The Curse of Desire

Chapter 3: Best Friend's Brother (3)

Are you cooking or not? Bai Qiuyi pulled his hand over and put it on her lower abdomen, Im hungry.

Zhang Tianliangs breathing became rough, Okay, Ill cook.

She was different today. Although she used to speak softly, she was always serious. It was the first time Zhang Tianliang had heard that tone just now.

She was acting like a baby.

Very coquettish.

And she took his hand and pressed it to his lower abdomen.

She had never done this before.

Being held by him and hugged, she could blush for a long time.

She also sat cross-legged.

She had never done such unladylike behaviour before.

All the changes in Bai Qiuyi were not big things, after Zhang Tianliang thought about it, it was time to cook.

After the meal, the couple watched TV to pass the time as usual.

Before nine oclock, Bai Qiuyi was a little sleepy.

In the last world 1, she lived in ancient times. Because there were few entertainment facilities, she went to bed early every day and got up early.

Im going to take a shower. Bai Qiuyi covered her mouth and yawned.

Well, go. Zhang Tianliang waited for her to enter the bedroom and then took out the mobile phone from his trouser pocket.

The phone vibrated several times just now, but because Bai Qiuyi was beside him, he was worried and didnt check on it.

Clicking on the WeChat app, there were several unread messages in the dialogue box belonging to Ji Yan.

Is Qiuyi in a better mood?

Now that I think about it, I really feel sorry for her.

because of my desire to monopolize you, she has been wronged (Crying).

But giving you to her I cant bear it (Grievance).

After reading the text, Zhang Tianliang felt a little complicated.

He actually had feelings for both Ji Yan and Bai Qiuyi.

Back then, because of his many affairs with Ji Yan, he felt sorry for Bai Qiuyi, so even though he liked her, he began to think about breaking up with her.

It was Ji Yan who persuaded him, saying that they couldnt divorce because Bai Qiuyi will definitely not be able to bear it, and may even go suicidal.

Hearing this, Zhang Tianliang hesitated.

Ji Yan also said that she and Bai Qiuyi were good sisters, and she didnt mind serving one husband together 2.

Zhang Tianliang believed it.

As a result, after he and Bai Qiuyi got their marriage certificate, Ji Yan said that she couldnt accept his marriage with Bai Qiuyi.

She felt aggrieved and didnt want him to consummate his marriage.

The young lady who was aloof and arrogant to outsiders, let out tears like raindrops on a pear blossom 3 in front of him, looking very pitiful.

Zhang Tianliangs heart suddenly softened.

Later, when Ji Yan mentioned the Stone Girl 4 plan, Zhang Tianliang hesitated and agreed.

Between Ji Yan and Bai Qiuyi, he always preferred Ji Yan because they already had a skin-to-skin relationship.

Things are already like this, dont think too much.

Once Zhang Tianliang sent a message, the dialog box immediately showed that she was typing.

Thinking that Ji Yan had been waiting for him to reply, his complicated mood eased and his eyes softened.

Then is Qiu Yi in a better mood?

She repeated the question, and Zhang Tianliang suddenly remembered that during this time, Ji Yan had been avoiding him because she felt guilty towards Bai Qiuyi.

It can not go like this, Zhang Tianliang thought, the two sisters shouldnt part ways because of this matter.

Much better, you can chat with her, or ask her out to go shopping.

Chatting? Shopping? Ji Yan curled her lips in disdain.

Theres nothing to talk about. Bai Qiuyi was a plebeian with narrow horizons and no knowledge, all she talked about were money, rice, oil and salt 5, it was extremely boring. When she shopped, she was stingy and liked to bargain. Ji Yan despised her petty bourgeois behavior the most.

Back then, she would be friends with Bai Qiuyi, but it was because Bai Qiuyi was easy to manipulate, and Ji Yan happened to be short of an errand girl, so she lowered herself to be friends with Bai Qiuyi.

Okay, I will ask her out to go shopping tomorrow.

Are you coming tonight?

I want to see you, and I wont take much of your time.

She missed him, but because Qiuyi needed someone to accompany her, she didnt dare to take up too much of his time.

This was translated by Zhang Tianliang after seeing the message.

He thought to himself, apart from not letting him touch Bai Qiuyi, Ji Yan was very understanding.

Ill go there later.

Today Zhang Tianliang was provoked by Bai Qiuyi, so even if Ji Yan didnt look for him, he wouldve taken the initiative to look for her.

After deleting the chat history, Zhang Tianliang got up and went into the bedroom.

Bai Qiuyi was blowing her hair.

She was sitting on a stool with her head hanging down, and the wind speed was at its maximum, filling the room with whirring sounds.

Zhang Tianliang looked at her hair-blowing posture and found it was too casual, not like herself at all.

Still, he didnt think too much about it, probably because of the precedent of her sitting cross-legged early tonight.

After approaching her, Zhang Tianliang took the hair dryer in her hand and helped her, Im going out later, I have something to do in the company.

1. This is the opening arc of the series, but she has been doing missions for a long time already, we just werent shown.
2. In ancient China, polygamy was legal, thus, two or more women of the same family (sisters, aunt and niece, twins, etc) would often serve one husband together, as in doing all a married partner would do: housekeeping, childbearing and intercourse. Often, one may be the principal wife, and others the husbands concubines. In many emperors harem there would often be sisters and nieces serving together the emperor.
3. lhudi y. lit. like raindrops on a pear blossom (idiom) / fig. tear-stained face of a beauty. (Like pear blossoms covered with raindrops. It originally described Yang Guifeis posture when she was crying. Later, it was used to describe the beauty of women.)
4. sh n. Vaginal Atresia is a birth defect in which the vagina is closed or absent. Typically this condition does not occur alone, but is one of several developmental problems in a female baby. (So FL doesnt actually have this condition, its fake).
5. I think its a jab at the original owner being a housewife. Her talk being about money also showed she had little of it, and was always worried about not having more.
