Chapter 1078 — You've Got It Wrong: Watching Wei Zhao leave so briskly, Qiu Lingshan suddenly hesitated.

Of course, there was one possibility: that Gu Mengyao, Shen Yushu, and Tang Zhi all knew nothing about these things. But how could that be? Nothing stays hidden forever. Since Wei Zhao could so easily tell her these things, there was no question of keeping them secret at all.
So Qiu Lingshan thought: could it be that Wei Zhao was deliberately testing her, deliberately painting himself as so despicable, so that she would stop making trouble for him in the future?
At that thought, Qiu Lingshan let it go, and reached out to undo her belt...
Qiu Lingshan was a person who liked cleanliness, so the first thing she did when she got home was take off her outer trousers, then sit on the sofa and slowly remove her other clothes, so as not to dirty the sofa.
So Qiu Lingshan, without thinking, also started to take off her outer trousers.
"What are you doing?" Seeing Qiu Lingshan go straight for her trousers, Wei Zhao could not help but find it funny, and stopped teasing her. Tease her any more and something really might happen. After all, Wei Zhao had come to Qiu Lingshan's place truly intending to help her raise her strength, not to do anything else.
"Didn't you tell me to take off my clothes..." Qiu Lingshan looked at Wei Zhao, puzzled.
"I told you to take off your clothes, but I didn't tell you to take off your trousers," Wei Zhao corrected.
"Huh?" Qiu Lingshan was stunned again. Clothes... trousers, was there a difference? If you really split hairs, of course there was, but in ordinary speech, didn't they both mean the same thing?
Qiu Lingshan felt rather gloomy. Could Wei Zhao really have some peculiar fetish, only interested in the upper half and with no interest in the lower?
But after all her earlier suspicions and the way Wei Zhao had played her, Qiu Lingshan was not about to voice an opinion so readily this time. Clothes off, then. She had gone a little numb to it. So long as she could raise her strength, nothing else mattered.
Qiu Lingshan's what-the-hell attitude began to work its mischief again, and so she stopped caring once more.
Having taken off her outer garment, Qiu Lingshan began unbuttoning her shirt, but Wei Zhao stopped her.
"That's enough. Just take off the outer garment." Much as Wei Zhao would have liked to keep appreciating Qiu Lingshan's inner substance, he dismissed the idea.
Some things had to stop while they were ahead. Little Miss Song's troubles were far too many; cracking her cases was much harder than fulfilling Feng Xiaoxiao's wishes. And Wei Zhao did not want to incur any more romantic debts for no reason.
As things stood, he already had enough trouble. Tang Zhi and Feng Xiaoxiao could be considered his confirmed wives, primary and secondary.
As for the eldest young miss and little Shu, he did not know their true feelings. Little Shu showed hers more plainly, but she often lied. The eldest young miss rarely deceived anyone, but she seldom expressed anything at all.
And then there was Sun Jingyan, half a mistress besides. So for the time being Wei Zhao did not much want to provoke Qiu Lingshan.
