"…" Tuoba Yu pursed his lips and did not say anything, but the strength of his hand on her wrist became even stronger.

His wrist was hurting from the pinching, but Shen Zhi Qiao was smiling, "If you want to know, then drink this medicine. I'll tell you after you drink it!" As she spoke, she handed him the medicine bowl in her hand and raised her eyebrows as she looked at him.

Tuoba Yu narrowed his eyes. He couldn't help but twitch his thin lips at the bright and beautiful smile on her face. With a snort, he snatched the medicine bowl from her hands and downed it in one gulp.

The medicinal liquid within his mouth was extremely bitter. Tuoba Yu frowned in disgust, then gripped the medicine bowl with his two fingers and prepared to throw it out.

Shen Zhi Qiao was quick to react. The moment he threw the pill out, he snatched it from his hand and placed it on the workbench. Then, he turned his head and stared into Shen Zhi's eyes, "For the past half a month, you have been coming to the Soul Orchid Hall late at night. Why didn't you come in?"

"…" Tuoba Yu was stunned. A suspicious blush flashed across his handsome face, but his gaze was dull. "Did he tell you that from the south?"

Shen Zhi Qiao didn't say whether he wanted to say it or not, stubbornly saying, "Why?"

"…" Tuoba Yu became slightly angry from the embarrassment and his voice turned slightly stern, "Why what? "The entire palace belongs to me. I go wherever I want to go, there's no reason …"

"Tuoba Yu …" Shen Zhi Qiao raised his voice slightly, his voice trembling uncontrollably. His eyes turned red once again, "Why …? Didn't he say that it would take three days?! Why do you come in every night and not come in? "What do you want?"

"Shen Zhiqiao, don't you know what This Emperor wants to do?" Her questioning finally angered Tuoba. With bloodshot eyes, he fiercely grabbed her wrist. His handsome face twisted as he growled, "Do you think I don't know what you're going to talk about with me?"

"Shen Zhiqiao, if you ask me what I want, I'll tell you what I want. I want you, I want you to stay by my side. I won't let you escape!"

As soon as he said this, he grabbed her wrist and pulled down. His other hand closed around her jaw and he kissed her.

Shen Zhi Qiao choked with sobs as she patted his shoulder. Because he was sick, her actions became lighter and lighter. In the end, she placed her hand on his shoulder and looked at him with her pair of big eyes brimming with tears.

Sensing her compromise, Madam Tuoba's kiss also softened. She slowly opened her eyes with furrowed brows.

The person in front of him was now in tears and sobbing.

With a sharp pain in his heart, Tuoba Yu closed his eyes and could no longer continue. He took a deep breath and gave himself a self-deprecating smile. He stopped moving, but he did not push her away.

Shen Zhi Qiao obediently leaned into his embrace. The two of them embraced each other, and for a long time, neither of them spoke.

Just when she thought that neither of them would say anything else, the person lying on the ground next to her neck suddenly opened her mouth.

"As for that, stay by my side. Don't leave. I'll give you whatever you want …" His voice was filled with pleading.

The tears that she had just stopped once again welled up. He did not say "I", he said "I", but somehow, she only felt very sad.

He should be the person she hated the most in this world.

He clearly knew, clearly knew that she was determined to leave, yet he used this kind of method to constantly waver her resolve, constantly dazzling her heart.

She thought that if he was a little stronger and treated her a little harsher, perhaps she would be able to steeled her heart and leave this place, but unfortunately, he always respected her and never forced her. Even if he knew the truth behind her departure, he would only choose to escape and not meet her …

Feeling both pain and hatred, Shen Zhiqiao opened his mouth and fiercely bit down on Zhou Weiqing's shoulder, using the gravitational force.

"Yes." Tuoba Yu gave a pained grunt, but he did not stop her. He tightened his grip around her waist and said, "Even if you hate me every day in the future, if you want to bite me to death, I won't let you go!"

His domineering attitude caused Shen Zhi Qiao to bite down even more heavily. After a long while, she finally loosened her bite. With tears in her eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "Tuoba Yu, I hate you!"

Tuoba Yu raised his head from her neck and looked at her. His almond-shaped eyes darkened as he said, "I already said, even if you hate me, I won't let you go …" "Mhmm …"

He clenched his fists tightly and looked at the person who was' kissing 'him with his phoenix eyes in disbelief. His body stiffened.

Shen closed his eyes, refusing to look into his shocked eyes. He cupped his hands around his face and kissed him.

Tuoba Yu stared blankly at the woman on his face. Although she was' focusing 'on kissing him, her long eyelashes trembled intensely. From time to time, she would brush against his face, causing him to feel a little bit tired.

For a moment, he didn't understand why she would suddenly kiss him, so he didn't respond. His eyes were as black as the deep sea.

Shen Zhi Qiao was nervous, but she was determined. She didn't retreat.

Bian Yu felt a shiver down his spine. It was as if he had just regained his senses and seized control of the situation.

Shen Zhiqiao's hands were on his shoulders as he stared at her with wide eyes. He was also staring at her with his golden phoenix-like eyes.

Affected by the joy in his eyes, Shen Zhiqiao felt his heart lighten. His eyebrows warmed up and he slowly closed his eyes.

At this moment, his mood was even more excited and joyful than it was three years ago when he sat down on the throne.

At this moment, she didn't care about being bashful nor did she care about whether her decision was right or wrong. She only knew that when she told him about her decision, she looked at him with a pleased expression in her eyes.
