Chapter 22 The plan of the beauty
It was not that Zhao Zimu didn’t understand. It was that she couldn’t. After being reborn, Zhao Zimu didn’t want to treat Lin Qing simply. Since she had decided, she will give him the best and the most truthful her. So, before it was clear what their relationship was, she wouldn’t do anything to him.
The moment Zhao Zimu thought about those many beauties in Lin Qing’s residence, she would feel a headache. Disregarding the past life, although she felt that Lin Qing liked her in this life, she wasn’t sure to what extent Lin Qing’s liking was and what he would do or give up for her.
Until the end in the past life, the beauties in Lin Qing’s residence didn’t lessen. She didn’t care about it then, but she cared in this life. Since she had decided to love him, then he should belong to her, Zhao Zimu’s. No one else could touch him. If Lin Qing couldn’t do that, she could only keep him safe. Except that, she couldn’t give him more.

Early the next morning, Lin Qing went to attend the morning court. When he left Qiansui’s residence, his pace was faster than usual as if he had something urgent and important to do. However, those subordinates who followed Lin Qing felt that his mood was a bit happy.
Alright, they also felt that it was very weird. How could this Qiansui feel the kind of joy of a normal person? In their hearts, even if Qiansui wanted to smile, it would be like the smile of the king of hell that was gloomy and eerie.
However, after the morning court, the officials looked at Lin Qing as if they wanted to eat his flesh because after Lin Qing went back, His Majesty gave a lot trouble to the people who had submitted the scrolls. Many of them were severely investigated. They bet their lives on that this was definitely related to that old eunuch!
So, it wasn’t wrong to say that Lord Qiansui was temperamental. Today was just stranger and usual than usually.

When Lin Qing returned to the residence, someone came to report that third prince Situ Wenrui came to visit. Lin Qing ordered people to prepare a banquet in the front hall and let several beauties of the residence come to sing and dance.
However, what he didn’t think was that Zhao Zimu have also come. Lin Qing almost shattered the cup in his hand. He had specifically avoided her name when he instructed people.
Unexpectedly, the person who slept with him only last night and who said that she didn’t abhor him would appear here today. Could it be that everything she said yesterday was a lie?! Did she think that as long as Situ Wenrui takes a fancy on her that he would give her away?! Ridiculous!
She should never think of leaving him in this life unless he died!
In fact, Lin Qing had misunderstood Zhao Zimu. Originally, Zhao Zimu was boring and teasing her little maid in her courtyard. However, Li Xianger deliberately came over and said to her that Lin Qing was entertaining the third prince in the residence now and hinted to her that the third prince was handsome, gentle as jade, elegant, that he had literary talent and so on.
In fact, Zhao Zimu truly admired Li Xianger’s cleverness. She had already become a target after only having stayed for one night in Lin Qing’s courtyard. If she had stayed a few nights, would Li Xianger directly hide a few voodoo dolls in her courtyard and then frame her for harboring evil intentions? Why did someone with such a beautiful face have such an evil heart?
Wasn’t it just wanting her to show her face in front of the third prince and while she was at it, cause Lin Qing to be unhappy? By then, no matter what the case was, she would have a bad ending.
In fact, it was no wonder that Li Xianger cared so much because no one who had served Lin Qing would have a good complexion the next day which showed that they had suffered a lot. Moreover, Lin Qing never let them spend the night with him.
However, not only did nothing happen to Zhao Zimu, she also stayed the night there. This had been going round the residence like crazy. Especially, only those beauties knew about the hundred kinds of feelings they were feeling in their hearts.
