The Emperor was greatly perplexed.
"Don't you like her very much? You even sent people everywhere to find her."
"Does liking her mean I have to make her a female official?" Mo Lingwei retorted coldly.
The Emperor froze, unsure how to respond.
He had only made this suggestion because he wanted to make Mo Lingwei a little happier.
After all, while this son of his had committed every evil imaginable, ruthless and cruel, he had at least retained a shred of humanity when it came to Shen Ningning.
The Emperor had hoped to use Shen Ningning as an opening to mend his relationship with his son.
But Mo Lingwei reacted like a wolf whose tail had been stepped on, his eyes instantly turning fierce.
"Never mention this again, and don't even think about trapping her in the palace," he said, his voice frigid.
The Emperor opened his mouth, about to say something.
As if guessing his thoughts, Mo Lingwei cut him off sharply. "And don't send anyone to disturb her."
