My enemies became my companions

Chapter 243 Treat Her Well
The red-faced woman in red saw this scene and chuckled secretly, then stretched out her body and waited with open eyes.

When the tall woman was brought to the bed, Chen Yi looked at her belly under her casual clothes and became more patient.

Even if they are enemies.

"What do you want to say?" Chen Yi asked.

The beautiful woman did not reply. She was just filled with rage and raised her hands slightly, as if she wanted to strangle Chen Yi to death.

"If you don't tell me, I'll have to go find Aunt Zhu first."

Qin Qingluo paused for a moment. Even though she hated the person in her eyes to the core, she finally spoke:

"Your hand...is healed? How come...it's healed just like that?"

Qin Qingluo finally caught this detail at this time, her voice was hoarse and she couldn't believe it.

"The healing done by Medicine Buddha made me feel as if I had never been injured." Chen Yi replied, shaking his head deliberately.

She trembled and felt only boundless despair.

Her gun was broken, her martial spirit was broken, but he didn't pay any price.

"Why, you care about me?" Chen Yi asked with a smile.

Qin Qingluo did not answer. In his dejected state, he just looked back with contempt.

Seeing this, Chen Yi lost all thoughts and instantly became rude.

The sound of clothes being torn was heard, and the golden threads broke. Qin Qingluo was pressed down on the bed, facing forward.

Chen Yi's movements were hasty and disrespectful.

He blew out the small oil lamp.

Then, a bigger candle was lit just to see her humiliation.

........................

They started a competition.

No matter what Chen Yi did, she remained silent, with anger boiling in her eyes.

until…

Chen Yi pressed on her and leaned over to whisper in her ear:
"I heard from the princess that if she gets pregnant, the child will be included in the Qin family tree."

Chen Yi clearly felt that the tall woman under him gradually stiffened, and her heroic face became dull.

She seemed unable to believe that Zhu E had even told Chen Yi about such a thing.

Chen Yi also stopped, his face unclear, and his fingers gently stroked her broad but white waist and back.

She was suspicious at first, then realized something, began to tremble and feel pain, and finally shook with grief and anger.

After an unknown amount of time, she let out a beast-like growl:
"Evil, evil!"

Chen Yi grinned grimly, then exerted force suddenly.

“Evil creature… ah!”

Qin Qingluo's low roar was interrupted by a long scream. Her whole body was tense and her tall body was stretched into a straight line.

"I'll kill you!" The sudden attack made her feel extremely aggrieved. Qin Qingluo screamed and struggled hard to throw Chen Yi off. The next moment, she let out another sad and angry whine: "I'll cut you into pieces...ah!"

Chen Yi ignored her curses and insults and continued to pull the ponytail as he pleased.

The tall woman struggled in anger and humiliation. She roared continuously, like a lion king in distress, relying on her once awe-inspiring roar to maintain her dignity.

“You evil creature, you will not die well!” The female prince resisted angrily. As if relying on instinct, she was still screaming, but she was gradually becoming desperate. “You will not die well… Slow down, slow down!…”

"Slow down..."

“Slow down…”

........................

Chen Yi was tidying up his clothes and turned his head to look, and saw Rouge Ma who had lost his mind.

She lay on the bed, twitching and shaking.

Chen Yi's eyes were dim and unclear, and he stroked her messy ponytail intentionally or unintentionally.

After an unknown amount of time, he didn't say anything considerate. He just pulled up the quilt, covered her with it, and was about to get up slowly.

Qin Qingluo grabbed him suddenly.

She seemed to have something to say.

Chen Yi turned to look at Zhu E, whose face was flushed, and said softly:
"Zhu'e, you go out first."

"Yes."

Then, Zhu E put on his clothes, closed them tightly, and walked out slowly.

After the Saint of the Demon Cult left, Qin Qingluo finally spoke tremblingly:
"She is twenty-nine years old. Her birthday is August 14, the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Chen Yi slowly turned his eyes to the side.

The beautiful woman didn't look at him, her face slightly lowered, as if she was about to give something away.

"The day after my birthday is the Mid-Autumn Festival, when we enjoy the moon. I am so lucky. Every time at this time, she always makes mooncakes with my mother and shares them with everyone in the mansion. The mooncakes for me are made separately, and they are usually filled with lotus paste. I don't like duck egg yolks, so she never adds them."

Qin Qingluo explained calmly that this was just a trivial past event, but she was quite interested in talking about it.

"Aunt Zhu likes flowers, especially osmanthus. When I was young, she used to pierce flowers with a spear. The shadow of the spear was like rain, and the flowers fell like rain. She picked the flowers with a winnowing basket, and then went home to set up a steamer to make osmanthus cake. It tastes very sweet... You will be able to eat it in the future."

Chen Yi did not say anything. The beautiful woman gathered the quilt, her eyes were dazed. It was the first time Chen Yi saw her look so gentle. She lay quietly for a while and said:

"Although she is the princess, we are not close friends. We only regard each other as close relatives. The relationship between mother and daughter is always more solid than that between man and woman. But... forget it, let's not talk about it. Do you understand what I mean?"

Chen Yi pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I don't quite understand."

"…The three tea trees and farms of the Zhu family are the bulk of her dowry when she marries into the palace. In addition, the palace has also prepared a dowry, which is all given to you. There is no need to discuss the amount. The two dowries together are very generous. Not many people in the world can afford such a generous gift."

Chen Yi stretched out his hand and gently stroked her back.

This was a rare moment of peace and tranquility between these two enemies.

The woman's voice was soft and gentle, and tears couldn't stop falling from her eyes. She was speechless for a long time and wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.

She was in a trance.

Chen Yi waited silently.

"She is my dearest relative,"

After a long time, the tall woman said hoarsely:

"You... treat her well."

Chen Yi's hand paused.

The candle flame seemed to burn to the end and began to flicker. He could believe...she would be a good mother in the end.

Chen Yi didn't say anything, and Qin Qingluo didn't speak again either. There was silence between the two of them.

After a long time, Qin Qingluo, who had been waiting for no reply, turned his eyes and finally looked at him.

But he seemed to be taking something out gently from his arms.

It was a golden phoenix hairpin.

Then, without further ado, he inserted his finger between the roots of the beautiful woman's ponytail.

“…What are you doing?” The female prince’s face was gloomy.

Chen Yi laughed and said without comment:

"Wearing this hairpin,
Next time you come, I want to see you, understand?"

The beautiful woman lowered her eyes and looked at him without saying a word.

After a long while, she uttered one word:

"roll."

Chen Yi was not angry when he heard this, because the woman did not take off the hairpin.

He slowly stood up, put on his clothes, opened the curtain and walked out.

After passing through the layers of curtains, Chen Yi paused. He saw Zhu E, who had tied her hair up again, her face was rosy, and she was biting her lips slightly.

Just now, she seemed to be eavesdropping, and now she bowed lightly.

Chen Yi said casually: "Zhu E, I'm leaving now."

Then, without hesitation, he passed her in a long stride.

The charming Zhu E's expression darkened, and she responded softly, unable to hide the disappointment on her face.

Chen Yi stopped.

"Oh, I almost forgot, you have it too."

Zhu'e opened her eyes wide, and saw the man walking towards her with a gentle smile, and gently putting the hairpin into her tied-up hair.

The hairpin he gave overshadowed the one given by King Annan during the wedding.

"Ming Zun..."

Zhu E was moved and hummed, with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Chen Yi scratched her nose.

“Actually I didn’t forget, I just wanted to tease you.

In the end, I want to have it all.”

Zhu'e's face turned even redder, and he watched Chen Yi leave with his long, clear eyes.

I still remember he once said that he liked Qin Qingluo more...

I wish I don’t care much about it at the moment.

I just like it more.

After all, she is a saint, and in that man's heart, her weight will always be heavier.

At least, he teased her instead of Qin Qingluo.

I lifted up my skirt, swayed on my toes, and gently turned in circles, still immersed in happiness.

There were footsteps coming from behind the curtains.

When Qin Qingluo opened the curtain and walked towards him, Zhu E took a look subconsciously, and then his eyes stopped and he couldn't move them away.

She caught a tiny detail.

Qin Qingluo's hairpin is made of gold.
And her hairpin... is made of silver...
