THE QUEEN'S TRUE LOVE

CHAPTER 19

Peng Peng was sleeping when Qi Sheng came to caress his face then flicked it. Thinking of him Lu Li, Peng Peng complained to Lu Li not to disturb his sleep.

"Open your eyes and look at me."

Peng Peng instantly woke up instantly hearing Qi Sheng's voice. "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

Qi Sheng just looked at her then suddenly pulled down his sleeves. Peng Peng clearly protested and demanded an explanation.

Qi Sheng remained silent, but then he smeared the medicine onto Peng Peng's cheek which still seemed to be the mark of his slap.

Qi Sheng confessed that he had investigated the case and found that when Ying Yue changed clothes, he refused to be helped by the maid. That's why, now he realizes that Peng Peng is not the culprit.

"Nearly after the incident, I was already beginning to suspect. It's just, I was brash back then. I'm sorry."

Peng Peng did not accept it with just an apology, especially at that time everyone thought he was the culprit. Qi Sheng understood his suffering, but he hoped that this matter would be resolved until here. Peng Peng cynically heard it. Well, he understood that Qi Sheng wanted to protect Ying Yue.

Peng Peng left. But then she confessed that she actually knew that although Ying Yue looked weak and gentle, but she was actually sneaky.

"If you knew that Madame Jiang was a tea-leaf woman, then why do you still like her?"

"Tea leaves?"

Peng Peng explained that the tea leaves are girls who look beautiful, innocent, pious, the types of women who don't seem to do bad things. But in reality, such women like to pretend to be weak, rotten and very cunning.

Hearing that, Peng Peng thought that there used to be a lot of tea-leaf women around as well.

"I understand that I also fall in love with that type of woman quite often."

"You're starting to talk nonsense again. Rest up. As long as your wounds haven't healed, don't wander everywhere."

Peng Peng was enjoying a flower bath when Yang Yan suddenly flew out of the air. Again the landing failed and immediately splashed into Peng Peng's bathtub while the row thought he was drowning. Peng Peng had to slap him to wake him up.

While closing his eyes in order not to see the body of half tel~~~ngnya Peng Peng, Yang Yan handed over the medicine bottle he was carrying.

He came to give Jiu Wang this medicine to Peng Peng. This medicine was better than Qi Sheng's medicine.

"Where do you know that Qi Sheng gave me medicine?"

"Not long after Qi Sheng went to your residence that night, you shouted. I heard it when I sat on the roof of your house. You don't have to hide it. Husband's scrape can be hidden for a while, but it can't be hidden forever."

Peng Peng was obviously shocked to hear that Yang Yan was on the roof of his house that night. "Who said I was tortured? I haven't been tortured for 3 days and you've got the courage to go up to my roof and eavesdrop?"

"Your scream is not loud but it's not slow either. It sounds like a lot of pain, but trying not to make a sound, but not being able to hold it and finally being that kind of scream."

Yang Yan was curious. Was it because Peng Peng blamed Ying Yue, hence Qi Sheng punishing him? Upset, Peng Peng kicked Yang Yan and insisted that Qi Sheng's night only helped him apply medicine, he couldn't stand the pain so he shouted.
