Chapter 2 It Seems I Have to Spare Her Life

The next second, Wen Fuyue's somewhat sarcastic inner thoughts came.

[Damn emperor, I'm starving. Summoning someone to accompany him at this hour. Hey! Isn't he impotent?]

Damn emperor? Impotent?

Wei Sinian was so infuriated by her inner thoughts that he let out a silent sneer. He subconsciously wanted to drag her out and behead her, but then he remembered the inner thoughts he had just heard. He took a deep breath and suppressed the killing intent in his heart. This woman knew a lot. He had to spare her life.

Wei Sinian's expression grew increasingly terrifying. He suppressed the killing intent that was about to burst out and said in a voice as cold as ice shards, "An Fu, serve the meal."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

An Fu left the palace in a hurry, as if he was fleeing. Wei Sinian cast a murderous look at Wen Fuyue, who had her head bowed.

Wen Fuyue: [Serve the meal! Did the emperor summon me just to have dinner? But it's not impossible. Isn't it said that his mood is unpredictable? Forget it. Why bother? Anyway, he won't harm me. I just wonder if the food here is delicious.]

[And what on earth is he up to? There's nothing left in the Wen family worth coveting. Maybe he's just bored. He can't possibly kill me, unless he doesn't want to be emperor anymore.]

The imperial concubine wasn't malicious. She was just simple and straightforward, but not as stupid as expected. She knew he wouldn't kill her, which was why she was so fearless. He wondered what was going on in this woman's head all day. Did she enter the palace just to eat?

Hearing Wen Fuyue's harmless inner thoughts, Wei Sinian's expression softened a bit. The killing intent in his eyes gradually faded, and he stared at the top of Wen Fuyue's head with a strange look on his face. All the concubines who entered the palace wanted the supreme favor. Everyone knew that.

Wei Sinian suddenly realized that he couldn't figure Wen Fuyue out.

Wen Fuyue: [It's really strange. In the original plot, the second male lead and the second female lead didn't seem to have any interaction. Wei Sinian never summoned the second female lead even once before he died. What's going on?]

Hearing her inner thoughts, Wei Sinian's mind went blank for a moment. He was stunned by the information in her words.

He looked down at his somewhat pale hands. His breathing became more and more rapid, and a faint blush suddenly appeared on his originally pale face. How did Concubine Wen know all this? Who on earth was she?

He heard her inner thoughts. Maybe Concubine Wen would lie, but she definitely didn't know that he could hear them. So were they all true? Thinking this way, Wei Sinian got up and walked towards Wen Fuyue.

He sized up Wen Fuyue, who had been kneeling on the ground since she entered the room, in silence. His face was gloomy. Wei Sinian felt a bit strange. The look in his eyes became sharper and sharper. The next second, he couldn't help but let out a silent sneer.

According to what Concubine Wen knew about the future, he was going to die? Was that why she wasn't interested in him at all? What about now? After knowing this, could he avoid his fate through her?

And why could he hear her inner thoughts but not others'?

Wen Fuyue knelt on the ground motionlessly. Her lips were slightly pursed, and she silently stared at the floor tiles, looking respectful and focused.

If Wei Sinian couldn't hear her inner thoughts, he would definitely have been deceived by her obedient appearance.

Wen Fuyue: [Has the damn emperor forgotten about me! Why doesn't he tell me to get up? My legs hurt so much! I've been living a comfortable life recently. Kneeling for so long all of a sudden is really uncomfortable. Hey, life is getting harder and harder.]

Damn emperor? Wei Sinian took a deep breath and frowned subconsciously. He wanted to order someone to drag this audacious woman out.

Forget it. Thinking that he could hear her inner thoughts and learn some interesting things, Wei Sinian swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue again and said to her calmly, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wen Fuyue staggered a bit before standing up. She felt as if her legs were about to break after kneeling for just a few minutes.

While Wei Sinian was looking down, she couldn't help but quickly rub her sore knees.

Wei Sinian glanced at Wen Fuyue again, whose thoughts were almost written all over her face. He felt annoyed for some reason and walked wordlessly to the outer hall, leaving Wen Fuyue standing there blankly.

Wen Fuyue looked at Wei Sinian's back and hesitated for a moment.

[What is Wei Sinian doing? Why did he leave suddenly? Where should I go next? Follow him? No. I'd better stay here. I'll wait until he calls me. Anyway, the less I do, the fewer mistakes I'll make.]

Thinking of this, Wen Fuyue obediently lowered her head and stood there.

After getting away from Wen Fuyue, Wei Sinian suddenly felt the voice in his ear disappear. He felt uncomfortable for some reason, and his idea of making her leave changed.

He originally just wanted to summon Wen Fuyue to take a look. Now it seemed better to keep her here. Even if he didn't try to get information from her, he could still find some amusement.

The calm look on his face instantly turned cold again. He impatiently lifted the hem of his robe and sat down at the table. Then he said to Wen Fuyue, who was standing there motionless, "Does the imperial concubine want me to invite you?"

Feeling the coldness and killing intent in Wei Sinian's tone, Wen Fuyue trembled and quickly trotted over.

[Something's wrong. Why is the emperor suddenly angry!]

Unfortunately, Wen Fuyue forgot that she was wearing high - heeled shoes. Just as she reached the table, she rushed forward due to inertia.

In front of her was...

[Help! I'm doomed! Ah!]

The next second, Wen Fuyue fell onto Wei Sinian's body in despair, her eyes wide open. Her lower abdomen was hit hard by Wei Sinian's knee, and the pain made her shed tears involuntarily. For a moment, she couldn't get up from Wei Sinian's lap.

When he heard her inner thoughts, Wei Sinian planned to dodge, but for some reason, he didn't move. He just sat there waiting for Wen Fuyue to fall.

Since he could hear her inner thoughts when he was close to Wen Fuyue, what if he had direct contact with her?

Feeling the warmth in his arms and the suddenly louder inner thoughts, Wei Sinian couldn't help but rub his sore temples. He looked down at the woman in his arms. He who had always hated women getting close to him didn't push Wen Fuyue away. Instead, he just stared at her motionlessly.

There was no change. It seemed that he could only hear her inner thoughts. Wei Sinian felt a bit disappointed and stared intently at the woman in his arms.

He had to keep her. Looking at her, Wei Sinian was filled with excitement at knowing the future. A hint of madness unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

Tears welled up in the woman's eyes. She looked weak and pitiful. Her hands unconsciously pressed on Wei Sinian's legs as she tried to get up, but she slipped down again due to the pain. Hearing her painful inner thoughts, Wei Sinian laughed maliciously.

[It hurts so much. Wuwuwu, my stomach. Is he made of iron? It hurts so much. I can't take it anymore! It really hurts. I don't have the strength to get up! It hurts. Who can help me?]

[He's still laughing! I'll remember this! Is he crazy!]

Wen Fuyue felt like she had seen a ghost. Hearing the sneering laughter above her head, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and tried to get up.

The next second, Wen Fuyue got up too quickly. Her head hit the table, and she fell back into Wei Sinian's arms.

Looking at the woman in his arms who was about to curse, a hint of playfulness appeared in Wei Sinian's eyes. He slowly reached out his hand to help her up and said, "My love, there's no need for such a grand salute. Get up quickly."

"Your Majesty, the dinner is here."

An Fu's trembling voice came. The playfulness on Wei Sinian's face instantly disappeared. He felt a bit annoyed and withdrew his gaze from Wen Fuyue.

His face turned cold again.

[Is the damn emperor angry again? I'm so done with him. Is he like the sky outside, changing whenever he wants? But I'm really hungry. It was too hot at noon today, and I didn't eat much. Now that I smell the food, it smells so good!]

"Humph."

Wei Sinian looked at Wen Fuyue, who was standing there rubbing her stomach, and couldn't help but let out a sneer out of anger.

What a great imperial concubine. He helped her up, but she didn't even show any gratitude. She kept calling him the damn emperor. And as soon as she smelled the food, she forgot everything.

Fine. Since that was the case, don't blame him for being rude.

Wei Sinian said calmly to An Fu, "An Fu, serve the meal."

"Yes."

After Wen Fuyue sat down, she looked at the food on the table expectantly and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

[It smells so good! No wonder it's the emperor's food. I'm in for a treat today. Great!]

A treat? It seemed that Wen Fuyue had overestimated his tolerance. Even if he didn't want to harm her now, he wouldn't let her live in peace.

Wei Sinian picked up his chopsticks slowly and then looked at Wen Fuyue.

Just as Wen Fuyue was about to start eating, she felt Wei Sinian's cold gaze and froze in place.

What's going on? Why is he looking at me?
