Chapter 459: Bringing the Mistress Home (Part 1)
Han Jing was silent for a moment, then said something that almost made Han Qingjue vomit blood: "I think being a decoration isn’t bad, after all, not everyone can be a decoration."
Han Qingjue’s fingers tightened around the cup uncontrollably. She realized that this woman truly had no other skills, but her way with words was formidable!
Ha!
After talking for so long, Han Qingjue really hadn’t gotten any useful information from Han Jing.
She really couldn’t bring herself to ask more, so she forced a stiff smile and said, "Since you don’t know, I’ll just go ask him myself. No time like the present, let’s go together!"
Han Jing glanced at Han Qingjue: "You want to come to my house?"
Han Qingjue’s fingers trembled slightly. She truly wanted to know what this woman’s brain was made of — why was her thought process so different from normal people’s?
After all this talking, she wasn’t even angry or suspicious, but instead had made Han Qingjue extremely angry. Not to mention those things, she didn’t want to bother with this kind of person, but now she suggested going back with her—didn’t she understand what that meant?
Han Qingjue really couldn’t tell if she was too smart or too dumb!
But Han Qingjue managed to keep her calm, lightly raised the corner of her lips, and asked clearly, "Isn’t it okay?"
Han Jing immediately broke into a big smile, and said enthusiastically: "Of course, of course! The future heir of Beihan Palace wants to visit my home, I’d be more than pleased to welcome you, why wouldn’t it be okay? Let’s go!"
Saying that, she got up and naturally led the way.
Han Jing thought, being able to so generously bring the other woman home, she really was a rarity. But she had no choice, returning home now was the safest. Even if they started fighting, it would be Han Qingjue who’d suffer!
Whereas, if they fought here, she would definitely be the one suffering!
So now, Han Jing couldn’t wait for Han Qingjue to come back with her — once they were back, she’d be safe!
It seems that she should go out less often in the future; all these rivals are too strong, and she can’t keep up for now!
Facing Han Jing’s sudden enthusiasm, Han Qingjue was a bit stumped, once again questioning what exactly was going on in this woman’s head. Was she genuinely inviting her home?
She certainly didn’t have to insist Han Jing accompany her back, but she knew Yun Peng’s character too well — if she barged into his place without his consent, it would definitely upset him. Her intention this time was to see him out of concern; she had tried countless times over the years to get close to him, only to be rejected each time. She really didn’t want their relationship to deteriorate further.
She just didn’t expect this Han Jing to be so... agreeable?
Everything she said was more infuriating than the last, so why now... Han Qingjue really couldn’t figure it out. But anyway, she should wait to see Yun Peng first.
Thinking about it, it had been a long time since she last saw him. In the past two years, he’d rarely been back to the Spirit Flame Sect; every time she got news, he had already left. She couldn’t really have someone follow him all the time, as that would only offend him more.
Standing up to follow, Han Qingjue’s gaze inadvertently landed on Han Jing’s unmarked side of the face, her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Madness, why did it feel so familiar?
