Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

Chapter 214



Ye Mu was utterly speechless. The young teenager in front of her was very different compared to the first time they’ve met. He had become taller, strong, more handsome, and dangerous. She was the only one who continued to treat him like a child. She believed that his confession was merely a joke, and nothing more.

In the end, Ye Mu returned to her residence in a daze. Her face burned like she had a fever when she recalled that she had just been kissed by Mo Linyuan.

She was taken advantage of by a brat!

Well…she couldn’t call him a child anymore. The possessive and overbearing attitude he had shown towards her exceeded her expectations. Do all children in this era mature this quickly? He was only fifteen, yet he already knew how to kiss a girl! The feudal society was a really bad influence on the children!

Although thousands of thoughts race through her mind, one of those thoughts particularly stood out. She did not feel disgusted by his kiss. The scent that Mo Linyuan exuded smelled good. It was not an ambergris scent, rather it smelled more like an orchid.

After Ye Mu left, Mo Linyuan took out the protection amulet she had placed inside his fragrance sachet. Ye Mu still remembered him even though she went out to play with another man today. This knowledge made all the anger and unhappiness he was feeling earlier this morning vanish like smoke in thin air. He carefully wore the amulet around his neck and tucked under her clothes. When he recalled Ye Mu’s flushed expression when she pushed him away and fled, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

It’s fine, he will give her a little more time.

After the Silent Master returned to the temple, he didn’t return the cloth wrapped around his head. Instead, he secretly hid the cloth away.

Today was the first time he stole something, but he believed that he probably won’t steal anything else in the future. He also received his first gift today. He liked the gift a lot.

He put the glazed lantern and the blue cloth together. Under the flame from candlelight, his eyes became more and more gentle and he was even smiling.

But the smile on his face suddenly faded when he recalled something. He put the two items that were in front of him into a box. It seemed like he wanted to lock and seal up the memory he made today.

He didn’t deserve to possess such beautiful things. What he experienced and received today, was a gift from Buddha.

The following day, Mo Linyuan started the royal court early. When he was recuperating after being poisoned, he left most of the affairs related to the royal court to Prime Minister Wen. People could smell that something fishy was going on. When he returned to court, many people thought that he would take back his powers from Prime Minister Wen, but surprisingly, Mo Linyuan did not do that. On the contrary, he repeatedly praised the Prime Minister for doing the job so well.

The three great families originally made a pact to trust each other, so that the emperor will not be able to break up their relationships with each other. However, some of the members from the three great families were a little dissatisfied when they saw how the emperor had continuously praised Wen. Wen didn’t try to explain himself at all either.

The emperor had severely suppressed the three great families’ powers. Many of the policies and laws he passed were directed at influential families by preventing them from continuing to monopolize certain businesses and prevent them from gaining more influence. Recently, these policies weren’t enforced as harshly as it usually was because of Prime Minister Wen. Many people suspected that Wen had poisoned the emperor in hopes that he could control the emperor as his puppet.

The Empress Dowager was also very unhappy when she saw this. She believed that it was the Wen Family who had poisoned the emperor because the young emperor usually didn’t allow a speck of sand to dirty his eyes. It was suspicious how the young emperor treated the Wen Family so kindly. Therefore, when the royal court ended, the Empress Dowager blocked Wen from leaving!

“Wen, what tricks are you trying to play? How could I don’t understand what’s going on?”

Although Wen looked much thinner than he was before, there was still a glint of shrewdness in his eyes as he said, “What is the Empress Dowager talking about? Did this official do something that displeased you?”

“Bah!” The Empress Dowager saw that there was no one else in the Royal Garden, so she immediately wrapped her arms around one of his arms, “How long has it been since you’ve last visited me? Tell me, who is the woman that has snared your soul and heart?”
