Rebirth of the Great Favor: Chapter 117
Chapter 117: Bestows Marriage Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
Qiqi was still crying with mixed feelings in her heart. Memories of previous and present life flooded in. It only made her feel useless. Shen Zhonghua only said a few words and she was defeated. Shen Zhonghua’s kiss fell on her cheeks, kissing away the two lines of clear tears for her.
The servant girl outside watching the night fell asleep. She woke up as her head tilted. Just then she heard movements in Miss’s room. She thought it was just a rat or something, so she opened the door carefully and went in quietly. She wanted to go in and have a look so as not to disturb Miss’s rest.
“Someone comes in!” Qiqi lowered her voice and pushed the man in front of her away: “Leave quickly!”
One must know that a man broke into a lady’s chamber in the middle of the night, and a lone man and a woman were in the same room, wasn’t that an outrageous secret meeting? Did one want the general house’s reputation to spread?
However, Shen Zhonghua didn’t move. Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Qiqi was a little anxious: “Are you leaving or not?”
Shen Zhonghua wasn’t annoyed and was calm. He held Qiqi’s hands and fixed his eyes on her: “Give me a kiss.”
Qiqi’s eyes widened at him: “Pre-preposterous!”
This wasn’t the word a prince could say solemnly! It was clearly a licentious playboy nobleman!
The sound seemed a little louder by their pulling. Behind the screen came the servant girl’s low inquiring voice: “Miss, are you awake?”
In a panic, Qiqi didn’t know how to reply, but Shen Zhonghua, this lecher, approached her and said in her ear: “Qiqi kisses me and I’ll leave.”
Qiqi’s eyes caught a glimpse of the shadow of the servant girl. Her heart jumped wildly. She closed her eyes and kissed Shen Zhonghua. She thought she could only kiss his face, but she didn’t expect Shen Zhonghua to turn his head timely so she ended up kissing his lips......
At long last......
When the servant girl opened the curtain and looked inside, Shen Zhonghua’s figure flashed and disappeared.
“Miss?” The servant girl saw Qiqi sitting there and her breathing was a bit heavy. She asked with concern: “Is Miss uncomfortable?”
“Nothing.” Qiqi shook her head: “Pour me a cup of water.”

Qiqi no longer felt sleepy after seeing Shen Zhonghua. On the next day, Lan Cui spent a lot of effort covering up her blue spots and asked her: “Did Miss not sleep well last night?”
Qiqi was expressionless and only said: “I was awakened by a rat.”
So on this day, two major events occurred in the general’s residence.
One was that His Majesty bestowed a marriage, and the other was that there was an annoying rat in Miss’s room.
After the imperial edict came, Mother Su and Qiqi stayed together, talking about the intimate words between mother and daughter. Qiqi knew her parents were naturally reluctant to bear her and feared that she would be wronged.
Qiqi nested in her mother’s warm and fragrant arms and said in a small voice: “Mother, I’m not wronged.”
If she threw away the past and married someone like Shen Zhonghua, she really shouldn’t be wronged. But emotionally, Qiqi was very confused. She didn’t know how she felt about Shen Zhonghua now. Was it love or hate? They were intertwined like a big net, trapping her and it was destined to prevent her from escaping.
She was just a little sad, still entangled with that man.
It seemed so useless to live a life again.

In the following days, Cui Yanran, who was already Princess Rong, came to the general’s residence frequently. It was just like before she married, and Qiqi went to their residence to accompany her, but now their identities changed.
After Cui Yanran married Shen Zhongming and became a Wangfei, she was not as weak as before. Shen Zhongming must treat her very well. She looked dignified and beautiful. Her temperament was quite different from before.
Cui Yanran looked much happier than Qiqi, which made Qiqi laugh as if she was about to marry again.
In Cui Yanran’s opinion, Shen Zhonghua was an excellent destination. If Qiqi married, they would be sisters-in-law.
