Qinglian Chronicles - Chapter 14
The Night Incites
Translated By: Niladri
Although my bedroom was in a waterside pavilion (1), but because it was winter, I had to use a heated room beside the extended room (2). Though the place was not very big, the bed was extremely large, like a small room, with a roof, along with three flower-engraved wooden planks and a dangling curtain screen .It was completely isolated from the outside world, the sweet dreams and horrifying nightmares both merely existed in that small world, illuminated by the slightly flickering candlelight entering through the curtain screen.
[T/N: We use the same stuff but it has 4 wooden posts]
Seeing such a bed always reminds me of my maternal family. My maternal family also had such an old-fashioned, majestic old mahogany bed wrapped in three sides, which was generally given as dowry. Certainly, it was not as exquisite as this. When lying inside it, I would think of the blue flagstone path, the small bamboo chair, and the falling rainwater making ‘Hua-Hua’ sounds as it fell down the eaves in the corner of the Chinese garden and restored the bluish color of the path …My mind will remain dazed for a long time together with a speck of abstruse pain.
Although I only slept here for three days, I had a feeling of getting used to it. I had to both go to bed and get up early here. Speaking of early, I had to get up at four o’clock in the morning. Therefore, I usually fell asleep at nine or ten o’clock. When I was in modern times, I was often working overtime or socializing until two or three o’clock in the morning, and went to the company at 10:00 am. And I can’t say for sure that it’s peaceful here, but the quality of sleep is good. I wonder if I will gain weight.
The biggest difference between my bed and my maternal family’s bed is that my bed has a narrow, slightly low portion on the bed, like a pedal, and there are also bedding on it. Apparently, it is for a yatou to rest in. Like this, it’s easy to pour water at night and empty the chamber pot.
However, Zhang Qinglian, this pervert doesn’t have a yatou. Perhaps it is because “the night is not for sleeping” it is inconvenient, because two cannot use it.
So, on that night, I fell asleep under this big bed, and like the previous two days, I quickly fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, I was suddenly awakened by a strange feeling, as if someone were touching my body and the smooth body was creeping against me.
I still was a little blurry, not sure if I wanted to wake up from the dream, thinking: Is it possible that me drooling over my beautiful boy actually started a spring dream?
I put out my hand over that body and traced it. The touch felt real, the firm and smooth skin, and the lack of obvious strong under the soft skin, felt good.
Oh, is it possible that my beautiful boy was habituated to Zhang Qinglian’s hobbies? Since he is unable to suppress himself anymore, he took advantage of the night to join me in bed?
Oh, how hateful is it that I am a man now!
The guy who sneaked into my bed was very enthusiastic. He kissed me from my chest, entangled my arms like snakes, his lips and tongue sought out my mouth, sucking many places in the process. It made me want to say that it was a clove-like tongue, but actually it was a satiny greasy tongue that tried to enter my mouth.
As I said before, I am quite disgusted when others feed me saliva without my consent. Sêx, to me is a healthy physical demand and a form of exercise. It is best if related to love but not a necessary condition. It should be part of a normal adult life, but one should not overly indulge in it… one should pay great attention to the atmosphere. Both side’s feelings are very important, so if you don’t follow my rules, I have the right to stop you at any time… (Author: You are a feminist I already knew, why do you think you have a naturally cold disposition? – ah, the “universal love” is getting wrongly accused, ah, I shall leave first!) [T/N: universal love= to love everyone equally]
However, if the subject of these words is my destined beauty, should I bend the rules?
Just when I was pondering this matter seriously, that person could not pry open my mouth and had already shifted to my earlobe, licking and sucking. The ear lobe was my sensitive region. The fellow’s rapid warm breaths fell on my neck and made me feel ticklish and yet …… that one.
Just when I decided to abandon my principles, that person hugged my neck tightly, wrapped his leg around my waist, and uttered my ear with a hoarse voice overwhelmed in ecstasy: “Qing, Qing, … hold me, hug me……”
My whole body froze: woman!
The development was a big one. It was the first time a woman slept in my bed! The familiar voice is… Hong Feng? Oh, it turned out that my tongfang couldn’t stand the loneliness in this spring evening.
“Hong Feng?” I called softly in a probing manner.
She stiffened and stopped moving. She put her head on my chest.
I called again and after a long time, she began to grow sullen under my chin answered in a faint, stuffy voice: “Yes, Daren.”
I really want to push her away, but… she seems upset.
Thinking about it, I haven’t had a chance to try out the newly added functions ever since I changed into a man. Whatever the taste may be, everyone has a natural curiosity. One can solve their hunger and thirst and do a philanthropic undertaking at the same time, and like this can kill two birds with one stone. Why not try something like this for once?
Anyway, with men it’s BL, with women it’s GL, there is no difference.
Thinking this way, I stretched my arm a little hesitantly and hugged her back.
Understanding my intentions, Hong Feng’s voice was filled with a dare-not-believe joy and excitedly said: “Qing-”
I closed my eyes and forced myself to touch her. It was alright, but when I touched her plump chest, though she was clenching her teeth and gasping for breath, I felt like being splashed with a bucket of cold water from above:
This kind of thing I also had once ah!
How could you be interested in a same-sex woman? As a heterosêxual woman.
Sure enough, the soul is even more important.
Hong Feng’s mood was raised up [T/N: Hórny], but I suddenly stopped moving. She squirmed spontaneously under my palm, gently rubbed her body with mine, clenched her teeth, panting and implored: “Qing … hurry up, faster…”
I was honestly quite embarrassed.
“Hong Feng…Sorry, I…”
When Hong Feng stopped, I could only feel the sharp undulations of her chest and the atmosphere grew frigid. After a long time, she whispered sourly: “Daren…”
“Daren, is Hong Feng not… In the past few days, Daren’s behavior is totally different from before. Daren has not called this one to serve him…. Hong Feng thinks that…” speaking upto here, the woman who was always cool-headed and independent actually choked up.
I have always been more tolerant to women than to men. This woman usually had a quiet and refined demeanor, and she is able to work diligently. She can be counted as ‘xiu wai hui zhong’ [T/N: Good-looking and intelligent] and I appreciate her very much. Now I see her suppressing her desires, shame, frustration, and trying to calm down her emotions. One cannot help but pity her.
If possible, I really want to finish it, so as to avoid the awkward and uncomfortable mood, but the new hardware is very uncooperative.
Ah, is it possible that I not only turned into a man, but due to excessive indulgence in sêxual activities have become impotent in early twenties? !
At this time, Hong Feng got up and set out to light a lamp. Beneath the light, from top to bottom she wore a sexy, red-colored silk gauze lined robe. Her shoulders were half exposed and her black hair hung loose. Compared to her usual rigorous and simple dresses, this one had an enchanting atmosphere. If I was a man, how would it be possible to let such an opportunity slip by, but unfortunately…
“Daren, do you need Hong Feng to serve you drinking water?” The tone was already calm, and it did not call me “Qing”.
“No need, you go to sleep…” I said warmly. Although I was also worried that my heart was a bit too soft, completely unlike Zhang Qinglian, but I couldn’t treat her with indifference. I looked closely under her eyes and finding no traces of water, I relaxed.
After Hong Feng went out, I lost sleep for the first time in this time and space.
Whoever thought that something like this would happen twice. The next night, my bed actually had an uninvited guest in the middle of the night: a male pet whose name I couldn’t remember.
I wouldn’t be so polite to a man as I was to a woman. I was furious and kicked him out of bed.
The man had a decent appearance, and he probably relied on it a lot. At this moment, seeing me angry, he got frightened and kneeled on the ground, begging for mercy.
I was overwhelmed with anger: I am a prostitute? Am I male-whore? Twice people have casually crawled into my bed, do they think I’m easy to bully?
I realized very quickly that I should not let these cheap people off easily! To let the tiger return to the mountains is actually injuring oneself! No wonder Zhang Qinglian wants to lock them up!
I rang the bell and summoned everyone, and pretty soon Hong Feng, Tian Chun, and Zhu Xianxi hurried in with disheveled clothes. I was so mad that my whole body was trembling. I pointed at the man and roared, “Throw this cheap slût out! Make sure he doesn’t take one step inside this mansion again! Break his leg if you must! In the future, whoever sneaks into my waterside pavilion arbitrarily, kill without mercy!”
Hong Feng’s complexion instantly paled. I was not targeting her at the moment. At the same time, I was a little regretful for saying it like that, but will Zhang Qinglian ever apologize to his tongfang?
I immediately shifted the target towards those two: “And you two! Is this how you guards protect me! A thing like this could sneak into my room, if it were an assassin I would have ended up dead !”
Tian Chun did not make a sound, but Zhu Xianxi could not help but voice out his grievances: “It was daren who said that he did not want a personal bodyguard, and refused to let us stay in the waterside pavilion!”
Yes ah, this Zhang Qinglian has “Jade Spider Art”(3) to protect his body, but currently I lack the strength to even truss up a chicken!
I spoke with an ashen face, “You people go away bah, get rid of this disgusting thing! I’m going to sleep.”(4)
Hing Feng went out last. I saw a little bit of her bitterness in her eyes, inevitably blaming myself for being temporarily muddle-headed and speaking irresponsibly.
The next day, I made a far-reaching decision: I decided to extend my personal bodyguard’s working time to twenty-four hours.
Or sleep with Yao Jinxi bah.
______
(1) This I guess
(2)They are in the water pavilion
Within that pavilion is an extended room
next to the extended room is a heated room.
The main house is the one to the right
then they just have hella rooms
and one of them is warm
The above explanation+ Drawing are all thanks to Helli.
(3)Yeah, about that… 功 was previously mentioned as “Art”, but I checked all it’s meanings and it translates as ‘power’, ‘achievement’ or ‘merit’. In “emperor’s domination” and some other novels, they use “merit law” to denote martial art techniques. But, to avoid confusion, I will keep it ‘art’.
(4)They used 杂碎= offal/mixed entrails/trivial matters but I will change it to suit the meaning better
Sorry for the delay. I have a 1-month long training from 6th so we went on a 2-day trip. Also, after coming back I kept procrastinating and then realized how difficult this chapter was. Sorry if the semi-adult scenes lack smuttiness.
Another SOL chapter with little to no relation to main plot… arghhh.
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Sorry there is no fixed schedule since, for now, this is just a hobby. Chapters will be up when they will be done.
