Chapter 205 Confess Everything
The candlelight in the Weiyang Palace flickered all night long.
When Quan Minghe brought Shen Yuling back, it was almost dawn. The faint morning light shone through the thick curtains onto the dragon bed.
Shen Yuling sat quietly on the dragon bed, her body straight, her expression calm but with a hint of determination.
Kwon Myung-hyuk was wearing a black and red dragon robe, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his posture was upright.
He just stood in front of Shen Yuling, emitting a powerful aura, and the sense of oppression surged towards her like a tide.
"Tell me, Feng Moheng is dead, you have achieved your wish, is there anyone else you want to kill? Or... have you completed a certain mission?"
Kwon Myung Hyuk wanted to know everything, all her secrets.
His voice was low and hoarse, mixed with a hint of fatigue and temptation.
Regarding the mission, it was just his guess in his heart, but various signs forced him to think about it in this direction.
Shen Yuling slowly raised her eyes, and her gaze met Quan Minghe's deep gaze.
Her eyes were clear and firm, "Thank you, I have completed all the tasks."
Her voice was soft and she felt relieved. Everything in this world would have nothing to do with her anymore.
Quan Minghe clenched his hands tightly behind his back into fists, his knuckles turning white.
His voice became increasingly hoarse, as if it had been polished by sandpaper: "Since you have completed your mission, then be my empress and I will not care about anything that happened to you before, and I will not pursue it."
His tone seemed tough on the surface, but more than that, it was filled with fear of losing her.
"Quan Minghe, maybe you have guessed it. I am not Shen Yuling, the daughter of Shen Yuan. I am Shen Yuling from another world. After completing the mission, I can return to my own world."
Shen Yuling revealed the secret that had been hidden for a long time.
It was time to confess everything. This might be the last conversation between them, and she didn't want to hide anything anymore.
Quan Minghe pursed his lips and the expression on his face froze instantly.
He just stared at her quietly, with shock, reluctance, and deep confusion in his eyes.
He couldn't believe what he heard, but he knew that she would not lie to him at this time.
"What about me? Are you only using me? Am I just a tool for you to complete your mission?"
Quan Minghe's voice trembled slightly.
"Quan Minghe, don't make yourself sound so innocent. What do you think of me? At first I was a pet to amuse you, then I became a tool for you to reminisce about Bai Yueguang. Now that you can't keep your heart, you want to force me into your world?"
Shen Yuling didn't think she was wrong.
"Why? I am whatever you want me to be."
"Perhaps, in your life, everyone or everything is under your control, and I am the only one who is out of your control, Quan Minghe, have you ever thought that you don't love me, you just want to possess me."
Shen Yuling's eyes were fixed on him.
"Didn't you have a woman you loved so much back then? As time went by, you still forgot her. Don't you think it's ridiculous that you act like you care about me so much now?"
Quan Minghe was speechless by her words. He opened his mouth but didn't know how to refute.
Possessiveness?
Is his feeling towards her really just possessiveness?
He broke so many bottom lines for her, indulged her willfulness time and time again, and even when she was with Feng Moheng, he couldn't bear to punish her. Isn't all this love?
The face of Chen Yangxi appeared in Quan Minghe's mind. She was the woman he once loved deeply.
If Shen Yangxi were still alive, he might not really fall in love with Shen Yuling.
But fate played a trick on him. Nine years after Shen Yangxi left, he met Shen Yuling.
At first, he really didn't take her seriously, but when it comes to feelings, who can tell clearly at the beginning?
He himself had not expected that he would fall so completely and love so deeply in the end.
The dim morning light shines through the carved window lattices of the Weiyang Palace, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
Quan Minghe stood in front of Shen Yuling. He was always cold and majestic, but at this moment he looked a little humble.
"What if... I want you to stay?"
Thinking of her cruelly leaving, his heart felt like it was being grabbed by an invisible hand, and the pain spread throughout his body.
Thinking back to his first encounter with her, his attitude towards her was different.
He once thought his heart was as solid as a rock, but her appearance quietly changed everything.
Heartbeat, heartache, and heartbreak, these emotions that he had almost never experienced since he became emperor, were all brought to him by her.
No matter whether her approach was calculated or there was a hint of sincerity in it, in his heart, she was already irreplaceable.
She made him no longer just a high and lonely emperor, and even made him taste the sweetness and bitterness of being a husband.
Shen Yuling lowered her head slightly, avoiding his gaze, and said softly: "Quan Minghe, the other world is my life, and there I can be my true self."
Quan Minghe's throat seemed to be choked by something, and it was dry and uncomfortable. He spoke with difficulty: "Then have you... liked me?"
As soon as he said it, he regretted it. He knew the answer, but he just didn't give up.
Shen Yuling was slightly stunned, and the moment when Quan Minghe took gentle care of her emerged in her mind.
How could I not like it?
But what if I like it?
She likes many things and people. Is her love for Kwon Myung-hyuk important compared to freedom?
It’s not like she won’t like someone else after leaving him.
Shen Yuling raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes calm and firm: "Quan Minghe, none of this matters."
Quan Minghe's eyes suddenly became obscure and he tried to make a final attempt to keep her: "What's so good about that world? I am the emperor, the most powerful person in the world. I can give you whatever you want."
"These are all given by you. When you don't want to, everything I have will be taken back by you. I have to be a canary to please you, which is not what I want."
Although Shen Yuling's voice was soft, it revealed an unquestionable firmness.
Quan Minghe approached, the pressure on him becoming stronger and stronger: "You mean, my power is my fault?"
Shen Yuling murmured, "We are both right, but we are from two different worlds. You continue to be your emperor, and I will go back and be another Shen Yuling."
Quan Minghe could no longer suppress the anger and fear in his heart, and he pressed down suddenly.
He growled in her ear: "I don't agree! No matter which world you go to, I will find you."
He wanted her to understand his determination, and he also wanted her to fall into the hot emotional vortex with him.
Shen Yuling had originally planned to say goodbye to him. She did not resist Quan Minghe's fierce actions and let him take her to sink.
For a moment, inside the bedroom of Weiyang Palace, the groans and gasps of the two people intertwined.
I don’t know how much time had passed, but Quan Minghe’s movements were still so violent that he was almost out of control.
Shen Yuling couldn't help but frown. In this regard, they were very compatible, but at this moment, she didn't know why she couldn't bear it.
In the past, when Quan Minghe was more ruthless, she could always stick with him to the end, but today...
"Stop, it hurts." She said softly.
Quan Minghe also frowned, with beads of sweat on his forehead.
Seeing Shen Yuling’s pale face, he was shocked.
He moved away from her, his originally stern face full of worry: "What's wrong? Where does it hurt?"
Shen Yuling covered her stomach, frowned, and said in pain: "My stomach hurts."
