Chapter 984: Her Heartache for Him
Su Ge tried her best to suppress the churning emotions in her heart.
All of this was the fault of the Su family.
Yet, he had to bear such a huge responsibility.
Based on her understanding of him, he wouldn’t easily get married unless it was absolutely necessary.
Su Ge lowered her eyes, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
She had harmed him.
After an unknown period of time, she heard herself ask in a hoarse voice,” Who is the marriage alliance with?”
Nangong Yao extended his long fingers and lifted Su Ge’s small chin. Their gazes intertwined.
He was deep.
She was gloomy.
Nangong Yao’s thin lips moved, and his voice was deep and hoarse.” Su Ge, would you care?”
Hearing his words, Su Ge’s chest was filled with sorrow.
Did she care?
How could she not care?
No matter how much she denied it, deep in her heart, she still had a place in his heart.
However, what right did she have to care?
It was her father who had caused the situation to turn out like this.
Su Ge slapped his hand away from her chin and turned her head with a complicated expression.” If it’s inconvenient to say, don’t say it.””
Nangong Yao’s tall body stood up and he took a few steps towards the door.” Princess Lia from Country R.”
Princess Lia from Country R?
A beautiful and noble face appeared in Su Ge’s mind.
She remembered that one year, she and Nangong Yao went to Country R for a visit. At that time, Princess Lia had just come of age. This year, she was only 21 or 22 years old. She was like a delicate flower, young and beautiful.
Su Ge couldn’t tell what kind of feeling she had in her heart. It was especially uncomfortable.
However, she could not show it on her face. She smiled bitterly.” Then, congratulations.””
Nangong Yao’s large palm in his pocket suddenly tightened into a fist.
He pursed his thin lips tightly and did not say another word. He strode forward with his long legs and prepared to leave.
Su Ge finally couldn’t help but look up at him.
She didn’t notice it before, but now, she realized that the way he walked wasn’t as vigorous as usual.
When Nangong Yao was about to reach the door, Su Ge chased after him.
Her little white hand grabbed his arm.
“Wait!”
Nangong Yao glanced sideways at Su Ge.
“Is there anything else?”
Su Ge pursed her lips tightly. She walked to the man and raised her fingers to unbutton his shirt.
Seeing her actions, Nangong Yao frowned and immediately held her hand.
“Su Ge, what are you doing?”
Su Ge did not say anything. She unbuttoned the man’s shirt.
When she was stubborn, no one could resist her.
Nangong Yao watched helplessly as she took off his shirt.
Su Ge went around to look behind him.
Looking at his originally smooth back, the scars were crisscrossed. Although the wounds were all covered in shells, one could imagine how serious these whip wounds were. They must have been bloody and shocking.
These whip wounds almost covered his entire back.
Su Ge had been the queen for several years, so she naturally knew some of the rules of the royal family.
These injuries must have been caused by the Empress Dowager’s orders to flog him when he had violated the royal family’s ancestral rules while pleading for mercy for the Su family.
Although he was the king and had immense power, the king still had to abide by the laws of the royal family.
