What on earth is going on?

Why did it feel different to her? Gong Jue"s pa.s.sion from before seemed strong enough to melt her, but now, it felt like he wanted to swallow her down into his stomach!

She was unlucky, too. She was clearly more skilled than him, but was unable to resist because of the circ.u.mstances? Thinking of this, she bit him fiercely, but the bouncy soft touch shocked her. It also made the rampaging Gong Jue stop suddenly as well and looked stunned at her!

His moist eyes shone brightly, causing Gong Yimo"s heart to jump abruptly!

“You bit me?”

She couldn"t tell what feeling this was, but his words made her back tingle.

“Why not? That"s right! I bit you!” Gong Yimo tried to evade the question. “You made my lips swollen!”

But her words caused Gong Jue"s eyes to suddenly heat up, and his gaze was enough to make her heart jump again!

Coincidentally, the eunuch urged them again. Gong Yimo quickly pushed him and ran out!

Fresh air rushed hard into her lungs, and Gong Yimo felt like she had come back to life!

On the other hand, the palace people were all looking strangely at Gong Yimo. Did the two of them get into an argument? The Princess"s face is red with anger! And doesn"t she look extremely unhappy?

But Gong Jue…remained inside the sedan chair, not showing himself.

Gong Yimo was feeling anxious now. He had no idea what other plans Gong Jue had in mind, so she was standing in front of the sedan chair"s entrance, unmoving.

After a while, the curtains were pulled apart once more, and he stepped out.

Unlike Gong Yimo"s hurried appearance, Gong Jue looked the same as usual. Still properly dressed, and aloof as usual. Only, a hint of a smile emerged in his eyes when he saw Gong Yimo.

“Imperial Sister, you forgot your things.”

The box in Gong Jue"s hand was exactly the things she brought out while looking for the gift. They were extremely important!

Gong Yimo was speechless at her having just tossed her things aside, but even though the box was in Gong Jue"s hands, it was as if her feet had rooted themselves into the ground. She was unwilling to step forward to grab it no matter what.

But Gong Jue understood her feelings very well, and there was no need to make things hard for her. He went forward and lightly put the box into her hands.

Following that, he casually touched the back of Gong Yimo"s hand, and the moment the box touched her palm, Gong Yimo seemed to have a subtle feeling…But the Emperor was still waiting for her so she didn"t have the time to think too deeply about it.

“Let"s go.”

He said in a whisper. Worried that she would feel awkward, he went in front of her.

The palace men led the way. Bit by bit, the magnificent Zhaoyang Palace presented itself completely.

Gong Yimo"s heart calmed down, now replaced with a hint of determination.

There was an uphill battle to be fought next, and she was going to win beautifully!

When the Emperor heard that Gong Yimo had arrived, he put on a solemn face and no longer cared about the Empress Dowager"s tantrums. From the study, he went into the main hall where many ministers were still waiting for him; or rather, waiting for Gong Yimo.

The older she got, the more his mother became senile. Perhaps everything had been going too smoothly these years, that"s why she was growing more and more fearless.

But she wouldn"t even stop to think…Gong Yi Mo, was she someone she could really try to mold?

That child dared to kill someone in front of him at just ten years old, so much less an unruly princess! And his mother still had the nerve to cry. She didn"t have her skills, so going against her was just asking for death!

After arriving at the palace, the Emperor didn"t even care anymore that the Empress Dowager followed after him…

He was currently sitting upright and was a bit eager to know. How has this child grown to now?

“Hear ye—Gong Yimo presents to the Emperor!”

“The King of Qi calls for an audience—”

Two completely different announcements came at once, leaving many people feeling nervous!
