Pampered

A peace-seeking, easygoing Noble Consort who just wants to coast × a slow-witted Emperor who doesn't realize he's in love

Yan Ning rose from Side Consort to Noble Consort, and Fu Yan doted on her for years.

One day,

Fu Yan: "The court officials recommend that I appoint an Empress."

Yan Ning: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Fu Yan stormed off in a fury.

Yan Ning couldn't figure out why Fu Yan was angry. Her response had been perfectly proper.

Fu Yan couldn't figure out why he was angry, either. He ought to put the greater good first and appoint an Empress. How could he let the words of one consort affect his mood? So he decided to see Yan Ning less often.

Yan Ning didn't need to be the most favored woman in the harem, but if she wanted a peaceful life from now on, she absolutely could not offend His Majesty.

She tried to see Fu Yan for the first time. Failed.

She tried to see Fu Yan for the second time. Failed.

She tried to see Fu Yan for the third time. Failed.

Yan Ning: "Let me rest a little, then I'll try again."

The first day Yan Ning didn't come: Missed her.

The second day Yan Ning didn't come: Missed her.

The third day Yan Ning didn't come: Missed her.

Fu Yan: "Could it be that she doesn't care about me anymore?"
