After leaving Qingyun Sect, Qingqiu did not follow Jing Zhe back, but instead stood outside the grove where they had just fought.
"Third sister, why aren't we leaving?"
Jing Zhe also stopped, looked at Qing Qiu, and asked curiously.
Qingqiu turned around and said with a smile, "Zhe'er, I won't go back with you tonight. Let your fourth and seventh sisters keep you company... no, I should say you keep them company!"
"..."
Seeing Jing Zhe's bewildered expression, Qing Qiu's gaze swept over the direction where the battle had just taken place, and she seemed to recall some embarrassing scenes, her face instantly turning red.
"Zhe'er, I want to be with you, forever, never to be apart for even a moment. But I also know that it's not possible right now. Once you're done with this, and you've killed the Prince of Jin, and our Jing family has avenged itself, you won't be so busy anymore. Then, I'll be by your side, with you every day!"
Hearing Qingqiu say these words with such deep affection, Jing Zhe said nothing, but simply held her hand tightly.
Then, Qingqiu continued, "Actually, it's not just me. Fourth Sister and Seventh Sister also want to be with you, just like when we were little we all fought over you. It's just that we're older now and more sensible, so we don't act like we did when we were little..."
At this point, Qingqiu felt that no matter how sensible they were, the situation of fighting over Jing Zhe would definitely happen again in the future, and it might even happen frequently, since there were too many of them.
Thinking about this, she laughed at herself.
"And this time when we came out, your fourth sister and seventh sister didn't say anything, and the two of us even... So I'm already very satisfied. Tonight I won't argue with them either. You should spend some time with them. Anyway, compared to them, I should be the most content."
Qingqiu had thought things through quite thoroughly. Pei Yunxi and Lin Wan'er definitely wouldn't be as intimate with Jing Zhe as they had been just now, because she knew Pei Yunxi was menstruating, and Lin Wan'er wasn't that bold. Besides, with the two of them looking at each other, how could they be so shameless? So she had already won the battle.
Jing Zhe gave a wry smile: "Third Sister, you'll just have to come back with me. Do you think that if you don't come back, I'll be able to sleep with Fourth Sister and Seventh Sister? Seventh Sister just scolded me last night!"
Qingqiu smiled and shook her head: "You don't know your seventh sister as well as I do. Don't worry, if you go over tonight, she definitely won't want to kick you out of bed."
What if we rush?
"What if we're in a rush..."
Qingqiu thought for a moment and said, "If she really leaves, then come to Qingyun Sect to find me! However... the disciples in the sect rest early at night, so you can't be too loud, lest you disturb everyone."
Jing Zhe said excitedly, "Don't worry, Third Sister, I'll definitely come and go secretly!"
If he were to come looking for Qingqiu at night, he would definitely have to sneak in secretly. Otherwise, if Master Mingji and the other disciples found out, they would definitely arrange a separate room for Jingzhe. With someone watching, how could he be intimate with Qingqiu?
Qingqiu actually had the same idea, but she was too embarrassed to say it outright. When Jingzhe blurted it out, Qingqiu blushed again.
At this moment, Jing Zhe hoped that Lin Wan'er would kick him out of the room just like she did last night. After all, what benefits were there in sleeping with the two of them other than being able to satisfy his urges to touch and look at them?
Moreover, judging from Lin Wan'er's attitude last night, Jing Zhe was scared. He probably couldn't even satisfy his urge to touch her. How could it be as comfortable as being with Qing Qiu?
"Third sister, just you wait! Seventh sister will definitely kick me out tonight, and then I'll come looking for you!"
Qingqiu smiled and nodded, then carefully straightened Jing Zhe's clothes and instructed him, "Zhe'er, the reason I said I wanted to go to Ruzhou with you was firstly because I wanted to see the Prince of Jin killed to avenge our parents, and secondly because I was really worried about you. Although my current cultivation level is not as high as yours, I am still worried."
Jing Zhe chuckled and patted Qingqiu's hand: "Third Sister, why are you acting like we're parting ways today? I have to come back tonight!"
Jing Zhe patted his chest confidently.
Qingqiu chuckled softly, "Third sister is just being cautious, in case you can't come. If you do come, I'll just say it again, so don't find it annoying!"
"Hehe, how could I be annoyed by what Third Sister is saying? I like her more than I can handle!"
"loquacious!"
Qingqiu pressed Jing Zhe's forehead and said, "I'll say it again, Zhe'er, you must be careful in everything. If your seventh sister really keeps you here tonight, then I won't go over tomorrow morning, so as not to delay Zhe'er's schedule any further."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely come tonight! Third Sister, stop talking, why are you making it sound like we're facing life and death..."
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey...bad luck!"
Before she could finish speaking, Qingqiu reached out and covered Jingzhe's mouth, saying "Pah!" several times. It seems that no matter how aloof the fairy was in front of outsiders, she still retained her most innocent side when facing Jingzhe.
Afterwards, Qingqiu gave a few more instructions, and then the two parted ways outside the grove. Under Qingqiu's watchful gaze, Jing Zhe flew towards Jiangling City.
"Silly Zhe'er, I know your seventh sister better than you do now. How could she bear to send you away again? After today's parting, who knows when we'll meet again..."
Standing in the setting sun, Qingqiu looked into the distance and spoke slowly.
...
Jing Zhe had already flown far away and was unaware of Qing Qiu's thoughts.
Before long, he returned to Jiangling City. He originally intended to go straight back to the Lin family, but when he passed by the government office, he suddenly remembered the three people who were imprisoned in the same cell, so he turned back.
"President Jing is here!"
The constables in the yamen now treat Jing Zhe like their own father, bowing and scraping with utmost respect.
Jing Zhe nodded and asked, "How are Xu Wenchang and the other two doing today? They didn't fight again, did they?"
Upon hearing this, the constable's face lit up with excitement: "Chief Jing, don't even mention it! Where did the fighting stop? It's even more brutal than before!"
"Oh? What happened? Xu Wenchang is so audacious, daring to beat people like that? Isn't he afraid of killing those two and then being charged with intentional homicide? I'll execute him on the spot?"
Jing Zhe also became interested and said with a smile.
After hearing this, the constable looked embarrassed and said, "Chief Jing, although the beating was fierce this time, it wasn't Xu Tai... Wen Chang who was beating others fiercely, but rather he was being beaten fiercely! Chief Jing, please go and take a look. If the three of them aren't separated soon, I'm worried that Xu Wen Chang will be beaten to death by those two!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhe chuckled. How could the battle situation have turned around so quickly in just one day? Moreover, compared to the other two, Prefect Xu was younger and stronger. Logically, he shouldn't have been beaten so badly by them.
