In just three years, it has brought all the surrounding countries under its control.

Thus, at the age of thirty-two, Jiang Zui became the overlord of the Central Plains.

Ji Guimu also silently accompanied Jiang Zui.

Jiang Zui and Ji Guimu stood on the high city wall, gazing at the beautiful landscape in the distance.

After pondering for a long time, Ji Guimu said, "Your Majesty, today... in court, officials are again proposing a selection of concubines. Aren't you going to consider it?!"

Jiang Zui stared intently at Ji Guimu, a slight smile playing on his lips. "And you?!"

Do you want me to take a concubine?!

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Guimu subconsciously retorted, "I don't want to!"

However, upon hearing his own voice, Ji Guimu's eyes flashed with panic and regret.

Jiang Zui teased, "Why don't you want to?!"

"I...I..." Ji Guimu hesitated for a moment, then stammered, "Your Majesty, didn't you say you already had someone you loved?!"

So, I...

"I do have someone I like," Jiang Zui said calmly. "I will never marry anyone but him in this lifetime."

Upon hearing this, a trace of melancholy flashed deep in Ji Guimu's eyes.

Jiang Zui teased, "Gui Mu, now that the world is at peace, do you have someone you admire?"

I'll grant you a marriage!

"I do have someone I admire, but..."

Ji Guimu gave a bitter smile and said, "But my beloved doesn't like me."

Jiang Zui feigned surprise and said, "Really?!"

Is there anyone Prime Minister Ji can't have?!

Tell me about it.

I'll help you figure something out.

Ji Guimu sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it, you can't force a relationship."

"Is it sweet or not? How do you know?! You haven't even tasted it."

What if you misunderstand what they mean?

Ji Guimu affirmed, "No, that won't happen."

Whether it was the timely breeze, Jiang Zui's unrestrained smile, or the perfect atmosphere, Ji Guimu, with an adoring expression, looked up at Jiang Zui and softly asked:

"Your Majesty, the person I love is you, but the person you love is not me."

So, it's not sweet.

Jiang Zui never expected that his wife, who had kept it in for so long, would finally speak out.

"How can you be so sure... that the person I love isn't you?!" Jiang Zui retorted.

Upon hearing this, Ji Guimu's pupils instantly contracted, and he stared blankly at Jiang Zui, hesitatingly asking, "Your Majesty! You... mean..."

Jiang Zui raised his hand and pinched Ji Guimu's cheek, saying, "If you like me, just confess."

Why keep it all bottled up inside?!

"I... Your subject... Don't you have Jiajia?!" Ji Guimu said aggrievedly.

He then added, "Since Your Majesty knows my intentions, then... Your Majesty..."

As Ji Guimu said this, his face was full of anticipation.

"Mm." Jiang Zui tried his best to suppress the smile on his lips and said, "I also love you."

"Really?!" Ji Guimu's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed excitedly, "Your Majesty... is what you're saying true?!"

"Nature is truth."

After saying that, Jiang Zui lowered his head and kissed Ji Guimu's forehead.

Ji Guimu asked anxiously, "What about Jiajia?!"

"His Majesty doesn't like Jiajia anymore?!"

Jiang Zui raised an eyebrow and asked, "Jiajia? Isn't that you?!"

"What do you mean by that, Your Majesty?!" Ji Guimu asked, feigning ignorance.

"Ji Guimu, you've followed me through so many worlds, and you're still pretending not to know?" Jiang Zui said through gritted teeth.

By the time he became the overlord of the Central Plains, the system mission had already ended.

He also confirmed that Ji Guimu was the person who had been with him for so long, and that she was his wife.

Ji Guimu scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "You...you knew all along?!"

Jiang Zui nodded. "Ji Guimu, this world is the world where we first met, right?!"

"Um."

"So you liked me from this time onwards?"

"Um."

"Then why didn't you tell me?!"

"Hmph!" Upon hearing this, Ji Guimu snorted and said, "How many times have I hinted at it to you?!"

And you?!

Purely career-oriented!

Jiang Zui sensed the anger in Ji Guimu's tone, his lips twitched, and he thought to himself:

He didn't really consider romance when he was in the male lead group.

Moreover, he knew very well that he was just a mission taker and could not show any special treatment to the people of the small world.

"I'm sorry," Jiang Zui said guiltily, "I've kept you waiting for so long!"

Then he asked, "Was this task I did assigned by you?!"

Ji Guimu replied awkwardly, "I guess so."

"Ever since I learned that you are not from this world, I have been trying to find a way to get you to come out."

Before, after you left this little world, my soul, for some unknown reason, followed you to another world.

In every world that followed, I secretly protected you.

Until your department found out about me.

They want to remove this bug from me.

"I caused a scene at the bureau."

Then, I accidentally broke a few systems.

"You know what happened next."

Ji Guimu said aggrievedly, "I've sacrificed so much for you, and you...aren't you going to show any appreciation?!"

You still haven't said whether you like me or not!

Jiang Zui smiled and said, "Is that even a question?!"

Isn't it obvious?!

If I don't like you, who would I like?

Wife!

The word "wife" made Ji Guimu blush and turn red.

Jiang Zui grabbed Ji Guimu's arm and pulled him into her embrace, saying softly, "Amu, thank you for liking me."

"Liking you is my own business, it has nothing to do with you, you...you don't need to feel guilty."

"Okay, sure."

Just as Jiang Zui was about to get intimate with his wife, the system broke the mood.

[Congratulations, host! The mission is complete!]

The system chuckled and said, "Host, this is the last small world."

We hope to meet again someday.

"When you get back to the station, host, remember to call me when you and your wife get married."

"Don't worry, you'll definitely get your share."

"Hehehe." The system chuckled foolishly, "I have to go on to my next mission, so I'll be going now."

Jiang Zui waved his hand casually, thinking to himself: Hurry up and leave, so as not to disturb him and Ji Guimu.

After the system left, Ji Guimu smiled and teased, "Your task is complete, but mine has only just begun."

After saying that, Jiang Zui frowned in surprise, "What mission?!"

"I... I just said that I broke a few systems, but in order to be with you, I... I had no choice but to sign a contract with the bureau."

"I'll work my ass off for your department."

"What mission?!"

"The strategy... is to capture the male lead's heart." Ji Guimu said, sounding somewhat guilty.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zui roared, "No way!"

His wife can only win him over; how can she win over other women?

"Then help me complete the task."

"OK!"

------

The End!

My darlings, this book has come to an end. Thank you for accompanying me for so long!

We'll meet again someday.
