Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

"Did you help her reform, or did she help you fall into depravity...?"

Before long, the carriage stopped, the curtain was lifted, and Su Liang jumped down.

Before your eyes is a wide-open vermilion bronze gate, more than thirteen feet in length, very magnificent. Guards stand on both sides of the gate, dressed in light armor, holding long spears, very imposing.

However, this alone shows that the person living in this mansion is of extraordinary status.

"Young Master Su, please come in. The princess has been waiting for you for quite some time!"

Following the man in the lead, Su Liang crossed the front yard and arrived at the front hall.

"Princess, Young Master Su has arrived!"

The door to the front hall was half-open, and Su Liang could see what was happening inside. He heard a woman's voice, clear and melodious, like the tinkling of jade pendants.

"Come in."

Upon hearing this, the leader slightly turned his body and gestured for them to enter.

"Please, Young Master Su."

Su Liang pushed open the door and entered, where he saw Jun Hongyan sitting at the head of the table, bathed in light.

Her long hair was tied up high, adorned with a red stone hairpin and a jade hair ornament, and two wisps of hair swayed gently by her forehead.

Wearing a deep purple dress that fit her perfectly, she accentuated the grandeur of Mount Everest.

Unlike the pale lips I saw that day, today she seemed to have applied crimson lipstick, looking radiant and beautiful. Bathed in light, she resembled a goddess descending to earth, captivating all who looked at her.

Su Liang stood at the door, completely stunned.

Chapter Three From now on, you are mine.

"Tch, what a pathetic guy!"

Just as he was engrossed in reading, the system's annoying voice suddenly rang out, startling Su Liang back to his senses. He secretly cursed inwardly.

"You stay put and don't cause any trouble!"

Just as Su Liang was hesitating about how to start the conversation, Jun Hongyan spoke first.

She indifferently extended her pale hand and pointed to something on a table to the side.

"Put them on."

Upon hearing this, Su Liang walked over and picked it up. Upon looking at it, his expression became indescribably strange.

The thing on the table was none other than a bright red wedding dress!

After just one glance, Su Liang threw the wedding dress back and said stiffly.

"I'm sorry, I cannot comply!"

Upon hearing this, Jun Hongyan's expression changed instantly, and a hint of determination appeared in her usually calm eyes.

Why refuse?

Didn't you propose to me yesterday?

Upon hearing this, Su Liang felt embarrassed, as he couldn't very well say it was because of the tasks assigned by the lousy system.

A marriage proposal is a marriage proposal, but what does that have to do with wearing a wedding dress?

It's impossible that the most beautiful woman in Qin, who is also the future world-destroying boss, would agree to his marriage proposal!

In that case, the system could climb trees.

Su Liang said calmly.

"I proposed to you, but I never said I wanted to marry into your family."

Upon hearing this, Jun Hongyan's expression turned haughty.

"By marrying into the imperial dynasty, you can gain many things, whether it's cultivation techniques, weapons, or status; you will surpass many others!"

Su Liang scoffed at this, turned around, and swaggered down in the chair.

"Wouldn't that make you a kept man?"

"A real man would never be a kept man, not in this lifetime!"

"Think about where you are right now. Haven't you considered the consequences of refusing me?"

When Jun Hongyan said this, her eyes were playful. That one glance was enough to convince Su Liang once again that what the system said was true, and that this woman would definitely be a major villain in the future.

"I've thought about it, but I'm not afraid!"

Su Liang spoke casually, not so much because he was not afraid, but because he had a gut feeling that Jun Hongyan would not force him to do anything difficult.

Upon hearing this, Jun Hongyan remained silent, staring intently at Su Liang for a while before suddenly smiling.

A slight curve to the corners of her lips, a gentle smile, melting away like ice and snow in an instant, captivating all who behold her.

That smile instantly dimmed all the flowers in the world, and Su Liang couldn't take his eyes off it.

He couldn't help but lick his lips, muttering somewhat blankly,

"It seems like being a kept man isn't such a bad thing after all!"

"Would you call her one of the richest women in the world?"

Just as he was muttering to himself, the transparent panel suddenly popped up, interrupting Su Liang's thoughts.

[When a young woman is strong, a young man lies in bed; when a young man is strong, a young woman leans against the wall. Behind every successful empress is a man who works silently behind the scenes!]

[The future empress's affection for you has increased; quest activated!]

[First SSS quest activated - Reverse takedown of the Empress!]

[Congratulations, host, on completing the first stage of the mission - establishing affinity!]

[First mission completed, and the target identified as the First Era's ultimate boss, the future Empress. Newbie gift pack upgraded...]

[Congratulations on receiving the Super God Reverse Push Gift Pack!]

Open now?

Looking at the panel in front of him, Su Liang was at his wit's end and immediately chose to ignore it.

Just then.

Suddenly, Jun Hongyan strode gracefully towards Su Liang, her long, beautiful legs moving with incredible speed. Her tall figure momentarily gave Su Liang the illusion that he needed to look up at her.

"You saved my life the day before yesterday, and left in such a hurry yesterday that you didn't even leave your name."

"My name is Jun Hongyan, a princess of the Great Qin Dynasty!"

"Su Liang, from now on, you belong to me!"

Su Liang opened his mouth blankly.

"what?"

Jun Hongyan raised her hand and lifted his chin, smiling faintly.

"In other words, I accept your marriage proposal!"

Su Liang slapped away the cold, slender finger, completely unprepared for this situation.

"Princess, you're so carefree! We don't even know each other yet!"

Jun Hongyan seemed unconcerned, her expression unchanged, remaining calm as ever.

"That's not important."

"You only need to understand that from today onwards, the whole world knows that you, Su Liang, are Jun Hongyan's man!"

Upon hearing this, Su Liang couldn't help but imagine himself being treated like a rare animal when he went out in the future.

I was speechless for a moment.

Does that make you seem impressive?

"Of course, if you really don't want to, you are free to refuse. I can pretend nothing happened today and send someone to take you back!"

Upon hearing the sound, Su Liang looked up at Jun Hongyan. The moment their eyes met, Su Liang felt that there seemed to be a trace of loneliness in that beautiful face.

Just this faint, elusive sense of loneliness made Su Liang feel a strange tightness in his chest.

The word "unwilling" lingered on his lips for a long time, but he ultimately didn't say it.

Jun Hongyan's eyes crinkled at the sight.

"Don't worry, I just wanted to let you know in advance."

"There's plenty of time in the future, I'll slowly open you up."

"My heart is yours, and I'll make you willingly marry me!"

These words made Su Liang want to roll his eyes.

Did I pick up the wrong female lead's script?!

"You must be tired from your journey. I'll send someone to take you back!"

After saying that, Jun Hongyan called over the person who had picked up Su Liang not long ago.

"Qin Shu, escort Young Master Su back!"

Qin Shu lowered his eyes and bowed respectfully.

"Yes, Qin Shu obeys!"

"Please, Young Master Su!"

Su Liang took two steps, then suddenly stopped, turned around as if possessed, looked at Jun Hongyan, and asked her question unwillingly.

"When you're dressed in red one day, I'll come and marry you, how about that?"

Jun Hongyan was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled and said loudly.

"If you can let me wear red in the future, why not marry you!"

Although she remained seated there, dressed in a silk dress, the moment Jun Hongyan spoke, Su Liang seemed to see her in a bright red wedding gown, standing before the dragon throne, the empress revered by millions, bowing gently and softly calling him... Husband!

Su Liang nodded, said nothing more, and followed Qin Shu away.

On the way back, in the slightly swaying carriage, Su Liang's expression was unusually solemn.
