Chapter 571: Chapter 571: The Determination of Two Women_1
After Qin Wenjun spoke to Li Qing about that matter, she hid in the small convenience store, moving a pile of drinks from the ground up and down, up and down—she was aimlessly busy as a way to dispel the anxiety and unrest in her heart.
Although she liked to be straightforward and decisive in her actions, she was, after all, an unmarried woman who had not yet experienced the world.
Standing in front of Li Qing and discussing how often to do that sort of thing each week was utterly embarrassing for her.
At that time, she had spoken very directly and with force.
But heaven knows how terribly nervous she was at that moment—her little heart nearly leaped out of her throat.
But what made Qin Wenjun even more anxious now was that the thing she proactively broached despite losing face and putting aside her pride might very likely be rejected by Han Mei. If that were indeed the outcome, she really wouldn’t know how to face it.
Footsteps sounded outside, and Qin Wenjun stood up quickly like a startled deer, raising her head to look over.
The person who walked in was Han Mei.
"Mei, how did it go with the discussion...? I definitely wouldn’t lie to you, it’s exactly what he told me firsthand," Qin Wenjun said, unavoidably nervous, her hands not knowing where to place themselves, rubbing together then moving behind her back.
For a moment, Han Mei didn’t know how to respond to Qin Wenjun.
If she agreed, it would be utterly ridiculous.
But if she refused, being a woman herself, she was very clear about how much such an answer would wound Qin Wenjun’s pride.
Especially since she was such a woman with strong self-esteem.
After hesitating quite a bit between these two difficult choices, Han Mei finally made up her mind and said to Qin Wenjun, "Wenjun, Qingzi told me he thought I had agreed, and that’s why he agreed. But this matter... it’s just too absurd, I really can’t accept it."
"Wenjun, I think you should now find a suitable marriage partner and suppress those inner thoughts of yours!"
"In a small place like ours, a woman absolutely cannot end up with another woman."
Qin Wenjun’s face turned instantly pale.
She hadn’t expected that the final outcome would be the worst possible one.
Her hands were clenched tightly together, and her white teeth bit down hard on her flushed lower lip.
"This son of a bitch, he really knows how to shirk responsibility," Qin Wenjun said with slight resentment in her eyes, "He did that to me... to just think it would all go away, it’s too much!"
Han Mei’s eyes suddenly widened; she asked with immense surprise, "Qingzi did that to you... Are you referring to what I think you are? That you two did it?"
Qin Wenjun lifted her chin and hummed softly, nodding.
"If it weren’t for that, I certainly wouldn’t have brought up such terms. The one I really like is a woman."
Han Mei felt as though her whole person was not okay in an instant, her head spinning fiercely.
Qingzi had actually done that to Qin Wenjun...
"How could you and Qingzi... Ah, you should have told me about this earlier!" Han Mei exclaimed.
Qin Wenjun had a glum face, saying with dissatisfaction, "It’s a long story, but I was forced into it."
Even after Li Qing had gone in, she hadn’t overreacted.
But that didn’t mean she didn’t care about what happened.
After all, she was still a virgin; the fact that he had entered made all the difference.
Moreover, before he entered, he had used his hand for quite a while.
Her chastity had long been destroyed.
Even if there were reasons for what happened, he must take responsibility.
"Forced?!" Han Mei’s eyebrows shot up instantly, "He even dares to do that? He must be crazy, I’ll find him!"
"Mei, wait a minute!" Qin Wenjun suddenly grabbed Han Mei.
"With this premise, would you... agree to my earlier proposal?"
Han Mei instantly felt as if she was being grilled over a fire, completely lost in turmoil.
She didn’t even know what to say or think anymore.
"Wenjun, there are some things you might not know, actually..." Han Mei said, her face a tangle of conflict as she bit her lip.
This matter was too difficult for her.
She simply couldn’t bring herself to talk about her and Li Qing’s affair.
But if she didn’t talk about it, there was no way to continue with Qin Wenjun...
"Actually, what happened?" Qin Wenjun asked, looking at Han Mei with rising anxiety.
"Actually... actually..." After a long hesitation and a troubled expression, Han Mei slowly started to say, "Qingzi and I also..."
"Also... also what?" Qin Wenjun’s eyes suddenly widened as she asked, "Do you mean you two also slept together?"
Han Mei’s cheeks were suffused with deep embarrassment and unease as she gently nodded her head.
"He’s simply an animal, he didn’t even spare his sister-in-law," Qin Wenjun nearly ground her teeth to dust.
No wonder Han Mei had been so rejecting of her, she had now found the real reason.
At the root of everything lay this very issue!
Otherwise, although Han Mei had agreed the first time, why did she become so resistant afterward?
"Technically, there’s nothing wrong with you two being together. After all, the sister-in-law is a widow, and the brother-in-law is unmarried, it’s quite normal. But the number of boats he has his feet in is just too much, isn’t it? That’s excessive!" Qin Wenjun said indignantly, "Mei, how could you agree to this?"
Han Mei gave a bitter laugh of helplessness.
Initially, she did indeed resist.
But now... she felt it was pretty good, Li Qing was very understanding and caring.
Their days together were changing little by little, and it seemed there was nothing she couldn’t accept.
However, what Qin Wenjun didn’t know was that the boats under Li Qing’s feet weren’t limited to the few she was aware of.
"Do you still think that way now?" Han Mei asked.
This metaphorical ball of tangled thoughts seemed to have rolled back to Qin Wenjun’s feet.
"You two being like that... it’s just too much. In my mind, if I’m with him, and you’re with me, isn’t that all harmonious? But you two..." Qin Wenjun said with a troubled face, "If I agree now, wouldn’t it be two women serving one husband?"
Han Mei nodded.
In her heart, she silently added a phrase, and you still have a few more ’sisters’.
"Fine, I’ll endure!" Qin Wenjun said through gritted teeth, "That’s how it’ll be then, her and me, and you too, that should be alright, right?"
"Since he has already done that to me, he must take some responsibility, I guess I can reluctantly accept it."
Han Mei chuckled softly, and the heavy stone in her heart suddenly vanished.
"I can accept it like this. After all, you two have already been like that, right? There’s nothing I can’t accept," she said.
That poke from Li Qing to Qin Wenjun became the final catalyst for the two women to make up their minds.
