Ren Yingying had always held a noble status and wasn't used to sleeping with others. However, upon seeing Taj-tish's beauty, she couldn't treat her as a commoner. Moreover, she didn't wish to put her lover in a difficult position. Thus, she tacitly agreed.
Seeing that even his righteous wife didn't say anything, Taitish felt a bellyful of gloominess but couldn't say anything. She and Song QingShu were more like master and servant than partners. Recalling that she was under his control, she opened her mouth but ultimately didn't say anything. Instead, she tacitly agreed to it.
Due to the aftereffects of using the Art of Blood Ignition, Ren Yingying's body was much weaker than before. She was already exhausted from the long journey to find her lover. Moreover, after being tormented by him for an entire afternoon, she quickly felt drowsy and unknowingly fell asleep.
Taj-tish was at a loss as to what to do and was startled to see Ren Yingying falling asleep so quickly. After quietly observing for a moment, she knew that Ren Yingying wasn't faking it. She couldn't help but whisper to Song Qingshu who was sleeping on the floor nearby, "Your lovely wife's body seems to be a little weak."
Song Qingshu cast a pitying glance at Ren Yingying and sighed sorrowfully, "This is the aftereffect of using the Art of Blood Ignition."
"Art of Blood Ignition?" Taj-tish was startled. Just like how Ren Yingying knew about the Ming Dynasty, as a high-ranking member of the Ming Dynasty, she was naturally privy to certain secrets of the Sun Moon Sect. The Art of Blood Ignition was like a thunderclap reverberating in her ears. She was well aware of its might and was even more aware of its grave consequences.
Song Qingshu let out a bitter laugh and roughly explained Ren Yingying's situation. Taj-tish was both shocked and in awe. As a fellow woman, she couldn't help but feel a sense of pity for Ren Yingying.
"Originally, I was rather dissatisfied with your behavior of forgetting friends for love. However, in consideration of Young Miss Ren, I won't bicker with you." Taj-tish lightly snorted in order to conceal the sadness of their impending separation.
"Forgetting friends for love?" Song Qingshu had an odd expression on his face, "Who's a pervert and who's a friend?"
"Big Miss Ren is young and beautiful, of course she is a pervert," Taj-tish snapped. "Don't tell me you don't consider me as a friend?"
Song QingShu shook her head. Seeing that the other party was frowning, she continued, "The Dragon King was recognized as the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world back then. Even after so many years, your looks are still on par with Yingying's. In terms of beauty, Yingying is inferior to you. "
Not to mention Ren Yingying, even if he counted all the other women he knew, there were probably no more than three who could compete with Purple Shan Dragon King at her peak in terms of appearance.
Even so, it did not affect Ren Yingying's position in his heart in the slightest. It should be known that a woman's charm did not only consist of her beauty, but also her feelings. Although Zi Shan Dragon Queen had reached the pinnacle of beauty, she was still slightly weaker in other aspects.
Hearing him personally say that Ren Yingying's appearance was inferior to hers, Taj-tish's heart could not help but jump with joy. Although she was tired of hearing flattering words praising her beauty when she was young, she still had to see who was praising her.
"Putting on so many high hats for me, isn't it because you want me to diligently work for you?" Taj-tish deliberately put on a straight face, but she could not help but reveal a smile on her face.
Song Qingshu's expression suddenly changed, revealing an indescribable expression, "We're about to separate, and I don't know when we'll meet again. Should we get intimate?"
A blush spread from her snow-white face to her neck. Taj-tish spat, "You're indeed a pervert. You've just fooled around with Big Miss Ren for so long, yet you still have such thoughts."
Sensing that her tone was somewhat uncertain, Song Qingshu quickly got up from the mattress and winked at her, "It's not like you don't know about my body. Yingying's body is weak now, how can I bear to keep tormenting her?"
"You can't bear to torment your own wife, but when it comes to someone else's wife, you don't feel the heartache?" For some unknown reason, Taj-tish felt a wave of irritation in her heart. Her originally slightly amorous expression instantly turned frosty. "Don't bother me, or I'll wake up Big Miss Ren."
Song Qingshu was startled, he did not expect her to change her attitude so abruptly. However, having known her for so long, it was easy for him to deduce from her expression that there was no chance tonight. He could only return to his bed gloomily, thinking that women were truly the most fickle creatures in the world.
Just like that, an awkward night passed. At dawn the next day, Song Qingshu brought Ren Yingying and quietly left the military camp. Firstly, she was worried about Linghu Chong's safety. Secondly, Ren Yingying was a famous character in the pugilistic world. If she were to stay in the military camp for too long and her identity was recognized, who knew if someone would link it to her.
Taj-tish watched as their silhouettes gradually disappeared into the distance. Suddenly, she felt a sense of disappointment and frustration. Did I go too far last night?
However, she suddenly came to her senses and couldn't help but spit out. That scoundrel was obviously the one who went too far. He had just finished making out with another woman and his entire body was reeking of another woman's fragrance. He didn't even wash up and wanted to touch me. I, Zi Shan Dragon Queen, am not his plaything!
In truth, Taj-tish didn't realize that the previously cold and frosty woman who instilled fear in the pugilistic world, would one day become as conflicted as a little girl.
Meanwhile, after Song Qingshu and Ren Yingying left the military camp, Ren Yingying said apologetically, "It's all my fault for delaying your business."
Song Qingshu smiled as he held her soft hand. "Yingying, how many times have I explained to you? Even though Sichuan is currently in turmoil, it represents a huge opportunity. I've already planned to make a trip there."
"Song Qingshu, I know how good you are to me." Having her hand held by him, Ren Yingying's face blushed slightly. Her reserved nature made her want to retract her hand subconsciously. However, thinking that there were no outsiders here, she lowered her head and allowed him to do as he pleased.
Looking at her cute and helpless appearance, Song Qingshu couldn't help but recall the scene of her shouting and wanting to kill him back then. He couldn't help but reveal a knowing smile.
"What are you smiling at?" Noticing the mischievous smile on his lips, Ren Yingying asked doubtfully.
Song Qingshu couldn't help but tell her what was on his mind, provoking a punch from Ren Yingying. "You still have the nerve to say that? The moment we met, you crawled into my … my bathtub. You don't know how many times I secretly cried at night because of this matter."
"I was too abrupt back then …" Song Qingshu dodged as he begged for mercy. However, in his heart, he secretly thought that if he had such a chance again, he would most likely make the same choice. After all, at that time, her relationship with Linghu Chong had already reached a certain level. If he didn't find another way, he would probably never be able to cause a ripple in her heart for the rest of her life.
Ren Yingying thought of all the past events and sighed endlessly. Every time they met, she was bullied to death by him. At that time, she hated him very, very much, but things were unpredictable. She didn't expect that she would actually become his wife … Now that she looked back at the past, she felt a different kind of sweetness.
Like this, the two of them reminisced about the process of how they got to know each other through fighting as they rushed south. Originally, Ren Yingying had planned to ride a horse, but Song Qingshu was worried that her body was weak and couldn't withstand the jolting of a horse. Thus, he decided to take a boat upstream from the Three Gorges and White Emperor City to Sichuan. Ren Yingying couldn't dissuade him, so she could only let him be.
However, when the two of them arrived at the shore of the Yangtze River, they suddenly discovered a big problem. An announcement at the dock informed them that with the two countries at war, the Yangtze River had entered the highest state of alert. Ordinary passenger and merchant ships were not allowed to pass through.
"Merchant ships are not allowed to pass. What's up with that boat?" Ren Yingying asked, pointing at a huge merchant ship that was slowly approaching from the distance.
