Chapter 2.18
During the release of 《The Rose that Blooms on Doomsday》, even if He ChongFeng didn't fight back, the gossip about the male and female leads raged on.
Most of the BEEs were sensible enough to understand that He ChongFeng's attitude was not a tacit admission, they knew that he was someone who was able to confess his love in front of the whole world. If Wu LiLi was that person, he definitely wouldn't have involved her in this PR mess. But He ChongFeng had refused to issue a public statement and Wu LiLi had kept making trouble—she happily showed off her ring and revealed that she wanted to get married as soon as possible—it was like the fans' hearts were strapped onto a roller coaster.
Gou Liang squeezed his eyes and said to He ChongFeng, "It's not going to be pretty when their goddess makes her wedding photos public and everyone finds out that the one she's marrying isn't you, but a geezer with a beer belly who's old enough to be her dad."
He ChongFeng had no interest in other people's gossip, so he just went along with him. Then they heard the director call everyone back to work.
Since the night of the Crown Prince Dianxia's wedding, he and Guan Hui had been sizing each other up secretly, yet on the surface, they were inseparable.
Their relationship was like arsenic-soaked candy, addictive yet agonizing.
Nevertheless, no one wanted to reveal the truth underneath.
After the crown prince finally eliminated the influence of his relatives from the court, the Empress Dowager was no longer in power and the new emperor's prestige was high. The Emperor intended to abdicate the throne to the crown prince, but enemies then invaded and threw the incompetent court into chaos.
How could the capable crown prince agree to such disadvantageous terms for peace?
After a few rounds of stalemate, Guan Hui was ordered to go on a mission to break the deadlock.

The night before the expedition.
Guan Hui appeared for the last time in the east palace, in the Crown Prince Dianxia's bedchamber.
When he arrived, the imperial consort was accompanying the crown prince. She was grinding ink while dreamily looking at the crown prince. He would occasionally return her gaze and they would both smile like a pair of immortal lovers.
Guan Hui felt the sight unsightly, he made his footsteps louder deliberately.
"Your humble servant, Guan Hui, has something important to discuss with Your Highness."
The imperial consort immediately put down the inkstone and was about to take her leave when she saw the Crown Prince Dianxia wave his hand and laugh. "What brings my beloved subject into the palace at this late hour? If it isn't important, Gu will go to rest with the imperial consort."
The imperial consort flushed with embarrassment.
Guan Hui said in a deep voice, "The army is about to depart. As the commander-in-chief, there are some military matters that must be discussed with Your Highness. I hope Your Highness will bear this burden."
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince Dianxia directed an apologetic look towards the imperial consort. There was a bit of warmth in his eyes.
The imperial consort bowed with eyes filled with tenderness. "In that case, this wife will not disturb Your Highness' deliberations with Guan-Daren. This consort will take her leave."
