Chapter 263 Four Tasks

However, the facts were beyond her expectations.

Xiao Jue hooked her chin, stared at her in the darkness, and put forward conditions that she could never have imagined.

"Before we get married, Qingyi must come to the palace to see me every day, unless she is absolutely busy. Also, during our time together, Qingyi must take the initiative..."

Shen Qingyi: "..."

Is this definitely a condition?

Also, it’s okay to go to the palace to see him, but what’s the point of asking her to take the initiative?

The more I thought about it, the more embarrassed I felt, and I couldn't help feeling awkward and embarrassed.

"Well, by proactive, I mean Qingyi should take the initiative to get close to me. Since we are together, then we can't avoid doing what lovers should do. Qingyi, do you agree?"

Without waiting for her to speak, he leaned closer and added softly in her ear.

Shen Qingyi's heartbeat trembled, and she endured the discomfort all over her body, and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, please don't be too outrageous..."

It would be fine if she did something, but why did she have to take the initiative?

"Is it outrageous? But I think this is quite normal. If Qingyi disagrees, then the matter of the imperial edict will be dropped."

Shen Qingyi: "..."

"Your Majesty, can't we discuss this further?"

He refused immediately and mercilessly.

"No, I forgot to mention that although the imperial decree has been dropped, your entry into the palace will not be changed."

"Shen Qingyi, since you have agreed to get along with me, then no matter what happens, we must continue to get along."

Very good, very domineering, worthy of being the king of a country. Shen Qingyi gritted her teeth, feeling very dissatisfied in her heart, but there was nothing she could do.

The emperor's order cannot be disobeyed. If he insists on having her enter the palace, then neither her parents nor she can refuse.

If she can't get the imperial edict, she will be trapped in the deep palace for the rest of her life.

After pondering for a moment, she said helplessly, "Your Majesty, how do you want me to take the initiative? Why don't you tell me first so I can hear it?"

If it wasn't so difficult for her to accept, it's not impossible to consider it.

He didn't say anything, but lowered his head and moved closer to her, looking at her carefully. Then, he gently kissed her lips...

"so……"

"And this..."

In the following time, he taught her with his own actions how to take the initiative towards him in the future.

Shen Qingyi's consciousness completely collapsed, and she was in a daze. She had no idea how much of the key knowledge she had remembered.

The next day.

The first ray of sunlight in the early morning shone down. Shen Yuanhong was already dressed and standing on the steps, staring at the direction of the courtyard gate, as if waiting for someone.

However, there was no sign of the person waiting there.

His patience ran out, so he raised his leg and took the initiative to attack. After a while, he walked to the outside of Chen Yaoxing's yard.

The two brothers' yards were next to each other. Chen Mu happened to come out of the yard. After seeing him, he paused for a moment and then walked over.

"Good morning, Dad."

Shen Yuanhong hummed, turned his head and looked towards the courtyard on the right, and said, "I guess Chen Yaoxing hasn't woken up yet. I'll go call him. What are you doing?"

After all, they are father and son, Chen Mu also planned so.

He smiled and said, "I'll go with you."

When the father and son arrived at Chen Yaoxing's yard, Chen Yaoxing had already woken up, but had not yet gotten up.

When Mo Yun came in to report, he was leaning against the head of the bed in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Second Young Master, the Duke and the Crown Prince are here and want to see you."

Hearing the sound, Shen Yaoxing instantly returned to normal.

He turned his head to look at Mo Yun, yawned and said lazily, "What are you waiting for? Hurry and invite my father and eldest brother in."

Mo Yun's eyes moved, and he looked him up and down, giving him a weak reminder.

"Second Young Master, you haven't changed your clothes yet. Are you sure you want to meet the Duke and the Crown Prince in such dishevel?"

Although we are a family, we cannot completely ignore etiquette.

If the Duke saw the Second Young Master so untidy and unbecoming, he would probably be so angry that he would scold him again.

"It's okay. I'm not feeling well. Dad won't blame me."

He waved his hands, looking nonchalant, which left Mo Yun speechless.

Apart from looking lazy, how could he look unwell at all?

It would be strange if the Duke believed him.

But since the master has said so, what else can he, a servant, say except obeying orders?

Mo Yun retreated helplessly. Soon, Shen Yuanhong and Shen Yaoxing came in one after another. They saw the guy leaning lazily on the head of the bed at a glance.

Shen Yuanhong's face immediately turned dark, and he strode over and sat beside the bed, glaring at him.

"Now that you're awake, why don't you get up?"

A day’s plan begins in the morning. Who would stay in bed late?

It's such a good time, but instead of getting up to practice or study, he lies there like a corpse, looking like a complete playboy.

It’s okay if he just stays in bed and doesn’t change his clothes, but how can he have the nerve to let anyone into the room?

"Oh, Dad, it's so early in the morning, don't be angry. Anger hurts your liver. It's not worth it to hurt your body over such a small thing."

"If Dad gets hurt, Mom will be heartbroken when she finds out. Mom loves Dad so much, how can Dad bear to see Mom in pain?"

Shen Yuanhong: "..."

Chen Mu: “…”

This guy is really good with his mouth.

No wonder he was always causing trouble since he was a child, but rarely got beaten.

The corners of Shen Yuanhong's mouth twitched, and he was too lazy to argue with him about staying in bed and not changing his clothes.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense. You knew I was waiting for you this morning, but why didn't you get up? You even asked me to come find you. You're really showing off!"

Listening to his father's scolding, Chen Yaoxing didn't care at all and defended himself with a smile.

"How could I? How dare I act so arrogantly in front of you, Dad? Please don't misunderstand me. I remember what you told me last night and I want to get up early to find you."

"What can I do? I can't wake up. I only woke up after my father and elder brother came..."

Whether this was true or false, no one knew except himself. Shen Yuanhong just said it casually and didn't really care about it.

After a moment of silence, Shen Yuanhong said in a deep voice, "Stop talking nonsense and get down to business."

The Shen family knew exactly what this serious matter referred to.

Speaking of this, Chen Yaoxing's expression turned serious, and an unprecedented solemnity appeared on his delicate and enchanting face.

"There are four missions this time. The main one is to sleep with Xiao Yelin and directly bring the protagonist's relationship back on track. The mission period is one month."

"Besides this, there are three more branches."

"Side quest one: Get rid of the emperor. This quest has no time limit or method restrictions. It will help Xiao Yelin remove the stumbling block to ascending the throne."

"Side quest 2, Chen Yaoxing, that's me..."

"Regarding my mission, there are options. You can use props to make me lose my memory directly, or you can set me up to commit a serious crime and sow discord between me and you..."

"He extended a helping hand to me when I was most helpless, won my favor, and laid the groundwork for his future rift with Uncle Seven."
