Chapter 648: This Is Worse Than Killing Her

Translator: Henyee Translations ‘ Editor: Henyee Translations

Murong Qiao didn’t know what the Queen said to her daughter.

She looked at the luxurious decorations around her, casually took out her computer, turned it on, and sat on the sofa at the side.

Since she was already here, she would go with the flow.

Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen had to accept the fact that they had changed their residence because of Sofia. Then, Huo Yichen’s plan changed.

“Where do you want to go tomorrow?” Huo Yichen appeared behind Murong Qiao.

He casually wrapped his arms around Murong Qiao’s waist and gently lifted her onto his lap. He looked up and met her gaze, asking for her answer.

Murong Qiao turned on the computer. “How is this place?”

On the computer screen that he turned around, there was an amplified publicity picture of the amus.e.m.e.nt park. Just the scene on it looked like a dream, and it could attract the attention of many girls.

Huo Yichen pulled her into his arms and rested his chin on Murong Qiao’s shoulder. Then, he hummed softly in response.

As they got closer, Murong Qiao felt the other party’s hot breath on her neck, making her reach out to push Huo Yichen away.

“Don’t get so close.” She chuckled.

Huo Yichen didn’t listen. In fact, he was very rebellious and deliberately blew at Murong Qiao’s earlobe.

Murong Qiao turned around angrily to call him. “Huo Yichen—”

Yes,” he replied, but his hand followed his thoughts very well and landed on the other party’s fair and beautiful face. He gently rubbed his fingers against her soft and beautiful lips.

The strength of his fingers was very light, but Murong Qiao could sense the owner’s desire and the wish to crush the petals and take them for himself.

The atmosphere had changed at some point, as if an invisible hand was pushing the two of them. Huo Yichen leaned over and changed the taste of the kiss.

In the dark night, the two figures reflected by the indoor lights intertwined on the gauze curtain of the window. They were seen by a hidden observer and intertwined into a boundless storm in her heart.

At the height of the third floor opposite Huo Yichen’s room, Sofia stood expressionlessly in front of the window and looked at the two people in the room, hugging each other warmly.

… Her silence was a little abnormal, and her sister, Mira, who was sitting in the room, sensed that something was wrong.

So Mira called out uncertainly, “Sofia?”

She originally wanted to see if her Little Sister was doing better today, but seeing that Sofia had not spoken much today, she was worried and decided to stay over tonight.

“Why are you standing by the window for so long?” Mira walked over.

Without changing her expression, Sofia reached out and pulled up a thick layer of curtain in front of the window, preventing Mira from seeing the outside.

If Mila saw Huo Yichen’s room, she would understand that Sofia had not given up at all. Even when she asked someone to prepare the room at the beginning, she had other thoughts.

However, not only did her thoughts not succeed, but she also had to watch the two of them being intimate during the time the other party was a guest.

In a sense, this was even worse than killing her.

Sofia shook her head casually. “I just feel a little cold.”

She walked away from the window and pulled Mira away from that position, casually going to the house inside to sit down.

As soon as Mila heard her Little Sister say that it was cold, she immediately went to get someone to bring over a small blanket.

You’ve been in poor health since you were young. Put this on to prevent you from catching a cold.” As Mira spoke with concern, she turned up the temperature of the air conditioner in the room.

Sofia’s lips twitched into a smile. “Big Sister.”

“Yes?” Mira turned at her call and looked at Sofia.

Sofia bit her lip. “I—want to go out.”

“Sofia…” Mira frowned when she heard this. “Didn’t we talk about this?”

“Besides, Mother doesn’t agree with it. You just encountered that when you went out two days ago.”

Not to mention anything else, Mira valued her Little Sister’s health and safety as much as Queen Elvi.

Moreover, now that Sofia said this, Mila subconsciously connected this matter to Huo Yichen.

She took a deep breath and couldn’t help but sigh at how her Little Sister had taken a fancy to such a situation.

“I promise I won’t do anything to them, Big Sister.”

Sofia said, “When I went to look for Father to invite them as guests, you were also present.”

“But if I don’t do anything after inviting them, it will be too disrespectful to the royal family’s etiquette.”

She subtly changed her reasoning and looked at Mira with that pitiful gaze again.

If not for the fact that Queen Elvi had instructed Celestia to keep an eye on her, she wouldn’t have to beg her sister like this.

Celestia was loyal to Elvi, so she had always listened to her orders.

Mila originally wanted to say that she wouldn’t help her Little Sister anymore. After all, she had already gone too far last time. However, when she saw that Sofia had only asked to go out and said it so pitifully, Mila’s heart softened.

“But—” Mira still tried to struggle.

Seeing that there was really a chance, Sofia hurriedly struck while the iron was hot. “Big Sister, didn’t the doctor also suggest that I go out more to change my mood?”

“Just help me divert Celestia’s attention.”

“Big Sister…”

In the end, Mira’s heart softened and she agreed to Sofia’s request.

The pa.s.sage of time in the night was almost imperceptible. It was probably the alternation of darkness and light when one closed their eyes and fell asleep, welcoming a new morning.

The palace seemed to have its own system. At dawn, someone had already begun to work silently.

Standing by the window, Murong Qiao, who could vaguely smell the fragrance of flowers, took a deep breath and took a sip of the coffee in her hand, dispelling her already dissipating sleepiness.

Her slender figure stood by the balcony and looked at the whiteness of the world. Her long black hair was soft and casually draped over her shoulders. In the blurry side profile that was casually covered, her beauty couldn’t help but cause one’s heart to race.

As soon as Huo Yichen came out of the bedroom, he saw such a scene.

“You’re up so early?” He hugged her from behind and asked casually. Murong Qiao looked up and exchanged a good morning kiss with Huo Yichen.

“We just changed places. Perhaps I couldn’t sleep well because of that.” When one arrived at an unfamiliar place, one would always have insomnia. Murong Qiao had just adapted to the hotel yesterday. Today, when she arrived at the palace, her sleep time was much shorter.

Shall we go out for breakfast? I don’t like this place very much,” Murong Qiao suggested.

Breakfast here. At the thought that Sophia would suddenly appear, Murong

Qiao didn’t want her mood to be disturbed by her.

She was out on a date, not to fight with others.

It was not easy for her to come out. Murong Qiao naturally hoped to enjoy this trip.

“Of course. There are also many delicious Chinese restaurants here.”

Almost at the mention of this, Huo Yichen had already started to look for the guide he had read and picked out a few restaurants.

Murong Qiao stretched. “Then I’ll freshen up and go out.”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you.” Huo Yichen let go of his arm around Murong Qiao and watched her walk into the washroom..
