moreover, a third person seeking for apology makes me angry,” he affirmed.

“I didn’t want to anger the Sixth Prince,” Horan stated.

“But you did,” Lóng Wei said.

“I apologize for that,” Horan said.

“How come you are so different?” Lóng Wei muttered. “You are unlike your crazy brother and father,” he remarked.

“I want to rectify the mistakes that my brother and father made,” Horan stated. “Also, I met Brother Huijuan and he asked me to tell you he wants to see you once.”

“I refuse. Go and tell him,” Lóng Wei replied.

“May I know why?” Horan looked at him.

“Because he lost his chance to turn everything right,” Lóng Wei said.

“Your Highness, I also do not want my brother to be forgiven. However, his child will take birth soon. At least, for the child His Highness shall see my elder brother once,” Horan requested him.

“His child should know what kind of father he has,” Lóng Wei stated.

“There are thousands of criminals serving jail terms in the prison. Some have turned old, but they were never forgiven. Do you know the reason, Horan?” Lóng Wei asked him.

Horan shook his head.

“Because that will be an injustice to many. Indeed, the family of the criminal suffers, but the victims cannot be neglected,” Lóng Wei affirmed.

“I understand, Your Highness,” Horan said. He didn’t plead with Lóng Wei anymore.

“Since you are the only different person I saw among them, I will see Kang Huijuan for the last time. I hope this time he doesn’t humiliate me,” Lóng Wei stated.
