Chapter Thirty-Five: A Man's Heart, Like a Needle at the Bottom of the Sea



I'm even more confused now; this explanation is completely unconvincing.

But if I continue to pester him, it won't work. After all, he's a married man. If I insist on clinging to him, I'll probably be spitting in the face with everyone's scorn.

We need to come up with a foolproof plan. What I want is to stand beside him with dignity, not to follow him around like a shameless lapdog, wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

Besides, even if I were willing to beg for favors, they might not care.

As for men, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a stolen affair, and a stolen affair is not as good as one that cannot be stolen. If I shamelessly offer myself up, all that awaits me is endless humiliation or being ignored.

No, no, this road is blocked.

"If you're free now, you can think about it slowly here. I have other things to do, so I'll have to keep you company from now on."

I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I completely ignored Ji Ruchen. He glared at me fiercely and said he was leaving.

I was lost in thought, so I ignored him and let him go. Anyway, this was his place, and he couldn't go far.

I thought I'd go find him again once I'd figured things out, but unexpectedly, he ran back halfway there, hugged me, and then ran off.

They even called me an idiot. It's like a bolt from the blue, completely out of the blue.

After not seeing him for a while, how come this person has become just like that little brat Xiao Qing, unpredictable and moody?

Just a moment ago they were acting like they'd never speak to each other again, and now they're acting like this.

This man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; I just can't understand it.

Why should I even consider a foolproof plan? Maybe I should just swallow my pride and become a groveling lapdog.

No, no, I am a beautiful woman who is loved by everyone, admired by flowers, and possesses unparalleled beauty and charm. How could I do such shameless things?

That's something only ugly, unmarriageable people would do.

With my looks, I could find any man I wanted. Why would I insist on hanging myself on this crooked tree?

Perhaps I should think about it some more.

My stomach rumbled loudly, and I glanced at the sun; it seemed to be noon already. Time to eat.

Well, nothing is more important than my stomach, so I'll go eat first.

Judging from his hesitant manner, it wouldn't be difficult for him to get a free meal.

"Wait for me! I'll go back with you!" I called out to him desperately, but he had already disappeared.

Wow, that's really fast!

When I got back, they had already started eating. The food was plentiful, and I was drooling with hunger.

For some reason, all three of them developed blushing at the same time, and each of them looked like a big crab on the table.

This is really strange. Ji Ruchen has always had a blushing problem, as this person knows, but how come this troublemaker and Princess Anguo also have this disease?

And it seems to be even more serious than Ji Ruchen's case.

Could this disease be contagious? Should I consider eating somewhere else?

"Luo Qingyi, come back here!" I had only taken one step when I was so frightened by the stern shout of the troublemaker that I dared not understand anything more and obediently sat down to eat my rice.

The temperature inside was frighteningly high, and I tugged at my clothes uncomfortably.

In a flash, Ji Ruchen and Huoshui Di stood up at the same time and blocked my way.

It caused me to lose my balance and fall to the ground.

Can someone tell me what the hell this is all about? I was just feeling a bit hot and wanted to cool down, did it really have to be that one or two of them came over and pushed me?
