Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 773 773 Compensation

Just when Qin Yi was boasting about himself in countless ways, making even Wang Zheng want to punch him, Mo Wuji arrived.
The first thing Mo Wuji said upon seeing Qin Yi was: "Brother Qin, I've followed your instructions exactly. I can't figure out which part went wrong?"
Qin Yi was bewildered; wasn't this supposed to be his line?
"You need to tell me the whole story first."
Mo Wuji recounted everything that happened, in complete detail.
After listening, Qin Yi and Wang Zheng exchanged a quirky glance.
High throw... the bed collapsed...
They both burst out laughing, doubling over with laughter.
Mo Wuji was utterly puzzled by their laughter.
"Old Mo, you're such a talent," Qin Yi said, patting Mo Wuji's shoulder as tears of laughter came out.
Mo Wuji was bewildered, "I did everything as Brother Qin instructed."
Qin Yi finally managed to suppress his laughter, "I told you to throw her onto the bed, not to throw her several meters away. You think you're shot putting?"
"It's a blessing it was the Little White Fairy. If it were any other woman, she'd either be dead or paralyzed from such a toss."
"Old Mo, I meant for you to be a bit domineering. Many women like their men to be a bit forceful, like when they're pinned against a wall or onto a bed. But you, you tossed her several meters. Were you testing her weight or your arm strength?"
"Damn, if I were the Little White Fairy, I'd have drawn my sword and chopped you up ages ago for being so unromantic."
Mo Wuji finally understood what went wrong and realized how foolish he was, blushing in embarrassment.
"Old Mo, your wisdom impresses even me, so how can you be so clueless when it comes to matters between men and women?"
Mo Wuji said sheepishly, "I have no experience, I'll be careful next time."
"You're thinking there'll be a next time? Next time, let's see if you can even get into Little White Fairy's room?"
Qin Yi said, turning to Wang Zheng, "You share some responsibility in this matter too."
Wang Zheng was startled and puzzled, "What does it have to do with me?"
"The beds on your ship are too flimsy. Little White Fairy is slim, yet she could break the bed, shows how unreliable the beds on your ship are."
Wang Zheng was speechless, thinking even an iron bed would leave a mark from such a toss.
"Old Wang, because the beds on your ship are so unreliable, poor Old Mo suffered. If it wasn't for that, he would be happily embracing his beauty now, utterly content. Instead, thanks to you, he almost lost his life. You owe him compensation."
Wang Zheng twitched at the mouth, marveling at how Qin Yi's absurd blame game could pin this on him.
"How should I compensate?"
Qin Yi grinned mischievously, "Since Old Mo missed his opportunity to win over the beauty because of you, you can share a bed with him tonight."
Wang Zheng: "..."
Mo Wuji was startled, and after glancing at the bearded Wang Zheng, he was so scared that his voice changed, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "No need, really no need."
"Even if you wanted, I wouldn't consent. I'm a married man," Wang Zheng said with a face full of disdain.
Mo Wuji sighed heavily with relief, thinking: Thank you for not agreeing.
...
...
The next afternoon, Qin Yi and Wang Zheng were advising Mo Wuji on how to earn Bai Jingqing's forgiveness.
Since last night, whenever Bai Jingqing saw Mo Wuji, she'd turn and walk away in disgust.
At this moment, an armored warrior came in to that they were about to leave the Sand Sea.
The group walked out and stood at the side of the boat.
The sand ship was still moving through the Sand Sea, but the surrounding large ships had become numerous.
"Ahead is Sand City," Wang Zheng said.
"Sand City?" Qin Yi was curious.
Wang Zheng explained, "We are all under the administration of Sand City. Do you see the ships around? They're all back for resupply."
"The senior I mentioned before, who can speak with birds, lives in Sand City."
The sand ship moved steadily, and Qin Yi could feel the speed significantly slow down.
Soon, a platform appeared in view, about the same height as the sand ship, resembling a dock.
Eventually, they docked and stopped.
Wang Zheng ordered the replenishment of supplies for the ship and then told Qin Yi, "I'll take you to at the City Lord's Mansion first, then we'll visit that senior."
Qin Yi nodded slightly. Actually, whether he visited that senior didn't matter much anymore because Qin Mu and Ning Tian would help him take care of Lei Ming and the others.
"Where is Little White Fairy?" Qin Yi asked.
"She should still be in her room."
"Old Mo, go call Little White Fairy; we're disembarking."
Mo Wuji was in a difficult spot, as Bai Jingqing now walked away whenever she saw him.
Just then, Bai Jingqing walked over with Zi Yuan and the two other women.
Qin Yi smiled and said, "We were just about to have Old Mo call you."
Bai Jingqing froze her pretty face, not saying a word.
Qin Yi touched his nose, "We're saying you two arguing shouldn't drag innocents into it, right? I didn't annoy you. As the saying goes, a fight between couples at the bedhead..."
"Swish!"
Bai Jingqing drew her Shocking Dragon Sword three inches out of the sheath.
Qin Yi hurriedly shut his mouth; with her temper, Old Mo would have his hands full in the future.
"Old Wang, we just go up, right?"
Wang Zheng nodded.
Qin Yi leaped onto the dock, surprised by the difference, only a few steps away yet in a completely different world.
The wind was howling at the ship's location, but on this shore, it was calm, with a gentle breeze and bright sunshine.
When Mo Wuji and the others climbed up, they all expressed their amazement.
The group followed Wang Zheng for about ten minutes and saw an ancient town.
"Living in the city, coming here feels like traveling through time," Qin Yi joked.
"Not at all," Mo Wuji said seriously.
Qin Yi rolled his eyes, "You Five Great Families hid in the deep mountains like spooks, calling yourselves a Hidden Family, but you're just a bunch of hillbillies, cut off from the world but blindly arrogant. Even Liang Jingru wouldn't dare give you such courage."
Mo Wuji's face was full of embarrassment.
Bai Jingqing's mouth twitched.
Daring to speak about the Five Great Families like this, Qin Yi was uniquely bold, with a tongue sharp as a knife and not a care in the world.
As the group approached, there were armored warriors guarding the city gate.
Wang Zheng identified himself, easily bringing Qin Yi and others into the city.
"Well, it's lively here."
It's called an ancient city because nearly all the buildings are built from bluestone, even the ground is paved with bluestone slabs.
The roads were wide, lined with shops, bustling with people.
After being in the Sand Sea for several days, seeing nothing but yellow sand and dense fog, this place was a breath of fresh air.
"Qin Yi, I'll take you to the City Lord's Mansion to in first."
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
After a while, Wang Zheng stopped at a stall.
This stall sold bean curd pudding, and the owner was an elderly man busy with work. Looking up and seeing Qin Yi and the others, he smiled and asked, "Would you like a bowl of bean curd pudding?"
Wang Zheng looked at Qin Yi, "Shall we have a bowl? This bean curd pudding is a rare delicacy."
Unexpectedly, Wang Zheng was a foodie, but living in the Sand Sea was tough, so it was understandable. Qin Yi nodded, and the group sat around a small table.
