Chapter 847: Chapter 317: The Empress and Arrest Officer Lin’s Two-Pronged Attack! Chen Mo Plays Both Sides!

?

The Empress suddenly snapped back to reality, a panic filling her almond eyes.

With Zhu’er right nearby, does this little thief still dare to act recklessly?

A pair of tender hands pressed against Chen Mo’s chest, trying to push him away, but Chen Mo was persistent. His large hands slid down along her waistline and pressed onto the full curve—

His fingers exerted force, sinking deeply, and the palace gown rippled with folds.

"Mm~"

The Empress’s body trembled a bit, unable to suppress a muffled groan, her tightly closed lips slightly parting, completely surrendering.

Under that aggressive assault, her mind became dizzy, her tense body gradually turned to gentle softness, weakly falling into Chen Mo’s embrace, her hands that were pushed against his chest unwittingly draped around his neck.

After a long kiss, they parted.

The Empress’s bosom rose and fell as she shyly glanced at Lin Jingzhu.

Seeing that the other had her eyes tightly shut, still in meditation and unaware of anything that had just happened, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Mo had one hand on Little Grapefruit, dispelling the Chill Toxin, and the other arm wrapped around the Empress’s waist, he chuckled softly and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, Lin Catcher’s five senses have already been shielded by me, ensuring she won’t detect anything unusual."

As a Grandmaster in Daoist and Martial Dual Cultivation, such little tricks were effortless for him.

The Empress bit her lip, lamenting, "But you can’t behave so brazenly in front of Zhu’er... What do you take me for?"

"A treasure," Chen Mo replied earnestly.

The Empress didn’t react immediately, "What kind of treasure?"

"Didn’t Your Highness ask me what I take you for?" Chen Mo leaned closer to her pink earlobe and whispered, "I take Your Highness as my darling treasure."

"..."

The Empress shivered.

Goosebumps formed under her palace gown.

"Pfft, what darling treasure, saying such cheesy things aloud?" The Empress’s cheeks seemed ignited like fire, she thumped resentfully.

This person’s skin is thicker than the walls of the Imperial Palace!

"It’s not that I wanted to act recklessly, mainly because I haven’t seen Your Highness these days, and I missed you fiercely... Emotions were hard to restrain, hence my actions, hope Your Highness doesn’t mind." Chen Mo explained.

Earlier he was full of sweet words, now suddenly serious...

The Empress snorted a little, "I won’t bicker with you this time, but be mindful of the occasions, at least when there are others present, don’t act recklessly..."

Chen Mo nodded, asking, "Did Your Highness miss me?"

The Empress shyly replied, "A little bit..."

"How much is a little?" Chen Mo pursued.

"Around this much." The Empress lifted her elegant hand, pinching her thumb and index finger.

"Only this little? Seems like I’m not that important to Your Highness."

Chen Mo’s eyes dimmed, he sighed, "Afraid Your Highness would worry, I hurried here as soon as I arrived in Capital City, didn’t even return home first. Turns out I was just being nosy."

Looking at his disappointed face, the Empress felt a bit anxious, hastily changing her tone, "I was speaking nonsense earlier, actually... it’s this much!"

She opened her arms wide, gesturing a large circle.

Chen Mo shook his head, "Please don’t comfort me, Your Highness."

"What I said is true!"

The Empress, to prove herself, boldly grabbed his hand and placed it on her ample chest, "Feel my sincerity, really didn’t deceive you! I couldn’t sleep well these days, with your image each time I closed my eyes, fearing you’d be captured by the Demon Clan!"

"..."

Chen Mo’s throat moved.

Such a big heart!

But the location seems a bit off...

"Your Highness, the heart should be on the left side,"

"Oh."

The Empress moved his hand from the right to the left side.

Feeling the intense heartbeat beneath the softness, Chen Mo’s gaze softened a bit, he smiled saying, "I was teasing Your Highness, indeed, you’re very adorable."

"You annoying ghost, always frightening me."

The Empress glared at him, frowning, "Moreover, ’adorable’ is for kids, I’m of an age where I don’t match those words at all..."

Chen Mo shook his head, "Your Highness is at an age as lovely as a blossoming flower, tender enough to squeeze water out, never underestimate yourself."

This is indeed true, tender indeed, squeezing water is also true...

"Humph, I don’t believe your nonsense."

Despite saying this, the Empress’s eyes sparkled brightly, leaning softly without bones in his embrace... Chen Mo’s mouth curled up, Empress Baby remains as hypocritical as ever!

The reason for his "recklessness" in front of Lin Jingzhu, was due partly to noticing the Empress’s low mood, not wishing to neglect her, and partly for his own hidden agenda.

Although he and Lin Jingzhu had met the elders and clarified their feelings, ultimately there was still the Empress to face.

Chen Mo didn’t want to abandon either side, but this matter couldn’t be hidden forever. Since the cards would be laid on the table sooner or later, might as well let her "adapt" now, consider it a desensitization training...

Things like boundaries are gradually lowered step by step.

The Empress initially resisted his friskiness, yet now allows him whatever he pleases?

With her heart being grasped, her body went weak, thinking of Zhu’er just beside, her heart pounded up to her throat.

Nervousness mixed with an indescribable strange feeling...

"Little thief, what happened these days? Why did you delay returning this long?" Steered by distraction, the Empress spoke, suppressing her palpitations.

"Upon hearing Chu Heng escaped prison, I chased eastwards, however, there were indeed complications." Chen Mo spoke sternly, "Chu Heng managed to escape the Imperial Prison because the Demon Lord’s Divine Sense was hidden inside him already, and upon my arrival, used Chu Heng’s flesh as a medium to manifest..."
