Perhaps it was because she, as the matriarch, was too easy to talk to; not only did Song Pingping not want to leave, but Zhao Rufang also didn't want to leave.
Qin Yizhen was somewhat worried.
When she brought people in, why didn't she think about how to get rid of them?
When Cheng Yan returned in the evening, she told him about it. He looked at her intently, and she felt inexplicably guilty.
In truth, she brought this upon herself. If she hadn't been so foolish as to bring these people in, none of this mess would have happened.
Zhao Rufang was determined to find a suitable marriage partner, so Song Pingping gave her a shop to manage well. She could marry the person she liked, or stay single for life if she didn't like him. At least she would have a place to settle down.
As for Wang Xianrong, if she still insists on dying, then she can't control her.
For some reason, Qin Yizhen felt that Cheng Yan seemed to be in a bad mood today. He was not interested in talking to her. When night fell and the two lay on the bed, he hugged her from behind and then seemed to lose control and tormented her.
By the time they had tidied themselves up and lay down on the bed, it was already past midnight.
After nearly two hours of commotion, Qin Yizhen felt like her body wasn't even her own anymore. She was exhausted and sleepy, and didn't want to move a single finger. But she couldn't fall asleep even when lying down, and her heart felt empty, as if a piece was missing.
Two days ago, when the two consummated their marriage, he was gentle and considerate, and cared for her. Although she was a little uncomfortable, he didn't make her suffer. She felt a little ashamed to do these things with him, but she also had a secret joy in her heart.
But only two days later, he was angry and took it out on her.
Qin Yizhen felt more and more wronged as she thought about it, and couldn't help but cry.
Her cries were soft and weak, like a kitten's, muffled by the blanket, making her look especially pitiful.
Cheng Yan was about to fall asleep while holding her, but hearing her crying woke him up a bit. He turned her over and held her in his arms, asking softly, "What's wrong? Why are you crying again?"
Qin Yizhen was angry and pushed him away, saying, "Go away, I don't want to sleep with you."
Being kicked out of bed by one's wife is certainly an unpleasant experience.
Cheng Yan held her hand, his face looking a little pale, but seeing how pitifully she was crying, he didn't want to argue with her for the time being. So he reached out and hugged her, patting her back to comfort her.
What happened to you? Did I hurt you?
As he spoke, he tried to remove her nightgown to check her appearance, but Qin Yizhen covered her nightgown and refused to let him see.
Cheng Yan panicked, turned over and pressed her down on the bed, holding her hands down to prevent her from moving.
Qin Yizhen was unable to move, feeling both wronged and angry. She cursed him, "Cheng Yan! You bastard!"
"You insulted me?" Cheng Yan paused.
Qin Yizhen had scolded him before, but most of the time it was because he was too rough in bed and she couldn't take it anymore. But those weren't really scolding. Now, however, she was so angry that her eyes were red, and there was clearly resentment and anger in her gaze.
Cheng Yan was fully awake.
"What's wrong with me scolding you?" Qin Yizhen felt hurt and pushed him off, hugging the blanket and moving away from him. "After you came back today, you haven't had a good look on your face all day, and... and you treated me like this. I told you I didn't want it, but you still insisted."
Even if you're angry, you can't take it out on me.
In her view, when a couple is in love, they are closest to each other, and doing these things is a sign of deep affection. But he takes his bad mood out on her, which makes her feel wronged and resentful.
She even felt that he was using her as a punching bag.
"I told you before, we should treat the past as history, whether it was you forcing me to marry you or my coldness towards you for many years. Let's live our lives well from now on."
"It was wrong of me to arrange for you to take a concubine. Even if it's difficult to resolve, I will handle it myself. Why should you hold a grudge about it..."
“Xie Zhan,” Cheng Yan suddenly spoke.
Qin Yizhen was a little confused when he suddenly mentioned Xie Zhan: "What Xie Zhan?"
"You said you went to Wanshi Tower today to see Lady Changting and Lady Min, but you also met Xie Zhan, didn't you?"
Cheng Yan lay down, then reached out and grabbed her ankle, pulled her close, and pressed her into his arms, pinching her chin.
"Cheng Yan!" Qin Yizhen's eyes were red with anger. "I only met him once, I never had any romantic feelings for him, and I never cheated on him. How can you doubt me like this? Don't we, as husband and wife, have even this much trust?"
Qin Yizhen felt truly wronged: "He never said anything bad about you, and I only did it because I knew he had been thinking about you for many years and felt guilty towards him. I tried to persuade him to forget the past and cherish the person in front of him."
"Are you trying to make it sound like I'm seeing my lover when I see him?"
“It’s not that I don’t trust you, and I know you’re doing well now, and he won’t bother you anymore.” Cheng Yan lowered his eyes. “He’s upright and honest, and you have a clear conscience. It’s me who has despicable thoughts.”
It was precisely because Xie Zhan was so upright and noble, like a star in the sky, that he felt flustered and breathless when he learned that Qin Yi had met Xie Zhan.
"He is such a good person, the Xie Langjun that everyone in Qindu wants to marry. I don't want you to see him, for I'm afraid that if you see him, you will be attracted to him and then fall completely in love with him and forget about me."
Cheng Yan buried his face in her hair, his voice low: "I'm just afraid of losing you."
Qin Yizhen found it absurd: "Since you're afraid of losing me, shouldn't you treat me even better, so that I can't live without you? But the way you treat me only makes me feel like you're using me as a punching bag and don't care about me at all."
"Besides, if you're unhappy, does that mean you don't have a mouth to speak?"
Cheng Yan suddenly stopped.
Qin Yizhen wiped away her tears, then leaned against him, feeling somewhat sad and annoyed: "We are husband and wife, there's nothing we can't say. If you're unhappy, just say it. But if you take your anger out on me, it will hurt me."
Cheng Yan snapped out of his daze, reached out and hugged her tightly, and immediately apologized to her: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Qin Yizhen still felt somewhat unhappy, but after thinking about it, she realized that this was the first time they had been husband and wife, and both of them would make mistakes. They should be tolerant and understanding of each other, so she decided not to hold it against him.
"Then you must remember not to do this again in the future."
"I definitely won't do that again." Cheng Yan kissed the top of her head, then kissed her forehead, and asked in a soft voice, "I went too far just now, but is there anything else that's uncomfortable? Do you want me to rub it or kiss you?"
"How about we do it again? This time I promise I won't make you feel bad..."
