I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive

28. Who can endure this?

By the time I waited for Louise to return with a not-so-happy expression, it was already late at night.

Clearly, just this morning, my queen was laughing with such schadenfreude, wearing a face that was entirely that of a scheming villain whose plot had succeeded. Yet… at the moment the full moon appeared, Louise quietly disappeared, and now that she has returned , what I see is a melancholic girl with sorrowful thoughts written all over her face.

If I had to say “troubles,” it might not even reach a “special” level, after all, at the moment she saw me, Louise was still able to put on a smile named “disguise” as usual. But… should I say it’s a “premonition”? Or something else? Tonight, I really didn’t want to pretend to be oblivious to Louise’s troubles.

“What’s wrong? Waiting for me with the lights on at this hour~ Are you waiting for me to do something bad?”

The queen looked over with a smile, clearly: she felt guilty. Moreover, she intended to use some of the most primitive human actions to cover up my suspicions.

“Sure~ Anyway, there’s nothing to do tomorrow. Which outfit do you want me to wear tonight? Or should I change it up?”

Don’t use this kind of thing as a “weapon”! I… I might hesitate, you know!

I shook my head to dispel some dangerous thoughts; after all, impulse is the devil, especially since the girl in front of me had added another “trump card” against me. If I’m not careful, it would be even easier for her to lead me by the nose.

“Don’t think you can brush it off with your body…”

“Then you don’t want to?” The queen blinked, “Ah~ Then just don’t get close to me tonight, it’s so hot, it’s uncomfortable to sleep.”

This! We’ll discuss this issue later!

I need to quickly regain the initiative.

In fact, during the time the queen started to leave at night, rather than guessing where she went, I was more focused on why she had become somewhat “melancholic” at that moment.

After thinking it over, I could only arrive at one answer, after all, to put it simply: my wife had become melancholic, and it was nothing more than… because of another woman.

I tentatively asked, “Does that girl Nilu have such a big impact on you? Just to be clear, I really didn’t do anything, not even touch her hand.”

“Hmm? I didn’t…”

The queen’s expression momentarily turned a bit confused, then as if she understood something, she relaxed quite a bit, and then… reached out and poked my face.

“That’s right~ I told you, my jealousy is quite strong and hidden. If you really touched someone else’s little hand~ then tomorrow I’ll come and feed you instead~”

Queen, what you just said, thinking about it carefully, is a bit terrifying!

“However, this time I’m not troubled by that old woman who, in my eyes, might not even attract you at all~”

After subtly mocking Rodma’s “king,” the queen… once again revealed the “melancholy” expression I had just seen. At this point, I finally sensed: perhaps this was not her acting, nor some means to gain my sympathy and soften my heart, but was truly…”

After checking the script and finding no useful information, my mood suddenly became a bit restless.

“What’s wrong?”

“I was thinking, maybe I shouldn’t have let you ‘appear’ from the start. The Great Yingtian Empire isn’t without its own existence~ something like ‘underground affairs’.”

Clearly, this should have been Louise’s effort to make the atmosphere a bit “lighter” at this moment, but I really couldn’t empathize with it.

I grabbed her wrist and pulled the queen, who was facing away from me, back. Sure enough…

The next moment, I saw even more sorrow on her face.

“But, if I hadn’t let you ‘appear,’ I wouldn’t have discovered more of your ‘content,’ and wouldn’t have this kind of mood today. It’s really frustrating, why would I, who never makes mistakes , encounter such a question that has no answer.”

Something must have happened during the time the queen just left!?

I could confirm this! So I immediately wanted to check the script of what Louise had done before. However, even though I had always disguised the “script” as “prophecy,” this clever queen in front of me wouldn’t fail to notice some subtle reactions when I was “using” it.

She reached out to stop me, silently shook her head, and then smiled as she said something that must have seemed very unambitious to her.

“I never expected that one day, I would actually regret what I did. I shouldn’t have let you ‘make an appearance,’ O’Keel. Although I finally saw your ‘appearance,’ it’s not just me who can see it . Now I’m starting to worry, in the future, if that day really comes when I need to prioritize my own identity and my own empire and do something to you, will I still be able to calmly and composedly act as I once vowed in front of you: I will definitely act with calmness and composure.”

I knew that now was not the time for “love talk.”

“Who else has their eyes on me? Can’t you handle them?”

Only this possibility would make the queen say what she just said. But it’s strange, the entire Great Yingtian Empire is already among the top in the various nations, and the Great Yingtian Empire is something Louise controls herself, not subject to any nobles or big shots. Why… is there still someone she can’t deal with?

Unfortunately, this point, at least tonight, Louise didn’t want to answer me.

“You don’t need to know. This is a revenge for you hiding from me and secretly making a deal with that Nilu~☆. The troubles I’m facing now are also my own challenges. My dear, you don’t need to think too much; even if you do, it won’t help.”

As she spoke, she tugged at my hand and turned around, “I hate having to bring up those troublesome topics when it’s just the two of us. I don’t want to be calculating everything about the Great Yīn Empire day and night; at least—this time is meant for relaxation.”

Then, Louise opened her arms in front of me, smiling and winking, “Don’t think too much about it; it’s just an ‘old lady’ who has her eyes on you, and I’ll take care of it. For now —let’s do something normal people should do.”

After a pause, the girl tilted her head and complained.

“Tsk, do I really have to be the one to speak up every time? What are you still standing there for? Hug me—next, I need you to remember every inch of my body well—it’ll come in handy later. “

Um… Louise, could you not say things so bluntly?

Otherwise, who could possibly hold back!
