"So… Li Meili and your brother. I never thought that Beixuan was talking about her all this time." Feng Tianyi said as he sat at the end of the couch, giving Tang Moyu's foot a massage. 

The little buns were seated on the carpeted floor, watching tonight's movie on the television. Their eyes glued on the screen, oblivious to what the a.d.u.l.ts were talking about. 

Tang Moyu laid on her back, an arm dr.a.p.ed over her eyes. She moved her arm slightly and cracked an eye open to look at him. What the hell was he talking about? Did Beixuan tell him about Li Meili without knowing it was her? 

Feng Tianyi laughed seeing her annoyed expression. 

"Don't look at me like that, Moyu. I swear I didn't know until Beixuan told me tonight." He defended himself. There's no reason for her to suspect him of keeping the information from her when he wasn't aware of it as well. 

Tang Beixuan had offered to drive Li Meili home. He wanted to use this chance to talk to her in private, now that Tang Moyu had made her opinion clear regarding their affair. 

"No wonder Meili hadn't told me anything. I can't really blame her though." The empress admitted. 

In fact, she understood where her best friend was coming from. When she first found out about Qin Jiran's identity as Feng Tianyi, hadn't she also kept this information from Li Meili because she wasn't sure how her friend would take the news? 

Feng Tianyi hummed in agreement. He really couldn't give any comment about it, since he didn't know much about Tang Moyu's best friend, other than the fact that they were extremely close to each other. 

He was glad that Tang Moyu had someone like Li Meili in her life and if there's someone he could trust to protect the empress while he wasn't around, it would definitely be Li Meili. If he hadn't witnessed the duo's capability himself, he might have underestimated Li Meili's fighting skills.

The woman was extremely adept in fighting with a stick. Feng Tianyi had noticed that Li Meili used sticks when she was fighting Han Shaohui's men alongside Tang Moyu. She had fast and powerful strikes that left the men begging for their lives. In contrast, Tang Moyu dealt with the others barehanded. 

It was only later that he found out from Gu Yuyao that Li Meili had mastered the arts of Arnis, which was considered as one of the best martial arts for self-defense. Li Meili had kept her gracefulness as she executed the powerful strikes to disable her opponents. 

Only then the devil completely understood why the Gu heiress wasn't worried about the two when they were caught in street fights and brawls during their night outs. 

"Are you still worried?" He asked Tang Moyu before placing her foot back on the ground and started working on the other one. 

"No," came the empress's prompt reply. "They are old enough to know what's right and what's wrong. They're responsible for their own choices. Who am I to judge them? I can only hope that they would be happy, if this is really what they want." 

Feng Tianyi couldn't stop the grin that spread on his lips upon hearing her words. Ah, he was really fortunate to meet such an understanding woman. Tang Moyu was really a good person. A bit overbearing at times, but she cherished those people around her. So different from the perfect empress persona as the public perceived her to be. 

"What's so funny?" Tang Moyu scowled at him. 

The devil shook his head and allowed her to sit up. 

"Nothing. Just wondering how you were able to resolve problems without breaking a sweat. Beixuan was worried sick that you would blame Li Meili earlier. He was literally begging me to mediate and to calm you down. I guess my help wasn't needed this time." He shrugged. 

"You also think I would be against them being together?" Tang Moyu raised a brow after she slipped her feet back into her comfy slippers. 

"Of course not! I know you will talk about it with Li Meili and it's not on your personality to get involved with your friends' relationsh.i.p.s." 

Hadn't she refused Xu Wenyang's offer when he sought the empress for help to convince Lin Qianrou not to divorce him? Still, even without monetary gain, she was able to indirectly help them discuss their differences to avoid getting a divorce. 

Tang Moyu cared for her friends and wouldn't want them to suffer just because of her, so why would she be against Li Meili dating her brother? Even if things didn't work out between Li Meili and her brother, what Tang Moyu felt for the two of them would remain the same. 

She was about to get up from her seat when Xiao Bao turned to face her. 

"Mommy, aren't you going to sleep here?" He asked. "You've haven't slept here for days." He blinked his obsidian eyes at her. 

Tang Moyu froze in her seat and looked at her son with surprise. Ever since that night when she fled from Feng Tianyi, she'd been sleeping at the main house after making sure her twins were sleeping comfortably. 

"Ah, that's because Uncle Beixuan must be really sad sleeping there alone, so Mommy spent her nights at home. Why? Do you wanna go back with Mommy tonight?" She asked curiously. 

Ever since Feng Tianyi moved in with them, her two little buns had claimed the bedroom across his room as their own, spending their nights with the devil and hadn't gone back with Tang Moyu to the main house. 

There were times the empress thought that her little buns had forgotten about her and preferred Feng Tianyi's company over hers. No wonder these two would always listen to whatever he said instead of her. 

Little Star shook her head. 

"No, Mommy. Uncle is already a big boy. He can manage on his own, but we can't leave Daddy Ji. Didn't we promise we'll take care of him?"
