Chapter 57 Having an affair with Lu?
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Youchuan carried Qin Song into the house, and even after closing the door, he didn't put her down, but carried her all the way into the inner room.
He placed her on a small table in front of a bronze mirror by the window. Qin Song sat while he stood, and the two were at eye level.
Before he could speak, Qin Song lifted his chin.
"Brother-in-law, are you having an affair?"
"Brother-in-law?" Lu Youchuan stared intently at her slightly red lips, then suddenly kissed her, gently sucking on her lips, his voice tinged with a hint of accusation: "Is this the kind of brother-in-law you are?"
Qin Song also opened his eyes, so close that he could see the fine hairs on the other's skin and the delicate patterns in his dark pupils. His skin was not as fair as Tao Li's, but it was healthy, smooth and even.
Her hot breath made her cheeks burn. Qin Song looked at the desire in his eyes, unafraid of his questioning. Taking advantage of the pause in his speech, she gently licked his upper lip, "Even more exciting now."
Lu Youchuan's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at her for a moment, then kissed her chin again. "You like this?"
Qin Song didn't answer him, but instead lifted his chin to look at the bronze mirror behind him.
A deep, beautiful face appeared in the mirror, with slightly parted red lips.
"You seem to like it too." Qin Song turned around and looked at his reflection in the mirror.
Lu Youchuan did like it, but not because he liked being called "brother-in-law." It was simply a pleasant surprise that he found it hard to part with.
He missed her so much.
During the time he was away from Yunzhou, he soiled her underwear several times.
He had never been so engrossed in matters of the heart.
He fell in love with her the moment he saw her. Whether she called him brother-in-law or brother, he would be infatuated with her and want to be with her forever.
She was the valve that released his lust; seeing her would make him sink deeper and deeper, unable to extricate himself.
He didn't look at himself in the mirror much, then looked away and naturally began to unbutton her clothes to check her injuries.
"What happened to this injury on your shoulder?" Lu Youchuan peeled open her clothes, revealing a bandage wrapped around her fair shoulder. He gently removed it, revealing a slightly red wound, and his heartache was palpable.
He leaned in very close, and Qin Song felt uncomfortable from his breath. She raised her hand to pull her clothes back up. "I was ambushed by the Northern Barbarians, but I'm almost recovered. But what about you? What brings you to Qingze?"
Lu Youchuan was still concerned about her injuries, but she didn't want to explain further. Instead, she kept asking about his whereabouts, so he could only tell him about her situation over the past few days.
Upon returning to the capital, he immediately began investigating the matter in Yunzhou, but he was obstructed at every crucial moment.
He submitted a memorial requesting a thorough investigation of the matter, but His Majesty ordered him to investigate the Lei family thoroughly, leaving him unable to extricate himself from the investigation.
Later, he discovered that it was His Majesty's Embroidered Uniform Guard who intercepted the letters from Yunzhou. Something seemed amiss, so he dared not send the message easily. He then secretly went to Yunzhou again. On the way, he heard that an epidemic had also broken out in Qingze. Feeling something was wrong, he came to check it out.
"And you, when did you get a new husband?" Lu Youchuan was still affectionately rubbing her ear, but his eyes were fixed on her reaction.
"When you become my brother-in-law," Qin Song said with a sly glint in her eyes, pressing her hand against his lips, "Don't be angry, don't be jealous, let's get down to business first."
Lu Youchuan really couldn't do anything about her; he was completely unable to resist her guidance and had no choice but to listen to her attentively.
"The scourge that has appeared in the city is not an epidemic, but rather poisoning, so I came out to check the situation, only to find northern barbarians on the street who have also checked into this inn,"
Lu Youchuan followed her words: "You suspect that the northern barbarians poisoned it?"
Qin Song pondered for a moment and said, "That person disguised himself as a Dayu person and secretly mingled in the crowd. He clearly had ill intentions. Moreover, the Northern Barbarians are at war with Dayu, yet the Northern Barbarians can move freely in the Central Plains of Dayu. Don't you find that strange?"
"So you disguised yourselves to infiltrate the shop to investigate those northern barbarians?"
"Hmm, now it's just you and me pretending to investigate." Qin Song grinned mischievously, opening his arms to him with one hand. "Let's go, brother-in-law, shall we have a secret rendezvous?"
·
If Li Yu is clingy, then Lu Youchuan is a master of subtle control. He doesn't care whether it's legitimate or not; he openly holds her hand and walks shoulder to shoulder with her on the third floor of the inn.
Fortunately, Qin Song had prepared a veil in advance, which added a touch of secrecy to this "secret meeting".
“I checked the second floor, but there was no trace of that Northern Barbarian. It can only be the third floor or the first floor. The first floor is crowded and noisy, and it's mostly a place for food and entertainment. Since the Northern Barbarian is disguised as a Dayu person, he shouldn't linger in such a lively place. So the probability of him hiding on the third floor is the highest.” As Qin Song spoke, the corner of her veil would occasionally lift with her breath.
Lu Youchuan listened quietly to her analysis, "I can kick down each door to investigate."
Although he traveled in secret, he was tasked with thoroughly investigating the Lei family. The Lei family also happened to have a branch in Qingze, so it was not unreasonable for him to expose his whereabouts.
With his status as the Left Censor-in-Chief, he could easily find any excuse to turn this inn upside down.
Qin Song gripped his hand tightly beneath his wide sleeve. "You forgot? My nose is very sensitive. Don't reveal your identity unless absolutely necessary," to avoid implicating Li Yu, who had left Yunzhou without permission.
After she finished speaking, she looked up at Lu Youchuan, gently sniffed, and squinted her eyes triumphantly.
Lively, playful, confident, and radiant.
Lu Youchuan paused slightly, his mind racing with countless words to describe the impact of this scene, yet he couldn't find a suitable and accurate word to describe its beauty.
His heart started racing for no reason, and he tightened his grip on her hand under his sleeve.
Although the inn did not explicitly restrict guests' movement, the rooms that were already occupied were clearly guarded by servants to prevent others from disturbing them.
Passing through the middle staircase from the room on the left, and continuing forward, things seem rather furtive.
Qin Song glanced at the guards around him, and then looked at the two people who were gradually approaching with a wary gaze.
She glanced downstairs again and unexpectedly met the gaze of the goatee-bearded shopkeeper who was watching the commotion.
Perfect, let's satisfy his desire to watch the excitement.
"Hold me." Qin Song pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision.
Lu Youchuan immediately did as he was told and pulled her into his arms.
"Kiss me." Qin Song lowered his voice, deliberately peeking furtively down the stairs to the second floor, then pretending to cover his face and hide.
Lu Youchuan played along with her act and kissed her on the forehead.
Qin Song was not satisfied. "Be a little more vulgar. Don't forget, you're having a secret rendezvous with your 'sister-in-law'."
...Vulgar? Lu Youchuan pondered these two words repeatedly, and began to feel embarrassed.
He was already being very vulgar, and if he went any more vulgar... he instinctively bent down, lifted her veil, and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
The stimulation from their intertwined lips and tongues was amplified for no reason, and Qin Song's breathing became rapid.
"Don't stop, keep kissing as you walk," Qin Song whispered between kisses.
Kissing while walking is a bit difficult, so Lu Youchuan wanted to pick her up.
As soon as he raised his hand, Qin Song grabbed his wrist again and pressed it against a soft spot.
“That’s more in line with the rules.” Qin Song turned slightly to the side, his cheeks burning.
Lu Youchuan's fingers stiffened and unconsciously curled up, as if he were gripping something. His legs, however, felt like they were filled with lead, and his movements became unnatural.
"Gentlemen, the stairs are over there." The servant standing guard on the right side of the corridor near the stairwell gently stopped them.
She had clearly been instructed by the shopkeeper to go upstairs earlier, and he deliberately wanted her to seduce her brother-in-law to satisfy his desire to watch the drama unfold. Now that she was giving him a show, she was still being prevented from stepping onto the other side. It seemed that there was indeed a secret behind it.
Let's try to get away with it again. If that doesn't work, then we'll have to let Lu Youchuan kick the door down.
Qin Song turned around shyly, buried her face in Lu Youchuan's arms, and grabbed his clothes, "Brother-in-law, I'm so embarrassed, please don't let my husband find out."
Lu Youchuan was still a little awkward, but he quickly understood what she meant. He looked at the servant with a solemn expression and said coldly, "Shut up! You've ruined my mood. I'll cut out your tongue."
His dark expression is really intimidating.
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a few taels of silver from his waist and threw them to the servant, saying, "Get me a different room; I want to stay over there."
Tsk! Stupid Lu Youchuan, such concise words, your acting is completely off.
Qin Song could only peek out from under his clothes, and said shyly and coquettishly, "Brother-in-law, hurry up, my husband will be up soon, it'll be all over if he finds out."
After saying that, she hid her head again.
The servant was utterly astonished, silently shocked by the complicated relationship between the two. He couldn't help but glance downstairs, just in time to meet the shopkeeper's gaze, and subtly received a hint.
"We didn't have any rooms available, but we do have one left by the top courtesan of Peking Opera. If you two don't mind, you can make do with it."
"Okay," Qin Song immediately agreed.
The waiter stuffed the silver into his pocket and led them forward: "This way, please. These rooms are for distinguished guests. Please keep your noise low, or you will have to pay for any damages."
The servant led them into the third room in front, directly opposite the main hall downstairs. He gave them a few brief instructions and then turned back to his post.
The two exchanged a glance, understood each other perfectly, and then intertwined themselves together, impatiently rushing into the house.
The room was large, with light gauze curtains and red canopies, and red candles flickering; it was clearly not a room for respectable people.
It's really suitable for them, these "wild lovers".
"Pick me up."
At Qin Song's command, Lu Youchuan immediately complied.
With his body lifted into the air, Qin Song wrapped his legs around his waist, his uninjured hands resting on his shoulders, looking down at him from above, "Push against the door, and start moving."
Lu Youchuan turned around, staring at her face, his chest heaving more, his Adam's apple bobbing as he swallowed. "Are you breathing?"
"It couldn't be better." She loved listening to his panting and couldn't help but lower her head to kiss him.
Noises and sounds filled the room, accompanied by suggestive whispers.
Qin Song heard footsteps approaching outside the door, pause for a moment, and then disappear into the distance.
When the noise outside subsided, Qin Song managed to muster a little clarity and whispered, "It's next door."
The room next door had a strong northern barbarian vibe.
"I heard them, they were discussing how to escape." Lu Youchuan licked Qin Song's earlobe, his voice low and hoarse.
Qin Song was overwhelmed by his kisses, but his ears were very sharp. In the noisy environment, he could hear the voices coming from the next room, speaking in the Northern Barbarian language.
"Can you understand what they're saying?" Qin Song asked, panting, as he nuzzled Lu Youchuan's nose.
“Three years ago, an envoy from the Northern Barbarians came to the court. I accompanied him and learned the Northern Barbarian language.”
·
Two incense sticks' worth of time had passed since Qin Song left, and Li Yu could no longer contain himself. Following Qin Song's instructions, shortly after her departure, he pretended to be searching for someone, and they split up. He had barely taken a few steps out the door when the goatee-bearded shopkeeper came down from the third floor. Seeing him, he asked, "Where are you going, young master? Is there anything you need?"
Li Yu wanted to avoid him, but he acted as if he had come specifically to find him: "No need, I'm looking for my wife."
The shopkeeper suddenly laughed, then feigned surprise: "Your young lady isn't in the room?"
Li Yu frowned and remained silent.
"Young master, don't wander around. The young lady's brother-in-law is in the shop. She's probably looking for him. How about I take you to her brother-in-law's room to take a look?"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he stepped aside to make way for the way upstairs.
This restaurant is about to get bustling. If word gets out, the place will be overflowing with people just to hear the gossip, and business will only get better.
If a fight really breaks out, he'll report it to the authorities and also make some money from the damage to his goods. No matter how you look at it, it's a win-win situation.
Li Yu couldn't shake him off, so he could only follow him upstairs. But instead of taking him to the A-class section, he went to the B-class section.
