A quarter of an hour later.
Chen Mo fell into a deep sleep.
Feeling his steady breathing, the Empress gently removed his large hand, lifted her arm, and finally freed herself from this little thief's embrace.
The tingling sensation had yet to fade, and her legs were still a bit weak.
She stood up, leaning on the bedpost, looking at the man lost in dreamland, her phoenix eyes filled with shame, anger, and annoyance.
Being kind enough to cover him with a quilt almost turned me from a good person into a married woman...
"If it weren't for your unclear mind, I would've punished you properly!"
"Hmm? Wait a minute..."
"I just pretended to be his fiancée. In his muddled state, he must think he was dreaming. What if he asks me to fulfill my promise when he wakes up?"
"Wouldn't that mean he took advantage of me for nothing?!"
Before taking the stage, she personally promised Chen Mo that if he won the Martial Arts Champion, she would grant him one request.
