Lei Chen raised his hand and said to Xiong Ba and Qu Ling Yue: "The two of you, please take a seat first. We can discuss this slowly after that."
Xiong Ba and Qu Ling Yue immediately sat down.
"Regarding the incident where Ling Yue was injured, what do you think about it, Hall Chief Xiong?" Lei Chen asked.
Xiong Ba stared blankly, not expecting Lei Chen to ask such a question. Xiong Ba looked at Qu Ling Yue awkwardly.
Qu Ling Yue had been used by others and suffered such torment. As a citizen of the Thousand Beast City, they would naturally be highly displeased. But with the Fire Country's position and status, no matter how displeased the Thousand Beast City was, they could not possibly declare war against the mightiest country in the world. And for such a question to be asked by the Crown Prince, Lei Chen, it really put Xiong Ba in a rather difficult position. Was he really going to scold an entire country right in front of the Crown Prince's face?
Qu Ling Yue saw Xiong Ba's dilemma and she couldn't help herself but to say: "Senior's question is really difficult for Uncle Xiong to answer. Senior should know the whole story behind this matter and if you want Uncle Xiong to say that he doesn't mind it in the slightest, I'm afraid that would be impossible. But Senior is the Yan Country's Crown Prince and if Uncle Xiong were to say anything, I'm afraid it wouldn't be good as well." Qu Ling Yue was a little more familiar with Lei Chen and she was naturally not that worried about it.
Lei Chen laughed.
"I was being rude. I didn't expect that my question would put Hall Chief Xiong in such a difficult position. Why don't I ask, if there's a chance, are you willing to seek justice for this?"
This time, even Qu Ling Yue was stunned.
"Senior Brother, what do you mean?"
Lei Chen then said: "In this matter, it is just as Junior Ling Yue had said. The Fire Country was in the wrong but my Father had not offered any explanation for the matter. The relationship between the Fire Country and the Thousand Beast City had always been rather amicable and my Father's actions this time had really gone overboard. Although I am the Fire Country's Crown Prince, but I am also Ling Yue's Senior Brother. Seeing my own Junior suffer so much, how could I possibly feel good about it? Otherwise, why would I invite Young Miss Jun to help me? "
Lei Chen's words caused Xiong Ba and Qu Ling Yue to glance at each other. Neither of them had expected that Lei Chen would invite them here today to talk about such things.
From Lei Chen's words, they had already vaguely understood what he meant.
However, they did not know why Lei Chen would do this.
"I know that the two of you must be feeling rather puzzled. What I am saying today, is actually because there is one thing that I have not told the two of you." Lei Chen said.
"What is it?" Tyrant Bear asked.
"Actually, I don't have much of a relationship with Young Miss Jun. Before I invited her to treat Ling Yue, it could even be said that I didn't know her at all. The one who invited Young Miss Jun to treat Ling Yue was not me, but someone else." Lei Chen said with a smile.
"It's not His Highness?" Xiong Ba was taken aback.
Lei Chen nodded.
"The person who invited Young Miss Jun here is someone all of you know. He is actually my friend, Jun Xie."
Xiong Ba immediately thought of that handsome young man.
"It's him?" Qu Ling Yue's jaw dropped.
Lei Chen then said: "Ling Yue's injury had implicated her after all and she would naturally not want to be the scapegoat. Hence, she had invited Young Miss Jun here and asked me to bring her to Ling Yue's place. That was how all that had happened. Hence, the gratitude that Hall Chief Xiong had shown me before, I really do not deserve it."
Xiong Ba looked at Lei Chen. "Then why did Your Highness Crown Prince reveal this matter today?"
Lei Chen smiled bitterly, "Don't the two of you know?"
"Know what?"
