Chapter 144 144. Jealousy
She knew very well that Augustine's anger had reached its peak at the moment, and Noah was threatening the sea people. If she was not careful, the situation might get completely out of control and trigger a war between the two races.

"Your Majesty, Noah, calm down!" Su Yaoyao shouted anxiously. She quickly walked between the two men, opened her arms to try to separate them, her eyes full of pleading, "Let's talk it out properly, don't be impulsive."

At this moment, she was extremely anxious. On the one hand, she was afraid that Augustine would really attack Noah in an impulse. On the other hand, she was worried that Noah would say something to anger Augustine and make the situation even more out of control.

Augustine glanced at Su Yaoyao, and the anger in his eyes subsided a little, but he was still full of hostility towards Noah.

"Yaoyao, come back to the bedroom with me." Augustine's voice still carried unquestionable majesty, but compared to his previous rage, it was now a little more restrained.

He reached out and held Su Yaoyao's hand tightly, with such strength that it seemed as if he was declaring his sovereignty, and then he pulled her out without saying anything.

"Why? Sister has to sleep with me tonight!" How could Noah give up easily? Like a stubborn child, he reached out and tightly grabbed Su Yaoyao's other wrist, using all his strength to prevent her from leaving.

His eyes were full of unwillingness and stubbornness, as if declaring to Augustine that he would never give up easily.

The two men stared at each other, sparks flying in their eyes, as if engaged in a silent contest. The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, as if a fierce conflict would ignite at any second.

Augustine gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words: "Let go!" The voice was low and cold, with a chilling deterrent power.

Noah was not willing to be outdone. He snorted coldly, his tone full of provocation: "No! Sister is mine tonight." He emphasized the word "mine" very heavily, as if he was demonstrating to Augustine.

As Su Yaoyao listened to the two people's tit-for-tat conversation, she became more and more anxious, as if countless ants were crawling across her heart.

Moreover, the two men held her wrists tightly, with increasing strength, as if they wanted to crush her wrists.

"It hurts so much! Do you want to break my wrist?" Su Yaoyao's voice was full of pain and anger.

The two men finally woke up from their dream and realized that their actions had hurt Su Yaoyao, so they quickly let go of her hands.

Su Yaoyao rubbed her red wrist, a nameless anger welling up in her heart. These two guys only knew how to be jealous and had no regard for her feelings at all.

"Get out, all of you." Su Yaoyao was so angry that her face turned red. She reached out and pushed the two men's chests hard, pushing them towards the door as if driving away disobedient children.

Augustine was being pushed, still saying, "Yaoyao, you promised to come back to me in an hour." There was a hint of grievance and confusion in his eyes, as if he didn't understand why Su Yaoyao was suddenly so angry.

Su Yaoyao retorted angrily, "I didn't agree!" She was upset at the moment and didn't want to listen to Augustine at all.

"Sister, let me stay with you? Noah can't sleep without you. I promise to be obedient tonight and not be like last night." Noah also begged bitterly, his voice with a hint of tears, trying to impress Su Yaoyao with his pitiful appearance.

"Get out! I want some peace and quiet!" Su Yaoyao, unable to bear it any longer, shouted. She pushed the two men out of the door with all her might, then slammed it shut, isolating them from the room.

The sound of the door closing echoed in the silent corridor, as if it also hit the two men's hearts heavily.

"Last night? What happened to you last night?" Augustine's sharp ears instantly caught the key message in Noah's words. His eyes instantly sharpened, staring directly at Noah. "Hmph, this is a private matter between my sister and me. Your Majesty, please don't worry about it." Noah raised his chin, a smug look on his face, deliberately keeping Augustine in suspense. He thought to himself, just to make Augustine feel unhappy.

"Oh, you sneaked into the palace without my summons, plotting something treacherous," Augustine said coldly, his eyes filled with disdain and accusation. He felt that Noah was simply audacious, daring to ignore his authority.

"I am plotting something bad, but not against Your Majesty." Noah retorted fearlessly, his eyes full of provocation, as if declaring to Augustine that his feelings for Su Yaoyao were unwavering.

"You!" Augustine was so angry that he was shaking all over. He clenched his fists and wanted to rush up and teach Noah a lesson again.

The two looked at each other, their teeth itching with anger, as if the other was the most hateful person in the world.

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

They each crossed their arms, refusing to look at each other, like two quarreling children, neither willing to bow first.

But after a long time, there was no sign that the other party wanted to leave.

"Why don't you leave?" Augustine broke the silence first, with a hint of impatience in his tone.

Noah didn't answer, thinking to himself: Of course I'll wait until you leave, then beg my sister and play the victim. Maybe she'll feel sorry for me and let me in. He held on to a glimmer of hope, and from time to time he glanced at the closed door.

"Why doesn't Your Majesty leave?" Noah asked back. He knew that Augustine must have his own plans.

Augustine thought to himself: Of course, I'll wait until you leave, coax Yaoyao gently, and then sleep together. He also had his own plans in mind, looking forward to reconciling with Su Yaoyao.

Suddenly, the two looked at each other, squinting their eyes, as if they had telepathy and realized that the other person had the same idea as them.

A subtle smell of gunpowder filled the air again.

Augustine sneered and said, "Hmph, do you think this emperor can't guess your little trick? Do you think if you stay here, Yaoyao will relent and let you in? Don't be delusional."

Noah, unwilling to be outdone, retorted, "Your Majesty, isn't he planning the same thing? If you say I'm delusional, I'm afraid you're just daydreaming. My sister has feelings for me too, and maybe she'll let me in later."

The two of them argued back and forth, neither of them giving in, and the quarrel echoed in the silent corridor.

At this moment, the door to the bedroom suddenly opened a crack, and Su Yaoyao's angry voice came out: "Are you guys done yet? Why are you making so much noise so late at night! Be quiet, or I'll really be angry!"

When they heard Su Yaoyao's voice, the two of them suddenly stopped like roosters with their necks strangled.

Only then did Su Yaoyao close the door with satisfaction and go back to her room to sleep.
