“Fine, fine,” Mo Yi paused, softening his tone, “Just don’t think about him, okay?”
“No.”
Mo Yi’s mouth twitched, “What now?”
“Mo Yi, you’re overstepping,” Mei Kaiyan frowned, “I’m not your anything, am I?”
He spoke softly, “Don’t you understand your status as a gift? Do I need to remind you?”
Mo Yi did not pay attention to him.
Sui Xing ran to his side and chattered, “Oh, getting angry so quickly? Really, your temper is getting worse and worse. That’s not attractive to girls, you know.”
“Really, if you like her, just take her and make her a concubine. Isn’t that simple?”
Mo Yi sternly stopped him, “Sui Xing!”
“Hey, don’t you like her?” Sui Xing thoughtfully shook his head, “Although her temper isn’t great, she’s easily angered and doesn’t act like a woman at all. But don’t you think she’s very ‘genuine’?”
Yes, after seeing so many women wearing masks and fake smiles…
She’s truly special.
“So, do you like her? Your Majesty.” Sui Xing smiled meaningfully.
“Although I’m not entirely sure,” Mo Yi revealed a slight smile, “probably.”
Meanwhile, Mei Kai Ye was still sulking, smashing anything valuable in the room. The sound of things breaking was music to her ears.
“Damn Mo Shui!” A vase shatters.
“Stinking Mo Shui!” Another vase breaks.
“Shameless!” The table is slapped to pieces.
“Despicable!” Cups are thrown.
“Vulgar!” The dragon bed is kicked.
Just as Mei Kai Ye had just kicked over a vase, Sui Feng, who had been quietly watching, spoke up.
“Miss Mei, the items you’ve just destroyed are priceless. You’ll probably never be able to repay them in this lifetime.
Mo Yi did not visit the concubine Wu, nor did he go to the Nishang Palace where she resided. He wandered around outside and then returned to the Taide Hall – the palace where the emperor was located.
As soon as he entered the palace, he saw that the originally neat arrangement was now scattered and messy, with broken porcelain on the floor, and in the inner chamber, a woman wrapped in a quilt, curled up and sleeping deeply.
He was a bit angry, but when he saw her completely unguarded sleeping posture, his anger dissipated.
