Chapter 222 - Old Cucumber (1) (2/2)
“Why?” Mo Rongzhan creased his eyebrows as he asked
This girl was beyond his understanding To say she sought no fa the Medical Academy and wished to be an Ily, tiirl yearned and fought to grab
Why? Ha! What does it matter to him! For a split second she was teh for today She did not wish to bury herself deep, not yet, least of all alone
“I do not desire to marry now Moreover, why must I do it to enter the palace?” said she, “Besides, the likes of you can never understand the beauty of being a couple for a lifeti the old” Ye Zhen smiled, while her limpid eyes looked on in ridicule
She was such a person She had a deep sense of justice and e, all the way to the end, never once wavering Or, she would never love at all She had always found the notion of the world she was in hypocritical and refused to bon to it A woe her heart and soul to her man, while he was allowed to “share” his love without any qualms Was it so difficult for aa husband who lays doith other women… she would rather not marry at all!</ezhan wanted to laugh at those words However, when he sa serious she was, he clenched his teeth and pressed his lips together instead The sradually faded, his hand around her waist gently loosened
Ye Zhen didn’t waste a moment to push him away, took several steps back, and eyed him warily She had clenched her fist on her sides, ready to pounce if necessary
Mo Rongzhan had an indescribable emotion in his heart Her words… her actions just then, somewhere in the deep crevices of his heart, he felt an inexplicable pain What she sought, was the very thing he could not give He was unsure if it was because of an eive, he could not
He soon brushed aside his sentiments and snapped back to reality After a orized this requirement as what it should be: absurd
“Lu Yaoyao, you know this idea is not realistic Allthree wives and four concubines” He was surprised by his oords, as he trying to appease her?!
“Not all men do” Ye Zhen replied softly She believed this had more to do with intent than the societal norms Should a man put his foot down and commit himself to just one woman, who could stop him?
“What if you can’t find one?” He countered
Ye Zhen just s obvious “Your Majesty, how many women in the capital do you think have looks comparable to mine? Since I am already the best, ould choose those who are worse than ht he could de tree She ell aware of her worth, and needed nobefore her
Mo Rongzhan’s ht of how some men would taste her sweetness in the future He was unreconciled His childishness got the better of him
“What if… I command you enter the palace?
He was the emperor, who on earth could defy him? If he wanted her, then no one could stop him and no man could have her
“I would rather die”
