What did he say?

Shen Zhiqiao was puzzled. "What should I tell you?"

"In your heart, you know the weight you hold in my heart. Therefore, you predicted that I would not have the heart to reject you, that you would kneel to me three times, and that you would even intentionally suppress your voice to beg me. Aren't you determined that I will not give up on you!"

After pausing for a moment, he ignored the apologetic look that flashed in her eyes and continued, "I can let you off, but you need to admit to me that you know why I am reluctant to part with you. You know my feelings, don't you?"

As their relationship progressed to this stage, although he could vaguely feel the change in her feelings towards him, but from what he knew, it was better if their feelings were clear. Only after confirming her feelings towards him and hearing it from her mouth would he feel that they were really very close.

Shen Zhiqiao's hand that was holding onto his clothes trembled, and he was about to get down from his legs.

Tuoba Yu didn't give in and stubbornly stared into her eyes in search for an answer. "Answer me!"

Shen Zhi Qiao could not struggle at all. Under his gaze, her heartbeat gradually quickened, and she did not dare to look into his eyes that could intimidate her soul. She widened her eyes, and reluctantly pulled the corner of her lips, "Tuoba Yu, what are you talking about? I, I don't understand …"

Did he not understand it or did he not want to understand it?

Tuoba Yu's eyes turned slightly silent. He pinched her chin and his eyes turned deep as he said, "So … if you don't understand, I can tell you …"

When he said this, he purposely paused. Shen Zhi Qiao suddenly held his breath and looked at him in panic. Even though he was afraid that Li Yao would say it, he was also faintly anticipating it. His heart couldn't help but beat faster.

She carefully held her breath as she listened. Tuoba Yu was slightly moved, and a trace of gentleness flashed on his face. "This … This Emperor … "Mhmm …"

Shen Zhiqiao accidentally kissed him when he said those words. Both of her hands wrapped around his neck, and her body moved forward. Her pair of eyes were like a pair of deer's, she quickly closed her eyes and took the initiative to kiss his lips, her body slightly trembling.

However, Tuoba Yu's eyes, which were as deep as the sea, darkened. His long eyelashes drooped slightly, and when he saw her close her eyes and kiss her face, he did not push her away, nor did he respond.

Shen Zhi Qiao kissed for a while. She closed her eyes, and her long, cicada wings dragged out a deep shadow. She couldn't get a response from him for a long time.

She could no longer carry on and slowly opened her eyes. There was a faint shyness in them, and she didn't even dare to look at him. She prepared to retreat.

However, Tuoba Yu grabbed her head at the right time and quickly deepened the kiss.

"Mm …" His kiss was very forceful. Shen Zhiqiao frowned. The hand that grabbed his lapel tightened, but obediently did not struggle.

Tuoba's handsome face twisted into a beast, and a faint trace of anger could be seen in his bewitching eyes.

A long time passed.

The carriage slowly stopped.

Shen Zhiqiao weakly fell onto his body, not wanting to move at all.

Tuoba Yu glanced at her and exhaled deeply. He habitually kissed her sweaty hair before slightly straightening up and tidying up the messy clothes between them. After that, he carried her out of the carriage.

With flushed cheeks and red ears, Wen Nan watched as the two of them came out. She tactfully retreated to the side and lowered her head.

Tuoba Yu didn't even look at him as he carried the sweating Shen Zhiqiao directly towards the entrance of the palace.

South followed.

He pursed his lips and watched the two of them leave. After pausing for a while, until the voices of the few people in front of them disappeared into the darkness, he frowned and flew up onto the city wall. With his hands behind his back, he stood still as he silently looked down at the city wall, his gaze following behind him.

Two days later, Shen Zhi Qiao walked back to the palace gate looking very unhappy.

For the past two days, she would head to the palace gate a few times a day, hoping to take the opportunity to go out and see Nan Yue.

However, the palace gates were tightly guarded, and without the palace plates, she couldn't leave. The last time she was able to leave, it was only because the Rui Family's carriage was waiting at the entrance that she was able to leave.

She had originally wanted to ask someone for his hand in marriage, but when she remembered that night when he had carried her back to the Soul Orchid Palace and left with a dark face, she couldn't bring herself to look for him.

And from then on, someone came to her in the future. Perhaps she made him angry, but she didn't want to investigate the reason for his anger.

Raising his head to look at the palace shrouded in silver light, he realized that this place was too big and too cold. Beneath the tranquil exterior were countless restless souls … His eyes gradually filled with confusion.

Shen Zhi Qiao stood alone in the snow. She was so tiny that she seemed to have merged with the snow. After a long while, she suddenly trembled and felt a little cold.

She stretched out her hand to gather up the big demon outside and tightly wrapped herself. The thick boots left a deep imprint on the snow. The imprint followed her all the way to the Soul Orchid Hall.

When she passed by the long bridge in front of the Hall of Divine Orchid, she was attracted by the scenery of the bridge.

The elegant and elegant man stood on the bridge like a clean lotus, silently standing there. The picturesque and petite beauty in front of him was snuggled into the man's embrace like a cute little mouse that was warming up, and from time to time she would let out a sweet laughter that was as sweet as a bell. When she smiled, the man in front of her could only look at her helplessly and dotingly, occasionally lightly scratching Little Mei's nose with his fingers.

Both of them looked like dragons and phoenixes among men. They were extremely pleasing to the eyes, and they looked very warm as well. They added some warmth to the desolate palace by relying on the ground.

The corner of her mouth curved involuntarily. Unknowingly, a hint of envy appeared in her eyes. Shen Zhi Qiao was lost in thought, until a petite body recklessly landed on her. She was not in a hurry and almost fell down.

Perhaps he felt that he had used a bit too much strength, so he quickly reached out to hold her back, "Apologies elder sister, I didn't do it on purpose, are you alright?!"

Shen Zhiqiao calmed himself down and smiled. Just as he was about to reply, a voice that was as clear as a spring came from behind his ears, "Little Qizi, you won't be able to learn peace of mind …"

Although her words were full of reproach, her voice was clearly filled with helplessness.

Shen Zhi Qiao looked over and his pupils contracted. He was so surprised that his mouth was slightly agape.

His hair was flying in the air, his clothes were fluttering in the wind, his facial features were clear and bright, and his eyes were as clear as water. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile as he looked at the person holding her hand, but from the beginning to the end, he did not even look at her.

Perhaps it was because her gaze was too strong, but Ji Lanye gently turned his gaze towards her, as if he had stopped for a second, and then turned his gaze towards her side once again.

Shen Zhiqiao's face turned red from his one second of 'watching'. Her ears started to burn. She covered her mouth in embarrassment and faked a cough. However, she couldn't stop looking at Ji Lanye from the corner of her eyes.

He was too elegant, and his entire body emitted a transcendental aura. This kind of person, even in the midst of ten thousand people, would still find it difficult to conceal his temperament.

"Elder sister …" Tuoba saw that she lowered her head and didn't say anything, and worriedly waved her hand in front of her eyes, "Sister, don't scare me. You, are you alright …"

If anything happens to you, the emperor will flay me!
