Chapter 160: Inseparable Whole

Chapter 160: Inseparable Whole

Compared to last time, when she was at the Rouge Pavilion, Yun Niang’s clothes were even thinner than before, her waist even tighter, and her chest even plumper. She gracefully and leisurely entered, even walking in a line like a cat, that ample buttocks swaying left and right. She enticingly smiled at Jing Wan, batting her eyes, and even flirtatiously waving her hand.

At this moment, Jing Wan really didn’t know what kind of expression she should use to face her.

On the contrary, Li Hong Yuan didn’t even bat an eye, having a piece of fish meat with the bones removed put into Jing Wan’s bowl. “Aren’t you hungry? Quickly eat.” That attitude was just like completely having Yun Niang treated as an invisible person. Feeding his hungry wife was the most important thing right now, everything else, never mind his great aunt, even if his imperial grandfather crawled out from the imperial tombs, he would still need to move aside.

Seeing this, Jing Wan hesitated for a moment. Her stomach was indeed hungry. It was true that the other party was once a princess, but she ‘didn’t know’, and she was also in front of a certain qinwang. That’s why, Jing Wan just focused on eating.

Seeing a certain unfilial grandnephew ignoring her, Yun Niang’s mood wasn’t all that great. The mood not so great Princess Heyang spun her eyes, that whole stomach full of evil ideas seemingly about to leak out from her eyes, and the red mole under the corner of her right eye appeared increasingly bright. Twisting her waist, she walked up next to Li Hong Yuan, brazenly and boldly throwing herself onto Li Hong Yuan directly, extending her finger to poke his head. “You conscience lacking heartless bastard, having someone new, you forget the old. This humble one was wholeheartedly devoted to you, yet you’re this heartless and cold.” As she said this, she even appropriately dabbed the corner of her eyes.

Jing Wan stared at her in shock. Should say, as expected of Princess Heyang, who dared to wantonly raise male lovers, and single-handedly beheaded the Northern Xiongnu King? Try switching her with someone else, see who would dare casually pounce on a man, and moreover, the other party was even her grandnephew. Then, seeing Yun Niang deliberately have those two lumps on her chest pressed onto Jin Qinwang, the corner of Jing Wan’s mouth also couldn’t help twitching.

Li Hong Yuan’s face was as dark as ink. Originally, he finally got to hold his wife that he’s been thinking about for a long time with great difficulty today, and although he didn’t completely satisfy his craving, it doesn’t change the fact that he was in a good mood. But there just had to be an insensible one, coming to stir up trouble. Even for his personal servants, he all didn’t let them come near him much, let alone some unrelated old woman. In addition to that concentrated rouge smell, completely different from his Jiao Jiao’s relaxing scent, it severely affected his appetite. “Get lost——” The violent aura on the living Enma was on full blast, furious, ruthless, and cold. The words ‘living Enma’, in this moment, vividly emerged.

Even Princess Heyang, who has gone through the great storms and waves, experienced through the slaughters of the battlefield, then extensively traveled in all directions for decades, in this moment, all jolted inside. She’d long known this grandnephew wasn’t simple, and among the princes, he was that most ferocious beast hibernating in the dark. Although she didn’t know what all he’s done specifically, but every time the other princes suffered a great loss, nine times out of ten all had him participating within. Compared to her other grandnephews, who abided by the rules, emphasized bearing, but in actuality were nothing more than dignified hypocrites, it was obvious that Li Hong Yuan, this grandnephew that was similar to herself, not having Confucian etiquette taken seriously, that was further to her liking. However, this brat’s temper sometimes, and also his malicious and ruthless ways in private, similarly made one hate.

Yun Niang paused. Afterwards, as if nothing happened, sat upright, waving the fragrant handkerchief in hand, “What, this is worrying your wife will get jealous?”

Li Hong Yuan once again ignored her, reaching out and rubbing Jing Wan’s head. And in that instant, the terrifying aura just now completely disappeared, “Scared? Don’t worry, no matter who this prince goes against, all won’t go against you. Quickly eat, don’t bother with this old woman.”

Li Hong Yuan just now was a bit terrifying, but Jing Wan really wasn’t frightened, just having a ‘turns out the rumors were true’ feeling. Jin Qinwang, in front of her, indeed restrained his temper. Just, calling Princess Heyang an old woman, wasn’t that equal to picking someone’s wound and stepping on it? Yun Niang appeared far younger than her actual age, her figure also has been maintained very well, and she also wore relatively bright colors. It can be seen, she very much cared about her age, and moreover, absolutely refused to submit to old age. Casting a glance, and sure enough, the one with a dark look became Yun Niang. The playful seductive air around her was swept clean, and instead filled with a bit of sharpness.

Unfortunately, towards Li Hong Yuan, this didn’t have any threat at all. No matter what you do, his tall mountain all won’t budge. Moreover, this was his territory, anger him, and he undoubtedly will let someone have you thrown out. This kind of thing, he definitely was capable of.

Have to say, Yun Niang, in this lifetime of hers, how many men has she toyed with in her palm? Adding up the numbers, it seems she’s only suffered a huge loss on Li Hong Yuan, and has been wanting to secretly compensate herself back this whole time. However, it was very clear, she has continuously failed to succeed. As for using his secret to threaten him, hehe, afraid as soon as there’s that bit of development, one will have already been silenced by him. This bit, Yun Niang was very clear of. Ever since she learned about some of Li Hong Yuan’s true nature, he just directly sent her a person. Serving was one thing, but how it was in reality, everyone was actually well aware inside. Yun Niang calmly accepted, and when using, didn’t hold back in the slightest either.

Yun Niang can’t do anything to him, but…..Her eyes spun, her gaze landing on Jing Wan. Then thinking back to this living Enma’s attitude towards her, she thus shifted her target, “Little girl, do you know who this humble one is?”

Jing Wan hesitated a moment, but still decided to ‘tell the truth’, “Heard grandmother mention before.”

“Oh? Luo Chen-shi? Why would she mention this humble one to you?” Yun Niang curiously asked.

“Because after one met Yun Niang at the Rouge Pavilion, this one went back and mentioned to grandmother. Grandmother said it was most likely you. After all, she has a very deep impression of you.” Speaking of which, one can’t just have one’s own mama thrown out. It was better to let grandmother ‘shoulder the pot’ instead. Yun Niang most likely won’t go as far as to seek out grandmother to confirm, so this lie won’t be exposed.

“Aiyoo, Luo Chen-shi having a deep impression of this one, that is deservedly so. After all, at the time, this one almost had your grandfather pulled onto the bed.” Yun Niang delicately giggled like a young maiden, flowers violently blossoming.

Jing Wan shook her head, laughing in spite of herself, “Things are actually quite different from what Yun Niang thinks. Grandmother said, Yun Niang has a broad learning and extensive knowledge, experienced and wise. Although born a daughter, acted like man, harboring one’s country and the world, the ‘headdress not at all inferior to the beard and brow’. Moreover, your heart further pitied women more than men. Even if one was a woman, there were still quite a few that entirely fell for you. Grandmother even said, if she hadn’t married already, she perhaps would also fall for Yun Niang.”

“Luo Chen-shi really said this?” Yun Niang heartily laughed out, slapping the table, “If I’d long known this, why would I’ve bothered with Luo Pei Shan, would’ve directly gone to seduce Luo Chen-shi.”

Seeing Yun Niang expose her true form, Jing Wan lightly coughed, softly smiling, “Yun Niang, a lady’s image, virtuous and wise.”

In a blink of an eye, Yun Niang let out another seductive look, even giving Jing Wan a bashful smile.

“Don’t pretend to be cute here, making one nauseous.” Li Hong Yuan faintly spoke.

“What, your wife can even let you get pregnant? What the hell are you nauseous for?” Yun Niang unhesitantly retorted back.

“Keh….” Jing Wan chokingly coughed, quickly covering her mouth. As expected of Princess Heyang, when tough, really is…………….

Li Hong Yuan coldly casted her a glance, “Careful of what you say, lead my Jiao Jiao astray, and this prince will have your Rouge Pavilion burned down.”

Yun Niang suddenly reached out, pulling over Jing Wan’s arm and having her sleeve lifted, red blossoms blooming on the surface of her arm. Seeing this, she coldly snorted, “You think you’re some good thing, would an ordinary man do this kind of thing to their fiancee? Burn down my Rouge Pavilion? Right now, your wife also has a share, if you have the guts, go ahead and burn it.”

Li Hong Yuan slapped her hand aside, having Jing Wan’s sleeve pulled back down, “After burning down your Rouge Pavilion, this prince can give her an even bigger one.” Rich and imposing, very unconcerned.

“You still have to ask whether or not your wife is willing to let you raise.” Yun Niang could tell, this Luo family third miss, in certain areas, was actually a lot like her————never once thought of wanting to adhere to men.

This time, Yun Niang practically poked a hornet’s nest. How can Wan Wan be the same as this old woman. Wan Wan indeed didn’t adhere to men, but that didn’t mean that she was able to accept anything. Her not adhering was on an emotional level, wanting equal treatment, feelings of absolute devotion, never to be betrayed. Materialistic things were nothing more than things added onto this foundation. If she accepts you as a person, then the things you give to her, regardless of worth, expensive or cheap, she would all happily accept. Right now, the problem was Jing Wan didn’t care, because she didn’t care about him as a person, that’s why she didn’t care for the things he gave her. He does want to have Jing Wan raised into a Jiao Jiao; he wants to give Jing Wan the world’s best, and the most of, but the most crucial problem hasn’t been solved yet.

(T/N: I feel like he’s just triggered cuz Yun Niang has a harem lol.)

In that moment, Yun Niang just felt herself being targeted by a venomous snake, able to ruthlessly lunge at her at any time, instantly meeting a violent death. Her scalp went numb, her back growing cold.

“Ah Yuan……..” Jing Wan reached out and placed her hand on the back of his.

Li Hong Yuan instantly returned to his sense. Seeing Jing Wan’s delicate and slender hand, he suddenly smiled, as if spring returned to earth. He flipped his hand, holding Jing Wan’s hand, “Already half a day, yet you still haven’t eaten much. Quickly eat, else later it’ll all get cold. If you want to say something, wait until after the meal.”

He truly made one firmly witness his indefinite moody temperament, however………..

T/N: After three long chapters in a row, I’m dying here ;;v;;) But I really love this chapter just for the Yun Niang vs Li Hong Yuan moments ahaha

I really can’t think of another character in cnovels that comes close to Yun Niang’s character, especially given her age, most characters her age (she’s like almost sixty) in cnovels only fill the role of a grandmother or wise elder, and not a sexy femme fatal. Anyways is a personal favorite of mine, though I feel like what I like isn’t what most people care about.
