Chapter 256 I Need to Find a Way to Atone for My Crime



After having breakfast, He Yunxiao went directly to the Fan residence to pick up and drop off Sister Du for work. Then he returned to the Fan residence's study to discuss with Fan Ziruo the matter of helping Sister Jiang atone for her sins.

He Yunxiao told Ziruo's wife the story with some minor revisions, mainly omitting some minor details, such as his relationship with Sister Jiang, their interactions, money, interest, pregnancy, and other less important things.

After hearing He Yunxiao's description, Fan Ziruo said curiously, "Young Master..."

He Yunxiao's mind was blank at this moment, and he was just waiting for his wife Ziruo to teach him how to do it step by step.

"Please speak freely, Madam."

Fan Ziruo said, "Young Master, you just said that Jiang Wuyou didn't know you had discovered her identity?"

He Yunxiao said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"I originally thought she sought refuge in the Marquis's mansion, but now that she's unaware her identity has been exposed, it seems she didn't enter the mansion for refuge. Could it be... she entered the mansion voluntarily?"

Fan Ziruo's words were roundabout, almost directly stating whether Jiang Wuyou liked her.

He Yunxiao's previously empty mind was now filled with quick wit. Various methods to avoid the chaotic situation collided fiercely in his mind, repeatedly verifying them in an effort to find the best answer.

I'm not good at doing serious work, but I'm number one at wooing my wife.

Without saying a word, He Yunxiao first hugged Ziruo's wife, and then said in an extremely narcissistic way, "Ziruo, Yin Jing likes countless girls, but I like very few girls."

Upon hearing "very few," Fan Ziruo immediately asked, "Who else?"

He Yunxiao remained calm and composed. The phrase "very few" was a deliberate hook he left to test Zi Ruo's wife's attitude.

As it turns out, He Yunxiao's previous guess was entirely correct.

"True love" is Ziruo's wife's Achilles' heel.

Taking advantage of her, asking her for help, or even lying to her, flattering her, or offending her are all minor issues. As long as you and she truly love each other, there won't be any problems.

In other words, what Fan Ziruo wanted was not all of He Yunxiao's feelings, but rather the position of his spiritual partner, He Yunxiao's confidante, and the person He Yunxiao had to "like the most".

He Yunxiao knew this, so he added, "Besides Ziruo, I also like my aunt."

Upon hearing that He Yunxiao liked his aunt, Fan Ziruo felt relieved and her tense state immediately relaxed. Her body, which had been stiff with tension, now slumped against He Yunxiao.

"Is there anything else?" she asked.

"There are many more, but my favorites are still my wives."

He Yunxiao lowered his head and kissed Fan Ziruo on the cheek.

Fan Ziruo got the answer she wanted and was kissed on the cheek by He Yunxiao. Now she nestled comfortably in his arms and asked, "Does Jiang Wuyou like you?"

He Yunxiao dared not hide anything and said loudly and confidently, "That's natural."

Fan Ziruo said, "Young Master already has Ziruo. Even if it's for the sake of espionage, you shouldn't get too close to her."

He Yunxiao didn't answer directly, but instead subtly lowered his head to kiss her, "Then, may I...?"

The man's warm, moist breath brushed against her face, and Fan Ziruo said somewhat agitatedly, "Husband, let's wait until we're married before you take Ziruo's body, okay?"

He Yunxiao knew that Fan Ziruo was no ordinary girl; she was well-versed in literature and would not misuse words.

Now, Ziruo's wife is using an interrogative tone and this grammar, which effectively hands over the decision-making power to him. If he says "no," it means he's rejecting her proposal, and he can take her body right now, even if that "body" is fake, just a kiss.

"not good."

When Fan Ziruo heard He Yunxiao reject her, her eyelashes trembled, and her small hands instinctively gripped He Yunxiao's clothes, looking panicked and helpless.

"Young master, Ziruo heard that it hurts the first time, is that true?"

He Yunxiao was speechless for a moment.

The position is wrong, why does it hurt?

Although Ziruo's wife is a complete novice in this regard and is indeed very cute, her behavior inexplicably gives He Yunxiao a "torturous" sense of guilt.

"Zi Ruo."

"Um?"

"Um, let's touch lips. It won't hurt, and you won't get pregnant. It's actually pretty much the same as holding hands."

Seeing his wife Ziruo's bewildered expression, He Yunxiao lost interest in taking her "body" anymore. He released her, letting her sit up straight in the chair without leaning on him, and smoothed out the wrinkles he had made on her clothes.

"Ziruo, you should ask someone else when you have time. Things between men and women are not quite the same as what you imagined before."

"oh……"

Touching on a blind spot in Fan Ziruo's knowledge, both of them were speechless, and the atmosphere in the Fan family study became unusually awkward.

"Ahem, Madam, do you have any ideas about Jiang Wuyou's matter?"

The topic returned to the matter of redeeming Sister Jiang's crime, and Fan Ziruo then took center stage.

In fact, He Yunxiao also understood the key to the problem. The key was not to confess to Sister Jiang that he had seen through her identity, but how to obtain the conditions needed to redeem himself—the secret agent that Yan had planted in Qi.

Reporting spies from the Yan state is the most efficient way to redeem oneself through meritorious service.

"Young master, are you confident that after revealing your identity, you can get Jiang Wuyou to reveal all the spies she knows?"

To avoid revealing his relationship with Sister Jiang, He Yunxiao scratched his head. "I'm not sure. She probably doesn't like me that much, right?"

Fan Ziruo said, "In that case, we can only try to determine who the Yan Kingdom spies are by observing who she comes into contact with."
