“This tea is rather delightful!” Qin Zhenzhen exclaimed with genuine enthusiasm.
The tea’s creator, on the other hand, was even more impressive. He possessed both good looks and a gentle demeanor.
Chuckling to herself, Wen Ya acted as a mere facade; her true nature concealed a darker heart.
Just then, a maid from the health center delivered a letter from Wang Yizhi.
“Miss Qin, this is from the plump madam’s husband,” the maid informed.
Before Qin Zhenzhen could reach for it, Su Bin swiftly snatched the letter away.
“How dare you read a letter from such an immoral person?” Su Bin exclaimed.
Qin Zhenzhen watched Su Bin’s childish actions and stifled her laughter.
“There’s no harm in taking a peek. After all, you know I’m immune to poison,” Qin Zhenzhen replied.
Su Bin said, “I’ll read it aloud so that you won’t soil your hands or your eyes.” Qin Zhenzhen couldn’t help but chuckle at Su Bin’s theatrics. “Very well, go ahead.”
With her permission, Su Bin opened the envelope and withdrew the folded paper inside. To his surprise, a banknote worth a hundred taels fell out.
As Su Bin read the letter’s contents, his face flushed with anger.
Puzzled, Qin Zhenzhen asked, “What did the letter say? Why was there a banknote?”
Su Bin hesitated, avoiding her gaze. “Do you really want to know the contents?”
Qin Zhenzhen furrowed her brow, even more intrigued. “I can choose not to read his letter, but you did promise to tell me. You can’t backtrack on your word.”
Su Bin blushed even deeper for some inexplicable reason.
Qin Zhenzhen prodded, “What nonsense did he write? Are you too embarrassed to share it?”
Su Bin composed himself, then reluctantly revealed the letter’s contents to Qin Zhenzhen.
“He mentioned that this money was his personal savings, all he has left. He offered it all to you as a gesture of goodwill, given our past familial ties. He has a unique request for you.”
“He’s asking if, while assisting his wife in her weight loss journey, you could implement a rule limiting their intimate relations to no more than four times a month. He explained that he’s finding it physically taxing, and he’s concerned it might lead to exhaustion.”
“In his closing words, he emphasized the need to keep this matter strictly confidential.’
Qin Zhenzhen was momentarily taken aback before bursting into laughter.
“Is this for real? No wonder he looks that way!”
“No wonder you blushed!” she teased.
In reality, Qin Zhenzhen had already seen through the situation, but she didn’t expect Wang Yizhi to be bold enough to seek her help. He wasn’t afraid of her sharing it with others, even if it meant the villagers would ridicule him.
Su Bin gave her an odd look, considering that she was a woman who had never been intimate with a man. He found it surprising that she wasn’t embarrassed by such a topic.
As a man, he had blushed when reading the letter.
Qin Zhenzhen explained matter-of-factly, “We’re medical students. We’re not easily embarrassed by such matters. Anything more explicit than this is well within our comfort zone.’
Unexpectedly, Su Bin prodded further, “Then, tell me, what would be considered more explicit?”
Qin Zhenzhen tactfully avoided that topic. “Let’s seal the letter and have it returned to him. I’ll instruct the maid to convey that I didn’t read it and that he needn’t be concerned.”
Su Bin nodded, saying, “As you wish.”
However, Qin Zhenzhen later discovered that despite Su Bin’s outward agreement, he had taken a different course of action in private.
He should have hired someone to suggest to the plump lady that increasing her sexual activity could aid in her weight loss.
Engaging in vigorous nightly exercise could have yielded twice the results with half the effort.
However, Wang Yizhi eventually fell seriously ill and came close to losing his life. It was then that the plump lady exposed their relationship scandalously.
These scandals nearly led to Wang Yizhi’s expulsion from the academy.
In a surprising turn of events, the plump lady used a sum of silver to salvage his academic standing.
But these were tales for another time.
For someone like Wang Yizhi, if the heavens didn’t favor him, there would always be those who did..
