Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 2716: Chapter 2711: Desire and Disappointment

This... contains a lot of information.

The scene that was originally quite warm was turned upside down by a single sentence.

Fu Qian did not think he was overthinking; the ”remarkable offspring” allegedly mentioned by Jose Laria should match perfectly with what the young Queen said—even though she appeared to be his spouse.

”...I don’t understand what you mean.”

The Queen’s understanding nature was once again demonstrated, she paused for a moment before quickly raising her head to look over.

The voice struggled to remain calm, but the stiff fingers exposed the turbulence within.

”You better understand, otherwise I will be displeased for having to explain further.”

It’s impossible not to notice this, but Mr. Jose demonstrated well what it means to have an unpredictable imperial heart.

This inadvertent confession seemed not to anger him at all, he was simply discontented with possibly having to use more words.

”But...”

The Queen was evidently engaged in intense mental conflict, instinctively wanting to defend herself.

”It’s really not my fault—”

However, Jose’s lack of reaction seemed to quickly make her face reality, and after a brief pause, she gave a classic response.

”I said I know, moreover you’ve already been very careful to hide, considering my feelings.”

Unfortunately, she was interrupted before she finished speaking; Jose’s lines continued to be strange, even sounding unlike sarcasm.

”...Are you really not angry?”

After a not-short period of silence, the Queen seemed finally to accept this fact, cautiously confirming Jose’s attitude.

”I said it doesn’t matter, it’s just a pity.”

Indeed, no storm occurred, Jose’s tone was unchanged, he even emphasized again the pity, seemingly truly expecting it before.

”But...why?”

However, such an attitude rather instilled a feeling of some negative emotions in the involved party.

With slightly heavy breathing, the woman nearly wanted to retract her hand.

”Because it doesn’t matter, you also said he’s a troublesome guy.”

Jose gestured with his chin towards outside.

”Among the people who arrived today, nearly a third have gone through the same situation with him, why do you think I would mind one more?”

...

Tsk tsk, indeed renowned for charm far and wide?

Yet a brief exchange was excessively brilliant, and at that moment Fu Qian could easily imagine the image of a handsome and elegant nobleman.

With the validation of his biological father, it’s evident the historical rumors are not false.

A young man named Don Juan was not only charismatic but also the dream lover of many of the opposite sex.

Even himself indulged in wandering amidst flowers, leaving many romantic debts.

Of course, considering that Mr. He Sai mentioned ”what a pity” twice consecutively, it doesn’t rule out the possibility of deliberate indulgence.

With few descendants, it wouldn’t hurt to cast a wide net and try various combinations.

To produce one more offspring is equivalent to drawing another prize.

”I understand, I see... then sorry to disappoint you still.”

However, the coldness manifested within this posture was quite disheartening.

The young wife beside him, in the blink of an eye, had lost her color.

And during the empty-eyed ”apology,” she seemed to forget what predicament she had just escaped.

Perhaps this is the complexity of human nature?

”It’s okay, after all, you’re not the first to disappoint me.”

Jose was still relaxed, showing no intention of accommodating emotional demands—

Yet, a turning point always appears inadvertently, this harmonious atmosphere halted immediately.

”What are you?”

The voice suddenly became stern, Jose issued a cold inquiry.

...

Ah—

Being with someone akin to a tiger cannot be more than this, the sudden interrogation left the Queen nearly stunned.

Fortunately, she instinctively covered her mouth, forcibly stifling the startled exclamation.

”I... I am...”

Upon realizing the content of the last inquiry, the delicate face completely collapsed, speaking to herself and dared not answer, seemingly about to faint.

Can’t blame her, this rollercoaster indeed was a bit stimulating.

As a spectator, Fu Qian did not disdain her performance.

No doubt, Jose’s final sentence is easily understood as a successful inducement, abruptly turning hostile.

[Speak up, I won’t be angry]

[Don’t you trust my words?]

[I promise]

This kind also counts as classic remarks, often appearing in similar plots.

And completely falling into the abyss again, the young Queen’s just-budding discontent instantly vanished without a trace, beginning to worry about her life risk.

”Shut up!”

Sadly, Jose didn’t even allow an opportunity for explanation, indicating with an increasingly heavy tone for her to close her mouth.

I...

Though her mind seemed to have stopped thinking, the dazed Queen still complied, suppressing even the sobs.

”Who exactly... are you?”

Unfortunately, this weakness was not acknowledged; Jose not only continued to make his tone heavy, but he also didn’t even look at her, as if talking to another.

...

Worthy of the legendary Divine Human Royal Court, cross-dimensional communication is universal Skill, huh?

If not speaking to the young wife, then who?

Since the beginning, it inclined towards Jose genuinely not concerning about his wife’s matters, yet the sudden interrogation still made Fu Qian as a viewer feel it was splendid.

In such a private location, during such private dialogue, having a third person indeed feels unjustifiable—though there actually was a third.

This increasingly stern inquiry, could it possibly target some apparatus being installed on herself?

Once you open your mind, the déjà vu becomes intensely so.

Jose is not changing faces but rather suddenly discovering something he truly cares about, a threat from within his body—ah!

This time, the woman’s scream finally couldn’t be suppressed, witnessing the sudden appearance of a bloody light, Jose’s right hand suddenly plunged two fingers deep into his waist, then fiercely yanked out.

”Come out for me!”

...

See, it has nothing to do with the young stepmother.

Fu Qian was certainly not the one pulled out; instead, watching Jose’s actions at that moment felt very much worth the ticket price.

Such behavior proved the preceding judgment enough.

Indeed, it’s not feigned magnanimity, Jose truly didn’t care about the wife’s recent confession, the regret was also sincere.

And the target of that stern inquiry unexpectedly came from within his body.

Yet, ultimately there seemed no way to break the dimensional wall, this vicious action didn’t affect the viewing experience, seemingly still targeting the material level.

Can see that the blood-stained hand held a chunk of flesh the size of two knuckles.

In tightly grasped condition, it was pulsating like a heart.
