Chapter 218 - 218: So You’ve Been Acting Stupid

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Almost at the moment Shen Yaowei’s mind was in turmoil, Huo Junhan’s expression suddenly changed.

He suddenly looked up at the place where Shen Yaowei was floating and said, “Little fool…”

At the same time, everything around him changed rapidly.

Apart from Shen Yaowei and Huo Junhan, the surrounding scene, including Ouyang Wan’er and Shu Niang, was like a suddenly broken mirror. They were cut into pieces and disappeared.

The heavy darkness swallowed Shen Yaowei and Huo Junhan.

A faint light enveloped Huo Junhan’s body. As the light became stronger and stronger, the originally small person gradually became an adult.

Then, the light disappeared. Huo Junhan, who was in front of Shen Yaowei, no longer looked like a child.

The black robe almost made his slender figure condense with the surrounding darkness. His handsome face was still a little pale, and his light-colored eyes were flowing with a dark light as he stared straight at her.

“Ninth Imperial Uncle…” At this moment, Shen Yaowei couldn’t care less about pretending. She slowly walked forward and grabbed Huo Junhan’s hand.

“So you’ve been pretending to be stupid,” Huo Junhan said softly, but he didn’t shake off her hand.

Shen Yaowei hugged Huo Junhan tightly, her almost ethereal body trembling slightly. “You already know my secret. Don’t even think about getting rid of me in the future.”

Huo Junhan looked down at the girl in his arms and slowly reached out to press the back of her head.

Shen Yaowei could feel a domineering spiritual qi enter her soul, gradually condensing into a body of flesh and blood.

In this space, Huo Junhan was the master. Whoever he wanted to live would live.

Feeling the warmth of the girl in his arms, Huo Junhan gently let go of her. His light eyes looked deeply at Shen Yaowei’s peach blossom-like face. “Tell me, why did you pretend to be stupid and stay by my side?”

“Because I’m afraid that my Ninth Imperial Uncle kept me by his side because he pitied me for being a fool,” Shen Yaowei said as she pinched the corner of her shirt. She couldn’t figure out Huo Junhan’s thoughts back then. Only this reason seemed to make sense. After all, their Shen family was indebted to Huo Junhan.

Who knew if he pitied her for that little favor?

“You’re really a little fool.” Huo Junhan sneered. The light in his eyes was so deep that it was unfathomable. “Now that you’ve seen my secret, how do you think I should deal with you?”

“Ninth Imperial Uncle, that Heartless Curse is nothing.” Shen Yaowei took a step forward and grabbed Huo Junhan’s hand again. She held it tightly. “Trust me. I’ll definitely find a way to remove the Heartless Curse.”

“It seems like you know what the Heartless Curse is.” Huo Junhan grabbed Shen Yaowei’s hand and pulled her into his arms. “Yaoyao, stay here with me. No one will disturb us here.”

With that, he waved his other hand gently. The surrounding darkness instantly disappeared, replaced by beautiful scenery like a paradise.

Shen Yaowei and Huo Junhan were standing in a sea of flowers.

“Yaoyao, are you satisfied with the scenery?” Huo Junhan lowered his head and stared deeply at Shen Yaowei.

At this moment, Shen Yaowei saw the heat and madness in Huo Junhan’s eyes..
