My Wife Is The Final Boss

Chapter 1181 - 649: Li Zhibai Doesn’t Get Jealous (Double-Length, Part 2)

So, is the world wrong?

Thinking of this, Xu Chang’an couldn’t help but laugh.

This statement is indeed a bit amusing. Fortunately, she held back from saying it out loud, otherwise, she wondered how the teacher would view him.

Xu Chang’an has no idea that if he really said this, and if Li Zhibai and Zhu Pingniang heard it, it would make them think more deeply.

The world is wrong?

Wouldn’t that mean Xu Chang’an is subconsciously dissatisfied with the world?

Yet he truly has the ability to change the world.

"By the way... did you say Miss Yun likes Ah Qing?" Li Zhibai asked in surprise.

"Yes." Xu Chang’an nodded.

If it weren’t so, even without Li Zhibai’s reminder, even if Yun Qian weren’t jealous, he would have distanced himself from Ah Qing.

But since Yun Qian likes him... that’s a different matter.

"..." Li Zhibai thought carefully for a while and still asked puzzledly, "Chang’an, is it that I don’t understand Miss Yun well enough?"

She really couldn’t comprehend that Yun Qian, that Miss Yun, would have someone she likes and wants to be close to, so she could only wonder if she doesn’t understand Yun Qian.

"Teacher, it’s not your issue." Xu Chang’an said helplessly, "Even I haven’t been able to fully accept it."

God knows when Yun Qian told him she liked Ah Qing, he suspected he was dreaming several times.

"..."

Li Zhibai fell silent.

As someone with a balanced nature, she wouldn’t get jealous like Zhu Pingniang, but... she did have an indescribable feeling in her heart.

Is Miss Aqing really that special?

The sect leader on high views her differently, and Yun Qian, who seemed emotionless, also said she liked and wanted to be close to her...

It’s incomprehensible.

"How did Ah Qing and Miss Yun... come to know each other?" Li Zhibai couldn’t help but ask.

"They haven’t known each other for long." Xu Chang’an briefly recounted the incident of meeting Ah Qing while riding a carriage and Ah Qing helping Yun Qian to the kitchen.

"That’s it?"

"That’s it." Xu Chang’an nodded. "Miss might have chatted with her about something on the way to the kitchen, but I didn’t ask."

Li Zhibai: "..."

Hmm.

She really couldn’t understand.

Just did some maid’s work, walked with Yun Qian for a while, and Yun Qian would have a good impression of Ah Qing, like her?

Li Zhibai didn’t think so.

In her view, Yun Qian’s affection is not something so cheap, acquiring Yun Qian’s liking is not simple, and yet, even Tong Jun, who has cared for Yun Qian for a long time, didn’t receive such treatment...

What kind of charm does that Miss Aqing have...

"Hmm?"

Thinking of this, Li Zhibai’s tone suddenly paused, as if she had suddenly understood something.

Just now...

Did she feel that Ah Qing being obsessed with Xu Chang’an despite being rejected showed good judgment?

Then the question arises, if even she thought this way, would Miss Yun, who values Chang’an much more than herself, also think this way?

Could it be that Yun Qian only has a good impression of Ah Qing because Ah Qing likes Xu Chang’an?

Very possible.

Very possible!

After all, in Li Zhibai’s mind, among the girls surrounding them, only Ah Qing’s affection for Xu Chang’an is the most obvious—though, yes, she doesn’t go out often and hasn’t seen the shameless Ni Zi from Muyu Peak clinging to her student, smearing rouge on him.

Thinking of this, Li Zhibai didn’t speak immediately, instead she started walking towards the banquet table, and as she walked, she suddenly called out:

"Chang’an."

"Hmm?"

"You said... Among Miss Yun’s affection for Ah Qing, how much is because Ah Qing likes you?"

Xu Chang’an’s steps paused, he looked down at Li Zhibai’s swaying skirt in front, smiled wryly: "Teacher, this thing... hearing it’s even harder to swallow than the bitterest tea. Student just has this tiny hope, do you also want to shatter it..."

"Not dreaming in daylight is a good thing." Li Zhibai grinned.

She understands Xu Chang’an too well.

Xu Chang’an hopes Yun Qian can shed his influence, sincerely get to know a friend, have a best friend and closest companion.

But she sharply pointed out that fundamentally, Yun Qian likes Ah Qing because of him.

So she personally shattered the student’s ’dream’, turning what was originally sweet juice into the most detestable bitter tea.

"But don’t lose heart... Miss Yun is changing, maybe someday, she will truly have her own will... but not now." Li Zhibai said.

"Then I will take your good words." Xu Chang’an said, paused, and asked: "Teacher, you really like Miss."

"Mm...?" Li Zhibai looked back at Xu Chang’an in confusion: "And then?"

"...Mm."

But Xu Chang’an followed with an "Mm", then directly stopped talking.

"...??"

Li Zhibai was about to pursue the matter but suddenly froze, as she realized with a dark expression.

Li Zhibai’s immediate reaction was that Xu Chang’an was asking, in conjunction with the previous topic, whether her affection for Yun Qian was, in part, because of him.

But Li Zhibai thought Chang’an is too modest to see himself as such a weight... so, what Xu Chang’an really wanted to ask was...

She likes Yun Qian.

Yun Qian’s attitude towards her is also good.

But... how much of Yun Qian’s fondness for her is because she is Chang’an’s teacher?

Well.

Li Zhibai clenched her fists slightly.

No words.

She knows very well that Miss Yun’s affection for her is entirely because of Xu Chang’an, if Xu Chang’an weren’t around, Yun Qian definitely wouldn’t care about her...

This fact being sharply pointed out by Xu Chang’an, even though Li Zhibai had this thought early on, it was still an impactful realization.

"Indeed, in Miss Yun’s heart, I’m not ’Ms. Li’, but ’the teacher of her husband’..." Li Zhibai lightly gritted her teeth, then turned to stare down at Xu Chang’an: "You brat, had to point it out, you mean I can’t feed you bitter tea, but you have to return the favor?"

In marriage, there’s a give and take, but not like mother and daughter.

Xu Chang’an suddenly realized.

A mother can be unreasonable, why should he be quick to argue?

Xu Chang’an decisively admitted defeat, "Teacher, Chang’an was wrong, it’s not intentionally mocking you... just stating the facts."

Li Zhibai: "..."

She noticed the hint of laughter in Xu Chang’an’s eyes, her lips twitching slightly, but in the end, as a typical woman, she used her utmost strength to hit his head with a fist, a breath of relief.

"Oh..." Xu Chang’an seemed to see stars, even swaying a bit, finally holding his head:

"Teacher, there’s a saying, a man’s head, a woman’s waist, shouldn’t be touched, please give the student some face."

"Your head shouldn’t be touched?" Li Zhibai squinted.

"Pretend I didn’t say that."

Xu Chang’an quickly smiled to soothe Li Zhibai’s dangerous thoughts, then... he put away the joking, seriously said: "For you and Miss to have more contact is a good thing... Teacher, I will have Miss spend more time with you, visit Sword Hall often."

"...That’s best."

——

At the banquet table.

The topic returned to the issue of women.

"Is the Seven-Stringed Zither easy to learn?" Yun Qian suddenly asked.

Hearing Yun Qian ask a normal question, Miss Lu froze, sighed with relief then giggled: "Miss has asked the right person, the basics of the zither aren’t too difficult, even a clumsy girl like me has learned to this level by following my elder sister, so... is Miss Yun interested in the Seven Strings?"

Yun Qian said: "Want to learn."

Because Xu Chang’an likes it, wants to learn.

Because the sound is beautiful, wants to learn.

Because it has seven strings, wants to learn.

Zhu Pingniang watched Yun Qian’s eyes, thoughtfully.

She is someone who likes the zither, hearing Yun Qian likes it too, naturally pleased and excited.

"Music, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing, dance, tea are the Six Arts, women only benefit by learning them."
