"Rest assured, I have instructed Chen Zhuo to head east, and he absolutely won't go west. As for your mother, although there are still concerns for now, sooner or later, she will accept me." At this point, a glint of cold light flashed in Yu Youhan's eyes, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "No matter what, I absolutely cannot be trampled underfoot by Ji Hongxiu and Jiang Yuchan!"
Chen Mo: "..."
Back in Bailu City, when the Empress and the Queen were arguing over who would become Lady Chen, he thought they were just acting out. Now it seems they might actually be serious!
He could already imagine what kind of scene the Chen Mansion would present in the future if that day truly came, and couldn't help but shudder.
"Mmm~"
Yu Youhan's body trembled slightly, and she said, annoyed and embarrassed, "Dog-like Lackey, where are you pressing?"
Chen Mo snapped out of it and looked down, only then noticing that his right hand had unconsciously crept past her collarbone, climbing upwards. He cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, sorry, my hand slipped..."
Just as he was about to retract his hand, Yu Youhan grabbed his wrist.
She was biting her lip, her cheeks flushed pink. She softly said, "If you're going to press, do it properly. Don't just press one side, otherwise, over time, they'll become unbalanced."
Understanding her implication, Chen Mo brought his other hand up as well, distributing attention evenly.
Yu Youhan's face turned even redder, almost as if it would bleed. She valiantly suppressed the fluttering sensation in her heart and asked, "So, what's the deal with Qingzhou Secret Realm? Must you go?"
Chen Mo nodded, "Yes, I must go. There might be materials inside for refining the Creation Golden Pill."
"I knew it, you're doing it because of that person with the surname Ling." Yu Youhan had claimed earlier not to be jealous, but now a hint of acidity crept into her words unwittingly.
Chen Mo said with a smile, "I haven't finished speaking yet. Secret realms of this scale inevitably come with great opportunities. Perhaps it can help me advance further to the First Grade, and then I'll be able to practice with you, Empress."
Yu Youhan turned her pretty head away and coolly said, "All you think about is things like that. Can't you aspire to something greater?"
Seeing her crimson earlobes, Chen Mo leaned over and said, "Could it be that you haven't thought about it, Empress? Don't think I didn't notice, when I was untying the red ribbon for you at Tianlan Mountain, you were..."
"Don't say it!"
