AST 1531 - Yet Another Problem Arose (2/2)

“Well, they had their sights fixed on my woman. Just with that, it has already made your statement invalid even if he had been an emperor or an old man.” Qing Shui said in a way which seemed like he was feeling indignant at an injustice.

“You impudent brat. Are you trying to dig a grave for yourself? Since when have I become your woman?” An angry Qin Qing landed a light punch on Qing Shui.

“You have got a point as well. It’s still really early now. Rest assured, I am going to fight hard for it.”

Qin Qing decided to move away from this topic. She knew that they would only start talking further and further ahead if they continued to dwell into this topic, “Let’s head back. We have already arranged a room for you.”

“Where do you live?” Qing Shui was a bit awkward when he asked.

“We will live on separate floors.” Qin Qing said.

“Alright, and here I thought I would be living with you. That had given me quite a shock as I am not ready to do so just yet.” Qing Shui let out a sigh of relief like he just dropped down a huge burden in his heart.

Qin Qing was shaken. She felt a strong urge to punch his face but in the end, she still managed to withstand her desire to do it. She wasn’t actually mad. Though she might be extremely annoyed with it, somehow, she still felt a kind of happiness which words couldn’t describe.

This was precisely what Qing Shui wanted. To leave a deep impression on this woman, he had tried using a lot of ways to communicate with her, even if it meant acting like a gangster.

Qin Qing might be unmatched in terms of her beauty in her generation, but she wasn’t just a stationary vase as well. Prior to this, when she heard the things which Qing Shui said to her grandpa, she came to understand that Qing Shui was doing all of this for her. Though she might look mad, deep down, she was actually happy.

“Are you angry?” Qing Shui asked gently.

“No, why should I be mad?” Qin Qing asked carefreely.

“I knew my Qin`er wouldn’t be so narrow-minded.” Qing Shui said in a certain tone.

Now, Qin Qing had finally came to understand that little by little, the impudent Qing Shui was making his way up the stick like a snake, and now, she had somehow ended up a family member of his own.

……

When they returned to Qin King Manor, Qing Shui was arranged in the courtyard where Qin Qing lived in. The courtyard wasn’t that big, but it looked really unique. There was only a building in the courtyard. It consisted of three floors.

The floor was light pink in color and looked really exquisite. Night time had already approached; while walking, Qin Qing said, “Your room is on the second floor. Let me show you the way.”

Qing Shui smiled as he followed her up to the second floor. The first floor only had two rooms. One was larger than the other. However, the beds in both rooms were double beds.

The room might not be that big, but it felt really warm. Though it might not be strong, the room was filled with fragrance.

In Qing Shui’s eyes, the snow white blanket on the bed was more seducing than ever before. Qin Qing could see a kind of passion filling up Qing Shui’s eyes, hence, she said gently, “The sky is turning dark, let’s go and have some rest.”

After Qin Qing finished speaking, she turned around and started to leave.

At this moment, it’s was if Qing Shui couldn’t control himself and went on to grab her hand. He gently pulled her towards himself and embraced her in his arms. He was getting ready to kiss her cherry lips.

“You never loved me!” Qin Qing said gently.

These words made Qing Shui feel as if a bucket of cold water was poured on him in the winter. During this time, the sexy lips of the woman were slightly apart. He could smell the fresh breath coming from her mouth very clearly.

“I am sorry for not controlling myself…”

“It’s a bit late now, go have some rest. Goodnight.” Qin Qing smiled and said gently. Seeing Qing Shui’s lonely expression, she extended her hand and rubbed Qing Shui’s head before leaving.

Qing Shui was a bit speechless. He immediately entered the bathroom and took a shower. For now, he decided to leave the matter regarding Qin Qing aside and began thinking about Gu Yelong. Since he exposed the embarrassing things about him, it’s safe to assume that Gu Clan would look for him to settle the matter.

As Qing Shui thought, Gu Clan made their move very quickly. On the following day, words were spread to the public that Gu Clan wanted Qin King Manor to hand over Qing Shui.

They had found out that Qing Shui was just a man whom Qin Qing brought back with her. As to whether he was Qin Qing’s husband, they were still uncertain about it. It’s likely that Qin King Manor wouldn’t reject Gu Clan’s request just for a brat like Qing Shui.

Of course, Gu Clan was also very polite to the people from Qin King Manor. The only problem was that they never expected for Qin King Manor to reject their request so straightforwardly.

Qing Shui had once again embarrassed Gu Clan. Though this time, Gu Yelong might have been the one to make the mistakes. Qing Shui didn’t hold back and exposed him in front of everyone. This has caused Gu Clan to lose a great deal of face. They then proceeded to ask for Qing Shui from Qin King Manor only to get rejected by them again. This caused them to lose face yet again.

Gu Clan couldn’t stand constantly being mocked by Qing Shui. After all, it was supposed to still be more powerful than Qin King Manor. But its strength lied solely on the number of members in its clan.

Since Qin King manor didn’t give them face, Gu Clan felt that it’s needed for them to fight for it themselves. It’s certainly not possible that Gu Clan would immediately make their way to Qin King Manor since they shared a good relationship with the royal clans. Out of all the clans, the royal clan remained one of the most mysterious ones. No one was clear as to how many strong experts were hidden within their clan. For a clan that was capable of conquering the dynasty, it would certainly not be as simple as it looked.

Gu Clan sent Qin King Manor a challenge letter. Initially, the relationship between the two clans were already in quite a bad situation, but now, Gu Clan sent out their challenge letter for Qin Royalty asking to either hand over Qing Shui or accept the challenge.

Qin King Manor would be considered to have lost if they didn’t accept either one of the options. Hence, the only option left for them would be to take the challenge which was a wheel match. Both sides must battle until one side admitted defeat.

This was the scheme planned by Gu Clan. After all, Gu Clan wouldn’t gain any advantages with a one-on-one battle. That was why they decided to go for a tag match instead. Gu Clan had a lot of experts in them. Their sole motive was to beat Qin King Manor no matter what it took.

Qing Shui was reluctant to let Qin King Manor be defeated and thus, he decided to settle this matter himself. However, Old Man Qin rejected it because doing that would mean that Qing Shui looked down upon Qin King Manor. Hence, Qing Shui had no choice but to agree to it but only under one condition, which is, he must be the representative for the first match.

A tag match is one where the warrior would be able to continue fighting in the arena given that they win their matches.
