Ye Zhaobai still didn't respond, and simply left quietly.
…
"You like him that much? Then what am I?" Not long after Ye Zhaobai left, this question suddenly rang out.
Shu Qingmu was still very worried, so he arrived early. When he tried to come in, he sensed the emperor's presence, so he stayed in the shadows and listened to their entire conversation.
Seeing Wan Ge's expression, he felt really uncomfortable. How could she like Ye Zhaobai so much? What was he, Shu Qingmu, then? Was he just a tool? Just a tool for her to save her family, a stepping stone for her to save herself?
Hearing his voice, Wan Ge felt much happier: "Brother Qingmu, you're here. Don't take those words to heart. I said them on purpose, just to make him feel guilty."
"Why? Why make him feel guilty?" Shu Qingmu didn't quite understand Wan Ge's thoughts. Make that dog emperor feel guilty, and then what? And then fall in love with her again?
"I want to make him feel guilty day and night before he succeeds, and ultimately he will be unable to have the one he loves." Wan Ge said with extreme determination, without the slightest hesitation. She showed no mercy when mentioning this matter, and was determined to take revenge on Ye Zhaobai.
"Do you hate him?" Shu Qingmu asked this question again.
Wan Ge shook her head: "I don't hate him. Someone like him doesn't even deserve my hatred. Brother Qingmu, the opposite of love isn't hate, it's indifference or dislike."
Hate is merely unrequited love, a synonym for love itself. Dislike is the real thing; I hate him. His mere presence makes me feel disgusted, and I want to stay far away from him.
But the things he did to me, I felt I had to avenge. So I thought of using this method to let him experience that feeling too.
Imagine the original owner's feelings of loving so humbly, yet still being used by the two of them.
"Then do you love me?" Shu Qingmu asked again.
Wan Ge was truly exasperated with her husband. Why did he keep asking such love-struck questions at a time like this? Shouldn't they be discussing their next steps? How did things turn out like this?
“Of course, I only love you.” Wan Ge answered directly, staring at him.
"Alright, how are your injuries?" Shu Qingmu was still worried about her health; that was also the purpose of his visit.
He just wanted to see how badly Wan Ge was injured and how he could heal him.
Shu Qingmu left very late, leaving behind several bottles of medicine—the kind that couldn't be bought anywhere else. It must have been made using a unique recipe.
"My injury is nothing to worry about. I'll definitely be a beautiful bride for you from now on." Wan Ge waved to him, and Shu Qingmu quietly stepped forward.
Wan Ge kissed him, and Shu Qingmu left home blushing.
Wan Ge loves to tease him like this, and Xiao Su gets extremely nervous when he stands at the door.
Even though he knew perfectly well that his mistress and the Grand Secretary had a secret relationship, he was still extremely nervous when they met again.
Moreover, there was no one guarding the place just now. What if His Majesty came and suddenly broke in?
"Xiao Su, you're back." Wange looked at the person holding the pastries in her hands. Xiao Su is so quick; she finished preparing them in no time.
