Chapter 298: What Does the Empress Like to Eat Most?

“Wife, do you want to try it?”

Nie Chen agreed without any hesitation.

The Emotion Flower could sense the sincere affection between the two.

No matter how formidable the Emotion Flower was, it served as a test.

However, such a test was nothing to fear for the open and honest Nie Chen.

“Hmph, it seems you’re not feeling guilty.”

“However, don’t let a pebble come out then.”

Chu Qingyue snorted haughtily.

“Don’t worry, if it’s a pebble, I’ll directly swallow it.”

Nie Chen was quite confident about this.

The two arrived together before the Emotion Flower.

The Sacred Lands of Fanhua were indeed worthy of their reputation.

The mountains were filled with colorful flowers, swaying gently in the breeze.

Like waves, they continuously undulated, resembling a breathtaking painting scroll.

Before the Emotion Flower, Chu Qingyue’s cascading hair fluttered slightly in the wind.

Her flawless face, although cold, held a hint of anticipation.

It seemed she had long been interested in the Emotion Flower.

“But wife, what should we do?”

Nie Chen asked.

Although the Emotion Flower didn’t rely on appearances, it could directly sense the true feelings of the two people who came before it.

However, to express emotions, one still needed to do something symbolic.

“Well… how about this Empress asks you some questions as a test?”

Chu Qingyue said softly, as if she had already thought of it.

“Questions? No problem, ask away.”

Nie Chen patted his chest, appearing unconcerned.

After all, in this world, if he were to rank second in understanding the Empress, no one would dare to claim first place.

“Then I’ll ask?”

A gentle breeze blew, and Chu Qingyue coughed lightly, as if preparing herself.

After all, although she didn’t feel anything before, proactively asking questions about them was still a little embarrassing.

After a moment of hesitation, she finally suppressed her embarrassment and lowered her voice slightly:

“Do you know… what kind of animal this Empress is comparatively interested in?”

“Cats, naturally.”

Nie Chen answered without hesitation:

“Although you haven’t kept any in your bedchamber these days, whenever you see other disciples’ cats, your eyes light up.”

“If it weren’t for your status, you would have long since gone up to pet them with the disciples.”

“Unexpectedly correct.”

Chu Qingyue nodded calmly on the surface, but felt her heart beating a little faster.

After all, even she hadn’t imagined that Nie Chen would actually notice such a small matter as secretly watching cats.

She was still a little unwilling to give up:

“Then what about the clothes this Empress usually wears? Don’t you men never…”

“Blue.”

Nie Chen answered extremely quickly:

“Mostly light blue immortal dresses, but occasionally you’ll wear white.”

“Wife, you seem to prefer blue, and you never need any rouge or vulgar powder for makeup.”

“But only once, when you first went on a date with me, did you secretly apply a touch of blush.”

At this moment, Chu Qingyue’s gaze even paused slightly.

Immediately afterward, she felt her heart beating so fast that it was almost impossible to control.

‘How could this be!’

She had clearly heard before that men’s mouths were deceitful.

Men might say they love you on the surface, but in reality, no one would care.

No one would care about the things a woman liked, nor would they care about a woman’s clothes and makeup, but they would pretend to care.

But Nie Chen seemed to remember everything clearly.

Chu Qingyue pursed her lips, attempting to break through:

“Then what is this Empress’s favorite flower?”

“The Rainbow Nirvana Flower I gave you on our first date.”

“What’s your favorite musical instrument to play?”

“The Xiao?”

“When is my… period?”

“Around the 8th of every month, wife, remember to drink brown sugar water, so you don’t catch a cold.”

Chu Qingyue: “Hateful!”

“I don’t believe it, then… then, you should at least know the color of my pajamas, right!”

Nie Chen: “…”

“Uh, wife doesn’t wear clothes to sleep.”

Chu Qingyue: “…”

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward, and she couldn’t help but blush, overwhelmed with bashfulness.

All of Nie Chen’s answers indeed far exceeded her expectations.

Chu Qingyue turned her head and remained silent for a while.

But suddenly, she leaned close to Nie Chen’s ear, her voice dropping to a whisper, almost inaudible:

“Then what is this Empress’s favorite thing to eat?”

“Favorite thing to eat?”

Nie Chen had answered all the previous questions without pressure.

But this question made him ponder.

After all, with countless delicacies, not everyone had a concept of a “favorite food.”

Moreover, the Empress never seemed to show a particularly different fondness for a specific food.

“Hehe, you finally don’t know this one, right?”

Chu Qingyue raised her mouth slightly triumphantly.

“Um… what is it?”

Nie Chen was slightly puzzled, truly unable to figure out how to answer.

But he suddenly noticed Chu Qingyue’s dodging gaze, and her eyes seemed to be filled with hidden emotions.

She even… appeared shy.

“Alright, this Empress will tell you.”

This time, Chu Qingyue completely lost the coldness she had maintained before.

Knowing what the answer was, her voice unexpectedly trembled slightly.

“Strange, what is it…”

Just as Nie Chen was puzzled, Chu Qingyue finally leaned close to his ear.

Her breath was like orchids, slightly heated:

“This Empress, my favorite thing to eat is… you.”

With these words, embarrassment completely filled her heart.

She hurriedly turned her head, somewhat at a loss.

“This is…”

Nie Chen was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

He instantly smiled wryly.

He never imagined that the one he couldn’t guess was unexpectedly a cheesy pick-up line from Chu Qingyue.

However, although those words sounded cheesy, when spoken by the flawlessly beautiful Empress, they were exceptionally alluring.

“Wife, do you know what I like to eat most?”

Just at this moment, Nie Chen suddenly asked in return.

“What?”

Chu Qingyue responded subconsciously.

“You too.”

And soon, Nie Chen’s voice rang out beside her exquisite and slightly reddened ear.

Unexpectedly, these words instantly made her burst out laughing:

“Hey, that’s so cheesy!”

“Weren’t you too, Empress?”

“How could that be, I wasn’t!”

“Really?”

“Of course!”

“Then why is your face a little red, Empress?”

“Red…it’s not.”

Touching her slightly heated face, Chu Qingyue hurriedly tried to explain:

“I…this is natural!”

Nie Chen: “I believe you, my foot.”

Chu Qingyue was endlessly ashamed: “Hateful, believe it or not, this Empress will really eat you!”

Nie Chen smiled. “Is this ‘eating’ you’re talking about, serious?”

The two who had intended to move the Emotion Flower seemed to be quarreling, leaving the surrounding disciples dumbfounded.

But just at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly flashed on the Emotion Flower.
