My Wife Is A Sword Immortal-Chapter 165 - 146 Its My Jade Too
Chapter 165: Chapter 146: It’s My Jade Too
Chapter 165: Chapter 146: It’s My Jade Too
At this moment.
A clenched fist had already been placed next to Zhao Lingfei’s lowered Jade Hand.
The fist slowly opened.
A white Beautiful Jade covered in warm sweat now lay quietly in the palm.
The purple tassel gently fell, fluttering against the sea breeze, touching that fair Jade Hand, gently caressing it.
The purple tassel made her hand appear even more fair.
The tassel wormed its way through her fingers, weaving back and forth.
It seemed to be helping its owner win back a woman’s sentiments.
At a certain moment.
That Jade Hand, which had been hanging down since the beginning, moved.
Jade Hand grabbed the White Jade Token, clenching it tightly.
Zhao Rong suddenly opened his eyes and exhaled forcefully, hugging her with all his might.
But then.
Just halfway through turning.
Zhao Rong felt the woman in his arms struggling.
He paused, surprised, and stopped.
“What’s the matter, Qing Jun?” he asked.
“Zhao Rong, let me go first,” she replied.
Hearing this address, Zhao Rong felt a sinking in his heart, yet he still set her down.
Zhao Lingfei’s fingers trembled slightly, she gently pushed.
Gradually stepping away from Zhao Rong’s warm embrace.
The sun had already set into the sea, the sky darkening.
Her eyes were visibly red, her nose too.
But her tear-stained face was not visible.
It was uncertain whether her tears were like pear blossoms bathed in rain.
Zhao Lingfei sniffled, raised her hand, and covered her cherry lips and nose with the back of her hand.
In the dim fading light.
She gazed at Zhao Rong, whose backdrop was the boundless sea.
A couple that should be embracing each other were now looking at each other wordlessly.
Zhao Rong looked at her openly, waiting for her to speak.
Fear and dread flickered through Zhao Lingfei’s eyes, as if she had a vivid memory of something that had deeply hurt her, leaving behind a subconscious timidity.
Like a small bird yearning for the sky, yet constantly mindful of the time she had fallen from the nest and broken her wings.
All this was hidden by the dim light, invisible to Zhao Rong.
Zhao Lingfei took a deep breath.
Her eyelids downcast, her voice still carrying a hint of tears, yet she tried to steady it.
“Qian’er went to a trial and will be back after a while. If you want to find her, go to Qinglian Inn on Wutong Street in East City. Uncle Kun and Uncle Bai are there,” she said.
Zhao Lingfei sniffled, coughed lightly, cleared her throat, her voice returning to its cold, melodious tone.
“Don’t come to Taiching Prefecture to bother me anymore,” she said.
Having said that, she glanced up at Zhao Rong, who was still frowning deeply.
Seeing that he was silent and standing still, she moved toward him.
Zhao Lingfei suddenly stepped forward and reached for Zhao Rong’s waist.
With a tug.
The Black Jade Token, which had been close to her body for countless days and nights, tied to her wedding ribbon, was back in her hand.
Zhao Rong was stunned.

Before he could react, Zhao Lingfei had already turned and left.
A figure in white grew more distant in the darkness.
“It is my jade too,” came a serious-toned voice with the wind.
Zhao Rong pursed his lips, watching the figure in white disappear into the darkness.
The night sea breeze blew his blue robes rustling.
All alone.
Zhao Rong remained standing there, not chasing after her.
After a while.
Gui suddenly exclaimed with excitement, “Great, the play is over, you’ve also given up, let’s hurry to Southern Tranquility…”
His words suddenly stopped because he noticed Zhao Rong was smiling.
“Hey, Zhao Rong, have you gone mad? Well, it doesn’t matter; you don’t have Sword Heart anyway…”
Zhao Rong laughed, “Go to Southern Tranquility State my foot, Qing Jun and Xiao Xiao are both here, I’m not going anywhere.”
Gui sighed, “Ah, poor kid, you’ve actually started to become a bootlicker. I wouldn’t have said anything this afternoon if I’d known, you’ve gone from one extreme to another. She’s already rejected you, no amount of bootlicking will help.”
Zhao Rong retorted irritably, “Get lost, bootlicker…huh, actually, you’re right, because Qing Jun is just waiting for me to ‘bootlick’.”
Zhao Rong, thinking about Qing Jun’s recent words, couldn’t help but chuckle, feeling that Qing Jun was somewhat… tsundere.
Gui asked curiously, “How so?”
Zhao Rong thought for a moment.
“It’s simple, Qing Jun has actually forgiven me, well, she might still have some doubts about what I said, but, I believe she has forgiven me in her heart. However, she is afraid, afraid that I might hurt her again, and if she accepted my apology right away and reconciled with me, it would make her seem too… cheap.
Things easily obtained aren’t cherished. If she doesn’t even cherish herself, how could I cherish her? I guess that’s what Qing Jun thinks.”
Gui was stunned, “How do you understand women so well?”
Zhao Rong sighed.
“You’d know if you thought about it carefully.
Ah, it’s not you chasing your lady, you don’t bother with effort. For Qing Jun’s sake, this young master has racked his brains.
Qing Jun has a cold and proud nature, there are some things she would not say but would silently do or hint at.
She just told me where her residence outside Taiching Prefecture is and extra warned me not to bother her at Taiching Prefecture; well, these aren’t very obvious, but in the end, she snatched my Black Jade away and fiercely left a word… kinda cute, though.”
“But, indeed, I was too hasty, forced her to take a stance the first time we met, not giving her time to digest everything. Ah, but I really couldn’t help it, I wanted to clarify everything with her…
But no matter, it just means I have to chase her, right?
If one isn’t willing to make an effort to coax one’s own wife, that’s too scoundrelly. Besides, after coming such a long distance, is it too much to take the final step?”
Gui exclaimed admiringly, “Truly, you’re something, Zhao Rong.”
Zhao Rong rolled up his sleeves and strode away.
Shortly after he left.
Another person approached through the dark.
Tall and graceful with her hair pinned up.
Who else could it be but Zhao Lingfei?
She gazed in the direction Zhao Rong left, slightly tilting her head, her eyes shifting thoughtfully as she recalled the smile on her husband’s face when he had just left.
Zhao Lingfei bit her lower lip lightly, letting out a small huff.
Suddenly feeling somewhat annoyed.
Were her words just now too straightforward, too… easy for him?
Yet, she was afraid he would overthink it…
But thinking of how, as a mortal, he traveled thousands of miles to Du You under the closed mountain conditions, how much thinner he had become, and all the hardships he might have faced on the road.
Her long eyelashes trembled, feeling a slight ache at the tip of her heart.
But then, thinking that he did all this just to return the jade to her.
And he had just spoken way more blatant romantic words than she had ever heard in her dreams…
In the moonlight, Zhao Lingfei’s already pale face under the moon seemed even whiter, slowly blushing.
Her heart felt both shy and joyful.
In the Heart Lake Lotus Pond, the mud had risen significantly, but a gorgeous Qinglian had fully blossomed.
In the pond, two lively little figures were present.
The color-faded childhood friend saved by the green plum was chasing the dazzling green plum, and after a while, he caught up again, engaging in playful antics.
Just like her childhood with Zhao Rong.
A bright moon rose over the sea.
Bathed in the pure silvery moonlight, Zhao Lingfei smiled softly.
Under the moon, the beautiful lady gently lowered her head, her delicate hands carefully piecing together the two parts of the Black and White Jade Token.
Her eyes tender, she gazed fondly.
The two pieces of the token fit perfectly together.
There was a line of poetry on it.
Five characters on the black jade, five on the white.
How to convey thoughts of love?
Beautiful Jade hanging by the silk tassel.
