Chapter 144 A smart man should learn to show weakness
Xie Yanyu didn't know what he wanted to say to her, but she had a vague guess.
So she stopped walking.
Glancing at him sideways, she waited for him to speak.
Immediately following.
Then I saw him getting closer.
Maybe it was because he couldn't see, but he walked too close. The orchid fragrance on his body was overwhelming, like vines or spider silk, weaving a web around her little by little, trying to trap her tightly inside.
He could almost embrace her if he stretched out his hand again.
Xie Yanyu felt that they were a little too close.
She wanted to step back, but he grabbed her hand. She heard him say, "I don't believe you don't remember what you promised me."
It really is this matter.
From the moment they met until now, Xie Yanyu had been wondering why he hadn't mentioned this to her again. In her opinion, he was a very paranoid person, clinging to anything he got his hands on, even if it meant bloodshed. He had made a deal with her, so how could he not mention it?
I will definitely mention it.
I just chose to bring it up now.
There was no one else in the room, and the paranoid man grabbed her wrist.
He didn't believe she didn't remember, and he wasn't going to give her the chance to forget. So, just in case she truly forgot, he whispered in her ear before she could speak, "You promised me that if I helped you get the Heart Mirror, you'd love me. This is the reward I deserve."
Xie Yanyu responded: "Yeah. I remember."
"But I don't get the feeling that you like me, or are trying to like me.
"I mentioned this matter in the carriage, and then it was dropped. I was here just now, and after Xie Chengjin left, you turned around and wanted to leave. You treated me like air, didn't you? You didn't keep your promise."
Helan Wei brought out the matter bit by bit.
His tone was very gentle and he seemed a little confused.
But this feeling is all too familiar.
Xie Yanyu knew that this was a sign that he was going crazy. If any answer was not to his liking, he would start crying.
But most likely, no matter what she said, he would not be satisfied, because he knew in his heart that she did not like him that much.
He would only hysterically force her to repeat herself over and over again, and then cry while looking at her with his dark eyes. Even though he couldn't see now, his gaze would still be glued to her, and then he would pinch her neck. He used to pinch it hard, but now he would pinch it gently, and then he would ask her to look at him and love him, or die together.
Xie Yanyu actually didn't quite understand.
All his changes were traceable and not abrupt, but she didn't expect him to become like this.
It could also be because she had done something humiliating to him or said something humiliating to him before.
So he became like this.
So pitiful, so tearful...
Xie Yanyu thought.
Sure enough, the next second, she felt his hand climbing up her neck, as if he wanted to strangle her——
Helan Wei really wanted to strangle her.
It didn't take much effort, but he didn't know what to do with her.
He didn't know how she could so calmly respond to what she had just said, saying she remembered her promise. She clearly remembered, yet she didn't do anything. Was it because she didn't want to? Why didn't she want to? Did she just hate him so much, find it hard to accept him, and could that invalidate everything she had promised?
He wanted to get his share of the reward, so he could only use this method to intimidate and threaten her.
as always.
But his hand fell to her neck.
I heard the voice of the top star in my head.
The other party whispered to him, "Although you didn't use much force, don't, don't pinch her! Young Master, think about what I taught you before. You did it well before. Didn't you anger her brother away? Now it's your turn to face her directly. You can't lose your mind the moment you face her! Show weakness, you must show weakness!"
Helan Wei did not take his hand away.
Ever since he met her in the brothel, he had never communicated with her directly like this. He always said a word or two indirectly in front of others. He had been using the top-notch teaching method, but from beginning to end, he still maintained a condescending attitude, with only a slight change in his expression, making him look a little more pitiful.
But he never really bowed his head or showed weakness.
Really, truly humble yourself.
He didn't think he could do it.
I won’t do it either.
How could he?
But at this time, after a long silence, he could not hear her answer.
So he finally communicated with the top player in his mind and asked him, "What if showing weakness is useless?"
The top star said: "It's useful, it must be useful!"
Helan Wei said in a calm tone: "If it's useless, I will kill you."

Xie Yanyu felt that Helan Wei's fingertips moved.
She didn't really want to respond to him.
Because she felt that he was going crazy again, she didn't want to talk to a madman. It was useless to say anything. She felt a little irritated before she even opened her mouth.
But she knew now that he couldn't really hurt her, like a cat with its claws clipped off. Even if it showed its claws as a threat, it wouldn't be aggressive. She only needed to wave her hand casually, and she should be able to knock his hand away.
So she didn't struggle.
She stood there quietly waiting for him to go crazy.
But the next second.
But I heard him whisper, "You didn't keep your promise. Is it because I'm blind that you won't even try to like me? Because I'm useless and don't deserve your love?"
This is perfectly normal, even a little humble.
She hadn't expected him to speak in such a tone. She had expected him to say he wanted to die with her. But now, she was stunned, not knowing how to react.
But there was no response from the other side.
Without hearing her answer, tears started to fall.
The hand that was on her neck moved up and carefully touched her face.
Xie Yanyu felt his touch from the corner of her eyes to the tip of her eyebrows.
Then I heard him say, "Originally I wanted to force you to fulfill your promise, but... forget it. Come to think of it, I can't even see your expression right now. How can I, a cripple like you, have the nerve to ask you to spare some energy and try to love me?"
He should still be of some use.
Xie Yanyu never thought of not fulfilling this promise. She didn't say anything just now because she found it annoying that he would go crazy all the time.
But this time, he made a change first, so that all the useful reactions she had to him in the past were ineffective.
She was also a little confused for a moment: "...No, that's not what I meant."
"Then what do you think I should do? What do you want me to do? Be nicer to you, like in the past, serving you tea and water, or tell you every day that I love you?"
She still didn't understand what was wrong with him, so she simply threw the question back to him.
This also means fulfilling the promise.
So the top card was on the other side, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Okay, Helan Wei won’t kill him this time.
He had met too many people and knew what Helan Wei wanted.
In fact, he loved her. He sometimes wondered if he wanted her love, or if he wanted to be in love with her, or if he was just trying to love someone. But this person was too arrogant, his understanding of love was distorted and extreme. What did he think love was? It was hurt, demanding, and plundering.
Such a person.
How could he possibly express love in the right way?
He only knew that he wanted her to look at him more, so he would demand it from her, threaten her, and pester her until he got it. He was so high and mighty, with so many ways to get something, how could he bow his head? But after getting it, he realized that he had traded it for something, and he still felt that it was not what he wanted. So what did he want?
But people are not objects.
A madman who only knows how to ask for things is forcing and oppressing others.
The top girl wanted to convey to him that demands and oppression would never be of any use, and that it was necessary to be like this and know how to show weakness. He just wanted a little attention, and a smarter man would show weakness and let her take the initiative to give him her attention.
But the words haven't been spoken yet.
The next second,
Then he heard Helan Wei say, "No need for that."
Maybe it was a case of showing weakness once and tasting the sweetness.
So the man lowered his posture a little more, lowered his head, and while crying quietly, he carefully rubbed the corner of her lips.
Xie Yanyu didn't hide.
If he just wanted to kiss her, she wouldn't mind.
Perhaps it was because they had too many intimate moments in their previous life, so he was very familiar with her preferences in this regard, and she was not opposed to it, so she raised her head and signaled him to continue.
But the next second,
But I heard a vague voice coming from his lips: "I know I'm blind and not worthy of you, so if you are still willing to fulfill your promise, it depends on your mood. Do whatever you feel like doing."

Tianjian Sect.
Li Xun scared all the guests away.
But the rumors had already spread into various forms. In fact, he didn't like to explain so much to people. He would just pick up his sword and kill anyone who talked nonsense. But there were endless people to kill. After all, the Xie family was such a noble family. They were so pedantic and attached great importance to rules. Li Xun thought about his past life, and finally asked several elders in the sect to explain his original words again.
He gave the order.
Then he took the communication talisman and began to think about whether to send a message to Qingqing.
But he wasn't done with it.
He then threw the communication talisman aside.
The other side.
The elders received the instructions and left.
Just as he was about to follow Li Xun's original words and tell others that Li Xun had a bad character and the Xie family valued rules and was unwilling to marry him.
However, before any action could be taken, an elder said:
"Let's add some more charges. He's offended quite a few people this time, all of them aristocratic families and immortal sects. We might as well add fuel to the fire and spread some more shocking and worse things. Ideally, we should make those aristocratic families and immortal sects think that, in addition to Li Xun's lack of moral integrity, he also did things that harmed their interests when he was in charge of the Tianjian Sect. We should make them feel that forming an alliance with the Tianjian Sect was a mistake."
"Why?" someone nearby asked puzzled.
The elder said:
"Isn't this a good opportunity? Let's make Li Xun even more disgraced, and then we can force him to step down.
"Has he had enough of the position of Sect Leader?"
