Detective Ghost Empress

318 Want to eat her

Zhai Tianyu did not know when he started to incline towards Liu Hui Ying was it when he first saw her when she looked at him right in the eyes without even batting an eye, confident and resplendent as ever? Or was it when he saw her dancing with the swords and interrogating the maid? He had no idea when his heart suddenly tipped in the direction of this woman whom he was supposed to fall for but the thing about feelings was that they happened before anyone could stop them.

He did not believe in a thing like love at first sight, since love faded and so did attraction. What he felt for Liu Hui Ying was different, it was neither love nor attraction, it was beyond that point where he wanted to safeguard this woman and keep her close. He did not want to see her get hurt but at the same time, he did not have the heart to keep her locked up which was why crazy.

Never before he has felt something like this for a woman, he wanted to keep her by his side but at the same time he did not want to see her lose her smile which was why even though he knew that he was taking a risk by siding with Liu Hui Ying today by not visiting the Ji family, he was willing to take the risk because he would rather face the wrath of the Ji family and Ji Yu instead of watching Liu Hui Ying be caught by someone and be executed because she was possessed by a ghost.

“How did you know that I need blood to calm my sister down?” Liu Hui Ying asked as she looked at Zhai Tianyu, even though her sister was no longer as aggressive as before she was very much awake inside her, she could feel the presence of her sister who was waiting and bidding for her time before trying again to take over her body.

“It was when you were interrogating the maid,” Zhai Tianyu replied with a slight tilt of his head as he turned his head and looked at the gloomy sky through the carriage window that was running past the streets of the imperial city. ” I saw you losing your temper back then and you looked slightly different which was why I thought that something was up with you back then, of course, I had no idea what was the matter with you but now that I know the truth about you, I was able to connect the two and two together.”

Zhai Tianyu was fairly observant which was why he was able to pick up the changes in Liu Hui Ying back then, even though the woman who stood in front of him was Liu Hui Ying. He had a feeling that the woman was different which was why he kept a close eye on the Queen wanting to see the truth about her and when he found out that there lived another soul inside of her body, he was able to make the connection between the two.

Liu Hui Ying did not ask how he was able to make the connection because at this moment her entire head was buzzing with just the pressure of reining control of her sister’s soul who wanted nothing more than to kill the man and eliminate the danger that was around Liu Hui Ying and of course Zhai Tianyu being a man was also under the danger of getting killed because her sister was some reason unknown to her seemed to have targeted Zhai Tianyu as an even bigger threat than the man who placed the blue roses in front of Liu Fei Fei’s tomb.

‘ Why is she acting like this?’ Liu Hui Ying thought in her head as she looked at Zhai Tianyu who was looking outside the window but when he caught her looking at him, he turned around and smiled at her. He did not seem to be in an offensive mode and did not look like he was going to kill her either so why was her sister struggling against her? And what was with this sudden annoyance and urge to end Zhai Tianyu?

” You look a bit annoyed my queen, what is the matter?” Zhai Tianyu seemed to have sensed her discomfort which was why he asked her why she was looking at him with those eyes that were covered with a thin layer of murderous intent though it was completely controlled and that was how Zhai Tianyu knew that he was in no danger of being attacked, not that he couldn’t subdue this woman now that he was prepared to do so.

.....

” My sister seemed to be getting more and more agitated your majesty and for some reason, she has taken you as an opponent,” this was something that Liu Hui Ying could not understand, why was his sister treating Zhai Tianyu like an enemy? Even if he was a man, he has helped the two of them just now!

Liu Hui Ying raised her head and awkwardly smiled at Zhai Tianyu before saying, “Don’t worry though, I will not attack you, your majesty —-maybe it’s because my sister just hates men in general which is why she took you as a threat, it’s funny given that I can totally take you down.”

Zhai Tianyu’s eyes flickered as he smiled and nodded, ” You are right about that my queen, I am simply a small weed in front of you and you can crush me whenever you want.”

‘ Looks like his late sister-in-law was not as foolish when it came to the matter of men and woman, she seemed to have realised that I am the biggest threat to her sister since I want to eat her…. literally.’ Zhai Tianyu thought in his head and maybe his emotions leaked from his smile because the murderous intent in Liu Hui Ying’s eyes turned even more severe.
