Chapter 502: My friends or yours?

"Are you crazy, why would I hung out with my brother’s ex girlfriend?" Chi Lian pushed Lili gently. "We became friends because she was dating him and now that the relationship is over I feel awkward being around her."

"Do you think she will renew her contract with us in three years?" Lili asked.

Chi Lian shrugged and excused herself, as she was leaving the food was being brought into their private room. She found herself at the open bar, where Muyang was waiting for her. He was sitting by himself, nursing a glass of what she could guess was whiskey.

She approached him slowly and said, "Hey stranger." Then she stopped and stood next to him. He was facing the bar while she faced the opposite way. "Handsome, I saw you from across the bar and I thought you were cute."

Muyang looked at her, smirked and replied, "I am sorry, I am married." he exposed his finger with a ring on it.

She poked her head in his personal and playfully used her fingers to travel along his arm, "I am sure your wife won’t mind."

He grabbed her hand and replied, "My wife is the jealous type, she will be displeased if she sees you touching me."

"Hmmm, your wife says that you should kiss me." she bit her bottom lip and giggled.

He smiled down at her and blushed slightly, "Stop it, how are you enjoying a night out with your friends?"

"It’s fun but I just discovered that Haena and Pd Rao don’t get along and yet I put the two on the same show. If I had known that Pd Rao called her a hyena on live tv I would not have put them together because now I am worried that someone might go crazy and choose to use a hyena mask then shit will hit the roof."

"Hyena-Rao!" Muyang said in surprise.

"You too?" she said in surprise. "Does everyone in the empire know about this thing?"

"It was hard not to know about something that caused an abnormal spike in the number of visitors in many zoos in the empire. People wanted to look at hyenas, the whole thing was ridiculous. It was interesting to look at from an economic perspective." he shook his head.

She looked at her husband, amazed at the thoughts in his head, "Only you would look at this and see it’s impact economically. Tell me oh wise man, do you think this move will be economically advantageous for me? Should I milk it?"

"I think you should take a break from work for a small moment and enjoy time with your friends. Remember to text me when you are ready to go, we will go home together."

"Yes, oh my wise man." she kissed him.

"So which group do you think is having more fun, your friends or mine?" he asked as an afterthought.

"Probably mine." she said. "You have no idea how much hyena-Rao has brought up funny memories but as soon as we finish eating Lili or Yifei will break into a dance and Rize will call it a night."

They stood up together, took the same direction but separated and walked into opposite rooms.

"I am back, did anyone touch my food?" Chi Lian asked immediately.

"Of course not," Rize responded, "We would not want to risk having our arms ripped off, what took you so long anyway? We were about to come looking for you."

"I run into my hubby." she replied playfully, shaking her hands twice, breaking into a sort of dance.

"Tsk tsk," Yifei went, "They must have planned this advance, I have never seen a couple more attached at the hip than these two."

"I hope my when my fiancé and I get married the chemistry will still be this fresh as the years pass." President Qin gave Chi Lian a thumbs up.

"You have a fiancé!! how is that not news anywhere?" Chi Lian asked her. She veiled her hands and prepared to eat a large serving of sweet and sour chicken wings.

"It is." Lili sucked on the chicken foot in her hands, "It’s her boyfriend’s older brother." she pointed the foot at the chief chef.

"Yichen’s older brother, golden Tao the pathologist!" Cherry said. "Now that is one cool man and I mean physically cool, hands up if you have ever seen him smile."

No single hand in the room went up, not even Qin Meng’s.

"Wow, not even with you?" Rize asked.

"It’s an arranged marriage and we are both okay with it. We are entering it like mature people that both know what we need from the marriage. He is not cool, he just doesn’t smile pretentiously at strangers." Qin Meng felt the need to explain to them.

"Muyang is that way too." Chi Lian in between bites of her chicken wings. "When I first met him I thought he was cold but he is a soft and warm cuddly teddy bear."

"Oooooh," Lili groaned, "If we are going to praise our significant others I should praise mine too."

Just as the women were discussing their significant others, the same topic had come up among the men because Muyang returned and announced similarly to his friends that he had been with his wife.

"That means my girlfriend is here." Tao Yichen said.

"His wife too." Muyang pointed to his brother. "And his fiancé." he pointed to the older Tao.

"They should have just joined us, should we invite them over?." Yichen mumbled.

"No," the third prince rejected that suggestion, "We have not had a guys night in a while. And all of you ruined the group chat when you started dating, all Muyang does is boast about his wife made breakfast or his daughter kissed him and she smells like flowers on there. No women talk tonight, we drink, smoke and criticize the new education bill."

"I don’t think he is getting any." Yichen mumbled and they gigged.

"Hey, not getting any! what are we eighteen? I am not lacking willing bed partners okay." the third prince said with emphasis. "For your information my marriage has been arranged, I am marrying the third daughter of the king of the Philippines."

"Should we toasting or mourning?" Kang Yuze asked him.

"I am a royal, we don’t marry for love, we marry for duty. Love will find me on my duty, hopefully." the third prince raised his glass.

"Let’s toast to our brother’s patriotic heart then, may the marriage be good to him." Muyang was the happiest to raise his glass and announce. He remembered vividly the third prince’s attempt to hit on his wife.

"What about you?" Huang Bolin asked the prime minister, "You are a prince, where is your princess?"

"No thank you, the empire is my princess." he said and then he laughed when he saw his friends and younger brother giving him unimpressed looks. "Seriously guys, forget the marriage talk and tell me how we plan to squash the fucking proposed education bill. If that thing passes and goes before the emperor someone will pay and it’s not going to be me. All the families involved with private schools and academies are not going to sit back and accept compulsory public school education. Neither will the wealthy and anyone capable in our empire that wants their child to have an advantage over others in society. The petitions are going to flood the palace and he is going to be so angry."

"Don’t you have any dirt on the minister proposing the bill?" his brother asked. "Blackmail never fails to do the trick. "

"No, minister Lim is an actual minister, he is the pastor of a church. The man lives his life by a code, trust me I have looked and found nothing." The prime minister lit another cigarette. "The task falls on you my brothers, find a way to stop this because it will affect some of you too after all we have five professors in this room."

"Nobody is that clean, not even a pastor." Yichen shook his head and disagreed. "Maybe you have been digging in the wrong places. Muyang is better at this kind of thing than anyone else."

"I will tell you what I find." Muyang did not say much but the prime minister’s worries were cut in half.

"Now just a quick marriage related question." Yichen said, "Why do you all keep getting married without allowing us to throw you awesome bachelor parties?"

"I want one." The third prince lit a cigarette.

"No." The prime minister looked at his younger brother with a warning on his face. "You like out of control parties, I don’t want to see your face on every television and newspaper in the empire on the day of your wedding because you got caught doing something stupid. Before you say no let’s revisit the time you went swimming butt naked."

"Ah the butt naked prince." Yichen laughed.

"The royal ass." Yuze added.

"Those were some good news headlines." Huang Bolin said and they all laughed at the expense of the third prince.

"Oh come on." The third prince yelled.
