My Foolish Husband Turned Out to Have a Hidden Identity Too-Chapter 1288 - 1294: Demon World (Part 13)
"Shut up!"
The Demon Emperor’s expression darkened, and he said coldly, "This time I’ve summoned you for another matter; you need to prepare to wed the Prime Minister’s daughter, Du Feifei."
"What?"
You Xi almost jumped up, "You want me to marry that spoiled lady?"
"This is an order!" The Demon Emperor’s face sank, "Only she is worthy of your noble status! Alright, there’s nothing else for you here; you may leave now, but this human stays."
You Xi felt a shiver in his heart.
He understood, his worst fear had come true, for the Emperor indeed was greatly interested in this human...
"You want me to stay, but have you asked for my opinion?"
A cold laugh echoed from beside them, finally attracting the Demon Emperor’s attention.
"Your opinion?" The Demon Emperor let out a cold laugh, "This is my domain, I am the Master of the Demon World, all women in this Demon World belong to me, you... are no exception!"
Mu Ruyue laughed, a sneer accompanying her smile.
"I know a man who looks a lot like you. Although he once made many mistakes, I have to admit that he was indeed quite remarkable."
Ultimately, in regret, he even gave up his life for them...
"It’s hard to imagine someone with his same face saying such things."
The Demon Emperor’s expression gradually darkened, a storm of rage glimpsed in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, the Princess Consort Li has arrived."
Just as he was about to vent his anger, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Upon hearing the name of the Princess Consort Li, You Xi’s body trembled violently, a clear joy flashed in his eyes, and he couldn’t help turning to look outside...
The palace doors were slowly pushed open, and a vivid figure walked in from outside.
The young woman bore a charming doll-like face, her brown hair slightly curled, looking very dainty, with a charming smile on her cute visage.
But upon seeing You Xi inside the palace, her body stiffened, a subtle shadow of gloom passed over her face...
"Lady Li, you are here? Have a seat."
The Demon Emperor waved his hand, raising his gaze towards Mu Ruyue, "I’m willing to give you a chance to think it over, whether you choose to become my concubine or spend the rest of your life confined to this place without ever leaving..."
"Father!"
You Xi’s expression changed, he hurriedly stepped forward and grasped Mu Ruyue’s hand, saying, "She... she is already my woman, and she’s carrying my child, so... so do you want to turn your grandchild into your son? Or do you intend to snatch your son’s wife?"
"You Xi!"
Mu Ruyue frowned, scanning the young man beside her lightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I’m not talking nonsense!"
You Xi tightly held her hand, "I just need you to cooperate with me a little, I’ll explain everything to you later..."
The Demon Emperor fell into silence.
At this moment, You Xi had no idea what kind of storm he was brewing, and his heart began to tense up...
So, no one noticed the ghastly pale look on Lady Li’s face when she heard You Xi’s words...
"You all may leave now."
After a long silence, the Demon Emperor’s voice finally came...
Hearing this, You Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that they had passed this ordeal.
...
In the imperial garden, Mu Ruyue walked side by side with You Xi. Slowly, she turned to look at the side profile of the young man beside her and said in a detached voice, "You shouldn’t have said those things just now..."
