Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler

Long waited for the whole night, but his empress didn’t come back!

Lying on the big bed, Long was very depressed.

They just bickered over something. How could he even not come back?

That was too much!

Long felt that he was deeply hurt!

They would leave early in the morning. Long hadn’t slept all night, so he was out of sorts.

When Liu and Ouyang came over, they saw Long was yawning lazily.

Liu raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong with you?”

Long looked at him sadly.

That look almost made Liu get goose bumps!

“Can you stop looking at me like that? It’s really scary.”

Hearing that, Long became more upset.

Liu coughed. “Well, tell me what happened.”

Long curled his lips. “Did you see Qingzhou when you came?”

“Hmm? Shi Qingzhou?” Liu shook his head. “I didn’t see him.”

Ouyang also said, “I didn’t see him, either. What happened?”

Long curled his lips and became more depressed. “What do you think?”

“Uh…” Liu blinked. “Is it that Shi Qingzhou fell in love with another man and abandoned you?”

“Can’t you say something nice? How can you be so mean?” Long’s face darkened.

Ouyang shrugged. “Don’t blame us. Judging from your expression, that’s the only possibility.”

Long got angrier. “Get lost!”

He lost his temper from embarrassment! Ouyang and Liu looked at each other, thinking like that.

“Ahem.” Liu coughed and then said, “Where is Shi Qingzhou?”

Long looked at them very sadly. “Why did I ask you if I know that?”

“Didn’t you ask the Shadow Guardians to look for him?”

Long curled his lips. “I haven’t had time yet.”

“Hmm? Then just ask them to do it. We are going to leave soon.”

“Mhmm,” Long responded, “I must do it now…”

Otherwise, he wouldn’t know where his empress had gone!

Long was heartbroken. He didn’t expect that Shi would not come back at night…

The Shadow Guardians were quite efficient. No, it was not accurate. The truth was… Shi finally appeared.

The Shadow Guardians went to look for Shi, but he returned just a few minutes later.

Long turned to look at him at once and sadness fill his eyes.

Without looking at Long, Shi just asked the Shadow Guardians to deliver the food.

Liu felt that the atmosphere there was a bit weird, so he didn’t want to stay. He said, “We’re leaving now. We’ll join you later when we set off.”

Naturally, Long didn’t ask them to stay, because he was anxious to have some private time with Shi.

After Liu and Ouyang left, Long said, “Where did you go last night?”

Hearing the words, Shi finally turned his head, but didn’t say anything.

Long frowned. “Qingzhou…”

At last, Shi said coldly. “I just went to do something.”

Long blinked. “What did you do?”

Shi turned away and didn’t answer.

Long took a deep breath. “Shi Qingzhou!”

Shi lowered his head and still didn’t speak.

Long took a deep breath again. He walked to Shi and pulled him to his feet.

“Qingzhou!”

Shi blinked and turned away.

Long got a little angry. “You won’t talk to me, will you? Okay, then just keep silent.”

After that, Long walked outside angrily.

Shi pressed his lips together. After a moment, he dropped his eyes.

Later, the group of people set off. Long sat in the carriage and Shi rode a horse.

Liu and Ouyang also rode horses.

After taking a look at each other, Liu and Ouyang felt that the problem was a bit serious.

When it was almost time for lunch, the carriage stopped.

Long decided to eat in the carriage.

Liu sent him the food and said softly, “Hey, what the hell is going on? Stop messing around. I’ve never seen you guys like this…”

Long’s face was gloomy. “It’s okay. Leave me alone.”

Liu shrugged, “Well, you said it yourself. I won’t care about you.”

Long snorted. “Yes, I said it.”

Liu shook his head. “Alright, I’ll leave you alone.”

After that, Liu put down the food and went out.

Long ate the food and found it was tasteless. He really had no appetite at all!

After having lunch and drinking some water, Long resumed his journey.

Out of sight, out of mind. In the carriage, Long closed his eyes.

He didn’t expect that he actually fell asleep!

When Long woke up sleepily, he found that it was already dark.

Long frowned slightly.

At this time, the curtain of the carriage was pulled back and Liu appeared again.

“You’re awake?”

Long looked at him and yawned tiredly. “Did I fell asleep?”

“Yes, you were asleep.” Liu was positive. “It’s already dark. Didn’t you feel it?”

Long curled his lips. “How can I feel it?”

How could he feel anything when he was asleep?

Long thought he was in the right, so he said confidently. Liu didn’t know how to respond.

“It’s time for dinner. You can come out.”

“Oh”. After saying that, Long got out of the carriage. Maybe because he slept for too long, he staggered when he stepped down. Fortunately, Liu was right beside him and immediately held him.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Long shook his head. “Well, I slept for too long, so I’m a little dizzy.”
