Chapter 1297: The Emperor Is Expecting 11
The outreached fingers were trembling.
But not a word could be spoken.
Su Yan, upon hearing this, also went to help.
As a result, she was grabbed by the arm and pulled into the hall.
With a loud bang, the door was shut tight.
Only Su Yan and Situ Xiu remained in the room.
Situ Xiu looked her up and down.
He spoke.
"Where is the Buddha Beads I gave you?"
"It’s in the room, I didn’t bring it."
"What? You look down on it?"
"That thing is too fragile, I’m afraid it will get broken."
She explained seriously.
Situ Xiu, having heard, reached out and touched Su Yan’s neck.
"In the future, if I see you without it, you won’t be able to keep your head on either."
Su Yan was exasperated.
This person always uses her head as a bargaining chip.
This is a threat.
But, what else could she do?
She lowered her head, quietly muttering,
"Yes."
Situ Xiu stepped closer,
"Is your voice so low because you don’t want to?"
Su Yan said nothing, but lifted her head to see if he was sincerely asking or just feigning curiosity.
Situ Xiu smiled innocently,
"Feel free to speak, I’ll listen to your thoughts."
Then, Su Yan obediently said,
"It’s kind of heavy, carrying it in the wallet is cumbersome and a bit bothersome."
The moment she finished speaking, Situ Xiu pinched her chin.
He smiled teasingly,
"It’s the first time I’ve seen someone so honest."
Su Yan didn’t quite understand his words immediately.
He lowered his eyelids, his smile vanished,
"Twelve hours a day, every day you carry it, but if I catch you without it even for a moment, I’ll consider it as failing to protect your master."
After saying this, he saw Su Yan still having the same expression.
He leaned in, whispering by her ear,
"Do you know what the crime of failing to protect your master is?"
Su Yan shook her head,
"I don’t know."
"Confiscation of property, extermination, beheading."
Su Yan
"······"
Is this man obsessed with figuring out how to cut off her head?
Seeing her suddenly withered expression, he couldn’t help but laugh.
His lips curled up, whispering,
"Already unhappy? Wait until you’ve heard everything before being unhappy."
"What?"
"You assaulted a court official. How should that be handled?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yan widened her eyes, denying,
"I didn’t."
"Oh?"
"I really didn’t."
"Then why is Prime Minister Zhao lying on the ground?"
"He fell on his own accord."
"How could that be without reason?"
"He fell accidentally."
"How exactly did he fall accidentally?"
"He grabbed me, I pulled away, and with too much force, he fell to the ground."
"Isn’t that still an assault?"
Su Yan
"······ You’re slandering me."
Situ Xiu propped a hand against the door, looking down at her,
"What I say, is the truth."
Then, Su Yan felt even more deflated.
She should hurry back to sit on the Emperor’s throne.
Once she’s the Emperor, she’ll be the boss.
Situ Xiu stared at her downtrodden look.
Reached out, winding a strand of her hair around his fingers, playing with it.
"Guard Song, no need to be upset."
Su Yan lifted her head.
He continued leisurely,
"After all, there’s still a way to redeem yourself."
"What way?"
Situ Xiu edged closer, extremely close.
Whispering,
"If you can entertain me enough to make me happy, I won’t hold you accountable."
Su Yan was puzzled,
"How will you be happy?"
"That’s up to you."
He said in a slow voice.
The moment his words fell.
Just as he was about to pull back and let the little guard continue with her tasks,
he suddenly saw her lift her hand, slowly wrapping him in an embrace.
His body stiffened.
After hugging for a while, Su Yan raised her head and asked, seriously,
"Are you happy now?"
