Unaware that My Legitimate Sister is My Husband - Chapter 109
~End of chapter 108
Xi Xian smiled, her white fingers tapping her lips, as she softly said, “Then will you allow it or not? After all, the family will not allow me to become a nun.”
She desired to be redeemed, but was also unwilling to give herself hope, so she believed that her legitimate sister would not agree.
The fishing rod began to move again, and she looked in the distance, so far that she saw the crescent waning moon between the mountain passes, as her mood turned faintly ardent and mad.
Without a hurry, her legitimate sister reeled in the line, before gently smiling and saying, “Why not?”
As if she had a deeper meaning, her voice was low and slow, “As long as it’s your wish, I will fulfill it.”
(42.2)
“As long as it’s your wish, I will fulfill it.”
Xi Xian felt surprised for the first time, so surprised that her brain buzzed.
Her legitimate sister, however, said, “On one condition.”
Xi Xian blinked her eyes and said sluggishly, “…… What condition?”
Her legitimate sister looked back, her face gentle and calm under the moonlight, “You’re not allowed to shave your head.”
Xi Xian lowered her eyes and said in a very small voice, “Three thousand strands of vexation, shaving them off would be so good.”
If she didn’t shave her hair, she would still be in the mundane world, and she wouldn’t even be able to think of herself as a person outside of the profane world. Everything would be meaningless.
Xi Xian clenched her fists and refused with a pale face, “No, I want to shave my head.”
Shave it clean.
?
Her legitimate sister’s complexion darkened slightly, she put down her fishing rod, slowly wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and smiled as she said, “You are still young, so it is difficult for you to make the most correct decisions. This is just a test, at the beginning of spring, if you still feel this way, I will allow you to shave your head.”
Her voice was elegant, giving off the feeling of certainty and ease.
Xi Xian, however, knew that this was not a certainty without any basis.
Her legitimate sister’s identity was very noble and she was very powerful, as long as she was wanted to, she had a thousand and one ways to stop her from doing what she wanted.
But as long as her legitimate sister promised something, she would never go back on her promise.
Xi Xian thought for a while before nodding her head, “Alright, I’ll just wait for next spring.”
?
When her legitimate sister got up, Xi Xian realized that Xi Heng was a bit taller, but very thin, her neck was elegant, long and slender, making people think that she was an immortal not eating human food, but Xi Xian knew that her legitimate sister’s desires and insanity were stronger than anyone else.
If it was the right time and place, Xi Xian even thought that her legitimate sister could become a female emperor, like the female emperor of the previous dynasty, reaching a peak that women could not achieve.
However, she ran into the crown prince, and she met her death.
Her legitimate sister looked at her thoughtfully, her long, thin, pale fingers closed slightly to fasten Xi Xian’s cloak for her, and then she examined her coldly, smiling helplessly, “Xianxian, tell me, when will you finally be well-behaved? Mmh?”
Her legitimate sister still treated her as a child having a temper tantrum, but did not directly meet her demand, even though Xi Xian felt that her legitimate sister understood very clearly.
Yet she was still looking down on her and did not think that Xi Xian’s decision would last.
Xi Xian’s face changed slightly, she backed away half a step, and said in a daze, “In your eyes, in you people’s eyes……, what is well-behaved and what is not well-behaved?”
Her legitimate sister said, “The rebellion of the weak is being not well-behaved, do you understand?”
This was the first time in the past few months that Xi Xian felt annoyed. She felt her blood gurgling and rushing up, and she fiercely started to rebel, “No! I just want to cut my hair to prove my determination, I just want my heart to be at peace, I’ve never hurt anyone! I’m not not well-behaved!”
Her legitimate sister smiled, her clothes were thin, the cold wind was bitter, but she wasn’t in any hurry, she just came closer, smelled the milky fragrance of Xi Xian’s hair, twisted the young girl’s black hair, and said in a relaxed manner, “Your hair is so beautiful, the best satin in the world can’t compare to it, and big sister hopes that you will keep it.”
Her legitimate sister’s voice seemed to be pointing at something, calm and idle: “Beyond the three realms, beyond the human world, nothing is real. Since your heart is already firm in its path, why can’t you tolerate a head full of black hair?”
Xi Xian was about to collapse.
She felt that she couldn’t counter her legitimate sister, and even felt that what her legitimate sister said was right. She was the one who wasn’t firm enough, and she was the one who was throwing a tantrum.
She tried to strengthen her mind, but her legitimate sister had already left, her voice drifted into her ears like a dream, “I will order your grandmother to stop looking for a husband for you.”
“This is your choice, don’t you ever regret it.”

Her legitimate sister left, leaving Xi Xian alone, she was wearing her legitimate sister’s azure cloak, sitting in a daze under the moonlight, looking at the surface of the mirror-like lake.
She extended her hand out and stirred the reflection of the moon in the lake, so the crescent moon shattered as well, and the madness in her heart gradually calmed down.
She was right.
She simply wanted to live a peaceful life, and be a fulfilled and happy person, even without any love, she would still able to live a good life, so there was nothing wrong with becoming a nun. Her only wrong was that she was too weak, so much so that even after making such a decision, she still had to plead for her legitimate sister’s mercy.
Xi Xian pursed the corners of her pale lips, thinking in her heart : and so what?
