"This little thief..."
"Always manages to surprise !"
A bold idea suddenly popped into the Empress’s mind, startling even herself. She shook her head and thought, "I must be crazy to have such thoughts?"
Just then, a large hand rested on her waist, and Chen Mo’s voice whispered into her ear, "Your Highness, have you missed these past couple of days?"
?!
The Empress’s body stiffened. With Lin Jingzhu right beside her, how could she dare to speak? She could only use her eyes to threaten him to behave.
But clearly, this had no effect on Chen Mo.
Feeling the tickling sensation on her waist and that increasingly audacious hand, the Empress’s face blushed a deep red. The intense tension and sha almost made her heart leap out!
Lin Jingzhu, noticing sothing amiss, asked puzzled, "Aunt, what’s wrong with you? Why is your breathing so rapid?"
"N-nothing..." the Empress whispered.
Just as Lin Jingzhu was about to speak, she suddenly shivered.
Her black-and-white eyes widened in surprise as she glanced at Chen Mo, then her pale face turned red as she lowered her head, saying nothing.
And the culprit, Chen Mo, sat upright, posing as an earnest student attentively listening to the lecture.
...
...
An hour later.
Wu Shuhong finished his lecture and left the classroom with his hands behind his back.
Chen Mo withdrew his hand just in ti, and the two lay slumped over the table, exhausted.
"Brother~"
Shen Zhixia bounced up to Chen Mo, not caring about the gazes of others and nestled directly into his arms, "I didn’t expect you to co, and you didn’t even tell in advance."
Ling Ningzhi stood obediently beside him, her watery eyes constantly glued to him.
"Chen Mo!"
At this mont, a sweet voice called out.
?
Chen Mo looked up to see Yu Hongyin walking briskly towards him, her bright eyes glaring, "You’re not dead?!"
Chen Mo asked in confusion, "Who told you I was dead?"
Yu Hongyin gritted her teeth, her voice trembling a bit, "Ever since you mysteriously disappeared that day in Tiannan State, we searched for days, turned the entire Great Mountain upside down, but couldn’t find any trace of you. We thought you had t with misfortune..."
Chen Mo was montarily speechless.
This indeed was an oversight on his part. He should’ve sent word of his safety in advance, not realizing how worried everyone would be.
Yu Hongyin, sensing her own loss of composure, turned her head and said, "Anyway, it’s good you’re okay. Since this matter started because of , had you died, I wouldn’t know how to face your dear friends..."
"..."
The Empress, her breathing now calm, felt a twinge of jealousy seeing the won around Chen Mo.
How many girls has this guy chard?
He was just bothering a mont ago, and now he’s so tender with others, how infuriating!
The Empress’s eyes were full of resentnt, but she didn’t dare speak, afraid of exposing her identity. Instead, she lifted her small foot and stomped on Chen Mo’s foot.
But for him, the force was nothing more than a tickle.
Chen Mo cleared his throat and said, "After returning to the capital, I was busy with affairs and forgot to send you a ssage..."
Yu Hongyin crossed her arms and snorted coldly, "Busy with affairs? Weren’t you just at the Imperial Music Bureau yesterday, hosting a party and drinking flower wine with these sect disciples? I didn’t see where you were busy."
Chen Mo: ∑(O_O;)
"Imperial Music Bureau? Hosting a party?"
The Empress was montarily dumbfounded, then her chest heaved upon realizing,
No wonder Chen Mo is held in such high esteem among these people, so that’s the reason?!
"Damn little thief!"
"I never want to deal with you again!!"
