Chapter 129 How did you feel just now, with your heroic posture?
"Hold his hand," A-Jiu said in a low, hoarse voice, her breathing growing heavier, almost pleading, "Guan Ye, help me..."
Ah Jiu's chest rose and fell like the deep sea during a thunderstorm. Guan Ye did as she was told. Her heart was pounding so fast, so big, that it could barely contain it. Ah Jiu said, "He wants..." Want... does he want it this way? If so... how does he want it?
As Guan Ye's thoughts deepened, she twitched uncontrollably. A-Jiu whispered, guiding her, "Guan Ye, just like this... just like this..."
"That's it...?" Guan Ye followed A Jiu's instructions and moved slowly. A Jiu became increasingly agitated, and the low growls in her throat grew more and more intense. Guan Ye panicked and lost her rhythm. A Jiu met Guan Ye's movements with increasing urgency, feeling as if something was about to burst forth. Guan Ye was so frightened that she was about to let go, but A Jiu seemed to have anticipated her intention and tightened her grip on her hand. The storm was coming, the tide was surging, and it was already unstoppable.
"Guan Ye... Guan Ye..." The steadfast Ajiu suddenly became a helpless child, calling Guan Ye's name again and again, "Don't leave me... ah, ah..."
Guan Ye opened her palms with difficulty. She seemed to understand what she had just been doing. Before she could come to her senses, A Jiu scooped up her limp body, held her fingers tightly, pressed them to the top of her head, and kissed her open lips deeply. In an instant, he was full of vigor again.
The sky was barely light, and the sunlight streamed through the window onto the warm, spring-like bedding. Guan Ye leaned against A Jiu's arm, opening her hands and then slowly clenching them. She felt as if she had just accomplished something great, something only she and A Jiu could know. They still had even bigger things to do, but they would accomplish them someday.
"A-Jiu." Guan Ye rolled over and pressed her face against his chest, twirling a strand of hair around the scar on his brow bone. "How did you feel just now?"
"What? What...what feeling?" Ajiu pretended to be stupid.
"Well..." Guan Ye rested her chin on her hand, her cheeks redder than ripe fruit, "How did you feel when that came out?"
Shameless! How could you even ask that? Ajiu gently pinched Guan Ye's nose, squinting as she savored the moment, and said, "This feeling, only men can understand. You'll never understand it in your entire life."
Guan Ye was so annoyed that she tickled his armpits. "Tell me, whether I understand or not, just tell me."
Ajiu dodged her bared teeth and claws, laughing heartily, "Yeah... it feels like it would be worth dying for."
"Pah, pah, pah!" Guan Ye slapped his mouth shut. "What do you mean by 'die'? Nobody will die."
Ah Jiu grabbed her hand and kissed it hard. "No one will die, everyone will live well, that's what I promised you. And also..." Ah Jiu coughed, his dark eyes glancing down at his body, "If you cause any more trouble, he will never forgive you."
Guan Ye suddenly stiffened and didn't move. Ajiu was amused by her and chuckled softly again.
Pushing open the door to the quiet room, Ajiu stretched comfortably, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease. As soon as she lifted her feet, she couldn't help but turn around and look into the room. Their eyes met, and their affection was unspoken.
"Ah...Ah Jiu?"
Ajiu froze. The voice was hesitant and tense. Who else could it be but Ji Fang? Guan Ye heard this and thought to herself that something was wrong. Before Ajiu could quietly return to the east wing, Ji Fang had sneaked in.
“A-Jiu.” Ji Fang, with his sharp ears and eyes, saw clearly that A-Jiu had come out of Guan Ye’s room, and there was that gluttonous look on his face… They were both hot-blooded young men. Ji Fang was timid, but not stupid. “A-Jiu… how could you…” Ji Fang said, walking forward and tilting his head to look behind A-Jiu. Seeing Guan Ye’s face flushed red, Ji Fang understood even more. He hurriedly turned around in a panic, slipping and almost falling flat on his face. “I…” Ji Fang covered his eyes. “I didn’t see anything… A-Jiu, we’re brothers, I won’t say anything.”
Ajiu approached Ji Fang without changing her expression. The moment her hand touched his shoulder, Ji Fang jumped up in fright, shrinking out from under Ajiu's armpit. Suddenly, he saw Guan Yan preparing to close the door inside the room. Ji Fang's handsome face turned bright red. Turning around, he saw Ajiu's dark eyes scanning him intently. Ji Fang held up two fingers and said, "Could it be... that you want me to gouge out my own eyes?"
"Poke your head, my foot." Ajiu pressed down on Ji Fang's hand, glanced at the half-open door of the quiet room, and whispered, "Girls are shy. No matter what you see, only heaven, earth, you, Guan Ye and I know, how about that?"
嵇方点头如捣葱，两指直指苍穹，“我发誓，绝不会说出去的，一个字都不会。”落下手指，嵇方悄悄又掠看过静室，舔了舔干燥的唇，吞吐着想说又不大敢说，“阿九…我问出来你可别揍我，你知道的…我又打不过你…你和关靥…”嵇方鼓足勇气，“好了？”
"Nonsense." Ajiu said, amused and annoyed. "Guan Ye and I are doing great."
"No, no." Ji Fang straightened his tongue, clenching his fists to encourage himself, "I meant...you two..." Ji Fang's face turned bright red, and he lowered his voice to the lowest possible level, "You two did that?"
Ajiu raised her fist, startling Ji Fang so much that he slid far away. "What do you mean, 'this' and 'that'? I've already said that girls are shy, why are you still saying that?"
Ji Fang clasped his hands above his head and said, "I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore. Anyone who says another word is a coward."
"—Which one is the grandson?" Having an audience with the Emperor today, Feng Shisan hadn't slept soundly all night. He was thinking of getting up to practice his swordsmanship as soon as it was light, but when he opened his eyes, the two people in the room were nowhere to be seen. Had they both gone to practice their swordsmanship early? Seeing Ji Fang and A Jiu whispering to each other outside the quiet room, Feng Shisan was curious about what they were talking about. "What are you two doing huddled outside Guan Ye's room?"
Feng Shisan strode closer, sword in hand. Ajiu punched Ji Fang in the shoulder, making Ji Fang wince in pain. "No...nothing much. I couldn't sleep, so I got up early. I was worried that Guan Ye might oversleep...Pah, no, it's not Ajiu, I was worried that Guan Ye might oversleep. Luckily...Guan Ye got up early."
Huh? Feng Shisan may be a bit simple-minded, but he's not a complete idiot. He leaped up and saw that Guan Ye's door was tightly shut. How did Ji Fang know she was up early? Could it be...? Feng Shisan roared and pointed his sword at Ji Fang, "You, Ji Fang, you've got some nerve! You came out of Guan Ye's room?"
"I didn't, I didn't." Ji Fang waved his hands. "Thirteenth Young Master, please stop asking. If you ask any more, you'll kill me..." As soon as the words left his mouth, Ji Fang regretted it. Why did asking any more questions have to lead to my death? Now, I'm really going to die.
Feng Shisan blinked his large eyes and lowered his sword, his gaze sweeping over Ajiu from head to toe. Early morning sword practice? No, Ajiu's hands were empty, she hadn't brought a sword. What shady business was she plotting with Ji Fang? No, Ji Fang was timid; conspiring with him was less desirable than consulting Xiao Ma. And Ajiu outside Guan Ye's house…
"I understand!" Feng Shisan raised his sword high and pointed it at Ji Fang. "Ajiu, go wake Guan Ye up. You arrived later, so Ajiu will tell you that Guan Ye is already up. Yes, that's it!" Feng Shisan nodded affirmatively, clearly very impressed with himself.
Ji Fang breathed a sigh of relief and gave Feng Shisan a thumbs up, "Yes, that's it. Young Master Shisan is indeed unparalleled in wisdom and courage."
"Guan Ye," Feng Shisan called out to the quiet room, "come out quickly, we're waiting for you to present the sword today."
The door opened, and Guan Ye, now dressed in a brand-new red outfit, looked dashing. Pointing at Feng Shisan's nose, she immediately started yelling, "Shout again! Who are you yelling at? Shout again and see how your grandma Guan deals with you!"
Feng Shisan was so frightened by Guan Ye that he retreated, but he still remained defiant. "I'm calling for you! Even if I, Young Master Shisan, am terrified of A-Jiu's sword, do you think I'm afraid of your mouth, Guan Ye? A-Jiu, A-Jiu?" Feng Shisan turned to look for A-Jiu, but A-Jiu seemed not to hear him and went straight to the east wing without turning back.
"Guan Ye..." Seeing the look of hatred in Guan Ye's eyes, which seemed to want to devour him, Feng Shisan panicked and turned to chase after Ajiu. "A good man doesn't fight with a woman. I'm scared of you, aren't I? Ajiu, wait for me!"
In the blink of an eye, only Ji Fang remained standing in the huge courtyard. Ji Fang sniffed, clasped his hands, and bowed to Guan Ye. Guan Ye, not understanding why, returned the bow in the same manner. As soon as she raised her head, Ji Fang had already disappeared in a flash.
In the east wing, recognizing A-Jiu's footsteps, someone glanced at her while tidying up their pony. "You're back."
"Hmm." Ah Jiu had barely responded when she sensed something was amiss. Words spoken are words spoken, so Ah Jiu pretended to be nonchalant, pulled out her dark green brocade robe with knife patterns, dusted it off, and prepared to change.
Xiao Ma tightened his forehead ribbon, leaned back and peered at A Jiu's face. A Jiu didn't chase him away, and calmly smoothed the wrinkles on her clothes. Xiao Ma looked at her closely again and again, then pouted and said, "It doesn't seem any different. It's boring."
“What’s wrong with A-Jiu?” Feng Shisan slammed the door open, scattering snowflakes all over the floor. “What’s wrong with everyone today? They’re all acting very strangely.”
Xiao Ma darted in front of Feng Shisan. "Young Master Shisan, tell me, who else is acting strangely? Let me guess..." Xiao Ma chuckled mischievously, "Is it Guan Ye?"
"Hey." Feng Shisan became interested. "How did you know?"
Xiao Ma swept his fingers across the room. "I'm the smartest person in this house. Nothing can escape my eyes. Ah Jiu sneaked out in the middle of the night. Who else among you knew?"
Lou Cangyu, who was half asleep in bed, suddenly sat up, his sleepy eyes peeking out from between them. "Xiao Ma, you always make a mountain out of a molehill. Maybe... Ajiu was thirsty and went to the backyard to get a drink?"
“Yeah,” Feng Shisan pushed Xiao Ma aside and chimed in, “It could also be from getting up in the middle of the night.”
Xiao Ma darted over to A Jiu in a few steps. Seeing that he remained silent, he clicked his tongue and said, "You're all helping A Jiu. If you don't want to know, then I won't say anything."
Ji Fang forced an awkward laugh, "There's nothing worth knowing, so it's better not to say."
“Ji Fang knows too.” Xiao Ma sighed deliberately. “If you don’t want to know, then forget it.”
Ji Fang knew? He himself didn't know? Feng Shisan opened his mouth but then fell silent, looking at Lou Cangyu for help, his eyes almost popping out. Lou Cangyu didn't look at him, yawned and climbed off the bed, "No need for Xiao Ma to say it, actually I know too."
Lou Cangyu knew too? How could he tolerate this? Feng Shisan turned around and glared at Ji Fang, sparks flying from his eyes, which made Ji Fang tremble. "I was thirsty early this morning and went to the backyard to get a drink of water when I bumped into them. I just found out, just now!" Ji Fang pointed two fingers to the sky as if he wanted to curse and swear, "It really was just now, right after you."
Everyone knew about what happened so close together, but how could he not know? Feng Shisan wished he could stab himself.
"Hahahaha." Xiao Ma pointed at Ji Fang and burst into laughter. "Thank you, Ji Fang. It seems I was right."
Ji Fang blinked, but before he could speak, Lou Cangyu had already reacted, bending over and laughing so hard he could barely breathe. Xiao Ma pressed down on Lou Cangyu's back, and the two looked at each other, laughing so hard they couldn't speak.
