You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?

"I see. Miss, I am sorry for what you have done to me."

Zhao'er said as he pulled the quilt over Du Qingwan, still feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Du Qingwan just smiled indifferently and slowly closed her eyes.

I kept thinking about the scene of myself hitting my head against the pillar in the hall just now, and suddenly it felt a bit extreme.

[What was wrong with me just now that I actually thought of using the self-torture tactic to win the sympathy of the dog emperor?]

[The dog emperor kept saying he liked me, but in the end he was unwilling to even ask for a fair word for me?]

[Bah! Scumbag! Just think I'm blind, I still have a little thought about him. Humph!]

[Zhu Yunhao and Du Zhirou are simply a scumbag and a bitch, a perfect match made in heaven. It seems I have to be careful everywhere.]

Du Qingwan lay in bed, but her mind was full of dissatisfaction.

I tossed and turned for a long time, but still couldn't fall asleep peacefully.

So many things have happened recently that she feels like she has a splitting headache.

Fortunately, she was able to escape danger every time and avoid a tragic death in this hateful Daye Dynasty.

"Crack---"

Du Qingwan had just closed her eyes, ready to empty her mind and have a good sleep, when the door suddenly creaked open.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Wanyan Hongze standing beside the couch.

He crossed his arms across his chest, looking like he was quietly watching a good show.

"Wanyan Hongze? ... In broad daylight, you are too bold, aren't you? Aren't you afraid..."

When Du Qingwan saw Wanyan Hongze appear in her room in broad daylight, her first reaction was uneasiness, just like a guilty thief.

But before she finished her words, Wanyan Hongze interrupted her quickly:

"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that the dog emperor will catch you in bed?"

"You? ...Shameless!"

Du Qingwan was suddenly speechless and it took her a long time to squeeze out these few words.

Seeing this, Wanyan Hongze couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He sat down swiftly beside Du Qingwan's couch and reached out to touch her face, but she dodged in panic.

The big hand with distinct joints was awkwardly suspended in the air, and the smile on the stern face gradually froze.

"Are you shy, Miss Du? Don't worry, I don't mean any harm.

I know you were wronged in the hall today and almost hit your head and died, so I came here to see how badly you were hurt."

What shocked Du Qingwan was that Wanyan Hongze actually came to care about her.

In Du Qingwan's opinion, apart from being a little handsome, there was nothing else worthy of her appreciation about Wanyan Hongze.

Some of his heartwarming behaviors are usually not well-intentioned.

Du Qingwan didn't take it seriously at all.

In her opinion, the reason why Wanyan Hongze was willing to cooperate with her was just to use her to win the competition.

There was just one thing she couldn't figure out---

Loulan has already won the competition, so why hasn't Wanyan Hongze left Daye yet?

And he seemed to be at odds with her, coming to Renshou Palace to scare her every few days.

"What do you care! I think you are just here to gloat over other people's misfortunes!

Now that you have seen my shame, you are happy, can you leave now?"

Du Qingwan was like a child who had suffered a lot of grievances, her pink little lips were pouted high, and her face was full of grievances.

Even the voice began to tremble slightly.

Upon seeing this, Wanyan Hongze couldn't help but feel inexplicably heartbroken.

"I really can't understand why you still care about the Du family's face when they treated you like that?

Sometimes, being too sensible is not a good thing.

You always think about others, but in the end, you are the only one who gets wronged."

Wanyan Hongze smiled bitterly and thought it was necessary to remind Du Qingwan.

He didn't want to see her looking so helpless and aggrieved.

Of course Du Qingwan knew that Wanyan Hongze was worried about her.

But she did have her own difficulties, and it was not convenient for her to be frank with Wanyan Hongze.

So, she sat up straight with great effort, looked at the seemingly nonchalant Wanyan Hongze pitifully, and asked unhappily:

"Wanyan Hongze, did you risk coming here today just to see me laugh?"

Upon hearing this, Wanyan Hongze couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds: "Ah?"

"You've seen enough of this joke, the gate is over there, get lost!"

Du Qingwan was already in a bad mood, and now she had no patience at all, so she directly asked Wanyan Hongze to leave.

Wanyan Hongze was stunned for a few seconds, staring at Du Qingwan in confusion, muttering to himself.

Unexpectedly, he grabbed Du Qingwan's head, locked her lips deeply, and violently robbed her of her sweetness.

The strangest thing was that Du Qingwan lost the ability to resist in an instant due to the sudden deep kiss, and her eyes widened subconsciously.

A few seconds later, before Du Qingwan could recover from her loss, Wanyan Hongze suddenly let go of her, turned around and prepared to leave.

"Just stay here and I will take you away with me one day.

Before that, I will never let anyone bully you again, including the dog emperor."

After Shen Leng finished speaking, Wanyan Hongze quickly opened the door, jumped onto the roof with a whoosh, and disappeared.

Du Qingwan was stunned for a moment and thought she had heard it wrong.

After thinking carefully about every word Wanyan Hongze said several times, she was sure that she had not misunderstood.

Wanyan Hongze had wanted to take her away more than once.

"Will he really take me away?"

"Is his words...really credible?"

Du Qingwan blinked her bright eyes and murmured softly to herself.

Zhao'er came in and called her several times, but she didn't notice.

"Miss, what are you mumbling over there? You are talking nonsense, who can trust you?"

Zhao'er put the meal down gently, then quickly moved in front of Du Qingwan, his face filled with suspicion.

Du Qingwan raised her eyes to look at her, smiling without saying a word.

"Miss, are you confused because of Concubine Rou and the others?

I feel like you're not in good condition. How about I ask Doctor Wang to come and treat you?"

Zhao'er reached out and touched Du Qingwan's forehead and found that her temperature was normal and there was no sign of fever, which made him feel relieved.

But to be on the safe side, she still suggested seeking medical advice.

Du Qingwan didn't take it seriously and rejected it immediately:

"Hey! Zhao'er, I'm fine! I just dozed off for a while and had a little nightmare, but I'm fine now. Hehe..."

Du Qingwan chuckled twice and quickly landed on the ground.

She did feel quite tired at first, but after meeting Wanyan Hongze, her mood instantly improved.

"Is this really the case?"

Zhao'er was still half-believing and half-doubting, scratching his head helplessly.

Du Qingwan chuckled, nodded vigorously, and said "hmm" heavily.

Now Zhao'er felt much more at ease, a smile appeared on his face, and his nerves were no longer tense.

"Zhao'er, what are we eating today? Why does it smell so good?"

As soon as she walked to the small table, Du Qingwan was attracted by the aroma of food and couldn't help swallowing her saliva.

Zhao Er saw this and instantly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said cheerfully:

"Miss, are you starving? The emperor ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare this yam and chicken soup for you. It's very nourishing!

I have asked around, Concubine Rou doesn't even have this kind of treatment, so today only you and the Emperor will have the pleasure of enjoying this feast."

When mentioning this, Zhao'er's back suddenly straightened up a lot.

Just now, when she went to the imperial kitchen to get food, the maids from various palaces cast envious and jealous glances at her, which made her feel instantly proud.

"Really? ...Is this chicken soup poisonous?"

What made Zhao'er completely speechless was that Du Qingwan actually suspected that the chicken soup given by Zhu Yunhao was poisonous.

She was stunned for a moment and was speechless.
