“I don’t understand.” After a long silence, Qin Minghong sighed softly. “l.
never wanted to compete with Mingyao for favor. In fact, I was very envious of Mingyao, but she still couldn’t tolerate me. She even treated me as a thorn in her side. Now, Father is actually going to divorce her. I don’t feel happy at all. I even feel a little depressed.”
“Different positions mean you will have different thoughts. Since you ‘re not fated, why force it?” Shen Yao said slowly and softly, “Human nature is selfish. Why don’t you think about it? If your mother was still alive, would you still expect Madam Liu to dote on you?”
Qin Minghong fell silent.
If his mother was still alive, he would definitely hate Madam Liu to the core, right?
“The eldest branch of the Qin family doesn’t have offspring. The second branch only gave birth to you and Qin Mingyao,” Shen Yao analyzed calmly. “In your stepmother’s eyes, everything in the Qin family naturally has to fall into the hands of her biological son. Only then will she be at ease.”
‘Your uncle is a Rank 4 General and has many military achievements. He can even stand tall in front of the current emperor. It’s a pity that he disappeared in the Battle of Fei River 16 years ago…” Shen Yao looked into his eyes and analyzed seriously, “Your aunt came from an illustrious family, but your stepmother didn’t fix her own position. It’s not strange that she ended up being divorced.”
“Brother Qin, instead of being sad for someone unimportant, why don’t you think about your future?’
A moment later, Qin Minghong looked at Shen Yao and raised his glass with a smile. “Listening to your words is better than studying for ten years.”
‘You flatter me.” Shen Yao smiled. “It’s getting late. Brother Qin, go back and rest early!”
“I still have one more question.” Qin Minghong thought about it and asked, “If there comes a day when I can’t be surnamed Qin anymore…”
“Family name is just a title,” Shen Yao said very honestly. “If your surname is Zhou, Zhaozhao and I will call you Big Brother Zhou. If your surname is Wu, we will call you Big Brother Wu. Your surname is not important. What’s important is that you are you.’
“I’m me?” Qin Minghong thought carefully about these words and then came to a realization. “Yes, I’m just me. What does my surname have to do with anything?”
“Goodbye.” Seeing his enlightened expression, a faint smile finally appeared on Shen Yao’s face.
In the kitchen, just as Ji Zhao was about to bring out the prepared Drunken Shrimp, Shen Yao suddenly walked in.
“Eh? Why did you come in?” Ji Zhao blinked and asked curiously, “Where’s
Brother Qin?”
“He’s gone back.”
“Huh?” Ji Zhao was even more confused. “But he hasn’t tasted the Drunken Shrimp yet, right? Is he in a better mood now?’
“He’s fine.” Shen Yao suddenly reached out to hold her shoulders. He lowered his head to look into her eyes and said aggrievedly, “I’m not fine.”
‘Why?”
‘What do you think?”
Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows slightly and tiptoed to kiss his cheek. ‘What about now? Are you feeling better? Big vinegar vat-”
“It’s not enough-I’ Shen Yao smiled gently. Catching her off guard, he picked her up and turned to return to the house.
The night breeze was slightly cool, and the candlelight flickered. The red waves of the quilt stirred under the continuous drizzle.
Again and again.
It was another night of passion, and it was already dawn.
When dawn broke, it was raining.
The sleepy Ji Zhao saw the man beside her and asked lazily, “Shen Yao, what time is it?’
“It’s loam.”
“Oh,” Ji Zhao replied silently. She found a comfortable position in his arms and closed her eyes.
A moment later, she suddenly looked up. “It’s already10am?! Aren’t we going to the Qin Residence for a banquet today?”
“There’s no need to go for the time being.” Shen Yao played with a strand of black hair that fell on her shoulder and explained gently, “Brother Qin said last night that the birthday banquet has been canceled.”
“Canceled? Why?”
“I heard that the second master of the Qin family wants to divorce his wife.” Shen Yao tapped the tip of her nose affectionately. “Let’s not talk about this. It’s still raining outside. Why don’t you sleep a little longer? Hmm?”
“Then will you accompany me?”
“Are you sure?” Shen Yao raised his eyebrows and looked at her. The light in his eyes was obvious.
“It’s better not to…” Ji Zhao, who immediately admitted defeat, silently pulled the thin blanket over herself. “When I wake up, I want to eat shredded meat noodles.”
“Okay.”
When it was close to noon, the rain stopped.
Ji Zhao got up from the bed with difficulty. As she rubbed her sore waist, she cursed Shen Yao ten thousand times in her heart!
This man was simply a hungry wolf!
“Try it?” Shen Yao walked to her side with the bowl and chopsticks and said softly, “My cooking is not as good as yours, so you can only make do with it.”
“It’s already very fragrant! Ji Zhao praised generously when she smelled the fragrance of the bowl of shredded meat noodles.
Just as she was about to reach out to take the bowl and chopsticks, Shen Yao avoided her.
‘Yes?”
“I’ll feed you.”
“Isn’t this a little exaggerated?” Ji Zhao subconsciously blurted out.
‘Why don’t you try?’
Fifteen minutes later, Ji Zhao angrily handed the chopsticks to him.
“I’m not eating.”
It was really embarrassing. She had never expected that the aftereffects of the couple’s intercourse would be so strong that she could not even hold her chopsticks properly!
“It’s all my fault. Zhaozhao, don’t be angry, okay?” Shen Yao coaxed her gently. Then, he brought the bowl of noodles to her lips.
When Immortal Crane rushed to this courtyard, he saw the scene of the two of them being intimate.
“Master? Why are you here?” Ji Zhao welcomed him with a smile, but she was flicked by Immortal Crane!
Ji Zhao silently held her forehead and looked at him aggrievedly. ‘Master, why did you do that?”
“To think that you still have me in your eyes as your master!” Immortal Crane poked her head angrily. “The two of you secretly moved out of the inn without telling me?”
Ji Zhao, who was in the wrong, silently shrunk her head and immediately admitted her mistake. “l know my mistake.”
“Senior, this is not Zhaozhao’s fault. It’s my negligence.” Shen Yao shielded Ji Zhao behind him with heartache and explained sincerely, “l originally wanted to tell you after we settled down. After all, this courtyard is a little simple and doesn’t have the comfort of an inn.”
“Hmph.” Immortal Crane rolled his eyes at him. “Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? You did it on purpose!’
However, this punk was still too young!
He would not watch his good disciple be bullied by him!
“I left the inn in a hurry just now and didn’t have time to eat lunch.”
“Then what do you want to eat, Master? I’ll make it for you,” Ji Zhao quickly said. She stood up and was about to go to the kitchen, but her legs went soft and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Shen Yao quickly caught her.
‘You can’t even stand properly, why are you still cooking?” The Immortal Crane was angry and felt heartache. He pointed at Shen Yao and said angrily, “Go and cook another bowl of noodles!”
“Alright, please wait a moment.. ‘
