As long as she could take the throne of the empress and give birth to a royal son, her son would become the king and she would be the king’s mother forever.
With supreme power, she wouldn’t have to be afraid of not being able to find a man.
Shen Wanxin’s expression was a little stiff, but it was only for a moment. She quickly regained her confidence and said, “Your Majesty, don’t worry. I can fulfill all these conditions. I can agree to them.”
“why?”
Huangfu Xuanye wanted to know if a woman was willing to stay by a man’s side only because of his power.
“Because… because I’ve always loved you, Your Majesty…”
Shen Wanxin mustered her courage and confessed. What she said was the truth. She was not afraid of being surveyed by the king.
Huangfu Xuanye did not say anything, He stared at her silently for a while and nodded. “Okay. Then prepare yourself. You might have to marry me in a few days.”
Shen Wanxin was overjoyed, but she did not show much joy on her face. She pretended to be shy and nodded. “I understand, Your Majesty. I will abide by your arrangements.”
Ever since Huangfu Xuanye returned to the country, Ying Bao had been focusing on her studies every day. She had really put in a lot of effort to compete with Yi Rourou.
She was eager to learn and did not forget to participate in the rehearsal at the drama club.
Tang Feimo often came to look for her. He could feel the change in Ying Bao. In the past, she would often skip class to come and look for him, but she had never skipped class during this period of time.
In the past, whenever she read, she would feel sleepy. But now, whenever Ying Bao and Tang Feimo met, she would not forget to bring her books with her. She would read even while eating.
Tang Feimo felt that there was something wrong with Ying Bao. He asked, “Cherry, are you okay recently? Why did you suddenly fall in love with studying?”
Ying Bao replied without even raising her head, “I must study hard and surpass that Yi Rourou. I must let her see that I’m better than her!”
Tang Feimo finally realized that she was competing with her classmate.
That was good too. Her parents wouldn’t have to worry about her not studying hard enough.
“When is your performance?” Tang Feimo asked as he intended to watch her performance when the time comes.
“T’s seven o’clock this Saturday at Mo City Theater.”
“Okay, I’ll cheer you on.”
“Yes, Uncle said he’ll also be there to watch my performance,” Ying Bao added.
Tang Feimo did not say anything. He was very grateful to Huangfu Xuanye for letting Ying Bao go.
He had already obtained some information about the Northern Kingdom through certain channels. He heard that after Huangfu Xuanye returned to the country, he would choose a marriage partner across the country.
Ying Bao probably didn’t know about this yet. If she did, what would she think?
Tang Feimo did not divulge anything for the time being. He would wait until Huangfu Xuanye came to the Dragon Kingdom and personally explain it to Ying Bao!
After a period of rehearsals, Ying Bao’s performance, Sleeping Beauty, was scheduled to take place at the big theater in Mo City.
That night, Huo Yunshen, Jing Xi, and the other children went to the theater in Mo City to watch Ying Bao’s performance.
Their family kept a low profile and had booked a private room on the second floor of the theater in advance.
Apart from them, Jing Xi also invited Ye Xun and Huo Sanyan’s family of four to watch the performance.
Both of Ye Xun’s children were about eight or nine years old. They were only one year apart from Strawberry. The three little kids could play together.
Little Apple and Little Grape were slightly older and quieter. They did not jump around like their siblings.
The two families waited for a long time. When it was about time, a host went on stage to announce the start of tonight’s performance.
