After the King of Jing left, Ye Jiu, ensuring there was no one outside, quickly lay down on the bed but actually entered the space.
Sikong Mo had already been in the space alone for half a day. Seeing Ye Jiu come in, he immediately asked, "So, did the King of Jing give you a hard time?"
Although he knew it was unlikely, Sikong Mo couldn't help but worry.
It's only because it concerns Ye Jiu that he feels at a loss.
"Of course not." Ye Jiu laughed, though the smile was somewhat bitter, "Moreover, I promised him that I would accompany him to see the Princess Consort tomorrow."
However, Ye Jiu's expression led Sikong Mo to believe that she was unwilling to go, which caused him to feel this way.
So, he said tenderly, "Jiujiu, if you don't want to, don't force yourself. You must remember, you are never alone, you have me, and I can fully protect you from being bullied by anyone."
