Chapter 271: Ten Moves but Rejection

Helian Yue glanced at her, not intending to let her go, and deliberately said, "My beloved concubine, do you think I want to blame you for your reaction?"

Si Linglong blinked her almond-shaped eyes slightly, and said innocently, "I dare not."

[Yes, that's what I thought.]

Helian Yue snorted in his heart, not even bothering to argue with her.

"Since you think it's reasonable, so what if you act impulsively? Or do you think that since it's about the child, I won't interfere even if I know about it?"

Not only Si Linglong, but also Shuhong and Qinglu who were standing by were surprised.

Isn't what the emperor said a bit too direct?

After all, the other party is a concubine.

Si Linglong was a little unsure about Helian Yue's attitude.

[Does this mean... that I should just beat him up next time without any whining? How can I be so embarrassed?! ]

As for the latter sentence.

【To be honest, I do think so. 】

After all, just yesterday, this person had clearly pointed out that he would not let her keep Li Sheng in the palace and asked her to make other arrangements in advance.

On the one hand, she felt that Helian Yue would not care about such a "small matter". Even if Helian Yue was protective of his shortcomings, she was not sure whether little Li Sheng was within the scope of his "shortcomings".

On the other hand, Si Linglong felt that since she had decided to adopt little Li Sheng, she would be her guardian.

The child was bullied, and as a guardian, it was natural for me to step forward. Naturally, I had no intention of looking for Helian Yue to seek justice.

The more Helian listened to her mumbling in her heart, the more he could not help but sigh.

It wasn't a silent sigh from the bottom of my heart, it was a real sigh, a low sigh of helplessness about what to do with her.

Helian Yue looked at her, but his voice was like ripples on the surface of a lake, spreading gently. He said,

"You can rely on me more."

Whether she was bullied or someone around her was wronged, she could go to him to "complain".

But this woman only taught her children to learn to complain to others, but she didn't teach herself.

Even if it wasn't because of any other feelings, just because she was his favorite concubine, he had to give her this little bit of face.

Why doesn't she understand?

If Helian Yue's previous words of obvious approval and protection made Si Linglong feel that this person did not play by the rules, then the last sentence really touched a part of her heart.

The ripples spread to her heart, making her feel inexplicably sad.

Even though he had hinted before that he would allow her to depend on him, this was the first time he had said it clearly.

As if afraid that she wouldn't understand, he told her clearly and directly.

She could depend on him.

To say it is not touching is a lie.

However, facing such preference, she only thought of one word in her heart——

Ten moves but still refused.

【Your favorite concubine was very touched, but then rejected you. 】

After all, she had truly relied on him, but was slapped in the face.

Rather than relying on his favoritism every time, she preferred to take the initiative. At least the initiative was always in her own hands.

Si Linglong suppressed the ripples in her heart and then pretended to show a touched and obedient expression to Helian Yue.

"I know it."

Helian Yue: ...

No, you don't know anything at all.

Helian Yue couldn't help but get angry in his heart.

Even after he said so much, this woman is still pretending!

If you have the ability, you should try being a good boy!

Si Linglong didn't know what was wrong with her reaction. She just looked at Helian Yue in front of her, her face inexplicably gloomy again, as if she didn't agree with his words just now, but threw his words to the ground and stepped on them to death.

Si Linglong was so depressed and felt that she really couldn't stand this person's mood swings.

Helian Yue's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand to the side with a cold face, "Everyone, leave."

Fu Tai on the side was the smartest one. He immediately waved to Shu Hong and Qing Lu beside him to take the little girl Li Sheng with them.

Si Linglong watched intently as she and Helian Yue were the only ones left in the room in the blink of an eye. She became increasingly unsure of this master's temper.

"Your Majesty?"

[Suddenly withdrawing everyone seems like they are about to do something bad. 】

Si Linglong's guess turned out to be correct.

Just as Fu Tai led his men out and the door closed, Si Linglong felt a strong force suddenly grab her neck and pull her forward.

The next second, her lips suddenly softened, and a familiar and long-lost hot breath swept over her...

An inexplicably fierce kiss came up.

Helian Yue only had one thought in his mind——

Can't stand it?

Even if you can't bear it, just bear it with me!
