Chapter 56: Having an affair with Lu and Li, and catching them in the act.
Overjoyed at the unexpected reunion, Lu Youchuan was almost overwhelmed by her calling him "brother-in-law." He gripped her wrist even tighter and glanced at the young man behind her, their hostility undisguised.
"But all I want to do is marry you." Lu Youchuan looked at Qin Song tenderly.
"Don't even think about it!"
Li Yu's body slammed into Qin Song's left shoulder, a reaction that suggested she wanted to kill her mortal enemy.
Qin Song shifted slightly, using her entire body to block Li Yu, and then pulled out her unharmed hand to cover Lu Youchuan's mouth: "My husband is here, don't talk nonsense."
The long-lost fragrance of a young girl and the touch of her delicate skin made Lu Youchuan's eyes tremble, but he couldn't shake the disappointment in his eyes.
Lu Youchuan gently removed her hand and kissed her palm without regard for anyone else: "It's not like he hasn't seen us make love before."
?
Qin Song's eyes widened. What did he mean? Did he know Li Yu was outside the post station last time?
"Shut up!" Before Qin Song could react, Li Yu leaned forward, abruptly pulled Qin Song's hand away, and glared fiercely at Lu Youchuan.
His wrist was strong, and he intended to pull her closer to him, but he accidentally aggravated Qin Song's injury.
"Ouch, that hurts." Qin Song groaned softly. The two people holding her hands on either side tensed up and immediately moved closer.
Lu Youchuan was both suspicious and anxious: "Are you injured?"
Li Yu was both flustered and angry: "Did I hurt you?"
The conversation between the three not only broadened the horizons of the waiter in front of him, but was also overheard by the shopkeeper behind the door, almost causing his ears to explode.
The shopkeeper with the goatee put down his pen, walked around the counter, and went outside.
He couldn't miss such an exciting scene.
"The three of you are looking for a room?" The innkeeper introduced himself briefly, wearing a polite smile. "However, there's only one room left. Who will be staying there?"
The three men stared blankly at the innkeeper, remaining silent for a moment. The innkeeper secretly rejoiced: if all three stayed inside, they might start fighting; if they did, they'd fight outside.
Let's see how this woman chooses: will she choose the seemingly easy-going cuckolded husband, or the arrogant and shameless brother-in-law? No matter what she chooses, there will be a good show to watch.
Given that he has been running the hotel for the boss for over twenty years, it's quite an eye-opening experience for him to witness such a remarkable relationship. This job is definitely worthwhile.
He stroked his beard and watched Qin Song's response. The other two spoke up first: "We'll stay."
The two returned to their initial pattern, with one of them grabbing Qin Song's wrist and speaking at the same time.
The shopkeeper feigned a frown, but became even more excited by the thrilling emotional entanglement between the three.
However, Qin Song did not do as he wished. She said with a smile, "Why don't you stay here and I'll go to another place?"
Lu Youchuan might genuinely need a hotel room, while she and Li Yu had ulterior motives. As long as Li Yu went in, finished investigating, and then came out to find her, they could simply stay there.
Her plan was simple, but the two experts disagreed, saying in unison again, "Then we won't stay there."
The three of them were about to leave when they finished talking.
The shopkeeper suddenly panicked and shouted again, "Alright, alright, it's the New Year, I'll give you another room, but..."
He was halfway through his sentence when he stroked his goatee and secretly glanced at them.
The three stopped and turned around.
Lu Youchuan: "Do you want more money?"
Li Yu: "How much do you want?"
"Double the price. Oh, no, triple it." The shopkeeper initially held up two fingers, then forcefully added another one.
Li Yu and Lu Youchuan each took out a silver ingot. "Is that enough?"
"Enough, enough. Please come in, gentlemen." The shopkeeper's eyes lit up as he ushered the three into the shop.
Whether it was due to the holiday or the fact that the store was inherently luxurious, the lavishly decorated lobby was illuminated by dozens of candles, which shone brightly against the backdrop of jewels and glass.
The hall was bustling with noise and people, seemingly free and chaotic, but in fact well-ordered. The three-story inn was heavily guarded with a large number of staff. Each floor had no fewer than ten servants and guards. Running around would definitely be discovered, and it would be difficult to find someone here.
"Have the three of you decided on your room assignments?" Qin Song was looking around the inn when the innkeeper suddenly asked.
"I live with my husband." Qin Song spoke first this time, holding Li Yu's arm and acting very tender and affectionate.
Li Yu's lips finally curled up slightly.
Lu Youchuan's already deep and sharp features became even darker, making him look even more unapproachable.
The innkeeper glanced at it but didn't dare to look any longer. He then deliberately reminded her, "Young lady, you two will stay in room number three of the first-class suite on the second floor. And this brother-in-law will stay in room number five of the first-class suite on the third floor."
"Okay." Qin Song agreed immediately without asking their opinions, then looked at Lu Youchuan, her shallow dimples like a gentle spring breeze, "Will brother-in-law go out for a walk? Or will he stay in the room the whole time?"
Tsk, beautiful women are a source of trouble, truly a source of trouble.
They're so blatant about using secret codes.
If the shopkeeper hadn't had to stand by and collect payments, he would have followed them and enjoyed the show.
On the other side, Lu Youchuan was very unwilling, even gritting his teeth, but he didn't show it, cooperating with Qin Song's performance, "I'm waiting for you in the room."
Qin Song pretended not to understand again, and under Lu Youchuan's unwavering gaze, she took her husband's arm and returned to their room.
Once the door closed, the hustle and bustle was shut out, leaving only intimate and sensual moments in the closed room.
Li Yu turned around and pinned Qin Song against the door, lowering her head to kiss and bite him, her movements urgent and fierce.
He avoided her wounds, pressing against her from top to bottom, his tongue prying open her lips and teeth, sometimes teasing, sometimes kissing and licking.
His kissing skills improved, and Qin Song was soon kissed so hard that she could no longer stand, her breathing became disordered and rapid, and her body went limp in waves.
He held her waist with one hand, never before feeling such an urgent impulse.
If he could, he would want to possess her right now, not let go all night, and preferably leave his marks all over her body, so that Lu Youchuan would know that he was too late and that she wanted him now.
But as he kissed her, he started to cry. Tears streamed down his face, the salty taste of them falling onto their tightly pressed lips.
Li Yu suddenly let go of her, as if afraid of soiling her, and wiped away the tears that had stained her lips, but he couldn't help but let tears stream down his cheeks.
A vague, elusive sense of loss brought him to the brink of collapse.
He didn't want her to see him like this, so he pulled her into his arms, buried his face in Qin Song's shoulder, and called her in a muffled voice, "Songniang..."
Qin Song hugged the person in his arms who was sobbing and trembling, and gently patted his back, "I'm here."
"Will you... still want me? Please don't... don't go to him, okay?" Her voice trembled, spilling out intermittently from her throat, filled with grievances and insecurity, mixed with bewilderment, stumbling into Qin Song's heart.
Qin Song couldn't bear it. She gently nudged the man's head up, cupped his face in one hand, and gave him a tender look she had never given before, which fell softly on his wet cheeks.
She didn't know how to comfort him. In the past, men only needed to follow behind her and had no right to make any demands on her.
But the heartbreaking sense of brokenness in the person in front of her forced her to confront his feelings.
Meeting the man's eager gaze, which awaited her response, Qin Song looked at him gently.
She didn't speak immediately, but instead tilted her head back and kissed the tears at the corner of his eyes, mimicking him by sticking out her tongue and licking his wet tears.
A delicate, warm, and moist sensation crept onto her skin, causing Li Yu's misty eyes to widen suddenly, and her scalp to tingle.
She...actually licked up his tears!
How could she? How could he be worthy of her? How could she lick such filth?
Li Yu's mind went blank, but her heart was slowly filled, leaving her stunned and unsure how to react.
"Li Yu, I won't abandon you. Lu Youchuan is no more important than you." Qin Song looked gently into his eyes.
The man's pupils trembled slightly, and he pulled her into his arms again.
"Songniang, I adore you." He said it very seriously, and then, as if afraid that she wouldn't believe him, he repeated, "I will always adore you."
“I know, Li Yu.” Qin Song rested his chin on his shoulder, then tilted his head slightly to get closer to him. “But I still have to go see Lu Youchuan.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu hugged her even tighter.
Qin Song sensed his emotions and continued to explain: "We need to investigate the whereabouts of that northern barbarian, but this shop is heavily guarded, and the shopkeeper is always watching the shop. If there is anything unusual, he will definitely deal with it quietly. But he is obviously very interested in our relationship. If I have an affair with my 'brother-in-law,' he will not only not care, but will also deliberately cooperate and just wait to see the show."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Song immediately added, "It's a pretense, a pretense of having an affair. You can also pretend to catch them in the act and search for me all the way. That way, right under the shopkeeper's nose, who's watching the show, we can split up and search for the northern barbarian's whereabouts."
"I didn't want this to happen. I don't want anyone to look down on you," Li Yu said sullenly before slowly releasing her, looking at her with a wronged expression. "But since it's your idea, I'll listen to you."
“However,” he added solemnly, “be careful.”
He was extremely reluctant to let her leave, but he didn't want to upset her.
In any case, Lu Youchuan is skilled with a knife and holds a high position. Even if his identity is exposed, he can protect her. Perhaps it is really safer for her than to be with him.
He lowered his eyes in thought, his fists clenching tighter and tighter beneath his wide sleeves, but in the end he loosened them, saying only somberly, "It's good that you're safe."
"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Qin Song patted his hand reassuringly, then turned to leave.
But Li Yu grabbed her sleeve again.
Qin Song stopped and turned to look at her. He pursed his lips and said reluctantly, "Can you call me... 'Li Lang'?"
Qin Song was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that she had called Lu Youchuan "Lu Lang", so he had heard it almost the whole time that day.
She licked her lips and had no choice but to obey him. She tiptoed closer to his ear and whispered, "My husband."
·
It was a while after Qin Song broke free from Li Yu's kiss. She pretended to be quiet and kept glancing back to see if her husband had followed, but in reality, she deliberately tried to distinguish the slightly pungent smell of the northern barbarians in the inn, which was filled with the strong aroma of wine and various other smells.
Her extraordinary sense of smell allowed her to locate her target without alerting the guards; she only needed to walk around the building to find the person she was tracking, greatly reducing the difficulty of finding them.
Passing through the second floor, she didn't smell anything unusual. Arriving at the third floor, she still couldn't smell the target's scent. Instead, the calm, steady scent of pine wood filled her nostrils first.
Lu Youchuan stood with a deep frown in front of the fence, waiting for her arrival.
People were coming and going in the stairwell. The young man in black clothes and black hair stood no more than ten steps away from the entrance of the stairwell. He was looking down at the building below, but as soon as Qin Song came upstairs, he seemed to have eyes in the back of his head and immediately turned around to stare straight at Qin Song's figure.
Everything around him seemed to vanish, except for the woman gazing at him from afar, standing out starkly in the noisy environment.
Lu Youchuan strode forward, his gaze gently sweeping across her lips before landing on the corner of her shirt where a bandage was visible on her shoulder.
Qin Song instinctively tried to tug at his collar, but he held her hand down, his long arms wrapped around her shoulders and back and knees, and he picked her up horizontally, carrying her back to the room without any restraint.
