Chapter 11 : Uninvited Terrifyingly Guest.

"Brat, you can't even take a beating, yet you are forcing me to do so. I'm afraid I'm going to fulfill your wish"

Hyun said through gritted teeth.

"Uncle, mom why do you behaving this way? Uncle is the one who insulted Yeli in the first place. He's at fault! Why do you stand for him? Do you have manners at all?"

Ari finally stood up for Yeli.

She was the one who had specially invited Yeli. How could she let someone bully him?

"You are standing for an outside? How outrageous!"

Kim Sui said in disdain.

"You're two but he is alone that can be considered bullying. Moreover, I'm the one who has invited him here. How can I sit back and watch?"

Ari continued defending Yeli.

"No problem! it's normal for a woman to stand up for her man. Hmph! I pity you for your choice"

Kim Dae-Seok brought up the love topic again causing Ari to immediately become displeased.

This time, the expression on Yeli's face changed. He became enthusiastic to hear what Ari's reply would be.

Even Ari could tell this from his face and was stressed.

"My daughter Ari how have your taste in men worsened? Is this a man you brought home?"

Kim Sui complained.

"Enough!!? All of you shut up!"

A cold and stern voice pierced everyone's ears.

Everyone glanced at the owner of this voice. It was king Choi. He paid no attention to their arguments the entire time but when he heard about love topic, he immediately felt uneasy and displeased.

He specially arranged for Ari to marry crown prince Ha-Joon. No man dared to go close to her.

This caused king Choi to have a bad impression of Yeli.

As soon as he said this, both Kim Sui and Kim Dae-Seok fell dead silent. On the other hand, Ari felt relieved.

The king coldly glared at Yeli with malevolence, but he instantly shifted his gaze to Ari. He was about to say something when a guard suddenly barged into the room. He immediately reported.

"My lord, Crown Prince Ha-..."

Before he finished his sentence, a burst of loud and arrogant laughter interjected.

"Haha, you people dared to have a feast without letting me know?"

The voice and laughter belonged to a tall and handsome young man. He walked toward the table. Seven or so soldiers and a man in a red robe followed behind him.

Then his men stopped and stood close to Johan and other soldiers. They stared at each other with hostility and killing intent in their eyes.

King Choi seemed to panic.

"My lord Crown Prince Ha-Joon, come take a seat."

He said this while leaving his seat for the young man. He was extremely respectful toward the young man.

"Don't worry, I'll sit here... move!"

He said this while telling Dae-Seok to leave his seat.

Dae-Seok obediently stood up and yelled to a servant who stood a few meters away from the table.

"Bring another chair immediately!"

As soon as Ha-Joon got seated. He stared at Yeli and his lips pursed into a grin.

"Punk! Long time no see... For all these years you are still the same kid with no change in height ha-ha"

Almost everyone at the table including Ari was stunned. They didn't expect prince Ha-Joon and prince Yeli to know each other.

Yeli and Ha-Joon had fought in a battle 3 years before Yeli and his men headed to Jiuhon's snow valley hills.

The battle caused the deaths of some of Yeli's soldiers.

The Huryo army was led by crown prince Ha-joon who ignored Yeli's request to stay in the land. Prince Yeli's army was led by Joab and the former didn't even flick a wrist in the battle.

At that time prince, Yeli was just 16 years old while crown prince Ha-joon was 19 years old.

"Crown prince Ha-Joon, you have really grown up and you have become more handsome and stronger."

Yeli said without even looking at him and his expression was calm with no trace of fear, surprise, excitement, or anger.

He was busy eating. This somewhat surprised crown prince Ha-joon. They had a deep feud and Yeli must be furious after seeing him.

"Hey! Crown Prince is talking to you. Why is your attitude so arrogant and rude?"

King Choi reprimanded Yeli with anger in his eyes.

Although he had to please Yeli to avoid him from leaving which would also mean that he would no longer receive a monthly tribute, pleasing crown prince Ha-Joon was much more important since it concerned his life and kingdom. Yeli merely looked at him.

"Kid, you have become so arrogant, but don't think I'll let you off this time as I did last time since you have provoked me again. How dare you fancied my fiancée"

After saying this King Choi's face darkened and was confused.

Yeli and Ari arrived a few days ago. King Choi and the others were only suspecting their relationship. In other words, it was just a rumour.

'How did the crown prince find out about this?'

"Your fiancée? I only found out about this now."

Yeli suspected that Ari was not proud of it. Otherwise, she would have told him a long ago to prevent him from pestering her.

He glanced at Ari who was in low spirits.

On the other hand, king Choi knew that he had to explain it clearly to prevent crown prince Ha-Joon to prevent him from getting the wrong idea and things might escalate beyond control.

"My Lord, don't worry about it, I have already warned him to stay away fro..."

Before king Choi could finish Ha-Joon interjected...

"Shut up!"

Ha-Joon shouted immediately making king Choi tremble and seal his lips.

The same goes for everyone at the table except Yeli, who continued eating with zero stress even though he was the one in deep trouble.

He dared to fancy the crown prince's fiancée.

"Do you to take me as a fool? I knew that due to your carelessness days ago, Ari went missing and she came back with this trash. You even gave him a place to stay. You aim to let him marry Ari. How dare you do this behind my back!?"

King Choi and the others were all stunned. They had no idea, how crown prince Ha-joon had to find out about all those incidents.

He knew everything.

'How did he find out about this? Does it mean that we have a traitor here?'
