Bei Menlin and his men waited for a long time, but did not see He Feng.
His face grew increasingly grim until one of his men came to report that Miss He Feng was in the west.
Bei Menlin led his men over.
I was walking too fast and accidentally bumped into someone.
They were so close that they could smell each other's scent.
Bei Menlin smelled a familiar fragrance, a familiar scent that had been imprinted deep in his soul for millennia.
He turned his head to the side, and the other person also looked up.
In the dim light, this handsome and beautiful face, which should have exuded a noble air that commanded respect, made Bei Menlin want to lower his head and kiss him.
The emperor was hit without cause, and his trusted aides rushed forward to block the impact.
Because the other party was the regent, his confidants dared not make any big moves, and only gently pulled Yimu aside.
Bei Menlin's gaze fell on the unassuming hands of his trusted aide, and his expression turned icy.
For a fleeting moment, Yi Mu saw a look of confusion in Bei Menlin's eyes.
He was moved, which means there is hope for Yimu.
Bei Menlin snapped out of his daze and frowned when he saw Yi Mu dressed as an ordinary young nobleman.
"Your Majesty, what brings you here? The court..."
Yi Mu raised the lantern in his hand, and his eyebrows and eyes no longer showed the solemnity of the young emperor, but were exactly like a handsome young master from a noble family.
"The affairs at home are being handled by trustworthy people. But Brother Lin, where are you rushing off to?"
Just as Bei Menlin was about to speak, his subordinates brought He Feng over.
Having experienced such a terrifying moment, He Feng was terrified. Upon seeing Bei Menlin, she ran towards him, whimpering.
Unlike usual, Bei Menlin didn't let her act coquettishly. He grabbed He Feng's body and pushed her away, his face more serious than ever before.
"I told you to stay in the building and I'd spend time with you as soon as I finished my work, but you wouldn't listen. Do you know how dangerous it is to run out alone?"
When Bei Menlin gets angry, he looks quite fierce.
He Feng was afraid of him like this, so she casually made up a lie.
"There's no danger at all, I'm perfectly fine."
The maid assigned to follow behind her stepped forward and subtly undermined her.
"Miss He Feng was lucky to meet our master in a brothel; otherwise, she might have been taken advantage of by that lecherous man."
Throughout the journey, He Feng had been bossing her around quite a bit, and the maid had been enduring it all, but now she could finally retaliate.
Since she wasn't He Feng's person, she probably wouldn't dare to do anything to the people around the Emperor.
He Feng had just lied when she was exposed.
Losing face is a small matter, but the fact that an unmarried woman went to a brothel is enough to infuriate Beimen Lin.
He Feng felt the hand holding her arm lighten, and Bei Menlin bowed to Yi Mu with an ugly expression.
"On behalf of He Feng, I would like to express my gratitude to Your Majesty for saving me. I still have matters to attend to, so I will return now."
Yi Mu, carrying a dazzling revolving lantern, sighed with disappointment upon hearing this.
"I thought meeting Brother Lin here would make things more lively, but since you have something to do, I'll just wander around by myself."
After he finished speaking, even his raised eyebrows fell, and he looked very disappointed.
For some reason, Bei Menlin didn't want to see that expression on his face.
He watched as Yi Mu turned and left, gave his subordinates a signal, and then looked at He Feng with an icy expression.
"You are not allowed to leave the restaurant without my order. If you do it again, I will no longer care about you."
He Feng's lips moved, but she didn't dare to say anything.
This man had such a strong presence that it took her a hundred times more effort than others to control him.
She didn't dare to disobey him at all.
