Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]-Chapter 332 - 332 DREAM, NIGHTMARE
332 DREAM, NIGHTMARE
The sun had fallen, and the moon had risen.
It was always like this every day, the moon and sun would come and go, and neither of them would stay forever in the sky.
But today Bai Chen didn’t only have to bid goodbye to the sun that would leave the horizon. Instead, he also needed to let someone go.
It was night, and Bai Chen just let Wu Jinhai go.
The peak of Mount Heping was within the Dong Lang territory, and a nameless river flowed from the peak into the Wu Li Empire. Wu Jinhai said that the entire Dong Lang area was protected by a barrier set up by the demons. Land, air, and water were all surrounded by the barrier.
The barrier set up by the demons was strong, but Wu Jinhai said that it was naturally weaker underwater. For some reason, the barrier did have a weakness, and that was why Wu Jinhai would head to Mount Heping to reach an area with a relatively weaker barrier around the river that flowed from the peak of the mount. To be precise, he was going upstream, and he was going to infiltrate Dong Lang in that area.
Wu Jinhai carefully explained everything to him, and Bai Chen understood most of the explanation, but he was still worried as he stood in front of Jing Jing Liutang. Only the new moon accompanied him, but he didn’t even look up at the sky as he chose to look down at his chest.
Around his neck was a necklace. It wasn’t just an ordinary necklace, it was a necklace made by Wu Jinhai with a black bead hanging from it. Maybe Wu Jinhai only used ordinary thread to make the necklace, but Bai Chen knew that the necklace was still special because of the black bead.
“So, Wu Jinhai gave you his black bead, Prince Bai Chen?”

While Bai Chen was still staring at the little black bead hanging from his neck, someone suddenly came to question him, and he looked up to see that person. It was a man in a black robe with his hands behind his back, and Bai Chen recognized him as Yu Ming.
It was night, but the front of Jing Jing Liutang was bright, and that was why Bai Chen’s blue eyes didn’t shine to help the owner look around him. Yu Ming’s eyes also looked normal brown, but Bai Chen wondered whether the man could also change the color of his eyes like Wu Jinhai’s or not.
After all, Yu Ming was a fish demon, and perhaps he had similar abilities to Wu Jinhai, right?
Bai Chen’s head had a few questions, but he didn’t have the chance to voice them when Yu Ming finally arrived in front of him and stared intently at the black bead hanging from his neck.
“Did Wu Jinhai tell you the meaning of this little bead, Prince Bai Chen?” Once again, Yu Ming asked Bai Chen and shifted his gaze from the bead to the Prince’s eyes.
“He did,” Bai Chen replied. “I don’t really understand how things work in a demon’s body, but he said that half of his soul is inside this small bead now, and if I want to kill him, I only need to destroy this bead.”
Yu Ming smiled slightly after hearing his answer. “That’s right,” he replied. “Now that Wu Jinhai’s life is in your hands, can you completely trust him, Prince Bai Chen?”
“...” Bai Chen did not respond immediately this time.
Even Yu Ming knew that he previously did not completely trust Wu Jinhai. Perhaps the doubt was too obvious in his eyes, which was why the man in black had come to him to ask such a question.
“I heard from His Highness the Crown Prince that you want to kill Wu Jinhai,” Yu Ming spoke again when Bai Chen still didn’t voice a reply, and Bai Chen’s body froze even more after hearing those words.
Bai Chen shouldn’t feel surprised by what Yu Ming had just said because Wu Jinhai had revealed to him that Wu Jingguo had indeed heard how he said that he wanted to kill the Eldest Prince of Wu Li, but he was still quite shocked at the end. He just didn’t expect that Yu Ming would bring up the topic tonight, and Bai Chen was nervous as he guessed what kind of question he would receive from the older man. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ
“Why do you want to kill Wu Jinhai, Prince Bai Chen?”
Sure enough, Bai Chen had expected that he would receive such a question from Yu Ming, but he had not prepared an answer to that question. Nervously, he gripped the sides of his white robe, and he struggled to form an answer in his head.
“I had a nightmare yesterday before I decided to leave the Xinyang Imperial Palace,” Bai Chen finally answered Yu Ming’s question. “In the nightmare, Wu Jinhai betrayed me, and I even killed myself because of the betrayal. The nightmare felt so real that it controlled my mind when I woke up, and that’s why I was so afraid it would come true.”
In the end, Bai Chen was half honest when he told what happened to him yesterday. How Bai Lang brought his memories back to him was indeed like a nightmare, and that was why he could calmly recount what he had experienced yesterday.
“From His Highness the Crown Prince, I did hear about how you muttered that Wu Jinhai caused you to kill yourself, but it was all just because of a nightmare? I know how some people believe that dreams can predict the future, but don’t you think you’re being too exaggerated, Prince Bai Chen? Do you think your dreams can predict the future?”
“...” Bai Chen was once again unable to answer.
It wasn’t that he believed that his dreams would predict the future, but that was exactly what happened in his past life, and he couldn’t hold back himself for a moment when his memories just returned.
Yu Ming didn’t get a reply, and he suddenly sighed heavily before saying, “Now Wu Jinhai’s life is in your hands, and he even went to Dong Lang to risk his life because of you. Do you still not believe in him, Prince Bai Chen?”
