Chapter 22: Unilateral Romance

Translator: LiamHW

Song Qinghan couldn’t even resist since Wu Dahu reinforced his strength.

“It’s okay for him, dear. I got myself heated, it is also good for me to share some for you!”

Hearing that, Song Qinghan gave up his resistance. After his feet were completely warmed up, his consciousness gradually fainted and he fell into his sweet dream.

The next morning, Song Qinghan found out that he was no long facing against the wall featuring endless coldness, but the masculine and handsome appearance of Wu Dahu instead.

All of a sudden, he got his face blushed with a red-rimmed appearance, he closed his eyes slightly and just half opened to observe carefully the man by his side.

Wu Dahu got an appearance not that kind of most handsome, but he featured a angular face with a clean-cut chin line. It would be thanked to the long experience of hunting in the mountain for years that made him beautiful as a flawless jade, chanting others’ attention without moving off.

Just as Song Qinghan’s sight gradually fell downward, Wu Dahu suddenly opened his eyes with a hoarse voice that had yet to be fully awake.

“You’re awake?” said Wu Dahu.

Song Qinghan then quickly opened his eyes wide and nodded awkwardly, an expression of guilty showed up on his face as if he had done something shameful and wrong.

Wu Dahu got up and off the bed in a quick move, getting his shoes on and moving outward.

“I got up late today. I’m going to make breakfast now.” said Wu Dahu.

Without Wu Dahu, the bed seemed to be fallen into an endless emptiness, with Song Qinghan’s heart empty as well.

Well, he now got no reason to stick to the bed, he then sat up lazily, and then went to clean up his face and walked straight to the kitchen.

Wu Dahu noticed that Song Qinghan was sticking to him, he thought he was already starved and then scratched his own head with embarrassment, saying, “I am rather picky about beds, so yesterday I got myself awake till midnight, and got up late the morning. Breakfast is ready, just wait for some seconds.”

Song Qinghan returned to the room obediently trying to mull over what Wu Dahu said. it wasn’t a truth that Wu Dahu was picky about beds, he just stayed up late to warm his feet up. That was why he got himself still awake at midnight. Wasn’t it?

After the two finished their breakfast, Wu Dahu saw that it was not too late and said, “I’m going to the town again today and I will check out the feedback of the folks about the seasonings. It shouldn’t be any oxcart outside now, maybe you can stay at home today. Is that okay?”

Although Song Qinghan was a little reluctant, he knew that he could not follow him to the town in such an inconvenient situation, nor would he impede the man to earn the living. He nodded obediently, saying, “It’s fine, just go, I won’t open the door for everyone.”

Wu Dahu noticed that Song Qinghan had become rather obedient since last night. He got confused about that but anyway, he got his nerves loosened finally.

“Alright, then I’ll leave now. If I haven’t come back before noon, you can warm up the rest of the food I prepared already in the pot.” said Wu Dahu.

“Okay.” answered Song Qinghan, as he saw Wu Dahu left the house, he got the latch locked and went back to the bed.

It was not long after Song Qinghan fell asleep that a gush of knocking sound came from the door, with a familiar voice.

“Brother Dahu, are you home? I am coming back for the charge money!” gushed the man outside the door.

Song Qinghan realized that it was Qian Baozi outside. He hesitated for a while but still opened the door.

When Qian Guanzi noticed that it was Song Qinghan coming and opening the door, he tried to look inside for searching, asking, “Isn’t Brother Dahu home? Did he go to the mountain?”

Song Qinghan smiled and nodded, explaining, “He went to the town for a business!”

Ming You patted himself on the thigh, saying, “Oh yes, is he heading to sell the stuffs you gave me yesterday? Those are kind of treasure. My husband love the fruit tea so much and he asked me to come over and buy more. Qinghan, will you sell more for me? I got money here!”

After saying that, he thought Song Qinghan would never accept the money from him, so he took out his purse and waved it in front of Song Qinghan in advance, aiming to show that he got adequate money for purchasing.

Since Song Qinghan knew about the past and the closed tie between him and Wu Dahu, he naturally wouldn’t refuse the money for paying back the favour yesterday. He nodded with a smile, saying, “Alright, come inside and have a sit. I’ll get you another bag of fruits.”

Qian Baozi hesitated for a moment. What he worried was that if he went inside, it probably would ruin Song Qinghan’s reputation. But another concern came to his mind that Song Qinghan probably wasn’t able to carry such a bag of fruits. In the thought that he could enter the room in a short time and nothing would happen, he pulled up his legs and was about to enter the yard, saying,  “I’ll go get it. Just tell me where the fruits are placed!”

Song Qinghan didn’t think too much and pointed to the kitchen, answering, “It’s in a corner of the kitchen. You’ll see a big bag there.”

Since there existed not that much stuffs in their house, Qian Baozi found the bag of the fruits with just a glance. He carried it on his shoulder and realized that it wasn’t as heavy as he imagined. He opened the bag and asked, “Qinghan, how much for this total bag? Just tell me the true price, and be a fair businessman. Don’t even cut the price for me!”

Song Qinghan paused for a moment, saying, “I sold one bag for Doctor Luo in the Huichun Shop for ten silver coins, if you want them, I will charge you for five silver coins. How do you think?”

For one reason why he didn’t charge him in accordance to the request of Doctor Luo, he knew that Doctor Luo was causally purchasing the fruit for a medical function trial, so when he came back for another purchase, it wouldn’t be the same price. For another, the family of Qian Baozi was his nearby neighbor,

Beyond Song Qinghan’s expectation, Qian Baozi took out one ingot and some silver fragments directly and put them on the chair, saying with a smile, “Qinghan, don’t worry about the financial situation of mine. What Doctor Luo was willing to purchase must be something valuable.”

Song Qinghan didn’t expect that the man in front would be so nice treating others. He smiled and nodded, saying, “That’s for sure. As long as you want it and we get, we will definitely serve you as the priority.”

Hearing that, Qian Baozi couldn’t help but smile with his two eyes full of joys. As he was about to wave his hand and say goodbye, a harsh voice came from the door all of a sudden.

“Who the heck are you? What do you want from Han?”

Song Qinghan got his face sullen since he noticed that it was Lin Dafu showing up again without any invitation. He frowned while saying, “What now? Why are you coming again? Didn’t you promise that you wouldn’t come anymore?”

Lin Dafu suddenly turned around and spoke to the door side, “Come in.”

After that, a man in a red mantle featuring a good-looking yet cold face walked in slowly, with his face full of depression and grievance.

Qian Baozi observed carefully at these two strange-acting people. Obviously, he didn’t figure out what was going on currently, but he still put down the bag of fruits on his shoulder, walking towards Song Qinghan and getting himself ready to protect him.

Wu Dahu wasn’t here now, so it fell to him to safeguard his brother’s husband.

Lin Dafu glanced at Qian Baozi with his eyebrows frowned. He thought that it was none of business to this outsider, but since Song Qinghan didn’t say anything to chase him away, he couldn’t say anything.

When his gaze was on the handsome man, he suddenly turned himself into a grieve and sullen figure, saying with a low voice, “Huailing, bow yourself and apologize to Han!”

The young man raised his head and looked at Song Qinghan.

Song Qinghan got himself shocked just looking at the eyes of the young man. It seemed that his eyes were fulfilled with grievance, reluctance and rage. The mixed emotion hid deeply in those perfect looking pupils.

HuaiLing? It was such a familiar name for Song Qinghan. Wasn’t… wasn’t he the one who drugged him? That was Lin Dafu’s husband!

Song Qinghan glanced at Lin Dafu and had no idea what he was going to do.

While he was puzzled, Huailing spoke up, saying, “Song Qinghan, why aren’t you dead?”

It turned out that Lin Dafu’s face got rather sullen and he walked to Huailing, reached out and slapped him on the face, shouting, “You such a jealous bitch. Do you want a divorce with me?”

How could Huailing bear such a slap with a great strength? After that slap, he was hit to the ground with a string of blood flowed out from his mouth.

Huailing slowly raised his eyes and stared at Lin Dafu with a rage. He then shouted out with anger, “So you bring me here today aiming to claim a divorce with me?”

Lin Dafu was stunned standing there, the divorce announcement in his hands seemed to be burning.

He avoided the topic, saying, “Didn’t you still notice your crime till now? And feel no regret? If it wasn’t you, how would Han be in such a situation like today?”

Huailing squinted at Song Qinghan, and sneered, saying, “He’s just a cunning bitch who warms up your bed. I’m the center one while he was just a concubine, of course I have the right to punish him, don’t I? Well, he got such a good luck that he still got someone to be taken care of since his pregnancy. What a fool the man is. And HE IS THE REAL BLACK SHEEP!”

Song Qinghan blinked innocently. He didn’t understand why he had become a scourge. Although he was trying to live longer, he never expected that he would be a so-called black sheep.

Lin Dafu trembled with anger for the unforgivable attitude of Huailing. He pulled out the divorce announcement and threw it onto Huailing, saying in a cold tone, “The Lin Family would never ever accept any femina male as a center wedded one with such a jealous and vicious mind. From now on, you’re just a concubine at the lowest status!”

Huailing got his eyelashes trembled hearing that. He straightened up slowly, took the announcement in his hand and read carefully.

Then he got his lips crooked and sneered in a tone of mocking, saying, “Hehe, I, Wang Huailing, the treasure of the Wang Mansion, a cherish jade most welcomed under the admiration from every childe, never expect that you, Lin Dafu, would be so heartless, and treated me like shit after our marriage!”

Song Qinghan took a step back slowly, as if he was scared by the current look of Wang Huailing in front.

Wang Huailing stood up slowly, staring at Lin Dafu with no expression, continued to say, “Since you are ruthless, don’t blame me for being vicious. From now on, you’re the adversary to me! Let’s find out if your Lin Family gets a wealthier revenue, or my Wang Family gets more powers!”

As soon as he finished the words, he turned around towards the door and leaf without hesitation.

Lin Dafu‘s eyebrow got twitched. He never expected that Wang Huailing would say something ruthless since he had long been obedient in Lin Family. And now he even dared to suppress him using the power of Wang Family.

He gritted his teeth with anger, but while his sight fell on Song Qinghan, he released the emotion.

“Han, I am so sorry for all this matter, I will pay back to you what you deserve to get back.” said Lin Dafu.

Witnessing all the process, Song Qinghan felt somehow headache but stared at Lin Dafu, saying with sincerity, “Please, I really don’t want any justice or something. Can you please just stop mess up everything? Isn’t it good for you to get your life peaceful?”

Lin Dafu trembled. He seemed to have been hurt by Song Qinghan’s words, but after a moment, he regained his composure and said with a determined expression, “You don’t have to worry about me. I don’t have to go out for a long time when I come back. I will definitely reorganize my family and wait for you until your recover, then I can…”

He paused and didn’t finish the left sentences, as if he wanted to surprise him.
