Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Chapter 153

Qin Zhao did not want Qi Yan Su Luo to know that Zi Tan, whom she had been with for several days, was actually an old lecher in his original form!

So she said, "I just feel that Zi Tan's original appearance is too ugly."

Before leaving, Qin Zhao set fire to the wooden house and burned it down.

Qin Zhao took Qi Yan Su Luo's hand, "Alright, let's go."

Qi Yan Su Luo asked: "Where to?"

"The northwest border."

Subsequently, Qin Zhao told her about her taking her to fight for the emperor in the northwest.

Qi Yan Su Luo snorted and said, "Aren't you afraid your red-faced confidantes in the army will forget you if you don't go back?"

Qin Zhao saw that Qi Yan Su Luo was clearly aloof, but her words were so sour.

She was captivated by her contrast and gave her a kiss!

Qi Yan Su Luo grabbed her mouth, "You're too passionate, so licentious."

Qin Zhao said unclearly: "Don't be a hypocrite, you just like me like this."

Qi Yan Su Luo denied: "I don't like it."

"Whether you like it or not, as long as you're with me."

Qi Yan Su Luo didn't speak again, and the two walked quietly for a while.

Qin Zhao asked, "Why did you leave Princess Zhao Yang's mansion?"

"My brother said that if I didn't leave, he would kill you."

Qin Zhao remembered seeing the corpses of those grasslanders at the cliff bottom and said, "So you just killed them?"

Between her own brother and herself, she had chosen herself. Qin Zhao was somewhat moved.

Qi Yan Su Luo said, "I was forced by circumstances. If you think that was my expression of fondness for you, you'd better dispel such childish ideas.

My situation does not give me the standing to like anyone, nor can I afford heavy emotions like love."

Qin Zhao was not angry at all, because she was equally cautious about Qi Yan Su Luo.

She reached out and cupped Qi Yan Su Luo's face, rubbing and pinching it.

Qi Yan Su Luo was forced to purse her lips and ask, "What are you doing?"

Qin Zhao said, "Even if you don't like me, I'll still let you kiss me and sleep with me.

You should at least express your gratitude for my generosity."

Qin Zhao felt the temperature of her cheeks slowly rising in the palm of her hand.

Qi Yan Su Luo said, "If you interact with me more instead of lying there like a log every time, I would be more grateful to you."

Qin Zhao let her go, "We can try when we have time."

502 had planned a shortcut for Qin Zhao, which was over 200 li shorter than the route of the main troops.

If they quickened their pace, they might be able to reach the northwest border earlier.

They walked from noon until dusk, stopping by a stream.

Qin Zhao said, "We'll rest here tonight."

"Ok, I'll go find some dry branches for a fire."

Qin Zhao saw that Qi Yan Su Luo was walking a bit awkwardly and asked, "What's wrong with your feet?"

Qi Yan Su Luo said, "It's nothing, I'm probably just too tired, but I still have the strength to fetch branches."

Qin Zhao looked at her back suspiciously.

After a while, she retracted her gaze and took off her shoes to step into the water at the streamside.

Stepping on the pebbles hurt but also felt comfortable, relieving some of the fatigue in her muscles.

The little fish in the water brushed past her calves with the current, tickling her.

Qin Zhao walked to the center and stood there for a good while.

The fish gradually relaxed their vigilance against her and gathered around her legs in groups, circling around and occasionally nibbling at her toes.

Qin Zhao held in her laugh and waited for nature's gift.

She waited for a long time until finally a fish longer than her foot came into view!

Qin Zhao was pleasantly surprised, but did not forget to hold her breath for fear of scaring the fish away.

She slowly squatted down like a sloth.

Just as she was about to reach out to grab the big fish that happened to stop where Qin Zhao could reach...

"Hey!"

With this shout, Qi Yan Su Luo successfully scared away the big fish!

The fish tail flapped furiously—slap, slap, slap—on Qin Zhao's face!

Qin Zhao was hit dumbstruck by the sudden fish tail slap and momentarily forgot how to react!

And she couldn't bear to throw the fish away, so she just let the fish slap her for a good while...

"Hahahahaha!"

Qi Yan Su Luo's laugh echoed between the mountains and waters!

As she laughed, she threw away the other fish and pulled out a dagger, grabbing the fish's tail and stabbing the knife into the fish's gills!

The fish thrashed a few times then stopped moving.

Meanwhile, Qin Zhao's face had been slapped by the fish tail until slightly swollen.

The effect was as if baby fat had appeared, somewhat suggestive of rejuvenation.

The princess had never suffered such humiliation before. She came to her senses from her stupor, felt the swelling and abnormal heat on her face, threw her arms around Qi Yan Su Luo, and burst into tears!

"Wuwuwu... Have I become ugly?"

Qi Yan Su Luo patted her back comfortingly, "No, you're the most beautiful."

"But my face hurts so much."

Qi Yan Su Luo waved her hand in the air, "No pain, no pain, I've shooed the pain away."

Qin Zhao buried her face in Qi Yan Su Luo's chest, nuzzling and rubbing.

Qi Yan Su Luo: "......"

She wanted to push her away, but restrained herself in the end.

After the soft massage, Qin Zhao's pain was alleviated.

Seeing her let Qi Yan Su Luo go with a satisfied expression on her face, Qi Yan Su Luo suddenly realized, "You weren't just pretending to cry to take advantage of me, were you?"

Qin Zhao gave a sly smile, "Who knows?"

Qi Yan Su Luo's expression darkened slightly as she said, "I see you've been let off too lightly!"

Qin Zhao played weak, "Good big sister, I'm not deceiving you, it really hurts.

Thanks to your comfort, I'm feeling much better now."

"Hmph."

Qi Yan Su Luo ignored her.

Qin Zhao stroked her nose and went to start a fire.

After the fire was burning, Qin Zhao took the fish to the stream to rinse it.

Qi Yan Su Luo was soaking her feet.

Qin Zhao lamented, "Tonight the fish we'll eat was washed using your footbath water, how blissful."

Qi Yan Su Luo felt mocked and lifted her feet out, "You should go upstream and wash the fish over there."

Qin Zhao was about to retort when she caught sight of several broken blisters on Qi Yan Su Luo's feet.

Her ankles were red and swollen with some water blisters.

She was rendered speechless.

After a while, she asked, "Didn't you say your feet were fine?"

Qi Yan Su Luo hid her feet back in the water again, "This little pain is nothing."

Qin Zhao continued her task in silence without another word.

Qi Yan Su Luo was always like this, bottling everything up instead of talking to her.

Well, if that was the case, then she wouldn’t say anything either.

To fight fire with fire!

The two went about their business on their hands and feet without speaking.

The sounds of washing fish and Qi Yan Su Luo scraping her feet in the water blended together to become the only noise in this desolate wilderness.
