Yun Qi thought that Li Muge was worried about him, but unexpectedly, after Li Muge caught the wooden box, she said that it was good that the broken wooden box was not broken.
"Li Muge. Can't you see me, a living, breathing person? Why are you so concerned about this broken wooden box?" Yun Qi turned to leave in anger, his face so dark it could boil oil, but then his forehead bumped into the cabinet again.
"Hiss." Yun Qi covered his forehead, his brows furrowed in pain, but he was also so angry that he flung his sleeves away, not wanting Li Muge to see him make a fool of himself.
"Haha." Li Muge smiled and cast a spell to immobilize Yun Qi.
"What are you doing, Li Muge? What do you want? Don't think that just because you're the Empress now I'm afraid of you." Yun Qi gritted her teeth, her face ashen, her heart filled with resentment at being looked down upon by Li Muge.
Li Muge remained silent, slowly opening the wooden box. Inside were two ordinary red ropes. Li Muge picked up the wooden plaque and lazily began to read the annotations on it.
These two seemingly simple red strings are a pair. As long as two people who truly love each other wear them on their wrists, as long as their love remains undiminished.
These two ordinary red strings will guide the two people wearing them to find each other, no matter how far apart they are.
Li Muge put the wooden plaque back into the wooden box, first picked up a red string and put it on her wrist, then picked up another red string and put it on Yun Qi's hand.
"What is this?" Yun Qi had no idea what kind of rope Li Muge had put on him, or if it was something else trying to imprison him.
Li Muge raised the corners of her lips: "Wearing this will prove that you are mine, Li Muge's person. No matter how much time passes, Yun Qi, you will never be able to get rid of me."
Yun Qi instinctively intended to retort, but unexpectedly, Li Muge stood on tiptoe and hugged Yun Qi. Yun Qi's body instantly stiffened. He had no way to refuse Li Muge's closeness and dependence on him.
"Demon Lord, promise me, no matter what happens in the future, never forget me." Li Muge closed her eyes, and a tear fell.
Yun Qi raised his hand and gently patted Li Muge's back: "What's wrong? Li Muge, why are you so fragile? Of course, I could not have forgotten you. Who else could be so angry with me and cause me to be in such a sorry state?"
Li Muge was somewhat reluctant to part with it.
This was such a great opportunity to be so close to Yun Qi, but reality often doesn't go according to one's wishes. She clenched her fists tightly and pushed Yun Qi away.
"Good to know." Li Muge said and walked quickly forward, but when she saw that Yun Qi had not followed, she deliberately slowed down.
As Yun Qi lowered her head, a silent smile crept onto her lips.
Niu Zhan and A Man's wedding was simple yet heartwarming.
After the wedding ceremony with Aman, Niu Zhan specially carried a large jar of wine and placed it on the table where Li Muge was sitting. Yun Qi, who was sitting next to Li Muge, was also startled.
Niu Zhan was clearly a little drunk. He looked up and hiccuped, "Guardian... no, Your Majesty, my friend Demon Lord, since I was able to meet, get to know, and eventually marry A-Man, this first cup of wine must be offered to the person I am most grateful to."
"It's nothing, don't be so polite." Li Muge assumed that Niu Zhan, being such a big guy, would definitely want to show her respect, so she immediately straightened herself up and stood up.
Niu Zhan's cheeks were flushed, and his voice was rough. The wine jar that others struggled to lift was effortless in his hands. He poured the wine, held the bowl, and said, "I am most grateful to the Demon Lord. If you hadn't introduced A-Man to me, we wouldn't have hit it off and stood together."
Li Muge: "…………"
How could Niu Zhan go back like this? She is his master, yet he didn't show her respect first, but instead went to show respect to Yun Qi.
Li Muge awkwardly withdrew his hand.
The misunderstanding was so embarrassing.
Yun Qi stood next to Li Muge, seemingly oblivious to Li Muge's words, but his expression remained unchanged.
"I'm sorry, my current physical condition is not suitable for drinking alcohol."
Niu Zhan wasn't angry about being rejected, and went to drink with Li Muge. Everyone else thought Yun Qi was just putting on airs.
Only Li Muge knew that Yun Qi probably took her lie seriously and was only not drinking because of the baby in her womb.
The thought made Li Muge feel a little embarrassed. If Yun Qi found out that she had been deceived, would he skin her alive?
However, Li Muge soon found himself unable to keep up with the amount of alcohol he was drinking.
This clueless Niu Zhan is so honest when he's drinking and toasting; does he even realize he's the groom today?
Taking advantage of Li Muge's drunkenness, Yun Qi ran out to get some fresh air.
He closed his eyes and watched the cool evening breeze. Although he couldn't see, he was happy just to be by Li Muge's side.
"Demon Lord, you're quite the show-off. I heard you're pregnant with His Majesty's child. You certainly bring honor to us men." Cang Lan walked up to Yun Qi, deliberately mocking him.
Yun Qi sneered, stroking her belly: "So what? Li Muge likes me, so naturally he will like the child in my belly. If it were someone else, even if they could find a way to deliberately have a child, Li Muge probably wouldn't even glance at them."
“You…” The pale face turned white and then green: “Yun Qi, don’t think you can have the last laugh. His Majesty will kill you sooner or later.”
"Kill me." Yun Qi smiled gently, his fingers forming a hand seal. Cang Lan instantly felt a surge of powerful magic rushing towards him, and he used his own spiritual power to resist it.
However, she was still no match for Yun Qi's spiritual power and was forced to kneel down before him.
Cang Lan spat out a mouthful of blood: "Demon Lord, so your magic power wasn't sealed after all. Aren't you afraid I'll tell Mu Ge? She definitely won't let you off the hook."
Yun Qi sneered, "Cang Lan, it's a waste that you're the patriarch of the Spirit Clan. If you can sense something, do you really think Mu Ge wouldn't be able to?"
"Admit it, Mu Ge loves the real me."
"And you, Canglan, lost the right to love Muge the moment you betrayed her."
"I know that killing you would be as easy as crushing an ant, but why have I kept you alive until now? It's because I want to keep you alive so that I can see how I fall in love with Mu Ge and how deeply Mu Ge loves me."
Yun Qi's voice was very calm. If someone didn't know the situation, they might even think he was trying to comfort Cang Lan. But only Cang Lan knew that every word Yun Qi spoke felt like the sharpest knife piercing his heart.
He wanted to refute Yun Qi's words, but in his heart, he admitted that what Yun Qi said was true.
Mu Ge has no tolerance for injustice.
Dust-free.
Shi Beixuan was like that.
And so it was with him.
Cang Lan clutched her chest, gazing at the bright, clear moon in the sky.
It was too much of a wish for him.
He actually wanted to possess a moon that could never belong to him.
The moon hangs high in the sky.
How could it possibly fall into his heart?
