After Indulging in Alchemy, the Madam Was Cringed Over by the Duke

Side story: 'The Literary Society Continued' (Thank you for your donations)

The knights of the Cold Jade Knights have been a bit hot-tempered lately.

The reason is some 'strange literature' that has been repeatedly banned in the central city.

After training, nothing was more enjoyable than having a glass of white beer at a pub with my comrades and a few plates of the proprietress's special side dishes.

But now...

After training, the Cavaliers were all distracted.

The reason was that their wives had recently been keeping quiet about literature, which led to them being very cold towards them.

In order to eradicate this kind of literary work that hindered the relationship between husband and wife, the knights had to shout to each other from a distance of at least 3 meters if they wanted to talk.

If they're just 1 centimeter shorter, they'll wait a few days until they both appear in 'strange literature'.

The one who changed the most was Knight Locke, the once kind-hearted member of the Knights and later a heartthrob. This former social butterfly suddenly became socially awkward.

A simple pat on the arm by Lance could send someone leaping onto the roof beam in fright.

In the locker room, Lance thought there were no women there, so he habitually hooked his arm around Locke's neck, startling Locke into throwing him over his shoulder.

He was thrown flat on his back.

Lance: "...Holy shit!"

Locke was on the verge of tears, "Don't touch me! I don't want to have nightmares about being sexually assaulted by you guys again!!"

After he finished speaking, the knights in the locker room all turned green.

With a loud bang, Pang Sen kicked the wardrobe. "No! This can't go on! We have to think of a countermeasure!"

Several people looked at him at the same time, "How to cure it? That damned 'Literary Society' that's the biggest, the biggest leader is the Duchess..."

"Look at His Highness, does he seem like someone who can be controlled?"

The ladies of the literary society have been discreetly avoiding His Excellency the Duke lately.

So the duke, who was not directly involved in the affair, turned a blind eye to the ladies' behavior.

"We need to teach them a lesson."

"You mean 'demolish houses'?" Knight Lance, who had learned a new word from his wife, shook his head. "It's useless. You demolish one, and they'll rebuild 20 for you in no time."

"I don't want to play like that last time with Ferran's Cavaliers, it was all fake. Damn, it really hurt. I rubbed it with liniment for ages afterwards."

“No, I mean, let’s do this…” Pang Sen beckoned with his index finger, and the men huddled together whispering.

After they finished speaking, the men's expressions turned strange.

"Will it work?"

"I think it's reliable."

"Damn! My family has a business! I'll handle it!"

...

Li Aili was not very satisfied with the "food" contributed by the ladies at the recent "literary gathering".

Also, there's everyone's state of mind.

The wives all looked worried, making it hard for her to continue pretending not to notice.

So she clapped her hands lightly, and the maid respectfully withdrew.

The Camellia Hall door closed. "Alright, it's time for some private chatter. Come on, let's talk about something we can't talk about. I'll start."

"I'm secretly shipping the Duke and the Pope."

The ladies: "…………………………………………"

You're truly fearless...

Anne: [If the Duke finds out, he might really kill you, Ellie...]

Lily: [Should I get Ellie a cushion beforehand...? Hmm, it's really useful when my husband's been giving me a hard time.]

Li Aili: "..." Thank you so much!!!

“Um…” Lady Pangsen said, “I don’t know if I should say this…”

Her smile was somewhat bitter. "I suspect Pang Sen is having an affair."

Anne was the first to slam her hand on the table and stand up, "I'll get Balk to beat him up!"

Li Aili quickly stopped her, "No, no, no, don't rush to conclusions about this. Don't get involved either, or it might end up ruining our friendship."

Then, she looked at Mrs. Pangsen reassuringly, "Tell me what exactly happened?"

The sisters surrounded her, some offering tea, others patting her back, and one even contributed her own personal blanket.

Mrs. Pangsen was clearly feeling much better, and said with tears in her eyes, "Thank you!"

She began to speak slowly, “I discovered that the problem occurred in the last few days.”

“He hasn’t gone out at night for a long time; he used to go drinking with the knights.”

“But since…” she paused, “you know, he hasn’t been there in a long time.”

Li Aili: "..."

"Then, not long ago, he came back smelling of perfume. When I asked him about it, he stammered."

“I followed him once and found out, found out he went to that kind of place, sob sob sob…”

After saying that, she couldn't take it anymore and broke down in tears.

"Was I wrong? Waaaaah..."

"If I didn't ship him with random couples, he would still go drinking with his best buddies instead of cheating on me with another woman... Waaaaah..."

The room was deathly quiet.

Then Locke's wife, her face pale, said, "Actually... Locke is too."

“Lance too.”

"Jonathan too."

"Raynes too."

Li Aili: "………………"

She narrowed her eyes slightly. A group going to prostitutes?

Why did she sense a conspiracy?

Mrs. Pang wiped away her tears. "Actually, I've been thinking about this for several days."

“I feel that marriage is more important than my hobbies, and I want to save my marriage.”

Annie stood up angrily and yelled, "Are you out of your mind? That scoundrel cheating on his wife is his problem! What does it have to do with you!"

Li Aili stopped Annie and shook her head at her.

Mrs. Pangsen, her face pale, stood up and gave Li Aili a ladylike curtsy. "Madam... I would like to withdraw from the Literary Society."
