Chapter Ninety-Eight: Raising Men Together?



But at least there are times when he looks good.

However, when they were in Yushui City some time ago, Sang San Niang had hardly ever seen Dongfang Bubai's expression change from gloomy to sunny.

In addition, there were Chu Qinghe and Yaoyue in the courtyard at that time.

It's obvious that before Dongfang Bubai left, he lived in the same courtyard with Yaoyue and Chu Qinghe.

After some mental contemplation, Sang San Niang came to a conclusion.

"So, all this time, the sect leader was competing with Yaoyue of the Yihua Palace for a man?"

Upon hearing this conclusion, Sang San Niang couldn't help but gasp.

Originally, Sang San Niang thought that Dongfang Bubai was lusting after Chu Qinghe's beauty.

He even frequently took money from himself and other disciples of the Sun Moon Cult to support Chu Qinghe.

Unexpectedly, besides Dongfang Bubai, there was also Yaoyue who raised Chu Qinghe.

This news is absolutely explosive.

Who are Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue?

One of the three most outstanding young women in the Ming Dynasty.

And now, these two high and mighty people are actually vying for the same man.

"If this news gets out... well, I'll probably die very soon."

However, before Sang San Niang's thoughts could continue to wander, reason pulled her back to reality.

Thinking of Dongfang Bubai's methods and the identity of the person in front of her, Sang San Niang's eyelids twitched.

The instinct for survival makes you quickly gather your thoughts and try to stop thinking about it.

As an elder of the Sun Moon Sect, Sang San Niang naturally knew that some things were better left unknown.

Especially when it involves two ruthless individuals, Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue.

Knowing too much can cost you your life.

Immediately, Sang San Niang, having gathered her thoughts, also headed away into the distance.

The items have been delivered, but we still need to return to the Sun Moon Cult to restore our sight.

Thinking about the several more days of travel ahead, Sang San Niang sighed again.

Life is tough, and navigating the world is difficult!

After Sang San Niang left, in Chu Qinghe's courtyard, almost the moment Chu Qinghe opened the red cloth, he immediately recognized the contents of the package.

As his thoughts raced, Chu Qinghe could easily guess Dongfang Bubai's intention in sending the storybook back.

Immediately, Chu Qinghe's expression became strange, unsure whether to find it amusing or speechless.

"This woman is mischievous!"

At the same time, Qu Feiyan, who was standing behind Chu Qinghe, also recognized the items in the package.

She exclaimed with delight, "Isn't this the manuscript of Young Master's first novel, 'The Overbearing Palace Master's Little Darling Wife'? Sister Dongfang actually sent it back?"

The moment Qu Feiyan uttered her voice, Yaoyue recognized the manuscripts as well.

"Manuscript? What manuscript?"

Upon hearing Qu Feiyan's voice, Xiao Zhao, who was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, also came over.

When Xiao Zhao focused her gaze on the neatly stacked manuscripts in Chu Qinghe's hands, her eyes lit up.

Then, joy appeared on the faces of all three women.

After all, they had only read half of the storybook. Not to mention the two little girls, even Yaoyue would occasionally think of the manuscript and wonder about the plot that followed.

But Chu Qinghe said that even if it were rewritten, the later content would likely be changed, rather than remaining the same.

Naturally, the girls had no choice.

But now that Dongfang Bubai has actually returned the manuscript, the three women are naturally overjoyed.

Seeing the expressions on the three women's faces, Chu Qinghe casually placed the manuscript on the table.

Upon seeing this, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao looked at Yaoyue.

Under the watchful eyes of the two women, Yaoyue casually raised her hand and reached for the manuscript on the table.

However, just as Yaoyue's hand was about to touch the manuscript, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and she remembered the last part of the story that Chu Qinghe had mentioned earlier.

The thought of the ending of the story, in which both the male and female protagonists died, caused Yaoyue's hand to freeze in mid-air.

Seeing Yaoyue pause, Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan, whose faces were still full of excitement and anticipation, were stunned for a moment and looked at Yaoyue with puzzlement.

But when their gazes fell on Yaoyue's face, and they saw that Yaoyue was clearly hesitant, the two women realized what was going on.

Suddenly, he understood Yaoyue's hesitation and Dongfang Bubai's sinister intentions.

In contrast, when Yaoyue's gaze fell on the manuscript of the storybook on the table, her eyes narrowed, and a cold look kept passing between them.

...

night

After emerging from the pool, the three women were enveloped in a delightful fragrance.

Unlike before, Yaoyue, Xiaozhao, and Qu Feiyan did not accompany Chu Qinghe to play mahjong, sing songs, or play games as usual.

Instead, they all gathered around the stone table, their eyes fixed on the manuscript placed on the red cloth.

After a long silence, Qu Feiyan finally spoke with a conflicted expression: "What should we do? Should we read this storybook or not?"

See? After learning that the ending was not only a tragedy, but so tragic that both the male and female protagonists died, Qu Feiyan worried that she would become depressed for several days after watching it.

They decided not to watch it! But the girls had all watched the first half, and they were very curious about what happened later, even why the male and female leads died.

It felt like there was a kitten scratching inside my heart, causing waves of itchiness.

This conflicted feeling left the three women, who had just been taking a bath, feeling somewhat suffocated.

Faced with Qu Feiyan's words, Xiao Zhao rested her chin on her hand, looking distressed, and did not respond.

Finally, after taking a deep breath, Yaoyue bravely reached out and picked up the manuscript from the table.

With Yaoyue taking the lead, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao exchanged a glance and then stopped hesitating.

Before long, the three women each held a manuscript and began to read it.

On the contrary, Chu Qinghe was the only one left out.

Seeing the three women's behavior, Qinghe decisively got up and went into the room to rest early.

Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is human nature.
