Chen Mo appreciated her frustrated expression and nodded, "No worries, I never hold grudges. Just be mindful of your actions in the future, and if you can stay away from me, that would be even better."
Chu Yanli's cheeks were flushed red, and she almost bit through her molars.
Originally, she intended to "handle" them this way, but who would have thought the Empress wouldn't play by the rules and ended up shooting herself in the foot...
"About the cooperation..."
The Empress extended her hand to take back the Seal Platform, her expression calming like a rain shower turning into a gentle breeze. She smiled and said, "Considering your performance wasn't too bad, I will grudgingly agree with you, but you mustn't act recklessly in the future."
"...Understood."
Chu Yanli hesitated for a moment and then asked softly, "Yuchan, have the two of you really... done it?"
"Cough, cough!"
