Chapter 981: Chapter 577: Shaless, Immoral, and Rude Scoundrel
(PS: These chapters took too much ti, requiring careful thought. Sorry, brothers, this chapter still has a thousand words, everyone refresh around one o’clock!)
——
Zhao Rong sotis thought he had a good temper.
And sotis, it wasn’t good at all.
Under Qin Jianfu’s pursuit, he once fled with a death wish.
He once worried whether Qin Jianfu would give up and not chase him, but instead go after little Qian’er a thousand miles away.
He once believed he could never leave that deep, dark, seemingly endless tomb passage, thinking he might end up buried in the Imperial Mausoleum.
He once thought how wonderful it would be if he could see Qing Jun and little Qian’er one last ti before dying.
He once worried about his wife outside who might be anxiously waiting, no longer lingering in that dream woven by a transparent woman…
And the result?
When he returned, he suddenly found that Qing Jun and Qian’er seed not to care at all about what he’d gone through, only concerned with petty jealousy.
It’s like a soldier going off to war, driven by the belief of returning ho to eat the hot al his wife prepared, crawling out of a heap of dead bodies with great hardship, only to find out that all she cares about is the bit of soldier’s pay he brought back and whether he had flirted with other won, ignoring his exhausted face and the battle-worn cloak as tattered as his heart.
At this mont.
Zhao Lingfei trembled, saying, “Husband, why do you speak of Qian’er and like this? We wouldn’t dare.”
Zhao Rong shook his head, his voice calm, “What else wouldn’t you dare?”
He felt a bit weary and worn out.
“Qing Jun, there’s sothing that Qian’er didn’t say, so I’ll just assu she truly doesn’t understand, but you couldn’t possibly not understand. You said it was at your command, so you should be the one to speak up.”
Zhao Lingfei stared at him, “Wh…what words?”
Zhao Rong pointed to Zhu Yourong, then himself, and said directly, “Do you think there is sothing between Mr. Zhu and that violates ethical principles?”
Zhao Lingfei looked at Rong’er, her eyes fixed on his unnervingly calm deanor, shaking her head, “I wouldn’t dare.”
“Wouldn’t dare.” Zhao Rong murmured, then nodded, “But you thought about it, right? That’s enough.”
Zhao Lingfei reached out to hold Zhao Rong’s hand, “No, husband, listen to my explanation.”
Zhao Rong shook his sleeves, placing both hands behind him, leaving her grasp empty.
He turned slightly, hands behind his back, looking toward the door.
His handso profile, illuminated by the lamp, faced the three won.
The man squinted his eyes.
“As the husband of two fairies, I allowed them such suspicion; certainly, I’ve done sothing wrong… which ans I am faithless.”
“Mr. Zhu is my teacher at the Academy, though we privately address each other as Daoists, ultimately he is my teacher. For the two fairies to think I harbor impure thoughts towards my teacher, disregarding ethical principles… ans I am shaless and immoral.”
“Mr. Zhu cared for , visited my humble abode once, yet because of , he was wronged and misunderstood… that ans I am rude…”
Each ti Zhao Rong spoke, Zhao Lingfei and Zhao Qian’er took sharp breaths, their breathing becoming rapid, as if they couldn’t catch their breath.
The silent Zhu Yourong beside them, hearing one of the sentences, also clenched her hand under her sleeve.
The three won in the hall were all uneasy.
Zhao Rong paused for a mont, then suddenly murmured, “It turns out that in the eyes of the two wives who should be closest and most trusting to , Zhao Ziyu, I am a faithless, shaless, immoral, and rude person.”
He nodded, a realization dawning on his expression, “So that’s how it is.”
“Rong’er Brother!” Qian’er stumbled forward, hugging Zhao Rong’s arm, and cried, “Rong’er Brother, it’s all Qian’er’s fault, Qian’er is the one who doesn’t understand, you’re nothing like rude, shaless, immoral… definitely not! It’s Qian’er who’s rude, shaless, immoral, all Qian’er’s fault, you should punish Qian’er, it must be Qian’er’s fault, she’s the least useful, always making you and Miss angry.”
The crying girl tried to show a bright smile through her tears, begging him, “It’s all Qian’er’s mistake that things turned out this way. Please don’t be angry anymore, don’t… don’t fight with Miss, Rong’er Brother, if you’re unhappy, punish Qian’er, Qian’er is a thick-skinned dumb maid, very resilient, you can punish Qian’er whenever you’re upset, and Qian’er promises not to cry, so you can take out all your anger…”
Zhao Rong lowered his head and stayed still.
The crying girl pulled at his right hand, trying to make him slap her rain-drenched face.
Zhao Lingfei silently walked in front of Zhao Rong, her hands under her sleeves already clenched pale and bloodless fists, now releasing with trembling fingers.
She took his left hand with both of hers, softly calling:
“Rong’er Brother, Rong’er Brother, Lingfei was wrong, it was Lingfei who misunderstood you… Lingfei… Lingfei will give you the ink jade.”
Zhao Lingfei lifted Zhao Rong’s hands with both of hers, placing them against her soft chest, allowing him to feel the heated sensation through the delicate fabric.
“Lingfei is willing to give you everything, is that alright? Husband, it was Lingfei’s fault, please don’t be angry… or.”
As she spoke, she paused, raising Zhao Rong’s hands even higher, using her slender hands to lift his right hand.
She bowed her head, letting his slightly bent fingers touch the center of her forehead.
“Brother Rong, co look at my Heart Lake, I’m giving my Heart Lake and Divine Soul entirely to you, they’ve always been yours; hurry and see for yourself, or perhaps… let Teacher Zhu help you see, let her help refine my soul and see what kind of you truly resides in Lingfei’s heart…”
She smiled sincerely, “Or cut open Lingfei’s heart and see if this heart that has beat countless tis for you, is it red, is it hot; if there is any chill or impurity in the feelings I’ve given to you, then slice it a thousand tis, crush it, and throw it on the ground.”
The woman clutched the man’s hand, rose on her toes, looked up at him, smiling brightly.
“The Heart Lake and Divine Soul too; if there’s even the slightest shadow of dishonor or disgrace in your image in Lingfei’s heart and soul, then shatter the Heart Lake, destroy the Divine Soul, and never let them recover.”
Two girls each held a hand, pulling Zhao Rong, just like in childhood, when two young girls would drag along a fellow youth.
