บท 422: The Stubborn Donkey

Qu Xinwei thought to herself. As the young prince, he had a noble status, but there was no one he could trust. Sigh, this young prince was actually quite pitiful.

Feigning helplessness, Qu Xinwei spoke, "Your Highness, I received a letter yesterday. My parents are not well and need my immediate care. I have no choice but to return home."

The matter concerned filial piety, and the Young Prince dared not object.

The young prince was extremely disappointed. It was not easy for him to have someone to eat with him, but he was leaving after just one meal. "Guard Qu, I really can't bear to see you leave…"

At this point, the capricious yet kind-hearted Young Prince came up with an idea, "Guard Qu, why not bring your parents to the mansion? That way, you can take care of them and stay here."

Qu Xinwei was speechless.

"Your Highness, there's still an orchard to tend to at home. That's Father and Mother's life's work. I can't ask them to abandon it."
