Translator: Storm in a Teacup
“Tut! Why not? I just want to go there to see who will be humiliated. Doesn’t Si Yuhan want to humiliate me? I’ll just be dressed like this today. What could he do? If I couldn’t wound him up, I’d despise myself.”
As he said this, he stuffed another piece of pastries into his mouth like he was in a fit of pique.
“Oh, you want to wound me up, right?” A faint voice came from outside the palace.
Then, a group of servants knelt down. “Long live Your Majesty!” The voices rang through Ruanhan Palace.
Ke Ruan was choking on the pastries. He hurriedly poured a cup of tea and drank it. Then he was able to swallow the pastries.
“What’s wrong? Do you think I treat you so well that you are openly hostile towards me, my dear?”
The cold voice did not contain any emotion, with a trace of chilliness in the hot weather.
To be honest, Ke Ruan was afraid of the hero whenever he faced him.
That night in the imperial study, he had been so angry that he blocked the fear out of his mind to challenge him. Later, he reacted and was scared. After he came back, his legs were too feeble carry him.
If he really was hostile towards him, Didn’t he wanted to save his own life? When the male lead was still young, Ke Ruan worked so hard to leave a good impression on him for survival.
And it seemed to work somehow now. Otherwise, why had he still been living well?
In short, it was always right to ride on the male lead’s coattails.
Besides enjoying himself wherever he was, Ke Ruan felt that his biggest characteristic was that he could see his situation clearly by taking stock.
Thinking about it, Ke Ruan adjusted his facial expression.
“Of course not, Your Majesty. You must’ve misheard,” he added to confirm his words, “Yes, that’s it. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them. I definitely haven’t said that.”
Ke Ruan said with a flattering smile. And there was a faint smile in Si Yuhan’s eyes. If someone else had such a look, he would just find it hypocritical and disgusting, but when it was Ke Ruan who did it, he would find it cute. Every time he was thinking about a bad idea, he would keep his eyes averted, which made him look vivacious.
“Really?”
He asked in such a bland tone.
“Xiaoluzi, tell me about it.”
Xiaoluzi, who was asked by name, trembled and looked carefully at Ke Ruan before kowtowing shakily to Si Yuhan.
“Your Majesty, the Empress…”
“I’m going to change my clothes right away, immediately. Your Majesty, you can go about your business first,” Ke Ruan immediately ran towards his palace with his speed.
‘If I don’t run, I must be dead. It doesn’t feel good for my neck to be grabbing. It’s just wearing a dress. That’s not a big deal.”
Si Yuhan pulled the hem of his clothes and sat in the seat where Ke Ruan had originally sat. And his temperature still remained. His long fingers pinched the teacup up that Ke Ruan just had and none knew what the mind behind his black eyes was thinking.
“Go in and serve the Empress,” Si Yuhan looked at the palace maids with a satisfied expression on his face. They didn’t waste his thoughts of choosing them by himself.
If Ke Ruan knew what Si Yuhan was thinking, he would definitely sneer and say, “Thank you.”
The palace maids who were kneeling on the ground were under the order, hurriedly got up and walked towards the inner hall. They would rather stay with the empress than His Majesty. Everyone knew his Majesty’s methods, but it wasn’t his Majesty that he didn’t let these gossips reach Ruanhan Palace.
Besides, the empress had just cursed His Majesty so much but he didn’t get angry. According to that, it seemed that His Majesty really adored the empress.
Therefore, it must be right to stay with the empress.
