Li Ming positioned both herself and the Heaven Emperor in the very center of the hall.
She could tell that her mate was nervous but he pretended to be as calm and collected as always.
Even though he could deceive everyone in making them believe exactly what he wanted but she was not just everyone. She was his mate, the other half of his soul.
Her eyes could see all those things that her mates tried their best to keep hidden from her.
Like she could see the tension but also happiness in the Heaven Emperor's eyes.
She could see that even though Hei Long appeared completely fine but there were moments when he was struggling. His shoulder was killing him in pain but he was pretending to be fine.
She didn't approach him because she was afraid that he would start ignoring her. She also didn't want to increase his suffering by doing something stupid.
