"If I don't forgive you, what are you going to do?" Song Xi raised an eyebrow at Ao Qian.
Aoqian lowered his head, his voice weak, "Then I'll keep giving in until you forgive me, I'll do anything you ask..."
"Then what if I let you succeed as the Demon Lord?" Song Xiwei said casually.
Ao Qian looked up at her. "You really think so?"
Song Xiwei: "I suggested you use your good looks to get you to succeed as Demon Lord as soon as possible, which led to all these things. If you succeed as Demon Lord, your other personal relationships are your private matters. But my most important task now is to assist you. I can't interfere with other things."
Aoqian watched her silently without saying a word.
Song Xiwei was getting increasingly annoyed by Ao Qian's gaze.
"If you don't want to, then so be it. Anyway, you can't bear to see your beloved suffer, and you're willing to plunge the entire demon race into crisis for her sake. That's your own choice. I've made myself perfectly clear. It's up to you to decide."
Song Xiwei walked around Ao Qian, and just as she took a step, Ao Qian grabbed her arm, saying, "I'll listen to you."
Song Xiwei: "??"
“I will obey you. If you want me to succeed as Demon Lord, I will.” Ao Qian said earnestly to Song Xiwei, “I will listen to you. Are you willing to forgive me now?”
"What about your sweetheart? Aren't you afraid of hurting her feelings?" Aoqian agreed just like that, but Song Xiwei felt awkward.
Although now is the most opportune time for Aoqian to succeed as the Demon Lord, she doesn't actually want him to do anything he'll regret. Besides, Aoqian is clearly more concerned about his beloved.
Aoqian looked at Song Xiwei with a pitiful expression. What else could he do? If he didn't appease Song Xiwei first, what future would he have?
"Let's put personal feelings aside for now. I've decided to listen to you; the bigger picture is what matters." As long as you're by my side, we can discuss the rest later.
"What if Young Master regrets it later?" Song Xiwei still hoped that Aoqian would think it through.
"You won't regret it, don't worry." Ao Qian met Song Xiwei's somewhat awkward gaze and sighed. "The succession ceremony for the Demon Lord is set for three days from now. What do you think?"
I didn't expect Aoqian to suddenly become so serious.
Song Xiwei didn't want to think about those messy things anymore.
“You can decide on your succession ceremony,” Song Xiwei said.
"It is my succession ceremony, but it is also the day you become my Demon Clan's Venerable Envoy, a day that belongs to us." Aoqian earnestly told Song Xiwei his plans.
Originally, the plan was to wait for the right time to officially appoint Song Xiwei as the Emperor's consort, but now that he has been forced to take office ahead of schedule, the position of Emperor's consort is definitely not feasible. So let's start with the position of Respectful Envoy.
Give her enough power to accept the support of the demon people...
"What is the title of the envoy?" Song Xiwei thought that she would be content to be a follower by Aoqian's side.
She didn't actually care that much about these empty titles.
Ke Aoqian just said it was their special day, making it seem very important, so she had no choice but to take it seriously.
“If it’s a nominal title, then I’m second only to the elders and protectors,” Ao Qian added hastily, fearing that Song Xiwei might think he wasn’t paying enough attention to him. “But, in terms of real power, I’ll listen to whatever you say. The elders and protectors have to listen to me, but I’ll listen to you.”
Aoqian's tone was very serious, as if afraid she wouldn't believe him, "I can sign a contract with you. If you don't trust me, if you feel you can't trust me, then we..."
"Alright, you're about to become the Demon Lord, so show your authority. I'm just your subordinate, how could I possibly be above you? Your Excellency is actually quite good, just what I wanted. Don't have any other thoughts. As long as everything goes smoothly in three days!"
