"Wen Qihe, are you missing a screw in your head? We're both women, how can we be together for eternity? Don't you even know your own gender?"
Cen Xi slowly turned around, truly at a loss for words to describe her feelings at that moment.
In modern times, although homosexuality exists, that's other people's business. She's straight, an innocent girl who couldn't be straighter.
These words really made her...
real……
There's no way to continue.
"Anyway, I don't care. You didn't run away when you were married, so you are my husband. Until I find someone I love in return, you have to accept this identity. If you don't agree to stay, I... I'll jump off a cliff. I haven't offended you. You're being dragged into this innocently. Your conscience will always be uneasy."
Wen Qihe walked straight into Cen Xi's courtyard, where she was most adept at throwing a tantrum and acting spoiled.
"You... I have no conscience."
Cen Xi never expected this shameless woman to be so persistent.
Even if you have no conscience, you can't stop me from entering your Flying Phoenix Mountain.
Wen Qihe actually knew that Cen Xi didn't hate her that much; she was just genuinely angered by her brother, that sly fox. Her brother, too, had really bitten off more than he could chew this time.
Let's see how he handles things later.
Wen Qihe guessed correctly. Cen Xi did have a certain fondness for Wen Qihe's personality. She was unpretentious, and sometimes her quirky ideas even coincided with her own.
So even though she was very angry today, she didn't think about doing anything to her. Fine, let her stay for now. If she sends any more messages to Wen Qi, then don't blame her for being ruthless.
Seeing the two people enter the courtyard one after the other, Zhu Yanniang was completely bewildered and couldn't wait to ask:
"Cen Xi, why did she come in with you? Could it be that you really consider her your wife?"
"She refused to leave, saying that if I chased her away again, she would jump off a cliff. I had no choice but to pick her up."
"I'm sorry about last night. I was targeted by a jerk and had to run away. I'll make up for the other men later when I have time."
Cen Xi sat down on a stone bench in the courtyard and spoke casually.
"So that's how it is. I thought you were untrustworthy. I came here today to settle scores with you, but since you say so, I'll reluctantly forgive you."
"What about the money you earned last night? Let me see how much it is."
Since she entered the martial arts world, Zhu Yanniang has always been easy to talk to as long as you don't offend her. So she easily let bygones be bygones when Cen Xi stood her up last night.
"Well, there were three men in total. The first man gave one thousand taels, the second man gave five thousand taels, and the third man gave one thousand taels. Here they are."
Cen Xi calculated the accounts for her, then took out the silver notes and placed them on the table for Zhu Yanniang to see.
"So much money?"
Zhu Yanniang asked, her eyes wide open.
"Um!"
Cen Xi nodded in agreement.
"But I only slept with one man. The second one was too old, and I just couldn't bring myself to do it, so I went to other rooms to snatch men. So, does this really make that much money?"
"No, not really. I used some tricks last night, which is why I have so much silver. The old guy you mentioned tried to get five thousand taels for nothing, but I just tricked him. Did you poison him? The second one is even worse than the first."
Cen Xi and Zhu Yanniang were seriously discussing the bizarre things they had done the night before, which made Wen Qihe roll her eyes in exasperation.
"Husband, so you're saying the marks on your body weren't done by Prime Minister Shen? You went to a brothel last night and did *that*?"
"..."
Cen Xi looked at her speechlessly, thinking to herself, "Can't you just shut up? She finally managed to forget that man completely, and you're just rubbing salt into my wounds again."
"You slept with a man last night too? Well, you've got some nerve. Didn't you say you weren't interested in men?"
Wen Qihe's words successfully piqued Zhu Yanniang's curiosity.
"Me... am I the kind of person who goes back on their word? If I say I don't like something, then I don't like it. But some scoundrels just act like scoundrels and do these kinds of despicable things all the time."
Cen Xi was speechless for a moment, but then she remembered that it was all that bastard's doing. What did she have to be afraid of? She was forced into it.
"Tell me, who is this scoundrel?"
Zhu Yanniang's words are full of gossip.
“I know, it was Prime Minister Shen Jinchen of the Grand Banquet. Those red marks and spots on her body were all caused by him, definitely.”
Wen Qihe felt like she was in class, listening to the teacher's lecture, and when the teacher asked a question, she happened to know the answer and answered it first.
What should Cen Xi do if she really wants to throw her off a cliff right now?
This time, she didn't even need to jump; she wanted to kick her off.
"Hey, you stood me up last night, was it because of this man?"
Cen Xi found Zhu Yanniang's smile utterly disgusting.
So they quickly changed the subject:
"Well, he's just a shameless bastard. I couldn't beat him, and I couldn't outrun him, so I suffered a loss. Anyway, let's not talk about that. Didn't you say you had some way to make money? Tell me about it."
"Don't try to change the subject with me. We're talking about your man. Tell me, what did he do to you? Did he lose his virginity last night?"
Zhu Yanniang wouldn't be fooled by Cen Xi. She was an expert in matters of love and sex, and Cen Xi was clearly not simple.
How could she possibly let go of such a perfect opportunity for gossip?
"Whether she lost her virginity or not, do you even need to ask? That sister, why don't you take off her clothes and see for yourself? I think it's doubtful. You said no one saved her, I bet she's already been devoured by Shen Xiang."
Wen Qihe was also someone who loved stirring things up; she was quite curious about this kind of thing anyway.
"I'm still a virgin, okay? I still have my virginity mark. You guys shouldn't be making fun of me like this."
"Get out of my way, Zhu Yanniang. Are you still not going to talk business? Wen Qihe, do you think I'm soft-hearted? Don't think you can threaten me with your little threats. If you're so capable, go ahead and jump. It's your life, not mine. Why should I feel guilty?"
Cen Xi was extremely annoyed to see the two of them ganging up on her, and she was powerless against the man.
"Fine, I'll shut up. I still have a criminal record with this woman, so I'd better keep a low profile."
When Wen Qihe saw Cen Xi bring up the old topic again, she quickly shut up and went into Cen Xi's room.
"Don't take my room. The room on the far right is empty, so you can stay there. If you don't like it, then go back to your Wen family."
Cen Xi stopped Wen Qihe from going into her room, looking annoyed.
"She has quite a temper, and I don't know... I don't know what certain men saw in her."
Wen Qihe muttered something and went into the rightmost room as Cen Xi had suggested.
"I'm going to rest now. I was busy all night and didn't sleep well. We can talk about business tomorrow."
Zhu Yanniang was afraid that Cen Xi would get angry and not give her any good advice, so she made an excuse to go to sleep as well.
