At this time, the sun outside gradually dimmed, and the golden and dazzling palace was shrouded in the afterglow, as if it was covered with a layer of light golden gauze.
Tang Yu's bedroom faces south and north, and through the windows exquisitely carved with dragon and phoenix patterns, he can have a panoramic view of the scene outside.
Ironically, Huo Cenji personally designed the layout of this place, specifically to take care of Tang Yu's health. Back then, he firmly believed that with careful care, even a rotten, dead tree could bloom.
He really hoped that Tang Yu would get better.
But after many days, when he returned here again, Huo Cenji had no idea what he was doing.
Haha… He had lived in vain, being played around by a junior.
But what can we do?
He really fell into Tang Yu's hands.
Huo Cenji also didn't understand why Tang Yu was doing all this.
Could it be that Tang Yu wanted to tell himself that he was unwilling to touch those people, not that he couldn't?
Then what?
Then he would show mercy and let Tang Yu continue to sit firmly in that seat?
Haha, does Tang Yu still think that he is as easy to fool as before?
Huo Cenji's long eyelashes trembled slightly, then he slowly opened his eyes and pulled his hand back with a very firm attitude.
He stood up from the bed indifferently, and after distancing himself from Tang Yu, the ambiguous and tender moment just now seemed to disappear in an instant.
Huo Cenji turned his back and expressed his attitude again with cold words:
"Tang Yu, I don't care about these at all."
"Do you really think I would be moved by this?"
"Or, are you so eager to prove yourself now because you want to get something from me?"
A mocking sneer emanated from Huo Cenji's throat, and then he slowly and methodically began to analyze Tang Yu's intentions bit by bit:
"Do you want me to keep you in that position? Or do you want me to spare your life? Or—"
"Your Majesty, do you wish to renew your relationship with me?"
When saying the last sentence, Huo Cenji found it funny.
Because he knew that was the most unlikely answer.
Tang Yu was still maintaining the same posture at this moment. The annoying desire made him feel neither up nor down, but he still had to pretend to be surprised when Huo Cenji spoke in a cold voice.
"What if I just want to rekindle my past relationship with the Regent?" Tang Yu's voice was a little hoarse. He clutched the quilt with both hands and deliberately continued to speak along with Huo Cenji's words.
In fact, he now wanted Huo Cenji to come over and touch him.
But of course he couldn't say this. If he said it, Huo Cenji might really destroy him.
Tang Yu still takes good care of his body.
"What did you say--"
Huo Cenji, who was standing with his hands behind his back, suddenly turned his head to look at Tang Yu after hearing this, and the suspicion in his eyes was obvious.
How could it be possible...
He probably heard it wrong.
How could Tang Yu possibly...say that?
Facing Huo Cenji's gaze, Tang Yu did not dodge or evade, and let Huo Cenji see clearly.
Actually, it’s not wrong to say so. Isn’t he just looking forward to renewing his past relationship with Huo Cenji?
It’s just a pity that Huo Cenji is indeed a smart man, especially now he seems to be even smarter.
Therefore, the previous tricks not only did not work on Huo Cenji, but even made Huo Cenji question his intentions even more.
At this point, he had no choice but to act unconventionally.
Tang Yu sighed secretly, put his hand on his chest and coughed softly a few times, then answered Huo Cenji's words in a low voice:
"I really want to rekindle my relationship with the Regent."
Although it did sound a bit persistent, Tang Yu still gritted his teeth and said it.
If Huo Cenji doesn't respond to soft or hard tactics, then try something softer.
Huo Cenji's eyes were filled with a bit of doubt and uncertainty. When he heard Tang Yu repeat what he said, he finally couldn't hold back his anger anymore. He quickly walked up to Tang Yu, tugged at his clothes, and said in a cold tone:
"Does your Majesty know what you are saying?"
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten who deliberately sent me to the border? Who cut off my army's food supplies, forcing me into a desperate situation? And who sent the royal shadow to assassinate me? Your Majesty, have you forgotten everything? Hmm?"
"Your Majesty, are you playing a fool by saying we're going to rekindle our past relationship?"
Huo Cenji's voice suddenly became louder when he said the last sentence, as if he had vented all the pent-up anger in his heart.
Tang Yu's face turned red from being pulled, but he couldn't speak, so he could only look at Huo Cenji.
Those eyes that were red and tearful due to stimulation met Huo Cenji's angry eyes, and finally Huo Cenji regained his sanity.
He suddenly let go of Tang Yu's clothes. He was no longer angry, but felt a sense of relief instead.
Before Tang Yu could catch his breath, a slender hand pinched his chin, forcing him to raise his head.
Huo Cenji raised a strange smile, pointed at the mask on his face with his other hand, and asked:
"Your Majesty, do you know why I wear a mask?"
“…why…”
With his chin pinched, Tang Yu naturally couldn't speak as fluently as before, but he could still make a sound.
So when he heard Huo Cenji asking him, he naturally answered.
Tang Yu's clueless look made Huo Cenji feel a little inexplicable hatred in his heart. He didn't know how Tang Yu managed to act as if nothing had happened.
Then he naturally didn't mind telling Tang Yu in person.
So Huo Cenji slowly approached Tang Yu, and stopped when their faces were about to touch, and said to Tang Yu word by word:
