At the dock.
Qin Jin waited on the beach, his neck stiff from looking so long, but Ling Huanwu still didn't come over.
From afar, they saw Guard Ma rushing over in a panic, saying angrily, "Master, don't wait any longer! Our future sister-in-law is on a date with her man on the beach over there!"
"Damn it, I thought I could leave this awful place tonight, but that damn Zhou guy came back early!"
Ma, the guard, kept cursing. Qin Jinshen looked at the ship hidden behind the reef not far away, and his face darkened.
Upon learning that Zhou Shuyao had also been reborn in the morning, he immediately sent out a signal flare to summon nearby ships to come and provide assistance.
He knew it was Ling Huanwu's birthday today, so he had a large three-tiered cake prepared on the ship to surprise her.
At the same time, he also wanted to kidnap her under the cover of darkness.
This completely extinguished Zhou Shuyao's desire to pursue his wife.
Because he couldn't afford to gamble or wait, he thought he would kidnap her and then slowly win her heart.
But as expected, things didn't go as planned, and Zhou Jiuzhen, that hothead, actually interfered.
Qin Jinshen didn't say anything more. He knew he couldn't miss this opportunity; he had to bring the man back to the ship tonight.
He limped toward the sea that the guard pointed out, his stiff and aching legs trembling.
Beside the steep seaside rocks, Guard Ma solemnly handed a short knife to Qin Jinshen and gave him a thumbs-up. "Master, I believe that with an extra knife, you can definitely defeat that Zhou kid. You know, you are the only Chinese person to win an award in an international shooting competition. I believe you can finish that kid off with one strike!"
Qin Jinshen took the knife without saying much, gripping the hilt with full confidence.
How could a capable man from the port city be outdone by a peasant?
Today he's going to settle this kid's score right here and scatter his ashes into the sea.
The thought of Ling Huanwu suffering alongside this burly, rough man and having to share a bed with this bear-like man made his heart ache with anger.
He dealt with Zhou Jiuzhen first, and then he would slowly but surely cut Zhou Shuyao to pieces.
Thinking of this, Qin Jin took a deep breath and struggled to climb up the rock.
He climbed to the top of the rock.
Facing the breathtaking, boundless blue landscape below, I couldn't help but be momentarily lost in thought.
Looking around at the deserted rock top, Qin Jinshen was about to go down and give Guard Ma a good scolding when he heard a suggestive sound coming from the bottom of the rock on the other side.
After waiting for a while without hearing any movement, the guard also climbed up.
Upon arriving, he immediately heard some natural and harmonious sounds and blurted out instinctively, "Seriously? These two are so good at having fun!"
The moment the words left his mouth, he immediately covered his mouth and looked at Qin Jinshen's expression.
Qin Jinshen swayed as he slowly approached the source of the sound.
They craned their necks and looked down.
There appears to be a cave beneath the rocks.
Suddenly, a woman's forearm, gleaming with a pearly luster, appeared at the dark rock cave entrance, accompanied by a deafening sob that reached everyone's ears.
Qin Jin was extremely familiar with that voice.
The woman's exposed forearm was taut in a beautiful arc.
Like the spring in an old-fashioned clock that's about to snap, you're both afraid of losing control and hoping that the string will finally loosen.
Her rosy fingertips gripped the entrance of the cave so tightly that the soft moonlight made it clear how her fingers trembled slightly.
A large, rough hand with calloused knuckles reached out, covered her small hand, and took it inside.
Standing on the rock, Qin Jinshen watched this scene and knew without a doubt what the two were doing down below.
Qin Jinshen felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his head buzzing.
In his memories of his previous life, he remembered that his elder brother, Zhou Shuyao, should have been incapacitated.
How could this be? How is this possible?
At this point, he had completely forgotten about scattering the ashes.
He lost his balance and fell backward.
The guard quickly reached out to catch him, cursing under his breath as he carried him away from the scorching hot place.
＊
At midnight, Zhou Jiuzhen carried Ling Huanwu home on his back.
As soon as he arrived at his doorstep, he saw Zhou Shuyao waiting for him with red eyes.
Zhou Shuyao stood in the doorway, his gaze falling on Ling Huanwu, who was fast asleep with her head resting on Zhou Jiuzhen's shoulder. Finally, his gaze settled on Zhou Jiuzhen's radiant and spirited face, and anger surged to the top of his head, making his hair stand on end.
Zhou Jiuzhen was puzzled as to why his younger brother was angry. In order not to wake his wife, he silently walked past Zhou Shuyao and pushed open the door to enter the house.
He gently placed his tired wife on the bed.
Seeing her flushed cheeks and swollen lips, he couldn't help but lean down and peck at her red lips before tucking her in, turning around and leaving with the door closed.
The scene of Zhou Jiuzhen kissing Ling Huanwu inside the room was also witnessed by Zhou Shuyao at the door.
The moment the door closed, Zhou Shuyao jumped over like a cat with its fur standing on end, grabbed Zhou Jiuzhen by the collar and started yelling.
"Who gave you permission to kiss my wife? And where did you take her just now?"
Zhou Shuyao, who had been waiting at home all night, was already in extreme agony. When he saw his wife being kissed by his older brother, he lost all reason and forgot about the swap marriage between him and his older brother. He blurted out "wife".
When Zhou Jiuzhen saw his younger brother, who had been clinging to him and calling him "Big Brother" all morning, a huge question mark immediately appeared above his head.
"Wife? Who are you calling wife?! Your wife is still in jail. If you're lonely and can't handle the excitement at night, you can't come here and go crazy!"
"Get the hell out of here and go home!"
After giving him a few words of advice, Zhou Jiuzhen turned around and wanted to go back inside to continue sleeping with his wife.
