Chapter 330
Somehow, the Emperor went off quite entertained and I watched him... Kind of understand why that was even after the "bitter taste" he got since once I looked at the guy he was talking about, a disgusted expression was what I found.
’Oh~ I know what this is... The pleasure of a parent after making their children cringe with a weird comment... Yup. I know your pain kinky.’
That’s what this is. Heh. Mom was a pro at that.
’It’s alright, kinky... At least he didn’t tell his friends about how you listen and dance to Chinese men... ngh! Not all were Chinese! Most were Korean, Mom!!’ — Slightly triggered while I recalled because I felt compassion, I fought the picture of my mom in my head. Clenching my hand to the memories since it’s still annoying how her friends would then ask if I knew how to speak Chinese.
’I did learn it but not for you to go around yelling it, mom...!’
"..."
’... Yeah, let’s not bring my dark past to the present.’ — At Anne’s confused vibes, I said feeling dead inside. Wanting to become ashes as I lifted my head to look at the man already staring at me... Probably waiting to meet my eyes to say something.
"....."
"... It is delightful to see you again, my lady. Please do not place meaning in the Emperor’s words, he is a pretentious Monarch."
’... I guess since it’s you, you can say that... The privilege of a male lead it is, I guess.’ — Not saying yes but tilting our head to the side, not truly convinced, I answered his sayings. Not too keen on agreeing since I’m in the "any moment I could die" kind of situation. — ’... Yeah. Let’s not tempt fate.’
"... Thank you."
"???" — ’Suddenly why... ??’
