The sound of rain grew increasingly dense beside her ears, and from ti to ti, white flashes streaked across the sky.
Perhaps because the weather had gotten a bit chilly, the warmth of the girl beside her felt very comforting to Ah Qing.
However, she sowhat did not understand.
Was her own problem such a laughable matter?
Ah Qing didn’t feel that saying she was a villain... had anything funny about it.
But the gaze of the Miss Yun in front of her... left her feeling sowhat... uncomfortable, and being looked at by Yun Qian gave Ah Qing a strange sense of sha.
She knew that now she only appeared as an ordinary woman, but no matter what, she was still a Half-Demon, not to the extent of calling herself a villain and being "looked down upon" by Yun Qian.
"....." Yun Qian seed unaware of Ah Qing’s ’discontent’; in fact, she truly hadn’t noticed it.
A villain?
Who was she talking about?
Yun Qian always felt that being a villain wasn’t necessarily a bad thing; she even hoped her husband would beco the villain he perceives.
Xu Chang’an had once considered himself a villain for bullying Yun Qian, and at that ti, Yun Qian was quite happy.
After all, if her husband beca a bad person, then as a bad woman, Miss Yun would have a reason to stay by his side.
And the villains in books were mostly greedy.
So, Yun Qian was expecting her husband to turn into a villain who bullies her... but as it stands now, this wish seed unlikely to be fulfilled, because no matter the angle, Xu Chang’an wouldn’t really count as a villain.
But the wish wouldn’t change.
Yun Qian looked up and down at the sowhat bewildered Ah Qing, gently nodding.
Hmmm.
Not to ntion that what Ah Qing did couldn’t be considered villainous, even if it barely touched the edge of villainy, Yun Qian would only find it fitting.
Yun Qian also needed a buffer zone.
Rather than having Xu Chang’an directly discover her actions, perhaps with Ah Qing laying the groundwork, her husband might better accept her identity in the future —
Miss Yun thought this way.
And since Ah Qing was already a girl on her side, so... Yun Qian’s gaze towards Ah Qing grew increasingly gentle.
Ah Qing: ".....?"
She was a bit dazed.
What happened?
What was it I asked earlier...
[I know Miss wouldn’t look down upon a Half-Demon, but what if I’m actually a bad wo... No, actually a villain?]
Ah Qing avoided Yun Qian’s gaze, her face was bewildered.
It shouldn’t be.
No matter the case, what she said shouldn’t make Yun Qian’s attitude towards her soften, right?
But Yun Qian’s gentle gaze had already answered her question.
That was, Yun Qian still wouldn’t care whether she was a villains.
This made Ah Qing, aside from being pleased, have a bit of insecurity and guilt.
After all, the reason she asked that was partly to prepare herself, to give a precaution to Yun Qian—hoping that in the future, if her identity were discovered by Miss Yun, she would rember today’s conversation.
She had hinted at her identity to Yun Qian, hoping that in the future when Miss Yun discovered she was Emperor One the bad woman, she could be forgiven.
Ah Qing thought this way.
However...
She never expected to be forgiven by Miss Yun like this... and this feeling of forgiveness was akin to being mocked, as if... Yun Qian thought it was impossible for her to do anything significant as a villain.
Looked down upon?
A woman’s competitiveness made Ah Qing feel a burst of indignation inside. She suddenly wanted to go out and commit a few bad deeds to prove her capabilities to Yun Qian.
But she eventually cald down, exhaled a deep breath, and couldn’t help but sigh.
Defeated.
Completely defeated.
In that mont, she deeply realized just how much she cared about the girl in front of her.
Just one glance from Yun Qian induced such strange psychological fluctuations in her; even if she hadn’t completely fallen yet, she wasn’t far off.
"Miss Yun, you... truly are a strange person." Ah Qing gently rubbed her brow.
"Mm." Yun Qian nodded, rembering Qinling, Wen Li, and Li Zhibai had all said similar words.
Yun Qian blinked; she didn’t know if in a woman’s heart, the word ’strange’ held the sa tune as "like?"
Otherwise...
It seed like all the girls who called her strange cared a lot about her?
Yun Qian found it a bit odd, just as she had thought about sothing a long ti ago.
These girls ought to place all their attention on Xu Chang’an, but the truth was, Yun Qian noticed that sotis they liked looking at her too.
Luckily, Yun Qian had asked Xu Chang’an, knowing he wouldn’t be unhappy about her being looked at by the girls.
He didn’t care, and neither did Miss Yun.
If they wanted to look, let them look.
Yun Qian knew sotis her husband didn’t quite like being surrounded by won, so... when he wanted peace, it was also a task for a capable wife to share so of his burdens...
With this thought, Yun Qian’s gaze toward Ah Qing grew even more gentle.
".....?"
The youthful ribbon behind Ah Qing’s head couldn’t help but sway.
She just felt... Yun Qian’s gaze at her was really strange.
To put it simply, it was sowhat like the look Zhu Pingniang occasionally gave the girls below, exactly the sa.
Ah Qing slightly bit her lip.
She now realized that unless she searched souls, it would be impossible to know what was in the mind of the girl before her.
Upon thinking this, Ah Qing paused for a mont.
Search souls?
She clicked her tongue, raising her head.
