That Girl Had Stood Him Up

The Empress and his Master had only been married for a few days and slept in the same bed only a handful of times. Yet, the Empress had left him alone to return to her natal home. She had chosen to stay overnight at the medicinal shop, which raised a fair amount of curiosity.

If he were to deliver the message to his master about the Empress not returning tonight, would his master vent all his anger onto him instead?

Chu Yi sneered when he thought of this.

That rascal, Zhao Qian, knew that this was not going to be an easy message to deliver, which was why Zhao Qian wanted to use him instead.

Was he that stupid?

Zhao Qian wanted Chu Yi to take the fall.

What a good plan Zhao Qian had set up!

Chu Yi was about to storm off in anger when he saw Chu Qi approach slowly from inside.

When he saw how relaxed and casual Chu Qi was acting, he suddenly felt his right eye begin to throb.

That little rascal!
