Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers-Chapter 302 - : The Persistent Lover!
Chapter 302: Chapter 302: The Persistent Lover!
That night, during the hours of 9-11 PM, darkness had fully enveloped the Capital City.
Most people had already gone to rest, with only a few streets still lit up.
At the third floor of an inn in the eastern part of the city, Zhao Xiyan and Qi Yue had each finished preparing and came out of their rooms.
Upon seeing Qi Yue in a woman’s attire, Zhao Xiyan smiled.
“What? Don’t like dressing as a man anymore?”
“No,” Qi Yue shook her head, intending to tell him about her encounter with the leader of the nefarious Feiying Pavilion during the day, but she swallowed her words.
...
If she did tell him, wouldn’t Zhao Xiyan know she had been treated rudely without getting her revenge?
With his single-minded temper, he would certainly scour the entire Capital City for Fatou and tear him to pieces.
Wouldn’t that delay more important matters?
“I just think you were right, dressing as a man is inevitably a flaw that can give me away. Dressed like I am now, nobody knows I am Miss Qi Yue.”
After all, the former Miss Qi Yue was a huge, two-hundred-pound ugly woman.
Who could associate her current slender and charming appearance with Miss Qi Yue?
Zhao Xiyan walked over with a smile, gently hugged her shoulder, “I like you this way.”
Qi Yue tiptoed in response, leaning in to give him a kiss on the cheek.
“Then I’ll always wear women’s clothes from now on.”
“Mmm.”
Their eyes met, and they couldn’t resist being affectionate for a while longer. Only when the noise outside seemed to quiet down bit by bit did they finally remember what they had to do that night.
“All right, it’s time to go,” Qi Yue said, leaning into Zhao Xiyan’s embrace, stating the need to leave, yet not getting up.
Zhao Xiyan looked down at her with a smile, the corners of his lips slowly curling up.

“Okay, do you want me to carry you?”
Qi Yue quickly looked up from his arms and chided him.
“No need for that, don’t delay tonight’s important task.”
“Alright, I’ll carry you back then.”
Zhao Xiyan said, reaching for her hand, and wrapped his arm around her, carrying her nimbly over the inn’s railing, heading in the direction of the Imperial Palace.
Before long, they arrived at a tall tower within the Imperial Palace.
This tower, built by the current Emperor of Beiyuan, Jin Jian, upon his accession, had been standing for decades, offering a view overlooking the entire Imperial Palace from the top.
The late autumn night was somewhat cold, and standing atop the high tower made the chill even more profound.
But Qi Yue wasn’t cold at all, rather her heart was ablaze with excitement; she was planning to loot the Imperial Palace tonight, and just the thought filled her with anticipation!
“Yueyue, where would you like to visit first?”
“Let me take a look first.” Qi Yue was using a night-vision telescope to observe the various palace buildings.
“Zhao Xiyan, it seems like the Emperor’s consorts haven’t gone to bed yet! Or do they sleep with the lights on?”
“Mmm, there are rules in the palace.”
“What a waste, how much oil must be used for the lamps in a year? It would be better to place a Luminous Pearl in each palace hall!”
Zhao Xiyan quietly listened to her talk, simply smiling.
“With the country’s power in decline, in a few more days, I am afraid our Emperor won’t even be able to light up the oil lamps.”
“Is it that exaggerated? Then haven’t we come here for nothing?”
“Not really, Yueyue once said, ‘a dying camel is bigger than a horse.’ He’s still the ruler of a nation, after all.”
“You have a point.” Qi Yue nodded, her telescope pausing on a plaque.
“Qinzheng Hall? Isn’t that the dog Emperor’s workplace?”
“Mmm.”
“The Jade Seal should be there, right? I want to take it and play with it.” As Qi Yue surveyed the terrain and patrolling soldiers around Qinzheng Hall, she casually asked.
“Okay, if Yueyue likes it, take it.”
“Thanks, my Marquis, you’re so considerate.” Qi Yue happily rubbed his face, continuing to observe the other palace structures.
Zhao Xiyan’s gaze drifted over Qi Yue, his hand reaching out then pulling back.
This little fool, always teasing people and then acting as if nothing happened.
How can her heart be so big.
“Yueyue…”
“Hm? Are you cold? Do you want me to get you a cloak.” Qi Yue was busy observing the path to be cleared and casually said, pulling a cloak out of the space.
Zhao Xiyan took it, draped it over her, and took the opportunity to hug her from behind.
Qi Yue knew he wasn’t cold, so she let it be, allowing Zhao Xiyan to clasp her waist while breathing warmth onto the back of her neck.
“Yueyue…”
“Can’t wait anymore, huh? Quickly make a choice,” Qi Yue said while admiring the palace scenery through her telescope and murmuring.
“This damn Emperor really knows how to enjoy himself. Look at these palaces, each built more luxuriously than the last. I really want to move them all out root and stem, but I’m afraid that’s not possible.”
“Yi yi yi, this Qiankun Palace must be where the Emperor and Empress live, right? It’s so huge. After we leave Qinzheng Hall, let’s make a beeline for this place, then after that we go to… Xiuhua Hall, this place definitely looks like a favored concubine’s residence, with such a large courtyard… Wow, there are eighteen big bowls just for planting lotuses, I like this one, I’ll take them all later and use them to hold fruits for Xiaobai to eat, he’ll be delighted…”
“…The damn Emperor is really licentious, all these layers of palaces are occupied, must be dozens of women, right? If he sleeps with one per night, he won’t get through them in a month. Could it be he sleeps with two in one night?”
“…This must be another favored concubine. Look at the palace lanterns in this courtyard, the gems and pearls on them are so big… The things inside must be indispensable, Zixia Hall, is it? Got it…”
Suddenly, Qi Yue thought of someone and put down the telescope and turned to ask.
“Xiyan, do you know which palace Lin Concubine is in?”
As she opened her mouth, her lips just happened to meet those of Zhao Xiyan, who was holding her from behind.
The corners of their lips brushed against each other, and both felt a shiver like an electric current.
Zhao Xiyan would never miss such a good opportunity, he parted his lips and caught Qi Yue’s.
Qi Yue had been talking for a while and her mouth was a bit dry, so this was just fine.
The two of them stood at the windy spot, passionately kissing for a while until they had their fill, and then let go of each other.
“My Yueyue, you truly are a seductress.”
Zhao Xiyan squinted, licking the corner of his lips with a satisfied look.
Qi Yue gave a sly smile.
“Do you think I have the aura of a favored concubine?”
Zhao Xiyan: “…”
Why did he feel there was a hidden meaning in those words?
Indeed, Qi Yue pointed at the entire Imperial Palace and said with a smiling face, “Speaking of which, if you one day seize the world, how many palaces do you plan to build, and how many women do you intend to marry?”
Zhao Xiyan stepped forward to take her hand, seriously saying, “Yueyue, the person I want to marry is you, there aren’t any others. It was you in the past, it is you now, and it will be you in the future.”
The words were sweet, and the emotions were heartfelt.
Qi Yue could feel Zhao Xiyan’s sincerity at this moment.
But…
She turned to glance at the vast Imperial Palace and couldn’t help but feel a sense of unrest.
After all, she still couldn’t fully trust that Zhao Xiyan would remain faithful for a lifetime.
That’s too difficult for any man, let alone one who may one day possess the entire world.
On that day, with countless women at his disposal, how could he not be tempted?
Moreover, he didn’t seem like a loyal person!
The woman who previously wore his White Jade Hairpin, that Ruyan, must have been Zhao Xiyan’s first love. He was willing to let her go just like that.
Now, he was sweetly pledging undying love to her.
Qi Yue felt a sting in her heart, unable to fully grasp the feeling.
But when she thought about all Zhao Xiyan had done to save her, she quickly got over it.
Who asked her to love this man?
She loved him so much that she even let go of the fact that there was another woman in his heart, so let’s just go on like this!
Who can tell what will happen in the future!
“Okay, I’ve got it, let’s go down now, it’s time to take action….”
