Don't mess with my lady!

"You...you...you! I've had enough of you. Just go back, no one here welcomes you!" Han Xiling's face turned red with anger as she lashed out at Xia Zhiqing.

Xia Zhiqing, being Baili Hongzhuang's good friend, felt the need to stand up for her. She believed that being subtle with Han Xiling wouldn't yield any results, so she decided to confront her directly. Xia Zhiqing couldn't bear to see Han Xiling's presence any longer.

Han Xiling had never been spoken to like this before in her life, and she didn't know how to respond. She looked towards Emperor Beichen, not caring about the opinions of Baili Hongzhuang and the others. All she cared about was Emperor Beichen's thoughts.

However, Emperor Beichen didn't console her as she had hoped. Instead, his words lacked any hint of affection.

"Miss Xia is absolutely right. I am already married to Hongzhuang. If you continue like this, it will easily lead to misunderstandings and upset my wife. I don't want to upset my wife, so I hope you and I can keep our distance. That would be best."

Emperor Beichen's expression was indifferent, and his words carried his devotion to Baili Hongzhuang. He had never been a fickle person, and having Baili Hongzhuang in his life was more than enough for him.

From Baili Hongzhuang's test in the ruins, he had already realized many things. In the past, he had always seen Han Xiling as proud and aloof, someone who wouldn't bother others. But this time, Han Xiling was clearly intentionally causing trouble for Hongzhuang.

He believed that Baili Hongzhuang wasn't someone who would casually provoke others. Since she had brought this up, she must have discovered some problems.

He didn't want the situation to escalate to a point of no return, so he needed to clarify everything now. Such an attitude would also reassure his wife.

Seeing Emperor Beichen's response, Han Xiling's face grew increasingly dark. She noticed the mocking gazes from Xia Zhiqing and the others, which only fueled her anger.

"Emperor, this woman is not worthy of you. Sooner or later, you will return to the Tian Gang Sect!" Han Xiling exclaimed.

With those words spoken, Han Xiling no longer paid any attention to Baili Hongzhuang and the others. She turned and ran forward, clearly intending to leave.

"Finally, she's gone," Xia Zhiqing sighed. "If I hadn't exploded, who knows when this woman would have left!"

Dongfang Yu silently raised his thumb to Xia Zhiqing. He admired her straightforward actions.

Although Gong Shaoqing didn't express his agreement as explicitly as Dongfang Yu, his slight nod indicated his approval of the situation.

Emperor Beichen shifted his gaze towards Baili Hongzhuang and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips as he asked, "My wife, are you satisfied with my behavior?"

To him, nothing was more important than Baili Hongzhuang.

Baili Hongzhuang shrugged her shoulders. "It's alright. This trouble was caused by you in the first place."

Emperor Beichen's smile widened. "My generous wife, I promise that such things will not happen again in the future. How about that?"
