Chapter 80 Why do we need women to live together? [Read more]

The two banks were covered with snow as the passenger boat drifted downstream. The scenery outside the cabin window was so pleasant that it seemed to make the wine in the glass even more intoxicating.

"Come again——"

The call for drinking comes again.

As her white neck tilted back, she drank the glass of wine, her peach blossom eyes were so moist that it was captivating, but the man licked the residue on his red lips without realizing it.

"His ha——"

Shi Fengguan let out a long sigh and leaned back comfortably on the couch. When he looked over again, he saw that the young man opposite him had looked away for some reason.

"how?"

His eyebrows raised provocatively: "Is that not enough?"

The young man actually nodded as if admitting defeat.

I can’t drink any more. If I drink more, it will taste even better to my good friends.

Shi Fengguan, who had recovered after a rest, was defeated. He looked at him with more disdain: "You didn't get in last night? You're not good enough. You're always making a fuss, but you can't drink or pick up girls."

"..."

It would have been better if he didn't say it. Once he said it, Wei Mingqi became even more depressed.

He originally thought that this official business trip would help him get rid of the pain of the "legacy", but because of a foul-mouthed remark before departure, the woman now became polite and frightening to him.

Not to mention the swelling from practicing spear fighting, I couldn’t even pull her hands.

The depression between his brows was visible to the naked eye. Shi Fengguan felt a little stuffy in his chest for some reason, so he subconsciously picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and gave him some advice:

"If you can't do it, just give in. Your face is worthless anyway."

"..."

Wei Mingqi was silent for a moment and took a sip of wine, then put down his hand and said, "How do you know I haven't given in?"

"..."

Indeed, I overestimated him.

After holding it in for a long while, Shi Fengguan couldn't help but glance over with his peach blossom eyes: "Do you really want to be happy?"

?

Wei Mingqi raised his head, only to see the person on the couch opposite him also looking at him. Her beautiful peach blossom eyes were heroic and charming, moist and seemed to be able to captivate the soul -

As he watched, he nodded subconsciously.

Shi Fengguan's face was visibly red, and he cursed, "Why are you looking at me? If you're desperate, go to a brothel. If you don't dare to go, I'll take you with me!"

Wei Mingqi looked at her curiously and asked, "You speak so skillfully, have you been here before?"

"That--"

Shi Fengguan swallowed the word "of course" halfway through.

In the past, when she was walking on thin ice in Xifu, her colleagues had doubted her, but they either did the same as they did to Wei Mingqi, or they just went there for real. She was not unfamiliar with brothels.

"No, how did you get through—"

Wei Mingqi became interested and didn't care about the little tacit understanding anymore. He came to the table and asked, "Can it really grow another one? I thought it was——"

"What is it!"

Shi Fengguan's inner feelings were written all over his face, and his face was red as if he had drunk fake wine: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll smack you in the face later!"

"..."

Wei Mingqi was really frightened.

Apart from anything else, he didn't want to experience the eye breakdown experience again. After so many times, the fake brothers became real brothers. When he was honest, Shi Fengguan felt uncomfortable. After self-reflection, he realized that what he said just now was indeed inappropriate, so he looked away:
"Just hug and rub against me, and then say that I'm not good at that. Do you really want to do it? Just let others know that I have it."

After listening to her, Wei Mingqi wanted to give her a thumbs up, but after thinking about it, he raised his glass: "These past few years have not been easy, and it has been hard for you. Now that the clouds have cleared and the sun has risen, it's worth a toast."

"..."

Shi Fengguan blinked her peach blossom eyes. There are some things that you don't notice unless someone says them, but when they are really mentioned, a bitter and bitter feeling surges up in her heart.

They were all children of the world, and she had already said the words of thanks before and didn't want to say them again. She just raised her glass and clinked it with his. They both drank from the glasses, and everything was said without saying anything.

Being a little drunk, Shi Fengguan turned his head to look out the window, his eyes blurred as he said, "I don't know how long it has been since I last saw the outside world. When I was your age, I was always afraid that I would never be able to leave that city, but I was always thinking about my aunt. The longer I waited, the more afraid I became, and the more afraid I became, the longer I waited."

The days of living in fear are hard to bear.

After Wei Mingqi spent a few days like that, he never wanted to experience that kind of life again. Feng'er was even more miserable than him, much more miserable.

"Your aunt is out. You can go wherever you want from now on."

As Wei Mingqi spoke, he thought of Aunt Shi again: "Your aunt has endured hardship in the palace for more than ten years. It is not convenient for her this time. You can take her out for a walk in the future."

"..."

Speaking of Shi Fengque, Shi Fengguan seemed to be hesitant to speak, and after a long while he finally said, "My aunt seems a little afraid of you."

"fear me?"

Wei Mingqi didn't react at first, but then he remembered the several times he was teased when they first met, and his expression suddenly became strange.

"...Wei Mingqi."

Shi Fengguan, who was originally quite confident, saw that his expression was not right, and his peach blossom eyes suddenly became nervous and suspicious: "You didn't bully my aunt?"

Unlike Yu Qing, Wei Mingqi usually likes to tell little lies. Hearing this, he immediately said, "No, she is my aunt. I can't bully her for your sake. I always protect her in front of outsiders."

Shi Fengguan now only trusts two people. Although the young man in front of her is sometimes not quite right, he has already occupied one of her hearts. If he says no, then she will no longer doubt it.

"She's probably used to being alone."

Her peach blossom eyes drooped with a little disappointment: "I have told her several times, but she still doesn't dare to go out on weekdays. I accompany her but she still says she is uncomfortable outside. It's the same even at your house. She is afraid of everyone except me and Daoshou Xie."

"..."

She said she was used to being alone, but in fact, she had been in the cold palace for too long and no one cared about her, so she had psychological problems with the outside world.

"You don't have to worry. She just hasn't adjusted to it yet."

Wei Mingqi recalled what happened before and comforted her, "My aunt even reads pornographic books, how big of a problem can it be?"

"..."

Shi Fengguan wanted to scold him harshly, but after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense.

Should I buy more of that stuff for her to see in the future? That would be so embarrassing.

His face was getting hot unconsciously. Shi Fengguan took a sip of the wine and said with a glance: "You also know what those things of yours are? Do you really have any ideas about your master?"

Even though everyone knew it, he still had to deny it firmly before the mission was accomplished: "What nonsense! My master wants me to get married quickly. I am worried about this matter now and am still looking for someone."

Shi Fengguan didn't believe a word of this.

But when she heard the word 'marry', her palms started to sweat for some reason: "With your bad temper, no woman would be willing to live with you."

"Let's not force this."

Wei Mingqi was not annoyed at all, and smiled at her casually: "Why do we have to rely on women to live together? We get along well as brothers."

Shi Fengguan's back straightened up in panic, his hands clenched on his knees, and he almost didn't dare to look at the smile on the other side:
"...Wei Mingqi, don't try to make fun of me."
