Chapter 18: Song Liang Zhuo, a Rogue
Revenge, it’s definitely revenge!
Song Liang Zhuo’s lips pressed together tightly, his arms used strength to rein Qian Xiao Qi in and caused her to continuously wail.
Lu Liu wanted to follow them in but Song Liang Zhuo had already kicked closed the door. Lu Liu wanted to enter but didn’t dare, so she worriedly cried from outside the door: “Guye! Guye, Miss is drunk, Guye please don’t get angry with her. Guye, you’re bigger than Miss, you can’t hit her again!” Ha Pi coordinated and also barked “woof woof” at the tightly closed door a few times.
The corners of Song Liang Zhuo’s mouth twitched. That one slap of his really did strike out to strike him back. Not only did it earn him the reputation of hitting woman, it even allowed this woman in his embrace to borrow alcohol to make a scene, taking the opportunity to get revenge.
Xiao Qi seemed to regained some consciousness due to Lu Liu’s frantic cries. She quietly sat on Song Liang Zhuo’s leg and matched her fingers. But it was too dark and it was swaying too much so she matched and matched but couldn’t match a single finger.
Song Liang Zhuo gave a soft hum and tilted her head towards him, and said with his brows knitted: “Were you borrowing alcohol to take revenge?”
Xiao Qi shook her head and pouted: “I didn’t hit anyone.”
“Then who did you just hit?”
Xiao Qi blinked her eyes, innocently looked around the dusky room and spoke unconfidently: “Ha Pi?”
Song Liang Zhuo pinched Xiao Qi’s chin and turned her face over again, saying with a humph: “Are you pretending to be stupid?”
Xiao Qi shook her head. Apparently she felt dizzy, so she simply cuddled next to Song Liang Zhuo’s face and mumbled: “Xiao Qi isn’t stupid. I’m, I’m really smart!”
Song Liang Zhuo gave a light laugh and patted her back, saying softly: “Don’t hold a grudge anymore. Isn’t pretending to have lost your memories really tiring?”
“En.” Xiao Qi rubbed cheeks, whispering: “Official Song hit people, and didn’t let Xiao Qi eat full.”
“Haha, I’ve wronged you!”
“Ha Pi, also hungry. He, he got skinny!”
Song Liang Zhuo was a bit helpless. Actually he had let the dog eat all the chicken bits he carried home every other day! Song Liang Zhuo gave a bitter smile. Well, wasn’t it just that he let the dog eat it!?
The tone of the above passage is kind hard to convey. I think it’s something like he didn’t expect the dog to eat so much, but he’s comforting himself that it’s just feeding a dog, not that much loss of money.
“Xiao Qi.” Song Liang Zhou sighed and called softly.
Like, disturbing his calmness.
The moment the tip of Song Liang Zhuo’s tongue entered Xiao Qi opened her mouth and sucked it. Song Liang Zhuo’s body slightly stiffened for a moment, then slowly deepened the kiss.
She is his wife, and is the one he will hold hands with his entire life. Though her behavior was too casual and free, but it was simple and cute. He should tolerate her rudeness and slowly shape her to mature, shouldn’t he?
Song Liang Zhuo couldn’t really restrain his feelings anymore. Rationally, he was nothing but a hot blooded young man. He had his desires that he’s shy of telling others, the embarrassments that he can not say. He also must relieve himself through some means. Relieve himself of those things that he can’t bear to look straight at, can’t bear to look straight at……
Song Liang Zhuo supported Xiao Qi’s waist so that she straddled his leg. A pair of arms tightly wrapped around her and hugged her more and more tightly. His lower lip was sucked by Xiao Qi until it started stinging. Song Liang Zhuo tried pulling away and Xiao Qi already chomped onto his nose with a discontent “aawuuu”, and even pulled on it with her mouth. Song Liang Zhuo groaned in pain. Just as he was going to reach out to push he heard Xiao Qi cry: “I’m thirsty. Official Song, hic, won’t let me drink water. Wuu, stingy chicken, sticky furred!”
A stingy person is a chicken that won’t even give away a single one of their feathers. Get it? Lol.
Song Liang Zhuo sighed, drawing Xiao Qi closer and leaned on her shoulder, taking two deep breaths. Xiao Qi dizzily leaned on Song Liang Zhuo’s shoulder and cried with ‘boohoos’, her body even twisted back and forth like a loach. Song Liang Zhuo fixed her waist, not letting her move around. Only after the heat in his body slowly dispersed did he carry her up to the bed.
Xiao Qi tightly clung onto Song Liang Zhuo’s body. The more Song Liang Zhuo tried to pull her the tighter she clung, almost like she was treating him like the wine cup she previously guarded. Song Liang Zhuo gave a bitter smile and just carried her like this to the table, then poured a cup tea to feed her.
Song Liang Zhuo watched her drink the tea with a ‘gulp gulp’ and crooned: “Aren’t you drunk? What do you still need to drink water for?”
Song Liang Zhuo removed the tea cup from her mouth several times, teasing her until her mouth became an inverted crescent moon before lightly laughing and letting her smoothly finish drinking the tea.
Song Liang Zhuo, supporting Xiao Qi, moved back to the bed again, then softly and quietly laid down. Waiting in silence for a while, seeing that Xiao Qi didn’t show any intentions of letting go of him, he gave a slight sigh and pulled the bedsheet over to cover the two of them, then closed his eyes.
Come tomorrow, what should I say!? Song Liang Zhuo gave a bitter smile.
Song Liang Zhuo had actually guessed wrong this time. When morning came, Xiao Qi had already rolled over to the inner side. Lu Liu waited on Song Liang Zhuo as he freshened up while trembling with fear. Her eyes, from start to finish, didn’t dare to look towards Song Liang Zhuo even once, but rather glanced from time to time towards the inner room. Song Liang Zhuo finished tidying himself up and returned to the inner room and pinched her nose, tugging it a few times, but still didn’t see her open her eyes. Lu Liu softly moved over, seeing that Xiao Qi was still alive, secretly released a breath of relief.
Liu Heng Zhi called from outside the door. Song Liang Zhuo raised his hand to tuck in the bedsheet that Xiao Qi had kicked off again, then instructed Lu Liu: “I won’t be back until later today. If she still doesn’t sober up get her a bowl of sobering soup.”
Just happened to see this while double checking the name. It’s the ‘hangover soup’ of a certain restaurant. Doesn’t it look tasty? hangover-soup-xqw-18
Lu Liu had already started beaming when she saw him cover Xiao Qi with the bedsheet, then hearing him say that she hurriedly smiled and said: “When Miss gets drunk she’ll recover after sleeping. She’ll probably continue sleeping until noon.”
Song Liang Zhuo glanced again at Xiao Qi with her terrible sleeping posture, his brows slightly knitted then he left the room.

“What? Not willing?” Wen Ruo Shui’s red eyes turned deceitfully round.
Xiao Qi puffed her cheeks, reaching out wanting to scoop a couple back but Wen Ruo Shui had already ran out the door hugging it. Xiao Qi hurriedly ran out chasing.
That side had already ate breakfast and were currently standing in the front courtyard waiting for Ruo Shui. The three saw Ruo Shui run out hugging something in her arms and behind, chasing her was even a Qian Xiao Qi with her hair unbound, and they all looked over a bit at a loss.
Ruo Shui ran directly to hide behind Song Liang Zhuo’s back and gasped for breath: “Your wife doesn’t keep her word. She clearly said she would gift things to me but she wants to demand them back.”
Xiao Qi saw Song Liang Zhuo’s gaze which was directed at her carried some displeasure and mumbled with her head hanging: “I said she could pick a couple but she, she grabbed them all.”
Liu Heng Zhi glanced at Ruo Shui’s puffy red eyes and guessed that she was probably doing this out of a sense of revenge. But seeing her like this means her heart is broader, seems she’s laid it down.
Wen Ming Xuan was originally about to reprimand Ruo Shui but Liu Heng Zhi had already started speaking with a laugh: “Sister-in-law, don’t be upset. Whatever you lack this brother, I, will compensate sister-in-law for.”
Song Liang Zhuo walked over to obstruct Liu Heng Zhi’s line of sight and fixed Xiao Qi’s opened collar. With a dark expression he spoke in a low voice: “Why didn’t you rest properly before coming out?”
Xiao Qi pressed her lips together aggrieved, saying in a low voice: “My things.”
“Uh-huh?”
Song Liang Zhuo only let out two sounds and Xiao Qi obediently closed her mouth.
Wen Ruo Shui lifted her chin, pleased, and said: “You’ll have to go to Ruzhou anyways. I’ll just find some good things for you to play with once you arrive, so stingy!”
Something like this maybe

Wen Ruo Shui’s mouth twitched and her heart felt uneasy. Lowering her head to look at these dozen hairpins gestured with her chin towards the manservant. She waited for the manservant to lift up the hem of his skirt, then put all of it there, giving a humph: “Wait until the day after tomorrow to return it to Xiao Qi, understood? If I find out that you gave it back to her early, even if I have to crawl back from Ruzhou I still won’t let you off!”
I couldn’t find the exact picture, and I forgot the time period of this novel… but generally, the clothing is a robe and servants would lift the hem of their outer skirt to hold stuff that would probably be hard to hold in their hands like… pebbles? Idk, they probably only rarely did it because being elegant used to be such a huge thing.
manservant-xqw-18
The manservant submissively promised. Wen Ruo Shui walked out several steps before running back again, giving a humph: “I’ll be telling Xiao Qi how many I took. If you dare to embezzle watch your skin!”
“watch your skin” is implying that she’ll skin him.
Wen Ruo Shui saw the manservant instantly become halfway shorter and nodded with satisfaction. Looks like that phrase “watch your skin” that mother uses at home was really useful, no wonder she never leaves out this phrase whenever she lectured the servants.
Wen Ruo Shui bent over and picked through it for a long time, finally picking out several white colored elegant ones and tucked them away in her bosom before following the rest out. Ruo Shui didn’t know, these few that she picked out were things that old man Qian brought back from overseas, and he called several specialists to make those few hairpins. On top it was weighed with all colors of colored glass and colorless crystal, each pendant could produce a rainbow of colors underneath the sunlight, and they’re also the most rare ones Xiao Qi had.
Years later, when glass appeared for the first time on the market at a high price, the already very wise and virtuous Xiao Qi had, in the middle of the street, pulled Song Liang Zhuo’s collar and gave him an aggrieved beating.
