Qu Feiqing sighed lightly, laid out a sheet of rice paper, and started to sketch.

She thought that she was obvious enough, so why did Su Xin still look completely unaware.

Did she really not know, or was she pretending to be ignorant?

Qu Feiqing’s mouth pressed into a thin line. It didn’t matter which it was, but if someone provoked her, they shouldn’t even think about running away.

Su Xin had willingly delivered herself to her door, and she was welcomed.

Qu Feiqing painted until late at night, and the candle in the lampshade had already burned to one-third. She blinked her tired eyes and looked at the painting.

The painting depicted a beautiful woman smiling in between the flowers.

Letting the paint dry, Qu Feiqing picked up her brush again and thought of signing an inscription on it. However, after a moment, she gave up.

Qu Feiqing lay on her bed after taking a bath. She was used to holding Su Xin to sleep from time to time, but now she felt a bit lonely and couldn’t sleep.

Qu Feiqing was a very selfish person. She didn’t want to give more love than the other person, wanting to be the sober one, but now she found out that it was so difficult to reduce her love even by just one point.

Feelings were not as light as people say. It would take a while to let them go.

On the other side, Su Xin was still very depressed, sitting on the bed with her eyes open and not sleepy.

“Miss, is there something on your mind?”

Shu Quan asked softly, with drooping eyes.

Shu Quan had grown more respectful and humble. She was now standing there, with a somewhat indifferent stance. Even the smile on her face was less bright, and she no longer shed tears in front of Su Xin.

“Nothing much. Shu Quan don’t you feel flustered in this palace, being locked up here for such a long time?”

“Miss feels bored in the palace?”

Instead of answering Su Xin’s question, Shu Quan asked one of her own.

“A little.”

Su Xin fiddled with the jade bead on her wrist, which was given to her by Qu Feiqing. She felt that it was a very precious thing.

“Can Miss bear to leave Her Majesty?”

Shu Quan tentatively asked. Su Xin’s movements stopped, and she looked up at Shu Quan.

Su Xin’s eyes were sharp like a needle, and this pricked Shu Quan’s heart.

“You knew my plans?”

“Miss never wanted to hide anything from Shu Quan, did she?”

Shu Quan smiled bitterly, she was Su Xin’s personal servant girl, she would follow Su Xin wherever she went, but she wasn’t blind, it was clear that Su Xin did not want her to follow, but rather wanted to run in the opposite direction to her Majesty.

“Why did you ask me if I was willing to leave her?”

Su Xin was curious about this. What did she show that gave Shu Quan the impression that she couldn’t live without Qu Feiqing?

“Doesn’t Miss like Her Majesty?”

Shu Quan clenched her fists, her heart was filled with sorrow.

“Huh? What? I don’t like her.”

Su Xin was at a loss. She had said there that she liked Qu Feiqing, but it was only affection for physical intimacy. It seemed like Qu Feiqing genuinely liked her.

Shu Quan looked at Su Xin blankly, without any expression on her face, and her voice was very soft.

“Miss you’re so cruel.”

[Host, you are such a scumbag.]

Fourteen couldn’t help but speak out.

“Uh?”

Su Xin was very innocent. She was also curious to understand why she was suddenly a scumbag.

Looking at Su Xin’s ignorant expression, Shu Quan sighed inwardly, not knowing whether to gloat or pity her.

“If Miss doesn’t like Her Majesty, why are you so obsessed with Her Majesty, looking for her every day.”

Since you don’t like a person, why do you give her the illusion that you like her?

She only remembered chatting about sexual affection, not talking about love! She thought she and Qu Feiqing had reached a consensus. Didn’t it happen?

Su Xin waved away Shu Quan, quietly thinking about life on the bed.

Fourteen, does everyone think I like Qu Feiqing?

[Seems like there isn’t anyone who doesn’t know.]

Su Xin sighed. In fact, she liked Qu Feiqing a lot. She liked Qu Feiqing’s character,  her face, and she liked to play with Qu Feiqing, but there was still something wrong.

[Will the host be angry if you see the Queen be with someone else?]

Regardless of whether I like her, why should I be angry, if she’s happy.

Su Xin was fond of Qu Feiqing because she liked being friends with benefits.

Fourteen could no longer speak, it didn’t understand this kind of thing, it just watched it. As long as the situation doesn’t get out of control, the host can do whatever she wants.

On the second day, Su Xin began to keep a distance from Qu Feiqing.

“Are you hiding from me?”

Qu Feiqing caught Su Xin, who was enjoying the flowers in the palace, instead of running away.

“No, I want to apologize to you.”

Su Xin said, as she shook her head.

“Oh? What did you do wrong?”

Hope rose in Qu Feiqing’s heart.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have made you think that I liked you…”

“It’s okay.”

Qu Feiqing didn’t wait for Su Xin to finish, and interrupted her, the coldness echoing in her chest, pumping pain.

“Do you hate me?”

“No, I think you are very nice, have a  good face, good personality, but…”

Su Xin looked at the ground and sighed.

[Host, you two are fools, can you shut up?]

Fourteen really didn’t want Su Xin to worry about this anymore.

“Needless to say.”

Qu Feiqing didn’t walk away, but took Su Xin’s hand and made a clear smile.

“Yesterday, the Imperial Cook developed a new pastry. I think it was not bad. You should try it.”

Qu Feiqing pulled Su Xin away, and Su Xin followed her in a daze.

Fourteen, this reaction was different from what I thought.

Fourteen did not want to speak, it was tired and did not want to make a scene.

Su Xin stared blankly at Qu Feiqing, who was feeding her pastries one by one, with a very confused expression.

Qu Feiqing looked at Su Xin’s perplexed and obedient look, with a smile on her face, the gloominess in her heart continued to increase.

If Su Xin could be very decisive, she might not adopt this kind of tenderness policy, but she always showed a feeling of dependence on her, which made Qu Feiqing sink deeper and deeper.

Su Xin looked soft and weak on the outside, and while it was not an exaggeration, she also had a very strong heart, just like a sharp sword.

Someone so strong would easily break. Qu Feiqing didn’t want to force her, but she didn’t want to let her go just like that.

Wasn’t this a good look now? Su Xin looked so good and so docile.

Why did Su Xin have to run away from her? Su Xin felt bored, so she was leaving. When she left, she would leave her here alone.

Su Xin broke into her heart and approached her first, so how could she just run away like this.

It was too selfish.

Qu Feiqing discovered that Su Xin had the kind of personality that was strong when she met a  strong character and weak when she met a weak character.

If you had a fight with Su Xin, it might also inspire Su Xin’s ambition. Qu Feiqing can see that Su Xin would definitely not be a person who was willing to resign.

But if it was that kind of particularly soft personality, like a knife wrapped in cotton wool, Su Xin would not know it. This was her weakness in character.

Qu Feiqing wiped off the cake residue from Su Xin’s lips, put it in her mouth and licked it off.

This action was very sensual, but also very natural.

Su Xin leaned in and exchanged a kiss with Qu Feiqing. It was greasy and done crookedly.

The two went back to the room and started doing it again. Su Xin, afterwards, felt extremely tired and fell asleep with her eyes closed.

Su Xin and Qu Feiqing seemed to have gone back to the past. Qu Feiqing was more caring for Su Xin, which made Su Xin feel a little weird, and she felt that she was not the only one.

Qu Feiyun and Su Xin got together again and gossiped. After all, Su Xin was too bored, and Qu Feiyun was also very leisurely. Two very leisurely people gathered together, drinking tea, chatting, reading, and talking about Qu Feiqing. .

“It seems that the Empress really likes you.”

Qu Feiyun propped her face, resting her elbows on the stone table.

“Um.”

Su Xin understood and nodded.

“But I always feel that something is wrong. How do I feel that the Empress petting you is the same as petting her little wife?”

Qu Feiyun changed her posture, supporting her face with her hands, and looking up and down Su Xin’s body.

Su Xin smiled and said nothing.

The whole palace knew that the Empress had a luthier who was kept in the harem and was extremely precious.

When Su Xin got up one day, she was about to get out of bed but found that her legs were numb and she almost couldn’t feel anything.

Su Xin didn’t feel that she was overdoing it. She was helped by Shu Juan onto the bed and asked Shu Quan to call for a doctor.

The imperial doctor came and couldn’t see anything. He prescribed a few patches of tonic and nourishing qi medicine and left.

Su Xin knew what was going on and sighed while sitting on the bed.

Qu Feiqing came, standing silently beside Su Xin’s bed, and reached out to touch Su Xin’s leg.

“I’ve already said that I won’t leave. Why don’t you believe it.”

Su Xin looked at Qu Feiqing, knowing that it was Qu Feiqing who did some tricks on her legs.

“You never said that.”

Qu Feiqing pursed her lips. This person has been looking for opportunities; maybe when she feels completely bored, or feels that the outside world was safe, she would want to leave again.

“I’m talking about it now.”

Su Xin curled her lips.

“I don’t like this, I’m going to be angry.”

Su Xin looked at Qu Feiqing with black and white eyes, speaking seriously.

“I won’t lie to you, I will stay with you forever”

Su Xin didn’t say anything when he saw that Qu Feiqing didn’t move, and poked Qu Feiqing’s hand.

Qu Feiqing was shocked, and she looked at Su Xin with disbelief.

She thought Su Xin was a wild horse that would never miss her chance to leave, but it seemed that this was not the case.

“Really?”

Qu Feiqing’s voice was a little hoarse. She looked down at Su Xin, still full of suspicion.

“Un.”

Su Xin nodded

She was very bored, yes, but her profession was constantly adventurous anyway, and when she was in a quiet and free place, she preferred to stay still.

Qu Feiqing was too kind to her, and that feeling eroded her desire to leave little by little.

As Qu Feiyun said, Qu Feiqing spoiled her very much, just like her wife.

Su Xin was soft-hearted. She still didn’t know the feeling of jealousy, and she couldn’t imagine that Qu Feiqing would be together with others.

Qu Feiqing was a capable lover. She would never give her the chance to be jealous.

“If you lie to me…”

Qu Feiqing’s hand gently stroked Su Xin’s knee. This time, it was a real promise. If she lied to her, then these legs were really unnecessary.

“I will not.”

Su Xin pressed against Qu Feiqing’s forehead and closed her eyes.

This life was so short, what do you do when you meet a good person.

In the second year after Su Xin came to the palace, something relatively important had happened. Qu Feiqing’s brother, Qu Xingchen’s father died, he had committed suicide.

Chapter 5- Good Student

TL: Zenith
ED: Arya
QC: Crazyformyself

Since being forced to sit at the same table, Mu Qi’s homework was always being completed punctually every day. Although it was copied, the teachers seemed to have reached a consensus to open one eye and close the other. They didn’t need to bicker about the details.

One month had passed since the first semester of high school. In this month, Su Yanxi gradually became acquainted with the students in the class. So when the class was over, many students would come to ask her questions. On her way home, people would also enthusiastically greet her.

As for Su Yanxi’s tablemate, everyone unanimously ignored each other.

Mu Qi would lie down on the desk and wanted to rest every day. But she found that she couldn’t even rest peacefully as there was too much chattering reaching her ears. She tried enduring it once or twice, but, at last, she lost her temper and flared up. However, to her dismay, not only were they not afraid of her, but they stared at her with contempt. So she could only curse irritably under her breath.

She stepped on the stool, then flipped over from the table behind, put her hands in her pockets and walked away.

The silhouette from the back looked very dashing, but at the same time it was also intimidating, and the people passing by would unconsciously move away.

Su Yanxi looked at the proud back, bit her lips, then smiled and rejected everyone’s questions. Lifting her heels, she walked out.

“Qi-Ge, where are you going?”

As soon as Su Yanxi walked out of the back door, she saw Hu Ying holding Mu Qi’s shoulders, and she was so frightened that she quickly hid in the corner and watched secretly.

“Find a place to sleep.” Mu Qi looked sleepy, looking like she couldn’t get enough sleep.

“Huh?” Hu Ying glanced back at the classroom suspiciously and said: “Don’t you usually sleep in the classroom?” With this glance, she just saw a person hiding behind the back door, and that person’s feet were exposed.

The person seemed to be shocked and quickly retracted their foot.

Hu Ying: “…”

Mu Qi didn’t notice this, so she waved her hand and replied, “Go to the class, I will go straight back and ask for a leave for myself.”

“No… Qi-ge, how would you find any reason to leave?” When Hu Ying heard she was looking for a reason to ask for leave, she felt a headache. She even had hemorrhoids and appendixes for Qi-ge, although she came out fine in school the next day. This kind of symptom did not accord with the patient’s appendix, and it lasted for a few days. As such, she had to face her class teacher’s suspicious gaze the whole time .

“Whatever.” Mu Qi didn’t need to worry about the rest of the matter, and she naturally doesn’t want to use her brain to think about it.　　

Only Hu Ying was left alone, crying without tears.

She finally arrived at her old place. Climbing over the wall, Mu Qi walked towards home empty-handed. However, when she was approaching home, she turned around and ran towards the alley next to the community. There was an internet cafe here, with usually very few people.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived there, she found Qi Wei, the boss of their neighbouring high school.

At the same time, Qi Wei also saw her and immediately exploded. Jumping up from the seat, she glared at her angrily. “Why the hell are you here?” 

She didn’t want to see Mu Qi again, so she ran into this small Internet cafe. Unexpectedly, this Mu Qi was vicious, and she had also actually followed her all the way here.

Mu Qi was also a little surprised. She smiled and walked over. Placing her ass beside her, she glanced at the computer screen. Qi Wei wanted to turn the computer over before it was too late.

“Oh, it’s another non-mainstream gang vying for war.” Her tone was a little lazy as she said leisurely.

Qi Wei stared at her, then she also sat down and took a sip of the Coke beside her. After suppressing her anger, she asked: “Are you following me? Why are you here again, where I am?”

Mu Qi raised her eyebrows. As she puffed her cigarette she said, “I have a crush on you.”

Hearing that, Qi Wei choked on her coke.　　

Mu Qi squinted at her, as her lazy gaze, under the smoke, appeared even more lazy, and her voice was low and as she questioned, “I haven’t asked you yet, why did you come here? Your home is in the north of the city.”　　

“As long as I’m happy, I’ll come as I wish,” Qi Wei said shamelessly.

“Oh.” Mu Qi withdrew his gaze flatly and focused on the computer screen, obviously not interested in why the other party came here.　　

Qi Wei: “…” Fuck, she couldn’t get angry when she saw this terribly silly face.

Tilting her head to see that the other party was watching a movie, she snorted and said,” you come back to the Internet cafe, just to watch a movie, What’s the point of it.”　　

Mu Qi hooked her lips and laughed, saying, “Don’t your non-mainstream gangs also play with relish?”

Qi Wei was left speechless and didn’t wish to talk anymore.

so, one is watching a movie, and the other is playing a game, which is also quiet.

At night, there was more traffic in the Internet cafes, and more takeaways would be ordered.　　

“Get up, let’s go together.” Mu Qi patted the shoulder of the person next to her.

“What?” Qi Wei was still doing her daily tasks and did not hear her clearly. Pulling down the earphones, she looked confusedly at her.　　

“Wanna grab a drink, yes or no?” Mu Qi had already stood up at this moment. She was 1.73 meters tall, taller than most of the boys in school.　　

“Let’s go!” Qi Wei told the gang members without pretense. Then she shut down the computer screen and left together.　　

The duo went out of the Internet cafe one after the other.　　

As soon as My Qi walked out of the Internet cafe, she was overwhelmed by the breeze of cold air.　　

“Hey, this old lady is going to die in this cold!” Qi Wei exclaimed in exaggeration with her eyes wide-opened.　　

Mu Qi glanced at her up and down, tugging the corner of her mouth and leaving.　　

Qi Wei was puzzled by her look, but she didn’t rush to settle the scores and quietly followed her.　　

The duo found a roadside barbecue stall, ordered a bunch of things, a few bottles of beer, and started eating.　　

Mu Qi didn’t speak. She just wanted to find someone to accompany her to drink.　　

Qi Wei saw that she was not interested in talking, so she also stopped looking for a topic.　　

When Su Yanxi and Hu Ying passed through there for their evening study, they saw Mu Qi who was supposed to find a place to rest, here drinking and chatting with the boss of Linan Middle School. How could this scene not make Hu Ying angry, as she immediately ran over to them?　　

Su Yanxi also clutched the schoolbag behind her and followed.　　

“Qi-ge, what’s going on, why are you here with this stinky mushroom?” Hu Ying pointed at Qi Wei angrily, and looked at Mu Qi.

Mu Qi hadn’t spoken yet, and Qi Wei immediately exploded. This dull silence while drinking with Mu Qi had already irritated her, and she already could not hold back. There was finally a chance to speak now, so how could she miss it?

She patted the table and stood up, saying, “Who are you talking about? Believe it or not, I’m still the same as last time. I will make you cry!”　　

When she remembered the shame about being beaten on the nose last time, Hu Ying stopped talking, and threw down her school bag shouting, “Come on, let’s see who beats whom to cry.”　　

As soon as Mu Qi looked up, he noticed Su Yanxi standing two meters away. She said to the two people who had already gone crazy and grabbed each other’s hair, “Be careful, don’t hurt good students.”

This was obviously a reminder, but Su Yanxi inexplicably felt that the other party was ridiculing her. She pouted and walked over angrily, holding her school bag. Sitting next to Mu Qi, she took the wine glass, closed her eyes and drank the whole cup.　　

After drinking, her face immediately flushed red, and she bent over while coughing.

This series of actions happened so fast that Mu Qi had no time to react, and the two people who had already grabbed each other’s clothes were dumbfounded.

“I’m drinking. I’m not a good student.” Su Yanxi’s eyes were moist, her cheeks ruddy, as she stared at Mu Qi sternly, and accused the other party of what she had just said.

Mu Qi couldn’t help but laugh, resting her elbow on the table and holding her forehead with her other hand. She laughed in a low voice, to the point where she couldn’t control it anymore.

Hu Ying and Qi Wei also stopped fighting and laughed while clutching their stomachs.

The people at the other tables heard the movement and looked over, but the three of them continued to laugh, regardless. Su Yanxi blushed all over, and even the roots of her ears turned red.

And after saying, ‘I’m drinking. I’m not a good student’, she completely broke into the small group of Mu Qi and the others.

The late autumn morning was still freezing, and the ground was covered with a thin layer of frost.

Mu Qi came out of the community and met Su Yanxi unexpectedly at the entrance. But when she saw a layer of water droplets on her hair, she knew she had been waiting there for a long time.　　

Su Yanxi didn’t know that the tip of her nose was red right now, and the dew on her hair revealed that she had been waiting here for a long time.

“Qi-ge, you got up so early today.” Hu Ying hurried over with her schoolbag, only to find that Little Cutie was there, and immediately said, “Xiao Xixi, you are also very early.”

Su Yanxi blinked her eyes and said without batting an eye, “I just came here when I met Mu Qi.”

Mu Qi, who had seen through her lie, didn’t expose her. As she raised her foot and walked forward, she wondered, ‘Why does this girl come across here over and over again?’　　

Hu Ying didn’t think so much. Instead, she felt that she could meet her here every day. This was simply fate. The more she thought about it, the happier she became. She patted Su Yanxi on the shoulder and said, “Xiao Xixi, you have fate with us.”

Mu Qi listened to their conversation while walking in front, and the corners of her mouth twitched, feeling a slight headache for her innocent friend.　　

Su Yanxi heard it and smiled happily, nodding in agreement as she replied, “I think so too.”

Mu Qi massaged her forehead and quickened her pace.

Arc 1 Chapter 15: The Courtesan’s Daily Life

TL: Vaishu
ED: Anna
QC: Crazyformyself

“What? Go away?”

Qu Feiyun was frightened and felt that the thought itself was quite unfathomable.

“No way.”

Qu Feiyun shook her head firmly.

“You cannot leave.”

“Why?”

Su Xin wondered why Qu Feiyun’s reaction was so big.

Qu Feiqing and Qu Feiyun did not have any familial relationship with each other. Both of them barely even engaged with each other.

When Qu Feiqing set off the bloody storm, Qu Feiyun was still a child. Qu Feiyun’s mother, who was also a concubine, was the type to protect themselves. She cleverly took Qu Feiyun away to avoid these messy things, blending into the background and not drawing too much attention to herself.

Qu Feiyun grew up without danger, but she was still very afraid of her sister, who became the Empress, and at the same time, she admired Qu Feiqing’s courage very much.

Qu Feiyun felt that there would be no woman as strange as her emperor sister in the world.

Regardless of her opinion, Qu Feiyun hoped that Qu Feiqing would be happier. She had realised that if Qu Feiqing was happy, then their lives would be better.

Qu Feiyun knew that after Su Xin arrived, the Empress sister’s mood was much better than before, and the previous aura of lifeless and fearful cold air was no longer there.

If Su Xin left like this, then the Empress would definitely become more frightening than before.

“Is this palace not good, why are you leaving?”

Qu Feiyun asked inexplicably, how many people wanted to enter the palace but didn’t have a chance to, however, this person wanted to leave.

“Is the royal sister treating you badly? If someone else spoke to her like you do, they would have died many times.” 

Qu Feiyun had seen Su Xin and Qu Feiqing together countless times. Yet, every time she saw them, she would sweat for Su Xin, afraid her sister would suddenly take out her blade and kill her. Even when Su Xin offended the Empress, she would not be angry but be happy instead. Even though Qu Feiyun didn’t understand, she knew that Su Xin occupied a large place in Qu Feiqing’s heart.

“Although the palace is beautiful, it is too boring here. I want to go out and explore. Also Princess, I’ve been meaning to ask- Why do you laugh so easily?”

Su Xin couldn’t help but add the question to the last bit of her sentence. She had always wondered why Qu Feiyun would laugh at everything, even if it was something so boring.

“You don’t like laughing, so are you telling me you just want to cry?”

Qu Feiyun shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. She may seem crazy to others, but what about it? She lives her own life and others can’t control it.

“Even if it’s boring… it’s tolerable.”

Qu Feiyun was used to the way of the palace, but she didn’t think there was anything she could do about it.

Once the conversation ended, Qu Feiyun turned around and went to give a brief report to Qu Feiqing.

She tried to tell the conversation in verbatim right that moment, but instantly turned still once she accidentally caught sight of Qu Feiqing’s face.

Qu Feiqing stood on the other side of the room with an indecipherable mask and cold aura.

“You may leave.”

Qu Feiyun withdrew from the inner temple. Qu Feiqing brushed her hands on the small table in front of her.

Qu Feiqing knew this was not betrayal from Su Xin. After all, nothing was ever promised between the both of them.

Su Xin did not say the same scarring words as last time, but what she was about to do now didn’t make Qu Feiqing any happier.

Qu Feiqing let out a sneer, and she broke off a corner of the small table abruptly.

Did she want to just leave this all behind? It won’t be that easy.

When did her palace become a casual place where one could venture in and out freely?

What did Su Xin take her for? She treated Su Xin differently and was kind to her, but this was what she got in return.

Impossible, she would not allow it.

From the moment she had begun her plans for seizing the throne, she knew what she wanted—she had to hold tightly in her hands. Otherwise, she would escape or be taken away from her.

As per her usual habit, Qu Feiqing later went to Su Xin’s quarter for an evening dinner together.

After dinner, Qu Feiqing walked with Su Xin as usual. They walked a few laps in the palace, digested the food, and chatted along the way.

Qu Feiqing did not say anything, so Su Xin spoke first.

“I presume you must have known about it. Qu Feiyun must have told you.”

Su Xin stopped and stood on the small path, looking at Qu Feiqing.

It was evening, and the sun was emitting the last light of the day, dyeing half of the sky red.

It was getting dark.

“You wish to leave?”

Qu Feiqing looked at Su Xin’s eyes. She walked two steps closer and leaned close to Su Xin.

“Well… not really… It’s just that there’s nothing to do here. But if I have you, I will stay.”

Su Xin thought hard for a moment. In fact, she was not tired of the palace yet. In fact, it would be nice if she could go with Qu Feiqing, but that was impossible. She knew that Qu Feiqing couldn’t leave the palace to come with her.

Qu Feiqing was sitting in an extremely dangerous position as Empress. If Qu Feiqin came with her, Su Xin figured that she would just be putting Qu Feiqin’s life in constant jeopardy for her selfish desires. Besides, Su Xin thought she wasn’t someone important for Qu Feiqing to go through such lengths.

[Host… I don’t know whether to praise you for being smart or stupid…]

Fourteen was a system, so it doesn’t understand emotions, but at any rate, it has seen a lot of things from other hosts. It was not stupid and sweet. Anyway, in Fourteen’s opinion, Su Xin’s EQ was absolutely one of the lowest.

Qu Feiqing was at a loss, it’s only been 2 months. How was Su Xin already bored?

Qu Feiqing sighed inwardly, looking at Su Xin’s serious look, she didn’t know what to say.

Qu Feiqing didn’t know whether to say if Su Xin was really ruthless or just dense.

“Then… are you willing to follow me wherever I go?”

Qu Feiqing has dropped her usual title of referring to herself as ‘this emperor’ in front of Su Xin. She felt that the title didn’t represent who she was on the inside.

“Ah… this… not necessarily… after all, there’s nothing between us.”

“Nothing between us?”

Those four words, Qu Feiqing, almost seemed to pop out from between the teeth. They were extremely heavy. Her face was so cold that she caught Su Xin’s wrist.

“Are you saying you have nothing to do with me?”

Qu Feiqing was furious and laughed. Her expression was terrifying, but her voice was smiling, and she said it very lightly.

“Well, we aren’t family but more like friends.”

More like friends with benefits.

Su Xin felt bewildered. Why was Qu Feiqing so angry? It felt like Qu Feiqing couldn’t wait to swallow her alive.

Fourteen, did I do something wrong?

Since Su Xin wasn’t able to work it out, she decided to ask the system for help.

[Host, can’t you really feel that the Queen likes you?]

Huh? What the hell?

“You like me?”

Su Xin asked in surprise.

Qu Feiqing’s face changed. She let go of Su Xin’s hand and took a step back.

“What a joke. How could this dignified emperor like you?”

Qu Feiqing straightened up and gave a cordial smile.

Qu Feiqing felt that in this way, it seemed that she was the only one who had feelings, and she was like a fool, but the other person didn’t care at all.

That would be far too absurd.

Qu Feiqing obviously wanted to hold Su Xin in her palm, but in the face of such a straightforward inquiry, she couldn’t lose her pride.

“Oh, that’s a relief.”

  Su Xin breathed a sigh of relief, for her relationships always felt so solemn.

‘That’s a relief.’

Those three words painfully pounded like a hammer repeatedly in Qu Feiqing’s heart.

“Then can I leave the palace?”

Su Xin immediately asked.

Fourteen wanted to cover its face, and couldn’t look at Qu Fei Qing at all. It felt that the host was no longer sprinkling salt on the human wound. Since the sprinkling of salt was over, she stepped on it with her feet, which was also not enough, and then she stabbed it again.

Su Xin was truly an ignorant person and was easily confused regarding matters of the heart. It made third-wheelers watching want to pull out their hair in frustration while at the same time feeling mournful.

“You can not.”

“Why?”

“You will die.”

“If you leave me, you will die.”

Qu Feiqing glanced over at Su Xin and said seriously.

“Huh?”

Su Xin raised her eyebrows.

“You are already bound to this Empress. You have been here long enough for the people in the imperial palace to recognize you as my person. This Emperor is unknowledgeable of the number of enemies she has. If you went out by yourself, this Empress won’t be able to guarantee your safety from the people who will target you because of me.”

Qu Feiqing’s heart was unchangeable. She didn’t want to threaten Su Xin. She was just stating the facts, but she felt very depressed about whether or not Su Xin would choose to stay.

Su Xin had wanted to say that she was not afraid, then she received a reminder from Fourteen.

[Host, let me remind you that the strength and agility of your body differ from your original body, and the value is much different. This era does not have the cold weapons that you are used to, and the humans in this world have a lot of internal strength.]

 It was better for weak and unarmed people without any ability in martial arts to remain quiet in the corner like chickens, they would not be given the opportunity to defend themselves in close combat.

Su Xin thought silently, contemplating the options.

While doing missions, she always fought alone. She was fast and accurate, always going away with a headshot. However, there was no gun here, and there was no internal force. Now some of her handy cold weapons are only daggers. Would the dagger help in a fight with people? If those people have internal strength, she probably won’t be able to get close enough to win.

“All right… I’ll stay. When will you be completely safe?”

Qu Feiqing shook her head, crestfallen. If she knew despite what was said, Su Xin would still want to leave, then she wouldn’t even have bothered to speak anymore.

Qu Feiqing walked back to Su Xin’s room silently, without uttering a word to Su Xin, then returning to her quarters afterwards. 

“Guess we’re not doing it tonight…”

Su Xin muttered to herself quietly.

Fourteen was praying silently for positivity, patience and for the heavens to shine a light on this dumb host. It felt immense sympathy for the Empress. The host was too dumb in these affairs that it was actually scary. Her ability to wield knives was truly first-class. It was already clear the other person has already suffered a lot of damage, yet it seems like they still have to suffer a little bit more under her knife .

Qu Feiqing returned to her bedroom and stood at the desk, upset.

Su Xin had asked her if she liked her.

How can this Empress like her?

Actually, she likes her a little bit.

Actually, it seems like more.

Actually, a lot.

Qu Feiqing unexpectedly wished she hadn’t become the Empress.

Su Xin made her happy.

You You looked around, and her eyes flickered as they swept past Mu Qing Xue, who had been watching their interactions.

In a lightbulb moment, You-You ran over to Mu Qing-Xue, her tone, expression, and attitude appearing very affectionate.

“Student Qing-Xue, did you also come here to play? It must be fate that we met here, so how about we stay together hmm?”

The girl in her arms was looking very beautiful, and as always, had an effect on her. However, this time it was different. Indeed quite different.

With calm eyes, Mu Qing-Xue looked closely into You-You’s clear and bright eyes, however, her expression was a bit distant. It was as though she was looking through You-You.

Mu Qing-Xue agreed softly, and her lips hooked up into a smile. Even her eyes shone a little.

“Mmm.”

Without noticing the change in Qing-Xue, You-You nodded and quickly turned to Ji Lin and Wei Yang with a smile, “Thank you for hanging out with me today, but I’ll be with Classmate Qing-Xue now, so…”

You guys should hurry up and leave now!

Everyone except Mu Qing-Xue understood the girl’s underlying meaning, and Ji Lin pursed his lips. However, Wei Yang stopped him from saying what he wanted to say.

“Hey Ji Lin, if we don’t leave, won’t we be late?!”

Ji Lin: …….

“I got it.”

With a slight sigh, Ji Lin looked at You-You, then at Mu Qing-Xue, then his gaze shifted back to You-You again.

—— “Don’t play games that are too exciting, don’t eat things that are too spicy or sour, and you’re not allowed to play past nine o’clock in the evening without going back home, you also can’t…”

A long list of things she wasn’t allowed to do was narrated to You-You, who bitterly buried her head in Mu Qing-Xue’s shoulder, reminding herself that she hadn’t heard anything, and that this was only an illusion. Damn fake rascal.

After waiting for the silence, You-You secretly glanced up, and pleasantly found that Ji Lin and Wei Yang were no longer there.

“Classmate Qing-Xue, shall we go back into the haunted house?”

After saying that, without waiting for Mu Qing-Xue;s reply, You-You dragged her over to the stall to buy tickets, coaxing: “The haunted house is really fun, Classmate Qing-Xue, you’ll really like it.” As for Ji Lin, You-You thought to herself that Bai Qu and Ji Lin might…

Hehe, she doesn’t know oh~

Looking at her wrist that was tightly gripped in the girl’s hand, Mu Qing-Xue’s gaze softened for a moment before it became cold and hard.

The haunted house was very familiar to Mu Qing-Xue who had been working in the amusement park for several months. She had even played some of the fake ghosts who You-You was praising several times.

So, when she discovered that You-You’s attention was on the unsightly, bloody, and gory props that were inferior to her, she couldn’t stand it. Walking over to a secluded corner with You-You, she kissed You-You into silence.

Why?!

Why can’t she focus all her attention on me?!

Honestly, why can’t you just look at me?!

Why do you still want to seduce and attract others so unscrupulously?!

Why must you make me angry?!

The kiss was filled with boundless anger, and their lips and teeth intertwined. However, after a while, a faint taste of blood came from You-You’s mouth and wafted into Mu Qing-Xue’s, permeating her tongue.

After tasting You-You, Mu Qing-Xue exerted more force and broke through her tongue. The taste of blood got even stronger.

“Wu Wu… ” 

You-You was very surprised. She had been caught off guard.

At first, she blinked blankly. However, when she came back to her senses, she struggled hard, while asking XI Xi for help.

‘Xi Xi, what’s wrong with Mu Qing-Xue? I don’t like this.’

[Host, the task target is currently emotionally unstable, so comfort her, go along with her, and try not to resist her.]

Seeing that the blackening bar had gone down a little, Xixi spoke more sincerely.

[Seriously host, you must not irritate the task target anymore.]

Irritate? When did she irritate her?

Puzzled, You-You sucked in a deep breath and turned pale. Her tongue had been bitten, and she broke out into a cold sweat.

Seriously, it’s too painful, wifey~

Because Xixi told her to stop struggling, You-You stilled and timidly hugged Mu Qing-Xue’s waist, trying to recall the white lotus appearance in her mind so that she could use it. But at that same time, You-You was already tearing up.

It seemed like she would shed tears at any moment.

It was just a pity that You-You’s docile behavior didn’t restrain Mu Qing-Xue.

She. Was. Addicted. To. This. Girl. And. Her. Beautiful Taste. Unable to extricate herself from her, her reason gradually lost in the fight with lust and desire.

A hand trailed down to the girl’s waist and reached within. You-You was startled, and hot teardrops started streaming down her cheeks.

Some also got dropped on Mu Qing-Xue’s face.

The tears awakened Mu Qing-Xue, and she pulled away from You-You’s face, wiping her tears and asking coldly: “Why are you crying?”

“I’ll take a taxi with Liu Lele and go by myself.” Feeling an inexplicable sense of displeasure, Lin Qinglu put her hand on the handle of the car door in order to leave.

“Eh?”

The handle made a slight creaking sound in Lin Qinglu’s hand.

In a moment of desperation, Song Pianzhen slightly moved from her seat and reached out to stop Lin Qinglu.

As she did this, some of her hair brushed against the tip of Lin Qinglu’s nose. Song Pianzhen had a fragrant aura around her as she moved towards Lin Qinglu. 

Lin Qinglu’s breath got caught in her throat, and she looked at Song Pianzhen breathlessly.

Her eyelashes were soft and curled, the bridge of her nose was straight, and her lips were painted skillfully. Lin Qinglu could even smell her lipstick’s fragrance.

Song Pianzhen’s hand was pressed on the back of Lin Qinglu’s hand, and her palm felt very soft and delicate.

“Ms. Lin, are you trying to cause an uproar in the city center?”

Her voice felt as soft as a feather in Lin Qinglu’s ears.

Later. 

Luo Chun had often talked about the city center, and Lin Qinglu was curious about it. However, when faced with such a crowd, she lost all her energy.

“No.” She said with a low, flat tone. But she felt a tinge of sweetness in her heart.

She didn’t really want to leave on her own. After all, she still had to bring Song Pianzhen back to the crew.

“It’s okay to let the driver go get it.” As she said this, Jian Yixin felt that Movie Queen Lin must not be used to bossing around others’ subordinates. Although it was courteous, it also felt alienating.

Xiao Dong also cleverly added, “That’s right. Just tell me what you want to eat.”

Afterall, he had failed to take Liu Lele away successfully and he hadn’t left. So naturally, Movie Queen Lin also shouldn’t leave. Hence, he obediently followed Song Pianzhen’s flow.

As soon as Xiao Dong made an appearance, the well-dressed senior receptionist immediately gave a respectful bow.

Xiao Dong checked into the restaurant and proceeded to get Liu Lele’s takeout order.

“How can we let you do it in person Mr. Dong?” The receptionist swept his eyes around the room and beckoned a waiter. “Look, this kid is decent and familiar. He can go get it for you.” 

“Well, you better hurry up ” Xiao Dong’s words were crisp and concise.

As Lin Qinglu watched from the sidelines, she thought, The receptionist must remember this driver because his boss is rich and powerful.

‘They all respect the driver so much to the point of flattering him.’

 ‘How powerful is that man?’

When Lin Qinglu was introduced to Song Zhe, after asking her acquaintances about him, her doubts were finally resolved.

“Song Zhe? You’ve met Song Zhe?!”

“Let’s put it this way. If the Song Family wasn’t so low-key, even the richest people in China now — no, the top ten elite richest wouldn’t be able to compare with them. The most popular thing about them is that the Song Family only consists of two siblings; a brother and sister pair. Don’t even start on how clean their reputation is. Even if you try, you can’t find fault with them.”

“Sister, if you marry into such a wealthy family, don’t just talk about the reputation and forget the riches!” 

“What, are you going to marry him?”

Lin Qinglu looked at the mirror as she touched up her lip gloss. Her lips were cherry red and had a pleasing fragrance of freshly ripened fruits.

She looked at her reflection in the mirror, satisfied with it, she then put the lipstick back in the bag.

‘What’s so good about being rich?’

‘It’s good to marry rich.’

When the meal was almost done, Lin Qinglu went to touch up her makeup. Liu Lele followed her.

Half of the delicacies on the table had been carefully prepared by the restaurant, the other half were from a reputable establishment; the restaurant just plated them and served them up.

Song Zhe didn’t forget to help his sister into her waistcoat and only mentioned: ‘Song Yan has done well in the company during the year’. As siblings, they understood this. Song Zhe also remembered to help his sister cover-up. He only said that Song Pianzhen once performed at the company’s annual meeting. Because of the same surname, the two knew each other.

Of course, normal people wouldn’t believe that having the same surname was based on fate. Adding on his undisguised care towards his sister, Song Zhe was sure Lin Qinglu had seen through them.

But he was selfish.

‘Presently, my little sister is working as a substitute for Lin Qinglu in the same crew. I’m doing this so that Lin Qinglu can realize that there’s a Buddha behind my younger sister, so she should take care of her.’

‘Besides, my little sister wants to make new friends. Not to mention money, Lin Qinglu is a Film Queen. It wouldn’t be easy to make friends with her.’

Song Zhe took great pains for his sister. When he was finally left alone, he put down his napkin and said, “Pianzhen, you asked about the endorsement.”

“So fast?” Jian Yixin was surprised. Song Zhe must care deeply for his sister.

“Well, let Li Hua contact HY.” Song Zhe motioned to his special assistant Li Hua to propose what he was talking about.

“Miss, I contacted the HY headquarters in the afternoon. The headquarters informed that they’ve been investigating for a new spokesperson this month. Currently, among the Chinese Actresses, Lin Qinglu is on the list.”

“In addition to Ms. Lin, there are four other actresses. Among them, the most special one is Ye Zixuan.”

Jian Yixin wasn’t surprised.

However, on the surface, she put on an expression of puzzlement, and set aside her silver fruit fork.

“Ye Zixuan? Is she good enough?”

Li Hua turned to Song Zhe and said in a low voice, “President, in the project signed last month, Ji family’s Ji Jing took a step back to discuss this candidate’s place in the selection.”

Song Zhe had a recollection of this.

A company under the Song family wanted to transform into an entertainment company. The best one in the Ji family was Starlight Entertainment, so now they were only left with settlement of the cooperation.

However, for the Song family, this was only a medium-sized project. But Song Zhe was extremely generous to exchange a vacant candidate position for actual benefits. As for who the other party spent a lot of money on, he didn’t care.

HY was one of the world’s six major blue blood brands. It was taken over by the Song Family a hundred years ago, and revitalized. According to common sense, it was the ultimate luxury that second tier actresses could not touch.

But as the female lead of a novel, breaking conventional rules was the norm for Ye Zixuan.

The male lead Ji Jing had gradually fallen in love and used the company’s profits to pave the way for Ye Zixuan. Ye Zixuan got qualifications to enter and be considered as one of  the candidates, and she passed all the way and was selected as the spokesperson for the Asia-Pacific region.

There were only six blue blood brands in total, only one more than the fingers on your hand. Ye Zixuan, the fifth actress in China to receive endorsements, became proud, and succeeded in making her way to the top.

Ye Zixuan’s ability to snatch the endorsement from Lin Qinglu sounded like a fantasy. However, HY belonged to the Song Family.

In the original plot, the Song Family took action to suppress Lin Qinglu. So, even if HY wanted to use her again, they wouldn’t dare to.

One has to admit, Ye Zixuan was really lucky. The whole world paved the way for her!

She didn’t even need to lift a finger before someone already destroyed her formidable enemies.

It was a pity that this time, Jian Yixin would be paving the way for Lin Qinglu.
Jian Yixin looked at Song Zhe with watery eyes, giving off the aura of a pitiful little animal. Then she said, “Is Ye Zixuan going to be tested like the others or has she already been qualified?”

Chapter 4- Copying your homework

TL: Qian

Today was Friday so school was dismissed early in the afternoon, but instead of feeling happy at the short school day, Mu Qi only felt distressed when she thought about the hotel she had to go to tonight. 

“Qi-ge, are you going to Yuan Fu Lounge later?” Hu Ying arrived by her side and looked at her carefully. 

She knows that today Mu Qi cannot be provoked. At best she will laugh it off with you, at worst she’ll do things that’ll make you cry for your mother and father. 

Su Yanxi also noticed Mu Qi’s strangeness today and didn’t dare to talk at this moment, choosing to follow them quietly instead. 

“You guys go back first.” Mu Qi glanced at Su Yanxi behind him, and raised her chin slightly towards her, “You should send her home.” 

“No problem.” Hu Ying patted her chest confidently. 

Su Yanxi wanted to ask Mu Qi what she was going to do at Yuan Fu Lounge, but before she could even open her mouth, she saw Hu Ying blinking rapidly at her and trying to signal something to her. In the end, she could only put away her curiosity. 

“I’m leaving.” Mu Qi didn’t notice the exchange between her two friends and gave them away before getting on the bus. 

Once the bus disappeared from view, Su Yanxi retracted her gaze and looked at Hu Ying who wore a worried expression on her face. She asked in confusion, “Who is she meeting at Yuan Fu Lounge?” 

“Her parents.” Hu Ying didn’t elaborate further. After all, this is her friend’s private matter and it is not her place to say too much. 

Su Yanxi understood that she wasn’t going to get anything else from her and so she didn’t ask anymore. Instead, she looked in the direction Mu Qi left in with a thoughtful expression. 

Meanwhile, Mu Qi sat on the bus, blankly looking at the scenery that flashed by outside her window before arriving at her destination. She got off the bus and looked up, the three characters ‘Yuan Fu Lounge” looking down at her. After standing there for another five minutes, she made her way inside. 

“Welcome.” The receptionist at the front desk greeted her with a smile. 

Although Mu Qi was wearing a school uniform, the receptionist dared not to look down on the young girl. After all, those who can come and eat here were not ordinary people. 

“Box 8 on the second floor.” Mu Qi repeated the text message her father had sent her earlier. Just a few characters, no more than necessary, just what she expected from her father. 

“This way, Miss.” The waiter standing at the top of the stairs said. 

“En.” Mu Qi nodded and walked into Box 8. She was already in a bad mood to begin with and now it was getting even worse. She pressed her lips together and knocked on the door to the room. 

“Come in.” 

Mu Qi opened the door and saw her divorced parents sitting on either side of the round table.

Her dad wore a black suit, his face blank with no anger on it and there was a laptop in front of him. One could clearly tell that he was still working before she came in. 

On the other side was her mother. 

She had just finished shooting a commercial as the makeup on her face had not been removed yet. In order to not be recognized and accosted by her fans, her mother wore sunglasses over her eyes and it made her entire face seem cold. 

Mu Qi sat down in the middle of the two of them as usual and threw her school bag onto one of the side chairs. She took out her phone and refused to look at either of them. 

However, even if she seemed to be solely looking at the phone in front of her, her mind was focused with the two people beside her. 

The two of them had already ordered the food and after a while, the waiter came in to serve them an array of dishes. When the dishes were set on the table, Mu Guoqiang finally spoke: “Let’s eat.” 

Mu Guoqiang is the CEO of the Mu’s Entertainment Group. He has a few first-string stars working for him and her mother had met him when she was an actress working for him. 

However, there were just too many female stars constantly revolving around Mu Guoqiang. There were always one or two who tried to climb into his bed. If it was just once or twice it would’ve been tolerable, but one could only tolerate so many. When the frequency increased, Mu Qi’s mother, Liu Xin, couldn’t stand it anymore. Afterward, there were constant quarreling and cold wars being waged by both sides. 

In the end, the final result was a divorce. 

And Mu Qi, who was caught in the middle, was hurt the most. 

During the meal, the three of them were silent, and the only sounds being made were the sounds of chopsticks clanging against the porcelain bowls. 

In such a depressing environment, even the best appetite will be greatly reduced, let alone Mu Qi’s. 

She put down the chopsticks in her hand, stood up, and said, “I’m full. I’ll be leaving first.” 

“En.” Mu Guoqiang barely spared her a glance. 

“Be careful on your way back.” Although she had divorced the man across from her, Liu Xin still doted on her flesh and blood daughter. She couldn’t bear to treat her daughter so distantly and watched Mu Qi leave with a complicated expression. 

After the door behind her was closed, Mu Qi’s calm expression instantly collapsed and her fists clenched at her sides. She pressed her lips together tightly and flung her school bag over her shoulder before making her way downstairs. 

“Thank you for coming.” 

The receptionist bowed as she walked out. The bustling city outside of the restaurant was full of life but Mu Qi didn’t feel the vibrant liveliness and instead felt depressed at the liveliness outside. She glanced back at the restaurant one more time before finally retracting her gaze and then left without a second glance back. 

Inside the box, both Mu Guoqiang and Liu Xin quickly finished their meals and left separately without saying anything.

Arc 1 Chapter 14: The Courtesan’s Daily Life

TL: Vaishu
ED: Anna
PR: Dark

There’s a saying that- the second time will be somewhat like the first time.

Although the second time is not a familiar road, it is better than being ignorant like the first time.

When the sun was shining, Su Xin had requested for love. The strict Queen thought for a moment, took Su Xin’s hand and left the imperial garden.

“Where to?”

Su Xin suddenly felt rather shy. It really wasn’t a good idea to flirt like that in places where people were present.

[Too wild….]

Fourteen restrained its impulse to preach, and meditated on prosperity, democracy, civilization and harmony in its heart.

Fourteen you can stare at the mosaics and be good.

[Host, please remember your mission.]

I’m aware of it.

Qu Feiqing took Su Xin to her sleeping quarters and waved back all her servants, including the shadow guards who were guarding in the dark.

The red hibiscus covered sheets were warm in the spring festival evening, and this time they weren’t so anxious. Qu Feiqing and Su Xin played with each other, in a pleasant mood.

Usually, undressing is a mundane task, but in the case of this special occasion, this is more sensual.

Su Xin picked a budding flower and gave it to Qu Feiqing. Qu Feiqing accepted it happily and kissed the flower that hasn’t bloomed yet.

The pale red flower was very beautiful, and the petals were very delicate to the touch.

Qu Feiqing chuckled and touched the pretty little flower, and then touched the stamen inside.

Su Xin saw that Qu Feiqing liked her gift, her face was flushed, her body was happy, her hands and feet trembling slightly.

Qu Feiqing lightly unwrapped Su Xin’s bun, which was tied today, and spread her hair out on the bright yellow bed. Qu Feiqing also took off the hairpin on her head, took off her clothes, and was very close to Su Xin.

This time they kissed while sober, and Qu Feiqing felt it all.

Su Xin looked at Qu Feiqing with her eyes open, as their tongues were tangled, and her eyes were cunning.

Qu Feiqing couldn’t help but be lost in Su Xin’s appearance, she separated her lips, kissed Su Xin on the forehead, and then looked from the corner of her eyes, and let out a silent sigh in her heart.

Qu Feiqing knew that she was happy, but she was confused because of this happiness.

It was an extremely unstable feeling, and Qu Feiqing couldn’t put a finger on it, it seemed hazy and unreal.

Love was deep, mysterious and fascinating.

Fortunately, Su Xin was not too lost in happiness, kept a part of her sanity, and asked about her task.

“Your Majesty, am I beautiful?”

When Su Xin said this, she was half lying on Qu Feiqing’s body. Qu Feiqing faced her, feeling Su Xin’s green silk clothes scattered beside her.

Su Xin’s appearance was extremely beautiful. Qu Feiqing felt that nothing could ever be compared to it, but Qu Feiqing also subconsciously felt that if she answered Su Xin’s question, something bad would happen.

Qu Feiqing knew in her heart, nothing would happen, but she just didn’t want to say it.

“Answer me, am I beautiful?”

Su Xin saw that Qu Feiqing watched her silently, not speaking. She was tired of rubbing Qu Feiqing’s body twice, the breath she exhaled scattered on Qu Feiqing’s face. 

Su Xin licked Qu Feiqing’s face like a cat, leaving wet marks.

Qu Feiqing looked at those bright eyes, and couldn’t help but reply:

“Yes, you are most beautiful.”

Su Xin felt satisfied, and had a good time.

Once they finished, Qu Feiqing put on her clothes and planned to deal with the affairs of the court. She was in a good mood and even annoying memorials could be approved now.

Su Xin rolled around on the bed and quickly asked Fourteen about her task progress.

Fourteen, am I finished? Is the task completed?

[Well, it’s done, and the client transaction is being handed over…]

Fourteen knew with certainty that he did not choose the wrong host, and he added points for her performance.

Su Xin’s eyes flashed, and she found that she had returned to the space in between, which should be the same place as the transfer station, and saw a woman with a charming face in ancient costumes.

She had looked at this face in the mirror for more than a year, and suddenly seeing it on someone else’s face, Su Xin felt a little uncomfortable.

“This noblewoman has really completed this slave’s wish… although in a very unexpected way”

Xue Yao’s face was rather strange. She really didn’t expect Su Xin to use this method to complete the task, but she was able to help her escape the brothel and successfully entered the Banquet of the Four Kingdoms. She was also very satisfied.

Although she didn’t get to live the rest of her life by herself, she had escaped from the life she didn’t want to live anyway.

Su Xin’s face was slumped, she was also surprised, she didn’t expect it, but she just watched Qu Feiqing act and went along with it. 

The handover was successful, and Xue Yao’s soul went away.

Su Xin knew that Xue Yao’s soul power would be absorbed by another person, and she would become non-existent.

But well, trading is like that.

System Fourteen, what should I do if I completed a client’s task, but the client doesn’t like it and later regrets it?

[If someone tries something stupid like that, then we will show them what is worse than death.]

Fourteen’s voice was cold. There is no such good thing in the world as letting their trading system and host work for nothing.  If you are obedient, you will disappear without pain. If you are not obedient, then you will suffer until you can no longer stand it and then disappear.

Su Xin returned to Qu Feiqing’s big bed, got up and put on clothes one by one, planning her own future.

She was now free to let herself go, and how this body wants to live in the future will be up to her.

It’s just that ancient life is a bit too boring. For Su Xin, who is accustomed to modern life and obsessed with electronic products, staying here seems to be meaningless.

[The host can return to the original world by committing suicide. After deducting the life value credit, the host now has ten months of life in the real world.]

Fourteen hinted at Su Xin.

Only ten months.

Su Xin shook her head and decided to stay. She who died once knows how precious life is and how happy it is to live.

This body can live to 40 years old, Su Xin still has 26 years of great time ahead of her, how can such a long time be wasted in vain.

Su Xin quickly helped Qu Feiqing  make the bed. The big bed was messed up by the two of them. After Su Xin made it up, she rubbed her arms and walked out, and slowly walked back to her palace.

“Miss.”

Shu Quan saw Su Xin coming back and greeted her.

“Shu Quan get me some pairs of clothes, I will take a bath, and then sleep”

“Hmm… Isn’t it still early? Doesn’t Miss need lunch?”

It’s almost time for lunch now, and Shu Quan had last seen Su Xin only two hours ago.

“I am a bit tired.”

Su Xin walked to the bathing area. Su Xin felt tired after bathing whereas Qu Feiqing even went to court to finish her duties. What she had experienced was different. 

If it was Su Xin’s previous body she would be alive and kicking right now, but this slender body is just too weak. 

After washing herself, Su Xin layed down on the bed, covered with a quilt and went to sleep with her eyes closed.

Shu Quan picked up the clothes next to the bath one by one, put them in the basin in her hand, and planned to wash them.

“Miss….”

Shu Quan lightly sighed, holding Su Xin’s underwear in her hand, gently rubbing her fingertips, and sniffing gently with the tip of her nose.

As if feeling that her actions were too bold, Shu Quan stuffed the underwear back with the other clothes in a little panic, her face flushed.

Meanwhile, wearing her imperial robes, Qu Feiqing gradually became a little absent-minded, thinking about how Su Xin would react.

Qu Feiqing was a very responsible person. After becoming the Empress, this sense of responsibility seemed to be strengthened. Because since childhood, she was influenced by the feelings between her mother and father, Qu Feiqing hated that kind of non-specific feeling, but this society was like this, where the feelings between a concubine and an Emperor don’t matter. She was powerless to change, she could only work hard by herself on the throne.

There were some things that Qu Feiqing felt were very good.

When hugging another person, it doesn’t feel so disgusting anymore.

Qu Feiqing thought, let’s live like this first, at least the other party makes her feel very comfortable and life is no longer so lonely.

Maybe that person really likes her, if she doesn’t love her, how can she beg for pleasure.

Qu Feiqing still thinks like many women. Even if she became an Empress, she still has the fickle heart of a woman. She isn’t a man, so she can’t separate love from lust.

Su Xin felt that it was simply mutual consent of two parties, but Qu Feiqing did not think so. She even thought about their future together.

Su Xin stayed in the palace for another month and found it very boring. This inch of heaven and earth is too small. The palace is very gorgeous, yes, but she wanted to go outside the palace even more.

During this month, Su Xin occasionally played with His Royal Highness, Qu Xing Chen, watching him desperately finishing his studies and learning, and often chatted with Qu Feiyun, who laughed at every small thing, looking at embroidery designs, playing the guqin, and singing songs. 

She and Qu Feiyun would also sneak around the palace together and hide in random places, unnoticed by others..

“Xue Yao, aren’t you a luthier? Play me the Guqin, okay?”

Qu Feiyun came to Su Xin again, swaying Su Xin’s arm and acting like a baby with her.

“Isn’t there a luthier in the palace?”

Su Xin held her chin with one hand and tapped her fingers, with the other hand, on the stone table.

“But I want to hear you play it.”

Qu Feiyun continued to pull Su Xin’s sleeves, Su Xin finally relented, and Shu Quan was pleased to go get the Guqin.

Xue Yao, why are you not afraid of my Empress sister? You are still the first person I have ever seen, who is so close to the Empress  sister.

God knows how scared Qu Feiyun was when she saw Qu Feiqing and Su Xin getting close.

“Is she scary?”

Su Xin felt that Qu Feiqing was pretty good. From the beginning, she was allowed to approach her. Although Qu Feiqing had treated Su Xin as a mentally retarded person before, after doing it once, the other party’s attitude was much better.

Now that Su Xin has done it five, six, seven or eight times, she felt that Qu Feiqing was extremely friendly.

Once Su Xin told her opinion, Qu Feiyun looked at Su Xin in surprise, and nodded her head as if she was a chicken pecking rice, not really understanding anything. 

“The Empress is the scariest person I have ever seen, but she feels a lot more gentle after meeting you, good things do indeed happen.”

Qu Feiyun saw with her own eyes how her Empress sister killed her Emperor brother. In Qu Feiyun’s heart, no one is more terrible than Qu Feiqing.

“But I’m leaving.”

Su Xin smiled.

Being in the palace is too boring, it’s time to say goodbye.

[Host…]

Fourteen hesitated and stopped.

Hmm?

[It’s nothing.]

The system will not interfere with the host’s feelings. Fourteen is now sure that Su Xin is not only low in EQ, but also dull and scary, and has the potential to be a scumbag.

[Host, you really haven’t thought about why the queen has been hitting on you all the time even after having sex with you?]

Fourteen tried to mention something and give hints.

Is it because I am beautiful?

With a grim smile on her icy face, Mu Qing-Xue clenched the flyer in her hand tightly and bit her lower lip harshly in self-abuse.

  A faint, rusty taste spilled in her mouth, and Mu Qing-Xue stretched her tongue out to lick it. The fishy taste made her frown.

Sure enough, her own blood isn’t delicious but…

Hers should be delicious right?

Licking her crimson lips, Mu Qing-Xue stared at a distance not far away. With the figure of a short person standing under the sun—white and glowing, smiling like an angel—the dark thoughts in Mu Qing-Xue’s mind nearly drove her insane.

How naughty.

She’s obviously already hooked up with me, why seduce others?

Is it because I’m not a man? Or is it because I’m not as rich as they are?

Looking down at herself, Mu Qing-Xue’s eyes turned dull as she saw the inferior clothes hugging her body, affirming her thoughts that You-You must be disgusted with her due to her financial status.

“Ha, Ha, Ha”*

*TL/N: This laugh is noramlly a sarcastic or mocking laugh.

A series of cold, eerie laughter flowed from Mu Qing-Xue’s mouth.

She tightened her grip on the flyers until her veins were visible, her knuckles protruding. Her aura became depressed and dull as if it was being restrained for a long time and would just explode any second now.

She obviously knew that the two of them were from different worlds, so why did her heart hurt so bad at that moment?

At first, she treated her as prey that had aroused her curiosity, so why did she feel so much pain because of a mere prey’s betrayal?

“Mu Qing-Xue, you’re really stupid to be fooled by a scheming, two-faced girl. And you even actually want to spend a lifetime with her and work hard to make money so that she can live a good life?”

“Ha, people don’t even care about you anyway, okay?”

 “She’s just playing with you to see you making a fool of yourself and acting like a clown.”

Mu Qing-Xue constantly murmured words of sarcasm and mockery to herself. Then, she suddenly looked at her clear palm and pressed her index finger to her lips.

“As a traitor, you should obediently accept punishment right?”

Anyway, I won’t let her go.

    …

Followed by Wei Yang and Ji Lin, You-You entered the haunted house. You-You didn’t know that Mu Qing-Xue had become blackened. Now there’s another godly brain ability.

Meanwhile, Xixi in the system space:

She shivered as she looked at the ‘blackened’ value which was nearly full.

It’s over… her host is definitely going to be tormented!

【Host…】

‘Xi Xi, the haunted house is so fun! Have you ever played in one?’

Unknowingly having interrupted the system in her excitement, You-You stared at the various gory and bloody scenes in the haunted house without blinking.

Various screams of excitement and fear from men and women assaulted their ears, nearly shattering their eardrums. You-You looked at the headless ghosts, long-tongued ghosts, and bloody staff who suddenly appeared before them, and excitedly grabbed Ji lin’s coat.

‘Xi Xi, Xi Xi, you wait, I’ll have some fun first then come back, hehehehe.’

    【……】

    Host, you’re not going to die if you don’t seek death!

You can’t just focus on playing around and throw the task target to the back of your head ah~ Hello?!

Noticing You-You’s actions, Ji Lin had thought that she was frightened, so he held her wrist.

He pulled You-You into his arms and began to warn the ghosts in a cold voice, filled with displeasure.

“Stop scaring her, otherwise we can have a match right now.”

After a pause, he spoke again. This time, his voice was lighter.

 “I was a champion in national high school sparring, and I’m a karate champion too.”

You-You, Wei Yang: …….

The crowd of fake ghosts and people eating melon seeds: …….. 

Powerful, awesome, and someone who shouldn’t be messed around with, thumbs up!

After being escorted out of the haunted house by staff, the depressed You-You stared at Ji Lin bitterly. This guy is just like that guy Bai Qu…

Ji Lin was a little embarrassed when You-You stared at him like that. He touched his nose as he pondered his abnormal actions today. Normally, he was a cold-tempered person.  Besides Wei Yang, even to the Ji family parents, he had always maintained a calm disposition. He acted as if he had nothing to do with the Ji family despite being their son.

Petting the girl’s head, Ji Lin found the feeling quite comfortable and continued doing it for a while. As he continued to rub her head, his heart became a little tender.

“Ahem, are we going to the restaurant next?”

Seeing Wei Yang’s strange look towards him, Ji Lin stiffly took back his hand silently.

Even his voice was deliberately cold and indifferent.

No, I don’t want this!

You-You secretly rolled her eyes and thought to herself that she must get rid of Wei Yang and Ji Lin. Otherwise, how would she be able to play properly at all?

Chapter 3 – Skipping Class

TL: Qian

“Ah!” 

When Mu Qi passed the ball to Hu Ying, she heard a shout behind her. She turned around to see Su Yanxi crouching on the ground with her hands clutching her head. 

She didn’t want to bother with this girl, but when she saw the girl’s red eyes that looked directly at herself she could only sigh helplessly and said a few words before walking over. 

Class President, Xiao Nan, pushed up his glasses and also walked over to check on the situation. 

“Student Su, are you okay?” Xiao Nan asked as she appeared in front of Su Yanxi.

Mu Qi squatted in front of the girl and tore away the hands covering the girl’s forehead. She frowned when she saw that the girl’s forehead was bleeding and sighed again. She then turned around so that her back was facing the girl and said, “Get on.” 

Su Yanxi looked at the other person’s back and climbed on without any hesitation while the corners of her lips lifted up subtly, 

“Student Mu…please take Student Su to the infirmary. I will explain to the teacher about your absence.” Class President Xiao Nan said solemnly as he pushed up his glasses again. 

The corners of Mu Qi’s lips twitched, “Thanks, Prez.” After saying her thanks, she lifted herself and the girl up and walked away. 

Class President Xiao Nan watched them leave with a serious and dignified face. 

Hu Ying patted him on the shoulder, “Hey, Prez, do you want to play some basketball?” 

“I don’t know how to play.” Xiao Nan glanced at the basketball in her hands. 

“Oh, then I guess I’ll just play with the others then.” After saying so, Hu Ying turned around and walked back towards the court with an easygoing smile on her face. 

Their Class President is like a little old man, always so serious day in and day out. It was rather fun to tease that stiff-faced boy. 

Xiao Nan looked at the basketball while in deep contemplation. 

Meanwhile, on the other side. 

“After the nurse bandages your wound, make sure to stay in the infirmary. I’ll be going out for a while. If anyone asks, tell them I went to the toilet.” Mu Qi said as she carried the girl on her back. 

“Are you going to skip class?” Su Yanxi asked faintly. 

“What’s it to you?” Mu Qi retorted impatiently. 

Su Yanxi’s mouth flattened into a straight line and then quietly studied the other person’s face from the side. She thought about something and then leaned close to the other person’s ear, “Can I come?”

Mu Qi glanced at her in surprise and saw the expectant look on the girl’s face, but then said without hesitation, “No!” 

“Then I will tell the teacher that you’re skipping class.” Su Yanxi replied. 

“Fine, guess I’ll let you down now then.” Mu Qi gestured that she was going to drop the girl. 

 Su Yanxi quickly wrapped both of her legs around Mu Qi’s waist and then tightly hooked her arms around the other party’s neck. She was afraid that the other party would really drop her and then quickly said, “Don’t let go! I won’t tell them anything.” 

“En.” Only after getting what she wanted did Mu Qi straighten back up and continue walking again with a smile on her face. 

After arriving in the infirmary, the nurse disinfected Su Yanxi’s forehead with medicine while Mu Qi stood quietly to the side. 

When the alcohol touched her wound, Su Yanxi’s face twisted with obvious pain. 

“Alright, don’t let any water get on the wound and as long as you….” The nurse listed off a bunch of instructions before leaving the two of them behind in the infirmary. When the nurse was no longer in sight, Mu Qi made her way to the door. 

“Are you leaving now?” Su Yanxi’s forehead was still hurting, but she was more concerned about Mu Qi’s movements than her pain. 

“I’m not taking you with me.” Mu Qi paused and realized that her words sounded a little too harsh and then continued, “I’ll bring you back something delicious to eat.” After saying those words, she left without another glance. 

Su Yanxi: “…..” 

“She was so much cuter when she was younger!” Su Yanxi complained in a quiet voice. 

Mu Qi climbed over the wall that wasn’t covered by the school’s cameras and then realized she didn’t have anywhere to go. 

However, when she thought about how she would see those two tonight, she couldn’t stay at school for another moment. She wandered down the currently empty streets and decided to enter an internet cafe that was located not too far away from the school. 

“Manager, give me a computer.” Mu Qi slammed a ten yuan bill onto the table and then swept a gaze around the cafe. When she saw a certain person, her lips twitched slightly. 

“Here you go.” 

Mu Qi grabbed the key card and then walked over to the corner. She pulled out a chair and then sat down. 

“Fuck! Kill him, kill him! We can’t just let him steal all of our equipment!” 

Mu Qi glanced at that person’s computer screen and smiled to herself. 

“What are you looking at-” The person uttered only a few words when she saw that it was Mu Qi. She cursed a few more times and then stood up to face Mu Qi. 

“Don’t be so agitated. What’s with all the cursing? Sit down.” Mu Qi patted the other party’s shoulder and said.  

“Why are you here!” Qi Wei stared at her with widened eyes, clearly surprised at seeing Mu Qi here. 

“Why can’t I be here?” Mu Qi lit a cigarette calmly and replied. 

“Fuck!” Qi Wei cursed under her breath again and then responded to the voices of her teammates coming from her earphones, “You guys keep playing, I got some business to take care of.”

“Tsk, can’t you fix that attitude of yours?” Mu Qi turned on her own computer, and then tilted her head to look at the other person’s screen. Seeing the not at all original name of the party, she choked on her own saliva. After coughing for a long while, she said with a smile, “Your gamertag is quite interesting!” 

“Stop being so weird!” Qi Yi glared at her. 

“Wanna fight?” Mu Qi raised an eyebrow. 

Flames instantly ignited in Qi Wei’s eyes as her face brightened and she rolled up her sleeves and stood up, “If you wanna fight, let’s fight then! Today, this old lady will beat you up until you’re on your knees begging for mercy!” 

 Mu Qi clicked on her game and then looked up at Qi Wei, “Then I’ll see you in the game.”

Qi Wei: “…..” 

“….I’ll be there in a sec.” Qi Wei rolled her sleeves back down and then sat down again. She clicked out of her current game and then clicked on the League of Legends icon. 

“Solo?” Mu Qi glanced over at her. 

“Come at me!” Qi Wei clicked furiously on her mouse, like she was going to smash her mouse into pieces in the next moment. 

Ten minutes later, Mu Qi defeated Qi Wei so badly that the other didn’t even have the strength to fight back. 

“Again!” Qi Wei glared at her in dissatisfaction. 

“Sure.” Mu Qi smiled carefreely and then started another game. 

This time, the game finished in eight minutes and Qi Wei began to question the meaning of life. 

“Again!” 

“Ok.” 

And so the two of them continued to play solo games until unknowingly a group of people had gathered behind them. After Qi Wei lost again for the umpteenth time, she turned around and saw the crowd behind her. She immediately grew angry and said furiously, “What are you looking at! Beat it!” 

The crowd hurriedly dispersed under her heated gaze.

“Why are you always so violent?” Mu Qi said as she leaned back in her chair. 

 Qi Wei glared at her and then left without a second glance. 

Mu Qi shrugged and then in her boredom, started watching a movie. 

About halfway through her movie, her cell phone vibrated a couple of times. She unlocked her phone and saw that it was Hu Ying who had texted her. The messages said that if she doesn’t come back soon, Old Man Li will have a ‘talk’ with her. 

Mu Qi returned to the school using the same route from earlier, and saw Old Man Li in the distance. The old man didn;t essay anything and then turned his head and left while holding a thermos in his hands. 

Mu Qi: “….” 

“Annoying.” Mu Qi scratched her head and then put her hands in her pockets as she slowly trudged up the stairs. 

“Qi-ge, you’re back, where did you go?” When Hu Ying saw her, she immediately circled around Mu Qi and began asking questions. 

“Went out to play for a while.” Mu Qi walked over to her seat and was about to sit when she stopped, “Where is she?” 

“Eh?” Hu Ying didn’t understand the question at first and then blinked, “Oh, she hasn’t come back after you carried her to the infirmary.” 

“She hasn’t returned?” Mu Qi turned around and went towards the door. 

“Qi-ge, where are you going?” Hu Ying shouted after the leaving figure. 

“I’ll be back soon.” Mu Qi left the classroom. 

She thought to herself, was the girl still resting in the infirmary? Then she remembered she had said she would bring back some delicious food and pressed a hand to her temple as she felt her head begin to ache. 

Forget it, let’s get that person back in class first. 

“Where are you going?” Li Wei, her homeroom teacher, came out of the teacher’s office and called out after her. 

“I’m going to the infirmary.” After saying so, she made her way to the infirmary. 

She’s already on her teacher’s blacklist, so it doesn’t matter if she’s tardy to class again. 

She returned to the infirmary and saw that the girl was still lying on the bed. When the girl saw Mu Qi, her eyes lit up, “You’re back!” 

“Why didn’t you return to class?” Mu Qi asked her.　　

“If I go back to class, that’ll expose you and then you’ll get in trouble.” Su Yanxi said.　

Mu Qi blinked and then frowned, “Are you feeling better now? Can you go back to class?” 

“Yeah.” Su Yanxi immediately jumped up from the bed and then glanced at Mu Qi’s empty hands. 

“What’s wrong?” Mu Qi looked down at her hands. 

“Where’s the food?” Su Yanxi asked. 

“I’ll make it up to you later.” Mu Qi’s face darkened. So this transfer student is a bit of a glutton. 

“Oh, as expected, you forgot.” Su Yanxi whispered. 

Mu Qi heard every word and her face darkened even more.

Arc 1 Chapter 13: The Courtesan’s Daily Life

TL: Vaishu
ED: Anna
PR: Dark
QC: Vaishu

Su Xin followed suit and saluted as well. Qu Feiqing made eye contact with Qu Feiyun, her eyes flashing with a hint of annoyance, and looked at Su Xin with a calm face, feeling slightly jealous. 

Qu Feiqing remembered Su Xin’s unfinished words that night, feeling as though she had a thorn in her heart, she felt uncomfortable and alarmed when she thought of it.

Qu Feiqing looked at Qu Feiyun, who was sitting obediently again. Her imperial sister’s temperament was a little bit jumpy, just like an energetic rabbit that could never stop and was jumping all the time. Qu Feiyun lived quite a carefree life and was very indulgent.

Qu Feiqing didn’t meddle in Qu Feiyun’s everyday affairs. As long as she didn’t do anything  out of line, Qu Feiqing let her be.

Qu Feiyun was sixteen years old, about the same age as Su Xin.

Qu Feiqing was seven years older than Su Xin, and Su Xin had rejected Qu Feiqing that day. Although Qu Feiqing knew that she was prettier and better than Qu Feiyun, it wasn’t impossible for  Su Xin to be attracted to Qu Feiyun was it?

Su Xin looked at the Empress gloomily, with raised eyes and Qu Feiqing looked back at her with the same gloomy eyes filled with doubt.

“Qu Feiyun, you are a princess and your appearance is really out of royal demeanor. Go back and copy the “Female principles and commandments for women” twice, and show them to me.”

Qu Feiyun wanted to shrink herself to the size of a quail in front of her sister’s sight.

“Empress Sister…I know what I did was wrong… but can’t adults have an exemption for copying so many times?”

Qu Feiyun internally grieved, she mainly used her free time to indulge herself in laughter and fun in the imperial gardens. Who would have known that she would be so unlucky to cross paths with the Empress, who also came out to relax today, and now she can’t laugh anymore.

“Do you wish to copy it three times?”

Qu Feiqing didn’t like it when others tried to bargain their way with her.

“Chen Mei understands, so I shall go and copy down the book with great concentration.”

Qu Feiyun lowered her head and weakly followed Qu Feiqing’s orders.

Two books, two times each, Qu Feiyun felt as though her hands were going to break at the mere thought of it.

“Honoured musician, I’m leaving now. Till we meet again.”

Qu Feiyun waved to Su Xin, and walked out in a dignified manner.

Su Xin understood the intimidating aura Qu Feiqing emanated to the people in the palace, she seemed to be feared by all. 

 Even the nephew was so sensitive to her breath that he couldn’t help but shiver when she approached.

And when Qu Feiyun heard Qu Feiqing’s voice, her expression of carefree laughter was reduced  in a second and she put on a serious mask.

“This Empress has underestimated you, in just a few days, you have met my nephew and sister, and even become familiar with them.”

Qu Feiqing walked into the pavilion and sat where Qu Feiyun had just sat, very close to Su Xin.

“It is all because of your Majesty’s blessing. If your Majesty hadn’t brought me here, how could they be interested in me?”

Su Xin praised Qu Feiqing, her tone quite cheerful. 

“As I said, I am only here for your Majesty and no one else is my focus.”

Su Xin looked at Qu Feiqing with a sincere expression.

Qu Feiqing slightly opened her eyes, feeling like needles were pricking her heart.

She wondered: why did she bring this girl into her territory?

It was because of Su Xin’s smile.

It was a  smile exuding an aura similar to hers, but Qu Feiqing never saw it again.

A horrible idea entered Qu Feiqing’s head, was it because of that night that she was more guarded with her feelings?

Qu Feiqing didn’t care about it but she couldn’t take Su Xin’s feelings lightly. 

“Why did your Majesty come out to stroll around this time?”

Su Xin supported her head on her hands and looked at Qu Feiqing. The Imperial Garden looked as beautiful as ever and was indeed made for royalty. It was well maintained, and it made people happy when they looked at it.

Qu Feiqing hadn’t intended to voice her problems. After all, it was useless to talk about it, but seeing Su Xin’s appearance, Qu Feiqing had the sudden impulse to confide in her.

“Those officials want to force this Empress to take on an Imperial concubine.”

Su Xin imagined a group of enchanting men who waved their handkerchiefs proactively at a cold-faced Qu Feiqing. Su Xin couldn’t bear to look directly at Qu Feiqing and laughed out loud.

“Are you happy?”

Qu Feiqing’s voice became colder the less jealous Su Xin was. 

“It’s hard to imagine.”

Su Xin shrugged. The probability of Qu Feiqing taking a concubine, according to the information she knew, was zero.

It was impossible for Qu Feiqing to let a man touch her, afterall it was her worst fear.

Qu Feiqing’s name as the first beauty in the Four Kingdoms was not a mere name. She had been very beautiful since she was a child. She was very pretty and cute, resembling a small dumpling, so she became very popular.

But she stayed in the cold palace, led a neglected life and dressed in a very old fashioned way. 

One day, a six year old Qu Feiqing ran out of the cold palace to play, when she bumped into an imperial guard, who was a pedophile. The guard asked her where she was from and Qu Feiqing answered that it was one of the palaces. The guard had thought that she was a girl raised by one of the palace maids who served in the palace. He seized Qu Feiqing roughly, wanting to be lustful after seeing her childlike innocence.
Meanwhile Qu Feiqing’s mother had been looking for her for a while and came outside. To her horror she saw Qu Feiqing vigorously struggling as a man held her down.

That was the first time Qu Feiqing saw blood. Qu Feiqing’s mother did not want to talk about what happened. After all, even if she was a child, Qu Feiqing still had a reputation to maintain. 

Qu Feiqing’s mother calmly and quietly killed the guard and left with Qu Feiqing.

Qu Feiqing always remembered what her Mother told her at that time. As she was trembling in her Mother’s arms, she had said, “Men are very, very filthy.”

Since then, Qu Feiqing has become more indifferent and began to hate all the men in the world.

“If you are unwilling to, then simply don’t marry.”

Su Xin said plainly to Qu Feiqing, once she had laughed enough.

“You are the Empress, the most powerful, why should you listen to them if you don’t want to.”

Su Xin poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qu Feiqing.

When you are the Ruler, you can simply kill and take or leave it.  No matter what, everything is up to you. 

Qu Feiqing smiled, sipping the tea in the teacup.

The flowers in the Royal Garden were nothing compared to Qu Feiqing’s smile. Su Xin tilted her head and looked at her in fascination. 

“Your Majesty, you are very good looking.”

Qu Feiqing put down her teacup in surprise and accepted the sudden compliment.

Qu Feiqing saw Su Xin leaning towards her side and slowly inching closer towards her. Qu Feiqing could smell the faint fragrance of her body and a lighter smell of medicine.

Soon they were both very close to each other and Su Xin leaned close to Qu Feiqing’s ear.

“Your Majesty, I want to sleep with you again.”

“You make me feel so good. I want to take care of you.”

“And I want to hold you and also be held by you in return.”

 […… Being so lewd early in the morning, makes the world go downhill]

Fourteen was shocked by Su Xin’s shamelessness. How can anyone say such lines so naturally?

Feeling the moist breath in her ear, and her heart beating like a drum, Qu Feiqing squeezed the corners of her clothes tightly.

Su Xin finally moved away from Qu Feiqing’s ear and leaned in front of her again, winking at her.

Qu Feiqing laughed, with a dangerous aura surrounding her.

Qu Feiqing gritted her teeth and in her heart, she thought internally that this time Su Xin delivered herself to her door. If Su Xin says the same heartless thing as last time, then she shouldn’t blame Qu Feiqing if she gets angry.

The present Empress Qu Feiqing was just as narrow minded as Su Xin.
