The sister who traveled through time wants to dominate the other world and become the empress!

Thunder roared and heavy rain ravaged the grass and trees outside the house.

Feeling the cold sweat between the man's palms, Xu An's heart was filled with waves, and he felt an indescribable meaning.

She opened her eyes slightly and secretly looked at Asu Pei Ye in the candlelight, only to see that he was frowning and closing his eyes, with a hint of panic between his brows.

This unfamiliar side of him confused Xu An's thoughts.

So strange…

How could such a morbidly arrogant man be so disturbed.

What has he been through?

Thinking of this, she retracted her small finger and her arm felt a little sore.

Asu Pei Ye quickly caught this slight movement. He opened his eyes and loosened his hand. Xu An closed his eyes tightly for fear of being discovered.

Soon, she felt her arm being slowly tucked back into the quilt. The man's movements were very slow and gentle, and he was extremely careful.

After a while, there seemed to be a fluffy thing leaning against the side of the bed. Then a cold hand gently grasped Xu An's four fingers, and then she only felt the slender fingers hooked with hers, as if... it was Asu Peiye's little finger.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw the arrogant man lying beside her bed, his little finger hooked with hers.

Suddenly, Xu An's heart started pounding.

This man...how did he become so "innocent"?

The two of them spent the night like this without disturbing each other. When the day gradually dawned, the noise of people coming and going outside the house was heard. Some were hawking their wares, some were playing the flute, and the bustle woke Xu An up.

She twisted her arms to sit up and looked around.

Where did Asu Pei Ye go?

The things in the house had been tidied up. Xu An opened the door and looked downstairs, but after a few glances he did not see the man.

I had just bought some food at the steamed stuffed buns shop outside the inn when I turned around and saw a sturdy figure walking towards the carriage in front.

Four men in exotic costumes were standing in front of the carriage. One could tell from their temperament that they were from the Western Regions.

As the few people moved sideways, Xu An tiptoed over, secretly leaning against the wall with a bun in his mouth, looking at the handsome guys.

Wow, this curly hair and this figure are so amazing.

Although the Western Regions in this world is different from that world, the clothing and attire are both so high-end.

"Have those people been cleaned up?"

"Return to Your Highness. The obstacles on the way have been cleared."

The man in front of him clenched his fist and put it in front of his shoulder, saluting and responding. The man who looked a little childish next to him clenched his fist and said, "Your Highness, is the crystal stone that can revive the queen growing?"

"My father asked you to ask?"

"The king has sent a message, and I dare not disobey."

"Tsk, my father really doesn't care about the life and death of the third prince like me. He only says this every time he passes on a message."

"Your Highness, when will we set off back to the Western Regions?"

"You wait here."

After saying that, the man lifted a strand of hair and twirled it behind him, then turned around with a complicated smile on his lips.

Xu An felt uneasy listening to their conversation and didn't even swallow the bun in his mouth.

Heading back to the Western Regions? Didn’t Asu Peiye promise me to go to the Cold Demon Country? He…he lied to me?

He wants to trick me back to the Western Regions! The crystal stone that resurrects the queen... Could it be that he wants to give me...

This damn man, he really has been lying to me all along! I thought he had changed for the better, but he still hasn't changed! Calling him husband, being afraid of the dark, being afraid of thunder, these are all his schemes!

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. She clutched the bun tightly, turned around and ran all the way back to the inn.

"Where's my baggage...where's my money?"

After rummaging through the messy quilt, I finally found the heavy bundle in the corner of the bed.

Without saying a word, Xu An was about to run, but before he went downstairs, Asu Pei Ye came up with a bag of candied fruits, smiling.

"My lady, where are you going? Don't you want to be your husband?"

Looking at his smile, if Xu An hadn't heard those words, he would have almost believed it.

"A Su Pei Ye, you are such a bitch. You told me you would take me to the Frost Demon Country, but you lied to me. It was really hard for you to put on such a show for so many days."

The man was a little stunned by her indifference.

"My lady, I admit that I don't want to take you to the Cold Demon Country. I do want to take you back to the Western Regions, but I am not putting on a show..."

"That's enough! Ah Su Pei Ye, if you get in my way, don't blame me for taking action."

Xu An interrupted the man's explanation in a harsh voice. She didn't want to listen and didn't want to waste time.

As she said this, she jumped down, waving her sleeves and gracefully left in the surprised gaze of everyone.

Then, Asu Pei Ye turned into a beam of light and rushed out.

He landed in front of Xu An and grabbed her, looking a little flustered, "Xu An, you promised me compensation, and I want you to fulfill it now."

"Compensation? Oh, Third Prince, you are really good at pretending. You made me trust you step by step, but in the end, everything you did was designed to take advantage of me."

Xu An pulled her hand back and laughed coldly. Her eyes darkened and her heart was filled with complicated emotions.

She was about to raise her hand to cast a spell, but found that she could not use her spiritual power. She frowned in confusion and looked at the man in front of her. The man frowned and looked apologetic, then cast a spell and pressed her sleep point with one hand.

"I'm sorry, Xu An." He hugged her and apologized softly.

Xu An closed his eyes helplessly and watched the bag beside him fall.

Money…money…

She wanted to die, but her whole body felt weak and her mind was in an uncontrollable drowsiness.

My money...

—

As everyone set off, inside the carriage, Asu Pei Ye was confused. He looked at the person in his arms in silence.

He knew that doing so would disgust her, but he didn't want her to go to the Cold Demon Country, and even less did he want her to meet those men.

He is selfish and sick. He only wants her to belong to him and to shine.

He was locked in darkness and lived like an ant, never seeing the light of day. For nine years, his only daily companion was the Canghua that was struggling to survive in the corner.

During those nine years, Lei Yuye almost devoured him...

He hated it, so after he came out he was almost a madman. He chopped off every person who had insulted him with his own hands. His hands were covered in blood. He relied on his ruthlessness to return to the position of the third prince of the Western Regions. From then on, no one bullied him anymore.

But he has been trapped in endless torture.

Facing Xu An's appearance, he was no longer in control and his mind was in disarray. Originally, he looked down on her from the bottom of his heart, until this woman actually saved him, more than once...

It turned out that there was someone willing to protect him... When she appeared in front of him again and again, when she protected him under the hands of the twin priests, he began to have thoughts that he shouldn't have.

Now, she was right in front of him, and he would rather let her hate him than tie her up to him.

He must marry her and make her belong to him for the rest of her life.

"Xu An...why can't you just like me?"

"That's right. How could you like someone as dark as me?"

It is a prayer, a desire,

It's panic and self-mockery.
