Chapter 129 I'm Waiting for You to Explain

"Elder Zhao, I'll leave the subsequent matters to you." Mu Ruyue yawned as she had been summoned to the Imperial Palace immediately after a month's journey without having had the chance for a proper rest. Now that everything was resolved, she should return to the Mu Residence.

Suddenly, she lifted her head and looked indifferently at the man as beautiful as a god but said nothing. Just receiving her gaze, Ye Wuchen's heart tightened, and a hint of panic crossed his handsome face.

He was afraid, afraid that she would distance herself from him from then on, and afraid that she would never pay attention to him for the rest of his life.

And as that fear threatened to spread, he couldn't help but walk up to Mu Ruyue, raising his hand intending to grasp the young girl's shoulder, but as his fingers touched her, he let go, his eyes filled with complexity and panic, as if unsure of how to start explaining.

Tell her it was a matter of no choice?
