章 374: Appear!

Situ Xingchen just felt that Chu Liuyue's words pierced her ears. Her gaze changed, and she forced a smile, which she rapidly kept.

Rong Jin saw Chu Liuyue's bright smile and felt very conflicted.

It was the best choice for him to be engaged to Situ Xingchen. When everything went smoothly, he was once secretly thankful that everything would be easier with Situ Xingchen.

Originally, he thought that he didn't care much about Chu Liuyue anymore. After all, Situ Xingchen didn't lose to Chu Liuyue in any area. But at this point, he realized that it wasn't the case.

As for the Empress, she had no mood to hear what Chu Liuyue was saying. She looked ghastly, and her eyes were unfocused as she stared at Emperor Jiawen's decisive and cold back—her heart was void of hope.

If it weren't for Rong Jin and Situ Xingchen helping her along, she would've long collapsed onto the floor.
