Chapter 150: Chapter 150 : Zhang Fengxi Had To Take Responsibility

"Fengxi!"

Zhang Zhiyuan was sightly displeased.

"How could you even think about that?"

Zhang Fenghan wore a thin smile on his lips. He asked, "Prince, are you not engaged to the former Ethereal Beauty, Prince Liu Wenyuan from Wuyang Palace? Don’t tell me that you had a change of heart just because the Crown Prince becomes available."

"..."

Zhang Fengxi was fully aware of how people viewed him, but he remained adamant.

"I will dissolve my engagement to Liu Wenyuan. Father, please submit my name in the proposal."

"You...!!! You...!!!"

Zhang Zhiyuan was close to vomiting blood. This was the second time this troublemaker son of his broke an engagement with Liu Wenyuan.

Never mind what Wuyang Palace thought, even he sympathized with Liu Wenyuan!

"Zhang Fengxi!" he raised his voice. "Are you even aware of what you said? Do you think that Liu Wenyuan is a doll, free to toss and take as you will?"

Zhang Fengxi clenched his jaw.

Liu Wenyuan was very clear on the reason why Zhang Fengxi broke off with him two times. But then, Zhang Fengxi did not have the heart to tell others about his crime.

That was because he knew that he was also in the wrong.

Did Liu Wenyuan’s jealousy and insecurity not start because he, Zhang Fengxi, kept running into Xie Jianyu?

Even the fiery kiss during the ghost wedding was initiated by him.

Liu Wenyuan’s aggression was caused by Zhang Fengxi.

Now that Liu Wenyuan harmed Xie Jianyu so badly that the latter’s secret was exposed and he lost the claim to the Dragon Throne, it made sense for Zhang Fengxi to take responsibility for Xie Jianyu.

He wanted to spend the rest of his life taking care of and protecting Xie Jianyu. He was not going to let the omega suffer anymore. Therefore, it was necessary for him to marry Xie Jianyu.

But how to wrap all this mess in a beautiful package to serve his family and outsiders? The content was messy and thorny. There was no possible way to gloss it all over.

Unless he took the blame.

"I am sorry," he said helplessly. "I am drawn to the Crown Prince from the first day we met. I thought that I might be abnormal, because he was a fellow alpha. Now that he has become an omega, I have to follow my heart."

"Fengxi, YOU!!!"

Zhang Zhiyuan was so angry that he could hear blood rushing to his head.

"Go and kneel at the ancestral hall for a week until you repent!!!" he exclaimed.

Zhang Fengxi wordlessly bowed in front of his father, and returned to the Longjing Palace.

Now that he had put his intention into words, he felt so much better. It did not matter what others thought. He was going to marry Xie Jianyu.

Meanwhile, Lady Song received a notice from Wuyang Palace. She read the message again and again, almost burning holes in the paper with her intense stares.

The Longjing Palace Mistress paced up and down the entrance hall, waiting for her husband to come back.

The one who showed up was not Zhang Zhiyuan but Zhang Fengxi.

Lady Song bit into her lips. Zhang Fengxi must also be told.

"Son, come here."

"?"

Zhang Fengxi furrowed his brows. He approached his mother, only to get a crisp slap across his cheek.

"....."

"Fengxi, how could you!" Lady Song dabbed her embroidered handkerchief at her eyes, but there were no tears to wipe away at all.

Lady Song’s fake crying was then replaced by a huge grin.

"Good job, my son! I can’t wait to hold a baby in my arms!"

"... What?"

Lady Song thrust the letter from Wuyang Palace into Zhang Fengxi’s hands with a gleeful expression.

"Oh, don’t pretend to be that surprised. You know how a baby comes to be. When you sleep with an omega, of course, you take a chance to plant your seed inside the omega. Oh, I am so happy. I need a cup of tea to calm down."

Lady Song floated away like a fairy.

Zhang Fengxi flattened the letter in his hand and read it.

"Esteemed Longjing Palace Master and Mistress,

We write to inform you of some very good news. The Golden Dragon Palace sent Wenyuan back from prison after a thorough medical examination. Our Wenyuan is growing a child in his belly since two weeks ago. In order to ensure that the child is born in wedlock, we need to hold the wedding as soon as possible!"

A baby?

Wenyuan?

But...

Zhang Zhiyuan furrowed his brows.

Two weeks ago was when he met Liu Wenyuan for the last time. It was when he found out about Liu Wenyuan’s involvement with the First Demon King to kidnap Xie Jianyu.

He did not sleep with Liu Wenyuan!

He never did!

So how did he become pregnant?

Only one person could answer his question -- Liu Wenyuan.

Zhang Fengxi rushed to Wuyang Palace like a madman. He was received by Liu Yichen and his wife, who were more than happy to see him.

"Prince Fengxi! It is so good to see you here!" Liu Yichen patted him on the back.

"Have you heard the news? Congratulations, congratulations! We are all so excited!"

"Did you come to discuss the wedding?"

Lady Wen craned her neck and looked around. She did not see any other person from Longjing Palace.

"Prince Fengxi, why didn’t you bring your parents with you?"

Zhang Fengxi ignored all of their questions.

"I need to see Wenyuan," he said curtly.

"Oh. Well, Wenyuan is in his bedroom, resting..."

Zhang Fengxi did not waste any more time. After excusing himself, he marched directly into Liu Wenyuan’s bedroom.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he asked in a straightforward manner, "Whose baby is it?"

Liu Wenyuan was plucking at his zither. He lifted his beautiful eyes from the strings and stared at Zhang Fengxi. Without any reservation, he placed a hand against his belly and smiled, "Yours, of course, Prince Fengxi."
