Ming Qi's body froze.

Natu raised his head and looked into his cold eyes.

Ming Qi's eyes flickered, as if he was stunned.

After he regained his senses, he gently pushed Natu's arm away.

"Princess is serious, Ming Qi has no worries, just thinking about how to help you."

Natu sat back in his seat and stared at him.

"You seem to want me to be emperor more than everyone else."

Having said this, Natu tried his best to squeeze a smile and asked like a joke—

"Are you afraid that after my fall, Zhaoman will be bad for you? Mingqi, even if I can't be the emperor, I can keep you. Then we..."

Before she could finish speaking, Ming Qi immediately stood up with his sleeves thrown.

"Princess! You can't say such discouraged words. The outcome is uncertain. You have a great chance of winning. If you don't become an emperor, with your Zhaoman character, your fate will not be easy."

Natu was startled, she opened her lips: "But..."

"No but." Ming Qi walked to Natu's side, bent down and looked at her seriously.

Then, he said something very serious.

"Natu, within my ability, I will always help you until the last moment."

Natu was stunned.

When she wanted to ask more questions, her shoulder suddenly hurt.

Immediately afterwards, her face flushed red, Natu propped up the bed and pressed her heart with her hands.

"Ming Qi...here again..." Her voice was hoarse.

Affectionate attack.

Ming Qi frowned, this time there was a hint of hesitation.

But in the end, he still stepped forward and hugged Natu gently.

"Don't be afraid," he said in a deep voice, as if sighing, "I'm here."

...

Because Gu Nuo'er came, Madam Bai prepared a table of delicacies.

During the meal, Bai Yi kept saying: "These dishes, Madam got up early to prepare, all of them are your favorites, princess eat more."

Gu Nuo'er was still chewing shredded pork, and Ye Siming had piled up a few more shrimps in the bowl.

She hurriedly swallowed: "Aunt Bai has been busy all day? Thank you for your hard work!"

Because of these words, Madam Bai secretly kicked Bai Yi and glared at him.

He seemed to hate him for talking too much.

Mrs. Bai served Gu Nuoer a bowl of soup.

"Nuoer, don't listen to his nonsense. I'm not busy at all. I'm so happy that I can't sleep when I know you're coming!"

"Well, I see this family, only Nuo'er can help me."

"Si Ming won't talk about it. All day long, when he goes to find Nuo'er, he is soaking in the school grounds."

"The most useless thing in my family is Bai Yi!" After speaking, Madam Bai slapped Bai Yi on the back.

Bai Yi, who was burying his head and holding the bowl to eat, almost choked.

Bai Yi raised his head and looked at his wife innocently and puzzled.

What did he do wrong?

Could it be that he just stepped into the front hall with his left foot and made his wife unhappy?

Mrs. Bai kept winking at him, and then looked at Gu Nuoer.

The corners of Bai Yi's mouth were covered with rice grains, and he frowned in thought.

Madam what does this mean?

Gu Nuo'er took a bite of the fried dumplings, and Shui Mu looked at Bai Yi and his wife silently.

Ye Siming looked up at them.

He couldn't bear it any longer, and reminded: "Old Bai, is Bai Niang explaining to you and saying something?"

Bai Yi suddenly woke up.

He hurriedly wiped the rice from the corner of his mouth: "Right! Her Royal Highness, we have something for you."

Madam Bai pinched her brows with a headache.

She punched Bai Yi on the arm and reprimanded in a low voice, "That's not it! That thing is given to the princess after eating!"

"I'll let you be the head of the family, thank the princess for giving her face and dining!"
