Chapter 716 - 270: Settling the Empress, Battling the Imperial Consort Again! Talking in sleep is a bad habit!_2
Chen Mo leaned down to her ear and whispered, "Does Your Highness know that ceilings need to be suspended?"
Empress: [・_・?]
...
...
An incense stick’s time later.
Chen Mo pushed the door open and walked out of the room.
Under absolute skill, the Empress was already exhausted and had fallen into a deep sleep.
Walking through the dark palace corridor, he arrived at the inner hall. Through the moonlight spilling outside the window, he could see the rising and falling outline on the small couch.
Chen Mo quickly stepped forward and said softly, "Empress, are you okay?"
"Not good."
Yu Youhan, with her back to him, said in a muffled voice.
Chen Mo’s mouth twitched, sat down beside her, and said, "Is the Empress still angry about what just happened? I had no choice; after all, the Empress was drunk and could only be indulged for a while..."
"She asked you to do it, so you did it?"
"And with such force, in front of her, making me so unbearable... I never want to see you again!"
Yu Youhan bit her lip, her voice cold yet carrying a hint of resentment.
Chen Mo was silent for a moment, bowed his head, and said, "If that is the case, then I shall not trouble the Empress’s eyes. I will take my leave now."
With that said, the sound of footsteps gradually faded, and the air became silent.
Yu Youhan snorted coldly, "Stop pretending, I know you haven’t left at all."
For a moment, no one responded.
Yu Youhan’s breathing paused, then she spoke in a deep voice, "Fine, the further you go, the better. I don’t need you to care."
Still, no one responded.
The entire inner hall was so quiet that it seemed you could hear your own heartbeat.
A hint of panic flashed in Yu Youhan’s eyes, her speech hastened, "Chen Mo, have you really left? If you dare leave me here alone, I’ll... Chen Mo, are you here or not? Say something!"
This red ribbon can only be untied by Chen Mo.
If he leaves her alone, she would truly be no different from a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!
By tomorrow morning, when the palace attendants come in and find her in this state, the consequences could be unimaginable!
Thinking of this, Yu Youhan began to feel a bit anxious, wriggling like a caterpillar, she struggled to sit up and look around, discovering no one in the inner hall.
Chen Mo had already left.
A trace of loneliness and disappointment flashed in her eyes, she muttered softly, "I was just speaking in anger, couldn’t you just humor me? Why take it seriously, you petty man..."
"So it was just angry words?"
"I thought the Empress really didn’t want to see me anymore."
At that moment, a familiar voice reached her ears.
Yu Youhan’s body stiffened, she slowly turned her head to look.
She saw Chen Mo leaning against the window frame, moonlight outlining his body in silver, with a handsome face carrying a faint smile, gazing at her with a grin.
"Weren’t you gone? What are you still doing here?" Yu Youhan’s eyes darted, her tone somewhat unnatural.
"It wasn’t just angry words, even if the Empress really ordered me to leave, I would not go..." Chen Mo walked forward, sat on the small couch, and lifted her onto his lap.
Lips close to her white earlobe, he whispered, "I can’t leave the Empress anymore."
Yu Youhan’s cheeks flushed, glaring at him, "Smooth-talker, I don’t believe you!"
Chen Mo blinked and said, "But I feel like the Empress is slicker, why don’t you try again?"
?
Yu Youhan, of course, knew what he was thinking, she turned her head away, refusing to pay him attention.
Chen Mo thought the Empress was still not appeased, didn’t want to court trouble, so he just held her quietly.
After a while, he heard her speak, "I’m in such a state now, with no way to resist, you better not get up to any tricks, did you hear?"
"..."
Chen Mo was taken aback, then couldn’t help but laugh.
She says not to cause trouble, but really she’s reminding him to hurry up and cause trouble?
Proud beings have become outdated, Hake Han!
"You..."
Yu Youhan wanted to say more, but Chen Mo had already lifted her bright and lovely face and kissed her deeply.
Her tense body gradually softened, her eyelids slightly closed, her eyes no longer clear, and a vague whimper escaped her throat.
"Mmm~"
When Chen Mo lifted his head, the Empress was still in a daze.
Strangely, why does it feel like this guy’s taste is a bit different from before, it seems to have a faint floral fragrance...
Sweet and tasty...
Chen Mo, while searching for the knot, smiled and said, "The Empress always says one thing and means another, it’s not a good habit, like just now, if I really walked away, what would the Empress do?"
"I..."
Yu Youhan was tongue-tied.
After a long while, she then said softly: "I’ve been bullied by you to such an extent, I’m losing face completely; can’t I just lose my temper? If you leave me alone, what else can I do but accept my fate?"
"It’s because you’re my heart’s demon, truly a burden from a past life owed to you..."
Chen Mo shook his head.
Although he wanted to change the Empress, this was not something that could be done overnight.
If it were that easy to change, she wouldn’t be Yu Youhan.
However, from the current situation, the Empress has gone from "only proud, not coquettish" to "sometimes proud, sometimes coquettish," and the distance to "only coquettish, not proud" should not be far...
"Got it."
Chen Mo pinched the knot.
The position was right near the coccyx, embedded because it was tied too tightly.
As he began to untie it, Yu Youhan’s chest rose and fell unsteadily, and a trace of fragrant sweat appeared on her forehead.
Trying to divert herself, she asked, "Earlier, what were you doing with Jiang Yuchan in the room for so long?"
Chen Mo dared not mention the ceiling matter and said casually, "Nothing much, just the Empress was drunk and a bit restless, I came out after she fell asleep."
