Taotao had fallen asleep and couldn't offer any response.
Susu was biting her finger, her eyes like black pearls, staring unwaveringly at Shen Chuwei.
Shen Chuwei poked Susu's little hand, and the little one reacted quickly, instantly grasping her finger.
Shen Chuwei's heart immediately softened into cotton candy; no wonder everyone loved holding Susu, she was too cute.
At this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside. Shen Chuwei turned her head and saw the Empress walking in. Her Phoenix Robe had been replaced by a red casual dress, her regal coiled hair swapped for a simple hairstyle, devoid of the luxurious Phoenix crown.
"Empress, what are you doing?"
The Empress grabbed Shen Chuwei's hand urgently, "We're taking Taotao and Susu out of the palace."
It took the Empress several hours to make such a bold decision.
She had been a proper and disciplined Empress for over twenty years; now she was behaving recklessly, just this once.
