—In the afternoon, He Yunxiao ate his lunch and returned to the Fan Mansion study.
After spending a few days together, He Yunxiao had become very familiar with the modest Fan Mansion. Even with his eyes closed, he could find his seat in the study.
Standing at the entrance of the Fan House study, he repeatedly recited in his heart: humility, decency, courteousness, loyalty to the king and serving the country, courtesy and filial piety. I am a good person ……
Only after a round of self-hypnosis did He Yunxiao knock gently on the door.
“Ziruo, I’m here.”
The calm and soft voice of Fan Ziruo soon came out from inside the study.
“Ah, Young Master, come in quickly.”
Only when He Yunxiao received permission did he push the door open and enter.
As soon as he entered, he saw this beautiful lady sitting upright at her desk, book in hand, smiling faintly at him.
In the afternoon, the sunlight from the window streamed into the study, and the elegant, gentle beauty sat at her desk with an open blue leather novel in her hand and a tall bookshelf full of books not far behind her.
Dust moved through the air and eyes crossed and intertwined through the sunlight.
Time does not stand still, but it all seems to stand still in time.
Only the insensitive birds outside the window like to make a lot of noise. A few playful chirps, disturbing the quiet of the study.
He Yunxiao couldn’t help but look dumbfounded, ever since favorability rose. Fan Ziruo’s expression of emotions towards him was much richer.
So her smile, too, could be seen from time to time.
As if she was teasing He Yunxiao, Fan Ziruo’s smile grew even more as she watched him stand stupidly at the doorway, looking at himself.
“Young Master what are you looking at? We met this morning, don’t you recognize Ziruo?”
He Yunxiao scratched his head in embarrassment.
In his heart, he exclaimed that he had no talent. Before he entered, he had repeatedly said that he wanted to be serious. As soon as he came in, he was staring at the little girl.
After being severely educated by Nanzhu, He Yunxiao no longer wanted to gain the favor of others by “cheating”. Even at the risk of being disliked by Fan Ziruo, he chose to tell the truth.
“A pretty girl looks better when she smiles. I don’t often see them, but now that I saw one, I couldn’t help but look at her for a while. Please don’t blame me, miss.”
Fan Ziruo sighed and said, “Beauty is really an inconvenience.”
He Yunxiao sat down at his desk and felt a little amused when he heard her say this.
“What ordinary women can’t get for life, what countless men would love for, seems to be worthless to Miss Ziruo.”
“Not only is it worthless, it’s also a burden.”
“If you say that, aren’t you afraid of being beaten?”
Fan Ziruo sighed and said, “Those who adore my beauty will eventually adore the beauty of others too. But all such people will say with conviction and honesty that ‘I only like you’. Perhaps their fondness is true, only that what they like is not exactly me, but only my appearance.”
The more He Yunxiao heard these words, the more he heard them, the more he felt that something was wrong.
He had just complimented her on her beauty and she said, “What I like about her isn’t exactly her, it’s just her appearance.”
He Yunxiao was not stupid, and after figuring out the underlying logic in Fan Ziruo’s words, he immediately expressed his loyalty to Fan Ziruo.
“Ziruo, have you ever been to the Tingfeng Tower?”
“No.”
“The Tingfeng Tower has a wide range of goods, some of which are quite expensive, yet they sell well. The reason for this is that apart from being practical, the things there are also good-looking. In terms of the fine swords used by women alone. The custom-made swords at Tingfeng Tower can be tattooed with all sorts of patterns, gold and silver plated and carved with jade. There are even pendants on the back of the hilt to choose from.”
“Compared to ordinary blacksmith shops, which only focus on sharpness, the custom-made swords from Tingfeng Tower are more expensive and do better business. An object that is sharp is a skill, and so is a beautiful one. In ancient times, there is the story of ‘Zhaogun out of the fortress’, where beauty was used to exchange for peace. A girl born with beauty, despite her troubles, should cherish it all the more.”
“Not to mention that if you meet your true love in the future, if he sees that you don’t value and cherish yourself like this, he will also feel sorry for you.”
Fan Ziruo was dumbstruck as she listened to He Yunxiao say all this, and was slightly touched in her heart.
Although she found her beauty troublesome, she didn’t go so far as to “not cherish” it.
“Young Master has said so much, is he afraid that one day Ziruo will destroy her own face?”
He Yunxiao was naturally afraid. Otherwise he wouldn’t have given Fan Ziruo a lecture.
According to Fan Ziruo’s nature, which was eager to mingle with her heart, she could not guarantee that she would really do something like destroying her beauty to pursue her “true love”.
“I am naturally afraid. One day, if you can’t understand, you can come and find me.”
“For what?”
“I will show you the power of beauty. If you are willing to smile for me, I will rub your shoulders and legs and bring you tea and Snaks.”
[Fan Ziruo’s favorability level changed from 73 to 75]
“Pfft.”
Fan Ziruo, who was always quiet, was also amused by He Yunxiao’s words.
She lowered her head and lightly covered her small mouth with her hand. Her big curved eyes full of laughter.
“Young Master is very fond of pretty girls.”
He Yunxiao said frankly, “The love of beauty is in everyone.”
“Miss Xiaoxiao is also very pretty.”
He Yunxiao continued frankly, “That’s because..”
Danger!
“She’s not as pretty as Miss Ziruo, naturally”
Fan Ziruo looked at He Yunxiao, her gaze sharp as ever.
“Ziruo feels that young master is a bit tongue-tied right now.”
The corners of He Yunxiao’s mouth twitched and he immediately proved his innocence, “Chu Xiaoxiao will look the same for a while, her temper is too bad, she’s not well liked, and she can’t speak. She has only one advantage, she’s a bit pretty. I won’t marry her anyway.”
Fan Ziruo looked at He Yunxiao’s words and blinked. She heard He Yunxiao’s tone of voice and heard that he seemed to be serious when he said he would not marry her.
So, she didn’t dislike Chu Xiaoxiao that much anymore.
However, even though Fan Ziruo didn’t say it, she was still hung up on the secret between He Yunxiao and Chu Xiaoxiao.
This morning alone, there were three incidents. One was not allowing questions about Chu Xiaoxiao’s character. Two was going out and spending half an hour with Chu Xiaoxiao, and three was driving her away to be alone with Chu Xiaoxiao.
Fan Ziruo was not a person who liked to pry into other people’s privacy, but it was just that this matter happened to He Yunxiao and another woman, which always made her feel uncomfortable.
She couldn’t say why she was uncomfortable, but she just didn’t feel comfortable.
Seeing her look of wanting to ask but not refraining from doing so, He Yunxiao simply took the initiative and said, “Does Ziruo want to ask about Chu Xiaoxiao and me?”
“Ziruo shouldn’t ask.”
“But you still want to ask?”
Fan Ziruo knew she shouldn’t ask about He Yunxiao’s relationships, but she still nodded her head indisputably.
“Yes.”
He Yunxiao thought to himself. Fan Ziruo is extremely smart, and Chu Xiaoxiao hangs around in front of her every day, so sooner or later she won’t be able to hide things. Instead of hiding it from Fan Ziruo, I might as well tell her earlier. It is possible that she can even help me out.
“I’ll tell Ziruo, but you must keep it a secret for me.”
Fan Ziruo said firmly, “Okay. I won’t tell even if I die.”
As a result, He Yunxiao’s first words made her people dumbfounded.
“Chu Xiaoxiao is not Chu Fan’s real sister.”
The second sentence.
“She actually likes her brother Chu Fan.”
The third sentence.
“I’m helping her by making Chu Fan like her too.”
Fan Ziruo was so stupefied. Her traditional three views were being frantically rubbed on the ground by He Yunxiao’s words.
