"This, this is too bizarre, right?" she said, dumbfounded. "Addicted? It’s my first ti hearing that one could get addicted to such a thing? And it’s not just one or two, but all won in Dayuan are like this? After they begin, they all go through this process?"
Yun Ge raised an eyebrow and then said calmly, "Otherwise, why do you think won of Dayuan marry so many n? On one hand it’s because of the law, on the other hand it’s because an addiction cos on and a single man isn’t enough to satisfy it. I rember this seems to have started with our ancestor from Divine dical Valley..."
Divined dical Valley, also known as dicine Valley, according to Yun Ge, had a very close relationship with the founding empress in the early days.
Back then, Dayuan and Dajin were allied nations, and the relationship wasn’t as tense as it is now. No one knows from when a deviant trend erged—won of Dayuan began to advocate monogamy. Given that it was a country with more n than won, if it really followed that trend, nine out of ten n would end up bachelors. Thus, our ancestor made a batch of Divine Water, which deceived all the won in the world.
The ’Divine Water’ was nad ’Addicted.’ After won drank it, they would beco addicted to it. Over ti, the practice of monogamy was replaced by polyandry. This ’Addicted’ also passed down through the bloodline to their descendants.
Dong Huiying glanced at Yun Ge mournfully, making Yun Ge feel inexplicably guilty. "Cough, the ancestor has been gone for hundreds of years, this has nothing to do with , really!"
Dong Huiying: "..."
When Dong Huiying returned to Xihui Courtyard, she heard a cold snort. She looked over and saw Shu Yu giving her a cold glance before slamming the door shut.
She felt a pang of embarrassnt rembering that she had mistakenly thought Shu Yu was Shujun before and had even forced herself on her.
Oh my God!
Covering her face, wanting to cry but having no tears, what stupid things had she done!
***
After receiving a cold stare from Shujun, Dong Huiying hung her head heavily. Just then, a large overcoat was draped over her, and turning back, she saw it was Yixuan.
"Why not wear more, my wife? Be careful not to catch a cold."
Seeing the dark circles under Yixuan’s eyes, knowing that he hadn’t slept well for the past few days, she felt very guilty.
Yixuan took her hands, and finding them a bit cold, pulled open his own robe to stuff her small hands inside.
His chest was warm, yet she instinctively wanted to withdraw her hands, mainly because she knew it must be uncomfortable. But her small paws were held tight by Yixuan.
"My wife."
"Hmm?"
She lifted her head, then suddenly a kiss landed on her lips.
It was light, soft, almost unnoticeable, and didn’t last long.
Yixuan slowly lowered his eyes, "I’m getting a little impatient, what should I do? My wife has already accepted the eldest brother and Third Brother, who’s next? Second Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, or perhaps, ?"
She was a bit stunned.
The corners of his eyes were tinged with lancholy, yet he suddenly ruffled her hair, "Forget it, pretend I didn’t say anything."
He thought he was too impulsive, the eldest brother, Third Brother, his wife... Three in one room, he thought he had been provoked.
Dong Huiying suddenly looked down, she had, it seed, been subconsciously using the ’bearing’ tactic, it was so with Zhi Chen, and now it was the sa with Yixuan.
Maybe she just couldn’t get over this emotional barrier, or maybe it was because she was too easily shy, but either way, it seed not good, very not good...
