He Yunxiao didn't know why Jiang Wuyou suddenly asked him to teach her how to write poetry. Logically speaking, Sister Jiang wasn't the kind of literary girl like Fan Ziruo who loved words, so it was unlikely that she would be interested in something like poetry.
He didn't understand, but he didn't ask.
He Yunxiao knew exactly how Jiang Wuyou treated him.
He has always been the kind of person who repays even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude.
Let alone writing poetry, even if Sister Jiang needed him to risk his life one day, He Yunxiao wouldn't even flinch.
Moreover, today we're here to coax Sister Jiang into agreeing to redeem herself, so naturally we can't go against her wishes.
He Yunxiao said, "Okay, how would you like to write the poem, sister?"
Jiang Wuyou asked in confusion, "Writing poetry is just writing poetry, how else can it be written?"
He Yunxiao laughed and said, "Sister, you don't know this. When the daughters of officials' families were young, they were too short to reach the table, so their maids would hold them and let them sit on their laps to learn to write. If you can't reach the table either, I'd gladly let you sit on my lap."
Jiang Wuyou understood what He Yunxiao meant. Always hugging and cuddling, this rascal is definitely up to no good.
She wasn't as shy as a young girl; such lighthearted teasing words couldn't break her defenses.
She feigned anger and scolded, "Pah! I asked you to write poetry, but you don't know what's good for you; your mind is full of bad thoughts!"
He Yunxiao laughed and said, "I'm not just thinking about these things. I'm also thinking about how to ask Sister Jiang for the money she owes me."
Speaking of money, Jiang Wuyou was reminded of Du Yinyun's matter.
She put down her pen and said earnestly to He Yunxiao, "Yunxiao, do you know how it went that day when I asked Yinyun to have a heart-to-heart talk?"
He Yunxiao knew exactly what the outcome would be; he not only listened attentively but also actively participated in the discussion throughout.
"How would I know the outcome of my sister's heart-to-heart talk with Du, the courtesan?"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiang Wuyou began negotiating with He Yunxiao, saying, "I'll tell you the result: the money I owe you will be wiped clean, how about that?"
He Yunxiao naturally refused, saying, "Then forget it, money is more important."
Jiang Wuyou became anxious when He Yunxiao refused outright.
She was a spy for the Yan Kingdom, while He Yunxiao was the son of a military general from the Qi Kingdom. She naturally liked He Yunxiao, but Jiang Wuyou feared even more that once He Yunxiao learned her true identity, his love would turn to hatred. He would hate her for deceiving his feelings and for using him for information.
Although Jiang Wuyou had a clear conscience and had no intention of using He Yunxiao, once her identity was exposed and the two sides became adversaries, many things would become unclear.
National hatred and family feuds are intertwined with personal feelings, leaving Jiang Wuyou somewhat at a loss.
She herself couldn't help He Yunxiao, but Du Yinyun could.
They liked each other and were a perfect match; they should have been a couple.
He Yunxiao no longer asks about Du Yinyun, but she can't let Du Yinyun's feelings for He Yunxiao be buried.
So he had no choice but to quickly pull He Yunxiao's attention back and say, "It's a matter of feelings!"
He Yunxiao continued to feign indifference, but his words were already subtly manipulating Jiang Wuyou. "So what if it's a matter of feelings? With such a bad reputation, she wouldn't like me, would she?"
Seeing He Yunxiao's lack of interest, Jiang Wuyou angrily retorted, "How is it impossible?"
He Yunxiao didn't say anything when she said that, but just covered his mouth and laughed.
Jiang Wuyou was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had let something slip in her haste!
Without Du Yinyun as her trump card, she had no other reason to stop He Yunxiao from asking her for money in the short term.
Jiang Wuyou was angry, furious, and amused at the same time. She punched He Yunxiao with her fist and scolded, "You little rascal! I've helped you so much, and in the end, you still want to dig a pit for me!"
He Yunxiao dared not refute or dodge in the slightest.
When Sister Jiang got tired of hitting him, he grabbed her soft little fist and gently squeezed it, causing her to fall into his arms.
Jiang Wuyou, of course, refused. In her bosom, she kept an envelope that He Yunxiao absolutely could not discover.
Although He Yunxiao was pulling her upper body and she was lying in his arms, her waist and legs were still on the outside. This meant there was still a chance.
It can only be said that Sister Jiang underestimated He Yunxiao.
He Yunxiao grabbed Sister Jiang's fist that was hitting him, gently pulled her so that her upper body fell into his arms, and then immediately released her hands and hugged her slender and soft waist instead.
With a little force, he pulled on Jiang Wuyou's waist, causing her to sit obediently on his joined thighs.
Just as Jiang Wuyou felt her hands were free, she immediately discovered that she was suddenly sitting on He Yunxiao's lap.
Normally it would be fine, but now it's absolutely unacceptable.
She pushed against He Yunxiao's chest with her hands, trying to get away from him.
After being pushed twice, Jiang Wuyou realized that she had no chance.
Her slender waist was firmly embraced by He Yunxiao's hands. In this situation, no matter how hard she tried with her hands and feet, she couldn't push him away as long as He Yunxiao didn't let go.
Fortunately, the rascal has been behaving himself so far, and there is no risk that the envelope will be discovered.
Seeing that he's honest, let's let him hug me for now.
Seeing that Sister Jiang always had a cold face, He Yunxiao was afraid of upsetting her and was also a little nervous.
He said in a fawning tone, "Sister, I was wrong."
Jiang Wuyou said coldly, "Now that you know you're wrong, why don't you let go?"
He Yunxiao said seriously, "Sister said she would give me money before, but now for some reason, she doesn't want to give it to me anymore. This won't do, I won't agree. I'm used to being a spoiled brat and I'm never reasonable. If sister doesn't want to give it to me now, I can ask for it later. But if sister doesn't give it to me at all, then I'll just have to snatch it from her!"
