Marked by a Tyrant After Transmigrated

Chapter 16

The young man had a soft and gentle appearance, with pleasing eyebrows and eyes that smiled with a slight sheen.

Jin Wang's heart fluttered all at once, as if a small hammer had softly hit him, prompting a shallow ripple within him.

Jin Wang pressed down the throbbing in his heart and said casually, "Didn't Gu tell you to have your meal on your own earlier? You clearly know this will delay Gu's handling of state affairs."

Ye Shu's smiling eyes lowered, revealing a hint of nervousness. He pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "But...but one always needs to eat ah. I heard that Your Majesty has been busy with the state affairs since this afternoon and has not had a meal. How can your body bear it?"

"Are you worried about Gu?" Jin Wang asked.

Ye Shu lowered his head, his expression brought a trace of redness. "My heart burns for Your Majesty, so naturally I am worried."

Jin Wang looked at him fixedly, seemingly judging the authenticity of these words.

After a while, he beckoned to Ye Shu. "Alright, come here."

Ye Shu obediently walked over. Jin Wang took away the

tiered food box with one hand and swept Ye Shu into his embrace with the other.

Jin Wang gently stroked the long hair draped behind the latter and asked, "You came here like this?"

Ye Shu pretended not to understand. "Is there anything wrong with this?"

"Letting your hair down is a neglect of decorum before the palace."

Ye Shu innocently said, "But I didn't know."

"Gu left you a palace maid."

"I don't like the style they comb," Ye Shu took out a jade hairpin from his bosom and stuffed it into Jin Wang's hand. "I want Your Majesty to help me tie my hair."

Since Jin Wang ascended the throne, no one had ever dared to make him do such a thing. He clutched the hairpin and laughed. "Ye Shu, you have a lot of nerve."

Ye Shu and Jin Wang looked at each other for a moment, when the former's eyes slightly narrowed and flashed with a bit of loss. "Then forget it... I just had a dream, recalling that when I was young, it was always Your Majesty who tied my hair......"

As he spoke, he tried to retrieve the jade hairpin from Jin Wang's hand.

However, Jin Wang suddenly clenched his hand and held the jade hairpin tightly.

"Your Majesty?"

Jin Wang's expression had completely sunk, and his voice turned cold, "Ye Qian, you seem to be thinking of testing Gu's bottom line. Gu advises you to stop this, the sooner the better."

Ye Shu's eyelashes trembled slightly and he didn't dare to answer.

He was indeed testing him.

Jin Wang had been acting very contradictorily. He treated Ye Shu with every possible consideration and indulgence because of his relationship with the original owner. But whenever Ye Shu brought up the past and played sycophant to him, he would display great resistance.

It was as if he didn't want Ye Shu to mention it.

Ye Shu had no notion of what this man was thinking and thus he could only try to take chances. But......it seemed like this time his playing had gone too far.

This dog emperor's mind was really hard to guess.

Jin Wang's imposing manner was no longer gentle; those handsome eyebrows and eyes carried a trace of cold killing intent, like a true dragon whose reverse scale had been touched, finally revealing his fangs.
