A Delightful Marriage with Twins

Chapter 95: 05. Who Made You Unhappy?

The Girl’s sobs on the phone were filled with anxiety, hesitation, and fear. “Sister He... It’s... It’s me! I... I’m Qing Xing!”

He Yi fluttered her eyelashes in surprise and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong with you?”

Qing Xing sobbed again, sounding helpless and sad.

He Yi didn’t know why, but she had a bad feeling in her heart. She couldn’t explain it. Maybe it was just her sixth sense. She had a feeling that something big must have happened for Qing Xing to call, and it might have something to do with Yi Liangze.

But soon, she suppressed this strange thought and stopped her imagination. “What’s wrong? Say Something!”

After crying for a while, Qing Xing gathered her courage and said, “Sister He, can you come over?”

“This...” He Yi looked at the time and felt a little awkward. “There are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with in the factory! If it’s convenient, come and find me!”

The main reason was that the shock from that day had left a lingering fear in her heart. Four to five days had passed, but she still did not dare to leave the house easily.

Qing Xing felt even more awkward and even found it difficult to say, “... on the phone... it’s not convenient to say...”

He Yi listened in a daze. She knew that it might be something related to a girl’s reputation, so she really couldn’t say it over the phone. She hesitated. After all, they had only met once. There didn’t seem to be sufficient reasons to take risks for each other.

Last year in Beiping, it was the time to eat green apricots. This year, my fate was even sourer than Qing Xing’s.

For some reason, He Yi thought of the unconcealable tears in Qing Xing’s eyes when she recited this poem. This girl whose fate was even sourer than green apricots had indeed aroused her sympathy. Because of the same troubled fate, He Yi felt more sympathy for Qing Xing, who had become helpless and even a plaything, than she was wary of.

Finally, she made a decision. “You wait! I’ll settle the matters in the factory, and I’ll come over to look for you in about two hours!”

*

The luxurious Banquet was grand and magnificent, and the golden wall was as splendid as a fairyland in heaven. However, after entering the interior, passing through the vast and magnificent main building, there were a few simple tube-shaped buildings at the end of the complex, which seemed to be incompatible with the overall style of this palace.

This was the staff building of the Banquet, and inside was just an ordinary unit room, which was used as the dormitory for the staff.

Qing Xing also lived here. The difference was that she had an independent standard suite and did not need to share a suite with several people like other service ladies.

Yi Liangze undoubtedly gave Qing Xing special treatment in terms of living. This was not because he admired her, but because the tea lady needed to maintain a clean aura, if she lived with some messy people, it might affect her temperament.

Therefore, Qingxing had her standard suite. She took two baths every day to ensure that she always exuded fresh and clean air.

He Yi met her in her dormitory suite.

Qing Xing did not wash. She looked very different from her usual exquisite look. Her hair was disheveled. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying. When she saw He Yi, she continued to cry. She did not even dare to look up.

He Yi wasn’t in a hurry to persuade her not to cry. She sat down on a small cloth sofa and placed her bag on the coffee table next to her.

The bachelor’s apartment was decorated very warmly, but it looked a little messy at the moment. It was probably because she hadn’t cleaned it up properly recently.

There was no tea made by Qing Xing, no greetings, only the grievance of tears. Ever since He Yi entered the room, she had been crying. It was a suppressed sob as if she was afraid of being heard.

“Did young master Yi make you feel wronged?” He Yi’s clear eyes flickered, and the corners of her lips curled up.

Qing Xing seemed to be frightened, and her crying instantly disappeared. She raised her head in panic, her eyes filled with surprise.

Looking at her gaze, He Yi knew that she had guessed correctly! Because the girl in front of her was too transparent, she didn’t know how to hide her emotions.

“Tell me, what exactly happened?” He Yi looked at Qing Xing, unwilling to believe the answer that was on the tip of her tongue.

The beautiful tea girl cried in a grievance. There was something she couldn’t tell her over the phone, so He Yi had to come over personally to talk about it. Seeing her crying again and not saying anything, He Yi couldn’t help but guess something – did Yi Liangze smear Qing Xing after he got drunk?

He Yi rejected Yi Liangze several times, but she didn’t resist the last time. She just told him that she wanted to have sex with him in her best condition for the first time, and he didn’t force her, he hadn’t come back since that night (perhaps because he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control himself).

It was just that he called last night and told her to get ready, and that he might take her back to the Yi family for dinner tonight.

She was the one who requested to visit the elders of the Yi family and visit the two children at the same time. If Yi Liangze insisted, she planned to stay in his room tonight.

The two children were already old enough. They were in love with each other. The wedding date was right in front of them. She did not want to continue being unreasonable.

If he wanted it, she would give it to him! This was the only body she could give him!

If he liked it, she would not be stingy!

That night’s rejection was only because she didn’t want to leave any regrets, not because she was unwilling.

However, it was as if her fate was destined for too many tribulations. Qing Xing found her and cried the moment they met as if someone had taken advantage of her.

He Yi couldn’t think of anyone else who would dare to take advantage of Qing Xing at this banquet other than Yi Liangze.

Qing Xing’s virginity was extremely precious. Other than Yi Liangze, who would dare to touch her?

Qing Xing mustered up her courage and looked at He Yi with tears in her eyes. She was timid and nervous. Her watery eyes seemed to be as innocent as a deer. “I know that sister He is young master Yi’s fiancée and my future mistress. I respect sister He very much, and I respect young master Yi as if he were a god. I never dare to have any thoughts that I shouldn’t have...” as she said this.., she seemed to find it difficult to speak and swallowed the rest of her words.

He Yi managed to maintain the curve of her lips, even though her heart kept sinking as if it was sinking into a bottomless abyss. “If you have anything to say, just say it. If you have been wronged, just say it. I prefer straightforward girls.”

“I. . .” Despite being encouraged by He Yi, Qing Xing was still trembling in fear. She carefully observed He Yi’s expression, she carefully said, “I... I never deliberately tempted young master Yi! That day, he wanted to drink crisp green tea... I... To make the taste of the tea more perfect, I improvised... improvised... at that time, I didn’t wear clothes, but I didn’t expect young master Yi to enter the tea room early...”

He Yi’s father, He Hanlin, was also an expert in the tea ceremony. Because her father loved the tea ceremony, she had been influenced by him since she was young, so she was naturally familiar with all kinds of tea leaves. She had never drunk crisp green before, but she knew how to prepare crisp green tea.

According to legend, the tip of a fresh leaf picked with dew in the morning was placed on the clean crisp breasts of a young girl and slowly dried. The biggest characteristic of this tea was its sweet frankincense fragrance. In addition, because of its fragrant and gorgeous processing method, it added a layer of mystery to the tea.

Yi Liangze liked to drink crisp green tea? He Yi couldn’t help but feel angry. However, she didn’t show it. She just slightly curved the corner of her mouth and tried to squeeze out another smile, but in the end, she failed.

“It was quite awkward at that time. I. . . I hurriedly put on my clothes and made tea for young master Yi. He didn’t blame me for being impolite. I thought that there was nothing else, so I concentrated on making tea. Who knew...” Qing Xing finally lowered her gaze, her beautiful face was so embarrassed that she couldn’t hide her embarrassment. “Young Master Yi... he...” speaking up to this point, she still couldn’t tell how Yi Liangze had molested her. She could only hold back her embarrassment and tears, she choked and continued, “I. I didn’t comply, so I pushed him away and ran out!”

He Yi bit her lip and stared at Qing Xing’s embarrassed beautiful face. She couldn’t help but frown. Was this Yi Liangze’s style? Why did she feel so unfamiliar with the man that came out of Qing Xing’s mouth! Would he do such a thing?

“Qing Xing knows that her status is low, and young master Yi also has a fiancée. I would never dare tarnish young master Yi’s clean name. Although I disobeyed him at that time, I believe that he will understand my sincerity in the future!” Qing Xing gripped her clothes tightly with both hands, she was so nervous that she couldn’t breathe. “From that day on, young master Yi never summoned me into the tea room again! It’s been four or five days, so I asked around. He... he changed to another tea girl! Sister He... I’ve made young master Yi unhappy! He... He hates me! He... He doesn’t want me anymore...”

Qing Xing’s beautiful eyes were filled with fear and despair. It seemed that making Yi Liang dislike her was the scariest thing in the world, just like the end of the world.

At this moment, Qing Xing was like a puppy that was about to be abandoned by its owner, cowering in a corner in fear.

He Yi felt that she was almost out of breath. She forcefully swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked in a strange voice, “You never saw him again?”

“No! He doesn’t want to see me anymore!” Qing Xing cried pitifully. She looked at He Yi as if she was the last straw to save her life. “Sister He, please help me plead! I don’t think I’m wrong! Young Master Yi is angry. He has a new tea girl... i. I’m so afraid that he will send me away! I don’t want to have a new master. Please help me!”

He Yi looked at her, her chest heaving up and down.

She probably thought that saving her wouldn’t be of much use. Qing Xing was a tea girl who had served many masters. She knew that if she wanted to settle down, she had to show some value. “Sister he, I don’t know what kind of temper the new tea girl has. What if... She lets him do whatever he wants to please young master Yi! If something like that happens again, you will be angry! Why don’t you send that new tea girl away and take me back! I promise that I will never do anything out of line with young master Yi. Please believe me!”

He Yi felt like her lungs were about to explode! She closed her eyes and steadied her mind. She kept telling herself that this was just Qing Xing’s side of the story.

After a long silence, she opened her eyes amid Qing Xing’s helpless sobs and asked coldly, “Are there any surveillance cameras in the Tea Room?”

*

Of course, there were surveillance cameras in the Tea Room! However, the surveillance cameras here were not something that anyone could see just because they wanted to!

He Yi found Yu Shujun and requested the surveillance cameras in the tea room for a week. She wanted to see them for herself.

Yu Shujun was a little surprised. “What’s wrong? Something’s missing?”

He Yi suppressed the anger and suffering in her heart and said calmly, “That’s right! There’s something inside that doesn’t matter. It’s better if I can find it!”

Even though it was something that didn’t matter, Yu Shujun couldn’t seem to find a reason to reject He Yi’s request to check the surveillance cameras.

Yu Shujun brought He Yi to the surveillance room. Seeing that Qing Xing was by her side, she asked, “Do you want Qing Xing to stay here?”

“Let her stay here! Thank you!” He Yi nodded her head to express her gratitude.

After Yu Shujun left, He Yi turned on the surveillance footage and found the video from the day of the incident.

Qing Xing curled up at the side, looking as if she was resigned to fate. He Yi’s pretty face was cold as she silently watched the video on the surveillance camera.

The quality of the video was very clear. It was clear that the tea room was specially equipped with a high-resolution camera. The scene of Qing Xing taking off her clothes was very beautiful. There was no erotic feeling at all. On the contrary, it had extraordinary holiness.

The girl was lying in the royal bed that was sprinkled with sunlight. She was baking green tea with her soft breasts like a sleeping beauty. Anyone who saw her would be involuntarily attracted to her. Green smoke rose from the sandalwood and bronze incense burner beside her, and it seemed that one could smell the fragrance through the screen.

Until Yi Liangze walked in.

Qing Xing did not notice until the tea baking was done. When she opened her eyes and got up, she found that the owner of the Tea Room had come in. She hurriedly pulled her clothes and put them on.

Yi Liangze’s expression was a little awkward, but he only avoided looking at her. He did not immediately leave the tea room to avoid suspicion. Instead, he walked straight to the tea table and sat down.

He Yi could not help but nod slightly. This was Yi Liangze’s style. In his eyes, the tea room was his place. Even if he bumped into Qing Xing who was naked, he only slightly averted his gaze to show he was a gentleman. He did not have the slightest intention of leaving the tea room to avoid her.

This man was so domineering. In his eyes, Qing Xing was just a tea set, a personal item that belonged to him. Of course, he would not consciously avoid it to show his innocence — because Qing Xing was not qualified enough for him to do that!

Next, Qing Xing, who was dressed, walked over and began to make tea. Everything seemed normal. However, when Yi Liangze took the tea bowl, his gaze seemed to linger on Qing Xing’s chest for about two seconds. Then, he moved his gaze away and slowly sipped the tea as if nothing had happened.

He Yi’s heart skipped a beat. She knew very well that Qing Xing, who was hastily putting on her top, did not have time to put on her underwear.

After taking a sip of tea, Yi Liangze put down the teacup and said a few words to Qing Xing. The surveillance cameras could only see the images, but they could not hear anything. They did not know what they were talking about. Then, Yi Liangze picked up the teacup again and finished the tea in one gulp.

He Yi could not help but frown again. Of course, he had to sip the tea in small mouthfuls to savor the flavor of the tea. Was he too impatient to finish the tea in one gulp? What was he so impatient for?

Qing Xing poured out the remaining tea, changed the tea set, and then made a new tea.

Throughout the whole process, Yi Liangze enjoyed the tea with certainty. It didn’t seem strange, but she still saw the familiar burning heat in his eyes.

She was too familiar with his gaze. Every time he looked at her with this gaze, it meant that he was already aroused.

He Yi never thought that one day, he would look at another woman with the same gaze — another girl who was younger and more beautiful than her!

His heart felt as if it was frozen. The coldness began to condense from her heart and spread to her limbs and bones. Finally, even her hair was frozen.

After drinking another bowl of tea, Yi Liangze put down the cup. At the same time, his big hand naturally slipped into Qing Xing’s collar.

Qing Xing was shocked. When she realized that her master, whom she respected as a god, was taking liberties with her, she used all her strength to push him away.

Yi Liangze didn’t know whether it was because Qing Xing rejected him or because he had recovered from his hastiness, but he was stunned for a moment. Qing Xing took advantage of his stunned state to get up and stagger away.

Yi Liangze was the only one left in the tea room. He turned his head and she couldn’t see whether he was angry or embarrassed. In short, he was quite uncomfortable.

After a while, he picked up his phone and made a call. Then, he got up and left.

The scene was still for a long time as if it was frozen at that moment and had completely forgotten to continue moving forward. Only the fragrance in the rosewood copper cauldron was still lingering, proving that time had not stopped.

Turning off the surveillance camera, she could not come back to her senses for a moment.

“Sister He,” Qing Xing’s trembling voice was heard. “What’s wrong with you?”

He Yi then realized that she had been pressing her palm on the spot where her heart was because it seemed to have frozen solid ice, causing her to shiver. She raised her head with difficulty, and the gaze she shot at Qing Xing was almost as cold as her heart. “Did you soak the previous masters in crisp green?”

Qing Xing was stunned. Her beautiful face was even more colorless. She did expect He Yi to cry or break down in anger after looking at the monitor. Instead, she asked such a sharp question. For a moment, she could not answer correctly.

“If you soaked these things for every master you served, it would be too strange for you to remain a virgin until now!” He Yi sneered. Her voice was like a sharp blade cutting through Qing Xing. “Don’t tell me that you’re ignorant of the world! Don’t tell me that the Masters before now are all accomplished monks who treat you as a saint! You know very well the bad nature of men, why do you still dare to provoke him?”

“I... I didn’t! I didn’t provoke him!” Qing Xing jumped up as if she had been stabbed, trying to defend herself in panic. “Sister He, you believe me... i. I didn’t! I just... I just wanted to make a cup of good tea for young master Yi! I’m a tea maid and I just wanted to let my master sip good tea! In the past... I’ve made tea before... but I prepared it before the master entered the tea room. This time... Young Master Yi entered the tea room ahead of schedule for some reason...”

At this point, Qing Xing cried again aggrievedly. “If I had the intention to seduce Young Master Yi, why did I reject him?”

He Yi’s heart froze, and she couldn’t say another word.

According to the surveillance footage, if Qing Xing had rolled into Yi Liangze’s arms after being half-pushed, it wasn’t hard to imagine what would have happened next.

If Qing Xing had the intention, she really shouldn’t have rejected him and ran out.

After that, Yi Liangze never called Qing Xing into the tea room again. He even changed to a new tea girl. It was obvious that he was angry from embarrassment because he was rejected.

That was because he did not succeed!

Yi Liangze was a very proud man. He probably would not pester her. Therefore, Qing Xing’s rejection was equivalent to destroying her future. Her future was completely in Yi Liangze’s hands.

If Yi Liangze thought that she could not handle it and was afraid that she would say something that should not be said and cause him unnecessary trouble, it was likely that the most direct way would be to transfer her again — to give her as a gift to the next owner!

This was the reason why Qing Xing was in a constant state of panic. It was also the reason why she had completely broken down and was so desperate that she could only ask her for help.

He Yi subconsciously rubbed her hands and found that her entire body was frozen stiff, even her fingertips were frozen. However, with the tenacity that she had endured through all these years, she still maintained her composure and didn’t reveal the slightest bit of panic and helplessness.

What’s the big deal? She would never play the piano she loved more than she did five years ago when she had nothing to lose. When she was beaten black and blue by women in prison, when her left thumb was cut, and when she would never play the piano she loved most. Compared to her day and night living on the father’s guilt of missing her daughter, life was worse than death... the current situation was nothing!

It was just a man! Just a man!

But why did her heart ache and her nose ache so much that she felt as if she was stepping on the edge of a cliff in the night? Why did her heart feel desolate and her body felt cold as if she had nothing to live for? Were the clear drops of water from the corner of her eyes her tears?

“Sister He,” Qing Xing looked more pathetic and desperate than He Yi. “Please save me! I won’t dare to make young master Yi crisp green again! I promise to wear the most conservative clothes in front of him in the future. If I really can’t...” she suddenly saved the most effective method, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up like stars. “I would ruin my face, so I don’t have to worry about something like this happening again!”

The antlers of a deer and the fragrance of musk were the root of trouble! If a deer lost its antlers and the musk lost its fragrance, would it be able to avoid the fate of being hunted down?

The disfigured Qing Xing should be a true tea lady! Her only remaining value was her near-perfect tea-making skills. The master who took her in was the one who was truly obsessed with tea-making, which was also her true joy!

He Yi fiercely knocked down the dagger in Qing Xing’s hand, she scolded, “Do you think it’s because of your looks? You’re too stupid! With your face disfigured, what’s left of your value will be gone. Even if he wants to give you away, he can only give you to some unrated people! Save it, don’t be stupid!”

*

Leaving the monitoring room, the sun outside was dazzling. He Yi subconsciously covered her eyes with her palm.

It was almost June. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, but she felt as if she had just walked out of a world of ice and snow. She has frozen to the point that her whole body was stiff, and she had not recovered until now.

The wedding date was set at the end of April in the Old Calendar. There was less than a week left.

He Yi had a premonition that the marriage she had once again chosen might be another cage. And she no longer had the strength and energy to struggle desperately in another cage before finally breaking out of it.

She and Yi Liangze’s wedding had been decided too hastily! They had only known each other for three months, and they are getting married in a flash. How much did she know about him?

Just as He Yi’s mood was at its worst, Yi Liangze called. She glanced at the phone, and then silently pushed it away.

She wasn’t in the mood to deal with him, and she didn’t know what to say. He Yi felt that she should find a quiet place to think about it.

However, the phone rang again and again, and he would not give up until he achieved his goal.

This was indeed Yi Liangyi’s style. He would not give up until he achieved his goal! For example... he wanted to marry her, and he wanted to uproot Chu Tianyi!

He wanted to marry her for the sake of the two children, and he wanted to uproot Chu Tianyi for the sake of his pride!

The two children were her and his flesh and blood. Their union formed a perfect family. Chu Tianyi was her ex-husband. In his eyes, it was a stain on her and also a disgrace to him, for the sake of the perfection of this marriage and the face of his man, he was determined to get rid of Chu Tianyi.

He Yi knocked on her head and muttered to herself “What are you thinking about? What’s wrong with marrying him? The children have a strong father, and he can protect them very well! He sees Chu Tianyi as a thorn in his flesh, and he wants to get rid of him quickly. Isn’t that what you want to do? You and he have the same goal and direction!”

However, no matter how much she tried to persuade herself, she was still unable to convince herself. It was because she did not have confidence in herself. When she saw Yi Liangze also having feelings for other women, when she saw his big hand reaching into another woman’s clothes, a certain part of her chest felt as if it was being torn apart.

If only she did not love him! Everyone would get what they wanted, and everyone would be happy!

However, she could not remain indifferent! She couldn’t tolerate his betrayal and unfaithfulness, and she couldn’t tolerate him making the mistakes that all men would make!

She couldn’t forgive him! she refused to forgive him!

She gritted her teeth countless times, and her heart hardened countless times. In the end, she still couldn’t hate him! But she couldn’t marry him either!

If she retreated now, she might be hurt, but she believed that she could survive! But if she married him, she had no confidence in what she would look like after marriage!

Nor did she have the confidence to think that she still had the strength to break out of the second bad marriage!

When she married Chu Tianyi, she was pregnant with a child of unknown origin. She knew that it was ridiculous, but she chose to accept it so that the child would not be born with the stigma of an illegitimate child. The facts proved how ridiculous her choice was.

Now, she knew that choosing Yi Liangze was all wrong, but she still insisted on marrying him. She only wanted to use his hand to get rid of Chu Tianyi because she wanted to avenge her father too much! A marriage with too many utilitarian and purposeful choices was destined to be unhappy!

While she used him, how would she know what price she would have to pay?

He Yi wept sadly. She did not want to get to the day when she and Yi Liang turned against each other and hated each other!

There was once a wrong marriage that was so rushed that it was absurd. She could not repeat the same mistake!

He Yi sat quietly in a row of chairs under the shade of the trees in the backyard. She rested her hand on her forehead as she pondered. She had been maintaining this posture for a very, very long time. Until a familiar, panting voice sounded beside her.

“What are you doing? I’ve called you so many times, but you didn’t pick up!” When the man rushed to her side, it was obvious that he was anxious. He had lost his usual calmness and composure, even though he was scolding her.., however, there was a hint of nervousness and guilt in his voice. “Who made you unhappy?”
