Chapter 270 - Extra Chapter - Shen Yuepo, You Don't Love Me Anymore
The next morning, the snow cleared in the capital, and sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the warm interior.
Feng Jin and Shen Yuepo had just finished packing up and were preparing to return to Xujing Temple.
After all, after the wedding, it is necessary to return to the sect to pay a formal visit, so that the patriarch and master of the temple can see the son-in-law in heaven.
The phone rang abruptly; it was Lin Yanxin.
Shen Yuepo answered the call, but before she could speak, Lin Yanxin's excited voice came from the other end: "Little Yue! Guess who I saw at the gates of hell?!"
Shen Yuepo and Feng Jin, who was listening closely, exchanged a glance. She asked, "Who?"
"The entire Shen family of four! They're all dead!" Lin Yanxin clicked her tongue in disbelief. "It looked like an accident; they drifted in, dazed and confused, following the soul-guiding lamp. And guess what?"
He deliberately kept everyone in suspense, then continued, "Didn't that Horse-Face brat enlarge your wedding photo and hang it all over the place, inside and outside the Gates of Hell, saying he was celebrating with the ghosts?"
"Good heavens! The moment these four came in, they were right in front of that huge photograph! The old couple from the Shen family were stunned on the spot, then started crying and making a scene, insisting on seeing you..."
Lin Yanxin's tone was full of disdain: "How many despicable things did Shen Yurou do while she was alive, and how could she ignore you? Now that she's dead, she wants to claim kinship? So, do you want to see them?"
Shen Yuepo's expression remained calm, but his eyes turned cold for a moment.
"I won't see them." Shen Yuepo's voice was clear and cold, without the slightest hesitation. "There's nothing more to say to them. Debts in life must be repaid in death. Since they've come to the Netherworld, the law will be just."
"I had no connection with the Shen family during my lifetime, and I will have no connection with them after death. Let them honestly go to the King of Hell to plead their case and repent, and be tried according to the law. Let them go to whichever level they are supposed to go to, and let them wait in line for as long as they are supposed to."
Lin Yanxin readily agreed on the other end of the phone: "Alright! I knew you wouldn't soften your heart! This family was disgusting enough when they were alive, and now they want to climb the social ladder after they're dead? Dream on!"
"I'll have Horse-Face take a few ghost messengers and escort them to their proper place to line up! These poor relatives dare to try and curry favor with the Emperor and Empress? They've gone too far!"
Shen Yuepo's lips curled up slightly at his amusement, and she hung up the phone.
One year later, in the Fengdu Imperial Palace.
The imperial palace, usually shrouded in solemn tranquility, was today brightly decorated, filled with joy and laughter.
The reason is simple: the twins born to the Emperor and Empress are exactly three months old today.
These two children were born as celestial beings. The boy resembled his father, with deep features in his eyebrows and eyes, black hair, and dark gold pupils.
The girl resembled her mother, with translucent skin and a pair of clear, bright eyes.
They were naturally surrounded by the spiritual energy of the underworld and the clear moonlight, which attracted the gentle attention of the laws of the underworld.
The reason for all the decorations today is to take a family photo!
However, at this moment, the vast temple was unusually quiet.
Only Shen Yuepo and Feng Jin were inside the hall.
Shen Yuepo had changed into the casual clothes she had specially prepared for the photoshoot. The plain-colored clothes made her look even more elegant and refined.
She tidied her hair, only to find that Feng Jin was not beside her as usual, but was still sitting in his chair.
She frowned slightly, approached him with a puzzled look, stopped in front of him, and asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Feng Jin did not answer immediately.
He simply watched her quietly, his dark golden eyes swirling with emotions that were somewhat unfamiliar to Shen Yuepo.
He suddenly reached out and pulled Shen Yuepo onto his lap, holding her tightly in his arms. His chin rested on the top of her head, his voice muffled, accusing:
"Shen Yuepo, you don't love me anymore."
“…”
Shen Yuepo was completely stunned by his sudden remark.
Immediately, memories of the past year flooded back.
Thinking back carefully, it seems... it's been a long time since I've quietly snuggled up to him like before.
It felt like my heart had been gently pricked, a subtle, tender ache spreading through me.
After becoming pregnant, she did indeed... neglect him a lot.
Shen Yuepo raised her hand and hugged his lean waist, her fingertips lightly tapping his back, her voice softening: "Feng Jin, I didn't..."
"Shen Yuepo, I regret it." Feng Jin interrupted her, tightening his grip on her as if trying to meld her into his very bones. His voice was even lower. "If only I had known that having a child would take away all your attention..."
He paused, then said, "I would rather remain the Emperor of Fengdu for another ten thousand years, or even a hundred thousand years."
Shen Yuepo: "..."
She finally couldn't help herself and chuckled softly against his chest, her shoulders trembling slightly.
"Now that the baby is born, what do you suggest we do?" She looked up at him, her eyes filled with laughter.
