Full Moon Wine (2)

d swooped down, skimming the surface of the water. With its claws, it snatched up the Jiao dragon that had been tossed about by the surging waters.It stopped at the foot of the slope, respectfully bow...Women are inherently insecure in relationships. Jiang Qiyun is considered cold and aloof, so I already feel a lack of security. What more can I say about my brother, who is so perceptive

Lin Yanqin had zero experience. Compared to my brother, she was like a little lamb.

Besides, reality is reality, and some chasms are not easily bridged.

Just like me and Jiang Qiyun, even if we go through the underworld wedding ceremony, wear red bridal gowns, receive worship from ghosts and gods, and drink blessings from celestial beings, in the mortal world I'm still a "single mother who got pregnant before marriage and was cheated on by a man".

Although my family and I don't take it seriously, three people make a tiger and many voices can wear away gold. In the eyes of others, I am a negative example.

Our family can completely ignore gossip. We are a family that walks between the realms of yin and yang, so what the world thinks doesn't matter to us. But the Lin family is different.

The Lin family cannot have even the slightest mistake, or else they will be trampled upon by others.

I suddenly understood a little. Lin Yanqin said that the first time my brother was with her, she only felt a slight pain, and most of the time it was gentle and comfortable. In the end, she was satisfied, and my brother took care of himself.

It seems unbelievable that when two people are deeply in love, they would be so concerned about these things.

I've personally experienced that feeling, my reason had long since collapsed. I didn't care about anything anymore, all I wanted was to hold my loved one tightly, not wanting to be separated from them for even a second.

We can turn a blind eye, indulge ourselves in that moment, and then face the consequences later.

But my brother can't. He's the head of the family, with elders above and children below. He can't afford to make mistakes in matters that could have serious consequences!

Ms. Lin said she didn't want to use a condom, he said okay, then he could only control himself.

Actually, my brother is just being careful.

He was being very careful and reserved around Miss Lin, wasn't he

After all, Miss Lin's family background couldn't withstand the kind of rumors I would have to face.

"So, what's going on with you... why do you smell like perfume"

“I don't have perfume, but I do have talcum powder. Didn't you remember when we were cleaning out the attic this morning Dad had a bunch of old junk in there for who knows how long. There was an old box of rouge that had gone bad and turned into pus. I touched it with my hand, maybe that's what smells like.”

He sniffed his shoulder: “......I feel like there's still a bit of scent, has my sense of smell and taste been ruined”

I couldn't help but lean in for a sniff. It smelled kind of nice, different from the usual soaps we use at home. Each soap has its own scent, but this one had a unique fragrance.

"What's wrong...I'll wash it again" My brother looked at me.

"What kind of powder scent could linger even after a shower You better go chat with Miss Lin. She's still standing outside pitifully, I'll go get her in." I said that and went out to explain to Lin Yanqin.

Lin Yanqin is a super nice girl. As long as what she hears makes sense, she can immediately accept it and even reflect on herself. This personality... I really misjudged her at first. She's a true lady from a noble family, with pride in her bones, but no bad temper.

However, that antique rouge made me a little uneasy. I went to the courtyard and turned on the light. Looking at the pile of goods stored under the eaves, scheduled for further sun-drying tomorrow, I crouched there rummaging through them. Suddenly, I felt a shiver run down my spine. I turned around and saw nothing in the courtyard except the chirping of cicadas outside, almost as if they were about to die.

Has your intuition become more acute lately, leading you to feel suspicious of things

I continued to rummage, and pulled out the carved wooden box.

This is an old dressing box, typically used by a woman when she gets married to store jewelry and cosmetics. Inside, there's more than just a rouge box, but other things as well. However, once you open it, the smell is definitely strong.

I don't know how long old rouge used to last, and what it would become after expiration. I have no idea, but it shouldn't turn this black, like a lump of jelly, right

Dad, really What kind of junk is this He probably collected it when he was younger and forgot why he even kept it.

When the clouds came rolling in on the river at night, he suddenly leaned close to me and sniffed, asking, "What's that scent of rouge"

"What This fellow has such a good nose! I was very careful not to touch that old rouge, and I've even taken a bath, yet he can still smell it"

"While cleaning out the house attic, my dad found a vanity set he had collected many years ago."

"Makeup..." Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes slightly, "Mu Xia Qiao, I don't seem to have ever seen you dress up It seems like the last time I saw you dress up was when you met that little spirit."

"Nonsense! You're not letting me wear high heels! After that, I'll be pregnant, constantly irritable, and always worried about the baby or myself. How could I possibly wear high heels and short skirts again!"

Jiang Qiyun smiled and played with my hair: "Now you can dress up, wear whatever clothes and shoes you like, and put on makeup..."

"I'm getting dressed up tomorrow, want to come see" I asked with a smile.

He was slightly taken aback, then recovered: "...A month already"

I nodded. "You're the father, how can you be so careless"

Actually, I didn't expect Jiang Qiyun to come back. He's so busy now, and he can't manifest his physical form in front of others. If there was an empty seat beside me, what if someone who didn't know any better came over and sat down

And most of them are insiders, and they might even think I'm raising little demons.

Jiang Qiyun watched me open the closet looking for clothes. Luckily, the little dress I wore for the opening ceremony fashion show was still wearable. This one-shoulder light blue cocktail dress is my only formal outfit that's presentable.

I tried to get it on, it's okay, okay, I can wear it!

Jiang Qiyun brushed the hair off my back and smiled, "Your chest is tight..."

Nonsense! This is baby food storage now, can you not be so tight

"It's fine as long as we can get in," I looked at Jiang Qiyun, who was leisurely sitting on the window sill, smiling softly at me.

I hope he can come, after all, this is the first time we're celebrating an important day with Yi and Younan.

But I couldn't bring myself to make such a request. The imperial dragon on the blood jade ring had dissipated, and my spirit child was the closest link between us. With the birth of our child, he could no longer manifest in front of others. In front of so many people from my family, if I stood empty-handed by his side or stared blankly at the air, it would be too easy to expose his existence.

The next day, our family arrived at the banquet hall very early. Since we were bored, my brother took me and Lin Yanqin to a revolving restaurant for tea and snacks. It was supposed to be a way to pass the time, but we ran into my brother's old acquaintance there.

I stared coldly at the woman in front of me, dressed in a strapless frilly dress. My heart was filled with resentment as I mentally sharpened my claws, plotting how to deal with my brother later.eading to the walls and ceiling.In the center of the formation, a hazy mist appeared. She bent down and pasted talismans on the eight directions of the formation to stabilize the mist. The mist gradua...
