“I’m very well. I have loyal subjects who love me, a lover who is devoted to me, and a trustworthy partner,” Tang Guo smiled. “I have endless beautiful dresses, endless pretty jewelry, food and clothing at my beck and call. Life is particularly comfortable. My Sunset Empire is a pure land that countless people envy.”
“As for your compensation, I won’t accept it. I won’t accept your apology either. You can stay in your corner and suffer.”
“If you are only here to apologize and compensate me, then you can leave now.”
Yan Yi was still in a daze. The eyes that once loved him no longer had him in them. They were filled with that man named Shi Cheng.
Seeing that he didn’t leave, Tang Guo couldn’t help but take out her communicator, “Captain Su, come over and escort Lord Yan out. He’s standing in front of me, getting in my way.”
After a while, Su Ao came in and said to Yan Yi, “Lord Yan, please.”
Yan Yi was stunned to see Su Ao, but he eventually gave a bitter smile and followed him out.
After leaving the palace, Yan Yi ran into Qin Jiaren and Shao Qing on the street. They exchanged glances, and it was Yan Yi who spoke first, “I want to ask you something, it won’t take long.”
Shao Qing and the others finally nodded and led him to a private room in a teahouse.
Half an hour later, they came out, and Yan Yi left despondently, his face pale.
Watching his departing figure, Qin Jiaren laughed, “Her Majesty is indeed ruthless.”
“Yes,” Shao Qing wiped his sweat, “I once had Her Majesty mop the floor. She didn’t wring out the mop, and the whole floor was covered in water. At the time, I thought she really didn’t know how. Later, I realized that Her Majesty holds grudges. When I slipped and fell, it was retribution.”
“Let’s go, we still have things to do. Her Majesty has come up with something new again. Let’s go check it out. As for Yan Yi, just leave him be. His days won’t be good from now on.”
Even without deliberate targeting, Yan Yi would live a life of suffering.
It was all Yan Yi’s fault. Her Majesty was such a good person, once wholeheartedly devoted to him, but he was blinded by filth and pushed away the one who loved him the most. If this isn’t courting death, what is?
Yan Yi left the boundaries of the Sunset Empire and stood at the border for a very long time, unable to take his eyes off the distant castle complex.
In those castles lived a noble woman, the queen of the Sunset Empire.
She ruled the entire Sunset Empire, had a loving husband, and loyal subjects.
She was noble, beautiful, intelligent, and strong.
She once sincerely liked a man named Yan Yi, but it was this man who abandoned her.
She later forgot her feelings for Yan Yi and fell in love with another man, who always cherished her.
The man named Yan Yi deeply regretted it.
He recalled the conversation with his old friends in the teahouse, his face pale, eyes sore, and legs weak.
At that time, when he had a high fever, Xiaoguo left him in Yan Nian’s care and left the villa alone with a kitchen knife. A young lady who had never even cut meat, she hacked through countless zombies with the kitchen knife, covered in blood and brains, and rushed into the pharmacy to find him a large bag of fever-reducing medicine.
On her way out of the pharmacy, she was attacked by zombies and turned into one. Perhaps luckier than other zombies, she became a natural zombie king.
But she still wanted to find him. She hid her zombie identity, carried that bag of fever-reducing medicine, and embarked on a journey to find her fiancé.
She finally found him, but later… things didn’t go as planned.
