I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 685

Chapter 685: Chapter 259: Yu Youhan, the Covert Observer! Chen Mo Became a Candidate for Prince Consort? _3

"This book is most likely written by that little thief..."

"Who would’ve thought that besides designing clothes, he also has this kind of talent?"

The Empress bit her lip with her pearly white teeth, muttering softly, "But this storyline is quite indecent, why is it always about coveting someone else’s wife?"

Moreover, she felt an inexplicable familiarity with the characters in the book.

A husband plagued by illness, a wife who strays, and a promiscuous playboy...

What is this little thief insinuating?

It’s really infuriating!

At that moment, a somewhat deep voice emerged: "Who’s the little thief?"

? !

The Empress’s body stiffened, and she turned around abruptly.

She saw a woman in a bright red Martial Robe leaning against the wall, arms crossed over her chest, looking at her with a smile.

"Li’er?!"

The Empress said in disbelief, "When did you come back?"

"Not long ago."

"With the Grand Festival approaching and the situation in the Southern Border stabilizing, I thought of returning to Tiandu City to see you. I’ve missed you after all this time."

As Chu Yanli spoke, she walked toward the bathing pool.

She reached out to untie the hairband, her black hair cascading down like a waterfall, her clothes slipping off automatically, revealing skin as delicate as sheep fat jade.

Though her figure wasn’t as voluptuous and graceful as the Empress’s, she had a unique, elegant charisma—a crane-like neck and shoulder line, clavicles outlining like finely crafted white porcelain, and a slender waist boasting a smooth line like a sword sheathed in a sharkskin scabbard, hiding a sharp edge beneath nobility.

She reached the pool’s edge, unhesitatingly lifting her leg to step in.

Splash—

Her long legs parted the water, reaching the Empress’s side.

Chu Yanli’s stature was strikingly tall, at least a head taller than the Empress, with bold and spirited eyes; standing together gave off an uncanny illusion of a dashing Prince and a mature concubine.

"Missed me?" The Empress snorted coldly, "I think you couldn’t let go of the power of the Chu Family that I might seize, right?"

"If you put it like that, I’ll be a bit sad." Chu Yanli shook her head, "If I didn’t trust you, why would I have left the Seal Platform in your care? Besides, even if I offered you the throne, would you want it?"

The Empress found herself momentarily speechless, silently picking up a towel from beside her to drape over herself.

Chu Yanli pinched her chin, pondering, "But back to the point, what were you looking at just now? Muttering about little thieves, and wives..."

"..."

The Empress shook the book in her hand, speaking indifferently, "Just some random book, looking out of boredom."

"Alright then."

Chu Yanli seemed unperturbed.

Sitting on the pool’s edge steps, she immersed herself in the warm water, appearing relaxed and at ease.

After hesitating for a moment, the Empress asked, "Have you seen Wu Lie since you came back?"

"No."
