Chapter 431: Chapter 177: Seizing the Situation! The Empress’ Baby’s First Experience with Exquisite Feet!_2
No wonder you are the arrest officer of the Six Gates, your depiction is so accurate.
Suddenly, Lin Jingzhu seemed to sense something, and with some curiosity, reached over and pinched gently.
"What is this, so hot..."
"Ahem, thermometer, the rising temperature means you’re overheated." Doctor Chen cleared his throat and said seriously.
Lin Jingzhu: ?
Knock knock knock——
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
The voice of a Palace Servant came from outside: "Miss Lin, are you up? His Highness invites you to the Imperial Kitchen for breakfast."
Lin Jingzhu suddenly woke up from her daze and responded, "Okay, I’ll be there shortly."
"Yes."
The Palace Servant responded and left.
By this time, the Chill Toxin was mostly purged, and Lin Jingzhu steamed away the moisture on her body.
Looking at the man she had longed for day and night in front of her, her heart was filled with the joy of regaining something lost, along with a hint of indescribable shyness.
"Thank you, hubby~"
"No problem, let’s arrange it for three days later then."
"Alright..."
Seeing her hesitating look, Chen Mo asked, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Lin Jingzhu lightly bit her lip, her expression a bit bashful, and murmured, "Can we... can we kiss again next time during the poison cleansing?"
Chen Mo: "..."
...
In the Dining Hall.
The table was filled with various delicious delicacies, and just the aroma made people’s mouth water.
Lin Jingzhu hadn’t eaten for days, her stomach was growling with hunger, but instead of devouring the food as usual, she chewed in small bites, exuding the demeanor of a sophisticated lady.
Chen Mo, on the other hand, sat upright, looking like a meditative monk.
The Empress sat in the main seat, her arms crossed and her phoenix eyes attentively watching the two of them.
After the absurd incident yesterday, she thought Chen Mo would leave on his own, but unexpectedly, he didn’t leave the room until dawn!
In other words, he spent the night with Zhu’er!
"Daring to kiss Zhu’er right in front of me, who knows what might happen when I’m not around!"
"This annoying little thief, eating from the bowl yet eyeing the pot!"
The more the Empress thought about it, the angrier she got, and she raised her foot to step on Chen Mo’s foot.
However, Chen Mo seemed to have anticipated this, and before her foot landed, he grabbed it with his hand.
?
The Empress struggled forcefully.
But those big hands were like iron clamps, completely unmoved.
Soon after, she felt her palace shoe being taken off, followed by her silk stocking being pulled off, and then a large hand gently rubbed her sole.
The Empress shivered, her cheeks blushing, glaring at Chen Mo with both shyness and anger.
But with Lin Jingzhu right there, she didn’t dare to show it, only using her eyes to threaten him to stop immediately.
Chen Mo, however, pretended not to see, playing with her Exquisite Feet under the table while comparing them with Her Majesty the Consort’s.
Compared to the slender arches of the Imperial Consort’s feet, Her Majesty the Empress’s feet were more rounded and cute, with skin as smooth as silk, and just the right amount of fleshiness.
Although not as exquisite as the Consort’s, they had their own unique charm.
Chen Mo held her ankle with one hand, while the other hand slowly moved up along her calf.
The Empress’s body trembled more and more intensely, her cheeks flushing a beautiful red.
Under the influence of her sense of shame, the tingling sensation seemed to be further amplified, and she couldn’t help but let out a soft moan:
"Mmm~"
Lin Jingzhu looked up in confusion, "Auntie, what’s wrong?"
Chen Mo timely released his hand, and the Empress, forcing a calm demeanor, said, "It’s nothing, my throat’s just a bit uncomfortable... I have some matters to handle, so I’ll take my leave first."
With that, she quietly put on her shoes and quickly got up to leave.
Afraid that if she stayed any longer, this little thief might do something even more absurd.
"Ahem, I’ve had enough too, it’s about time to check in at the Government, Lin Catcher, you take your time." Chen Mo cleared his throat and said, following the Empress out of the Dining Hall.
Watching his departing figure, Lin Jingzhu’s eyes showed a hint of confusion.
He didn’t even eat, yet he’s already full?
But she didn’t think much of it, assuming Chen Mo was just eager to return to the Government. Recalling the events just now, her face felt slightly warm.
"We’ve already kissed, so we probably aren’t just friends, right?"
"Then what exactly is our relationship now?"
...
The Empress walked out of the Dining Hall, passed through the palace corridors, and entered the inner hall.
The Palace Servants had already prepared tea and snacks, incense wafting up from a bronze incense burner.
The Empress waved her hand and said, "All of you, leave."
"Yes."
The Palace Servants responded and withdrew.
The Empress sat on a small couch, picked up a teacup from the table, lifted her head, and drank it all, a slight trace of anger on her cheeks.
"Hmph, this is driving me mad..."
"Which servant dared to offend your Highness so?"
At this moment, a familiar voice sounded next to her.
The Empress’s expression froze, then she snorted coldly, turning her head away, unwilling to acknowledge him.
Chen Mo smiled wryly, "Your Highness is still mad? It was out of my hands yesterday; to not expose Your Highness, I had to cooperate with Lin Catcher..."
The Empress clenched her teeth and said, "And what you did to me afterwards, was that also out of necessity? Dare to be so frivolous with me, and you even dared to touch me... You’re just awful!"
Chen Mo muttered softly, "But it was Your Highness who made the first move..."
"Are you saying this is my fault?" The Empress’s eyebrows furrowed and she coldly said, "Fine, let’s not discuss this for now, what about last night? You stayed with Zhu’er the whole night, what exactly did you do?"
Chen Mo shook his head and said, "Lin Catcher wouldn’t let go of me, she was exhausted, and slept deeply until dawn. Nothing happened."
"Really?" The Empress frowned.
She didn’t believe this little thief would be so well-behaved.
Chen Mo raised his right hand and said, "If I did anything inappropriate with Lin Catcher last night, may I be struck by lightning and meet a horrible end..."
