521 Human Emperor & Ultimate Strength (2/2)

”Pow!” He was met with a big, red pillow.

”Wife, don't be angry. I - your husband - am here to talk to you about a serious matter!”

”A serious matter?! What kind of serious matter did you come to me for?!” Yan Yunfei shouted angrily. Obviously, she was still pissed from the night before.

”Hehe, what else other than about our old father-in-law?!” Zhou Bao leaned towards her with a smile on his face while holding the second pillow to avoid it from being thrown.

”Wife, did your father, His Excellency, write to you recently?!”

”Royal Father?!” Yan Yunfei froze. Then, she looked at him with an eccentric gaze. ”How did you know? A letter from Royal Father did come yesterday, saying that he wants to meet you. I was worried that you'll feel troubled, so I didn't tell you!”

”Haha, so this is the legendary saying 'Daughters married away are like water carried away,' favoring an outsider instead of someone's own?!” said Zhou Bao as he heard that and laughed out loud.

”Screw you!” shouted Yan Yunfei as she heard that and blushed. She stretched out her hand, unconsciously wanting to give him a strong slap. However, the thought of what happened last night flashed through her brain, and she withdrew her hand. She stared harshly at Zhou Bao and could not stop herself from smiling. ”What dumb idea are you thinking of again?!”

”What do you mean by 'dumb idea'? I kept on hearing news about my father-in-law. I thought that according to his personality, he would come to me for such matters, so I'm just asking!”

”You are smart indeed, knowing that Royal Father will come to you. But it is not for sure that you will help him!”

”What do you mean by that? Since when do I not help Royal Father? Let me tell you, I might actually help Royal Father a lot this time!” Zhou Bao said assuredly. He might as well also tap on his chest as a sign of assurance.

”Really?!” Yan Yunfei was surprised by his sudden change in attitude. She looked at Zhou Bao in disbelief and said, ”What dumb idea are you thinking of again now!”

”Oh god, my dear wife. The injustice towards me is killing me! I only want to help you to do something out of filial piety, but you mistake my good intentions for ill intent! Forget it, forget it. This is hurting my pride. Let's not talk about it. I'm not giving a damn anymore!” Speaking of which, Zhou Bao turned around and walked away with a face of disappointment.

”Hey, wait!” Seeing Zhou Bao's pretense, Yan Yunfei did not know whether to be mad or laugh at it. ”Come back, stop acting!”

Zhou Bao turned around and smiled, trying to get on her good side. ”Wife, when His Highness father-in-law said he wanted to meet me, did he specify a time?!”

”He didn't give any details, but from what I could read between the lines, it seems to be as soon as possible. Tell me, why does Royal Father want to see you so urgently to even hide the matter from his own daughter!” Yan Yunfei's voice was filled with dissatisfaction and jealousy.

”From what I can tell, it isn't anything big, but its just connected to too many other things. Even if he wants to tell you, it's not convenient for him to mention it in the letter. If you really want to know, why don't you go with me to Jing?!”

”To Jing?” Yan Yunfei was sold for just a moment and then laughed bitterly. ”I'll pass this time. After both kids are bigger, we'll bring them there, also making Royal Father happy!”

Mentioning their children, even the space between Yan Yunfei's eyebrows was joyful. Unexpectedly, Zhou Bao laughed sinisterly. ”Who knows if you'll be pregnant and unable to walk by then!”

”Screw you!” Now, Yan Yunfei was really annoyed, but she still feared the eccentric status of Zhou Bao's body. After taming her anger, she touched him gently. She found a Green Sheath Dagger on his body and mercilessly stabbed it into his body.

”Isn't this a Divine Weapon! Wife, you're really intending to murder your own husband!” Zhou Bao screeched and dodged.

”Right, today I want to murder my husband. What's wrong with that!” Yan Yunfei shouted and ran towards Zhou Bao while still holding onto the sword...

Jin, West Capital, Royal Capital.

The evening breeze blew like a mournful zither under the setting sun. In the midst of this evening breeze, Yan Yuntian stood before the extremely big window of the Imperial Study. There was some harshness in the middle of this quite breeze, but he did not bother about this very cooling breeze. Looking at the sun setting in the west, he murmured to himself, ”It's coming soon, it's coming soon!”
