A/N: I AM BACK. Sorry for the super, super late update ;-; My laptop finally died (may it rest in peace) and I finally got a new one (YAY). Please read 279 first. Enjoy ^^ (P.S I don't know any Mandarin and all the honorifics I'm using are off the net. Please correct me if I'm wrong)

The Emperor laughed. “Geng-bao, is this your lovely guest?”

“Yes, baba. This is Jīn Xīchè from Seoul.”

“You jerk,” said Heechul. “I didn’t know you knew my Chinese name. It is an honor to meet you, Huáng Shang.”

“Impressive language skills, but we can speak Korean if it would help you to relax, Heechul-ssi.”

Heechul nodded, blushing a little. “That would be most kind of you, Huáng Shang.”

“Geng-bao, won’t you introduce me as well?” said a light voice.

“Of course mama. This is Jīn Xīchè from Seoul. Heechul, this is my mother.”

Heechul curtsied. “I apologize, but I am unsure of how to address you.”

“You can call me mama, Heechul-ssi,” she said mischievously. “After all, I think we’re going to be seeing each other quite often.”

Huáng Shang- Your Imperial Majesty
