Seven years after transmigrating, he was cornered at the head of the bed by a cold and aloof empress

Chapter 30 Lin Zhou: Legs... no, personality! Personality!

The air seemed to freeze.

All the cameras were shoved into Lin Zhou's face, capturing even his pores clearly. The cool touch of the lie detector against his palm made his hand sweat slightly.

Yan Min's old face was very close, her smile as bright as a blooming chrysanthemum, holding up that infuriatingly awkward question card:

"Please answer—what do you like most about your wife?"

Lin Zhou's Adam's apple bobbed.

In that instant, the extremely impactful scene from just moments ago uncontrollably resurfaced in my mind.

The afternoon sun casts dappled shadows on the trees.

And those long, white, straight, and unobstructed legs.

The visual impact was so strong that it directly blocked his cerebral cortex and took over his language center.

"that……"

Lin Zhou subconsciously licked his dry lips, his eyes darting around—a sign that his brain was still struggling.

But the mouth clearly has its own ideas.

"leg……"

This single word, spoken softly and lightly, traveled through the microphone with crystal clarity throughout the venue and reached the ears of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room.

Although the sound was not loud, it was like a thunderclap in the quiet threshing ground.

The entire room fell silent.

Su Qingge's hand, which was holding a water glass, suddenly trembled, and a few drops of water splashed onto the back of her hand, a burning feeling of shame.

Yan Min's eyes instantly lit up like two big light bulbs.

At this critical moment, Lin Zhou bit his tongue hard, and the sharp pain brought him back to his senses instantly.

What the hell!

I let it slip!

If this is confirmed, how can he maintain his "devoted and loving husband" persona? Wouldn't he just become a complete lecherous old man?

"No! It's not a leg!"

Lin Zhou reacted extremely quickly, his survival instinct erupting completely at that moment. He abruptly straightened up, and roared righteously and loudly, trying to cover up his previous mistake with the volume:

"It's personality! Personality!"

"I love Qingge's personality the most! She's gentle, virtuous, well-educated, and understanding! She's the perfect wife in my eyes!"

After rattling off this string of adjectives in one breath, Lin Zhou even nodded vigorously, his face radiating sincerity.

It was as if the word "leg" that had just slipped out was just a hallucination for everyone.

however.

Machines don't lie.

Just 0.01 seconds after he finished speaking.

"drop--!!!"

The lie detector, which claimed to have a sensitivity of 99.9%, suddenly emitted a sharp, piercing long beep.

Immediately afterwards, the huge red light began to flash wildly, so red it was shocking, so red it seemed to be mocking mercilessly.

[Warning! Warning! Strong emotional fluctuations and physiological reactions detected!]

[Judgment: A lie! This is a colossal lie!]

The blinding red light shone on Lin Zhou's face, which was etched with "justice," making it appear particularly comical and ironic.

"Pfft—hahahahaha!"

No one knows who couldn't hold back first, but the laughter seemed to be contagious, instantly igniting the entire audience.

Lu Ming laughed so hard he almost fell over, slapping his thigh without any regard for his image: "Brother Lin! Your transition was so abrupt! Gentle and virtuous? Are you sure you're talking about Empress Su?"

Chen Kai laughed until tears streamed down his face: "Brother, you're a real man! We're not ashamed! Those legs... cough cough, every man likes them, there's nothing to be embarrassed about!"

The live stream chat was so intense that it caused the server to lag again.

"Hahaha! That's hilarious! Such a slip of the tongue!"

Lin Zhou: My brain wants to talk about personality, but my mouth has its own ideas!

"Lie detector: You can fool others, but you can't fool me! Your heartbeat is screaming 'legs, legs, legs!'"

"What the hell does 'gentle and virtuous' mean?! If Su Qingge is gentle and virtuous, then even a tigress could be kept as a pet!"

"An explanation is just a cover-up! Brother Lin, admit it, you're just lusting after her!"

Lin Zhou stared at the red light that was still flashing wildly, feeling completely numb.

Is this broken machine?

Even if I don't think she's gentle and virtuous, isn't this reaction a bit too extreme? Doesn't she give me any face at all?

He patted the machine with a look of indignation, trying to argue, "Director! There's definitely something wrong with this machine! It was static electricity! Or the voltage was unstable! I request a retest!"

"Retest invalid!"

Yan Min smiled like a fox who had successfully stolen a fish, and mercilessly pronounced judgment through a megaphone, "The machine shows that when you say 'legs,' your heart rate increases and your adrenaline surges; but when you say 'personality,' all the data are as calm as a stagnant pool, and you even seem a little guilty."

"Lin Zhou's father, it seems that in your subconscious, our goddess Su's personality... is indeed not that great."

This is absolutely devastating.

Lin Zhou stiffly turned his neck to look at Su Qingge beside him.

Su Qingge had already put down her water glass.

The blush on her exquisite face hadn't completely faded, making it look like white jade stained with rouge. She bit her lower lip in embarrassment and annoyance, her beautiful eyes darting around as she glared fiercely at Lin Zhou.

Are you ashamed?

definitely.

Being publicly admitted by your husband to "craving" your body in front of the entire internet would be embarrassing for any woman.

But beneath this shame, a secret, unexpected joy welled up in Su Qingge's heart.

As a woman, especially a beautiful one, who doesn't like to be adored by their partner?

Even if this infatuation is somewhat superficial and "sexy," it at least proves that she is attractive in this man's eyes.

It's much better than him saying something like "gentle and virtuous," which sounds like a perfunctory lie.

"rogue!"

Su Qingge blushed, muttered something under her breath, and then, under the table, stretched out her long leg again and gave Lin Zhou a light kick.

This kick wasn't very forceful; it was more like a playful gesture.

"Cough cough, wife, let me explain..." Lin Zhou was still making a last-ditch effort.

"Explain what? Explain why you were drooling over my legs?"

Su Qingge rolled her eyes at him. Although she was still trying to sound tough, she could barely suppress the smile on her lips.

"Alright, alright, first round, Lin Zhou's dad failed the challenge!"

Yan Min, always eager for drama, immediately pushed forward with the program, saying, "It seems our Lin Zhou's father is a 'visual creature.' However, to give everyone a more intuitive and scientific understanding of Lin Zhou's psychological state just now, our production team has specially invited a heavyweight outsider!"

"Please welcome Professor Jiang, one of China's top micro-expression analysis experts!"

As Yan Min finished speaking, an old scholar wearing a Zhongshan suit, thick glasses, and a serious expression walked out from backstage.

Holding a pointer in his hand, he walked straight to the big screen.

The screen was frozen on the moment Lin Zhou stared at Su Qingge's thigh.

High definition, uncensored, and even the eyes were thoughtfully enlarged in post-production.

Lin Zhou looked at the frozen image of himself, his eyes filled with an amplified longing and greed, making him look like a naive and inexperienced fool.

His vision went black, and all he wanted to do was find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Are the production team of this show devils?

Public execution?!

Professor Jiang pushed up his glasses, pointed his pointer at Lin Zhou's pupils on the screen, and spoke in a serious tone as if he were lecturing on advanced mathematics:

"As you can see, at this moment, Mr. Lin Zhou's pupils have dilated by about 30%, which is a typical sign of 'excitement'."

"Look at his Adam's apple..."

Professor Jiang lowered his pointer, pointing at Lin Zhou's bobbing Adam's apple:

"This swallowing motion is extremely rapid and accompanied by an unconscious lip-licking motion. In psychology, this usually represents a primal, intense, and irrepressible force..."

The entire audience held their breath, waiting for the expert to continue.

Lin Zhou closed his eyes in despair.

Professor Jiang paused for a moment, then uttered two words:

"Appetite".
