The Empress could not help but laugh as she raised her hand and pointed at her.
"You," she said, "are already eighteen today, yet you still act like a child who won't grow up, always stirring up trouble."
She was full of smiles, clearly enjoying her daughter's dependency on her.
Luo Ning was not surprised that the Empress already knew about what had just happened.
She coquettishly said, "In Empress Mother's presence, I will always be a child."
Then she reached out and tugged at the Empress's sleeve, "Empress Mother, Gong Ruogu played with my feelings, and Third Imperial Sister deliberately made me look foolish by making me wear the green hat. You must stand up for me."
The Empress gave her a glance, "I don't know who is playing with whose feelings."
However, even if it was just her daughter's momentary fun from a bet and boredom, she did not sympathize with Gong Ruogu.
Instead, she detested him greatly.
