Chapter 420 - Obviously, You Are My Woman (3)

"Was that really necessary?" Tang Moyu asked as she allowed Feng Tianyi to take her hand and lead her to the elevator. "You scared them out of their wits." She pointed out.

"Then I'm glad!" The devil said with a scowl. He didn't appreciate that Yun Zhen was ruining his night with Tang Moyu, even if he wasn't physically present. "They should take my warning seriously if they want to keep their jobs."

Tang Moyu took in his soured expression and couldn't help but smile. She leaned unto him and kissed his cheek, shocking him. There wasn't a huge difference between their heights, but with Tang Moyu's high heel, she didn't need to make an effort to reach his face.

"Thank you for defending me, my devil in shining armor." She winked at him, earning a slight blush on his face. "Eh? You're blushing?" She teased when she saw it.

"I-I am not!" Feng Tianyi exclaimed as he looked away, covering half of his face with one hand. "You are seeing things, Moyu."

Tang Moyu laughed out loud. Something he rarely saw in her, but he enjoyed it. Feng Tianyi felt special that she was willing to lower her guard when it came to him. That she was comfortable being herself in front of him.

"You didn't come back impulsively because you heard about me and Yun Zhen, did you?"

However, her sudden question threw the devil off guard. How was he supposed to admit to her that it bothered him so much that he couldn't wait for his business trip to be over so he could come back to her side?

"N-no…" He muttered, but enough for the empress to hear.

"Oh? You are lying to me now? I thought you said that we should be open and honest to each other, no matter how nasty the truth is?" She countered him, her brow arched as she questioned the devil, who was visibly uncomfortable under her scrutinizing gaze.

Feng Tianyi cursed himself inwardly. Indeed, he was the one who told her that, but it wasn't easy to admit and come clean alright. The empress standing next to him wasn't a person he could easily deceive.

Wasn't this one of the reasons why he was head over heels over her? Although she had lost everything in the past because of him, Tang Moyu hadn't blamed him one bit.

"Fine. I did hear about you and Yun Zhen and I came here as soon as I could." He confessed, but refused her gaze, missing the chance to see the amused glint on the empress's eyes upon his admission.

"I've only been gone for a few days, Moyu. Of course, I was worried." Feng Tianyi's hold on his cane tightened. Although he could already walk on his own without any trouble now, as his legs were slowly regaining the strength they lost over the years, he still kept using his cane out of habit.

"I didn't perceive you as someone who could easily be swayed by rumors, Tianyi." Tang Moyu said with a smile. Perhaps it was weird, even for her, but she was happy to know that he was worried about her even when she wasn't with him.

"The media is overreacting. There's nothing between me and Yun Zhen." She said with all honesty, but it wasn't enough to calm the nerves of the seething devil next to her.

"You say that, but it's obvious that Yun Zhen has his eyes on you, Moyu." Feng Tianyi pointed it out.

The empress stared at him for a moment and sighed. Thankfully, she had already made it clear to Yun Zhen that she wasn't interested in being romantically involved with him. historical

"If this project is making you uncomfortable, I can drop it off, if you want me to." Her relationship with Feng Tianyi was more important than securing her position in the company.

Feng Tianyi snapped his head to face her, which earned a chuckle from the empress.

"No, Moyu. You don't have to." He said with a grim look on his face. "I understand how important the project is for Tang Enterprise." He didn't want her to be in disadvantage just because he couldn't stop himself from eating vinegar when it comes to Yun Zhen.

"Are you sure?" Tang Moyu knew her priorities. And if this collaboration project with Yun Group would put a strain on her relationship with Feng Tianyi, she would rather not have it anymore.

"En. I will just have to accept that you eventually need to see him more these days." He said as if he was trying to convince himself, not Tang Moyu.

Tang Moyu hooked her arm with his left arm and leaned her head against it as they waited for the elevator to reach their destination. The devil's eyes softened at this rare intimacy between them. All the trouble he had flying back here was worth it.

"Thank you for worrying over me, Tianyi. But you don't need to worry about it."

"Moyu, you aren't ashamed of being seen in public with me?" He couldn't help but ask. People would definitely say something about her dating her ex-fiance's brother.

"I wasn't bothered with you being bound on the wheelchair. What makes you think I'll leave you just because another guy stated his intention or because I was being judged by the public?" She countered him.

Feng Tianyi didn't have any words to refute that. She'd been honest with him from the start and he had to trust her words. Sighing to himself, he leaned forward and kissed the top of her head.

"Sorry. I should have known better. I was upset."

"Oh? How is it that the great demon lord was angered by a mere mortal like me?"

Feng Tianyi could only laugh at his foolishness.

"You were spotted in public with him. How can I not lose my cool? Moyu… please don't let Yun Zhen take you away from me."

When Tang Moyu said nothing, he continued.

"Yun Zhen's future wife? Huh! Obviously, you are my woman."
