Chapter 162: Test the Poison for the Male Lead

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Inside the imperial study, the smell of the incense burner filled every corner.

Ke Ruan sat next to Si Yuhan with a face of despair, reciting the imperial edicts one by one like a primary school student.

Si Yuhan looked sideways at Ke Ruan’s depressed cheek, the corners of his mouth curving and his eyes filled with endless warmth.

His heart that had been empty for so long finally filled up.

“Your Majesty, it’s time to have the meal.”

A secret guard suddenly appeared under the emperor’s desk. Si Yuhan waved his hand and asked him to leave.

He got up and glanced at Ke Ruan. Ke Ruan accepted his order and put down the imperial edicts from his hand, then he followed him to the cubicle where the table was filled with all kinds of delicacies.

Ke Ruan, who had no feeling before seeing the food, also felt a little hungry when he saw so many dishes in front of him.

Si Yuhan sat in front of him. “What are you waiting for, my dear?”

Ke Ruan looked at him. “What do you mean?”

Si Yuhan raised an eyebrow. “Test the poison for me. Do you still need me to teach you how to do it?”

Ke Ruan’s face darkened and he pointed at himself suspiciously, “Are you talking to me?”

Si Yuhan was patient enough with Ke Ruan. “Except my dear, is there anyone else here?”

Ke Ruan was speechless. ‘Tut-tut, you’re not a man, you’re an animal. Bah, you’re worse than an animal.’

“You have so many secret guards. Why do you want me to test the poison?”

Si Yuhan said, “This is what you should do for your husband as the Empress.”

Ke Ruan was silent. ‘Who do you think you are?’

“What’s wrong, my dear? Any problems?”

A blunt threat.

Ke Ruan gritted his teeth, “No, no problem.”

The secret guards hidden in the darkness also did not know why His Majesty asked Ke Ruan to test the poison again. All the food placed in front of His Majesty was checked by them that there would be no problem.

However, there was no way they could know His Majesty’s thoughts.

“What do you want to eat, Your Majesty?”

Si Yuhan said, “Anything is fine.”

Ke Ruan picked the nearest dish at will and fed it into his mouth. He frowned and looked at Si Yuhan, “It’s safe.”

Then he wanted to lift it up with the chopsticks and give it to him.

Si Yuhan said coldly, “What is it? I don’t want it.”

He endured it!

Ke Ruan smiled. “Your Majesty, what do you want to have?”

“Anything!”

Ke Ruan was speechless. ‘This guy is being difficult on purpose.’

He tried another dish, and after eating it, he smacked. ‘Well, it tastes good.’

He tried to feed it to Si Yuhan and never thought that Si Yuhan would open his mouth. He thought that Si Yuhan was just torturing him, but this time he really opened his mouth.

So it made Ke Ruan dumbfounded and he didn’t know what to do. He watched as Si Yuhan ate the food he gave.

“Then.”

Ke Ruan nodded in a daze, “Oh.”

There was a smile in Si Yuhan’s eyes, as if he had returned to seven years ago when Ke Ruan also fed the food into his mouth like this. At that time, he thought that his life would be like that forever, but the pity was…

Ke Ruan didn’t know which part of Si Yuhan’s nerves were wrong that he frightened him with the cold aura.

He was so scared that he wouldn’t say boo to a goose, and he dutifully tested the poison for him.

After the meal, Ke Ruan was exhausted.

The secret guard removed the dishes and Ke Ruan looked at him carefully. “Can I go back now?”

Si Yuhan got up and sat down on the emperor’s chair. He picked up the memorial to the throne on the emperor’s desk as Ke Ruan looked at him like that.

“Yes.”

‘What?

Why would he agree so easily? Has he changed into another person?’

Si Yuhan looked up at him. “What’s wrong, my dear? Do you still want to…”

“No, I don’t. I’ll leave first. Goodbye,” Ke Ruan ran away, quickly. It wasn’t a joke that he really didn’t want to stay with the current male lead.
