Chapter 1014: Chapter 1012: Sneaking a Glance at Him

“`

This was the only thing he could do for her.

“If you’re going to take a look, why not take me with you… to take a look?”

Su Yingxue suddenly felt a rush of enthusiasm, her eyes sparkling.

“No.”

Glancing at her belly, Zi Wei decisively refused.

Before going to sleep, Zhilan had repeatedly instructed him to watch over Su Yingxue, to ensure that even if she couldn’t sleep, she wouldn’t do anything rash.

“Do you doubt your ability to protect me?”

Su Yingxue had known he would refuse and had taken a step back in order to advance.

“It’s not that, but still no.”

Zi Wei’s defense caught her off guard.

Su Yingxue gritted her teeth in frustration, “Really brainwashed by Zhilan, why is it never okay!”

No longer as obedient as before.

“Zi Wei, you should remember that I am your master. Even though you are married, now that you have been lent back to me, you still have to listen to me, to protect me! You can’t just follow Zhilan’s random orders! Look at me now, aren’t I in great spirits?” Su Yingxue suddenly stood up, and the cold draft from the roof beams made her shiver slightly.

Even though she was already wearing a cloak, Zi Wei still habitually took off his own clothes to drape over her.

“Still no.”

That was Zi Wei’s answer to her.

Su Yingxue was really annoyed, “Zi Wei, are you listening or not? If not, go back to your wife right now! I won’t need you to watch over me anymore!”

“Don’t!”

A flicker of panic crossed Zi Wei’s eyes, along with a hint of fear.

He did not want to be sent back so soon.

He wanted to stay by her side for as long as possible.

But her desire to go see Chu Yihan made his brows furrow deeply, “Your child is very important.”

“Of course I know he’s important; he’s so restless. If I take him to see his father, with his father’s imperial authority to awe him, maybe he will calm down.”

Su Yingxue patted her belly, deliberately for the little one to hear.

And her belly, indeed, responded with a slight twitch.

“Ouch!”

Su Yingxue supported her waist and said with a somewhat smug smile, “Little monster, so you know fear? It’s your father who’s formidable, after all!”

She had been dealing with the little monster for days, knowing only too well how it would make waves in her belly and cause her constant discomfort, but now that Chu Yihan was mentioned, she didn’t feel so nauseous.

Pointing to her belly, Su Yingxue smiled at Zi Wei, “See, only my husband can calm this little monster down! Take me to see him, and maybe I won’t have to suffer every day!”

She pleaded weakly, and although Zi Wei was cold and merciless, he had feelings only for her.

“Mhm.”

He agreed.

But throughout the journey, he protected Su Yingxue closely.

Having entered and exited the imperial palace numerous times, Zi Wei had memorized its layout and expertly led Su Yingxue to the Emperor’s sleeping chambers.

However, Chu Yihan wasn’t there.

Su Yingxue’s eyes darted around, “Zi Wei, let’s check the imperial study.”

“Alright.”

Zi Wei took her, moving silently to the imperial study.

With Chu Yihan’s ascension, the imperial palace’s guards had been replaced by his men, and security was much tighter.

Had it not been for him, Su Yingxue certainly would have been discovered.

But from a distance, through a window, Su Yingxue saw Chu Yihan hunched over his desk and felt an intense sense of satisfaction, “He really is here! So busy!”

“Be quiet.”

Zi Wei pulled her into a corner to hide.

Shortly after, Mo Qi came out to question the guards at the door, “Have you detected any anomalies? What is that noise outside?”
