“Right, you can leave now, call Hong Yun over”
“Yes, yes, yes, It is time for business” The madam laughed and went out.
Knowing that Gentlemen Ji is here, she knew that it is time for her to make money again, so she was happy. The moment the madam told her to go to him, she immediately left what ever she was doing and headed to his room.
JI Wu Jiu wasn’t sure of how to tell her about it yet.
Hong Yun has been in this business for a long time, so she understands the heart of a man very clearly, seeing that he is having trouble to speak out, she asks instead “Sir, don’t tell me you use force on her?”
“….. can be considered so..”
“Ai yo. What do you want to me say ah.. Earlier on I asked you to be gentle and caring, in order for you to…. Great.. now all your efforts are wasted.”
Every sentence she said made Ji Wu Jiu’s face turn one shade darker, after she stopped, his face was already at it’s worst.
Hong Yun then asked, “then… her husband.. does he know about it?”
“???”
“Know or don’t know? You have to tell me something”
“I am her husband”
“……”
Hong Yun looked at Ji Wu Jiu for a period of time not saying anything. She has met countless man, it seems that she is still too young, this was such a unique scenario, why would anyone be afraid of touching their own wife? Also who is this wife, how can she treat her husband, who not to mention is not only good looking but rich too, this way. Don’t tell me she will be happy only if she can marry the emperor!
Hong Yun has so many things that she wants to say, but was afraid that if she were to say them, she will anger him, but in the end she only sighed and said “Sir, towards your wife you really have fallen deep in love with her, so sweet, yet so pitiful.”
Ji Wu Jiu on the other hand got shocked by her words “Fallen deep in love?”
Hong Yun finally can understand him a little more … this person, his brain is not too bright. She nodded and said “Yes, as the saying goes “No treasures can be compared with a good man”, Sir your feelings towards your wife, really makes me touched. Then again, don’t tell me.. you don’t know that you have fallen in love with her?”
Ji Wu Jiu’s expression was of realization.
It is indeed so, Hong Yue said “it is true that when you are involved you would be the last to know, the relationship between man and woman, has always been hard to understand, for you to not know is understandable. But, it was fortunate that you met me.. “Hong Yun looked up to take a peek at Ji Wu Jiu, and saw that he seems to be in a daze, not sure where his thoughts went.
“Gentleman? Gentleman?”
Ji Wu Jiu suddenly stood up, and turned to leave.
Hong Yun chased from the back and said “Sir, you haven’t pay up!”
Ji Wu Jiu took out a stack of money, and without looking stuffed them into her hands. Hong Yun then holding on to the stack of money starts to laugh, not bothered with him anymore.
On their way back, Ji Wu Jiu seems to be lost in thoughts, Feng You De looked at him, a face full of understanding and worry.
When they reached Gan Qing Palace, Ji Wu Jiu made everyone leave and alone, was in deeper thoughts.
All this while, the way he treats woman, was the same as how he treats food or objects. When there is a need, then he will use them, and which one is not bad, he will award them.
He has never thought of what a relationship between man and woman could be. All his intelligence was used on planning for the court, towards love and relationship it was not clear…
Now he finally understood that “love” can appear without trace, and cannot be removed making people miss one another so badly.
Ji Wu Jiu has never lacked any woman in his life, and he has never have any feelings of obsession towards any woman.
Until he met Ye Zhen Zhen.
Ji Wu Jiu found out, he has all the way been thinking about this matter the other way round. The reason why he wants her so badly, was because he likes her.
He walked out of Gan Qing Palace, passed through Jiao Tai Hall, and stood infront of Kun Ning Palace. He wanted to go in, to talk to her, to tell her, he likes her.
However, standing in front of Jiao Tai Hall, he never took a step forward.
Opposite him, the windows suddenly opened. Ye Zhen Zhen was sitting infront of the window, and saw him. She felt that it was very stuffy inside, and ignoring Su Yue’s advice she opened the window to let some air in, the cold air blew in. She really feel much refreshed.
Ye Zhen Zhen looked at Ji Wu Jiu, Ji Wu Jiu was also looking at Ye Zhen Zhen. Both of them looking at each other from a far like a pair of lovers separated by a bridge.
JI Wu Jiu suddenly turned around, and walked into Jiao Tai Hall.
Ye Zhen Zhen, who was looking at his back figure suddenly said to Su Yue “Su Yue, I think I am in the wrong”
“Niang Niang, you telling me these words is useless, the emperor would not be able to hear it” Su Yue said.
