Chapter 258
Nalan Jing knew that Nalan Yin was behind it all, and gave him a warning glance. However, the latter was completely oblivious, holding her hand and smiling with his eyes crinkling, looking utterly innocent.
"My lady, since Miss Liu has said so, shall I have Yin'er serve you tonight?"
Nalan Yin was beautiful, with sparkling eyes, and a captivating and bold charm that made it hard for anyone to refuse her.
With a beauty in his arms, every word was alluring, but Nalan Jingwen didn't react much. Instead, everyone in the inn cast envious glances, some of which were filled with lewd looks.
Nalan Jing frowned unhappily, put his arm around Nalan Yin's slender waist, and pulled him into his arms, using his body to shield him from those unfriendly gazes.
Nalan Yin leaned against her chest, wrapped her arms around Nalan Jingwen, and curled her rosy lips into a triumphant smile.
In the end, it ended with Liu Qingxu staying in a room by himself, while Nalan Jingwen and Nalan Yin shared a room. As soon as they entered the room, Nalan Jingwen released his arm from Nalan Yin's. Nalan Yin's expression faltered for a moment, but she quickly recovered and put on her usual alluring smile.
You can sleep in the bed tonight.
"What about sister?"
"It doesn't matter if I don't sleep."
Nalan Yin's beautiful eyes were unfathomable, as if they were filled with something. She slowly walked to Nalan Jingwen's side and gently hugged her.
"My lady, didn't we agree that Yin'er would serve you tonight?"
Nalan Jingwen pushed the person away, saying, "There's no one here. You don't need to use that act to deceive people anymore."
Don't think she didn't know what he was thinking just now.
Nalan Yin looked at her, her eyes shimmering with tears. She looked so innocent and harmless that she was truly pitiful.
"Is there something wrong with Yin'er? Or is it that Your Highness is worried that Yin'er is not serving well enough?"
"Yin'er has gone to learn how to serve the Emperor well."
As he spoke, he took off the cloak he was wearing and threw it on the ground. The collar was torn open, revealing his fair and delicate skin underneath.
Upon hearing this, Nalan Jing took a step back. "Do you still remember that we are siblings?"
Nalan Yin tilted her head. "So what?"
"This is unethical, it will be despised by the world, and it will be rejected by everyone."
Regardless of whether they are related by blood, Nalan Yin is still her nominal younger brother.
"Is Sister afraid of being scorned by the world? It doesn't matter. When the time comes, Yin'er will send someone to announce to the world that I, Nalan Yin, shamelessly seduced the Emperor and have been coveting the Emperor for a long time. That way, Sister will not be scorned by the world. At that time, the people will only say that I, Nalan Yin, am fickle and unfaithful to my husband."
Nalan Yin uttered such shocking words in an almost innocent tone, even Nalan Jingwen was taken aback by the madness in his eyes.
She gazed intently at Nalan Yin, falling silent for a moment.
Finally, she sighed.
"I was afraid you would get hurt."
Nalan Yin is a man. Even if he is a member of the royal family, if such remarks are made, he will be the one who suffers. That's how the world is. Men have a low status, and all the blame will be placed on men. Even if a woman rapes a man in the street, people will only say that men should stay at home. Isn't going out just seducing women to commit crimes? If he hadn't gone out, would he have been raped? In the end, it's all his fault.
Why didn't any men object? Because some men have been tamed, and others have had their mouths covered.
And what about women? How badly was Nalan Jingwen's reputation ruined before? Yet some people still say that women should have three husbands and four servants, so what if they are a little fickle? It has always been like this since ancient times. Taking a woman back to your mansion is doing him a favor, and if she resists, she is considered ungrateful and shameless.
Even so, this kind of thing still doesn't affect her in the slightest.
Even if Nalan Yin and Nalan Jingwen are mutually in love, and even if Nalan Jingwen takes the initiative, it will eventually turn into Nalan Yin shamelessly seducing her.
Countless vicious words, like sharp blades, pierced Nalan Yin, and she feared that Nalan Yin could not bear them.
The madness in Nalan Yin's eyes turned into a daze as she stared blankly at Nalan Jingwen.
He never expected this answer.
He thought...
Nalan Jingwen didn't care about him; it was all just wishful thinking on his part.
He thought...
Nalan Jingwen was afraid—afraid of being associated with herself, afraid of affecting her.
But no matter how much he planned, he never expected this answer.
On his way to find Nalan Jingwen, he met a Taoist priest. He asked the priest if he could achieve a happy ending with his beloved and grow old together.
The Taoist priest looked at him for a long time, then shook his head and said, "In this world, things cannot be forced to have a result. What is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not destined to be yours, you cannot force. Everything must be done in accordance with the way of Heaven, otherwise retribution will come and there will be no turning back."
That's utter nonsense! A load of lies! Nonsense!
Later, in a fit of anger, he overturned the Taoist priest's stall.
Nalan Yin never believed in fate, otherwise he wouldn't have lived to this day. What nonsense is this "what is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you cannot force"?
What utter nonsense about following the natural order?!
If Heaven decrees his death, does that mean he should die?!
So why don't so many evildoers in this world suffer retribution? What gives them the right to do so?
Heaven is unjust; those who deserve retribution have many descendants and live long lives. Those who strive to live, however, are plagued by misfortune, barely clinging to life, enduring all the suffering of the world!
He will definitely win Nalan Jingwen's heart, and he will make her his wife, no matter the cost.
What is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you may try to force!
But just now, Nalan Jingwen told him that this was not what he thought he was forcing.
She was afraid he would get hurt...
Upon hearing his reaction, Nalan Jing continued, "Have you considered the consequences? Have you considered whether you can bear them? Have you considered the unexpected?"
"what's up?"
Nalan Yin asked blankly.
"What if you get pregnant? What will you do then?"
"Then let it be born."
Nalan Yin answered without hesitation, her gaze resolute.
“If you don’t like the child, I can raise her alone and I will never let her appear in front of you.”
Nalan Jingwen shook his head, "What if the child is mentally challenged?"
"So what if he's mentally challenged? As long as he's your child."
As long as it is Nalan Jingwen's child, he can protect the child for a lifetime.
"What if other children laugh at her for being mentally challenged?"
A murderous glint flashed in Nalan Yin's eyes. "Then kill them."
"If she asks in the future who her mother is and why she doesn't have a mother, what should you say?"
Are you suggesting that your mother is your father's older sister?
How will this child get along with others in the future?
Nalan Yin was bewildered. Her moist, rosy lips parted, but she couldn't utter a single word.
Nalan Jing sighed and stepped forward to help him put on his clothes. "You're still a child yourself, how can you take care of a child?"
"Can we wait a little longer? At least not now."
