Was it you that night?
Chapter 107 - 105: He Can’t Marry Any Woman, Including Qinghe

Chapter 107: Chapter 105: He Can’t Marry Any Woman, Including Qinghe

Shen Zhiyao had no desire to cultivate that night, nor could she fall asleep.

Not until before dawn did her room finally stir.

She pretended to be asleep, yet pricked up her ears to eavesdrop, only following out of the Simple Residence Courtyard after Dongfang Wuya had left without a sound.

Seeing Dongfang Wuya’s figure disappearing in a flash, she returned to the bedroom with mixed emotions and blankly stared at the still-sleeping Qinghe.

Dongfang Wuya had actually awakened suddenly, and for a moment, he did not understand why he was sleeping with Shen Qinghe.

Upon recalling the events, he was just relieved that he had woken up in time.

Though somewhat reluctant to admit it, he truly had fled in a panic. The only relief was that Shen Qinghe was still asleep when he woke up, otherwise, where would he have put his face?

Shen Qinghe was drunk, but he was not, and how did it come about that he slept with Shen Qinghe?

Seeing Dongfang Wuya return at dawn with a moody complexion, Xiao Bai was extremely curious: "Master, were you driven back by Fairy Qinghe?"

Dongfang Wuya scoffed at the words: "Do you think Shen Qinghe dares to expel me?"

Xiao Bai’s thoughts wandered further: "Then, is it that Fairy Qinghe is unwilling to take responsibility for you, Master?"

The master had gone to the Simple Residence Courtyard last night and did not return until now. Wasn’t that staying for the night? As for how that stay happened, only the master himself knows.

"Get lost!" Dongfang Wuya, in a bad mood, decided to go to the adjacent chamber to see Shen Zhuo.

Seeing Shen Zhuo’s face, he suddenly remembered two years ago when Shen Zhuo asked him to save Shen Qinghe, and how Shen Zhuo had offered Shen Qinghe to him in marriage.

At this moment, he truly suspected this was a romantic trap set by the Shen father and daughter, otherwise, how could things have progressed to this point?

He was just thinking, if Shen Qinghe remembered sleeping together with him last night, or if Shen Zhiyao told Shen Qinghe they had slept together, would Shen Qinghe take the opportunity to make him take responsibility for her?

For a time, he grew restless.

It would be normal for Shen Qinghe to demand responsibility, and he couldn’t blame her—after all, Shen Qinghe was drunk and knew nothing, whereas he was sober; he should have pushed away Shen Qinghe who threw herself into his arms.

But he had never thought about getting married, to be exact, he could not marry any woman, Shen Qinghe included.

If Shen Qinghe knew he couldn’t marry her, would she feel heartbroken?

When Shen Qinghe woke up, still somewhat dazed, she didn’t remember what had happened the previous night until Shen Zhiyao’s face suddenly appeared before her.

"Qinghe, let’s continue talking about Snow Bone City and Mr. Wuya," Shen Zhiyao said gravely.

Utterly unaware that she had spilled everything the previous night, Shen Qinghe shook her head, "I don’t remember what happened in Snow Bone City anymore."

Shen Zhiyao couldn’t help but chuckle and pinched her face: "Xiao Hemiao, stop pretending, you told everything about Snow Bone City yesterday, even how you stripped and were pinned down on the bed by Wuya!"

Shen Qinghe’s face immediately turned red: "How could that be possible, what nonsense is elder sister spouting?"

Shen Zhiyao went as far as to repeat everything she had said last night, and finally asked: "Stop struggling on your deathbed, confess honestly, is there anything else you haven’t told us?"

Otherwise, why would Dongfang Wuya come so late and even sleep together with Qinghe?

Looking at the girl’s expression, she probably doesn’t remember Dongfang Wuya visiting last night.

Shen Qinghe’s face turned a slight shade of embarrassment, "That’s all there was."

How come she didn’t have any impression of it at all? Alcohol really wasn’t any good; she had actually blurted out everything that happened in the Illusory Realm, which was just absurd.

"Actually, it’s quite a pity. Why didn’t you just take Mr. Wuya’s virginity before consuming the Snow Bone Grass?" Shen Zhiyao imagined such a scene and couldn’t help but get excited.

She felt that, given the circumstances last night, it was probably only a matter of time before it would happen.

It was truly worrisome, she just didn’t know what Mr. Wuya thought of Qinghe.

"What are you thinking about, elder sister? How could I possibly do that? That’s Mr. Wuya, how could I take advantage of him not remembering his own identity and do that to him?" Shen Qinghe scolded Shen Zhiyao with a look of reproach.

Shen Zhiyao touched her nose with a look of boredom, "I was just saying. If you really slept with Mr. Wuya, I doubt he’d bear to do anything to you!"

But she thought handsome men were a sort of poison, male beauty led people astray, and it was best not to be involved. Those peach blossom eyes of Mr. Wuya were just like the kind the legendary scoundrels had.

Even if Qinghe did have relations with Mr. Wuya, it was unlikely Mr. Wuya would take responsibility for her, right?

"Don’t let anyone know about what happened in Snow Bone City, elder sister. Otherwise, if Mr. Wuya finds out, he would certainly tear my mouth apart!" Shen Qinghe hurriedly urged.

Shen Zhiyao’s face fell, "I actually wanted to tell Xiu Xiu about this..."

The problem was Mr. Wuya had come over last night, and after spending half the night with Qinghe, he most likely had heard Qinghe mentioning what happened in Snow Bone City.

"Elder sister, keep a tight lip, don’t tell anyone. Mr. Wuya cares a lot about face; if word of what happened in the Illusory Realm gets out, he will definitely be unhappy," Shen Qinghe interrupted Shen Zhiyao.

"Alright, alright, I got it. I’ll keep my mouth shut, so you won’t have trouble," Shen Zhiyao said while making faces and suddenly laughed lewdly, "So, what did it feel like to kiss Mr. Wuya?"

Shen Qinghe’s face turned beet red, "I don’t remember!"

Shen Zhiyao grabbed Shen Qinghe and pulled her to the front, "Aren’t we real sisters?"

"No, we have the same father but different mothers." Shen Qinghe tried to escape from Shen Zhiyao’s clutches and dodge this provocative topic.

"Oh, so that’s how it is, Shen Qinghe. You don’t actually see me as your real elder sister. Aren’t you worried that I’ll be hurt and saddened?" Shen Zhiyao firmly trapped Shen Qinghe within her clutches.

Shen Qinghe stiffly said, "Not afraid!"

Shen Zhiyao, looking at Shen Qinghe’s delicate cheeks, suddenly felt sentimental, "I think it’s not a loss that Mr. Wuya’s first kiss went to you."

My little sister was as beautiful as a fairy, and it suited her to be with Dongfang Wuya’s bewitchingly handsome face.

"Elder sister, let’s not talk about this anymore. I watched the Snow Bone City Illusory Realm disappear with my own eyes. In that place, only the Snow Bone Grass was real, everything else was fake!" Shen Qinghe said, pushing Shen Zhiyao away.

Shen Zhiyao fell silent.

Having been kissed by a man like Dongfang Wuya, how could she consider it fake? Even if Dongfang Wuya was a sword in the Illusory Realm, that was still Dongfang Wuya himself.

She feared that after being kissed by such an incredibly handsome man as Dongfang Wuya, Qinghe would no longer have eyes for any other, more ordinary men.

Moreover, Mr. Wuya’s attitude towards Qinghe was clearly different from others; otherwise, he wouldn’t willingly let himself be slept on by Qinghe.

With Dongfang Wuya’s cultivation base, if he wasn’t willing, Qinghe wouldn’t have been able to force anything on him, even if she was drunk. Yet, Mr. Wuya had stayed and accompanied her until the fourth watch of the night before leaving. What did that indicate?
