Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 151

Chapter 151 Let Alone Separation
Regardless of whether it was in his previous life or his current life, Qin Mubai was afraid of two things. One was that women were crying, especially beautiful women; Second, there were no women around. Of course, they also meant beautiful women.

Qin Mubai always felt guilty when beautiful women cried because of him. Although he wouldn’t immediately become soft-hearted and be defeated by him, he would always be a bit hard-hearted. Emotionally, he could kill decisively, but he could not bear to be a heartless and heartless loser.

At this moment, Wu Meiniang’s tears made him feel this way, and he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

“Why are you crying?” Qin Mubai asked softly.

Fortunately, Wu Meiniang covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly when she asked. She turned away and shrugged her shoulders, crying sadly.

Qin Mubai grinned dejectedly. She got up and squatted beside him. She lowered her head playfully and looked up at her face from below.

“Don’t cry, okay? Do you have something to say?” Qin Mubai said.

‘”Wuwu” Wu Meiniang sat on the stool and spun around, then cried with her back to him.

“I’m so focused on crying that I’m embarrassed to disturb you. Am I leaving now?” Qin Mubai probed.

“Stop! Don’t go!” Wu Meiniang jumped up in a flash, tears dancing in her eyes, and her eyes were a little red.

“I didn’t leave, I didn’t leave.” Qin Mubai chuckled dryly and hurriedly took out a small handkerchief that he had brought with him and handed it over, “Come, wipe it.”

“Humph!” Wu Meiniang was both annoyed and embarrassed. She grabbed her handkerchief and sat down. She turned around to quietly wipe her tears and said, “Don’t sneak away!”

“Alright, I’m not leaving. I’m hungry. How can I bear to abandon so many delicious things?” As Qin Mubai spoke, she sat down, glanced at Wu Meiniang, stretched out her chopsticks and picked up the dishes, and secretly smiled again.

Naturally, what he had expected was not bad. Wu Meiniang really did not really want to break up with him. Otherwise, why would she bother to perform like this? Before, without saying a word, he had written a divorce certificate, which might have really hurt her self-esteem. However, if it weren’t for the fact that she still had some affection for me, she wouldn’t have cared about it and would have only endured a bit of resentment and left. Now that she has returned to look for me … that means that she is still a little reluctant to part with me!

Just give her a lesson. Carrots and sticks. Monarchs are useful when dealing with subjects. Husbands are also effective when dealing with wives!

Thinking of this, Qin Mubai said softly, “Mother Mei, stop crying. It hurts your body to cry too much. Come and eat some food and drink some wine with me. This dish of yours is really good. It’s been a long time since you’ve eaten such a authentic Chang’an dish.”

“Is that so?” Wu Meiniang answered. She finally stopped crying and turned around. The tears on her face had been wiped clean, but her eyes were still a little red. She folded the handkerchief that Qin Mubai gave her neatly and held it in her hand. Qin Mubai thought that she would return it, so he naturally reached out to pick it up. “It’s mine,” she snorted softly. “Keep it as a memento!”

‘”Eh” Qin Mubai’s hand suddenly stopped in mid-air and laughed dryly. “That’s good, that’s good. After all, I’ll give you a husband-and-wife match as a souvenir! As a husband, I’m indeed very negligent. It’s been such a long time since I’ve given you a single needle and a half. No wonder you have so much resentment towards me.”

“Do you know now?” Wu Meiniang said softly. She did not intend to reprimand him. She only said with a hint of resentment, “Do we not know how to cherish him? Only when he loses him will we feel his preciousness and regret it?”

Qin Mubai put down his chopsticks and put his elbows on the stone table. He looked at Wu Meiniang with a smile and whispered, “People always make such mistakes.” Take everything you have for granted and turn a blind eye to it. It is only when it disappears or leaves that it feels important and wants to get it back. Many things are like this, including family, friendship and love, but also our health and now have a peaceful life.

“You’re so verbose” Wu Meiniang’s lips curled into a chuckle and she turned into a bit of a joke. “I’m not here to listen to your lecture today. Eat, I’m leaving after eating.”

“Why do I feel like you’re here to deliver a decapitated meal?” Qin Mubai said with a smile.

“Nonsense! Not lucky!” Wu Meiniang scolded in a low voice.

“What are you still doing in the middle of the night? I’m not at ease leaving you alone. Let’s stay in the secretariat’s mansion tonight!” Qin Mubai said.

Wu Meiniang was stunned for a moment, her face flushed red, but she forcefully said, “This secretariat mansion is not your home, yet you are still staying here on behalf of your master.”

“Although it’s not my home, I always keep my word.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Alright, be good, don’t carry it with me. Can’t you just listen to me once in a while? Stay, don’t leave.”

Wu Meiniang rolled her eyes and said playfully, “I’ll give it a try!”

“Try?” Qin Mubai couldn’t help but laugh bitterly, “What’s there to try? It’s very simple to stay or not to stay.”

“If you can make me happy, I will naturally be happy to stay. If you continue to despise me and even stimulate me, I will not be willing to stay by your side for a moment!” Wu Meiniang said.

“Alright, alright, I know.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “This is the first time I’ve seen you cry …”

“Does it look good?” Wu Meiniang’s eyebrows furrowed as she gritted her red lips and glared at Qin Mubai angrily.

“Well … Generally speaking, when you cry, you look better than when you’re fierce.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “There is an old saying that a man is a clay woman and water. Clay needs water to form. It means that a woman’s nature is gentle. Only by using it can she conquer a man and bring out the best in him.”

“What kind of water or mud? It’s not like a three-year-old child lives in a family. Who wants to play with you?” Wu Meiniang couldn’t help but chuckle with a resentful smile and said, “Eat. The night breeze is very cold. The food is going to be cold.”

“Why are you playing with mud? That’s called milk-water blending.” Qin Mubai heard Wu Meiniang’s voice clearly become gentle and peaceful for a long time. She gradually felt at ease in her heart as she stretched out her chopsticks and picked up the dishes with a smile.

A gust of wind blew, causing the lanterns to shake and the grass to fly. Qin Mubai frowned, “Why don’t you go eat in my room?”

Wu Meiniang blushed and whispered, “Who wants to go to your room in the middle of the night? This is the secretariat’s mansion …”

“Haha!” Qin Mubai laughed and shouted, “Someone–”

After a long time, a servant finally ran over and hurriedly came to pay his respects, “General, forgive me. This lowly person fell asleep for a while. What do you want me to do?”

“Arrange a guest room that is quiet and comfortable.” Qin Mubai said.

“This lowly one obeys. General, please follow this lowly one here.”

Wu Meiniang whispered behind Qin Mubai, “I haven’t agreed to stay …”

Qin Mubai pretended that he didn’t hear anything. He took the initiative to pack up the dishes and put them in the food box and wrapped them up with a small blanket. He waved his hand at Wu Meiniang and said, “Let’s go, what are you waiting for?”

“Overbearing … unreasonable!” Wu Meiniang glared at Qin Mubai, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and walked forward half-pushed and half-pushed.

“Hurry up!” Qin Mubai reached out and grabbed her hand, pulling her forward.

This was the first time in her life that Wu Meiniang had been held in hand like this, and her face instantly turned red. Fortunately, the darkness was so dense that it could be concealed, making her less embarrassed. Her small hand was a little cold, and when Qin Mubai’s warm and dry big hand held it, she immediately felt a burst of heat on her face and her heartbeat quickened.

However, Qin Mubai only had one feeling: This hand was so tender and comfortable to hold!

The servant led the two to a rather spacious large guest room. He opened the door and said, “General, please intervene. This is the room of the Governor of the Prefecture. Now that Zhi Shi has no one to fill the vacancy, the room has been empty. However, this lowly person has kept this place clean and the bedding has been changed.”

“Thank you for your trouble. Go to sleep!”

The servant bowed and left tactfully. Qin Mubai went into the room and placed the lantern on his hand. The room was immediately filled with orange-red light, a warm and ambiguous color.

It was the first time Wu Meiniang had been alone with a man in the middle of the night. Although she was not a timid and cowardly woman, she could not help but feel a little nervous and embarrassed at this moment. She stood at the door and looked around, thinking bitterly, “Is this door closed?”

“The wind is so strong.” Qin Mubai walked over and naturally reached out to close the door. Then, he said to her, “Sit down, Mama Mei.”

“Oh” Wu Meiniang walked to the side of the couch mechanically and sat down. Her hands and feet were at a loss, so she found something to do and quickly took out the food from the food box. She laughed and said, “It’s warm. Fortunately, it’s fine.”

“Mother Mei, it’s so late. You’ve been waiting outside for a long time, haven’t you?” Qin Mubai walked over to sit down with her and said softly, “It’s cold. Why didn’t you wake me up?”

‘”If I wake up from sleep, I will be annoyed and irritated. I’m afraid you’ll get angry, so …” Wu Meiniang said softly and poured a cup of wine for Qin Mubai. “There’s no Qin Immortal wine in Jiangzhou yet, but that’s good. It’s not so easy to get drunk after drinking this light wine. When you wake up from a hangover, it’s easy to get a headache.”

“Actually, you are considerate and caring for others.” Qin Mubai said, “But why did you always fight with me before? Isn’t it good to be like this now?”

Wu Meiniang’s movements stagnated for a moment, and after a moment of silence, she sighed and said, “I don’t know either.” Perhaps from the first time we met, we were accustomed to fighting each other tit for tat. Actually, I don’t want to do that either. Sometimes, I miss you after being separated for a long time … But when I see you, my heart and words will unconsciously change. Unknowingly, I want to compete with you for victory and defeat. Only if you admit your mistake to me or try to coax me can I be considered willing. “It seems that I’m still too ignorant. There should be a limit to everything. This time, I went too far … Mubai, will you forgive me for once?”

Qin Mubai’s heart completely softened.

Wu Meiniang had already said this. She was almost pleading with him. As a man, he should always have some bearing and self-restraint. How could there be a reason not to agree to her?

“Alright.” Qin Mubai decisively spat out a word and then smiled, “Actually, I did make many mistakes. It’s a metaphor for not visiting you often, neglecting you lightly, and sometimes lacking patience. My temperament is harder. Actually, I’ve always wanted to sit down with you and have a good talk because we lack communication. So misunderstandings and estrangements arise.”

“No, I should believe you.” Wu Meiniang said, “With your personality, you can’t ignore Li Yuanchang’s incident.” At that time, he took the initiative to release the Third Fairy and dismissed the idea of harassing me. I knew that you were definitely helping me in the dark. However, I was a little unhappy that you didn’t come to comfort me or tell me. He said that he wanted to ask you for a divorce certificate … It’s just that you ignored me for too long, and you were so angry that you wanted to provoke me, but I didn’t expect that it would be self-defeating. ”

Qin Mubai Wan’er smiled and said, “In the future, we should never mention the word’separation ‘again.”

Wu Meiniang’s delicate body trembled slightly as she looked at Qin Mubai with her beautiful eyes. She bit her red lips and nodded seriously, “Yes!”
