His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling

"Father...?" Rong Heng called him once again when the latter still didn’t give him a satisfactory answer. Due to the tension, he became nervous as well. His father had never been looking so serious like this before... He really started to make Rong Heng feel scared to hear his answer. Somehow, he felt that his guess was correct.

However, he still didn’t want to believe in it.

Was... Was his guess actually correct?! Was she really his father’s daughter?!

Rong Heng asked himself over and over again. He wanted to ask once again but his question was stuck inside his throat when he heard Rong Qiu’s question.

"How do you know?" Rong Qiu asked in a super low voice while furrowing his eyebrows in surprise. If Rong Heng wasn’t a martial arts practitioner, he wouldn’t be able to hear what Rong Qiu had just said. But too bad... he was exactly the person that would be able to hear his low whisper.

It felt like he was being electrocuted by a thunderbolt when he heard it. Rong Heng looked at Rong Qiu with wide eyes and threw a question in an urgent tone, "Please say that again?! What do you mean by ’how do you know’?! Is my guess actually true?"

"It’s true... she’s your sister..." Rong Qiu answered awkwardly. He didn’t say that they were blood-related, after all, they actually weren’t.

He didn’t know what kind of expressions that he should show him ah~! If he laughed happily, Rong Heng would be offended because he felt that he was his legal son. If he said it sadly, it would look like that he didn’t want Yao Ling when in fact, she was his real daughter. This was truly giving him a headache ah~! Everything had become complicated due to a decision from the past.

In the end, he could only look at Rong Heng helplessly. It was better if he chose to say it with a blank face.

"You... You... How could you... do that?" Rong Heng pointed at Rong Qiu while he was speechless. The former had thought that his father was loyal to her mother and used him as his role model. But... he found out that it was actually a lie. He looked at Rong Qiu with a hurt look on his face.

However, in the end, there was actually nothing that he could do.

If his father wanted to have a woman, could he prevent him as his child? He couldn’t. He also knew that when her mother was gone, his father was still in the prime age of his life. How could he endure the loneliness... and the urge to do ’that’.

But still... a sister?

Out of nowhere?

Somehow, he couldn’t accept it ah~!

"When? How? Why?" Rong Heng wanted to know the details while looking at Rong Qiu intently and waiting for his explanation.

Rong Qiu didn’t even know where to start the story. Since the beginning when he took his father’s spot? Or when he met Yao Ling first? He had already planned what he wanted to say beforehand but when he saw Rong Heng’s disappointed expression, he couldn’t remember any of it at the moment. He couldn’t even look at Rong Heng straightly because he could only feel guilt in his heart.

"We just found it out by accident as well..." Rong Qiu started his story. No matter what, he had to tell the story in detail.

"How?" Rong Heng asked.

It seemed like he should tell Rong Heng what really happened back at Crescent Lake, but he started the story with Xiao Fang’s journey to find Han Xiang and the hidden truth about the Han Emperor which led Yao Ling and friends come to the Crescent Lake. Thus, they found out the truth and that truth involved him as well.

Rong Qiu looked at seriously at Rong Heng and said, "You should have known that I really didn’t have a plan to lie to you... What happened is really a piece of surprising news for me as well... Even until now, I’m still feeling everything that had happened is so surreal."

Rong Heng glared at him. Surreal? If he didn’t have any intimate relationship with another woman, how could this happen? Yao Ling wouldn’t ’pop’ out of nowhere without them doing the deed ah~! In the end, it was all because he couldn’t hold back his own urge to copulate! Rong Heng knew that he was being unfair here but Rong Heng just couldn’t stop blaming Rong Qiu --- he didn’t want him to forget about her mother.

Rong Qiu could see the blaming look on Rong Heng’s face but he decided not to dwell on it that much. In the end, he continued to tell Rong Heng and Wu Cheng the story without batting eyelashes. Both of them were too shocked at the revelation and they didn’t even have the chance to ask a question throughout the story-telling process.

They listened to Rong Qiu seriously without making any sound, not only that, but they also could only look at Rong Qiu with wide eyes and open jaws, feeling so surprised.

What... What... What... What?! What kind of crazy thing that they had just heard?

Did they hear it wrongly? But when they looked at the bewildered look between the two of them, it seemed like they heard it right. But... But...

How could they feel that it was actually a myth or... a lie that was created by Rong Qiu just to make them feel better? A hidden power? Bei Yue Clan? Aunt Yue?

How could they believe in such nonsense? But... even the Han Emperor also believed in it... thus, they were speechless as well.

"Father... I know that you are feeling guilty, but do you really need to make up a weird story like that?" Rong Heng asked in disbelief. He lowered his voice and said, "I’m not as gullible as the Han Emperor who believes in that nonsense."

Rong Qiu smacked his head. "Even though the Han Emperor is unconscious, you can’t talk badly about him. Remember the consequences!"

Rong Heng just grinned sheepishly. He used to talk openly with the other soldiers and forget that this was the Capital --- he needed to guard his mouth.

Rong Qiu sighed. "Why would I lie to you?! Besides, this is not the end of the story yet... There are more bizarre things that will make you feel that I lie to you again..."

"Oh yes... yes... You haven’t told me who Yao Ling’s mother is!" Rong Heng exclaimed, thinking that Rong Qiu was talking about this matter. Due to the crazy magical story, he almost forgot about that matter.

Wu Zheng opened his mouth, wanting to ask something but finally deciding against it. This kind of private matter, it would be better if Rong Heng was the one who asked the question.

Rong Heng had a tacit understanding with Wu Cheng and asked, "Is her mother... Aunt Yue?"

Rong Qiu really got a headache. This matter again! Aunt Yue was his mother, alright?! However, everyone knew how young his mother’s appearance was so no wonder people would think of her as his woman.

"No! Of course not!" Rong Qiu yelled. He couldn’t stand it anymore because he was really feeling frustrated. He started to get angry, thus, he said, "Shut your mouth! Let me finish telling you the story!"
