Watching the two figures flee in a panic, Chu Yanli was so mortified she wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground. She glared and snapped, "Your parents are here—why didn't you tell me in advance? I'm so embarrassed I could die!"
"Did you give me a chance to say anything?" Chen Mo crossed his arms over his chest and said irritably, "Now you know what embarrassment is. What were you thinking last night? If the Empress finds out about this, who knows how big a mess it'll cause!"
Chu Yanli's cheeks flushed even redder. Feeling guilty, she muttered, "But I really couldn't help it… At worst, the Empress can be the main wife and I'll be the concubine. When you two are doing your thing I'll help push from behind, and if she gets pregnant I'll wait on her during confinement…"
"You really are quite… righteous…"
The corner of Chen Mo's mouth twitched. He was completely helpless against this woman.
