327 Give me your first time ——-Zhai Tianyu knew that this question was coming, he knew that he had to face this since it was the consequence of his own actions. He parted his lips and said, ” I understand that you are upset, but the matter of the heart is something that one cannot control——”
He was still speaking when Ji Yu who was silently standing on the side burst out laughing. Her laughter was raucous and mocking, a burst of laughter that he has never heard leave her lips as Zhai Tianyu furrowed his brows and looked at the woman who was laughing as if she was having her last laugh.
” Consort what is the matter?” He asked with a frown on his face, he did not look displeased but instead was a bit stunned seeing a side of Ji Yu, that he has never seen before, which made him wonder why she was acting like this and whether or not there were things that he did not know about this woman who stood beside him with a smile that seemed crazed and unappealable.
Zhai Tianyu still did not say anything harsh as he took a step towards Ji Yu who was laughing with her hands around her waist. He pursed his lips and then said, ” If you have a problem you can tell me, and I will help you, Consort——”
” You…You are my problem! Your majesty! YOU!” Something inside of her snapped as Ji Yu threw away the gentleness that she always had on her face. She could not help it, what did he say? Did he say that the matters of the heart could not be controlled? And to whom? To her? The woman who ruined herself for him!
Who gave her life away just for him, just for the sake of standing next to him?
She reached forward and took hold of Zhai Tianyu’s robe, an action that surprised Zhai Tianyu for he expected something like this from the Queen but not Ji Yu.
” Consort what are you——” his words were cut off when he saw Ji Yu lean towards his face, her warm lips almost touching his as he pushed her away when their lips were almost inches away from one another.
.....
Zhai Tianyu had never expected Ji Yu to do something like this, was she forcing a kiss on him? It was not as if he wanted to treat her harshly but her actions made it impossible for him to not act in his defence.
He took several steps away from Ji Yu was stumbling because of his push just now and said, ” What are you doing, consort?”
” What am I doing? I am doing what I should have done years ago!” Ji Yu shrieked as she stabilised herself, her breathing harsh as her chest heaved up and down. ” I have been with you for ages, even before anyone else! I have loved you. I have loved you to the point where I lost myself and yet you…you fell for someone else, your majesty? Why? Why could you not see me when I stood by your side all along!”
She has been patient, she has been kind and she has been everything that Zhai Tianyu liked but he fell for a woman who was neither of those things, how can she not be driven crazy at this point?
” Why not me? The Queen is selfish, she is rude and brash. She does not even have an ounce of gentleness in her! She speaks as if she came from slums rather than a noble house, cold, heartless and a freak who rips the heart of ——”
” CONSORT!” Zhai Tianyu has been trying to restrain his temper but he could not do so when he heard Ji Yu badmouth the queen and his temper became even worse when he heard Ji Yu call Liu Hui Ying a freak.
He almost struck her face with his hand but stopped in time as he snapped, ” That freak is the one who saved you, you would have died without knowing what happened to you, if not for her. How can you call the woman who saved you a freak?”
Ji Yu who was breathing hard looked at Zhai Tianyu, her heart sinking as she saw the man who has never raised even his voice now raising his hand at her. Even though he did not hit her, he raised his hand with every intention of hitting her right?
” Ha…haha..hahaha…” Ji Yu laughed but this time her eyes were filled with tears as she cried harder than ever as she took several steps back.
Was she a fool? What has she been doing for so many years? She has been trying so hard, all for this man and yet he …he did not appreciate her. In fact, she raised her eyes and peeped at those black pupils that were locked on her and felt her heart sink.
Instead, this man felt burdened by her feelings for him.
Tears started to stream down her cheeks as she covered her face with her hands, shoulders trembling as she cried for her love that ended before she could even confess.
” You promised me,” she said in despair before parting her hands and looking at Zhai Tianyu. Her voice rose as she repeated, ” You promised me, your majesty! You promised me the throne, your body and your child! You cannot take them from me!”
Zhai Tianyu brought his hand down, feeling slightly guilty for raising his hand at Ji Yu but when he heard her say these words, his anger almost surged back into his head. But he still restrained himself as he said, ” I understand your anger consort, but fear not since I am the one in the wrong I will make it up to you. I regret not keeping my promise but I will not let you suffer in the imperial palace, we will be the same as we have been before.”
” But I don’t want to be the same, your majesty,” Ji Yu smiled ruefully as her eyes turned frenzied. ” You broke your promise which means that you owe me, you have to make it up to me on my terms instead of yours.”
” Then what do you want, consort?” Zhai Tianyu asked raising his eyes and looking straight at Ji Yu.
“I want you, your majesty,” she answered as she wiped the tears that were streaking down her cheeks. ” I want you, if you want me to forgive you, then sleep with me. Even if I can’t carry your child, even if I can’t be the Queen—— I want your first to be with me.”
