Chapter 281 Tell the Truth Chapter
She covered her lips with her hand, then quickly let go, picked up a handkerchief, and wiped her palms with disgust.
"Little Yan'er~"
Caught off guard by the sudden shove, and with such disdain in her eyes, Ye Wumian's face was filled with displeasure.
Xin Moyan raised an eyebrow, her gaze passing behind his ear and landing on that beautiful figure.
"Hey~ I can't sleep at night, I have something to ask you."
"Little Yan'er, you should address me as Your Majesty."
She waved her hand, "That's not important! The key thing is, do you want to know Ruoyu's feelings?"
Upon hearing Yao Ruoyu's name, Ye Wumian was visibly taken aback, his eyes flashing. "Hmph! Why bring her up?"
This arrogant... no, it should be this sickly demeanor, made Xin Moyan shake her head.
"Can you stop being so hypocritical? You clearly care about someone, but you're saying such sarcastic and mean things."
"When have I ever been hypocritical? I..."
He instantly raised his voice, and even Yao Ruoyu, who was sitting alone in the back, heard it. She couldn't help but crane her neck to look at them, although she couldn't see what the two were doing because Ye Wumian was blocking her view.
Xin Moyan rested her chin on one hand, her eyes full of gossip.
Ye Wumian narrowed his eyes and said in a sinister tone, "Little Yan'er, what kind of look is that? Saying such strange and outrageous things again, do you believe I will punish you?"
"Go ahead and treat me! I'm at your mercy now, killing me is as easy as turning your hand. I'll just tell the truth."
"What truth?"
Xin Moyan suddenly bumped into his shoulder, her smile malicious, and lowered her voice, "Ye Wumian, you actually really like Sister Ruoyu, don't you?"
"Little Yan'er, what nonsense are you spouting now? I love you the most, otherwise I wouldn't have made you my empress."
"Tsk~" she clicked her tongue, her eyes showing a hint of disdain.
"You dare to do it but not admit it! If you didn't like her, why did you force her into the palace?"
Ye Wumian leaned her face closer, her voice low and soft, "I find her beautiful, is that not allowed?"
"Sure! Of course it's fine! It's all about lust! But now that Sister Ruoyu is heavily pregnant, her figure has changed. They say that beauty fades before love ends. You're unhappy with her, so you torment her day and night."
"Who said that?"
"I said."
He was somewhat exasperated, but didn't want to explain. He snorted coldly and turned to look at the singing and dancing below.
Seeing that he wasn't taking the bait, Xin Moyan sighed with feigned regret and whispered to the air, "Sigh~ Actually, I know everything. The child in Ruoyu's belly isn't yours, and she's been neglecting you, which is why you're treating me like this..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Wumian grabbed his shoulder tightly, his red eyes seemingly emitting an eerie red light.
"Did she tell you that?"
Xin Moyan was quite frightened by his terrifying gaze, but she still braced herself.
"Yes! In this palace, the only people I can talk to besides you are Sister Ruoyu."
"What else did she... say to you?"
The chill emanating from his shoulder sent a shiver down Xin Moyan's spine; he looked like he wanted to kill someone!
"Sleepless Night, don't get agitated! Let go, let go, it hurts so much."
She quickly smiled ingratiatingly, gestured with her lips, and drew his attention to the hand resting on his shoulder.
Actually, Xin Moyan wasn't entirely sure, but her sixth sense told her that she would definitely win this gamble.
Ye Wumian glared at her fiercely before letting go.
"Xin Moyan, what else did she say? What exactly do you want to tell me?"
"Then I'll tell you, you can't hit me. I can't stand being wronged."
Xin Moyan pouted, twirling her two index fingers in front of her chest, looking like a wronged child.
"Ah."
He gave a cold reply, cursing Xin Moyan a thousand times in his heart. If this girl wasn't Xin Moyan, he would definitely chop off her head!
"Cough cough!"
Xin Moyan coughed twice, then pretended to be friendly and sat closer, lowering her voice so that only the two of them could hear her.
"You like Sister Ruoyu, so you forced her into the palace. But you found out that she not only doesn't like you, but she's also pregnant with another man's child. That's why you've been bullying her, trying to make her hate you so that she can only submit to you."
"..."
Ye Wumian neither spoke nor made a move, but his gaze grew increasingly sinister, his eerie red eyes making Xin Moyan subconsciously swallow, feeling a little nervous.
"Anything else? Keep going!"
He spoke slowly and deliberately, as if each word was being forced out through clenched teeth.
"Hmm~ You want her to care about you, so you have her follow you around every day to serve you, and even let her see you pampering other women, all to make Sister Ruoyu jealous, right?"
"..."
After a long silence, Xin Moyan added a few words, "This time you brought me into the palace and made me empress. On the one hand, you wanted to use me to get revenge on Xuan Yuan. On the other hand, you also wanted to use the same old trick to let Sister Ruoyu know that she is not the only special person in this palace. You also wanted to prove whether she has any place for you in her heart."
"..."
Silence is Cambridge tonight...
The oppressive aura emanating from him made Xin Moyan feel a little suffocated. Even Yao Ruoyu, who was sitting not far away, could feel it. However, from her perspective, the two of them were close together, flirting and teasing each other, and there seemed to be nothing unusual.
"Since you didn't deny it, that means you admitted it!"
"When...did I admit it?"
"stop!"
She made a stop gesture, indicating that he should continue listening to her.
"Actually, I'm sleepless at night. If I told you that Sister Ruoyu has feelings for you, would you believe me?"
"Impossible! Little Yan'er, if you keep talking, I'm going to lose my temper."
This idea successfully stirred up Ye Wumian's emotions. Although he warned her in a sinister tone, he was secretly excited and wanted to hear her continue. Could it be that she had spoken to Xiao Yan'er?
"Okay! Then I won't say anything more."
Sleepless Night: "..."
Why hadn't she been so obedient just now? Night Sleep was so angry that her chest heaved and her fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
"Little Yan'er, are you really not going to talk about it?"
Xin Moyan was utterly speechless. Would it kill her to lose face a little?
"Have someone go outside and bring in some snow."
The topic changed so quickly that Ye Wumian was taken aback. "What is Sheng Xue doing?"
"Just listen to me."
"Your Majesty, you'll find out soon enough."
Xin Moyan drawled out her words and deliberately adjusted her angle, winking at him suggestively so that Yao Ruoyu could see it clearly.
Ye Wumian's expression softened considerably. She raised her hand to the side, and a palace servant immediately ran forward.
A moment later, a jade urn was placed in front of them, filled with soft, fluffy white snow, pure white and spotless.
What are you going to do with the snow?
"Your Majesty, watch closely!"
She rolled up her sleeves, reached into the jar and grabbed a handful of snow, then handed it to Ye Wumian. But the warmth of her palm instantly melted the snow into water, which dripped incessantly.
