Chapter 119: This blow was too much for Yinzhen...
This blow was too great for Yinzhen. That night he didn't even have the mind to have children. He just hugged his wife quietly.
Qi Buchen didn't even know whether he slept a wink that night.
In view of this, the next day, both of them woke up but did not get up. They lay there until Qi Buchen felt hungry.
"Can we get up and eat something?" Qi Buchen rubbed his head against Yinzhen's chest.
Yinzhen took a long time to respond: "Okay."
He was unusually quiet while eating, chewing but his mind was wandering somewhere.
Qi Buchen could only try his best to find him something to do: "Last time I said I wanted to open a new store selling pet toys and clothes. Now the design drawings are almost ready. Can you help me take a look?"
Yinzhen likes to design things. She discovered this after adopting puppies. The doghouses and clothes of her two Shih Tzus were all designed by Yinzhen. She also got the inspiration to open this store from Yinzhen.
Yinzhen was a little slow to agree: "Okay."
Pulling people to the small study to look at the design drawings, Qi Buchen chattered for a long time before getting a single word in response. She was not discouraged, as any amount of attention she could get was a plus.
After talking so much, Yinzhen finally became a little interested and occasionally gave some suggestions for revision.
Whenever this happened, Qi Buchen would exclaim in exaggerated admiration: "Wow! You're so amazing! How did you come up with that? This change is simply amazing, so high-end, classy, elegant, luxurious and stylish! Oh, why didn't I think of that? I'm so vulgar, really, why am I so vulgar?"
"Husband, you won't dislike me, will you?" She made a particularly dramatic and exaggerated expression, looking at Yinzhen with tears in her eyes.
Yinzhen finally showed his first smile of the day, although it was very shallow, but Qi Buchen seemed to see the light.
But Yinzhen smiled slightly and then withdrew it, and then said with a blank expression: "I hate it, I hate it so much."
Qi Buchen suddenly said: "Hmm~ How could you do this~ Do you not love me anymore? I know that men don't cherish what they have~"
"Pfft." Yinzhen almost choked and laughed silently, "Where did you learn these weird words from?"
Qi Buchen was pleased and said with a chuckle, "It's a good Western book. Would you like to take a look?"
Yinzhen also read Western books, but most of them were application books, and he rarely read novels.
"What's so good about that?" Yinzhen didn't understand Fu Jin's love of reading storybooks. In his pragmatic view, those things were meaningless and useless. "You should read less. Reading too much can easily change your temperament."
From this sentence, we can see that Yinzhen was still deeply influenced by feudal ideas.
Qi Buchen didn't want to argue with him about this. Anyway, she couldn't stop him from looking at her. There was no need to quarrel over such a trivial matter and hurt their relationship.
"Yeah, okay." She agreed perfunctorily and asked him to continue looking at the design and give his suggestions.
Just as Yinzhen's mood was gradually improving, an uninvited guest came to the mansion.
Prince Cheng Yinzhi.
Qi Buchen felt that he had come with ill intentions and had a premonition that all his efforts for most of the day would be wasted, but he had no choice but to let Yinzhen go to see him.
Her hunch proved to be correct.
Qi Buchen had been asking people to pay attention to the movements in the front hall. Not long after, a servant came to report that Yinzhi had left with a smile on his face, but Yinzhen had entered the study with a gloomy face and closed the door tightly.
This is so similar to yesterday.
Qi Buchen hurried over and tried to push the door, but found that it was locked from the inside.
Wow, the reaction is even bigger than yesterday.
"Master, it's me." Qi Buchen knocked on the door and called out tentatively.
The room was silent, as if her voice was swallowed up by something halfway and did not reach inside.
Qi Buchen walked back and forth in front of the door twice, waved his hand to drive the servants away, and knocked on the door again, saying, "Yinzhen, open the door. Can we work together to find a solution for this problem?"
Still silent.
Qi Buchen looked around, thought for a while, then turned and walked to both sides.
Yinzhen was immersed in his own world, oblivious to the outside world. The eight words Yinzhi had spoken kept echoing in his mind. The first time they echoed, he felt as if his body had been run over by a millstone. The second time, he felt as if thousands of red-hot needles were piercing his body. The third time, he felt as if he were being burned to ashes by a raging fire.
The more he thought about it, the more painful it became, but he continued to make the sound in a self-torturing manner.
His hands and feet started shaking... He felt like he had fallen into an ice river.
"thump."
Hmm, did someone fall down too? Yinzhen thought dazedly.
"ah!"
This voice sounds so familiar... No, it's Fu Jin!
Yinzhen finally came to his senses and reflexively looked towards the place where the sound came from. There was a person sitting there, curled up in pain.
He could tell it was Fu Jin's figure without looking closely. Without having time to wonder why Fu Jin was there, his body was faster than his brain and he jumped to Fu Jin's side in three or two steps.
"What's wrong? Where does it hurt?" Yinzhen asked anxiously. He rubbed his hands a few times but didn't know where to start.
Qi Buchen had endured the most painful blow, and after recovering, he pinched Yinzhen's trembling hand and said with a gasp, "It's okay, just take a break."
Yinzhen then dared to touch her: "Where did you fall? How could you fall? Where are those dog slaves!"
Qi Buchen didn't want to talk for the time being and pointed to the window.
Yinzhen looked up and saw that the window was wide open, and on one side of the fan blade, a hairpin was stuck in it and was about to fall. He immediately realized that Fu Jin had climbed through the window from the outside and her hairpin was stuck without her noticing, so she fell down.
"You're getting more and more daring. You even dare to climb through the window!" Yinzhen scolded irritably, "What are doors for? Can't you just come in through the door?"
Qi Buchen was still in pain, and when he heard his tone, he immediately felt aggrieved: "If the door hadn't been locked from the inside, and you hadn't responded when I called you, and I was worried that something might have happened to you, would I have climbed through the window?"
"Forget it." Qi Buchen pushed him away and was about to stand up by himself, "Blame me for being sentimental!"
Yinzhen was squatting at first, but she pushed him onto his butt without warning. It didn't hurt, but he was a little dazed.
Only then did he remember that he had locked the door, and he also remembered that when he was immersed in pain just now, there seemed to be a faint sound coming from outside the door.
Thinking of everything, Yinzhen suddenly felt guilty and ashamed. He looked at Fu Jin who was already limping towards the door. He dared not hesitate any longer. He got up and took two steps to catch up with Fu Jin who was unable to move. He pulled her back and said awkwardly, "Isn't it painful? Don't move for now."
"None of your business." Qi Buchen shook off his hand, took a step forward and took a breath.
Yinzhen sighed, leaned over and hugged the man: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Qi Buchen still felt aggrieved: "Hmph!" But he let him hold her without moving.
"Does your butt hurt? Let me rub it for you." Yinzhen said as he was about to take action.
Qi Buchen stretched out his hand and twisted a piece of flesh on his waist: "Rogue!"
Yinzhen gasped and frowned, "Let go!"
"Hmph!" Qi Buchen let go of his hand.
"You really are..." Yinzhen couldn't say it helplessly, and could only say, "Can you sit down? Go sit on the couch?" Then he let go of the person, held Qi Buchen's arm and was about to take her to the couch.
Qi Buchen pouted: "Shouldn't you carry me over at this time?"
Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, then bent down resignedly: "Okay, carry him over."
Qi Buchen happily put his arms around his neck. Yinzhen put one hand around his waist and the other on his knee. He exerted force from his waist, and Qi Buchen's feet lifted half a foot off the ground and then fell back down.
The whole world is quiet.
Qi Buchen seemed to hear the caw of crows flying outside. She loosened her hand, pushed Yinzhen, who was still bent over, and cleared her throat, saying, "Well, I don't feel any pain anymore. I can walk on my own."
Before she could take a step, she was hooked back. She couldn't see Yinzhen's expression, but she could hear his angry voice: "Hold me tight."
Qi Buchen stuck out his tongue. It was over. This guy’s self-esteem was hurt. She should just be obedient.
This time, Yinzhen finally picked her up steadily. Realizing that he was moving too slowly, Qi Buchen buried her face in his neck, not daring to look at his face which might be flushed red at this moment.
You still have to give men some face.
Finally putting the person on the couch, Yinzhen couldn't control himself and breathed heavily.
Yinzhen was both embarrassed and annoyed!
Qi Buchen couldn't pretend he didn't hear it, and he was also afraid he would suffocate himself to death, so he could only help him breathe while telling lies: "I'm sorry, I haven't been moving much lately and eating a lot, so I've gained a lot of weight. I'll increase my exercise tomorrow."
Yinzhen panted for a while in self-abandonment, and finally calmed down. He put his arm around Fu Jin's waist and squeezed it, saying unhappily, "Am I the kind of person who deceives himself? Just wait, I'll throw you up with one hand from now on."
He spoke in a domineering manner, but unfortunately, his self-proclaimed attitude exposed his guilty conscience.
Qi Buchen smiled secretly, then said sweetly: "Okay, I'll wait for you~"
"Hmph." Yinzhen didn't say anything, but his hands continued to pinch her waist.
Qi Buchen sat quietly with him for a while, then asked, "What did Third Brother say?"
The temperature around Yinzhen dropped rapidly, and his hands stopped kneading the meat.
Qi Buchen stretched out his hand and climbed up his neck, straightened up, and looked him in the eye without allowing him to escape: "Tell me, okay?"
Yinzhen lowered his eyelids and spoke after a long pause, "The Emperor summoned Yisan'a and the others today to make a report. He mentioned me and said I was 'frivolous and moody.'"
Qi Buchen: ...
Sorry, she wants to scold Kangxi for ten minutes!
Damn it! Yinzhen is only 21 this year. At this age, he should be full of vigor and passion! Why does he need to be so steady and serious? And he's also moody. How can a 20-year-old boy be called a teenager if he doesn't have mood swings? Does he have to hide his emotions? What a bullshit!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She was even angrier because she couldn't say these words. After all, Kangxi was the emperor. The emperor's words were imperial decrees and were absolutely correct.
Qi Buchen spat in his heart again, and then began to think about how to comfort Yinzhen.
