If removing this scar will make you happy, zhen can have it disappear. But, what you truly care about, is it the scar?” Seeing Anhui’s movements, Liyou could discern what Anhui was thinking.
Anhui raised his head and there was a trace of hesitation in his expression. Of course, what he truly cared about was not only the scar, but was afraid he could not present a perfect version of himself to the Empress. Even if he was ten times more beautiful than he was now, he could not let go of his hesitation. Because he cared too much and would always feel that he was unworthy.
“Anhui is just like this. Anhui does not want to change. Its cold outside, Empress, Anhui will attend to you in the bath….” The Empress’ questioning had allowed him to realize that the Empress was always looking after him and seemed to know about his inferiority complex. This was enough and besides, the Empress had not chosen him solely because of his appearance…it was just, thinking up to this point, Anhui suddenly had another doubt. Just what did the Empress see in him?
Liyou stepped into the hot spring and the slightly hot temperature of the water made her feel a little uncomfortable. Her baseline body temperature was low and she did not enjoy hot springs very much. If it wasn’t for Anhui and Feng Xue, she would not have even stepped a foot in.
Liyou leaned against the edge of the pool and released her tensed emotions after acclimating to the temperature. Although she did not feel tired physically, she did feel mental fatigue. She did not like to lead a stressful life. She was more used to being at ease and preferred a more leisurely pace.
Anhui and Feng Xue reclined next to Liyou, massaging Liyou’s arms and shoulders so that she could feel more comfortable. But, it is just that Liyou had become a little restless because the two people’s breaths were too close! She was hungry!
Liyou opened her eyes, her gaze wandering between the two as she wondered which one to taste first. In the end, after a lot of consideration, she felt that Feng Xue had better physical stamina. After all, Anhui was an ordinary person. He had been running nonstop for a few days and if he lost any blood now, it was very possible that he would faint.
“Feng Xue, bear with it.” Liyou’s hand rested on Feng Xue’s shoulder and she pulled Feng Xue with a little force. Then, she lowered her head and bit on Feng Xue’s neck. In their wake, her fang marks were left behind, which were marks that would never fade away and those imprints solely belonged to her.
Sweet tangy blood flowed out, bringing out Liyou’s insatiability and because her target was Feng Xue, there was no need to suppress her desires, so she simply enjoyed a delicious meal to the fullest.
At this moment, a loud commotion suddenly came from outside the hot spring. The cries of “The King Dowager has arrived” shocked everyone present. Anhui and Feng Xue glanced at Liyou, who was still feeding, at a loss. They wanted to stand up and give his greetings, but because one was bitten by Liyou and the other one was being hold onto, both could not move.
Among this hesitation, Luo Yu had already entered the hot spring with some urgency to his steps and was stunned on the spot. Although he knew that Liyou was taking a bath, he never imagined that he would encounter such a scene.
Once Liyou was about full, she let go of Feng Xue, licking the blood from the corner of her lips and looked at Luo Yu wickedly, asking, ‘Father Dowager, have you come here to find this child subject?”
Luo Yu had not fully come back to his senses yet and was still recalling the scene of Liyou hugging the two men on her left and right. After hearing Liyou’s “Father Dowager”, he felt as if his whole body had frozen over. Liyou had called him this before and he hadn’t thought anything was wrong. Later, when Liyou stopped addressing him in this way, he did not feel anything wrong, but now that “Father Dowager ” seemed to leave him in a foolish trance and made him feel icy all over. But why?
“Father Dowager, do you have something to say?” Ever since that night, to have made such an unfeeling person so jittery, it was her fault. In addition, at her side, she had Feng Xue, Anhui, Luo Weiqing and countless others in the harem. Why should another person be unhappy because of her? Moreover, she was not willing to feel irritated because of others.
Liyou looked at Luo Yu differently, becoming reserved and detached, without a hint of the warmth and possessiveness of the past.
Luo Yu had also discovered that Liyou was looking at him differently than before. That gaze made him feel even colder and as he opened his mouth, he could not utter a word.
“If you do not have anything to say, please leave. As you have seen, it is not convenient to hold a conversation here.” Liyou looked at Anhui and Feng Xue. The two had become a little embarrassed by Luo Yu’s sudden appearance. Their bodies retreated deeper into the water, their heads bowed in order to minimize their sense of existence. Although they looked a little pitiful, they also made people feel that they were quite cute.
When Liyou looked at the two of them, there was a natural warmth in her eyes. She even stretched out a hand to pat Feng Xue’s long silver hair and when she saw the blood on his neck, she used her finger to tenderly wipe it off for him, incredibly gentle.
Luo Yu looked at Liyou’s movement and his eyes were filled with sorrow, but he could not detect it. He just tried his best to restore his state of mind back to normal and suppressed the very uncomfortable feeling in his heart and replied in a hoarse voice that felt unfamiliar. He said, “Since the Empress has returned, have a good rest, as your father, I will not disturb you any longer.”
After Luo Yu finished speaking, he turned and left, his back figure hurrying as if he was escaping something. Liyou kept looking at the back until it disappeared from her sight and then she slowly retracted her gaze.
“Does it hurt?” Liyou asked softly as her hands hovered over the fang marks on Feng Xue’s neck.
Feng Xue shook his head, feeling a little frightened. He felt that this kind of master was a little unfamiliar as if she was restraining something.
Seeing Feng Xue’s cute reaction, Liyou grinned. The evil wickedness was gone and was instead replaced but a hint of lonely tenderness. She softly uttered, “Let’s continue.”
At this time, neither Anhui or Feng Xue dared to say anything more. Anhui lightly rubbed Liyou’s shoulder a few times and then rested his head on it. He softly stated, “No matter what you are, whatever decision you make, I will always be on your side. Please, don’t be….” Anhui wanted to say to not be sad, but seeing the Empress’ insipid appearance, he felt that he shouldn’t say it. Suddenly, he found himself to be clumsy and did not even know how to say comforting words. He could clearly feel that the Empress was not happy, but he could not say anything nice.
“Anhui, you are really not suited for comforting people. But, I am fine.” Liyou turned her head and placed a light peck on Anhui’s forehead. She then directly stared into Anhui’s eyes and very seriously said, “Anhui, I want to marry you!”
Maybe she hadn’t thought careful about what she just said and she had just blurted it out without a second thought. But after saying it, she did not have the slightest bit of regret. Anhui was already hers and she wanted to give him a title. Otherwise, she would feel that she had wronged him and Anhui was worthy of her doting and pampering.
“I, I….”Anhui stammered. This declaration had occurred so suddenly and he did not know how to react.
“Hehe, Anhui, you have become foolish again.” Liyou smiled, showing off her warmth.
Feng Xue was a little disappointed and envious, but at this time, Liyou whispered in his ear, causing Feng Xue’s eyes to widen and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Liyou had said, “Do not be grieved, I have seen your body, do you think I will allow for it to become someone else’s? How could this little fox not figure it out? Since she had asked him to serve and bathe with her today, she had already accepted his existence. There was no need to feel sad and lonely because she treated Anhui well. Seeing this, she only wanted to tease him more.
Feng Xue’s silver eyes shone like a precious gem. He knew that he had not heard it wrong and knew that it was not a dream. He had been looking forward to this day for a very long time.
By the time the three of them had bathed and changed clothes, it was already past noon. Liyou took Anhui and Feng Xue back to her chambers. After seeing Anhui have lunch, she let them both go back to rest. Both had suffered quite a lot and needed time to calm down, as such, they were dismissed and left.
And after having feeded on Feng Xue’s spiritually potent blood, she felt sleepy. Thinking she had not seen Luo Weiqing for many days, she took Feng Ying to the Fengqing Palace.
Luo Weiwing already knew that the Empress had returned to the Imperial Palace, but did not dare to meet her without the Empress’ summons. He was so full of longing as he kept gazing out the window. But, he did not expect to actually see the Empress’ figure to appear within view.
“This consort greets the Empress, long live the Empress, long live!” Luo Weiqing’s voice was very excited and he almost ran over to Liyou. His eyes were full of the person he had longed for so long. If it weren’t for those scruples of etiquette, he would have wanted to rush over to hug the person in front of him and tell her how much he had missed her.
“Weiqing, did you miss zhen?” Liyou took Weiqing’s hand and sat down with him, asking in an amused tone.
“Miss, really miss.” Longed so much that he didn’t even care for tea and rice, sleeping or eating and all he could think about was her!
“Hehe, tuly great, then this is your reward.” Liyou smiled lightly at Luo Weiqing’s honesty, pulling him in as she gave him a deep kiss, strong and passionate. She didn’t let go of any corner of Luo Weiqin’s mouth and savagely tasted to her heart’s content, making Luo Weiqing breathless from her actions.
“Zhen is sleepy, let us go to bed together.” Although it did not seem to be good manners to pull people into bed as soon as they met, Liyou did not care so much. She led Luo Weiqing by the hand to the bed and dismissed all the servants with a wave of her hand.
Luo Weiqing’s expression became more shy and he asked timidly, “Your Majesty, have you eaten lunch? To do this kind of thing during the day…” Of course Luo Weiqing could not really refuse, but he still felt very embarrassed.
“What are you thinking, it is merely a nap. If you want, zhen can give what you want when I wake up…” Liyou teasingly looked at Luo Weiqing’s blushing face and pulled him on the bed. She laced one hand around his waist and gently closed her eyes.
She had really wanted to sleep and the rest would have to wait when she awoke later.
Luo Weiqing blushed heavily because he had misunderstood the Empress’ meaning. He had an embarrassed expression and his heart beating abnormally fast. In addition, seeing the Empress’ joyful appearance, how could he just sleep after she said that? But, he did not dare to make too much movement, for fear of disturbing the Empress rest. He merely secretly stared at the visage of the sleeping Empress.
The person he was longing for was right in front of him, and he needed to seize the opportunity to look his fill.
If removing this scar will make you happy, zhen can have it disappear. But, what you truly care about, is it the scar?” Seeing Anhui’s movements, Liyou could discern what Anhui was thinking.
Anhui raised his head and there was a trace of hesitation in his expression.
