Chapter 123: Agitated mind (part 2)

Luo Bing could accept the situation where she herself had to take the initiative to sacrifice her body to save her husband and even other brothers in the Society, but she could not tolerate her husband deciding to sacrifice her like this.

“So, you have already rescued the people of the Red Flower Society?” Luo Bing asked with her eyes down and expressionless.

Song Qingshu nodded, “Yes, they left the palace yesterday.”

“If that’s the case, why did you lie to me?” Luo Bing laughed at herself, “This question is really stupid, take it as if I didn’t ask it.”

Song Qingshu was thinking about Xia Qingqing. Even though he knew that this was not the right time, he still asked, “Did you say something to Madame Yuan yesterday?”

“Yes, the situation was clear for all to see, I just pointed out that you have only been deceiving her.” On Luo Bing’s face flashed a hint of pleasure from revenge, “She understood the truth and naturally went to find someone who can really avenge her husband.”

“So she has left Yanjing City?” Song Qingshu asked, suppressing his anger, and when he thought that Xia Qingqing didn’t even say goodbye to him before leaving, he became even more angry.

“Of course, you have been lying to her, but you are not the only man in the world who can avenge her husband. After Madame Yuan realized that, she went to find that man.”

Seeing Song Qingshu’s painful expression, Luo Bing only felt that her revenge was not enough. What could make a man angry the most? Naturally, it was when another important man appeared in the life of a woman who he loved.

“Who is that man?” Song Qingshu slowly approached Luo Bing and squeezed out a few words between his teeth.

Xia Qingqing was the most important part of Song Qingshu’s long-term plan. In order to gain the strength to compete with Ming Cult’s leader Zhang Wuji, Song Qingshu had to take over the leaderless Golden Serpent Camp early in the game. And, winning the favor of Xia Qingqing was a prerequisite to that plan. If he could not obtain Xia Qingqing. All his efforts would go down the drain. _{(G: As I said in the previous chapter, the protagonist needs the women to make his plans a reality. And, he will do whatever he can to get them, even if he has to lick their feet.)}

When he thought that Xia Qingqing was almost in his own pocket, but she was taken away by Luo Bing’s few words, Song Qingshu’s eyes began to become violent.

“Just imagine it slowly. How will you feel when you see Madame Yuan is already lying on the bed of another man?” Luo Bing proudly sneered. Although she hated her husband for abandoning her, she understood in her heart that this man was the culprit behind everything.

“Do you know why I was injured last night?” Song Qingshu suddenly calmed down, and spoke without the slightest emotion in his tone.

Thinking that she was kind enough to cook porridge for him last night, Luo Bing couldn’t help but want to chop off her own hand, “You have done a lot of injustice, what’s so strange that you’d have enemies all over the world.”

“Huh!” Song Qingshu lifted up his shirt, revealing the dark red palm prints between his ribs, “This is thanks to your husband. Last night, I was soft-hearted and didn’t kill him. How could I know that when I rescued him, he plotted against me instead!”

“I didn’t expect that you were also plotting against me that day. You both husband and wife really have a tacit understanding!”

Hearing that Wen Tailai had attacked and injured Song Qingshu, Luo Bing’s eyes flashed with mist, and she muttered to herself, “It seems that Fourth Brother still cares about me very much…”

Looking at the happy little woman on the other side, all Song Qingshu’s negative emotions burst out at once, his eyes gradually turned red, and he walked closer to Luo Bing, who was sitting by the bed, step by step.

“What do you want to do?” Luo Bing finally realized something was wrong with Song Qingshu, and she cried out in dismay.

“I don’t know when Qingqing will lie on another man’s beds, but I am quite sure that you will lie in another man’s arms before her.” Standing in front of the bed, Song Qingshu looked down at Luo Bing.

Her dress could not hide the plump fullness of a woman, as well as her curvaceous and slender waist. All these features showed that the owner of such a figure was at the peak of a woman’s age, like a mature and juicy peach. She was a little more plump than an average woman, and she also had a delicate and fragile aura that ordinary women lacked. 

Song Qingshu was not a man without desires. Before this, he focused more on strengthening his personal strength, and he always pursued Xia Qingqing and others with patience. It was the principle of slow simmering, and only at the right time could he harvest a sincere relationship.

But now, facing Luo Bing, Song Qingshu’s mood was completely different. There was nothing behind Luo Bing worthy of his plans, so there was no need to carefully build up the relationship between the two. He only needed to appreciate this charming young woman with purely a man’s eyes. Moreover, she was a married woman, unlike a pure girl, Song Qingshu was not worried about any responsibility he needed to take after the incident. And, when he thought that she was someone else’s wife, that added a pleasure of doing something forbidden in his heart.

Luo Bing had already read everything from his eyes, and the desire of a man had never been so undisguised. Her delicate frame trembled slightly, and when he bent over, she wanted to get away from Song Qingshu’s arms.

However, Song Qingshu’s martial arts realm was far too strong. She felt a strong force on her shoulders, and she fell on the bed.

She struggled to get up, but Song Qingshu didn’t give her any chance, and her whole body was quickly pressed down.

Some people say that a woman is born to bear the weight of a man’s body, but if the man who is pressing on her is not her lover, how would the woman feel?

Luo Bing had completely woken up from her anger by now, and what followed was extreme panic. She knew what was coming. If she let this happen today, she would bring shame to her husband that would never be washed away.

So she began to struggle desperately, hoping that the other party’s serious injury had not healed, and his hands and feet might not have much strength.

“Song Qingshu, do you know who is the most despised person in the wulin?” Luo Bing tried her best to avoid the kisses that rained on her face. Using her limbs was futile, so she could only hope for the power of words.

“A flower thief, I know.” Seeing the woman shaking her head desperately, Song Qingshu frowned, and his voice came out vaguely, “But since your husband has given you to me, you are my woman. What I want to do with my woman should be a matter of course.”

“Song Qingshu, you ba*tard!” Feeling that his hand was reaching into her clothes, Luo Bing’s voice was already full of tears.

“Curse as much as you like, it’ll be a bit boring if you don’t curse me.”

“Shameless!”

The veil fluttered, and a pair of snow-white calves kicked in mid-air in vain, then they suddenly straightened and slumped down, and stopped struggling in resignation.

Luo Bing’s cursing just now did not cause any turbulence in Song Qingshu’s heart. Her gentle humming sound was like a drug, and he couldn’t get enough of it. 

“Humph!” A cold voice suddenly came from outside the window.

Song Qingshu’s whole body suddenly turned stiff, he retreated from Luo Bing’s body, and hurriedly stood up, then he looked towards the window.

As soon as Luo Bing got out of his embrace, she quickly bit her red lips, picked up the dress scattered on the bed, and put it on silently. After she finished dressing, she disappeared at the door of the room. Song Qingshu didn’t mean to stop her in the slightest and looked outside the window vigilantly.

“I didn’t expect that we would meet again under such circumstances.” Song Qingshu smiled bitterly, thinking that he really should go find a fortune teller to predict such disasters. His luck was really too bad.

“I didn’t expect that after such a long time, you are still doing such things like a vulgar dog. You can only use this despicable method to seize a woman’s body.”

With a bang, the door of the room was pushed open by an invisible force. With her blue skirt dragging on the ground, a beautiful and slender woman walked in. Her eyes were bright, as clear as crystal, and the moonlight faintly passed through the skirt on her slender visage, as if a fairy from heaven had descended to the mortal world.

Song Qingshu has always both loved and hated that figure in his heart. Song Qingshu pulled the quilt to cover his body, looked at the woman in front of him, and said with a wry smile, “I thought you would come a lot earlier.”

Thinking of being fooled by two little kids to travel to Changbai Mountain and staying in the ice and snow for half a year, the woman’s cheeks couldn’t help but get slightly hot, “It’s not too late to kill you now.”

“Anyway, we are husband and wife, don’t  just go calling me a dog whenever you open your mouth. If I were a dog, then what would you do?” Song Qingshu glanced at her in disgust.

Some Words: About the meaning of the term “Flower Thief”. The name of this novel is 偷香高手 (tōu xiāng gāo shǒu), which literally translates as Flower Thief Master; here the characters 偷香 (tōu xiāng) comes from 偷香竊玉 (tōu xiāng qiè yù) meaning Flower Thief, which is an idiom for “Philandering” or “Secret illicit s*x”.

On the other hand, the literal meaning of the term 采花贼 (cǎi huā zéi) is also Flower Thief, but figuratively it denotes the term “R*pist”. And the last time I checked the dictionary, the terms Philanderer and R*pist were not the same. A Philanderer is a womanizer, who readily or frequently enters into casual s*xual relationships with women.

So, as you can see the two are vastly different in terms of meaning and significance. Therefore, if I were to choose an English version of the name of this novel, it would be Philandering Master, or Philandering Expert, or Master Philanderer and so on. However, it would be wrong to call it “R*apist Master”.

Also, I am not saying that there is no r*pe in this novel, but I would like to remind you that most Wuxia (Harem) webnovels have r*pe in them in one form or another, so I don’t see how this one will be any different. I hope this clears any confusions you may have about the novel.

PS: About the lack of detail in this scene, I have already mentioned that the author starts to write detailed scenes after about 300+ chapter. So, yah…it will get much better. And, THIS SCENE IS NOT OVER YET…
