Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 14.1

Chapter 14.1 - Making more waves




Li Jingsheng carried Lou Qingwu into the residence but didn’t see Lou Qufeng.

Because of the emperor’s birthday banquet, Lou Qufeng had already entered the palace earlier that day.

As he wasn’t there, Li Jingsheng could only temporarily place her inside the rooms she lived in three years ago -- Leaning Wind Pavilion.

Lou Qingwu told him to place her outside the pavilion as there are gender differences.

In Liyang town, they were forced to stay in the same rooms but now that at Lou residence, there’s no need to make idle gossip for other people.

Furthermore, she’d already reached her goal so if she keeps on playing with him, the person who will get burned won’t be Lou Lianxin, but her.

Li Jingsheng didn’t refuse as outside of the residence, he spoke out of anger but in reality, he’d never really speak up for Lou Qingwu in front of Lou Qufeng.

Because in addition to his left prime minister rank, he’s also his future father-in-law with a rank higher than him.

And today, he attracted too much attention and didn’t give face to Lou Lianxin.

She was after all, his fiancee so not giving her face was equivalent to not giving Lou Qufeng face.

After calming down, he started to regret his actions because he was really brash today.

After hearing that Lou Qufeng wasn’t in right now, he let out a sigh of relief, comforted Lou Qingwu for a bit, telling her to take care of herself, that he definitely wouldn’t let things go, that he’d definitely get justice for her, etc, etc before leaving.

And once he left, Lou Qingwu slowly got up and the warmth in her eyes slowly disappeared, replaced by coldness and mocking.

She didn’t think that Li Jingsheng was truly worried about her, even if he was repaying her for saving his life.

As when compared to his interests and career, he only felt grat.i.tude towards her.

She had no doubt that when forced to choose, he would choose his own interests, which included her first born status.

They were so hypocritical, thinking one thing but saying another thing sanctimoniously. Using emotions as a cage, they caged those girls who were dumb and in love.

Li Jingsheng and Xiahou Qing … were just that.

The overgrown and mess of Leaning Wind Pavilion was what Lou Qingwu expected, as that year, she had left quite abruptly.

Even now, she remembered how proudly Lou Lianxin smiled, thinking that she was running away with her tail tucked between her legs.

But it was a pity that she’d let her down, because three years later, she was back again.

Behind her, the door creaked open and without turning around, she heard a high pitched screech, “You! You, you and you! Go and fix up eldest miss’ rooms. Look at how lazy you all are, don’t even think about eating before finishing! Move faster!”

Lou Qingwu turned around, her small face already resuming her previous innocent and naive expression.

She tilted her head to look at the maidservant who was ordering around everyone and smiled.

So it was Dong Mei, Lou Lianxin’s favourite helper.

Looking at the high and mighty Dong Mei, Lou Qingwu couldn’t help but think of her past life.

In the beginning, Dong Mei was actually by Lou Lianxin’s side and then set to her side for the purpose of monitoring her and scheming against her.

In her past life, she didn’t know Dong Mei’s real face and so fell for a lot of her traps.

Foolishly, she thought that Dong Mei was a good servant, someone who worked extremely hard for her but the end result was …

She was close to an evil servant, alienating her most loyal servants.

She didn’t know that her closest servant gave her a medicine she was allergic to and even being nearly drowned in a lake.

Back then, she really was stupid.

But who knew that Dong Mei would volunteer to be here at Leaning Wind Pavilion. What new scheme did her good little sister think of this time?

What to do, she was getting a bit excited about what was to come.

Ex-husband's name is Xiahou Qing so his surname is two words which I didn't realise until I saw his brother's name which was Xiahou Liuyun.
