Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2280: I Have Another Request

“Sorry, brother-in-law. I really couldn’t think of any other way.” Chu Youzhao held Zu An’s arm and gently rocked it.

“You’re already married, and yet you’re still acting like a spoiled child… Put on your clothes properly first.” Zu An turned around when he saw the exposed skin around her loosely worn clothes.

“Oh.” Chu Youzhao blushed and quickly sorted out her clothes, then put on her outer garment. A while later, she said quietly with a reddened face, “I’m done, brother-in-law.”

Why don’t I have any defenses at all in front of brother-in-law?

Zu An turned around. “Why are you doing this, really?”

Chu Youzhao hung her head and said rather apologetically, “Brother-in-law, you know I’m a woman and can’t do that stuff. The Chu clan also needs an heir, so I could only ask you for help.”

“Is what you did asking me for help?” Zu An almost laughed out of annoyance.

“If I hadn’t acted first and reported later, would brother-in-law have agreed?” Chu Youzhao mumbled.

Zu An was speechless.

Even though this kind of thing was quite appealing for him as a man, that was only something he had fantasized about whenever he saw billboard advertisements rewarding large sums for having children. Who would do something so ridiculous in real life? If Chu Youzhao had asked him before, he would indeed have refused.

“Does little sister Qinghe know about this?” he asked.

“I didn’t tell her yet. I plan to slowly suggest it to her later…” Chu Youzhao said, a bit embarrassed.

Zu An was speechless.

“Big brother Zu, you don’t need to worry! I already asked Qinghe before, and she said she was willing to be with you,” Chu Youzhao added.

Zu An looked at her with an expression full of questions.

Chu Youzhao’s face reddened a bit. She then added, “The two of us had an intimate chat once. Back then, I asked her who she would’ve liked if she hadn’t met me. I had to push quite a bit before she disclosed the truth. Who do you think she said it was?”

When he saw her worried expression, Zu An couldn’t help but feel a bit stirred. After all, being liked by a beautiful young lady was always a happy thing.

“But even if that’s true, we can’t just do things like this!” he replied, feeling a sense of absurdity when he recalled what had just happened. “Once little sister Qinghe learns about the truth, how will she feel?”

“Don’t worry, brother-in-law, you can just leave that to me. She’ll be able to accept it.” Chu Youzhao seemed to have quite a bit of confidence in herself.

Zu An wondered briefly whether to just tell Murong Qinghe the truth, but what had happened today really was too ridiculous. It’d be really bad if Murong Qinghe couldn’t accept it and did something silly. Additionally, the court had just calmed down a bit. If this whole affair was exposed, it would once again create a lot of unrest, and it would only bring harm to those involved.

He couldn’t help but sigh. Sometimes, when one’s identity and status changed, the things one had to worry about also increased.

“Then you two are on your own. If Qinghe can’t handle the truth, tell me. I’ll personally apologize to her,” Zu An said, feeling really annoyed. Just what kind of situation were they in?

He could have countless beautiful young ladies lining up to sleep with him with just a wave of his hand, so there was no need for him to do something like this at all. Who would have thought that he would be plotted against by the closest people around him? On top of that, in this situation, he had still sort of taken advantage of the other party too, so he didn’t even know how to vent his frustrations.

“Don’t worry, brother-in-law. I’ll definitely take care of this properly.” Chu Youzhao sounded like a child who had made a mistake and kept trying to make up for it.

Zu An harrumphed. He sorted out his clothes and walked out.

Chu Youzhao was startled. “Brother-in-law, where are you going?”

“Back to the palace,” Zu An said coldly.

“You’re going back when it’s already so late?” Chu Youzhao was confused.

“I feel annoyed just thinking about what happened,” Zu An said impatiently.

As he reached the door, Chu Youzhao quickly chased after him and grabbed his hand. “Brother-in-law, please don’t be angry. I still have something else to ask you.”

Zu An thought about how Chu Chuyan was still under the Bridge of Helplessness. He took a deep breath to clear his mind before asking, “What is it?”

“Can you take some time to keep Qinghe company whenever you have some time in the future?” Chu Youzhao asked softly.

Zu An was stunned.

Chu Youzhao’s face turned a bit red. She could only explain bashfully, “I could hear how happy little sister Qinghe was, so there’s no way she’ll forget about what happened. If she starts asking me for that… As a woman, I can’t help her.”

Zu An almost laughed out loud from anger.

This lass’ brain really operates a bit differently from normal!

He harrumphed and stormed off.

Zhang Zitong heard the activity outside and quickly came over, saying, “Young master, this is…”

“Return to the palace!” Zu An said coldly.

Zhang Zitong was a bit confused, but she didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, she gathered her subordinates to escort Zu An back.

But she was a bit surprised. She seemed to recall seeing the Chu clan’s young heir in the room too. Wasn’t he supposed to be in the bridal room? Why would he be in sir’s room?

Could it be that sir has that kind of preference?

You want both the brothers and sisters, and you even went after them during their wedding night?

She couldn’t help but shiver a bit, but she had to admit that the Chu clan’s young heir was quite pretty. When his hair was down, he looked even prettier than many women. Which man wouldn’t be tempted if they saw that?

Chu Youzhao pouted when she saw Zu An leave.

Did brother-in-law agree or refuse when he harrumphed just now?

She couldn’t think of the answer to that question even after a long time. But when she thought of her wife next door, she couldn’t be bothered with that and quickly turned the secret button again to return next door to the bridal room. She lit up a candle nearby, illuminating the room again. She walked over to the bed and put out the burning incense.

Murong Qinghe’s face was completely red, and even though she was unconscious, her body was still trembling. Chu Youzhao couldn’t help but blush as well.

It seems little sister Qinghe was really happy…

The clothes scattered everywhere, the brightly-colored wedding clothes, Murong Qinghe’s body that resembled a gentle sheep, and the moon visible from the room all carried different kinds of beauty.

Chu Youzhao curled her lips.

Brother-in-law was speaking righteously, but didn’t he still go all out just now?

She carefully picked up some of her personal clothing and gently helped Murong Qinghe put them on.

She could feel Qinghe’s smooth and delicate skin while helping her get dressed. When she saw red marks on Qinghe’s body, Chu Youzhao’s face turned red again. She mumbled, “Stinky brother-in-law, bad brother-in-law. Look what you’ve done to little sister Qinghe.

“Hmph, something amazing like this is what men dream of, but are usually never able to do, and yet he was scolding me.”

…

While she was sorting out Murong Qinghe’s clothes, Chu Youzhao ended up touching Qinghe’s inner thigh, feeling a large wet pool there. Her face immediately turned red.

The Chu clan’s nanny had taught her about some of these things because she was getting married. After all, only a few people knew that she was actually cross-dressing. Thus, she naturally knew what it was. She was completely shocked. “There’s that much?”

She sniffed a bit, and became completely absentminded.

Is this brother-in-law’s smell?

She reflexively brought her hand to her face, looking at it bashfully but also curiously. It was impossible to tell what she was thinking, but her face became even redder.

…

The next morning, Murong Qinghe slowly woke up. All kinds of different thoughts appeared in her head, and she was incredibly embarrassed.

I actually fainted last night!

She turned around and saw Chu Youzhao staring at her with big eyes and an ambiguous smile. She immediately felt sweet happiness, and bashfully leaned into her husband, saying, “Big brother Chu…”

Chu Youzhao had never heard such a sweet tone before and felt more and more admiration.

Brother-in-law really is amazing.

“What is it, little sister Qinghe?”

Murong Qinghe suddenly raised her head and gently gave Youzhao a peck on the lips. Her eyes were full of longing. “Big brother Chu, I really was happy last night. I feel like the luckiest woman in the world right now.”

Chu Youzhao had a complicated expression. She didn’t dare to meet Qinghe’s gaze and gently hugged her. “I hope you won’t blame me in the future.”

She wondered what kind of a reaction Murong Qinghe would have once she learned the truth in the future.

Murong Qinghe smiled sweetly. “I like big brother Chu the most, why would I blame you?”

But for some reason, Zu An appeared in her mind. She quickly shook her head to shake away that thought.
