Chapter 89: Let's Continue What We Didn't Finish

This gesture made Feng Xiyao's face flush slightly.

"Empress, speak. How do you explain this?" Mo Cangyan's deep voice rumbled lowly above her head.

"Your Majesty, I was wrong. Please don't be angry!" Feng Xiyao cried out, feeling helpless. Whenever the Tyrant got angry, her health would decrease, and she would be punished accordingly.

"Why, oh system, did you have to give me such a setting?!"

Mo Cangyan was puzzled. What system?

"Explain yourself properly, and I'll listen," he instructed.

Feng Xiyao paused in her pretended act of wiping away tears. "Really? You're actually going to listen?!"

Spotting the tyrant's cold gaze upon her, Feng Xiyao steeled herself and reached out to embrace the man's neck, tears instantly welling up in her eyes.

"Importal Majesty hasn't visited me for several days and has been spending all your time with Imperial Noble Consort Kong. I was truly heartbroken, so I sneaked out of the palace to clear my mind!"

Seeing her wipe away tears while secretly glancing at him, Mo Cangyan knew she was lying but still felt delighted deep down.

Her willingness to deceive him indicated that she did have feelings for him.

A faint smile tugged at the corners of Mo Cangyan's mouth. "So the Empress was jealous and left the palace for a whole day to ease her heart?"

Feng Xiyao expressed her disdain. "Jealous? Please, you're overestimating yourself."

Upon hearing this, the slight curve of Mo Cangyan's lips flattened, and a hint of anger flickered in his eyes.

Suddenly, he sat up, causing Feng Xiyao, who was straddling him, to fall off.

"Ouch!"

Feng Xiyao was both angry and puzzled. "What's wrong with the tyrant? Did I not act convincingly enough?"

Mo Cangyan gritted his teeth. Fine, he couldn't deceive himself. This woman indeed didn't care about him at all; it was all his one-sided affection.

For the first time in his life, Mo Cangyan felt such defeat, his expression turning even more grim.

"The Empress has run away from the palace. She is to be confined!"

"The attendants who failed to stop her promptly shall receive thirty strikes each!"

Feng Xiyao's eyes widened. "Your Majesty, you can't do this!"

Mo Cangyan held her chin, his phoenix-like eyes narrowing. "I am the emperor, and all of Great Xia obeys my command. Does the empress have any objections?"

Feeling the threat to its host's safety and fearing punishment, the system reluctantly spoke up.

"Host, you can't confront the tyrant head-on. You need to be more submissive!"

"Aren't they saying that a coquettish woman has the best fate? Can't you learn from that?"

Looking into the tyrant's icy gaze, Feng Xiyao swallowed her fear with a gulp.

Amused to the core! She couldn't possibly be tough now even if she wanted to!

Upon hearing this, Kong Xue'er at the entrance curled her lips into a smile and called out to the eunuchs outside the room.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and do something! Are you waiting for the Emperor to punish all of you as well?"

Feng Xiyao clenched her fists upon hearing Kong Xue'er's voice.

After Mo Cangyan finished speaking, he glared at her coldly for a moment before lowering his hand and turning to leave.

Feng Xiyao steeled herself, closed her eyes, and grabbed the man's collar, pulling him back.

Then, she tiptoed and pressed her cool lips against his.

"..."

Mo Cangyan's phoenix eyes, which had been lowered, widened slightly. Feeling that she was merely lightly touching him, he wasn't satisfied. He raised his hand to circle her waist, lifted her up in a princess carry, and deepened the kiss.

The two of them continued kissing as they walked towards the bed!

Mo Cangyan gently laid her on the bed, his lips still lingering...

Feng Xiyao, dazed from the kiss, regained her senses and placed her hand on the man's muscular chest, pushing him away with effort.

"..."

Having been interrupted while kissing, Mo Cangyan was furious. His slender phoenix eyes, filled with confusion and anger, fixated on the woman beneath him, her cheeks flushed from the encounter.

Recalling the need for persuasion, Feng Xiyao immediately adopted a meek tone, "Your Majesty, please spare my people, forgive your humble servant, I beg of you!"

As she spoke, she clasped her hands together, looking pitiful, "Please, I beg you!"

Mo Cangyan was both amused and exasperated. It seemed that this woman had kissed him solely for the sake of those outside.

"I'll spare you all today, but if there's a next time, take your own lives. All of you, leave my presence!"

Kong Xue'er was stunned. Wasn't he just filled with rage? How did his tone become so soft?

"Your Majesty..."

Without waiting for Kong Xue'er to respond, Mo Cangyan spoke up.

"Go back and rest. You must be tired from accompanying me today!"

Kong Xue'er had wanted to investigate what had transpired inside to prompt such a change in the Emperor's attitude, but with his command, she dared not proceed.

"I beg your leave, Your Majesty!"

Frustrated and bewildered, Kong Xue'er could hardly comprehend how her plan to humiliate Feng Xiyao had ended up like this.

...

Noticing the silence outside, Feng Xiyao was about to heave a sigh of relief when she met the man's fiery gaze, causing her heart to skip a beat.

"I'm still in trouble, it seems I haven't been rescued yet!"

Mo Cangyan's Adam's apple shifted as he said, "Empress, let's continue what we left unfinished earlier!"

With that, he leaned down to kiss her, gently parting her lips, and his tongue slipped in...

The tyrant's advances were too aggressive, and Feng Xiyao found herself momentarily overwhelmed, like a drifting log passively accepting his every move.

His scorching breath brushed against her face, the long-restrained kiss now tinged with ferocity...

Their lips remained entwined for what seemed like an eternity, but Mo Cangyan's desires grew beyond a simple embrace. His hands began to wander across her body.

Feeling his hand approach her chest, Feng Xiyao instinctively reached to stop him. However, her wrists were swiftly pinned above her head by the tyrant's single hand, rendering her immobilized!

His cool lips continued their descent down her neck, leaving Feng Xiyao's eyes wide in surprise.

"No, Mo Cangyan, wait a moment. This is moving too fast!"

Mo Cangyan ignored her plea, continuing to kiss her collarbone as he casually spoke.

"It should have happened a long time ago!"

Feng Xiyao felt like crying. Did she really have to sell herself for this mission? The damned system never mentioned anything like this!

In her heart, she couldn't help but curse, "Damned System, what do I do?"

"..."

The system, too embarrassed to witness the upcoming scene, had already automatically shut down and wouldn't respond to her cries for help.

Unaware of her wails, Mo Cangyan was displeased that she dared to be distracted during such a serious moment. He nipped at her chest in annoyance.

"Ahh!"

With such an intimate area bitten, Feng Xiyao's face flushed red instantly. She dared not lift her gaze to look at the man on top of her.

"D*mn it, never having touched a man in two lifetimes. Should I fully enjoy this or resist fiercely?"

Hearing that she had no experience with men, Mo Cangyan's mood significantly improved.

He was the Son of Heaven, ruler of the entire Great Xia. No matter if this woman was human or ghost, once she entered the palace, she could only belong to him!

With this thought in mind, he quickly reached out to strip the woman beneath him...

Just as Mo Cangyan was about to pull off her undergarment, Feng Xiyao felt a sudden sharp pain in her abdomen, followed by a warm rush...

Her eyes widened. "I have my period!"
