The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 116 If Only You Were Liqing
The moon at night was shining brightly.
Not knowing how long time had passed, Qin Ruojiu who was leaning in the arms of Emperor Zhaolie was already asleep. However, Emperor Zhaolie still felt worried and could not sleep.
After a while, he reached out his hand to get rid of the mosquito net that was on the mattress and looked towards the woman who was inside his arms.
The moonlight entered the room through the room window and shone on Qin Ruojiu's white forehead. Qin Ruojiu looks so calm and serene!
The lentic eyelashes also look very beautiful and can intoxicate everyone who sees it.
At this moment, Emperor Zhaolie went to sit down and placed Qin Ruojiu's head carefully on his feet. His eyes were on the woman who was sleeping on her feet. Then he said softly, “Why aren't you Liqing. If you were Liqing, all this would feel even more beautiful. The Emperor also wanted to continue hugging her like this and could hug her forever ..”
Emperor Zhaolie sighed and opened the black veil that covered Qin Ruojiu's face slowly. Then he rubbed the red and soft Qin Ruojiu cheeks slowly. Her skin felt soft like cotton.
Emperor Zhaolie kept asking, “Liqing .. Liqing .. when can you just return to the Emperor's side ..”
Then he continued saying, “If you go back to the Emperor's side, can the Emperor still fall in love with this woman? Can the Emperor still glance at another woman?”
The Emperor's hoarse-sounding voice also slowly disappeared. His big hand also caressed Qin Ruojiu's blushing lips. Suddenly his eyes changed.
Finally Emperor Zhaolie lowered his head and kissed Qin Ruojiu's lips. The figure of Emperor Zhaolie disappeared in the darkness of that night. He looks like a ghost who comes and goes as he pleases.
At that moment, Lu’er came and brought the hot water he had prepared for Qin Ruojiu. When he saw that Qin Ruojiu had woken up, he said happily, “Monya, you are awake?”
Qin Ruojiu nodded her head then looked beside her and around her room. Why didn't he see anyone? He lowered his head and felt confused. He thought to himself, Why did he just leave, why did he know nothing at all?
Last night, the Emperor actually kept his promise and did nothing to him. Thinking that, Qin Ruojiu was relieved and did not want to think much more. Because he didn't hurt her, so why did he still have to think so much? It was only because he had just survived Emperor Zhaolie's torment, so in his heart he felt a little uneasy.
“Mistress, what are you thinking again?” Lu’er who saw her Nyonya looked confused and immediately felt worried and asked.
Qin Ruojiu was also awakened from her daydream. Then he smiled gently and shook his head, “Only earlier, did you see the person who came out of my room not?”
After hearing that, Lu’er looked a little confused then looked around. Then he put down the towel he had in his hand and asked, “Mistress, what's up? Have you lost something?”
Looking at the worried Lu’er, Qin Ruojiu smiled again and said, “No, I guess someone came to my room, so I asked!”
How could he have told someone else that last night he had spent the night with the demon in this room? But, speaking of that demon, he really did not understand. Why was he treating her so gently and politely now. It really keeps him from thinking.
This changed attitude of his made him feel that Emperor Zhaolie was turning into someone else. He no longer tortured her and treated her cruelly and instead treated her like a wife gently and soulfully.
