Chapter 73 – Being Husband and Wife = Being Tied to You, Get Rid of the Rotting Peach Blossoms!
The sun was warm and a slight cool breeze blew. On a small road in the mountains, a black carriage slowly made its way. Suddenly, there was a sound from inside the carriage. The birds in the tree nearby didn’t know if they were frightened by the sound or by the horse’s running and neighing. They flew away.
“What? Tell me clearly. What the hell did that damn old man do to me?” Bai Xi sat up straight and stared at the face that even women would be jealous of.
“Madam Feng, you don’t need to say it so loudly for your husband.” The white jade-like hand stroked Bai Xi’s blue silk and picked up a strip, playing with it.
“Feng Ming, don’t change the subject. You better make it clear. What do you mean? What do you mean by the old man selling me to you?” She will never let this man have the opportunity to change the subject again. She has to ask clearly.
“If he sells it, then he sold it. What’s the point?” His gold eyes softened as they fell on the blue silk in his hand. He suddenly reached out to untie the tangled ink hair. The jet-black hair instantly poured down like a waterfall, adding a touch of beauty to that handsome face.
Bai Xi didn’t pay attention to this, but stared directly at him. “Speak.”
“About what?” Feng Ming blinked very innocently.
“Don’t pretend to be stupid. Speak!” She had to admire this man’s ability to pretend to be innocent and sympathetic. She had been deceived several times, and now she would never let him lie.
“Old man Bai said he wanted to… You were given to me as a promise.”
“Really?” Bai Xi didn’t quite believe what he said, but the old man did say something similar to her. Perhaps what he said may be true, but…
“Mm.” Feng Ming nodded and lowered his gold eyes. He continued to look at the blue silk in his hand.
“The old man said you refused.” She still remembered that the man appeared in her room early in the morning and slept on her couch. Every road and yard of the Bai family had been familiar for him. He actually regarded the Bai family as his own. She remembered it very clearly, but the old man told her that he refused, didn’t he?
“I agreed later.” Feng Ming looked at Bai Xi’s delicate little face.
Bai Xi was startled. He agreed to it later? Why? Why did he agree?
“I said that after. I chose to face it instead of avoiding it.” Feng Ming suddenly held Bai Xi’s hand against his heart. His face was no longer indifferent and his aloofness was replaced by gentleness.
Bai Xi pulled back her hand and her tone lost its previous confidence. “When did you agree?”
“Is it important?”
“It is.”
“I forgot.” Feng Ming smiled faintly. “How about I tell you when I remember?”
Bai Xi snorted softly. “Hm. Next time, it’ll be a betrothal and not a promise.”
The corners of Feng Ming’s lips raised and he agreed. “Okay.”
“Also, my life in the future is something I will decide for myself.”
“Okay.”
“Then, can you let me down now?”
“Okay.”
Bai Xi was stunned at Feng Ming’s straightforward promise. When did this man become so talkative? Bai Xi went to sit back in her original position, but…
There was a sudden pain on her scalp. It was only then when she realised that her hair was knotted.
“What did you do?”
Feng Ming said nothing, but his eyes looked at the knotted hair as he admired his handiwork.
Bai Xi wanted to untie it, but as soon as her hands touched her hair, Feng Ming grabbed her wrists. “I’ll do it.”
“Do it properly.” He was the only one next to her so she wasn’t surprised by his response.
“I’ll bind your hair, wife!” Feng Ming’s cheeks were flushed.
He was shy? He was actually shy? Bai Xi blinked, as if she didn’t quite believe what she saw. After making sure she saw correctly, she smiled. It turned out that this man could also be shy.
“Don’t you think that as long as you tie my hair like this, we are husband and wife?” He shouldn’t be so innocent.
Feng Ming shook his head.
“Hm? No?” Then why did he tie this knot for?
“Tied it to cut off the rotten peach blossoms1.”
“Eh?” What was the connection between the knot and the people? Wait, was he maybe thinking… “Do you want this knot here to tell the world that we are a couple?”
Feng Ming shook his head again, “It’s not the world, it’s aimed at your rotten peach blossoms.”
“Boring. Why don’t you say it’s your rotten peach blossoms.”
“That’s fine, as long as you can cut off the rotten peach blossoms.” Feng Ming nodded cautiously in agreement.
Bai Xi rolled his eyes and worked on untying the knot in her hair. Unfortunately, no matter how much she tried to untie it, she couldn’t untie the knot.
“Madam Feng, only I can deal with this knot,” Feng Ming said with a smile.
“Who says it’s only you?” Since she couldn’t deal with it, she could just use a knife.
However, when she had just taken out the dagger, Feng Ming took it away. Before she could say anything, she saw her dagger get thrown out of the window.
“You should be careful around knives.”
“You…” Bai Xi was angry and annoyed.
“I’m tired.” Feng Ming ignored the discomfort in Bai Xi’s eyes. His golden eyes were full of innocence.
“Then sleep. No one will bother you.” What was that look in his eyes? It was as if she had bullied him.
“If you watch me. I can’t sleep.”
“…” Bai Xi snorted coldly and looked to the side.
“If you sit across from me, I can’t sleep.”
Bai Xi moved again, almost sitting outside of the carriage.
“But, you should sit across from me.”
“Oi, what do you want?” He didn’t like this and that, so she tolerated it one by one. He thought she was willing to sit here, but who was the one who killed her horse? Who was the one who made her get in the carriage? Also, who was the one who tied their hair? Now he was preventing her from sitting outside.
Feng Ming pointed to the position beside him. “I want you to sit here.”
“Go to sleep. Don’t talk so much nonsense.”
“If you come here, I will think about untying this knot.”
Bai Xi glanced at the knotted hair, then at Feng Ming. She then got up and sat beside him.
Feng Ming licked his lips and smiled. He leaned his head on Bai Xi and closed his eyes.
“You…”
“Shhh, don’t make a noise. I’m really tired.” In fact, he was really tired. He hadn’t closed his eyes for a few days in order to come back on his birthday. He thought he could have had a good sleep last night, but unexpectedly this woman ran away again.
Bai Xi really closed her mouth and stopped talking. She just picked a comfortable position and let him lean on her. It didn’t take long before she heard the sound of even breathing coming from her side. Bai Xi lowered her head a little and glanced at Feng Ming. He fell asleep so soon? Perhaps it was as he said. He was really tired.
Bai Xi didn’t immediately look away, but stared intently at this man who was like a child of God. It was as if this was the first time she was so close, so she looked at him carefully.
God really loved this man. Even his skin was as smooth and delicate as a newborn baby. Bai Xi couldn’t help poking his soft and smooth skin.
It was really soft. Bai Xi seemed to be addicted. Bai Xi frowned when he saw the man, whose sleeping face was like a holy water lily, frown.
Was he awake? Fortunately not. Bai Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If he woke up because of her, she would be miserable. Bai Xi did not continue to touch the sleeping Feng Ming, but just looked at him quietly. She suddenly remembered what he said. After he knew his mind, he did not choose to escape, but chose to face it. On the other hand, she chose to escape, didn’t she? Was it really like that? Was she hiding from him really because she really liked him?
From the very beginning, she felt that her heart liked him. But she didn’t run away and faced it, didn’t she? Otherwise, why would she make an appointment with him for the next six months? But, why was she hiding from him now? Why? Finally, Bai Xi leaned against the car wall and closed her eyes. She kept asking herself, why was this?
The carriage continued onward. Qing Wu, who was driving the carriage, turned his head and glanced at the curtain, wondering what his master was talking about with Gentleman Yue Hua for so long. Moreover, he was still so calm. He thought that his master and Gentleman Yue Hua would be fighting. Did you know… Hey, no matter what, his master was several times better than Gentleman Yue Hua. How could young miss Bai Xi give up his master and choose Gentleman Yue Hua?
The sound of the horses running echoed throughout the mountain.
When dusk fell, Qing Wu drove to the nearby city and stopped in front of an inn. When the carriage stopped, Feng Ming and Bai Xi woke up at almost the same time.
Bai Xi blinked. How was she was lying in Feng Ming’s arms? She sat up straight, not daring to look at him. She remembered that she was clearly leaning against the carriage wall. Why did she wake up lying in his arms?
In response to her reaction, Feng Ming just smiled faintly without taking any other actions. “Madam Feng, don’t be ashamed.”
“You are ashamed.” When she finished talking, Bai Xi bent over to get out of the car, but unfortunately, she forgot that their hair was still knotted.
Bai Xi touched her sore scalp. “You can undo it now.”
“There’s no hurry. You will be hungry for a day, so eat before you speak.” After Feng Ming finished speaking, he picked up Bai Xi and got out of the carriage.
“Ma… Master,” Qing Wu cried out, surprise in his eyes. He was right. Not only did his master and Gentleman Yue Hua tie their hair, but his master also held Gentleman Yue Hua. He felt faint.
The most important thing is that he seemed to see… see a clear red mark on Gentleman Yue Hua ‘s neck. That… That was… Oh my god. It couldn’t be true. It must not have been left by his master.
“What’s wrong with him?” Bai Xi looked at Qing Wu, who was walking with his back straight and pale with fright. She then looked up at Feng Ming.
“Motion sickness.”
Motion sickness? Bai Xi suddenly laughed. What kind of coachman would get motion sickness? This was probably the funniest joke she had ever heard.
“Where are we?” She had forgotten to ask him where they were going before. She only knew that the carriage did not return to the city, but continued outside the city.
“Peng Cheng.”
“No, what I want to ask is where are we going?”
“Where does Madam Feng want to go?” Feng Ming suddenly lowered his body, whispering in her ear.
“Qing Cheng.” Her original destination was Qing Cheng.
“Madam Feng can go wherever she wants, just follow her husband.”
“Don’t forget that I am a man now. Aren’t you afraid that others will mistakenly think that you like men?” Bai Xi looked at Qing Wu, who had dilated pupils and an o-shaped mouth. She knew that this monkey did not have motion sickness at all, but was frightened. He was afraid that he could not accept that his master whom he had always admired would have such an intimate behavior with a man.
“Not afraid.” Feng Ming took Bai Xi’s hand and walked into the inn.
“Unexpectedly, there is also a first-class building here.” Bai Xi looked up at the plaque and then at Feng Ming. “The first-class building belongs to you.” Bai Xi didn’t ask since she was pretty sure she was right.
“It’s also yours.”
“It’s not mine,” Bai Xi whispered.
“Sooner or later it will be yours.”
Although it is night now, Yi Pin Lou was full of guests. Unexpectedly, Yi Pin Lou was not only successful in the capital, but also in this small city.
The man in front of Yi Pin Lou saw the visitors at the door and immediately greeted them with a smile on his face. When he looked at them, he knew that the three guests were either rich or powerful. “Do the honoured guests want to eat or stay?”
“Two Sky rooms,” Qing Wu said after he returned to his senses.
“Yes, yes, please come this way, honoured guest,” the man flattered.
Because their sleeves were somewhat wide, even if Feng Ming held Bai Xi’s hand at this time, the wide sleeves hid it. The distance between the two was very close, so outsiders couldn’t see them holding hands. But Qing Wu was an exception. He could see it clearly, so his eyes were so ‘wounded’.
The people on the first floor, who were eating and talking, raised their heads and glanced at the three people who just arrived. Their eyes fell on the two white figures next to each other. They only spared them a glance and didn’t continue to look at them. They continued to eat, talk, and smile. If they had known that one of them was His Excellency, The Ice Lord, the man they admired, who knew what kind of reaction they would have.
When they arrived at the number 2 Sky room, Bai Xi was about to walk in, but remembered the knot in her hair again. Just as she was about to speak, an arm wrapped around her waist and brought her into the room.
“Hey, this is my room. Your room is next door,” Bai Xi reminded him kindly.
“No, this is also my room. The next door is Qing Wu.” Feng Ming also explained very kindly.
Bai Xi was startled. It was only then when she realized that Qing Wu was no longer behind her, and the door of the room was closed by someone.
“Bai Xi, I suddenly thought of how you should take responsibility for me.”
“Hm?” What?
“Not as good as us…”
“No!” Bai Xi objected anxiously, because she had remembered what he meant by being responsible.
“I just want to say that it’s better that we watch the moon together for a while. If you don’t want to, then forget it.” Feng Ming continued walking, as if he didn’t see Bai Xi’s red and white face.
It didn’t take long for their meal to arrive. After the two of them had finished eating, Feng Ming didn’t bring up the bath incident.
“Bai Xi, it’s better than…”
“No!”
Feng Ming smiled. “Why are you so nervous? Are you scared?” Feng Ming reached out to stroke the smooth skin on Bai Xi’s face, and stroked her somewhat messy hair carefully at the same time.
“No,” Bai Xi replied anxiously.
“Really?”
“Really.”
“I remember that last time you undressed for me and didn’t wait for me to take a bath. Do you want to make it up now?” Feng Ming lowered his body and slowly exhaled in a charming voice.
Bai Xi’s heart skipped a beat, and the image of the pool that day appeared in her mind. Her cheeks also became red.
“You promised you would be responsible for me,” he said slowly with countless grievances in his eyes.
She coughed. “These two things are unrelated.” He was aggrieved? Just because he was wronged? Wasn’t she also wronged? She was asked to be responsible to him for no reason.
Golden eyes looked up at the roof beams above his head for a long time before he nodded. “Okay, they are not related.”
Before Bai Xi had time to do anything, she heard some words that scared her. “Then let’s do (forbidden) love. That is the best way to be responsible for me.” Bai Xi felt as though she had been picked up. In the next moment, she, no, they were both lying on the bed, their postures very ambiguous.
