Ma Qingyi looked at the tense atmosphere and wanted to say something to ease it. "That was just at the beginning..."

"Qingyi, please go out first. I want to talk to him alone!" Bai Hanxiao said unusually calmly.

Ma Qingyi was a little worried and didn't go out. Bai Hanxiao gave her a smile to reassure her.

Ma Qingyi left. Bai Hanxiao stood up and poured him a cup of tea. Mo Yufeng didn't take it, but just looked at her coldly.

Bai Hanxiao held up the teacup, then put it down and said, "I thought you wouldn't dwell on the past anymore!"

Mo Yecheng grabbed her arms with both hands, made her look at him, and said, "I don't care... I didn't care at first because I didn't know that the person you liked was actually Yufeng! The woman you love actually loves your only brother! ...Does Yufeng know?" Mo Yufeng suddenly laughed sarcastically, "How could he not know? I'm the only one who doesn't know!"

Bai Hanxiao frowned and said nothing, looking at him solemnly.

Seeing that she remained silent, Mo Yecheng thought that she agreed with what he said!

His face became even gloomier, and he directly picked her up and threw her on the bed, then rushed forward.

Bai Hanxiao is bleeding now, so she can't consummate the marriage with him!

Bai Hanxiao pushed him away in panic and said, "You...you hurry up and get off. It would be bad if others saw you like this!"

"I am the emperor. Who dares to come in without my permission?" Mo Yecheng's eyes were filled with pity and anger. He tore her clothes with his hands. Bai Hanxiao struggled to resist, but it was of no avail!

Bai Hanxiao shed tears of grievance. Mo Yecheng's hands suddenly froze, but it was only for a moment, and he continued to tear.

Bai Hanxiao looked at him crying, "Why don't you believe me... I have already given you the pendant... Why don't you believe me and even bully me..." Mo Yecheng was a little dazed.

Was I too harsh or too rude?

"...Wuwu..." Bai Hanxiao turned her head away, tears streaming down her face. Mo Yecheng gently kissed her face, kissing away her tears. "I'm sorry!..."

Bai Hanxiao pushed him away with red eyes, sat up and pulled her clothes tighter.

Mo Yufeng held his forehead, without saying a word, and suddenly turned his head, looked at Bai Hanxiao, then took a deep breath, stood up and left!

Bai Hanxiao's tears continued to flow silently.

Mo Yecheng returned to his bedroom, took a box from the bookshelf, opened it, took out the pendant that Bai Hanxiao had given him, and held it in his hand to look at it carefully.

If I give away the pendant of the Princess of Baihan Country, it means that I will be with this person for the rest of my life! I am so stupid. Even if she once liked Mo Yufeng, that is in the past. Now that she has given the pendant to him, he has already given her to me. Why should I treat her like this?

After leaving Moye City, Ma Qingyi hurried into the house and saw Bai Hanxiao clutching her clothes and crying. Ma Qingyi felt a little guilty and walked over to her, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have heard it!..."

Bai Hanxiao said nothing and shook his head.

Ma Qingyi didn't know what to say, so she sat beside her and comforted her until she stopped crying, and then she left.

When she returned to the palace, she saw Mo Yufeng sitting on the stone bench in the garden she passed by, holding a fan in his hand. When he saw Ma Qingyi, he stretched out his finger and beckoned her to come over.

Ma Qingyi walked over and looked at him. Suddenly, Mo Yufeng hugged her waist and pulled her. Ma Qingyi fell into his arms without warning. Ma Qingyi put her hands on his face and looked at him warily, "What are you doing?"

Mo Yufeng pulled her hand down and said, "Stop it!"

Mo Yufeng looked at her with deep eyes without saying a word. Ma Qingyi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and then said, "You...you say something!...You keep staring at me..."

Mo Yufeng leaned his head on her shoulder and buried his face in her shoulder, "Let me lean on it for a while!"

Ma Qingyi didn't say anything and let him lean on her.

Ma Qingyi's shoulders felt a little sore, and suddenly she heard Mo Yufeng's even breathing. Ma Qingyi looked down at him and moved closer to his face. Suddenly, Mo Yufeng opened his eyes and their eyes met. Ma Qingyi quickly raised her head, half of her face flushed. Mo Yufeng looked at her profile and her red ears. Mo Yufeng was like a possessed man, breathing cold air in her ear, his lips touching her ear. Ma Qingyi suddenly trembled, broke free from his arms, stood far away, covered her ears, and looked at him vigilantly.

Mo Yufeng smiled evilly and stood up.

Ma Qingyi took a few steps back. Mo Yufeng smiled and said, "Didn't you seduce me back then? Why are you scared now before we even got to bed?"

Ma Qingyi pouted and looked at him dissatisfiedly, "..."

Mo Yufeng walked up to her and put his arm on her shoulders, "Go back!"

Mo Yufeng dragged her away.

…

The Palace at Night

Bai Hanxiao called Qiu Lang in and asked, "Qiu Lang, did you really throw away the clothes I asked you to throw away?"

Qiu Lang thought for a moment, "Is it that blue dress that's a bit revealing?"

Bai Hanxiao nodded.

"I did throw away that dress!... But then I met Princess Dai Lianrong of Dai Kingdom... She said she would help me throw it away, so I gave it to her!... Oh my God, could it be that she did something bad with that dress?" Qiu Lang said in surprise.

Bai Hanxiao's cold eyes turned red. Suddenly, a bright light burst into her eyes. The light was so bright that she could hardly open her eyes. "Miss, look, it's so beautiful!"

Qiu Lang shouted at the side. Bai Hanxiao looked up and opened his eyes to look at the sky not far away. Fireworks bloomed in the air, lighting up the entire night sky. The fireworks were huge, as if they were set off in the palace. Bai Hanxiao stood up and approached and asked, "Are these fireworks set off in the palace?"

"Then let me go and take a look!" Qiu Lang said and left.

Bai Hanxiao waited for a long time, watching the fireworks suddenly appear and disappear, over and over again. Then, hurried footsteps came. Bai Hanxiao thought it was Qiu Lang. She turned around and saw Mo Yecheng standing at the door. Bai Hanxiao lowered her head, thinking of what happened in the morning. She didn't want to pay attention to him and turned to leave. Mo Yecheng strode forward, grabbed Bai Hanxiao's arm, and pushed her against the door, "Hanxiao!"

"...Let go!" Bai Hanxiao said with a frown.

Mo Yecheng relaxed, but didn't let her go. He said, "Hanxiao, this fireworks display is for you!... I'm sorry for what happened today! I was too impulsive!"

Bai Hanxiao looked at his eyes as deep as ink springs and was momentarily distracted. Mo Yecheng called her "Hanxiao" and Bai Hanxiao came back to her senses. She said coldly, "How dare I ask the emperor to apologize in person? If I am wrong, it is my fault. I shouldn't let the emperor hear what I said, let alone let the emperor... well..."

Mo Yecheng kissed her and blocked her mouth, "Don't talk like that, okay?"
