Chapter 1083: Frivilous Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Gu Ruxue’s surprised reaction lit up Zhou Huailing’s mood. He believed that the way Gu Ruxue reacted must have shown that he was behaving very well and that she was admiring him.
It was true that he was the Crown Prince, who was worshiped by many people, but he was a man who liked to be admired by women, especially the Phoenix Girl.
That was the thing he liked about Ruxue compared to Qingqing.
Qingqing was very well-behaved. She was an elegant lady who could do everything well, but she was too serious, always serious. No matter what he had done and how excellently he had done something, he never received praise from Qingqing, who considered those very normal.

He pretended as if he were doing this for Gu Ruxue’s sake, yet he was doing it for himself.
Zhou Huailing had not had an easy childhood.
He was not the lineal son, nor was he the eldest son. He understood the bitterness he had to go through.
Under those circumstances, he had no way to make himself the lineal son nor the eldest son.
Yet he had to make sure that his son was the eldest grandson, and he was going to make him the lineal grandson too!
The Elder Prince should have no such rights to take this position from him.
Zhou Huailing was thinking inwardly.
