1314: Chapter 1314: You Donât Understand Women (2) 1314: Chapter 1314: You Donât Understand Women (2) âYouâre wrong,â Yang Ruxin sneered.
âItâs just the opposite.
What you can give me, he can also give me, but what he can give me, you can never provide.â
âDo tell,â he said.
âSincerity!â Yang Ruxin looked at Qi Jingyun.
âAnd a love that lasts from the beginning to the end.â
Qi Jingyun just laughed, âThe so-called sincerity and love that women speak of are nothing more than a manâs doting.
If you were with me, due to your lowly birthright, aside from the position of principal wife, which I cannot offer you, I can still make you the first consort.
Moreover, I could let you run the Wang Residenceâs inner courtyard, and most months, Iâd spend the majority of my time in your roomâŠâ
Yang Ruxin actually really wanted to spit in Qi Jingyunâs face.
A bit of arrogance was one thing, but this man was shamelessly proud of his own pompousness.
With that, she pushed him away with force and then fixed her dress, âThird Master, I think youâve misunderstood me, though, itâs not exactly a misunderstanding, because youâve never had a heart, nor do you know what love is.
So, my words just now were indeed like playing the lute to a cowâŠâ
Suddenly, Qi Jingyunâs hand shot out towards Yang Ruxinâs neck from behind, âHow dare you, did you really thinkâŠâ But his hand stopped two inches from her neck, because a sharp dagger was pressed against his wrist.
He believed that if he dared to move any closer, his wrist would be utterly disabled.
âPrince, my life may not be valuable, but I certainly donât wish to throw it away so casually.
So, if anyone wishes to take it, I donât mind having both of us lose,â the atmosphere around Yang Ruxin changed as she asserted herself, âIâm sure the Prince wouldnât want to make such a losing deal, right?â
Qi Jingyunâs eyes narrowed slightly, but in the end, he withdrew his hand, yet he seemed somewhat perplexed, âIâm not better than that man?â
âBeauty is in the eye of the beholder.
My man doesnât need to be compared with anyone else,â Yang Ruxin smiled lightly.
âHeâs the best in my eyes, and thatâs enough.
As for other men, whether theyâre good or not, what does that have to do with me?â
Qi Jingyun frowned, âCan I take this as you playing hard to get?â
âHeh, the Prince is not short of women, but you just donât understand them,â Yang Ruxin scoffed.
âIn this era, women are treated as accessories, little do they know, women can actually hold up half the sky.
Isnât the Princess Nishang from the previous dynasty a good example?
The so-called doting you speak of is not what all women desireâŠâ
âWhat do you want then?â
âIâve said it: sincerity and a lifetime of love,â Yang Ruxinâs brows slightly raised.
âTo hold hands with my beloved till old age.
The Prince has a pair of hands, one to wield a sword and clear obstacles, the other could hold the one you love.
Unfortunately, you love too many, and canât possibly hold them allâŠâ she paused a moment, âPerhaps those women might even attack each other just to hold your hand, and when that time comes, it will probably be a headacheâŠâ
Qi Jingyunâs frown deepened, and though he didnât move, the hand behind his back clenched.
âIâve said what I needed to, I will take my leave,â Yang Ruxin nodded slightly, then turned to leave.
âAre you certain he can be with you, and only you, for a lifetime?â Qi Jingyun suddenly spoke up, âDonât forget, itâs customary for a man to have three wives and four concubines.
Only an incompetent man would have just one woman, or even worse, fail to find a wifeâŠ
IfâŠâ
