Chapter 89 - Mea Culpa (1/2)

Lei Xing rested her head on her hand and knit her brows.

{...I get that part, I'm not an idiot -_-)...And why do you care?...}

{...*I'm bored and you're annoying...}

{...(◔_◔)...}

{...*He must be an idiot too to have fallen for someone horrible like you...You must have tricked him into it, right? And now that you have him, you don't care anymore. Horrible!...}

Lei Xing frowned in annoyance.

{...To think I was actually feeling a bit bad about being mean to you. What do you know? He trapped me here! And ”fallen for me”? Bullshit! He must be the kind that enjoys the chase process and so only focuses on one person at a time. Once he's done with me, he'll move on to the next person. That's the way of life in the palace. So why the hell do I have to indulge him?!...}

{...*...}

No response. Lei Xing was actually glad for its silence this time and she went on to play her turn.

{...*You live in the palace?...}

{...Yeah...}

{...*One of that bra- Emperor's wives?...}

{...Technically, yes...}

Another stretch of silence.

{...*Then how come you are so horrible?... Well, I guess he's never really had good taste...}

{...-_-)...}

{...*But when did Xiao Ying become friends wi - Wait, which palace are you in?...}

{...We're not exactly friends -_-)...}

{...*I asked where your palace is?!...}

{...In the capital...}

{...*Capital?...Long country?!..}

{...Yes...}

{...*THAT - !!...}

Lei Xing frowned.

{...Honestly! Why do you like screaming so much?! It's annoying!...}

{...*YOU BRAT! YOU BETTER NOT DO ANYTHING DISRESPECTFUL TO THIS BRACELET. IF YOU DO, YOU WILL PAY A HUNDRED, NO, A THOUSANDFOLD, UNDERSTAND?!!!...}

The amplified scream shocked Lei Xing and she clutched her forehead and closed her eyes in pain. The Emperor looked up and asked, ”Is something wrong?”

”My head's just hurting a bit.” Lei Xing absentmindedly responded.

{...Is this thing is trying to give me brain damage?...}

The Emperor ordered the servants to send for an Imperial doctor. He looked at Lei Xing who was still clutching her head and frowning, then poured a cup of tea, put it in front of her, ”Here.”

Lei Xing glanced at him and picked up the cup and took a sip.

”Does this happen often since your accident?” The Emperor asked.

”En, now and then.” Lei Xing responded closing her eyes again.
