"You, kiss me." I looked at You standing on the edge of the clouds with the Milky Way behind her. No matter how bright the stars in the Milky Way were, they couldn't compare to You's gaze. I ran up to her and gave her a bear hug, then snuggled up to her and kissed her.
"Xin'er, wake up, Xin'er." In my drowsy state, I felt like someone was calling me, it sounded like You's voice.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw You in front of me. Huh, didn't we just kiss? Why are you here again? Oh well, let's kiss again. I threw myself into You's arms. The familiar scent, so sweet.
"Alright, alright, I brought you something good, I promise you'll like it." You patted me gently, her tone as soft as if she were coaxing a baby.
I slowly came to my senses while nestled in You's arms, as if I had just been dreaming.
"What is that?" I asked, getting up, but my nose caught a strong smell of roasted sweet potato.
"Here you go. I specially bought this on my way to the mortal realm and carried it with me the whole way. It still has your husband's warmth on it." I stared blankly at the roasted sweet potato that You took out from her bosom. This, this is the roasted sweet potato from the stall near the university when the female lead was in the mortal realm.
"Do you like it?" You smiled and handed it to me.
"Mmm." I nodded emphatically, picked it up and ate it. The sweet potato flavor was strong and delicious, just as good as the sweet potatoes sold by the old man in front of my house.
"You, you eat too." I broke off half of my food and gave it to You. "Let's eat together."
"Okay." You took it and slowly savored it.
Even when You eats roasted sweet potatoes, she looks so ethereal, unlike me, who would definitely be sloppy and wolfing them down.
Fortunately, the female lead in the past wasn't the elegant and noble type, otherwise I was afraid that You would have noticed something was wrong.
I snuggled up to You again and nestled in her arms, refusing to get up. I really love snuggling in You's arms; she smells so nice.
You stroked my hair, rested her chin on my head, and said expectantly, "Xin'er, these past two days have felt like a dream. Xin'er, do you feel a little bit of me in your heart now?"
"Not just a little bit, but all of it."
After hearing my answer, I could hear You's heart pounding wildly, and her whole body trembling uncontrollably. After a long while, You finally said, "Even if I were to die now, I would have no regrets."
"You can't say that. How can you die? I want you to stay with me forever." Hearing You say "die," I covered You's mouth with my hand to stop him from saying it.
"good."
You held me like that the whole time. It was quiet all around. I could only hear You's heartbeat and breathing, and the scent of You all around me.
"Xin'er, let's go to the Peach Banquet together tomorrow."
"Okay!" I was overjoyed to hear there was something delicious to eat and readily agreed.
"Then get some rest early tonight, otherwise you little lazybones won't be able to get up tomorrow," You said, playfully flicking my nose.
"Hmph, I won't." I replied with dissatisfaction, but I still lay back down on the bed, hugged You, and fell asleep again in no time.
The next morning, various palace servants dressed me and You in formal attire.
The Peach Banquet is a relatively formal banquet, and basically all the high-ranking and powerful immortals in the celestial realm will attend.
As the palace maids were tidying up my makeup, Liu Yun arrived. Today, Liu Yun was wearing the magnificent attire reserved for the emperor and empress. Her already charming face was made even more stunning by the makeup.
Although Liu Yun was confined to her quarters, the Emperor and Empress were still required to be present at such an important occasion as the Peach Banquet.
The thought of being with Liu Yun soon, especially since she was the Empress, made me very unhappy. Although I am the Lord of Heaven and nominally the ruler of the Three Realms, I am still very unhappy. I also want to be the Empress of You, and I don't want to be some kind of Emperor Xin at all.
"Why are you unhappy?" You noticed the change in my mood and came over to tease me.
"It's alright." The palace maids had finished dressing me up, and I stood up and took You's hand.
"My Xin'er, you look so beautiful today." You pulled me up, her beautiful eyes fixed on me, and whispered in my ear.
I blushed immediately.
