Liang Deming waved to another guard and whispered. "Follow this trail."
Tyler instantly understood what the male lead was doing. Even his senior was doubting whether this was a natural occurrence or man-made. Even he wanted to go inside the forest and find the person who just left hurriedly. It seemed as if there was a spy among them who left because their cover was blown. If there was a spy among them, it could have either been a guard or the servants.
Just then, he heard the male lead asking in a low voice, "You know her secret, don't you?" He pointed at a particular female lead dressed as a servant.
Tyler flashed a smile and nodded. "Let's talk about that in private.
The male lead nodded and didn't say a thing. He didn't even ask Tyler why the latter knew about such a thing.
To be honest, he didn't think that Yan Huan could have done this. Even though she was willful, she would never collaborate with her stepbrother, Wang Mao. According to the storyline, she hated this brother of hers and collected the black materials against him to use them for her benefit.
So every time she would go to a clan, everyone would let her pass through the main gates without hesitation. Wang Mao knew that if he were to make her dissatisfied, she would directly send the evidence against him to the imperial court.
So Tyler was confident about this matter. That was the reason why he believed firmly that a spy had joined the group who kept sharing palace information with the Wang Clan.
After half an hour, everyone found themselves seated near a river that the guards had found. The imperial guard who had gone after the trail had also returned and explained what he saw. "Your Majesty, I saw a female servant who was running toward the woods. She was wearing her usual maid uniform, and she looked very familiar. I think I've seen her before."
After hearing the guard's report, the Emperor frowned and asked, "Did you see where she went?"
The guard shook his head and answered, "I don't know, Your Majesty. But she seemed afraid."
"We just lost a possible convict." Tyler sighed and shook his head.
The male lead pursed his lips and turned toward Tyler. "Let's go and see."
The latter understood that this person wanted to ask about the female lead. So he nodded without saying a single word. Just as they were about to leave, they heard Yan Huan's crying voice. "Your Majesty, why are you leaving me alone here? There are so many mosquitoes here!"
And she scratched her arms. Even though she and her mother had suffered when they were kicked out of the clan, the female lead never had to live in the forest out of desperation and beg for food. Her mother was beautiful, and she quickly joined a restaurant as a waitress. But now, when the female lead was in the forest, she wanted to seek comfort from her husband. Little did she know that this husband only married her in the name and never planned to accept her formally as his wife.
But when Tyler heard that timid voice, irritation in his heart grew to a greater extent. "No need."
The Emperor could tell that his baby had gotten angry again after listening to Yan Huan's tone. His lips curved up to form a smile. His little Empress was a big jar of vinegar.
When they were finally alone, the male lead hugged his baby from behind and gently bit the man's earlobe. He could feel Tyler's body trembling in his arms as he used his expert tongue to play with that earlobe, sucking and licking that flexible thing.
"Your Majesty." Tyler's voice was so low that one would have to strain his ears to hear it. He tried to escape from the male lead's embrace, but his effort was in vain. "Weren't we going to talk about Yan Hua?"
"In a bit." The Emperor mumbled against that earlobe and took it in his mouth again. "Let's enjoy first."
Tyler's bad mood that had risen due to the female lead slowly went down because of his senior's actions. He knew that this person was perhaps doing this deliberately, but he still liked it. So for a moment, he didn't say a single word and leaned back on his senior's broad shoulders to give this person more access.
When one is given an inch, one will steal a mile. So the male lead smiled against his baby's flexible earlobe, and his hands instantly went inside the person's clothes. The expert fingers traced circles on soft skin as Tyler trembled again. The hand felt cold against his warm skin. Suddenly, those fingers went up and pinched a certain spot. A moan rolled out of Tyler's throat at that.
"Y-Your Majesty, someone might see us." Tyler used his last bit of restraint to stop his senior. If you multiply ordinary sexual pleasure with ten, it could be equal to the ger's body. So he was on the verge of releasing something from his hot bulging rod.
"So what?" The male lead continued to tease the ger's body to his satisfaction and played with his baby's earlobe. "They will run away after seeing us."
Just then, as if confirming Tyler's suspicion, they heard the sound of a foot crushing dried leaves on the ground from the bushes. Tyler's body stiffened as he glanced in the direction. Even the male lead paused and looked at that place. Then they exchanged a glance and walked over to the bushes before moving the leaves away.
An imperial guard jolted and hurriedly said, "I didn't see anything!"
The Emperor's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Why're you here?!"
"Your Majesty, hadn't you told me to follow you and the Empress all the time?" The guard wanted to cry with bitter tears. He was clearly doing his job, but why did he suddenly feel like he had committed a crime and the Emperor was going to punish him?
Tyler saw his senior's mood and grabbed the other's arms. "I told you someone would see us." His face was still flushed, but his eyes were coldly looking at his senior as if he were trying to give a warning.
