Las viudas de la dinastía Song eran fáciles de casar - Capítulo 203
Oh no, something's wrong with me. I think I'm falling for him. How could this be? I like Qingcheng!
Di Wei emerged with swollen, black eyes and disheveled clothes. Shaking off Xi Ruohu's support, he knelt on one knee, saying with extreme shame, "Young Master, I have failed in my duty."
Long Fengming ignored him and instead said with a smile, "Li Bao, bring me the comb. Jian Yue, your hair is very beautiful. I used to comb my mother's hair often. Her hair was also black, shiny, soft, and smooth, very beautiful. I combed my mother's hair for ten years. Later, as I got older and had more things to do, I rarely combed her hair anymore."
Qing Jianyue glanced at Di Gang kneeling on the ground, then at Xi Ruohu and Li Bao, who were expressionless, and forced a smile.
In Long Fengming's hands, hair was handled with the same skill and ease as he wielded a sword. He combed, straightened, parted, twisted, braided, and tied it. Finally, when he had had his fill, he ordered someone to bring a mirror. When Qing Jianyue looked at herself, she almost fell off her chair and onto the ground.
“He, he, he,” Kiyomi Tsuki stammered, pointing at the person in the mirror, “Good, good, good…”
Is it pretty?
Long Fengming walked to the desk with a grin, picked up a brush and dipped it in the rouge box.
"How stupid."
Kiyomi Tsuki finally managed to retrieve that word from his memory bank. Ryuu Fūmō returned, extended his long, slender, fair left hand to lift Kiyomi Tsuki's chin, and with his right hand, he used a pen to draw something on Kiyomi Tsuki's forehead.
"Young Master Long, what are you drawing on my forehead?"
Kiyoshi felt a chill run down her spine, sensing that Ryufengming harbored ill intentions.
You'll find out soon enough.
Long Fengming's beautiful phoenix eyes gazed at him, and Qing Jianyue felt his face flush and his heart race, as if he were sitting on a cloud. Oh no, something really seems wrong with me. Just then, he heard voices outside again, as if there were many people. The moment the carved door opened, Long Fengming moved aside, and Long Fengxiang flew into the room first, hands on his hips, blinking one black eye and shouting, completely forgetting the humiliation he had just suffered.
"Kiyomizuki, young master, I'm here again. This time I'm not... oh, oh, oh, Kiyomizuki, what's with that outfit? Hahaha, it's hilarious!"
Kang Boying, who came in next, couldn't help but laugh when he saw Qing Jianyue. Anxiang, Xi Ruohu, and Li Bao also turned their faces away and chuckled. Even Di Wei forgot his shame and grinned foolishly.
"What are you laughing at? What did I do?" Qing Jianyue stared at them like an idiot, finding the people from Tianlong Fortress and Fengyue Manor increasingly strange. She stood up, snatched the mirror from Li Bao's hand, looked at herself, and immediately jumped up and down. "Long Fengming, what are you drawing on my face?"
Long Fengming crossed his arms and smiled, "Azalea, you look even more beautiful with your hairstyle."
"You're messing with me." Qingjian Yue scrunched up her face like a pretzel. "Why?"
Long Fengming laughed like a mischievous child, "Young Master hit my most beloved younger brother, and I only drew a flower on your face. Is there anything else you're not satisfied with?"
“I do,” Kiyomizu pleaded. “You can punch me a couple of times, but don’t draw flowers on my face. It’s too ridiculous, people will laugh their heads off.”
Long Fengming said gently, "No, young master is a distinguished guest of my Tianlong Fortress and Fengyue Manor. I cannot allow you to be harmed in the slightest. Moreover, I have made a promise to Lord Lu."
Kiyoshi thought to himself: Long Fengming is indeed a smiling tiger; he killed me in the blink of an eye.
Long Fengxiang was overjoyed. As expected, his brother was amazing; he had avenged him without making a sound.
"Get up, Diwei. From today onwards, your only responsibility is to protect the young master's safety; you don't need to do anything else," Long Fengming solemnly instructed. Diwei was good in every way, except that he was too rigid, sticking to his principles and showing no flexibility whatsoever.
Long Fengming then said calmly, "Anxiang, since you don't like serving the young master, from today onwards, you'll help out in the kitchen."
Anxiang's expression changed drastically, and she knelt down on the ground with a thud. "Young Master, this servant knows she was wrong. This servant will never dare to do it again."
"Go down. I don't like people who are half-hearted."
Despite Long Fengming's smiling face, the light in his phoenix eyes was absolutely icy cold.
Looking at Anxiang's face, which was even more ashen than a corpse's, Qingjian Yue couldn't help but feel sorry for her, but he didn't plead for her. Long Fengming's punishment wasn't excessive. Instead of doing his job properly, he spent his days indulging in fantasies; such a person would inevitably cause trouble sooner or later. Fortunately, he didn't hold it against her; anyone else would have considered what had just happened a great disgrace.
Anxiang retreated in despair.
Long Fengming apologized, "I am ashamed. Please forgive my oversight, which led to my servant's rudeness. Please do not take it to heart, young master."
Kiyomi chuckled, rubbed her stomach, sniffed, and looked like a hungry cat. "I'm hungry."
Long Fengming was taken aback, then burst into laughter, and the others joined in. Xi Ruohu and Li Bao placed the food from the food box on the table.
Kang Boying stood with his hands behind his back, a masculine smile blooming on his face. "It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Qing Jianyue is still Qing Jianyue. Apart from becoming more beautiful, she hasn't changed at all."
Qingjian Yue smiled and said, "Master Kang has changed."
Kang Boying asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"
Qing Jianyue blinked and said playfully, "Master Kang is even more charming now. Little Fairy must be worried sick about him every day."
Kang Boying chuckled, "Naughty."
The servants withdrew, and Long Fengming invited him to sit down. After he sat down, Long Fengming smiled and said, "Just as you predicted, Young Master, the Sky Eagle Sect has fallen into Budai's clutches. We received news from Lord Lu that everything is proceeding according to plan. We are just waiting for you to make your decision."
Qing Jian Yue remained silent. He showed no joy; his expression was melancholic, heavy, and sorrowful. Kang Boying, Long Fengming, and Long Fengxiang watched him silently, waiting patiently. After a long while, Qing Jian Yue finally spoke, "Is there any movement from the Sky Eagle Sect?"
Long Fengming nodded. "They've already noticed something. Next, they'll definitely take action against you, young master."
Long Fengxiang casually tossed a peanut into his mouth.
Kiyomi Tsuki rose, walked to the window, and gazed at the pleasant scenery in the garden. In a low, sorrowful voice, she said, "This used to be my home." As she finished speaking, tears streamed down her face.
Long Fengming remained silent, as did Kang Boying. Indeed, what could be said? At this moment, any words would be superfluous.
The heavy atmosphere in the air felt like a thousand-pound stone pressing down on one's heart. Long Fengxiang scratched his head in frustration. He dreaded this kind of thing the most; if he was unhappy, he'd just find someone to fight and settle things. He jumped up and shouted, "Qing Jianyue, I'm going to drag Li Ying here. You can beat him into a swollen pig's head if you want. How about it?"
Kiyomi Tsuki raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, turned around, took out a lollipop from her pocket, tore off the wrapper, and put the candy into her mouth.
Long Fengxiang's eyes widened instantly. "You eat lollipops?"
"Yes, let me tell you, this lollipop is sold by Fu Ji. Only the candy sold by this store is the best." Qing Jianyue patiently imparted her experience. "Qingfeng gave me a lot, and this is the last one left. Do you want to eat it?" Since it was already in his mouth, he wasn't afraid that Long Fengxiang would take it from him.
However, Long Fengxiang's reaction was like that of a myna bird, repeatedly saying, "You eat lollipops? How old are you? You still eat lollipops?"
