"I will strive to become stronger, and one day, I will stand by her side openly and honorably!"
?!
The Empress was stunned.
She gazed at those passionate eyes, her expression filled with confusion.
Of high status, likes beautiful clothes, feels lonely and solitary, secretly aiding him in many ways... Isn't that describing me?
"Stop speaking!"
She snapped back to reality, her oval face blushing, ears bright red and burning, hurriedly pinching the incense to cease it.
To disperse the scent quickly, she waved her sleeves, fanning the air.
Originally intending to use the Heart-Seeking Incense to make Chen Mo admit his sordid thoughts and nip his wayward ideas in the bud.
Unexpectedly, this little thief actually confessed to her?!
And in such an overly sentimental way!
"Resistant to sneers, disregarding life, yet wanting to be with me... It's outright rebellious and utterly absurd!"
"I knew he harbored ill intentions!"
