Chapter 133 - Aggrieved Tale (1/2)

Lei Xing's quickly used the opportunity of the Emperor being distracted to get out of his hold. The Emperor turned back to her and she glared at him. He then sighed and turned back to Lei Yong, ”Ah Yong, it's good to see you...here.”

Lei Yong looked at the Lei Xing and then back to the Emperor then frowned, but before he could respond. Lei Xing shouted, ”Stop!” As Tung Mei turned around to run, she and Lei Xing had just made eye contact and in that split second, they both remembered the bracelet. Tung Mei froze and Lei Xing swiftly appeared in front of her and grabbed her arm and menacingly said, ”You've been avoiding me.”

Tung Mei looked at her, ”Hehe~ Xing jie, I would never avoid you. I just didn't know it was urgent...”

”Urgent?” Lei Xing asked through gritted teeth and then pulled Tung Mei to the side, out of earshot of the other three. Leaving the Emperor, Lei Yong and Xiao Ting standing there, confused with their behavior.

The Emperor walked up to Lei Yong and smirked at him, ”It seems you have been making progress yourself.”

Lei Yong frowned and grumbled, ”...And it seems you have been making too much progress.”

The Emperor looked him over, ”You seem to be in a bad mood. Anything I can help with?”

Lei Yong cast him a side glance and then sighed, ”It's good that you're getting along with my sister but...” Lei Yong paused then knit his eyebrows and looked away.

”But?” The Emperor asked with a raised eyebrow.

”Why are you- How can you - in the street...be - ?” Lei Yong stopped again. He was very happy that the Emperor was getting along with Lei Xing. It was the best outcome he could hope for with both of them happy together.

The Emperor has clearly been happier these days than ever before and he knew it was because of Lei Xing. But still...even if they were in an inconspicuous corner, doing something like this in the street is a bit too much, isn't it? He was happy but not happy. He actually would not have noticed them himself if not for Tung Mei suddenly frowning in that direction.

The Emperor looked at Lei Yong's disgruntled face and snorted.

{...Ah, concerned brother mode?... But there's nothing to be concerned about, I'm already her husband and doing that is normal...Regardless, there's nothing to explain, it's our personal business...}

Lei Yong knew how stubborn the Emperor could be once he set his mind on something, it was hard to talk him out of it. So he decided that he would talk to Lei Xing instead once he got an opportunity. Even if the Emperor wants to be unruly, she should still maintain decorum and not let herself be pulled along.

While Lei Yong was busy thinking, the three Zou tagalongs seeing that couple time was finally over walked up to join the group. Lei Yong kept his reservations to himself and greeted Prince Rui and Princess Nalan and then quietly sighed to himself.

{...Xing er' is also a ”do what I want” kind of person...These two are a giving me a headache -_-)...}

Meanwhile, Lei Xing rolled up her sleeve and pointed at the bracelet, ”You have some explaining to do.”

Tung Mei blinked at the bracelet and then smiled, ”Oh Xing jie, you had it? It's fine, it looks better on yo-”

”Don't pretend, you knew I had it, and it's the pissing the hell off. No wonder you were behaving like a creep, it was terrorizing you, wasn't it?” Lei Xing asked with knit eyebrows.

”Ahhh...Well, yo-”

”Oh, jiejie where did you find it?” Xiao Ting suddenly asked and the two turned to see her standing behind them. She had apparently followed behind them.
