Chapter 1151 (A Good Day Tomorrow)
Ye Hua took out a cigarette and lit it. “Before, we only encountered the Prime Yang Mansion from the Ancient Land. It seems that some people still don’t believe in this. They only sent half their people. And the Soul River, it seems we need to teach them a lesson tomorrow.”
“Yes, Your Majesty! Everything has been arranged properly and will surely intimidate these people,” Zi Shan was also very excited, and tomorrow would be a day to witness the strength of the Voidless Empire.
“I don’t want intimidation; I want them to fear!” Ye Hua said in a deep voice.
Zi Shan lowered her head and shouted softly, “Yes!”
“Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, the subordinate will leave now,” Zi Shan said in a low voice.
Ye Hua flicked the cigarette ash and said softly, “Wait.”
“Is there anything else, Your Majesty?”
“I heard that you and that boy Yi Hong had a disagreement again?” Ye Hua turned slowly, curious.
Zi Shan lowered her head, bit her lip gently, and did not speak.
Ye Hua looked up at the night sky of the Voidless Empire, with twinkling stars instantly becoming beautiful. He said slowly, “Zi Shan, when I played matchmaker for you back then, I did it with a sense of gratitude.”
“Lu Hong and Yi Hong went through great lengths to bring Ah Li back to my side. This is what I owe them. Lu Hong is like an older brother, a bit hot-tempered. Yi Hong is straightforward and honest. Matching you with Yi Hong, an honest person, should have been a perfect thing. However, so many years have passed.”
“I found that Yi Hong is still too honest. Even after gaining power, he remains the same. Zi Shan, you are a deity, and you have your dominance. But no matter what, Yi Hong is still a man. Couples should respect each other.” Ye Hua sighed lightly, earnestly lecturing others while realising his own situation.
Zi Shan remained silent after hearing this.
“Your wedding was supposed to be officiated by this deity. It would have been quite nice. But now, it doesn’t feel right. A forced marriage is never sweet. If you two can’t make it work, then just part ways. This deity won’t stand in your path,” Ye Hua said softly, this time not pretending but speaking earnestly.
If they feared him, well, now they had his word. They could go their separate ways and live the lives they desired.
Zi Shan trembled at his words. Divorce? It was something she had never considered.
Though she often scolded Yi Hong, she had never once thought of divorcing him. Where else could she find a man who allowed her to berate him and then came to console her? The next one would be gentler? That was a lie, a non-existent fantasy.
“Your arrangements back then, Your Majesty, were the luckiest thing to ever happen to me. I will not leave this marriage,” Zi Shan stated firmly.
Ye Hua nodded upon hearing her response. “Your personal matters are not for this deity to be overly involved in. Handle it as you see fit.”
“Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. You have been most considerate.”
“Go rest now. It’s been a long day, and there’s much to do tomorrow.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
As Zi Shan left, Ye Hua also decided to retire for the night. Tomorrow would be a good day; one could tell from the faint stars in the sky.
Walking along the palace avenue, Zi Shan furrowed her brows tightly, pondering over Ye Hua’s words. Unconsciously, she found herself standing outside the bedchamber.
Late as it was, she assumed Yi Hong would already be asleep. She glanced at the adjacent small room.
Recently, the couple had been sleeping in separate rooms. Zi Shan slept on the big bed, while Yi Hong slept in the small room. The cold war between them continued.
Zi Shan pursed her lips, stood outside the small room, and gently pushed the door open.
Yi Hong also hadn’t gone to sleep, waiting for Zi Shan to return, worried if she didn’t come back.
But today, Zi Shan unexpectedly entered his room. What’s going on?
Yi Hong was a bit puzzled. Was she going to scold him again? Even after a quarrel, she still wanted to scold him? He couldn’t bear it.
However, Yi Hong didn’t hear any quarrelling; instead, he heard faint sounds, as if someone was undressing.
What was Zi Shan trying to do? Force herself on him again! Didn’t she consider his feelings even though she wanted a child?
It seemed like this forcing had happened more than once or twice, leaving Yi Hong traumatised.
Suddenly, Yi Hong felt a warm body slipping into the blanket, hugging him tightly.
At that moment, Yi Hong was stunned. This feeling was so subtle, as if he had just started dating Zi Shan.
Neither of them spoke, and the air carried a hint of ambiguity, along with the sound of their heartbeats.
After a while, Zi Shan whispered, “Husband, I’m sorry, I was wrong.”
Yi Hong felt a ringing in his ears. Zi Shan was apologising voluntarily? What was going on?
This extraordinary and powerful wife was actually apologising. It felt like a dream.
“Husband, please forgive me. I won’t force you to have a child anymore. Let nature take its course.” Zi Shan had just realised this. If she kept pushing Yi Hong, they might end up divorcing.
“Really?” Yi Hong was also very happy. Zi Shan had finally come to her senses.
“Yes.” Zi Shan replied softly, nestling in Yi Hong’s embrace. In these years, she had pressed too hard, and she hadn’t given Yi Hong any face.
“Husband, I won’t scold you anymore. I’ll love you well from now on.”
Yi Hong was moved and almost wanted to cry. Zi Shan had finally become sensible. It was not easy. What kind of shock did she experience to say such things? It was truly magical.
Sometimes, couples should express their love for each other. It would make the other person feel happy. If one-sided expression continued for a long time, problems would surely arise.
Love should be spoken out loud.
“Yes.”
“Husband, will you continue to cherish me as you did before?” Zi Shan said with a coquettish tone. This Zi Shan made Yi Hong sigh. She had turned from a fierce tiger into a little kitten.
Yi Hong hugged Zi Shan tightly. “Yes, forever unchanged.”
“Husband, you’re really good.”
Comfortable. Yi Hong felt so comfortable.
“Husband~”
“Yeah, what’s wrong?”
“It’s been a long time since we’ve been intimate.”
“Ah!” Yi Hong exclaimed, will this be forceful as before?
“In the past, it was always for the purpose of having a child, but from today on, it’s not. This is my expression of love.”
Yi Hong didn’t quite understand. She came up with such profound reasoning.
But when the wife has needs, should the husband refuse? Moreover, today Zi Shan has already compromised a bit.
On this side, happiness ensued.
Meanwhile, Ye Juetian was not happy. He felt lost and knew he had let Yi Yi down, leaving her alone in the woodshed, suffering.
As a man, he felt like a complete failure!
However, in the small room, Gong Yue slept peacefully. Tomorrow she will end her problems.
