Chapter 425: Growing Senile

Li Xueyue simply smiled at his words. Years ago, if someone had told her that she would become the Empress of a flourishing Kingdom, she would think that person was deranged. But here she was, in a palace that she would soon rule over.

"Did you just realize?" Li Xueyue teased whilst continuing to scribble her ideas down.

Li Xueyue didn't pay any mind to her messy handwriting. The more illegible it was, the less likely that people would be able to read what she wrote. This was simply an excuse, or she hadn't perfected her penmanship since about two and a half years ago, when the Li Family hired instructors to teach her.

"Where is my compliment?" Yu Zhen grumbled whilst crossing his arms like a spoiled child. She was too focused on writing her ideas down to even cast him a glance.

Yu Zhen tapped the table, on the empty spot next to her parchment. Believing he was lonely, she slid her palm on his hand and caressed it with her thumb.
