Chapter 253: Love In Action (2)

“I will help you…as long as you work hard to become the Emperor, I will help you. One day, I will make Gong Yimo become your woman!”

Gong Che looked at the Empress in surprise. This was a matter that went against morals and was considered a taboo, yet his mother was willing to help him?

The Empress sighed and said, “I only hope that you will work hard. You only need to know that by becoming the Emperor, you can obtain everything you want! That’s all you need to know.”

Gong Che closed his eyes.

“Mother Empress, I already know.”

When Gong Yimo rushed into her courtyard, she saw Gong Jue soaking in the hotspring. There was a pained expression on his face.

Gong Yimo sighed in relief. It seemed like nothing major happened.

She slowly got closer to him. When she was five meters away from him, Gong Jue suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes was like a beast’s, it was bloodshot.

“What happened to you?” Gong Yimo was shocked by his appearance. She ran to his side and was about to touch his forehead when he stopped her.

In a low voice, he said, “Don’t touch!”

Gong Yimo’s hand froze in midair. She doubtfully looked at him, but she discovered that he was gazing deeply at her. That feeling…it was like she was being eyed by a prey. It seemed like she was about to be eaten by him any minute.

Gong Yimo was a little uneasy when she asked, “What’s wrong?”

Gong Jue glanced at her and then closed his eyes again. His voice was extremely hoarse as he whispered, “Nothing…I’ve been poisoned by an aphrodisiac. I will be fine soon.”

An aphrodisiac? Gong Yimo wrinkled her brows in surprise. There was an aphrodisiac in the palace banquet?

She rummaged through her space only to find out that she only had detox pills. She took out a detox pill and leaned towards him to feed him.

“Although I don’t know if this will be effective, you should eat one first.”

When she had suddenly leaned towards him, Gong Jue could smell the unique fragrance from her body. Under the water, he had his hands clenched tightly into a fist. His forehead was bursting with blue veins.

Gong Yimo became a little anxious when she saw that Gong Jue still had his mouth tightly closed. With one hand, she held onto his chin and slightly raised his head. With the other hand, Gong Yimo forced the pill into his mouth.

Gong Jue frightened her by suddenly opening his eyes.

His gaze looked extremely hot and insatiable as he looked at Gong Yimo. He really…he really wanted to pull her into the water and rip apart her clothes!

Gong Yimo blankly stared at him. When she finally returned to her senses, he had already swallowed the detox pill. But it wasn’t enough, he lightly licked her fingertips. This inexplicable feeling that he gave her, made frightened Gong Yimo as she immediately retracted her hand.

His will was almost about to collapse when he saw the shocked expression on Gong Yimo’s face. This brought back his remaining will as he forced himself to stay conscious. There was some thing he couldn’t do right now.

He had only licked her fingertips, yet she was frightened to this degree. If he really couldn’t control himself and accidentally did something to her, it’ll make her discover his abnormal love for her. At that point, she will only hate him.

Gong Jue took a deep breath.

In a low voice, he said, “I’m sorry Royal Sister…I…I didn’t do it deliberately.” He really couldn’t control himself…

Gong Yimo knew that Gong Jue was poisoned with an aphrodisiac, so he probably did that because of the poison. She was probably extremely on edge because of Gong Che’s suddenly confession this morning.

Upon realizing that, she let out a sigh of relief.

She asked, “How is it? Is the medicine effective?”

The medicine she gave had no effect, but Gong Jue wanted to comfort her by saying that he felt better. However, it was hard to restrain himself when he saw Gong Yimo kneel down beside the hot spring while eagerly looking at him with her moist and glossy eyes, and her tempting lips.
