Chapter 1969: This Attendant Is Like a Roach

Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes. He stared at Attendant Zhou’s face and laughed.

“Your body recovers this fast?” Zhao Xu put some vegetables on Attendant Zhou’s plate. “Don’t act brave if you don’t feel well. Just take good care of yourself.”

Attendant Zhou put down her chopsticks, stood up, and twirled. With her fluttering sleeves, she looked like a fairy dancing in a jade lake.

“Your Majesty, look at this attendant. Don’t I look completely fine?” Attendant Zhou stopped. “Everyone’s physique is different. This attendant is like a roach who can’t be beaten to death.”

“A roach?” Zhao Xu tilted his head slightly, “What’s that?”

“An insect with strong vitality: a cockroach,” said Attendant Zhou. Then she immediately realized her mistake. It was dinnertime, why was she bringing up cockroaches?

The more desperate one was, the more likely they were to make mistakes. She quickly changed the subject. “Your Majesty, allow this attendant to dance for you.”

As Attendant Zhou spoke, she started dancing. Although her dancing wasn’t as good as that of a professional, she had a good figure and temperament, so her performance was passable.

As she spun around, she accidentally stumbled into Zhao Xu’s arms.

Zhao Xu wrapped a hand around Attendant Zhou’s waist. As she sat on his thigh, struggling to get up, Zhao Xu’s arm tightened. With his other hand, he lifted her chin slightly.

Attendant Zhou’s brows were affectionate, her eyes glimmered, and she stared at Zhao Xu with clear infatuation.

“Can your body handle it?” Zhao Xu asked, his voice low.

Attendant Zhou bowed her head shyly. “This attendant will be fine.”

Zhao Xu immediately picked Attendant Zhou up and went over to the bed. She wrapped her arms around Zhao Xu’s neck and rested her head on his chest. She was both relieved and excited. This could finally get her out of her predicament!

After the two disrobed, Zhao Xu kissed Attendant Zhou and ran his hand over her back until he came across the shallow scar of her recent wound.

“This scar was because of me.” Zhao Xu turned Attendant Zhou over and kissed the scar directly.

Attendant Zhou’s body froze. In a breathy tone she murmured, “Your Majesty.”

Zhao Xu stared straight at the wound, his expression unreadable.

It was a beautiful night.

During the customary greetings the next morning, Ning Shu addressed Attendant Zhou directly. “Are you not feeling well? I heard that you fainted after leaving the Palace of Prolonged Autumn. Why did you still attend to the emperor?”

The other concubines were eyeing Attendant Zhou resentfully while wringing their handkerchiefs.

Now that Attendant Zhou attended to the emperor, she regained some confidence. She stood up, bowed, and said, “This attendant has almost fully recovered.”

“Attendant Zhou must have an incredible physique. It only took half a month for the stab wound to heal.” Ning Shu’s expression remained indifferent. “Now that you’re in good health, you must serve the emperor well.”

“As per the Empress Mother’s instructions, this attendant will definitely serve the emperor well and add many new leaves to the family tree.” With those words, Attendant Zhou vented all the anger that had been building within her.

The empress always made things hard for those with a dignified and virtuous appearance. As long as Zhao Xu could promote her even one more rank, she would be rewarded with a perfect body. And that would leave her one step closer to her goal of ruling the harem.

She would climb up the ladder slowly.

After attending to the emperor, Attendant Zhou was filled with confidence. She was completely convinced that her future would be bright.

Ning Shu raised her eyebrows. It was just a single night of attending to the emperor. What was she so smug about? One shouldn’t believe a word of what a man says in bed.
