Chapter 62.1 – Overflowing Jealousy
Lu Qipei was an honest person, and she barely ever told lies. Especially when she was facing Qi Yang, she would drop her guard to the lowest level, so sometimes she would say something inappropriate without th9inking.
Right now, facing Qi Yang’s sudden anger, Lu Qipei was not stupid and reacted quickly. She felt an explosion go inside her heart, and for some reason she was reminded of some gossips that she heard in Hanlin Academy in her previous life.
It was said that the Headmaster of Hanlin Academy was a henpecked husband, and he often made his wife unhappy and had to kneel on top of a washboard when he went home.
The first half of the rumor could be believed, but the second half was probably just the colleagues’ speculation and not worth believing.
But at this moment, Lu Qipei somehow thought that the person kneeling on a washboard was going to be herself…
Lu Qipei was given abrupt jolt. Facing Qi Yang’s gaze that said that she wouldn’t stop until she gave her a clear explanation, Lu Qipei carefully opened her mouth and said, “I, I saw her once when the courtesan was parading through the streets before.”
Qi Yang looked at her in disbelief when she heard what she said. Really, Lu Qipei would not lie to her. “And?”
Lu Qipei felt even more guilty. She glanced left and right in hesitation, then looked at the direction of the Third Prince’s concubine. Finally, she lowered her head and replied honestly, “And, when the list of top performers of the imperial exam first came out, I was dragged by a few others to celebrate with some wine at the Spring Breeze Pavilion.”
Then, Lu Qipei raised her head and looked at Qi Yang again, emphasizing, “It’s really just a few drinks. I didn’t do anything.”
What could she do in a brother anyways? Wouldn’t she afraid of exposing her identity and losing her life?
Qi Yang rolled her eyes when she heard that, knowing that Lu Qipei would not get involved with another woman. Still, she couldn’t help but feel sour knowing Lu Qipei had gone to the Spring Breeze Pavilion. Her face didn’t look good, and it was clear that she waiting for Lu Qipei to coax her.
This time, Lu Qipei wasn’t dense. She still remembered what Qi Yang asked her after she got drunk that day; she couldn’t look at other girls, nor other men. She could only have Qi Yang in her eyes!
The little princess was very domineering, but whenever Lu Qipei thought of these things, her eyes were full of smiles. She came over to Qi Yang’s side and coaxed her with a low voice, “Ah Ning, don’t be angry. Other than you, I won’t look at any other girls from now on.”

Qi Yang’s expression mellowed, but she still turned her head away and ignored Lu Qipei.
Lu Qipei knowingly walked to the other side, then pulled her sleeve and gently shook it. Her clear black eyes looked at her pitifully. “I know I was wrong, I will never dare do it again. You can vent however you want. It’s not easy for us to meet again, Ah Ning, don’t ignore me.”
She was sensible enough to know not to find an excuse – that going to the Spring Breeze Pavilion was something from the previous life, and knowing Qin Qing was even more so something from the previous life. After all, the her from the previous life was also someone that belonged to the little princess. The person in front of her was someone who had been entangled with her for two lifetimes, someone she needed to spend the rest of her life together with.
Qi Yang looked at her and suddenly her hand to twist Lu Qipei’s ear. “Tell me, where else have you gone?”
Lu Qipei quickly shook her head when she heard that. “No, no, no. Really, how would I dare go to those kinds of places with my identity? Besides, after the Qionglin banquet, His Majesty bestowed me the marriage, and no one dared to drag me to those kinds of places again.”
Qi Yang snorted softly after she heard this. When she spoke again, her voice was still a little sour, “So what you mean is that, if you had been able to go, if you had dared to go, or if someone had invited you, then you would have gone?”
Lu Qipei realized for the first time the horror when a woman picked apart your words to find fault with you. She didn’t dare explain anymore, afraid that she would end up making more mistakes. She could only repeat, “No, I don’t want to go to those places. Having Ah Ning is enough for me.”
Perhaps the last sentence ‘having Ah Ning is enough for me’ was enough to appease Qi Yang – Her Royal Highness The Princess finally let Lu Qipei go. The hand twisting her ear did not exert any force from the beginning to the end. Only at this moment did she pinch her earlobe, saying, “I’ll let you go this time.”
Lu Qipei seemed to have been spared from a death sentence, as a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. At this moment, she only gave Qi Yang an ingratiating smile and pointed at the Third Prince’s consort and Qin Qing at the distance, saying, “Look, Ah Ning. They seemed to have finished talking and are leaving.”
The two had been too focused on the explanation to Qi Yang’s jealous interrogation that they forgot about their initial business. By the time they came back to their senses, the other two had already finished talking and left.
Qi Yang looked at the spot Lu Qipei pointed at, but her first reaction was to cover Lu Qipei’s eyes. She said in an incomprehensible tone, “Didn’t you just say you won’t look at other girls anymore?”
Lu Qipei, whose eyes were suddenly covered, blinked innocently. Her long eyelashes ran through Qi Yang’s palm, making it slightly itchy. She didn’t argue with the little princess who was throwing a tantrum, and only responded obediently and closed her eyes.
A smile appeared in Qi Yang’s eyes, and she leaned forward and kissed Lu Qipei on the corner of her lips. She felt the eyelashes beneath her palm tremble slightly, then she withdrew and left. She ignored Lu Qipei again, and looked at the two other women in the distance.
