Chen Shi gently took the delicate hand of the Beautiful Woman, his gaze sincere. "Madam, would you like to hear a story from ?"
"W-what kind of story?"
Lin Qiushui looked at Chen Shi, who was sitting beside her, trying to keep her voice calm, but she couldn't stop it from trembling.
She had already prepared to sacrifice her chastity to satisfy this scoundrel in front of her.
He held a secret in his hands.
If it were exposed...
She wouldn't be able to escape. She was well aware of the weight her beauty carried. She always covered her face when going out, yet even so, she had been harassed over the years.
In the Divine General's Manor, openly and secretly, who knew how many people coveted her body, but due to her status as a loyal widow, no one dared to push too hard. However, if her identity were exposed, they would likely pounce like hungry wolves, eager to devour her completely.
By then, her arms would be pillows for thousands, her lips tasted by countless others.
This was sothing she could never accept, even in death.
If she had to choose, she would rather submit to the man in front of her.
Just consider it being bitten by a dog.
"Last night, I had a dream. I dreamt I was in the Martial Practice Field's Elentary Class, where I t Song Fan and Madam..."
Then, Chen Shi spoke for a full hour.
At first, Lin Qiushui had no interest in listening.
But later, when he ntioned Elder Wang coercing her to fra Chen Shi, Song Fan's exceptional talent in cultivation, and her future marriage to Chen Shi, even having a son nad Chen Ping'an...
The story was full of holes, completely implausible. For instance, why would Chen Shi, backed by the Seventh Madam, waste ti in the Martial Practice Field's Elentary Class?
Why would Elder Wang use such a foolish thod to fra soone with a strong background?
Yet the more she listened, the more puzzled her pretty face beca.
Because, based on what he said, when she put herself in that situation, she realized it truly aligned with her inner thoughts. In such an environnt, she might indeed make such decisions, which sent chills down her spine—not because of Chen Shi's story, but because the person who concocted this story seed to understand her inner thoughts as if they were a worm in her stomach!
Seeing the faint smile on Chen Shi's lips, she felt a sense of sha, as if her body had been stripped bare, with no secrets left.
Was this really just a story?
Suddenly, this thought arose in her mind.
"By the way, a month before Chen Ping'an was born, I asked her a question. I said, if I went back to the past and knew her, but she didn't know , what should I do? Madam, would you like to know how she answered?"
Lin Qiushui instinctively asked, "How did she answer?"
Chen Shi glanced at Lin Qiushui, his tone wistful. "She said to tell our story to Madam. If Madam didn't believe it, to ask her... if she still rembered Hua Ying?"
[Ding!]
[Your bond with Lin Qiushui has deepened!]
[Destiny Points 30.]
"You! You, you..."
Lin Qiushui stared at the man in front of her, too shocked to speak.
Hua Ying!
It was her deepest secret!
A secret no one in this world could possibly know!
Seeing Lin Qiushui's loss of composure, Chen Shi grew curious. "Madam, who is this Hua Ying?"
"A friend from a dream..."
"In a dream?"
Lin Qiushui took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. "It's all old news, not worth ntioning. But since Young Master can na Hua Ying, I am willing to believe you. If there's anything you need to do, I... won't refuse."
This ti, it was Chen Shi's turn to be stunned.
He hadn't expected a single na to cause such a drastic change in Lin Qiushui's attitude.
He beca more interested in this person nad Hua Ying and continued, "I asked her in the dream who Hua Ying was, but she didn't tell . Instead, she told to go back and ask Madam..."
"Young Master, I can't tell you either," Lin Qiushui shook her head.
"Why not?"
"Hua Ying told that if I revealed anything about her, it could bring disaster to my family and friends."
"Is it that serious?"
Chen Shi was taken aback.
But soon after, he didn't press further.
