What I don't understand is why he didn't use the main entrance, but what I do understand is the word "纨绔" (wan ku, meaning a spoiled, dissolute young man).
What did he say back then?
He said, 'Miss Qin, I'm a playboy. What's so good about marrying me? If you marry me, I'll only neglect you, and who knows, I might bring back a bunch of concubines in a few days!'
Qin Xi subconsciously bit her lip and frowned as she thought about it.
Although Lu Huai is generally unreliable, he is still a man of his word. Whether it's a set of rules or something else, he will keep his word once he says so.
Therefore, he will probably keep his word to her.
He would ignore her when they had disagreements. He seemed to have managed to do that.
That leaves only the matter of taking a concubine.
When a concubine enters the household, she is required to meet the mistress of the house. He specifically asked her if she was free; could it be that he really intends to bring a concubine home?
No wonder he's been leaving early and returning late these past few days, even though he has no official position or rank. So that's why.
Given his lazy nature, the fact that he would bother to ask about it shows he values that concubine very much. If she refuses to see him, he'll probably be displeased.
Qin Xi bit her lip, trying to ignore the displeasure in her heart, but she couldn't suppress it no matter what she did.
Lu Huai had just finished peeling the lychees when he looked up and saw her biting her lip so hard it had turned white. Startled, he quickly reached out and pried open her teeth, placing his fingers between them. "What are you doing?"
His hands had just peeled a lychee, carrying the cool air and the sweet fragrance of the lychee. The aroma filled his mouth, and Qin Qi swallowed, instinctively sticking out his little tongue to gently lick it.
Lu Huai's eyes darkened, and he reflexively withdrew his hand. However, before the fire in his lower abdomen could ignite, he heard her speak in a frustrated tone.
"What's her name?"
Lu Huai: "???"
He frowned. "Did you get drunk from eating lychees? Whose name is that?"
Qin Qi pouted, "Stop pretending, I know everything. I'm not going to do anything to her."
Lu Huai was dumbfounded. What was this woman saying? What was she pretending for? What was she doing? What did she know that he didn't?
"Her?" Seeing his stunned expression, Qin Qi felt even more annoyed and spoke in a harsh tone, "I know everything. I was just asking for her name so I could address her when I meet her. You don't need to be so defensive."
"...What are you talking about?" Lu Huai thought it was absurd. Was she having a seizure today?
He actually wanted to keep it from me!
Qin Xi gritted her teeth, "I know you're seeing someone else and want to bring her into the family. I didn't object, I just asked for her name, and you didn't even dare let me know!"
"Who?" Lu Huai picked at his ear, wondering if he had misheard. "Who did you just say?"
Qin Xi: "Your concubine!"
Lu Huai: "???"
This world is unbelievable. Last year, he unknowingly acquired a fiancée, and now he's even worried about having a concubine!
Lu Huai had a slight headache. "Where did I get a concubine? You must have mistaken me for someone else."
"Didn't you say yourself that you had something to do today?" Qin Xi said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Lu Huai suddenly realized that the little girl was probably overthinking things again. He raised an eyebrow. "That's exactly what I said."
You still dare to admit it!
Qin Qi retorted angrily, "That's it! You said you had something to do, so you're obviously going to take a concubine!"
"Pfft..." Lu Huai laughed, but the next moment he received a displeased look from Qin Qi, and he tried hard to suppress the smile on his lips.
