"We're here today, your sister is with you. We'll see this through to the end. Whoever backs down is a coward. Let's fight until the heavens punish us!"

Upon hearing the words "go all the way," Yu Luying's face filled with terror: "Xiao Yao, help!"

"You two have really had too much to drink!" Xiao Yao rushed into the master bedroom. "That's going too far, Shen Jie."

As the boy spoke, he reached out to pry open Shen Jie's fingers.

"What's so excessive?" Shen Jie gritted her teeth, smiling as she looked at Xiao Yao and said, "Isn't this what you've always dreamed of?"

Chapter 270 Against the Will of Women

"What's so excessive?" Shen Jie gritted her teeth, smiling as she looked at Xiao Yao and said, "Isn't this what you've always dreamed of?"

Honestly, Shen Jie's idea was truly judging a gentleman by a woman's standards.

Admittedly, Xiao Yao had fantasized countless times about his "wedding night" with Shen Jie—with little Shen Jie.

He also could not loudly proclaim that he had never, ever thought about a possible romance with Yu Luying one day.

But this?

He never imagined that the current situation would still be dominated by women.

Putting everything else aside, is this in accordance with the rites of Zhou?

Xiao Yao had heard his history teacher say that even among emperors, only a few notorious tyrants would do such a thing.

Besides being given a posthumous title like "You," "Ling," "Li," or "Yang" to ensure lasting fame, they would also likely offend the two imperial concubines and their families in their lifetime.

This would be considered an insult. It's not impossible that someone might smother you to death with the blanket in the middle of the night and then announce it to the world as a "sudden death."

He was unwilling to insult any of them, because that would be an insult to himself.

Just as Xiao Yao was lost in thought, Shen Jie had already thrown Yu Luying onto the giant bed with a tug-of-war—her ability to control the force and angle was quite excellent, so Xiao Yao did not feel any pain, only a comfortable feeling of being softly embraced.

Then, the boy felt himself being firmly pressed down by a heavy object. Looking closely, he saw that Shen Jie had already pinned Yu Luying down beneath her.

"Stop!" Xiao Yao shouted sternly.

Shen Jie stopped what she was doing, looked up, and stared at Xiao Yao with red eyes.

Xiao Yao stretched out his hands in a comforting gesture: "Shen Jie, you've had too much to drink."

"No one is allowed to leave today. Anyone who leaves will be killed," Shen Jie said, her breath reeking of alcohol.

For some reason, Xiao Yao suddenly remembered something Yao's shadow had said in Teacher Yao's hall of fame: "Shen Jie is still that wild delinquent girl with a baseball bat at heart, who only wants to smash a car windshield." He didn't remember the exact words, but that was the gist of it.

The atmosphere became extremely awkward. Yu Luying's face changed color, perhaps out of fear, perhaps because she felt insulted, or perhaps because she felt some inexplicable guilt, so she kept trembling.

"The reason I said I would lend you my fiancé was to correct the timeline, because I felt sorry for your unfortunate fate and that you wouldn't live long, and because I couldn't always be by his side," Xiao Yao thought Shen Jie's voice sounded a little choked up, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

When Xiao Yao heard "You're destined to have a hard life and won't live long," his heart clenched. Fortunately, the words seemed to be lost in the sea of ​​conversation and didn't attract Yu Luying's special attention.

"I've already talked to you two. It's fine for you to go on dates, date, hold hands, kiss, and hug..." Shen Jie continued, "I'm just trying to be helpful!"

“We didn’t do anything!” Yu Luying shouted.

“Yes, if you don’t finish what you started, you haven’t done anything at all,” Shen Jie said. “Did you teach—was this how your uncle taught you?”

Yu Luying: "I did something wrong—but what right do you have to say that to me?!"

Shen Jie: "I have no right to say that. I just can't stand your hypocrisy. You're two-faced, saying one thing to my face and overstepping your bounds behind my back."

"Am I your slave? You want the horse to run but not feed it? Didn't you cause this mess? Didn't you come up with this stupid idea? I disagreed from the very beginning!" Yu Luying cried in anger: "If you can't play, then don't play! We agreed that if I won, you would gracefully withdraw. Why did you change it to Truth or Dare just now?"

"Who can't afford to play? Come on, let's play! Today, the three of us have a great time, and I'll give you a side room in my house from now on! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"I told you from the beginning that we two must be equal!!"

Oh no, it's completely out of control.

Xiao Yao had only one thought in his mind: to stop these two crazy girls from continuing their terrifying words and actions.

The boy leaped onto the giant bed, nearly falling over as he steadied himself and bent down to pull Shen Jie up: "Wife, stop acting crazy when you're drunk. You can't insult my silly sister like that."

Shen Jie struggled and said, "Who insulted her? She's willing to be with you. If you don't believe me, ask her and see what she says. If she can stay by your side like this forever, she'd be even more willing—aren't you willing too? Come on, let's do it together."

After saying this, Shen Jie started to lift up Yu Luying's school uniform top. Yu Luying desperately protected her clothes, preventing her from pulling them up, while biting and hitting Shen Jie's arm.

Seeing the two start fighting, Xiao Yao also pounced on them, grabbed Shen Jie from behind, rolled to the side, and gestured to Yu Luying to run away quickly.

Even so, Yu Luying was still tightly locked up by Shen Jie and couldn't move at all.

As the three of them were tangled together, Xiao Yao suddenly heard a crisp slap, and his heart clenched again.

Shen Jie shuddered, her muscles stiffened, and Yu Luying took the opportunity to jump off the bed. When she landed, she lost her balance and hit the carpet with her chin while her feet were still hooked on the bed.

Fortunately, there was a carpet—even so, Xiao Yao still saw stars for a long time, and his mouth tasted of rust. By the time his vision returned, Yu Luying had already rushed to the door of the reception room and was pulling the door open forcefully.

She turned the door lock to the left, but couldn't turn the handle; she turned the door lock to the right, but still couldn't turn the handle. She was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes, and she was jumping up and down.

Surprisingly, Shen Jie didn't chase after him. She remained in the same position, lying on her side on the bed, and then shouted orders for Xiao Yao to grab her.

"Catch her!"

Yes, that's how it was back then.

Xiao Yao got out of bed and walked slowly toward Yu Luying, who couldn't open the door.

Yu Luying looked over warily and awkwardly assumed a fighting stance.

Seeing the girl's resolute and fearless eyes, Xiao Yao had no doubt that she was prepared to perish together with the enemy.

The boy reached out his hand.

The girl's body suddenly shrank.

Xiao Yao helped her unlock the door from the inside, then removed the security chain and pulled the door open inwards.

As soon as the door was halfway opened, Yu Luying rushed out like a startled fawn.

"Slow down, slow down, don't fall!" Xiao Yao, like an old father, leaned out and called after the retreating figure, "Oh dear, your shoes! Your shoes!"

The snow-white sock soles and arches disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

Xiao Yao did not close the door, but went straight back to the master bedroom.

"That's going too far," Xiao Yao said bluntly, standing at the foot of the giant bed.

"Shut up," Shen Jie said irritably, "Are you siding with outsiders? Whose husband are you anyway?"

“What you did was against the woman’s will. To put it more bluntly, it was attempted rape. Theoretically, Yu Luying could sue you now,” Xiao Yao told Shen Jie.

"Let her sue," Shen Jie said. "Who isn't a woman?"

“Hey,” Xiao Yao said, “If you really wanted to stop her, you would have done it yourself, instead of asking me to chase after her—it’s like Zhuge Liang ordering Guan Yu to guard Huarong Road?”

"Do you think you're very smart?" Shen Jie said.

Xiao Yao sat down at the foot of the bed and reached out to touch Shen Jie's body. He bent over so much that he could only touch her feet. He had no choice but to grab her small feet and say, "I am your husband, so I promised you that I would only sleep with you for the rest of my life. I know you are just being stubborn. If I don't let her go, how will you save face?"

"Eggplant, your words are easier said than your actions." Shen Jie sneered on the surface, but inwardly she was quite pleased with the words.

Xiao Yao stuck his index finger into Shen Jie's sock and fiddled with it seemingly out of boredom: "You're the one who brought her here, and now you've bullied her like this. How are we supposed to be friends in the future? She was so scared by you that she left without even putting on her shoes."

"Wearing slippers?"

"Walking barefoot."

Shen Jie sat up and craned her neck to look at the pair of girls' sneakers piled up in front of the bedside table.

"Then why didn't you chase after him?" Shen Jie asked Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao thought to himself: I'd like to, but by the time I come back to get my shoes and run out again, she'll be long gone. What if I chase after her and come back to find she's already gone? Wouldn't that be a nightmare?

"The legal wife always takes priority," Xiao Yao replied, feigning seriousness.

“All you have left is your mouth,” Shen Jie said. “You said I bullied her, and she even hit me!”

The girl pointed to her cheek for Xiao Yao to see, but he couldn't even see a red mark, so it seemed that Yu Luying hadn't used too much force.

"From childhood to adulthood, besides my father, she's the first person to hit me. Tell me, what are you going to do about this?" Shen Jie said indignantly, "If someone hits your wife, what will you say?"

"You deserve it," Xiao Yao thought to himself.

"Okay, you hit me." Xiao Yao climbed onto the bed, crawled to the headboard, and offered his cheek.

"Really?" Shen Jie asked with some suspicion, "Don't you feel sorry for your little apple?"

“It hurts,” Xiao Yao said, “but the legal wife always comes first. I hope my actions will make you realize that I’m on your side, that I’m on your side.”

"Very good." Shen Jie smiled and suddenly slapped him.

The palm strike was incredibly powerful. Xiao Yao didn't dodge; he simply closed his eyes tightly, scrunched up his face, and prepared to face the pain.

But the slap never landed on his face.

Xiao Yao was relieved that he had made the right bet again and opened his eyes.

"I'll leave it to you, we can do it together next time," Shen Jie said.

Xiao Yao grinned and nuzzled forward, pulling Shen Jie into his arms. He gently rubbed her cheeks and whispered sweet nothings in her ear.

"Don't be so smug, it's only a 20% cut." Shen Jie poked Xiao Yao's forehead with her finger.
