Jie Chen blankly asked, "In the future... didn't you only like to be free?"
Xiang Ying blinked her delicate eyelashes: "Yes, but I found that with you, I could have everything I wanted."
"Moreover, I found that we share the same goal, you want to overthrow the Emperor, the scum father, and I want to live a comfortable life."
Jie Chen raised his eyebrows: "What's the necessary connection between these two?"
"There is," Xiang Ying said earnestly, "if you overthrow the Emperor, the scum father, Nanyue cannot be without a ruler. Under normal circumstances, you'll most likely ascend to the throne with the support of your followers."
She cupped Jie Chen's cheeks: "You'll certainly make a good Emperor, and a good Emperor can make everyone's life comfortable and at ease. Then I'll be even more at ease."
Xiang Ying dared not even think about how blissful life could be.
