"Hey, Xuanyuan Che! We're arguing! What does it mean that you left so suddenly?"

She bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes filled with confusion and unwillingness, and her chest heaving violently.

"System, thanks to you for reminding me that Xuanyuan Che is here, otherwise I really don't know how to continue this drama."

Chen Xiaoru breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her red eyes, and there was a hint of imperceptible fatigue in her voice.

"That's natural."

The system responded smugly, its tone hinting at a desire for credit. "However, host, weren't you acting a bit too much just now? Slapping him, biting his tongue... This is the emperor. Aren't you afraid that he'll really turn against you?"

There was a hint of worry in the system's voice. After all, Xuanyuan Che's anger was no joke.

Chen Xiaoru put down the bronze mirror and slowly walked to the window. She looked out at the Forbidden City shrouded in the night, her eyes gradually becoming deeper. She gently stroked her still flat belly, her tone calm and firm:

"Over? No. Those who can't get what they want will always be restless. The more he can't get it, the more he will care. I just want him to know that I'm not his toy to be summoned and dismissed at will, nor am I one of those women in his harem vying for his favor. I want him to be interested in me, not just because of this child."

Her voice was soft, but it contained a stubbornness that could not be ignored.

"But, host, aren't you afraid that he will become angry and harm you? After all, he is the emperor. It would be easy for him to deal with you."

The system was still a little worried and couldn't help but remind you again.

Chen Xiaoru turned around, facing the night outside the window, with a confident smile on her face:

"Afraid? Of course I'm afraid. But what's the point of being afraid? Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it's better to take the initiative. Besides, he still needs the child in my belly and won't do anything to me easily. And..."

She paused, a sly look flashing in her eyes.

"I still have you, my system."

"Well, since you are so confident, host, then this system will wait and see."

The system sighed helplessly, with a hint of pampering in its tone, "However, host, you must be careful and don't play with fire and get burned."

"Don't worry, I know my limits." Chen Xiaoru smiled slightly, her eyes full of confidence and determination.
