"Is Saintess Gu trying to deny it?" Chen Mo raised an eyebrow and asked.
"I..."
Gu Manzhi’s cheeks turned red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
Seeing her anxious and uneasy appearance, Chen Mo shook his head and laughed, not continuing to press her.
It seems Little Gu Saintess just wanted an excuse to have him co to the Imperial Music Bureau and spend more ti with her.
Thinking carefully, Gu Manzhi should have been the first to confirm her feelings for him.
But as more and more girls appeared around him, combined with busy official duties at the Governnt, even Chen Mo, a master of ti managent, found it hard to attend to everyone, sotis neglecting her.
Recalling how, when he was recovering from injuries in the palace, Gu Manzhi and Yu’er kept pacing outside the Chen Mansion, worried and unable to eat or drink... Chen Mo’s gaze softened, and he pinched her beautiful cheek, smiling as he said:
"Alright, having you by my side is the greatest surprise for . What more could a husband ask for?"
"Stop saying nonsense. Who, who is your wife?"
"That’ll happen sooner or later."
"..."
Gu Manzhi’s eyes shimred as she shook her head and said, "I know my identity can’t be exposed to the public, and I’ve never hoped for anything official. It’s enough if you occasionally co to accompany ."
"You can choose not to want it, but I can’t choose not to give it," Chen Mo said seriously. "There will always be a place for you in the Chen Family. One day, I will marry you into the family grandly..."
But Gu Manzhi shook her head.
Chen Mo was stunned for a mont and asked, "Why, don’t you want to be with ?"
Gu Manzhi gave him a sidelong glance, pouted and said, "After being tossed around by you like that, this lifeti, I’m stuck with you. Even growing wings wouldn’t let escape... If you dare to abandon , I’ll haunt you even as a Wandering Soul!"
Chen Mo asked in confusion, "Then why did you shake your head..."
"Don’t speak carelessly. The grand carriage with eight bearers is reserved for the wife. If you promise this to other girls, how would you ask Miss Shen to cope?" Gu Manzhi traced circles on his chest with her fingers and whispered, "All I want is a small carriage with four bearers. Let Miss Shen be first, and I’ll be second. I don’t want you to struggle..."
Chen Mo laughed and asked, "Don’t you get jealous?"
"We’re all family; why fight over status?"
"Besides..."
Gu Manzhi wrapped her arms around his neck, her cheeks flushed with a captivating rosy hue, and her voice was soft enough to lt soone’s heart, "It’s said a wife can’t compare to a concubine, a concubine can’t compare to a secret affair. The taste of being a concubine can be more enjoyable than being a wife~"
"..."
This little vixen!
Chen Mo was so teased that his Qi-Blood surged, causing Yu’er to roll her eyes...
...
Steam filled the bathroom.
Chen Mo soaked in the pool and sighed contentedly.
Recalling what Gu Manzhi had just said, a hint of helplessness crossed his mind... He truly attracted too many girls, and trying to treat everyone equally was nearly impossible.
Shen Zhixia was the daughter-in-law chosen by his mother.
Besides her, there were also Little Tiger, Saintess Gu, Yu’er...
Suddenly, Chen Mo’s mind recalled the alluring face of Her Majesty the Consort.
If a day like this ever cos, who would dare compete with Consort Yu for the position of wife? Perhaps only the Holy Empress from the Eastern Royal Palace...
"Haha, what am I thinking? Am I really seeing myself as an emperor?"
Chen Mo shook his head discreetly.
In the plot of "Unmatched Immortal," only the original storyline’s female lead could see the attribute panel. Characters like Shen Zhixia, Consort Yu, and the Empress, who had no romantic lines, couldn’t see their Favorability Rating.
But one thing was certain, both Her Majesty the Consort and the Empress had particularly unique attitudes toward him, far surpassing that of a regular subject.
"I can understand the Imperial Consort position, owing to the bond with the red ling... but what about the Empress?"
"We’ve kissed and touched, yet she’s not upset with . She wasn’t even surprised when hearing I possess Dragon Qi, as if she had anticipated it..."
"And then there’s Ji Hongxiu..."
"How could a Holy Sect Daoist Venerable be so innocent?"
"She knows full well the relationship between Ling Ningzhi and , yet hasn’t intervened and seems to actually support it... What exactly is her intention?"
Chen Mo rubbed his temples and felt a headache coming on.
Originally, he just wanted to cling to Her Majesty’s big thigh, but now he finds himself surrounded by more big thighs, almost unable to handle it...
Living off won in such excess could choke a man...
At that mont, the sound of light footsteps ca from behind him.
Soon after, a pair of delicate jade hands wrapped around his neck, lifting clear water to caress his strong and robust muscles.
Chen Mo leaned his head back, comfortably resting on a soft cushion.
Looking up, even the deadly angle of viewing from below couldn’t diminish the unbelievable beauty of that face.
"Is Saintess Gu going to serve personally while I bathe?" Chen Mo said, smiling.
"Lord, you’re teasing. This humble woman is just a re woman of the dust, certainly not a Holy Daughter," the soft voice made his bones lt.
Chen Mo chuckled at her words.
Is this role-playing now?
Soon, two soft hands joined on his body.
"Yu’er?"
"Eh, it doesn’t seem like it..."
Chen Mo turned his head and was stunned.
Behind him kneeled two "Gu Manzhi’s," identical beauties indistinguishable like twins... no, triplets.
Splash—
The pool water rippled.
Gu Manzhi, wearing a light pink gauze dress, stepped into the pool; her delicate skin vaguely visible through the dim candlelight suggested emptiness under the billowing fabric...
"Are these two paper puppets?"
"It seems your Paper Puppet Technique has greatly improved; I didn’t even recognize it earlier."
Chen Mo’s expression revealed a hint of surprise.
"I cultivated them with my own Essence Blood, it took quite so effort," Gu Manzhi faced him, sitting in his embrace, her face radiant like a peach under the candlelight, whispered in his ear with breath sweet as orchids, "They’re almost identical to real people, highly proficient... Does Lord like them?"
