Looking at Ki Chien-chul's serious expression, Wei Ziyao chose to believe him. Most importantly … he didn't seem to have any reason to lie to her.
"Alright, it seems like you guys haven't consummated yet. Ruier feels that her position is unstable and is anxious."
Women in the harem would resort to any means to fight for a man.
"But …" She scrutinized Ki Chien-chul. "Royal Highness, are you sure you really love Ruier?"
Hearing this question, Ki Chien-chul felt an indescribable shock in his heart. For so many years, no one had seen through it. Could it be that Wei Ziyao had seen through it?
"Why do you say that?" Ki Chien-chul asked.
"Nothing. I just feel that when you look at her, there's no love in your eyes. Also! How can a normal man not be interested in the woman he loves? I'm not slandering you men. From what I know, as long as a woman is good-looking, has a good figure, and is deliberately trying to be nice to you, men will be interested. "
At this point, Wei Ziyao looked up at Ki Chien-chul. Her gaze was unprecedentedly sharp.
"So, if you don't even have any reaction to Ruier, it can only mean that you don't even see her as a normal woman. You hate her in your heart!"
Wei Ziyao said in a confident tone as if she had seen through everything.
Ki Chien-chul looked at her with her head held high. Finally, he smiled and took a deep breath. He felt much more relaxed.
"This King has been making up this lie for so many years that even he was about to be fooled. I didn't expect you to see through it."
"Really? You don't love Ruier? "Wei Ziyao was surprised." Then what you did … was all an act? "
"Yes." Ki Chien-chul nodded. "Born in the royal family, everything is not simple. I knew from the beginning that Ruier was someone the Empress placed by my side."
"Then why did you accept her and marry her?"
"The reason why the Empress sent her here is to drag me down and not let me fight for the throne. I don't want the throne, but Imperial Mother is in the palace after all. If I don't pretend to be bewitched by Ruier, do you think the Empress will let Imperial Mother go?"
"I didn't intend to implicate others, but Wei … You pestered me and insisted on getting involved. Now, everything is set in stone, and you've been dragged into it …"
"Wait!" Wei Ziyao hurriedly called out to Ki Chien-chul, "Royal Highness! Why don't you take this opportunity to divorce me? I won't beg you to marry me! I don't want to be dragged into this either. Just pretend that I don't know anything. Please do me a favor … "
"Don't even think about it!" Ki Chien-chul looked at Wei Ziyao with disdain. "This King married two women in total. One of them got close to him with ulterior motives, and the other one was divorced. If this spreads out, where will This King put his face?"
"Then marry another one. If you marry another one, divorce me!"
"Wei Ziyao! You! "Ki Chien-chul felt that he would be angered to death by this woman sooner or later.
He felt a little touched just now because Wei Ziyao saw through him and let him finally relax. He finally had someone to confide in after hiding the secret for so long.
But just as his thumping heart started to warm up, it was doused with cold water.
"Why are you so fierce? Didn't you say that you're Royal Highness? You can sleep with whoever you want. You were so self-righteous, of course I had to give you a chance. "
"This King was so angry that he made a slip of the tongue. You said that when I woke up in the morning, I felt guilty that I didn't invite you to eat hot and sour noodles. When I turned around and saw Ruier lying next to me, I felt that something was wrong and ran to you to explain. This King didn't even listen and said that he was dirty. How can This King not be angry? It's reasonable for him to say something overboard. "
"According to what Royal Highness said, it's my fault?"
Isn't it your fault?!
But Ki Chien-chul didn't dare to say it. It was strange!
He had talked back to the Emperor when he was in the imperial court. He had broken into the enemy's camp alone. He had fought bloody battles and narrowly escaped death. He had experienced several times.
He never knew what fear was, but now he had to be careful when talking to a woman, afraid that she would be unhappy. Who could he reason with?!
