Chapter 1078 Deliberately Committing a Crime
Bai Ying covered her face, thinking, "Don't expect him to clean up this mess; he can't handle it."
"Young Madam, what makes you say that?"
Bai Ying couldn't think of a solution, so she could only buy time for Qi Heng in the inner room, hoping that her master, being so clever, might have a way.
"Pah! You have the nerve to ask my young lady?"
Qi'er has a fiery temper and doesn't care about anything anymore. Even if the master kills her, she will tell the truth.
You can't be so shameless. If your lord isn't sincere, don't pretend to be so affectionate. It's disgusting.
"The master is embracing the courtesan in the inner room, making muffled noises, while you're eating and listening in the outer room. Don't you have some kind of perverted hoax about eavesdropping?"
Before Qi'er could even start cursing, Qingxing joined the fray, pointing at Bai Ying and saying, "I never expected you to be this kind of person."
How unworthy it was for Red Heart to die for White Shadow.
Qingxing was heartbroken. If Hongtao hadn't refused the marriage proposal, she wouldn't have been beaten half to death by the Prince of Zhenbei. As a result, Baiying disliked her, thinking that Hongtao was delusional and a burden to him.
Later, Red Peach died for White Shadow. Even if someone is a person and has a little bit of conscience left, they shouldn't fall in love with someone else in such a short time, right?
If that's the case, then stop pretending to be so devoted, it's just scum!
Bai Ying covered her face, not daring to refute, secretly lamenting her misfortune.
Why hasn't the Lord reacted yet? Hurry up and rescue him from this predicament.
At this moment, Qi Heng smiled bitterly in the inner room. He was in dire straits himself, so of course he dared not speak up for Bai Ying.
Lin Yuesha waited for a long time, but Qi Heng still didn't come out, and her already ignited anger intensified.
"Do I need to ask you to come out?"
Lin Yuesha strode around the screen and entered the inner room, just in time to trap Ji Meiren and Qi Heng on the bed.
Qi Heng lay on the bed, his upper body naked and his lower body covered by a thin blanket. He was a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder, so what had happened was self-evident.
Seeing this, Lin Yuesha sneered, "You think I won't recognize you just because you don't speak?"
"My wife, this is a misunderstanding. Please let me explain."
Qi Heng dared not show his face, suffering in silence; he had never felt so helpless.
"Explain what? Explain why you came to the brothel to seek pleasure with the courtesans?"
Lin Yuesha's tone was indifferent; she was somewhat disappointed, but not as sad as one might expect.
Since arriving in Daqi, she had been prepared. Most men in this era were like this; once they had a little money, they couldn't help but have philandering ideas and would come to brothels to find girls for pleasure.
Lin Yuesha disagreed and could not accept it.
The time and place for the couple to meet were both awkward, so they might as well make things clear.
"How many of the vows we made back then do you still remember?"
Lin Yuesha pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed; she needed to clearly express her opinion.
"Qi Heng, from this day forward, we are no longer husband and wife."
Lin Yuesha hoped the two could part amicably and not resort to coercion; she didn't like that.
Even a rabbit will bite when cornered, and Lin Yuesha is far more formidable than a rabbit.
Upon hearing this, Qi Heng felt a chill in his heart. He remained motionless, thinking that this was definitely the most difficult moment of his life.
Especially in front of his subordinates, he would have to consider silencing them once he reconciled with his wife.
"Young Madam, you have misunderstood the Master."
Ji Meiren originally wanted to watch the show, but seeing the bulging veins on the back of the master's hand, she knew that if he didn't speak up, and the couple reconciled afterward, she would definitely be the one who suffered the most.
"Young Madam, don't I look familiar?"
Ji Meiren gave a smile that looked more like a grimace and asked.
Lin Yuesha looked closely and realized that the courtesan in front of her looked somewhat familiar. She closed her eyes and thought for a moment, and finally remembered.
They had met two years ago.
"You are a man."
The person before her was the beauty Qi Heng had sent to test Hu Mian two years ago. Lin Yuesha had some impression of her because she was so charming. She was even more surprised when she learned that the person was a man.
"So, my wife, this is all a misunderstanding."
Qi Heng felt more bitter than bitter herbs, and hoped to use his status as a male subordinate to make a point.
What could he, Ji Meiren, and Bai Ying, three grown men, possibly do in a brothel just to recuperate from their injuries and avoid attention?
He was trying to explain, but Lin Yuesha didn't see it that way at all.
"This is not a misunderstanding."
Lin Yuesha leaned back in her chair and sighed wistfully.
Qingxing immediately served tea. Lin Yuesha glanced at it and then shook her head. The tea in the brothel was undrinkable; who knew what was put in it?
"Qi Heng, you and I have been through life and death together, and our bond is extraordinary."
Lin Yuesha felt that she needed to have a heart-to-heart talk with Qi Heng. The two were close, but she never expected that Qi Heng would betray her!
Now that's a problem, she's already married, so how easy is it for her to remarry?
It's likely that no one except Yuwen Kun would dare to marry her.
Qi Heng was completely confused. Something seemed off, but he knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare to argue.
"My wife, why do you say that I've wronged you?"
The couple agreed to unite against external forces, to trick King Luo and Qi Heng together, but not to trick each other.
"It's obvious. You like men, but you're using me as a shield!"
This is what angered Lin Yuesha the most. She hadn't discovered Qi Heng's marriage fraud for years; he had really hidden it too well!
Upon hearing this, Qi Heng was stunned into silence.
It really was just a misunderstanding. Now his wife is overthinking things and is even saying that he likes men, which makes him very uncomfortable.
Qi Heng scratched his head; every extra word he uttered would be a mistake.
Bai Ying stepped forward, disregarding her own image, revealing the handprint on her back, and said, "Young Madam, my subordinate and the master were injured by the remnants of the Wei family, so we had no choice but to come to the brothel to cover our tracks."
Ji Meiren has an ancestral detoxification therapy, and she used scraping therapy to remove residual toxins from Qi Heng, which is why Lin Yuesha stumbled upon this scene when she entered the room.
There were no women, no pleasure, and no joy; only helplessness.
"My husband has been poisoned?"
Lin Yuesha was startled and quickly lifted the bed curtains, seeing a dark patch on Qi Heng's back.
"Get up."
After analyzing the situation, Lin Yuesha concluded that what Bai Ying said was true.
"My wife, my injuries are too severe, I cannot get up."
Qi Heng remained prone, not daring to show his face. His mask was sent for cleaning and would be returned by his subordinates the next morning.
If his wife were to discover his true colors, she would definitely kick him in a fit of anger.
"So, you've been hiding something from me again?"
Lin Yuesha nodded. Qi Heng is truly commendable.
Although the romantic misunderstanding was a misunderstanding, the fact that the injury was concealed cannot be ignored.
The couple had agreed to be honest with each other, and she was the only one who kept her promise.
"My wife, I was wrong!"
Qi Heng carefully apologized, explaining that the incident had indeed happened suddenly and the injuries were not serious, which was why he hadn't mentioned it and didn't want to delay his trip.
Qi Heng's attitude in admitting his mistake was good and he did it quickly, which made Lin Yuesha even angrier. Since he knew it was wrong, he knowingly committed the crime, so his crime was compounded!
