Lu tossed the invitation aside and grabbed a fork immediately.
“He doesn’t give me a chance to rest.”
Of course, now would be the perfect time to shake her up.
Hayden wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
[Star Icon]Now journalists were lurking near the Calleta embassy, continually checking when she would take the carriage sent from the Imperial Palace.
They could feel the watchful eyes, meticulously observing what she was wearing, how pale her face looked, and how she walked.
She purposely didn’t hide her tired complexion from lack of sleep. She’d rather appear tired and struggling, giving them something to cling to. Carlos would want her to appear confident. What does he know?
“Change your clothes, Ambassador. This isn’t suitable attire.”
But upon meeting her, Hayden made this statement and immediately handed her over to the maids. What does he know, that jerk! He must spread the rumor that he can’t do his job at night! Had an accident? Huh? That jerk still hasn’t officially received the Empress, according to the aristocratic yearbook. Ruin his wedding once properly?
The maids instantly swarmed her.
“What, what, what are you trying to……!”
“Hello, Ambassador. Let’s start by taking off your coat.”
A maid she had seen the day before kindly began to remove Lu’s heavy coat.
She tossed the Calleta Empire’s unique coat to another maid beside her, as if she couldn’t bear to look at it. Lu demanded an explanation, but the man who could have explained was already turning to leave.
“You’ll have outdoor activities today, so wearing these heavy clothes would be dangerous.”
“Can someone please tell me specifically what this outdoor activity is?”
“You’ll see when you get there.”
She had casually pinned her hair this time, suspecting something, and indeed, the maids let down her tightly wound hair. Her scalp had been pulled, so it already hurt, but this was a relief.
Being rushed like this when she was already tired and had not slept well was unpleasant, but wasn’t the Calleta ambassador now a toy for Emperor Fersepta to play with? She just had to be dragged around and perform well.
What absurd thing would he have her do this time? She couldn’t guess.
“Here, wear these clothes.”
Oh, pants. Had she remembered what she had said the other day? Pants with bootless heels that protected her feet well, a black top and light coat that didn’t bind her body as much, and finally gloves.
Lu tried to anticipate what else Emperor His Majesty might do this time but could not figure it out at all.
“You look very good.”
The maid tied her hair up high in satisfaction and then stepped back.
She indeed felt a sense of relief when the maids stepped back, not because of the pressure from the people, but because of the weight of the clothes she had been wearing.
Today, again, after passing through the maids’ hands, she shed the weight she had been bearing. Frankly, only then could she catch her breath.
“Indeed. It suits you well.”
The maids quietly left, and one person filled the space. A powerful individual, one who had to gather her presence for others. Lucius turned to face him first, bowing politely.
“Your Majesty.”
“Enough.”
In his tone telling Lucius to dispense with the formality, there was a natural authority that he hadn’t deliberately put in. It was a tone that only the embodiment of proven authority, unconcerned with such things, could casually throw out.
“Stop it, and walk a little.”
A gorgeous face concealing immense power and strength, his existence seemed as though nothing could bring him down. He gestured with his hand.
“Have you eaten properly?”
“Yes.”
The Emperor’s voice was very tender, but the response was not just rough but rigid. However, he didn’t care. Although he had eaten dangerous food in the office he disliked, he had had a meal, and that was enough.
“Are you looking forward to what we’ll do today?”
“Yes, but…”
“You look like you’re not expecting anything at all. I’m sad that the newspapers are slandering me these days. I’m always wondering what fun thing I can show the constructor.”
Hayden, speaking with a tone that he was not sad at all, was clearly teasing her.
‘You’ll know someday when you get hit in the back of the head by me, Zhenzhu…’
Lucius had thought for the thirtyseventh time about smashing the back of his head with a tea kettle filled with hot tea. It made her feel a little better.
“Wasn’t it fun to dance together the day before yesterday?”
“Your Majesty was the one who called it boring etiquette training.”
After being wrapped around him for days, all that was left was evil and energy.
Hayden is generous. He knew this much backtalk was fun. He was a different Emperor from Carlos in many ways. For example, the reference points were different.
He was generous, but that was only when she did not cross the line. But the moment she crossed it, he would ruthlessly cut her down. Such people were evident in her experience. Whether it was her ankle, wrist, or neck, it didn’t matter.
“It wasn’t boring at all with Constructor Gennes.”

It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
