Chapter 93 - The Empress Shares Her Troubles

The moment the stream went live, a huge wave of bullet comments quickly floated across the screen:

【Your Majesty the Empress, you're finally streaming!】

【Why are you always taking days off? There's no such thing as such a lazy Empress!】

【I heard Her Majesty the Empress was sick?】

【Since you're streaming today, you must be better, right?】

Looking at the complaints and concerns in the bullet comments, Long Yue's heart felt warm.

So even in this world, there are so many people who care about her…

Suddenly, she felt that these mortals who always loved to tease her weren't so hateful after all, and were actually kind of cute…

“Apologies. This Empress has been busy dealing with other matters recently. Now that they're handled, I have made you all worry.”

Long Yue smiled happily and sincerely apologized to the crowd of mortals.

【Forget it, forget it. If you were busy, it can't be helped.】

【Her Majesty the Empress has apologized, what more is there to say? We forgive you, Your Majesty the Empress.】

【A real apology requires showing your belly!】

【No! I don't want to see the Empress's round tummy! It'll shatter my illusions! Yamete!】

【…】

The stream chat, as always, began to tease her. Long Yue was so angry her brow twitched.

I take back what I said before! This bunch of hateful mortals aren't cute at all!

“You people…!”

“Forget it. This Empress is in a good mood today, so I won't bicker with you.”

Halfway through her sentence, Long Yue suppressed her anger and generously forgave the crowd.

This, in turn, aroused the crowd's suspicion and curiosity.

In the past, the Empress would have flown into a rage long ago. How is she so mild-mannered today?

【Your Majesty the Empress, did something good happen recently? You seem so happy today?】

“N-No, it's nothing special…”

Seeing the question, Long Yue thought back to last night and quickly tried to cover it up shyly.

However, her shy, gentle tone and the irrepressible smile at the corners of her mouth had already given her away…

Instantly, a pile of guesses flooded the stream chat:

【Something's fishy!】

【Your Majesty the Empress, hurry and tell us, what good thing happened?】

【Did you win the lottery? Get rich?】

【I get the feeling Her Majesty the Empress is in love...】

【…】

With her secret thought hit right on the head, Long Yue's pretty face flushed red, and she fell into a shy silence.

And this silence was undoubtedly a public, tacit admission.

In an instant, the bullet comments exploded:

【Ah, Her Majesty the Empress is really in love?!】

【No wonder Her Majesty the Empress suddenly became so gentle...】

【Who! Who abducted our Empress!】

【It can't be the Demon Sovereign next door, can it?】

【…】

Seeing that the crowd had already guessed, Long Yue decided she might as well not hide it anymore. She secretly glanced at Lin Fan, who was immersed in his writing in the bedroom, and then quietly shared her troubles with the stream chat:

“Actually, This Empress has known him for a long time, but our relationship wasn't very good before. We would always end up fighting whenever we met…”

【Ah, fighting?】

【That man hit you, Your Majesty the Empress?】

【Her Majesty the Empress is so cute, how could he bring himself to hit her?】

【You're not breaking up with a man like that? Are you saving him for Chinese New Year?】

【Your Majesty the Empress, dox his ID number! We'll help you crusade against him!】

【…】

The people in the stream chat were filled with righteous indignation, letting out a wave of denunciation.

This, in turn, made Long Yue a little embarrassed.

“Um… actually, This Empress was the one unilaterally chasing and hitting him…”

The stream chat: “…”

As soon as she said this, everyone in the stream chat fell silent.

Hearing the word 'fighting,' everyone had subconsciously assumed the other party was hitting the Empress. They never imagined the truth was the other way around…

【Her Majesty the Empress unilaterally beating up the other party... I completely did not expect that…】

【Me neither…】

【I couldn't tell, Her Majesty the Empress is pretty violent!】

【Scared!】

【Her Majesty the Empress didn't use violence to force him to date her, did she?】

“O-Of course not!”

Long Yue's pretty face flushed red as she hurriedly retorted.

She, the great Empress of the Immortal Realm, had never done a single cruel or vicious thing in her life, yet now she was being mistaken for a violent woman…

“This Empress doesn't normally go around hitting people.”

“And when I do, I usually only hit him...”

【Only hit him?】

【I get it! Her Majesty the Empress was doing it to get his attention!】

【Ooh, Her Majesty the Empress is like a young girl with her first crush~】

“…”

Long Yue looked irritably at the stream chat's teasing. She felt that no matter how she explained, she couldn't make it clear, so she might as well just give up.

“Forget it. It's not easy for This Empress to explain it to you.”

“Actually, This Empress is currently troubled by my situation with him…”

“Last night, he confessed to This Empress, and This Empress agreed. But now, This Empress doesn't really know how to face him…”

As she spoke, Long Yue couldn't help but blush slightly.

She didn't actually want to talk about this, but keeping it bottled up was uncomfortable, and she really had no one else to confide in.

In this world, besides Lin Fan and his two friends, she had no other friends at all.

She figured that most people in the mortal world go through the experience of falling in love, so maybe they would have rich experience and could offer her some valuable advice.

Hearing Long Yue share her troubles, the people in the stream chat fell silent again.

【Isn't Her Majesty the Empress acting exactly like a young girl who's just fallen in love...】

【Don't tell me Her Majesty the Empress has never been in a relationship before?!】

【My god, then how old is Her Majesty the Empress? My nephew is in elementary school, and he already has a girlfriend.】

【I feel like Her Majesty the Empress is no older than eighteen!】

【…】

Seeing the bullet comments filled with nothing but speculation and teasing about her age, Long Yue felt very helpless.

What she wanted now was actual, substantive advice!

Beep beep.

Just then, the notification sound for a new message rang on her phone.

At first, she thought it was another spam push notification or something, but when she opened her phone, she saw that a stranger had sent her a message:

—You're the Empress, right? I've been following your stream. Can we meet up to talk? Perhaps I can help you with your troubles.

Hmm?

Long Yue's delicate brows furrowed as she looked at the message on her phone screen with confusion.

The message came from an unknown phone number that she didn't recognize at all. How did this person get her phone number?

They said they could help her with her current troubles, which means they were also watching her stream right now.

Should I agree to meet them…

Just as she was hesitating, Lin Fan, inside the bedroom, had finished his writing for the day and was about to come out.

Seeing this, Long Yue quickly replied to the message, agreeing. After apologizing to the viewers in the stream chat, she immediately ended the stream, grabbed her bag, and headed for the door.

“Hmm? Empress, you're going out?” Lin Fan asked curiously.

“Ah, ah…! Yes! You don't need to prepare my portion for dinner. This Empress is meeting a friend to eat out!”

Leaving that one sentence behind, Long Yue rushed out the door without a second glance.

By now, Lin Fan was also slowly starting to realize.

Wait, where would she have gotten friends in this world?

It seems the Empress has been deliberately avoiding him...?
