Chapter 59 - Arousal (2/2)
...Just in the event, you are here to finish the job for your crazy mother...
After confirming that it was safe, she then sipped it while cautiously looking at the Emperor, who was currently forward.
...So what is this? Bribery?...Hmph! You're pretty cheap for an ”Emperor” -_-)...You should at least bring a trunk or two of gems or maybe a warehouse of cash...What are you even going to use it for? I don't know, staring at it will be nice en-...END IT!-_-)...I'm just saying, if you're going to bribe someone, you should at least put in some effort, not this fake ”nice” thing you have going on here...I mean it's common decency! -_-)...
”What exactly happened?” The Emperor finally asked after a long while.
Lei Xing inwardly scoffed.
...Oh I see, this is an interrogation...Softening up the subject before slaughter...What happened is your mother is freaking crazy B**ch!... But since I don't think you'd take that explanation well then I don't know what happened -_-)...
Lei Xing was feeling so irritated that she could not bring herself to say anything and was just glaring down at the bed.
After not receiving a response, the Emperor then sighed and said, ”I am sorry this happened to you.” He then turned to look at Lei Xing, ”It will not happen again.”
Lei Xing glanced up at him.
...Yeah, sure...Whatever you say -_-)'...
”I mean it, it will not happen again.” The emperor reassured after noticing the disbelief in her eyes.
Lei Xing glanced up at him and gave a hoarse, ”En.” and then looked back down.
...Yeah, I believe you will ”try”...And I'm sure your pep talk will be super effective ¬_¬)...While you're at it, I suggest running a dagger through her for better performance... Also, why did that Freaking witch even do that to me? Because she's crazy...Ruined her life? Hmph, she and her cohort here are freaking ruining MY LIFE!! ಠ_ಠ)...
Suddenly, Eunuch Li came into the room and informed, ”Your majesty, the Empress dowager is here...to see Noble consort Lei.”
Lei Xing immediately froze and started cold sweating a bit.
...W-Why?! Did she come to finish the job!?...I'm not scared, not scared at all...It's just, I think we both need some space...I'm not scared at all, just...Please just leave me alone, I'm tired T_T)...
When neither of the two responded, Eunuch Li then continued to ask, ”Should she come in?”
Lei Xing immediately went wide-eyed and then frowned.
...Come in? Here? Can't she just go die off in a ditch somewhere? Or get lost in space, forest or whatever? Any of those would work...Why, Why, Why is she OKAY?!! I should have caused at least some brain damage, what a disappointment!...
Lei Xing then felt a hand on patting her head and immediately frowned at it.
...What the HELL do you think you're doing? ಠ╭╮ಠ)...
The Emperor smiled at her and calmly said, ”Don't worry.”
Lei Xing irritatedly moved his hand off while frowning.
...Do I look like a freaking puppy to you?!... And worried? Who's worried? If she comes near me right now, I will decimate her life!!... Therefore, she is the one who should be worried. Therefore. You. Should. Keep. Her. Away. From. Me for her own FREAKING SAFETY!! ಠ╭╮ಠ)...
The Emperor snorted at Lei Xing's ”fierce fighter” expression and then got up and left the room with Eunuch Li.
Lei Xing glared at them as they walked towards the doors.
...What the hell is funny a***ole?! You think I can't take her? Why don't you bring her in here and we'll test it out, Huh?!!! Right now, Bring her!... Okay, but since you have chosen to see her alone, I respect your decision for peaceful resolution...I, myself have always been an advocate for peace, that's why I'll let this go today...But if she ever tries me again, then you'll see ¬_¬)...
Lei Xing let out a small sigh of relief. As the Emperor left the room, an Imperial doctor and two maids trotted into the room. After checking on her condition, the Imperial doctor then left to brew some medication for her.
After the Imperial doctor left, Lei Xing was left with the maids who were just standing there with their heads bowed.
Lei Xing cleared her throat a little and they looked up and went, ”Your highness, is there anything you need?”
”Help me get dressed, I'm returning to my palace.” Lei Xing said with a raspy voice, then she touched her throat.
...That Witch! Now I can't sing myself to sleep! -_-)...Not that I do, I'm just saying it's just one of those things I could do before but can't do right now...Also can't do push-ups or pull-ups now too...Also part of the many things that I don't do, that I can't do now, just saying...Freaking Witch! -_-)...
”I'm sorry Your highness, but the Emperor has instructed for you to remain here.” One of the maids explained with a bow.
Lei Xing covertly rolled her eyes.
...Did he now? What the hell for? -_-)...
”Your highness, is there something else you need help with?”
”No.” Lei Xing curtly replied, then sighed and added, ”Some more of that tea.” She said handing the cup to one of them who came forward.
...Let's look at it this way, if I were in my palace right now, and that crazy witch showed up there would have been nothing I could do to stop her from waltzing in - She could have straight up have walked into the room while I was sleeping and poured a dose of goodbye serum down my throat and that'd be it, here I don't even have to look at her, isn't that wonderful?...
Lei Xing sighed.
...It's quite interesting what I consider to be wonderful these days -_-)...Well, it's not like he's going to try anything with me being injured, especially by his crap mother...He would have to be an insane brute to do that...And if he tried, I would kill him...Um, you couldn't even kill his mother who was try-...I don't need a bloody reminder of that! Forget it!... That was a fluke, a surprise attack!...I'll do my own surprise attack this time! ˇ ⊖ˇ)...
