Chapter 428: So Jealous I Could Die 3
“You understood sh*t.” Qi Qingyao looked at Lu Yan’s expression and felt like he surely would never go to the brothel himself. Qi Qingyao thought for a while. She walked to the door and saw a little maid sweeping the floor. She called out, “Du Juan, come here.”
Du Juan, the little maid, ran over in quick steps.
She stood in front of Qi Qingyao.
Qi Qingyao held Du Juan’s chin and examined her.
Then, she asked, “Aren’t you the maid in charge of sweeping the floors in Young Master Lu’s courtyard?”
“Yes, I am.” Du Juan nodded cautiously.
Then, Qi Qingyao led Du Juan in through the door and said to Lu Yan from a distance, “Lu Yan, don’t move.”
Lu Yan looked at the little maid that she was holding hands with and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Qi Qingyao pointed and nodded her chin at Lu Yan, then said to the little maid, “Du Juan, go and sit on Lu Yan’s lap.”
“Ah…” The little maid’s face suddenly flushed with embarra.s.sment and nervousness.
Qi Qingyao patted Du Juan’s shoulder. “I asked you to sit, so go and sit! What are you afraid of? It’s not like he’s going to eat you.”
“B-but…” Du Juan kept backing away; she repeatedly expressed that she did not dare.
Qi Qingyao stood behind her and pushed the little maid forward. “No buts.”
Du Juan could neither step forward nor step back.
She was in a little bit of a dilemma.
Lu Yan looked as if he was facing an archenemy. He looked at her and Du Juan with his body pulled taut all over.
Qi Qingyao instructed from afar, “You’re not allowed to move.”
Lu Yan, “…”
Qi Qingyao walked to Lu Yan’s side and held his body down when it was just about to get up. Then, she said to Du Juan with a smile, “Du Juan, come on, sit down.”
Du Juan was still rooted to the spot and hesitating on the.
She slowly approached in one step, then two steps. When she was half a meter away from Lu Yan, Lu Yan’s body quickly leaped up from the chair as if it had a spring installed. He turned over and ran behind the screen. His face was pale, and he was gasping and panting.
A strained sentence came from behind the screen.
“No, I can’t do it.”
“…”
Qi Qingyao and Du Juan were both stunned by this scene.
Qi Qingyao motioned for Du Juan to wait there.
Then, she walked behind the screen and looked down at Lu Yan, who was squatting on the ground from excessive nervousness. Qi Qingyao rubbed her forehead helplessly. She lowered her voice and said, “Do you want to be a eunuch for the rest of your life?”
“…”
“If you want to get a wife and have children, this is the only way.”
“…” Lu Yan was silent for a moment. He got up, put half a meter between himself and Qi Qingyao, and stared right at her. With a rather provoking edge to his voice, he asked, “Why don’t you set an example yourself first?”
“??” What ‘set an example’?
Lu Yan said awkwardly, “I’m afraid I’ll kick the maid to the door.”
Did he want her to try sitting on his lap? That kind of example? Qi Qingyao’s eyebrows sank, but she said seriously, “Okay. I have no choice but to be an example. I’ll have to sacrifice myself in the name of justice!”
With that, Qi Qingyao turned around and said to Du Juan and Dong Jing, who was at the door, “You lot, get out of her.”
Du Juan smiled in relief and quickly ran out.
As Dong Jing left, he closed the door as he went.
Lu Yan looked at the people who left, then slowly relaxed.
He sat on the chair again.
Qi Qingyao stood in front of him. She licked her lips nervously, thinking about what he had said just now, that he was afraid he would kick that maid away.
She gave him some mental preparation first. “I’m your buddy, and I’m your physician, so don’t kick me. My body is delicate and precious and can’t afford to get kicked by you.”
Lu Yan lowered his eyes, turned his head, and looked to the side, purposely expressing that he was very relaxed.
