"Ever since Li’er returned, I have been trying to restrain myself, afraid that she might notice something unusual."
"To my surprise, she is so absurd. We’ve only met a few times, and she’s already done such a thing... If I remain indifferent, she might really be taken away!"
"Whether it’s Zhu’er or Li’er, none of them should come near!"
"The little thief is mine!"
The Empress’s cheeks were flushed. Her thin sleepwear half-open, revealing a smooth fragrant shoulder as her fair hands lifted up and reached forward...
?
Chen Mo’s heart wavered slightly, yet he dared not relax even for a moment, staring unblinkingly out the window, on guard against any sudden attack from the Empress.
Fortunately, Yangxin Palace is guarded by Heavenly Shadow Guards, sensitive to killing intent and restricted by rules, so the Empress wouldn’t easily use Divine Sense to investigate...
Seeing him absent-minded, the Empress seemed displeased, letting out a coy hum and slowly lowered her head.
"Hiss—"
"Your Highness?"
Chen Mo nearly couldn’t hold back.
Is this a proper examination?!
Bang—
Just then, a muffled sound of something falling came from outside.
Not good, someone is coming!
Chen Mo suddenly snapped back to reality, only to see a black shadow flash outside the window.
The next moment, a pair of different-colored pupils stuck to the window, peering through the semi-transparent glass inside.
One person and one cat stared at each other.
Finished!
Chen Mo’s mind went blank.
If the Empress saw this scene, the entire Imperial Palace would probably be turned upside down!
Instinctively, he sat up, causing the Empress to cough violently, her eyes brimming with tears, she angrily hit him.
"You wicked fellow, are you trying to take my life?"
It’s not me who’s after your life, but the Imperial Concubine!
Chen Mo said anxiously, "Your Highness, run quickly!"
"Hm? Why run?" The Empress asked, puzzled.
"No time to explain, something big is really about to happen. If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late..." Chen Mo rambled on, suddenly realizing something was amiss. Given the Empress’s character, she would have struck immediately, why wait until now?
He turned his head to look, only to see a cat squatting by the window, tilting its head watching him, its gaze innocent and stupid.
Judging from its silly demeanor, it clearly wasn’t Hake Han possessing it.
Chen Mo carefully opened the window, and the black cat jumped in, landing on the small couch, affectionately rubbing against his leg incessantly.
Seeing this, Chen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief, "So it wasn’t the Empress..."
Still, he couldn’t help but feel puzzled, "Strange, why did this dumb cat come here by itself? Where did the Empress go?"
"Meow~"
The cat stood up, gesturing incessantly with its little paws.
Chen Mo looked for a while but couldn’t understand what it wanted to express.
It tilted its head to think, tugged at Chen Mo’s clothes, then pointed towards the door, jumping up and flopping onto the bed in an awkward manner.
"Are you saying..." Chen Mo frowned, "Someone’s at the door? And they fell?"
