C4 Aware of Your Mistakes

The Empyrean Pavilion covered an area of more than ten miles, but even the Empyrean Pavilion was only a pavilion. If he had locked me up in the Empyrean Pavilion, it wouldn't have been so boring, but Zhuochen seemed to be determined to deal with me. He didn't even let go of the door, as if he was imprisoning me.

It was also thanks to Yunxi that she was able to endure my daily complaints and had the patience to cook some fine food or pinch a handful of flowers every day to coax me.

In the blink of an eye, another month had passed, and most of the injuries on his body had healed. In this month, the Demon Emperor had come once, and when he saw that I was alive and kicking again, although he did not immediately let me out, he still allowed two Protectors to discuss matters with me.

Left Patronus Chimu was transferred out by Zhuochen. Right Patronus, Wanqing, who no longer had anyone to quarrel with, came to the Empyrean Pavilion every day on the pretext of accompanying me, but in reality, she was bored to death.

It was just that she had tired that girl, Yunxi. Not only did she have to cook double meals, but she also had to spend twice as much time cleaning the house as usual - Wanqing had always been a troublemaker. My Empyrean Pavilion was not torn down, and I have to thank her for showing mercy.

...

"Yunxi, how many days has Right Patronus not been here?" I was puzzled. Could it be that something had happened? But if that girl really had something to do, she would have at least sent someone to inform me.

"It's been five days, my lord. Do you want Yunxi to go to the Protector to take a look?" A handful of Huangqin was patiently inserted into the rattan screen by Yunxi. A bitter fragrance filled the room. I walked to the screen and plucked a flower.

"Bring a pot of osmanthus wine from the day before yesterday. If there's nothing else, just put it down. If she doesn't remember where she went... If something happens, hurry up and come back to tell me."

"Yunxi understands, but... Are you saying..." Yunxi frowned. I knew that she was worried about the same thing as me.

I nodded. "Two days ago, she said that Chimu couldn't stop her when she went outside the blood pool, so she also went in."

Although she said that the Demon Emperor did not mention it later on, I had a feeling that Zhuochen would not let this matter go, especially after dealing with Wanqing and taking the opportunity to beat me up...

Yunxi turned around and left. I returned to the table and sat down, watching Yunxi walk away. As soon as I closed the window, I sensed another familiar aura.

"Creak -" The door was pushed open. The person outside leaned against the door and smiled at me.

"Are you here to let me out?" I sat there and didn't move. I poured another cup of tea and placed it in front of me.

Zhuochen walked in and sat in front of me, sipping his tea. "Yes, I let you out. Are you happy?"

I played with the small flower in my palm, "I have been locked up by you for so long. I am naturally overjoyed to be able to get out now." That being said, there was no sign of 'ecstasy' on his sad face.

The Demon Emperor seemed to be stunned for a moment, then he stared at me and laughed, "Look at how pitiful you are. It's as if I bullied you."

I thought to myself, You haven't bullied me yet? However, I could only mutter these words in my heart, saying that I must not say it. [I was being blamed by him. One trespassing is bad enough for me. Now I have to say something that doesn't sound good. I don't even know if I can survive it.]

When I saw that he had finished his cup of tea, I took the pot and tried to refill it, but he held my hand down, and I felt the warmth of it on the back of my hand.

Although he knew very well that Zhuochen could only be seen from a distance, or that he could be written in a book for future generations to look at, and that he would never think of anything that he shouldn't think about - that face was right in front of him, and his hand was being held by force.

I don't think any girl can be as calm as I am.

"Are you going to let me drink tea all the time?"

[It's over, it's over!] As soon as he spoke, he was slapped in the face. His voice was low and hoarse. When he asked the question, I felt my heart was shaking.

I barely managed to catch my breath before my voice became a little steadier. I looked up at him and hesitated, "Demon Emperor... Do you want to drink?"

... "" He blinked his eyes, as if he didn't expect me to say that. Then he laughed, "You don't plan to say anything about the debt you owe?"

I smiled bitterly to myself. Sure enough, she was here to collect the debt. But since I mentioned it, then Wanqing must be tired of me.

"No matter how severely you punish me, I admit it. It's just that right Patronus trespassing in the forbidden grounds was my fault for being too willful. Can you spare right Patronus?"

It was really awkward to say this. Her face, which had just cooled down, was burning up again, but it was worth it to let Wanqing suffer less.

The warmth on my hand faded away and I withdrew my hand. I got up and knelt beside him.

After a while, I heard him talking. He didn't sound casual or even joking. He was calm and determined. "I just found out that you are very protective of that little girl."

I looked up at him. Why... That doesn't sound right.

"Since you're so protective of her... Originally, Right Patronus's punishment for trespassing in the forbidden area would have ended today, but now that you say it, I would like to give her another seven or eight days. "

" No! "I was so scared that my entire body turned cold. I couldn't think of why the Demon Emperor would do this.

"It's true that Right Patronus is in the wrong, but -" I was in a hurry to explain, but just as I opened my mouth, I was interrupted by his cold voice.

"But she made a mistake because of you. You should be the one to suffer, not her. Is that what you want to say?" The tall figure blocked the sunlight that shone through the window. For the first time, I felt pressured and intimidated by him. I wanted to say yes, but I was forced to the point that I didn't even dare to nod my head.

After a while, I heard a sigh.

"According to the laws of the Devil Realm, what should I do if I trespass into the forbidden area?"

"What should I do if I barge into the forbidden area in a moment of desperation?"

"Those who have contributed, how can they make up for their mistakes?"

"What should we do if we form an alliance?"

That phrase "forming an alliance for personal gain" stabbed into my heart, but his helpless eyes made my tightened heart slowly recover.

[What he said is actually framed by the law?]

I didn't know how to respond at the moment. A feeling of shame instantly spread through my entire body, rushing all over my body before finally turning into mist that covered my eyes.

"I don't know."

A pair of strong, warm hands wiped away the tears that had welled up in her eyes, and she heard his helpless voice say, "I didn't say anything to you. If I couldn't answer, I wouldn't be crying like this."

I dodged his hand.

"I was wrong."

"It wasn't that I was wrong today, but that I was wrong from the start."

"You're in a high position, yet you know nothing about laws."

When I raised my head again, I felt that there was a mountain and a river between us. The distance made me shrink in fear. Only the warmth on my face pulled me back to reality. I looked at him apologizing word by word.

"As the Demon Lord, I shouldn't leave any evidence behind."

The pressure that enveloped his entire body gradually faded away. He finally stood up, "Very good."
