Chapter Sixty-Four

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Those that know Yuwen Rui has wake-up temper are very little, those that have witnessed Yuwen Rui’s wake-up temper is even more less than very little. In my memory, I too, have only seen it once before, but even from that one time, I am able to deeply understand, when this man is sleeping, one must absolutely never disturb him, you must patiently wait for him to ‘wake-up naturally’, if not, he’ll have you die without even knowing how it happened.

At that time, we did not know Yuwen Rui for long, in the eyes of the children, this eldest cousin is pretty-looking, with a gentle smile, his temperament also gentle, practically a figure like a deity. That early morning, Imperial Sister and I, as well as Su Qi, had went to the General Estate together to find him, Ling Zhi apologetically tells us Yuwen Rui is still sleeping, having us wait in the guest hall first. Yet Imperial Sister did not comply upon hearing this, to the young her that has been doted on since a very young age, other than having waited for Father Emperor, who else would dare to make her wait?

Imperial Sister with her hand on heart, insisted on calling for him, pushing away Ling Zhi and charges into the room. Due to the matter of status, Ling Zhi could not hold her back either, only able to reveal a ‘we’re done for’ expression. At that time, I don’t know what I was thinking, pulling back Su Qi’s hand like my life depended on it, not letting him follow after in charging in –– reality proves that I was correct, was wise, because in less than a minute, Imperial Sister was brutally thrown out by someone inside, as for that cleanly refined and handsome youth, his lazy eyes contained haziness and ice-coldness. He does not utter a word, slowly shutting the doors right before our faces, and then Imperial Sister’s crying resounded through the heavens and earth, heartbreaking and lung piercing.

The next day, Imperial Sister went crying to Father Emperor to voice her complaints, but Father Emperor strangely doesn’t go with Imperial Sister’s intention to lecture Yuwen Rui, and instead, gives Imperial Sister a good scolding, then not long after, Imperial Sister had Yun Mi’s strictest female etiquette officer, mercilessly torturing her into a qualified fair lady.

I have always wondered, whether the reason why Imperial Sister holds not an ounce of romantic feelings for Yuwen Rui, is because of the influence of this matter.

Also that time he saved Bai Jian Fei, the several thieves were said to have been beaten to cry out in pain nonstop, in the end, even speaking a sentence completed with words was a luxury.

You guys look look look look, these are all disasters brought upon by the wake-up temper ah, these are! Now take a look at what the problem I am facing right now is? If it isn’t this type of most unfortunate situation!

I rapidly withdraw myself from the memories, saying to him with utmost sincerity: “Cousin, this is an accident.” Definitely, definitely, definitely an accident.

“En, accident.” His hand that’s on my waist wander back and forth, deeply saying: “And?”

“Cousin, where is there no accidents in life?” I furrow my brows, exerting all efforts in staying calm, “I’ll get up now, Cousin, you continue.”

Yuwen Rui’s lips slightly hooks up on one end, half narrowing his fox eyes as he lazily says: “Continue?”

I strongly nod, “Cousin listen, there’s the sound of thunder outside, right? Cousin listen again, there’s the sound of strong winds outside, right? Cousin think about it, it might start raining, right?”

“En.”

“Cousin, with thunder and rain outside, you’re within the blankets, time and place perfectly matching, it is precisely the best time to be sleeping ah!” I loudly sigh, “If not sleep now, when will you sleep?”

“Not a bad idea.” Yuwen Rui lightly chuckles, his handsome face carrying a meaningful smile, “I shall take your suggestion then, sleep.”

I let out a sigh of relief, just as I was about to praise him with ‘Cousin is wise’, the back of my head is heavily hooked in, what followed was me strongly pasting against his soft lips. The strength in his hands at my waist and head is extremely strong, so strong that I am simply incapable of rebelling and escaping. His wet tongue wraps around mine, persistently entangled, carrying the domineering attitude of not allowing any refusal, and resolute in swallowing everything up, causing my heart to miss a few beats.

I lose my breath through the kiss, and can only leave him to continuously deepen it, originally thinking that he would stop when he had enough, just like in the past, but didn’t think that the hand at my waist would actually move up to my belt.

“Mm……Cou-……” I desperately try to avoid his tongue, both hands tugging at his wrist, attempting to avoid his airtight, deep kiss and his touch on my waist. Just that all of this has no effect on him at all.

“Mm!” I couldn’t hold back from strongly smacking his hand.

Yuwen Rui’s pair of eyes that have always been clear and cold is thickly coated with a layer of lust and haze, he slightly parts the tightly pasted pairs of lips, and with a seeming smile, he places his index finger against my lips, doing the ‘shush’ gesture.

“Yuwen Rui, don’t you……” Just as I spoke up to angrily shout at him, I was easily stopped, watching him say to me with ill-intentions: “Chen Liang is outside.”

Before I realised why he said this, I felt my waist suddenly tighten, and in a blur of the moment, I had switched position with Yuwen Rui, overturned and pressed under his body. His hand continues to dangerously wander around my waist, causing my entire body to tremble.

“Yuwen Rui!” I lower my voice as I fiercely say: “You let go now!”

Yet Yuwen Rui just lightly smiles, eyes flowing with traces of devilishness, he lowers his head and starts kissing along my neck, smooch after smooth, gentle and slow.

I feel the warm breath quickly spread from my ears to my entire face, I bend my neck as I say with difficulty: “You stop……ah!” He actually bit me!

Yuwen Rui ignores me, warm tongue slowly wanders around my neck, the wet touch making my heart go weak. He starts to strongly nibble, romantically ambiguous sucking sounds are softly heard, and I am also starting to feel the slightly stinging pain on my skin.

I tightly bite back the exclamation at my almost cracked lips, such sudden and unusual behaviour coming from Yuwen Rui truly renders me clueless as to what to do, this current situation……

I clench both hands, having just prepared to use my head to fiercely knock him, I hear someone joyfully cry out from outside the carriage: “It really is Chen Liang there, then isn’t it Yu Wen in the carriage?”

Yuwen Rui’s actions comes to an abrupt stop.

I inwardly cry out loud: Bai Jian Fei, you sure have come on time!

……

Half an hour later, Bai Wei and I sit in the same carriage, whilst Bai Jian Fei is with Yuwen Rui in another. Bai Wei is still showing me that apologetic smile, “Lady Mu, truly sorry, once again disturbing you and Gentleman Yu Wen.”

“No, of course not.” I say this from the bottom of my heart, had it not been for Bai Jian Fei’s appearance just now, the consequences would have been unpredictable ah, practically……

“Eh, but the look on Gentleman Yu Wen’s face just now……”

Look? What look on his face? Was it not just turning from blue to purple, and from purple to black, it’s nothing, it’s really nothing! I say: “Lady Bai, you and your older brother are……?”

Bai Wei sighs, “It is for my older sister’s matter……”

“Bai Qiang?”

“En.” Bai Wei lightly nods, “I didn’t tell you this last time, in fact, Sister……has poison in her body.”

“Poison?” I am speechless, Bai Qiang’s background sure is comparable to the miserable female leads……

“The poison in Sister’s body has already been there for many years, with no solution to it all along, only able to barely suppress it, don’t why but recently, the poison is starting to overpower the suppression, Sister is already lying in coma now……” Bai Wei’s eyes are filled with concern, “Brother heard that Divine Physician Liao Juan is currently in Tian Yin City, hence brought Sister and I along to rush here.” She laughs, “Didn’t think we would run into Gentleman Yu Wen and Lady Mu again, truly a coincidence. Are you two also heading to Tian Yin City?”

“En.” I nod, “Cousin have matters to do there.”

Bai Wei grabs my hand, happily laughing, “I also have matters to do there, was originally still thinking of how to do it, and now, I finally know.”

I suddenly get the feeling of my back turning cold.

The matter Bai Wei speaks of……shouldn’t involve dragging me into it, right?

After arriving at Tian Yin City, we find an inn to stay in together, amidst this, Bai Jian Fei reveals the matter of him wanting to find the divine physician, and coincidentally, Yuwen Rui is actually acquainted to that divine physician. Bai Jian Fei is naturally over the moon, hoping Yuwen Rui can find that famous physician with him, Yuwen Rui indifferently agrees, seeming to not see this as that big of a matter.

The next day, Yuwen Rui and Bai Jian Fei takes the unconscious Bai Qiang to find that famous physician, whilst Bai Wei joyfully comes finding me, and……asks me to accompany her to a place.

Half a sichen later, Bai Wei and I are dressed in male disguise, each holding a fan as we stand before ‘Fei Lai Feng’.

Bai Wei nervously sounds a few light coughs, hesitatingly asking me, “About this, Ah-Lan, are we really going in?”

The corner of my lips twitches, I lightly say: “If I haven’t remembered wrong, it was you who told me to accompany you here.”

Bai Wei dryly laughs, “Ho-ho, that’s right ah, it was me who told you to accompany me here, then……let’s go in?”

I spread open the fan and leisurely sway it, taking a step forward and walk into the building.

‘Fei Lai Feng’ is a place where men pay to have fun, but it isn’t a brothel, because the ladies in here are all talented, selling entertainment and not their bodies. The ladies of ‘Fei Lai Feng’ are said to all be beautiful like deities, don’t know how many men’s hearts have been enchanted by them, but they will never follow the men home and become concubines or engage in other relationships. The owner of ‘Fei Lai Feng’ is said to be quite the handsome-looking and talented man, the women of ‘Fei Lai Feng’ are enamoured of him, yet he treats them all equally, not favouring any one person in particular.

This is ‘Fei Lai Feng’.

The reason why Bai Wei wants to go to ‘Fei Lai Feng’ is very simple, she had once told me that she had liked a fickle-hearted man before, and the reason why that man had abandoned her is because he had been captivated by a woman in this ‘Fei Lai Feng’. Bai Wei is naturally angry and hurt, but she does not harbour any hate in her heart, she only wishes to take a look at exactly what kind of woman had snatched away the man she loved, that is all.

When we enter, we are welcomed by two delicately pretty girls, those two people not only have pretty faces, but their bodies are wrapped in an air of bright alertness, making people feel happy at the sight of them. The young woman on the left charmingly smiles as she says: “Good day to you two gentlemen, don’t know if Gentleman would like a private room or the main hall?”

“Private room.” I speak up in Bai Wei’s stead, lightly saying: “Find me your Lady Qing Zhi, I’ll have her booked for this afternoon.” Having said that, I take out a note of a hundred taels and hand it to her.

That girl accepts the note with a bright smile, “I shall go invite Lady Qing Zhi over now, Xiao Xiao, you take these two gentlemen to ‘Shui Yun Room’.

The girl named Xiao Xiao sweetly smiles, “This way please, gentlemen.”

I use the fan to cover the smile at my lips, no wonder why this ‘Fei Lai Feng’ is so famous, the ladies here alone are much higher class than the usual pleasure places.

We wait in Shui Yun Room for approximately half a quarter of an hour, before a beautiful woman in green fluttering clothing walks in with a pipa in her arms, she tenderly smiles at us, “Qing Zhi greets these two gentlemen.”

“Do stand, take-, take a seat.” Bai Wei is slightly dazed, her eyes firmly fixed on Qing Zhi’s body, “You are Qing Zhi?”

Qing Zhi sits down as told, nodding and says: “This girl is Qing Zhi indeed.”

Bai Wei drinks a big mouthful of tea, openly saying: “I heard Chen Zhuo wanted to wed you as his wife, why did you not accept it?”

Qing Zhi slightly pauses, then when she looks at Bai Wei again, her eyes shows clear understanding, softly saying: “Gentleman is speaking of the Magistrate Chen of He Yang’s third gentleman?”

“Indeed.” Bai Wei’s eyes is sparkling, filled with curiosity.

“Gentleman Chen ah……” Qing Zhi lowers her eyes, “Such a coincidence.”

“What?”

“Does Gentleman perhaps know who is in the room next door?”

Bai Wei is slightly puzzled, “Who?”

Qing Zhi speaks with slight satire: “It is precisely Chen Zhuo – Gentleman Chen.”

The teacup in Bai Wei’s hand is roughly placed down, exclaiming: “What? Then, then since he’s here, why would you be here?”

“Gentleman must be joking, how could there be so many why?” Qing Zhi takes out a handkerchief from her sleeve and hands it to Bai Wei, “Gentleman Chen likes another lady, is with the lady next door, nothing more than that.”

“Cheng Zhuo!” Bai Wei angrily smacks the table, “That day, he was telling me how much how much he likes you, saying that being unable to marry you is a lifetime’s regret! I only gave up on the betrothal between us because he said it like that, didn’t think that it has only been a few days, only been a few days!”

“May Gentleman simmer down.” Qing Zhi calmly smiles, but disappointment is difficult to conceal, “How could a man’s word be taken for truth? Not to mention it’s in regard to people of our status.”

Bai Wei slightly pauses, “Lady Qing Zhi……”

“What’s wrong with people of your status?” I rest my chin in hand as I lazily speak up, “You are of this status, but didn’t you still reject him?”

Qing Zhi appears to be at loss upon hearing this, then smiles as she says: “Gentleman’s words are correct, no matter what, it was I who rejected Gentleman Chen.”

“But he’s so outrageous!” At this time, Bai Wei reveals her frankness, angrily saying: “Acting like such a passionate lover in front of my face, didn’t think he is of such standards!”

“En, and so?” I toss a melon seed into my mouth, “You know he is fickle, know he isn’t worth much, now what?”

“Now, now……” Bai Wei glances at Qing Zhi, dejectedly saying: “Let’s head back now, so meaningless.”

I spit out the shell of the seed, “Let’s go.”

Don’t know whether we should say it’s a coincidence or not, but when Bai Wei and I leave the doors, a man in purple clothing and a woman in white clothing walks out from the room next door, the smile on that man’s delicate face is spotlessly wiped away upon seeing Bai Wei, saying in great shock: “Bai Wei, why would you be here?”

“Why would I be here?” Bai Wei immediately strikes back, looking at him in disdain as she says: “I’ve yet to ask why you would be here? Could the one next to you be Lady Qing Zhi?”

The smile on the woman in white’s face slightly stiffens, “This girl is not Qing Zhi, this girl’s name is Hong Yao.”

“Hong Yao ah……” Bai Wei deliberately stretch out her words, “Didn’t think that having not seen for a few days, Gentleman Chen’s beloved had already changed people ah, really don’t know who it was that came begging me, saying how much he loved Lady Qing Zhi, loving her to the point of heart breaking!”

“Shut up!” Chen Zhuo’s face flushes red, “You – a woman, actually dressed up in such a neither fish nor fowl way to come to this kind of place! Do you not know of shame?!”

“What kind of place is this?!” Bai Wei is angered to the extreme, “Not like I came to make my way around the ladies here, why can’t I come here?!”

“Bai Wei! You, I already said I don’t like you, no matter how much you pester me, I still wouldn’t like you!” Chen Zhuo’s embarrassment turns into fury as he says: “What’s it got to do with you whether I like Qing Zhi or Hong Yao?! Not like I would like you anyway! Before it was because of the betrothal, but now that there is no betrothal, you harbour more wild wishes of me liking you!”

“Chen Zhuo, you, you……” Bai Wei did not expect Chen Zhuo would actually say such words, eyes reddening on the spot.

“You think I would like you? A joke!” Chen Zhuo still continues without any sense of timing, saying: “If not for the betrothal between us, like I’d even bother to spare you a glance! How could you compare to Hong Yao?”

Bai Wei shakes in anger, actually unable to say a word back.

I cannot bear the sight of this man acting like a two-fifty (In ancient china 500copper coins makes up one string of coins, 250 coins thus makes half a string, hence words like “two-fifty” and “half-stringed” were used as a way to call people half-brained), taking a stance in front of Bai Wei, I lightly say: “So you’re Chen Zhuo?”

“And who are you?” This guy truly is like a two-fifty.

I gently clear my throat, then mercilessly kick him in the crotch, all whilst giving him four words.

I say: “I’m called five-hundred.”

Chen Zhuo sounds a miserable cry of pain as he jumps up, and before the people around me was able to react, I grab Bai Wei’s hand and run, all whilst happily laughing.

“Ah-, Ah-Lan, that kick of yours just now seems to be very heavy ah!”

“En, it was very heavy.”

“Then isn’t he……”

“You still have it in you to worry about him?” I roll my eyes at her, “How many people are chasing behind?”

Only now does Bai Wei realise there’s a huge line of hired thugs chasing after us, frantically say: “Quickly hide hide!”

At this time, a half-opened door to a room just happened to appear next to us, I pull Bai Wei along as we swiftly hide inside, then close the doors and desperately press against it.

The people chasing after us run past with the sound of “pi-li-pa-la”, Bai Wei and I had just let out a sigh in relief, when we see that the originally empty room suddenly has another man. That man’s head of black hair loosely falls, looking glossier than silk, his skin looking like snow against his body of red brocade robes, and his face……a beauty that overthrows states and cities.

At the same time we were studying him, he had already walked up to Bai Wei, long and slender fingers gently raising Bai Wei’s chin as he says: “Where has this lady come from? Look at how smooth this skin is, just like tofu!”

Bai Wei had presumably been stunned by this person’s beauty, and so, I could only speak up in saying: “This is……”

“Look at this hair, afraid you have spent a lot of efforts!” The man then feels Bai Wei’s hair, tutting and sighing, seeming to not notice my presence at the side at all.

“This gentleman……”

“Look at this little hand, soft ah! Must have never done housework!”

“I said……”

“This face on the other hand isn’t dazzling enough, but fortunately the demeanour isn’t bad, en en, not bad!”

“About that……”

“Also this figure! Truly exquisitely curved ah, any man would like the sight of it!”

I take a deep breath, saying with extreme calmness: “Remove your hands now, ladyboy.”

The stunningly beautiful man’s face instantly stiffens, his molesting hands comes to a stop, and robotically turns to look at me, pretty eyes filled with disbelief.

╮(╯_╰)╭

Indeed, when facing this type of unparalleled narcissistic, self-centred, and snooty fellow, courtesy is thoroughly useless.
