Chapter 1324: Qi Ruohua: Yuheng, You Were Very Different Last Night
When the window paper is pierced, the truth is revealed, and it is also the most awkward moment.
How to dispel the awkwardness?
Chen Chuyang proved his method with concrete action, acting directly without regard to anything, and not letting Jing Yuheng leave him; anything that can be solved by action will never be handled by other means.
The facts showed his method was extremely effective; Jing Yuheng spent the night enjoying the wonderful time that Qi Ruohua usually enjoys, she endured far too much, and when she could no longer bear it, everything ended, and she fell asleep.
Even a strong will cannot last to the end, and Qi Ruohua is the same; the two women fell asleep, staying with Chen Chuyang, and after waking, Jing Yuheng struggled to get up, and while the two were still asleep, tried to leave quickly to avoid the awkwardness.
Even though her movements were gentle, they still startled Qi Ruohua; she opened her eyes, turned her head to watch Jing Yuheng's actions, every move under her gaze, Jing Yuheng's body was stiff, she instinctively lowered her head, sensed the feeling of being stared at, and couldn't help but look at Qi Ruohua, and in that instant her expression hardened.
"Your…Your Majesty," Jing Yuheng managed to speak, her face flushing with shame; she dared not face the woman, or rather, she didn't know how to face her.
Qi Ruohua slowly sat up; the fatigue, weariness, and faint soreness in her body made her furrow her brows, and a sidelong glance fell on the still‑sleeping husband. Reluctant to expose him, she knew Chen Chuyang had long been awake, but was merely acting.
"Yuheng, how do you feel?" Qi Ruohua teased.
Her lips slightly part, eyes fixed on Jing Yuheng before her, that gaze filled with mockery and flirtation.
She surveyed her general and sister from all sides; last night's debauchery turned her into a different person. Previously she had hidden herself; last night everything was exposed, no longer concealable—that is the true Jing Yuheng.
Fragile and unable to let go, that shyness was truly different.
She was vastly different from her usual self, as if she were another person; Qi Ruohua kept appraising Jing Yuheng, trying to make her shy with her gaze. Jing Yuheng did become shy, but she threw caution to the wind and stared directly at Qi Ruohua's eyes.
"Your Majesty, last night you seemed…" Jing Yuheng began teasing.
Qi Ruohua ignored her question and mocked, "I never expected our usual general to be so proper, so disciplined. Last night you opened my eyes; it seems you really have been restraining yourself for too long, rarely letting yourself go, so you went a bit wild."
"Our general performed well last night, just a bit too fragile."
Straightforward, direct, those words pierced the heart.
Jing Yuheng's face reddened as she recalled her performance last night, and she dared not meet Qi Ruohua's gaze.
"Your Majesty!" Jing Yuheng pouted angrily.
Qi Ruohua smiled and waved her hand, "Alright, I won't say more. That's enough, right?"
She took Jing Yuheng's hand, they rose together, walked a few steps forward, put on their clothes, and sat on a chair.
"Yuheng, from now on we are sisters; you can't run away. Your husband likes you; last night it was clear he is truly interested in you."
"I also know your thoughts; besides your husband, no one else catches your eye. This time we join forces, you performed well; if luck is on your side, perhaps you could bear a child for your husband, and then you would receive even more of his favor."
"From now on, we must help each other; we can't hide from me as before, understand?"
Jing Yuheng shyly lowered her head, "Your Majesty, please stop."
The thin‑skinned Jing Yuheng didn't want to discuss the topic; her gaze kept drifting to Chen Chuyang, fearing he would wake and cause more awkwardness.
Her performance last night was indeed poor.
She found herself both amused and shy; she didn't want to face Chen Chuyang, just wanted to leave quickly. The more she tried, the more Qi Ruohua wouldn't let her go, holding her hand and tugging her this way and that, apparently on purpose.
Chen Chuyang also saw it; the lady realized he was awake and was just pretending to sleep. He shook his head; Qi Ruohua's little scheme was obvious—she just wanted to make Jing Yuheng awkward, confront the awkwardness, so next time it wouldn't be awkward.
With the person here, she couldn't let the other run away.
Solve everything at once, lest she become unfindable later.
"Husband, won't you get up and look at your good wife?" Qi Ruohua turned and shouted at Chen Chuyang.
Jing Yuheng's body jolted, and she immediately got up, trying to leave the room.
Qi Ruohua held her hand, refusing to let her go, giggling, "Sister Yuheng, where are you going?"
Jing Yuheng stammered, "Your…Your…Your Majesty, I…your servant…"
She panicked; in her confusion she didn't know what to say.
Chen Chuyang sat up and walked toward the two; seeing this, Jing Yuheng struggled hard, trying to shake off Qi Ruohua's hand, but found she couldn't, nor could she escape, so she could only give up.
She stood powerless in place, a look of despair, and until Chen Chuyang came to her side, she showed no reaction.
Chen Chuyang grasped Jing Yuheng's other hand; her body trembled again, making a big movement. He leaned close, blowing at her, "Madam, are you afraid?"
"Are you afraid of your husband? Or just shy?"
"Gulu." Jing Yuheng didn't know how to answer; her body was uncontrollable, she only felt she wanted to leave this place, leave this man, and that last night's tragedy must not happen again.
She truly was…panicked; that feeling of embarrassment was really terrible.
"No, no, no, no." Jing Yuheng said with her mouth, stammering, unable to form a complete sentence.
Her body kept trembling uncontrollably.
Chen Chuyang's other hand rested on her shoulder; Jing Yuheng's body shook even more noticeably. It was clearly not their first time, nor a first meeting; they had long been intimately familiar, yet the woman was still very nervous and shy.
It was still the first time he encountered such a situation, and Chen Chuyang naturally felt excited, wanting to tease her properly.
He wanted the woman to know his methods and also let her feel his gentleness.
"Is that so?" Chen Chuyang leaned in and asked, his gaze full of aggression.
"Yes, I'm not afraid, I'm not scared of you." Jing Yuheng wanted to cry; she truly wanted to leave this place.
But the two of them wouldn't let her go, wanting to mock her, especially Your Majesty Qi Ruohua, who was the most hateful.
If it weren't for her, Jing Yuheng would have run away long ago; she wouldn't have encountered this.
She couldn't handle it and didn't know how to.
