?Chapter 67: Chapter 068 Why Are You Still a Novice?_1 Chapter 67: Chapter 068 Why Are You Still a Novice?_1 Niu Qingfang struggled in fright for a moment, but quickly caught on, resulting in a feigned resistance accompanied by a coquettish protest, “Why are you so impatient? If someone didn’t know better, they’d think you were starving.”

Upon hearing “Li Qinghe” flirt with him like that, Qian Yuan’s heart fluttered, “Of course I’m starving. I’ve had my eye on you for a long time, yet you’ve been ignoring me. Tell me, were you deliberately playing hard to get?” As he spoke, his hand pinched Niu Qingfang’s buttocks.

Niu Qingfang playfully slapped Qian Yuan’s chest, “Shame on you! I ignored you and you became a coward, such a big man with so little pluck. You’ve put me in such an awkward situation. If you had taken me as your wife sooner, none of this would have happened, and I would have been yours much earlier!”

At these words, Qian Yuan’s heart melted, and his hands were all over Niu Qingfang, “Well, it’s not too late for me to cherish you now, is it?” he said, and began to frantically tear at Niu Qingfang’s clothes.

But Niu Qingfang stopped him with one hand, and Qian Yuan became desperately impatient, “What’s wrong now? Are you still angry with me?”

Niu Qingfang squeezed her throat, feigning innocence, “If I follow you without any status, what will happen in the future? You think of me in a moment of passion now, but if by tomorrow morning your excitement fades and you toss me aside, what will I do then?”

“Heh, it’s just a title you want, I’ll give it to you. I can’t bear the thought of you with another man. I’ve been starving for you so long; one time is hardly enough,” Qian Yuan said, his impatience and desire already kindled.

Niu Qingfang countered, “Empty words aren’t proof. We need a written agreement.”

Desperate, Qian Yuan exclaimed, “My little lady, where am I supposed to find pen and ink now? If you don’t give in, I’ll burn with desire. How about this, I swear if I don’t give you a title, may thunder strike me down.”

Niu Qingfang, hearing this, believed him. In ancient times, swearing carried great weight, especially such curses; once sworn, one dare not disobey. With this, she consented to Qian Yuan, and the two, like dry tinder meeting a flame, immediately came together.

“Chengzi, how could you be so careless? We stayed here last night and you left the game behind. That pheasant could sell for thirty or forty coins; who knows if someone picked it up. If we can’t find it now, you can just regret it,” Wang Qiang said as he walked briskly.

“Hmm, it shouldn’t be lost, right? There aren’t many people here,” Li Cheng said, lacking confidence. He wasn’t actually here to look for a pheasant; he just wanted to help Muniang catch a cheater. As an honest and loyal man, committing such a mean act was new to him, and he would never have done it if it weren’t for Muniang’s two silver pieces.

Wang Qiang slapped Li Cheng on the shoulder, “Hey, why aren’t you in a hurry? What are you thinking about, walking in such a daze?”

Wang Qiang’s voice was a bit loud, and Niu Qingfang, who was intwined with Qian Yuan in the thatched cottage, caught the noise with her sharp ears and quickly pushed on the Qian Yuan above her, “It sounds like someone’s coming.”

Qian Yuan, now too consumed by his urges, could not be bothered with such distractions. With an arrow already on the string, he could hardly retreat in such a critical moment, and dismissed her concerns, “There’s no one, who wanders around the mountains late at night like this? Don’t be paranoid.”

As he spoke, he thrust forcefully into Niu Qingfang’s body, causing her to cry out in a mix of pain and ecstasy.

But Qian Yuan suddenly froze, “You, you, you’re still untouched?”

Niu Qingfang hadn’t grasped the meaning of Qian Yuan’s words yet; how could she not be untouched as a virgin maiden?!

But she no longer had time for doubt, as with a “bang,” the door of the thatched hut was violently smashed open, and Wang Qiang bellowed, “Who’s in there?”

They had just reached the outside of the thatched hut when they heard Niu Qingfang’s cry. Fearing something might have happened, Wang Qiang didn’t hesitate and charged in. The moonlight spilled through the open door, lighting up the intertwined, bare bodies. Li Cheng’s face was so red it was nearly bleeding, and Wang Qiang stood dumbfounded like a fool.

After a moment of silence, Niu Qingfang suddenly cried out “ah” and quickly pulled away from Qian Yuan’s body, snatching up some clothes to cover herself and retreated to the corner.

Wang Qiang quickly came to his senses and took out a fire starter to light a fire. It was only then he clearly saw the person in the hut was Niu Qingfang!

“You shameless pair of dogs, secretly fooling around! Niu Qingfang, you’ve got some nerve!” Wang Qiang roared.

This shout startled Qian Yuan, who, by the light of Wang Qiang’s fire starter, saw Niu Qingfang’s face and exclaimed, “It’s you? Where’s Li Qinghe?!”

Li Cheng charged forward and punched Qian Yuan in the face, “You’re asking for it! How dare you speak ill of my sister! My sister is a decent, chaste woman; don’t you dare slander her!”

Wang Qiang cut in, “Chengzi, there’s no use talking to this pair of dogs. Let’s report this straight to the Village Head.”

Saying this and glancing at Niu Qingfang, he spat out, “I actually thought she was a decent woman, turns out she’s nothing but a whore! Poor Er Liang got ruined by her, and we’ve all been deceived!”

However, Niu Qingfang suddenly grabbed Wang Qiang’s hem, crying and pleading desperately, “Qiangzi, please don’t tell the Village Head, please. I’ll die!”

Wang Qiang shook her off and said to Li Cheng, “Chengzi, let’s tie up this pair of dogs and take them to the Village Head! We must clear Er Liang’s name!”

Li Cheng grabbed Qian Yuan and bound him with rope. Qian Yuan, who was previously shocked that the person beneath him was not Li Qinghe, now reacted when Li Cheng began to tie him up and started to resist. But his strength was no match for the robust hunter Li Cheng, who quickly subdued him.

“We’ll talk at the Village Head’s place!” Li Cheng said menacingly.

What was usually a quiet night was exceptionally lively. The Village Head, dressed in his clothes, stood in the yard with villagers holding torches for light. In the middle, the disheveled couple kneeled. As soon as the households heard about this scandal, they didn’t even sleep, running over to watch the excitement.

With a stern face, the Village Head said in a somber tone, “You two have behaved indecently without formal engagement. Do you recognize your offense?”

Niu Qingfang was merely sobbing beside them, but Qian Yuan stood up and shouted, “I’m not from your village. It’s none of your damn business what I do. Release me now!”

These words immediately provoked a wave of murmurs from the crowd. The Village Head felt disgraced but also didn’t dare offend too deeply, since angering the Qian Family would do no good, so he swallowed his anger.

Then Nanny Zhang, tremblingly squeezing through the crowd, wailed, “Oh, my poor girl, what’s happened to you? Whoever the bastard is that bullied you, your mother will seek justice for you!”
