"Why, why are you here?"
The Empress looked at the woman in front of her, flustered and stamring.
"What, did I interrupt your little affair?" Yu Youhan narrowed her eyes slightly, her face becoming blurred as if a layer of mist had lifted, revealing a breathtakingly beautiful visage.
It really is the Empress!
Chen Mo felt a tingling on his scalp.
It’s over, this ti I’ve been caught!
"Empress, let explain..."
"Shut up."
"..."
Yu Youhan looked at the Empress, her voice cold as ice: "This morning, you were still talking about fair competition, and now you turn around and use such despicable tricks?"
"Saying one thing and doing another, trying to turn uncooked rice into cooked rice, huh?"
"Jiang Yuchan, you’re really shaless!"
"I’m shaless?"
The Empress initially felt a bit guilty, but upon hearing this, she got angry and gritted her teeth, "This is a mutual affair of willingness. Chen Mo and I are fond of each other, naturally progressing. How is this despicable?"
"Today, I’ll cook this uncooked rice right in front of you, so what?"
???
Chen Mo swallowed hard.
No, at this point, don’t add fuel to the fire!
Yu Youhan’s chest heaved, her face frosty, yet fury burned in her eyes.
"Big talk, go ahead and try!"
"There’s nothing small about ! Bring it on, do you think I’m easily scared?"
The two refused to back down, tension rising and the air thick with hostility.
Feeling the temperature rise around her wrist, Yu Youhan struggled to control her emotions, fully aware that the Empress was purposely trying to provoke her.
Given the previous abnormalities, the other party should have guessed sothing; otherwise, she would’ve acted in the carriage today.
"Damn it..."
Yu Youhan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
Chen Mo’s attitude toward the Empress was peculiar, constantly leaving her with a sense of crisis. If this woman succeeded, combined with the "atonent edict," she might just make it through the Chen Family’s door first!
Imagining the day when the Empress smugly acted like the "Wife" in front of her, anger surged from within.
She absolutely couldn’t allow such a thing to happen!
No matter what, she had to take him away first!
With this in mind, Yu Youhan stepped forward, grabbing Chen Mo’s arm, "Co with !"
"No way!"
Seeing this, the Empress panicked.
Wrapping her arms around Chen Mo’s neck, she entwined her legs around his waist, holding tightly.
"I traveled all the way from the Capital to the Southern Border, and only managed to see the little thief once. You think you can just take him away? Dream on!"
"You think that works on ? Childish!"
Yu Youhan didn’t bother with words, attempting to forcefully break through space and leave.
Chen Mo, caught between the two, felt torn. Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through his mind:
This situation couldn’t be avoided, and since he’d have to face it eventually, why not take the chance to clear things up now.
Turning one bowl of uncooked rice into two bowls of cooked, it made sense, right?
Seeing space ripple, his form turning translucent, Chen Mo didn’t have ti to think more, focusing his mind, he grabbed the virtual red ribbon in his palm and pulled hard—
Buzz—
With the tremor of the air, crimson dust rapidly gathered, forming a red ribbon.
Like a serpent, it slithered over Yu Youhan’s body, through her armpits, chest, and thighs, then abruptly tightened!
"Um!"
Yu Youhan’s face changed, a muffled groan escaping her lips.
The Dao Power gathered around her dissipated instantly, her body stiff as she toppled forward, landing right on the two of them.
The room went silent, the atmosphere plunged into dead stillness.
The Empress, stunned, murmured to herself, "Just as I thought, the reason you don’t dare act isn’t concern for national backlash, but this red ribbon..."
"It suppresses your cultivation, and only Chen Mo can release it, right?"
Yu Youhan bit her lip, turning away without speaking.
Seeing this, the Empress felt more certain of her guess, a smirk playing at her lips as she sat up, crossing her arms, scornfully saying, "Weren’t you quite the firecracker earlier? Why are you silent now?"
Yu Youhan said in a deep voice, "Chen Mo, what are you waiting for? Hurry and release !"
Chen Mo, however, shook his head for the first ti, "Forgive , but I can’t comply."
"What do you an?" Yu Youhan’s brows furrowed, "Are you planning on betraying ?"
Before Chen Mo could respond, the Empress chuckled lightly, "That’s not right; Chen Mo has always been mine, where’s the betrayal?"
Yu Youhan ignored her, her verdant eyes fixed intently on Chen Mo, as if trying to discern sothing from his face.
Yet Chen Mo kept his gaze lowered, refusing to et her eyes.
Yu Youhan’s cheeks grew pale, her eyes filled with disappointnt.
With her hands on her hips, the Empress proudly exclaid, "Little thief, you promised to help , and since this demoness can’t fight back now, if not now, then when?"
The last ti Yu Youhan had spanked her until she’d been bedridden for a while, now she could finally take revenge!
She must give this wicked woman a piece of her mind!
"Yes."
Chen Mo responded, getting up.
Yu Youhan felt a sourness spreading in her heart, biting her lip hard enough to nearly draw blood. Yet, she didn’t struggle further, resigning herself to closing her eyes.
All those promises of undying devotion were re lies.
"Forget it, I guess I misjudged you."
"Since you’ve made your choice, from today onwards, our bond is severed..."
Before she finished speaking, a sudden exclamation sounded beside her.
"Hey?"
"What, what are you doing?!"
