Something's Wrong With My Wife

Chapter 26: The Second Young Miss

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As Qin Chuan's punches became faster and heavier, the wind produced became louder and louder.

It was as if thunder was approaching from afar.

Luo Qingzhou stood at the side and watched attentively.

He memorized every move, regardless if it was fast or slow.

The Thunder Fist was much more complex than the Countenance Cloud Fist from before. The moves were also more complicated. Moreover, it required that the strength exerted change from light to heavy, and the speed change from slow to fast.

After demonstrating the entire set of movements for Luo Qingzhou several times, even Qin Chuan was panting slightly.

"Qingzhou, watch carefully. I'll demonstrate one more time."

Qin Chuan did not rest. After he finished one set, he immediately started another set.

Luo Qingzhou did not speak. He continued to watch attentively from another direction, memorizing all the moves carefully.

"One more time!"

Qin Chuan seemed to be in high spirits.

After the second round, his forehead was covered with perspiration, but he was even more energetic and vigorous.

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Puffs of wind swirled about him, tugging at his clothes. The sound of his fists punching out was shocking.

Luo Qingzhou could clearly feel a wave of heat assaulting his face. He hurriedly took a few steps back, his gaze never leaving Qin Chuan, noticing every subtle movement.

After the third round.

Qin Chuan's breathing was a little heavy, and his face turned red. Panting, he smiled and said, "I haven't practiced this Thunder Fist for a long time. It's quite satisfying to do this today."

After saying that, he suddenly punched a willow tree beside him.

Bam!

There was a dull thud.

The thick willow tree was shaking.

Upon punching at it, the rough and hard bark instantly became as soft as cotton. At the same time, the wood inside the bark sunk inward and cracked.

The strength of this casual punch was so shocking!

Qin Chuan retracted his fist and smiled. "Earlier, I held back when I was punching. I didn't use all my power. I feel much better now that I've fully utilized my strength."

Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said with heartfelt admiration, "Second Brother, what good fist technique you have."

It turned out that Qin Chuan had been accumulating power in his Thunder Fist and had not released it. He had only used an ordinary move and had not unleashed its true power.

Probably, Qin Chuan saw that he was weak, so he was afraid of accidentally hurting Luo Qingzhou or scaring him.

From the looks of it, the Thunder Fist was not that bad.

At least after learning it, it still had some power.

For a beginner like Luo Qingzhou, who had no resources or mentors, it was perfect.

"Come, Qingzhou, try it once. If you still don't know, I'll teach you again. You should memorize the moves first. There's no need for you to put strength into your punches. Otherwise, it'll be very tiring for you."

Qin Chuan wiped his fists and prepared to guide Luo Qingzhou from the side.

Luo Qingzhou assumed the starting position and took a deep breath. Following that, he began to get into position and started to slowly punch according to how Qin Chuan had taught him.

After a few punches, a feeble but pleasant voice came from behind. "Second Brother, why are you bullying Brother-in-law?"

Qin Chuan, who was at the side, instantly laughed out loud. "Weimo, you can't malign me. I'm teaching Qingzhou boxing. How is that bullying him?"

Luo Qingzhou hurriedly retracted his fist and turned around.

At the arched door, a delicate figure slowly walked over with the help of a maidservant.

She looked very similar to Qin Jianjia. Although she was not as beautiful as Qin Jianjia, she was still a stunner.

However, her face was rather pale and her body looked extremely weak. It was as if she could be blown away by a strong gust of wind.

At this moment, there was a gentle smile on her face as she said softly, "Brother-in-law is a scholar. He can study, but he doesn't know anything about boxing. You're bullying him if you want to teach him boxing."

Then, she smiled reservedly at Luo Qingzhou, lowered her head slightly, and called out gently, "Brother-in-law."

Luo Qingzhou hurriedly returned the greeting. He cupped his hands and lowered his head, not daring to look at her. "Second Young Miss."

Qin Chuan, who was at the side, was all smiles. He did not argue with her anymore.

Qin Weimo lightly chuckled. "Brother-in-law, you can just call me Weimo."

Then, she lowered her body and said gently, "I was supposed to offer my congratulations to you and Elder Sister during your wedding ceremony. Unfortunately, I wasn't feeling well, so I was unable to attend your wedding. I hope that you won't blame me for that."

Luo Qingzhou hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Second Young Miss, you're too polite."

Although this girl spoke politely, he did not dare to casually call her by her name.

He had married into the Qin family, so his status was low to begin with. He ought to be satisfied if others treated him well. He should not get carried away and break the rules.

In this era, not everyone could call a girl by her first name.

Moreover, it was the first time he and Qin Weimo had met, so they were not on close terms yet.

Qin Weimo smiled and looked at him a few times. She did not force Luo Qingzhou to listen to her, but praised him instead, "When I was in my room, I always heard a few maidservants say that you're a good-looking man. Originally, I thought that those maidservants had not seen many men before, so they were merely casually saying this. However, now that I've met you, I realize that they were right. You're indeed a very attractive man."

Luo Qingzhou could not help but blush when such a beautiful girl was praising him. He could only cup his hands in return and say, "I also heard from Qiu'er and the others that Second Young Miss is extremely beautiful. Seeing you today, you do look like a person who had walked out of a painting, so beautiful that you're like a divine being."

Qin Weimo covered her mouth and smiled. Her beautiful eyes arched like crescent moons when she smiled. "I can praise Brother-in-law, but you can't praise me like so. It'll be bad if Elder Sister finds out about this. Moreover, compared to Elder Sister, I'm merely a firefly compared to the bright moon. I can't be compared to her."

At the side, Qin Chuan could not help but smile when he saw the two of them praising each other. "All right, that's enough. We're one family. There's no need to be so polite and restrained with one another. Also, there's no need for you two to praise each other. Just behave like how you normally do. Qingzhou, it's not easy for Weimo to come out. Let's stop practicing today. If you don't remember or don't understand anything, you can look for me at any time. You can also get the maidservant to look for me. Now, I have to accompany Weimo to go on the boat and go to the lake to pick some lotus seeds. Weimo loves to eat those lotus seeds the most."

Luo Qingzhou made a sound of acknowledgment and prepared to leave.

Qin Weimo immediately asked, "Brother-in-law, why don't we go together? It's time for lunch. After we pick the lotus seeds, we can go to Moon Gazing Pavilion for a meal."

As soon as these words were spoken, the maidservants and even Qin Chuan looked at her in surprise.

This was the first time she had taken the initiative to invite someone of the opposite sex to Moon Gazing Pavilion.

Even Qin Chuan, her Second Brother, had only accompanied her to row the boat and pick lotuses. He had never been invited to the pavilion, let alone eaten with her.

Was she moved because of the literary talent that this young man had shown during the night of the wedding? Or did she pity him because of his pitiful background?

Ever since she was young, Qin Weimo had been a delicate and kind girl. She could not bear to see pitiful people, nor could she bear to hear anything pitiful.

Everyone turned to look at the young man.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and lowered his head. He rejected politely, "Thank you for your invitation, Second Young Miss. However, I'm dizzy from the boat ride. I've been afraid of water since I was young, and I have to go back to study, so I won't be going. You and Second Brother can go."

He remembered the move set for the Thunder Fist, and his hands itched to start practicing it. All he wanted to do now was to go back and practice it a few times. He did not want to waste his time drifting about in the water.

When the maidservants saw that he had rejected the Second Young Miss's invitation, they were not only surprised but also angry.

Qin Chuan frowned slightly, seeming like he wanted to persuade Luo Qingzhou to change his mind.

However, Qin Weimo did not force him or get angry. She smiled gently and said, "I forgot that you still have to prepare for next year's autumn examination, so you can't slack off. It's fine. Second Brother will accompany me. Brother-in-law, you should go back quickly."

Luo Qingzhou did not say anything else. He cupped his hands and bade farewell to the siblings before leaving quickly.

"This guy only knows how to hide in his room and study all day long. It's not easy for you to come out, and you even took the initiative to invite him, but he actually dare reject you. As expected, he's a pedantic and inflexible scholar."

Qin Chuan looked at Luo Qingzhou leaving. He could not help but shake his head helplessly.

Qin Weimo smiled and did not say anything else. She said softly, "Second Brother, let's go to the boat."

"All right, I'll go down first. You take your time."

Qin Chuan agreed and immediately walked toward the small boat by the lake.

Luo Qingzhou had just returned to the small courtyard when he suddenly saw Bai Ling sitting in front of a stone table in the courtyard. She was holding a bouquet of picked flowers and had her legs crossed. She squinted her eyes and dipped her nose to sniff the flowers. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly. She revealed an intoxicated expression after smelling the scent of the flowers.

Luo Qingzhou froze for a moment. He could not help but look at her mouth.
