Chapter 376: Confusion
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Caught off guard, Mu Yangling was pressed under him and almost threw him out. Fortunately, she knew that Qi Haoran was just playing with her, so she only widened her eyes at him.
However, Qi Haoran’s mouth turned dry from Mu Yangling’s gaze. His round nose, pink lips, and fair face looked a little rosy from his fall. His figure was reflected in her widened eyes. Qi Haoran’s gaze involuntarily landed on her lips and gently planted a kiss before he realized it…
It was even softer than her face…
Qi Haoran’s limbs were a little weak, and he didn’t know what to do next. Mu Yangling was originally holding her breath and waiting for him to continue, but Qi Haoran only pressed his lips against hers but didn’t go further nor get up. Mu Yangling let out an exhale…
His breath landed on Qi Haoran’s neck. Unlike the breeze, it was warm and lingering. Qi Haoran couldn’t hold on and fell directly on Mu Yangling, but this made him feel even more thirsty.
Mu Yangling pushed him aside and sat up to glare at him.
Qi Haoran probably knew that his performance was very embarrassing, so he lowered his head in shame, but his face and neck were completely red.
In the end, the couple separated in silence. Only when Qi Haoran brought the horse home did he realize what a stupid thing he had done. He slapped his head in frustration. Why did he let Mu Yangling go just like that? He even brought the horse back.
Although Qi Haoran was vexed, he did not chase after her. He just rode back to Xingzhou Prefecture overnight angrily, scaring Qi Xiuyuan. “Why did Haoran suddenly go to Xingzhou Prefecture? Did something happen there?”
Rong Xuan thought about it carefully before shaking his head. “No news.”
The two of them frowned and thought for a while. Rong Xuan guessed, “Perhaps he has something to discuss with Zijin. Didn’t Zijin return to Xingzhou Prefecture this morning?”
However, Qi Haoran did not go back to look for Fan Zijin. Instead, he barged into the Wu residence and pulled Wu Jin out.
Wu Jin had just finished dinner and was doing his homework. He was still confused when Qi Haoran dragged him out. “Little General, Young Master Fan isn’t with me.”
“I know.” Qi Haoran held it in for a long time before asking, “Have you visited a brothel?”
Wu Jin’s sleepy eyes immediately lit up. He sized up Qi Haoran excitedly and chuckled. “Little General, are you thinking about it? That’s true. Little General, you’re almost 16 years old. Back then, I was only 12 years old when my primordial yang first leaked…”
Qi Haoran couldn’t bear to look at him. “Ah Ling said that if one’s primordial yang leaks too early, not only will his kidneys suffer, but his life will also be shortened. He might not be able to live after 40 years old.” Qi Haoran sized up Wu Jin and finally stared at his crotch. He asked, “You’re about to reach 20, right? That means you have 20 years left.”
Wu Jin was speechless. If it weren’t for the fact that he wasn’t skilled in martial arts, he would definitely fight with Qi Haoran. This concerned a man’s dignity. He asked with a dark expression, “Since this isn’t about you becoming enlightened, why are you asking about the brothel?”
Qi Haoran hesitated for a moment. He wanted to ask how to kiss a girl, but he felt that it was too embarrassing to ask outright. He thought for a moment and said, “I just want to take a look. Bring me there. I want to know how you guys usually play.”
Wu Jin’s originally dark face instantly turned red again, and his eyes lit up. It turned out that Qi Haoran was not enlightened, but wanted to be enlightened. This was a piece of cake for him.
Wu Jin waved his hand and said, “You’ve come to the right person. Let’s go. I’ll bring you to the best brothel in Xingzhou Prefecture.”
Fei Bai paced around anxiously at the side, but he could not exert any strength.
For some reason, the Fourth Young Master wanted to return to Xingzhou Prefecture as soon as he returned. He’d thought that he was here to look for Young Master Zijin, but who knew that he was here to look for Wu Jin? It was fine to look for Wu Jin, but how could he follow Wu Jin into the brothel?
One had to know that the Eldest Young Master was very strict about such matters. He was afraid that the Fourth Young Master would be led astray by others outside. Not only the Fourth Young Master, but even Young Master Zijin was forbidden from discussing business in brothels.
After thinking about it, he felt that letting Eldest Young Master stop him now wasn’t a good idea. Thus, he could only look for Young Master Zijin. Hence, Fei Bai leaned close to Qi Haoran’s ear and said, “Master, I’ll go back and get more silver. I don’t have much with me.”
He definitely had to bring enough money to a brothel. Qi Haoran was also afraid that it would be embarrassing if he did not have enough money, so he quickly agreed to Fei Bai’s idea to go back and get the money. As if he was afraid that he wouldn’t have enough money, he said, “Ask for more. If it’s not enough, go and get it from Zijin.”
Fei Bai was even happier when he heard this. Since he was going to look for Young Master Zijin to get the money, wouldn’t it be perfect if he casually mentioned this when Young Master Zijin asked?
Fei Bai ran back eagerly to ask Fan Zijin for money. Unexpectedly, Fan Zijin waved his hand without even looking up and asked Yanmo to retrieve the money for Fei Bai. As long as it didn’t exceed 1,000 taels, he didn’t have to report it to him.
Yanmo was also used to Qi Haoran taking money from here when he ran out of it. To be honest, both parties could calculate exactly how much Qi Haoran had taken from this place. No one noted how much he had returned either.
Sometimes, when an expensive horse or dagger caught his eye, he would happily pay a few thousand taels of silver for it. If it wasn’t enough, he would take it from here. Sometimes, when he earned money outside, he would put some here. For example, when he attacked Chang’an County last time, he had received a fair share of the items. There were gold, silver, jewelry, and antique calligraphy and paintings, all of which he brought here. But then he would also take money from here and spend it. Therefore, Fan Zijin and Yanmo were very used to it. The consequence of being used to it was that Fan Zijin didn’t even bother asking for the reason these days. Even Yanmo didn’t ask. After giving the money to Fei Bai, he wanted to return to Fan Zijin’s side to serve him.
Fei Bai held it in for a long time, but no one asked him why the Fourth Young Master wanted to take so much money.
After circling around twice, he braced himself and followed Yanmo in. He said to Fan Zijin, “Young Master Zijin, I’ll take the money to the brothel and give it to Master.”
“Okay, go ahead,” Fan Zijin replied casually as he continued to look at the document in his hand. Only then did the word ‘brothel’ register in his mind. He looked up at Fei Bai and saw that he was still standing there hesitating. With a darkened expression, he asked, “Where did you say you were taking the money to?”
Fei Bai heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “The brothel. Master has followed Young Master Wu to the brothel to broaden his horizons.”
Fan Zijin picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at Fei Bai. The teacup brushed past Fei Bai’s forehead and flew out, smashing against the door. Staring at Fei Bai with a dark expression, he asked, “Then what were you doing just now? Trying to leak your master’s whereabouts?”
Fei Bai’s face turned pale. With a plop, he knelt on the ground and said weakly, “I don’t dare. It’s just that Eldest Young Master has never allowed Fourth Young Master to go to those places…”
“Then why didn’t you tell me as soon as you came back? Instead, you’re beating around the bush here,” Fan Zijin said darkly. “Sure, now all of you like to play tricks.”
Yanmo also knelt on the ground with a thud.
Fan Zijin looked at them coldly and did not ask them to get up. He only sneered and said, “Eldest Cousin is magnanimous and Haoran doesn’t bother to care about these things. But don’t think that you can be lawless because of that. Let me tell you, although I’m not their biological brother, we’re closer than biological brothers. If I find out that you’re playing tricks again, I’ll skin you alive.”
After saying that, he pushed his chair away and left..
