He Yunxiao had to admit that even though he was quite skilled at sweet talk, he still couldn't resist Du Meimei's "I'll give you everything" offensive. In front of Du Meimei, everyone was utterly defeated.

He Yunxiao had tried to persuade Du Meimei about her thoughts and personality several times before, but to little avail.

It's hard to give someone your whole heart and soul unconditionally; you can't possibly spout ridiculous platitudes to them. Nor can you simply keep a stern face and get angry with them.

The only solution right now seems to be to pamper her more.

We really need to pamper her more.

After returning to Du's boudoir, He Yunxiao threw her on the bed, pampered her twice, and used up two handkerchiefs.

Later, with the help of Sister Du, He Yunxiao had the opportunity to try "nuclear power" for the first time.

He Yunxiao's assessment of "nuclear power" is that it is very strong.

Just like nuclear-powered submarines, nuclear-powered submarines are large in scale, have long underwater endurance, powerful attack capabilities, and very short ammunition reloading intervals, making them almost like "unlimited firepower".

He Yunxiao's first attempt had already exhausted Du Meimei so much that she didn't want to talk anymore.

He Yun felt sorry for Du Meimei and thought that pretending once would be enough. Then he hugged her, wiped her mouth, fed her water, and massaged her face to relieve her fatigue.

After a moment of gentle persuasion, He Yunxiao, not forgetting his business, thoughtfully revealed the purpose of his visit.

"Phonetics. I have a question for you."

Du Yinyun was comfortably nestled in her young master's arms when she heard him speak. She then intended to sit up to hear his questions. However, as soon as she had the thought of getting up, He Yunxiao pulled her back down to lie down.

Du Yinyun could only lean against He Yunxiao's chest to reply.

“Young master, you speak, and I will answer all your questions about phonetics.”

He Yunxiao asked, "Does your sister Ziruo care particularly much about ethics and moral principles?"

Du Yinyun nodded and said, "My sister is indeed very polite, but she's not so rigid as to be overly old-fashioned. If there are some things that require flexibility, you can talk to her nicely, or let her think about it herself; she'll figure it out."

He Yunxiao asked, "For example, can she understand the idea of ​​'liking her master'?"

Du Yinyun shook her head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. As the saying goes, 'A teacher for a day is a father for life.' Not to mention my sister, even I can't accept that."

He Yunxiao chuckled and joked, "If I were Yin Yun's master, would Yin Yun still not accept it?"

Du Yinyun quickly got up from his embrace and hurriedly explained, "Young Master is different! No matter what Young Master is, Yinyun is still Young Master Yinyun. She is still the little maid and servant who Young Master can order around at will."

He tapped Du Meimei's nose and asked, "Is she the kind of maid who can bear your baby?"

Du Yinyun blushed, bit her lip, mustered her courage, and bent down to untie the belt that He Yunxiao had just tied.

“As long as you don’t mind the sound, I will give you as many as you want.”

He Yunxiao's "nuclear power" was activated again. He wasn't afraid, after all, it was "nuclear power," and he wasn't afraid of it no matter how many times it came. He just didn't want to exhaust Du Meimei to the point of being unable to speak at this critical juncture. If that happened, the entire afternoon would probably be wasted on this matter.

It wasn't that He Yunxiao disliked her; it was just that he urgently needed to break down Fan Ziruo's emotional block.

As long as Ziruo's inner conflict remains unresolved and her favorability rating remains below 80, I'll have to constantly worry about Chu Fan staying at the Fan residence. I can't leave the Fan residence during the day, and I have to go to Linxuan Palace at night. If this continues, Sister Jiang and the antidote girl can't afford to waste any more time.

Especially Sister Jiang. Three days of the week we agreed upon with her have already passed. We have four days left to earn ten thousand taels, which is quite a lot of pressure.

He Yunxiao quickly grabbed her belt to stop Du Meimei's movements.

"Let's not talk about that now. Let's talk about your sister Ziruo first."

Du Yinyun asked in confusion, "What does Young Master want to talk about?"

He Yunxiao had previously talked to Du Meimei in the grove about his plan to pursue her sister Ziruo, so he didn't beat around the bush and said directly to her, "Recently, my relationship with your sister has been progressing very slowly. I think it might be because your sister and I have a 'teacher-student' relationship."

Du Meimei tilted her head and pondered for a moment, then said with a hint of doubt, "I heard from you, sister, that the young master has recently been teaching her how to write novels. You are also teaching him how to write essays for the imperial examinations. Can this kind of relationship be considered 'teacher and student'?"

He Yunxiao himself didn't think so either; it was more like classmates helping each other. But the problem wasn't his opinion, but Fan Ziruo's.

He Yunxiao said with a wry smile, "I think my relationship with Ziruo is more like classmates helping each other. But my opinion doesn't matter; it depends on what your sister thinks."

Du Yinyun asked suspiciously, "So, young master wants me to help you persuade your sister?"

He Yunxiao did indeed think that way, and that was even the purpose of his visit to Sister Du. However, it's not quite accurate to say that.

He Yunxiao knew that Sister Du wasn't Nan Zhu's wife, so she wouldn't care whether he was lying to her or not. Besides, Sister Du was incredibly intelligent and would probably guess his intentions for coming to see her.

After a moment's thought, He Yunxiao finally gave up on the idea of ​​saying nice things to Du Meimei.

I usually have to lower myself and say all sorts of nice things to Chu Chu, there's no other way, Chu Chu just falls for that, that's how you have to coax her.

Every worker has to bow to their boss; it's all out of necessity, which is understandable.

But both Sister Du and Mrs. Nanzhu are my leading ladies, and I should treat them equally. I can't just stop deceiving Mrs. Nanzhu because she doesn't want to be deceived, and then take advantage of Sister Du's tolerance to say nice things to her to deceive her.
