"... um… your majesty... "
Snow couldn't help but shoot a wide eye stare to the quiet Zhuang that was being silent for a few minutes now while inwardly snickering at a safe distance, although all Snow wanted to do right now is to roll his eyes while sighing in helplessness along with a pampering feeling to his suddenly clingy lover.
"... I'm alright now."
Snow lip couldn't help but twitch at such a blatant lie of the Emperor only to swiftly glance sideways from the penetrating silver eyes that he met which clearly spoke of his lover growing affectionate emotion.
My love… sorry… but it's not the time yet… especially when I still need to be hidden in the shadow … and well, I also need to reveal my real gender later on…
Honestly, Snow felt how cliche his situation was along with an added playful and dramatic life this world mission is.
While obediently letting the Emperor gently pull Snow up before gripping the outer robe that his lover has placed over his shoulder in order to cover the exposed skin.
"Thank you for saving me again your Majesty…"
Snow politely made a respectful bow to the Emperor that have wanted to stop him only to stop at the gentle shake of his head, emphasizing that Snow couldn't do that because he is the Monarch of the Moon Empire while he is only merely a young lady that was always being saved by him.
The difference in their status would not allow Snow to become disrespectful and casual whenever he interact with him, at least, not when the situation needed it to, for example, what happened a moment ago.
Snow is clearly speaking the distinct wall between then two of them while keeping a safe and proper distance with each other, seemingly forgetting of how they have been intimately close with each other a moment ago causing the Emperor to show a depressing frown alongside with a confuse Zhuang that couldn't understand why the young woman is always trying to keep her distance toward his cousin.
No matter what Zhuang cousin is still the Emperor, wouldn't that status, power, and influence enough to make this young woman become interested? Especially when it was clearly being shown that the Emperor treated her in a special way?
Wouldn't anyone become ecstatic and delighted by such attention? Ah, a woman's mind is so confusing to figure out.
"Please allow me to check Wen Zian's situation."
Snow just acted obliviously unaware of the two men's reactions, even the way that his lover suddenly let out a cold chill along with the dark atmosphere around him after mentioning the young man's name.
Inwardly shaking his head at his lover's jealousy though Snow understands it since he will feel the same before he began to walk toward the tied up young man that has been knocked out with that just one attack from the furious Emperor.
As for eating the tofu of his lover, well since the Emperor also secretly did it then the two of them are even now, ah such a nice feeling it was touching the Emperor silver ears.
However, when Snow kneeled down with his hand raised toward the young man, his pupil constricted when the analysis with his appraisal skill started to show how Wen Shihong's nephew's mental health stability was beginning to break apart.
"Yao!"
Ignoring the worried shout of the Emperor, even when Snow felt the way the tight but not painful grip on his shoulder didn't stop him from using his spiritual hand permanent skill along with the original special power that let him see the status of a person more clearly in the physical form.
And when the young man has suddenly woke up with bloodshot eyes before struggling in an insane manner along with unusual strength was swiftly knocked out by an alert Zhuang while Snow has once more found himself in the arms of the Emperor while breathing a bit harder as he gently leans his head upon the firm shoulder.
"... haa… your majesty… it is the same status that lets you… react that night before… your majesty, there is a person… who has been using an unusual special power… all around the Capital and affecting the people.."
In Snow eyesight, those pink light has suddenly turned into dangerous red light color causing the person that was affected by it to turn into a violent and forceful person with only one minded action.
Even Snow can perceive that it was not a perfect power and skill, those people with a strong mentality and strong will can definitely fight back with the pink aura effect that the woman has been using toward those charm men while it will basically turn to an almost forceful and violent manner if it couldn't control a person.
Furthermore, it will start breaking a person's mental health if one is failed to fulfill the request or mission that was given toward them, especially when the person is captured in order to hide the evidence.
Such a ruthless and cruel skill while Snow can feel the way that the user is selfish and only care about her well being and situation that she doesn't mind throwing people who won't completely fall for her charms.
"Your Majesty this person is--!"
Snow that wanted to explain more suddenly felt his body being lifted up while piercing silver eyes warningly gazing down at him when he wanted to open his mouth to speak in resistance.
"Enough… go rest. We will handle the problem."
Seeing as the Emperor was in a rather bad mood while Snow saw the way that Zhuang was shaking his head can only close his mouth while behaving obediently in the arms of his lover as the two of them finally leave the place.
"Starting today, there will be people that will be protecting you in the shadows."
And when Snow was placed down inside his bed-chamber after finally arriving, the Emperor has suddenly declared such a matter causing him to turned around while bowing his head in gratefulness at the kindness he was receiving from the Emperor.
Well, it as surprising that his lover lasted this much from ordering people to keep following him around while observing every action he made in order to inform him about his daily life.
The stalkerish tendency, one of his lover's normal actions has once more appeared, although other people might feel disturbed about it but since this is Snow lover then he doesn't mind it one bit.
However, when Snow saw the way that the Emperor has become stiff about his respectful manner and then turning around to leave the room without another word especially after showing complicated such silver eyes has finally caused Snow to inwardly sigh.
I am sorry love…
How come when Snow suddenly met an innocent and a bit more reasonable lover that he just has to act in this manner?
Although Snow understood that his lover is strong enough to handle the way he is acting but he still genuinely feel bad about it.
Nevertheless, Snow mission will have to be his number priority, at least, it was not a mission to cheat on his lover so he can be grateful at that, well, it's not like Snow will choose his mission to cheat on his lover though since that is one of his bottom lines.
For now, Snow has prompted his lover to stop leaving with a shocking and bold question that could easily lose his neck if this person before him isn't his lover.
"Your majesty… do you...in some way… like me?"
Snow can no longer keep being oblivious with the way that the Emperor was showing his affection in the passing day, especially when it's growing deeper and becoming more open, he wouldn't be surprised if his lover will suddenly snap up and accidentally kissing him one of this day.
It was all because of the shameless nature of his lover that will let him do it.
Ah… such an innocent and easy to tease lover is going to make Snow dearly miss it, maybe if he met another innocent and reasonable lover in another world then he will absolutely make sure to properly tease and bully him.
"If I informed you that I have fallen in love with you… will you accept my affection?"
When the Emperor has suddenly turned around and spoken in a frank and honest manner while taking a step forward with a certain conviction on those silver eyes cause Snow to take a few step backs while gripping the outer robe that was wrapped around his delicate body and bowing his head.
"Your Majesty… I am sorry…"
"You… don't feel… the same… way?"
Snow who felt his lover hurtful and bewildering questioning voice can only turn his head and close his eyes while ignoring the depressing aura around the room.
"I am sorry…"
Love! I will really pamper you to heaven later on!
Snow suddenly felt like a scumbag, why is it that he can no longer be out in the open while blinding people on dog foods with his lover after the previous three worlds?
When Flake spoke about the world mission becoming harder from being unlucky, Snow knew that it wasn't supposed to be this kind of hard matter!
"I… see… I'll go now… but don't forget to look after your health."
And with that, Snow secretly watches as his lover leaves with a dark atmosphere around him.
Ah… somehow… Snow suddenly has the feeling that he might have blackened his lover a bit? Is he going to experience a black room play later on? Somehow he suddenly felt… excited!
And just like Snow has predicted, after the slight disappointment, the Emperor's entire body who has a rather dark and cold atmosphere was currently planning on his head about how to let the love of his life to obediently and willingly enter the Palace and become his Empress.
Even though Lou Fang can just order a decree to let Yao enter the Palace but he will never do that even if he was the Emperor since he doesn't want to use a forceful and violent method to get his lover.
Besides, Lou Fang absolutely and wholeheartedly believes that he will be able to chase his wife, so there is no need for that desperate and perplexity matter of getting a person's love one that can only cause them harm and pain.
While Zhuang that has just finished taking all the capture people in a safe place to properly investigate can only gaze with wide eyes at his darkened cousin.
What the hell happened while I was away?
