The Yandere Male Lead Chases Me

Chapter 520: The Regent King Wants 51 Kisses [Alliance Leader Bonus]

Yu Wenxu raised his eyes, his face still pale.

He exchanged a glance with Su Yan.

The emotion on his face was unclear, his voice indifferent:

"This Prince is discussing state affairs."

If it were anyone else hearing this, they would probably be frightened enough to kneel on the ground.

Su Yan reached out, pushing the bowl of medicinal soup towards him.

"Drink it while it’s hot."

Yu Wenxu’s thin lips pursed slightly as he looked at her, his eyes flickering with thoughts unknown.

He had not yet spoken when those civil servants could no longer bear to watch.

"Presumptuous!!"

Slamming the chair, they stood up.

Raising their finger towards Su Yan, probably too angry to control their shaking hand.

"Who is this maid?! How disrespectful!"

The civil servant was at a loss for words.

After all, it was the first time they encountered someone so brazen and disrespectful in front of the Prince.

And what darkened the civil servant’s eyes even more was yet to come.

To see the usually ruthless and cold Prince, for some reason, instead of dragging the person away for execution, he actually picked up the thick medicine and drank it.

Incredibly obedient...

Once he had drunk the soup in one breath, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

He still had not spoken, when suddenly he heard a sound from beside him.

A piece of peeled sugar was passed to his lips.

A voice arose beside him,

"It’s sugar, sweet."

Yu Wenxu’s eyelids fluttered.

He did not look at Su Yan’s expression.

In this silence.

The civil servants watched incredulously as their Prince opened his mouth and obediently ate the tender piece of sugar.

Su Yan watched his throat move up and down, confirming he was eating the sugar.

Then, she gathered up the porcelain bowl and took a step back.

Bowed politely, then said nothing more as she walked out carrying the tray...

Originally, Yu Wenxu’s expression had already lightened somewhat.

But hearing Su Yan leave without a word of inquiry, turning to go, the relaxed expression turned even darker.

Watching Su Yan’s departing figure, his eyes dark and turbulent.

Suddenly, Su Yan’s footsteps halted.

She turned her head, as if wanting to say something to Yu Wenxu.

She moved her lips, but seeing so many people staring at her,

ended up saying nothing.

She hesitated for a moment, as if he still had matters to attend to.

Logically speaking, he had taken his medicine and should not be disturbed further.

But...

After a moment of thought, she walked back to Yu Wenxu’s side.

Approaching him, she whispered in a low voice,

"Are you going to come back to dine with me tonight, or are you eating here?"

Yu Wenxu lowered his eyebrows, hiding the turbulence beneath his eyelids.

Su Yan saw that he was slow to respond.

Glancing again at those like predators watching eagerly.

Could it be that he wanted to go back to eat but was too entangled in official duties to leave?

She lowered her voice a bit more, tugging at his robe, inching closer.

"If you want to, just respond. Later I can find an excuse to call you away."

Her voice was soft and serious, offering a suggestion.

Then she added,

"And your wound needs changing, or it will worsen."

By saying this... it seems he must return to his chambers this afternoon.

Her tone suddenly became less negotiable.

Pulling on his sleeve, her tone grew much firmer,

"You’re coming back for dinner. I’ll come to fetch you."

She had thought he would argue back.

But to her surprise, just when Su Yan saw Yu Wenxu curl his lips and then respond,

"Yes"

She just knew.

Who would enjoy dining in the study?

With the new Emperor enthroned, him holding great power as the Regent. With so many eyes watching, it must be hectic.
