Chapter 251: The Horror in the Eyes of Everyone

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

The next day, when Ke Ruan woke up, he immediately sat up. When he saw that the surroundings were still familiar, he breathed a sigh of relief in silence.

When he relaxed, he felt that he was tired out. This was the feeling he had never had before.

He wanted to throw back the covers and get up, but when he moved, he felt every muscle in his body aching. The muscles of Ke Ruan’s face kept twitching.

Not to mention that he was getting up now, just a move was killing him.

So he simply gave up and lay down.

He never would have thought that Lin Jingsheng would suddenly become like this. It wasn’t until now did he know that she was actually interested in him, a cannon fodder, instead of the male lead.

It seemed that the male lead wasn’t charmful enough.

He sighed and shook his head.

The person outside the door seemed to hear something astir in the bedroom. He quickly knocked on the door and asked, “Your Majesty, have you gotten up?”

Ke Ruan said, “I…”

He couldn’t even articulate a single syllable. His throat seemed to be blocked by the cotton, and Ke Ruan’s eyes were filled with horror.

He gave dry coughs for a moment before he could slowly make the sharp sound like a duck.

Ke Ruan listened to his voice and became depressed. ‘What the hell did I experience last night? Why does my voice become like this?’

The guards outside the door hadn’t heard Ke Ruan’s voice for a long time, so they didn’t dare to speak anymore. After such a big deal last night, it was also good for the Empress to not know about it that he could have fewer troublesome matters to take care of.

When he thought about Lin Jingsheng, Ke Ruan remembered the letter again. It was theoretically possible that Lin Jingsheng had been scheming it for a long time, and therefore how much credibility did the letter have?

After thinking about it, Ke Ruan was still worried. He still had to talk with Si Yuhan about the matter. He wanted to ask clearly what was going on.

He struggled to throw back the covers and prepared to get out of bed. He looked sidelong at the bright yellow bed and his fair face instantly turned bright red. He immediately looked away.

So, he understood why his body seemed to have been dismantled and reassembled, and then taken apart again. Si Yuhan was really inhumane.

Ke Ruan got dressed silently and let the palace maids come in to clear up. He washed his face casually and didn’t want to take a shower for the matter of his sister was the most important.

Ke Ruan, who had planned to run to Si Yuhan’s place and almost knelt down after just two steps, quickly asked people to prepare the sedan chair of the Empress. He was really unable to walk.

Ke Ruan, who was going to leave in a hurry, did not notice the strange expressions of the palace maids. Of course, most of them felt shy. They did not dare to look at him after a glance and quickly lowered their heads.

As for the reason, if someone else saw the appearance of the Empress, which was then known by His Majesty, they would all be killed.

But this time, when they arrived at the imperial study, the guards didn’t respectfully let Ke Ruan pass but stood in front of Ke Ruan.

But after he glanced at Ke Ruan, he immediately lowered his head. “Your Majesty, His Majesty has important matters to discuss. Please return to your palace first.”

Ke Ruan didn’t think much about it. Since Si Yuhan was engaged, he should talk about his sister’s thing after he dealt with the important business first.

In his heart, he finally still preferred to trust Si Yuhan. After thinking for a while, he felt he was too hasty yesterday that he just rushed to her palace without finding out anything and made himself so embarrassed.
