He Yuanhao is tall and strong, with sharp eyes and a piercing gaze. Although he is nearly fifty, his handsome appearance remains undiminished. It can be said that He Yunxiao's good looks are inseparable from the excellent genes of his parents.
At this moment, He Yuanhao was sitting in the main seat, holding a wooden stick and striking the ground.
"What's wrong?"
"You shouldn't fight with others."
"You're talking nonsense!" He Yuanhao cursed on the spot.
"I heard that Chu kid is a ninth-rank official? Don't think I don't know, you love to cheat and shirk your duties. You wouldn't dare fight him even if you had a hundred lives! He's probably just some accomplice you hired from somewhere, faking a fight for show. Is it all for that Du Yinyun?"
He Yunxiao was shocked. His father was indeed his father. Although the process he guessed was very strange, the result was unexpectedly accurate.
He couldn't refute Du Yinyun's statement, since it was true. He only argued about the "fight," saying, "Who said I wouldn't dare fight a ninth-rank official? Tonight I fought to the death, covered in wounds, and I didn't bring shame to the He family at all!"
"Okay! Where are all your wounds?"
He Yunxiao sneered and confidently unbuttoned his clothes, revealing his upper body wrapped in bandages.
He Yuanhao wasn't surprised at all and said, "Continue."
He Yunxiao was certainly not afraid.
Continue then. Today I'll show you that your son is no longer the dissolute playboy who only knew how to drink and seduce. I've been completely transformed!
With the bandage half untied, He Yunxiao's hand froze in mid-air.
He Yuanhao approached, weighing the wooden stick in his hand, and asked, "Why aren't you untied? Are you completely unharmed?"
Looking at his smooth skin, He Yunxiao felt a million curses running through his mind.
Soul Eater Pill is outrageous! It'll kill you so quickly!
He explained weakly, "I said I had no scars because my injuries healed very quickly, do you believe me?"
In the middle of the night, a scream and General He's angry curses rang out from the He residence.
"I wouldn't say this to ordinary people! But General Du is your father's comrade-in-arms! Now that his daughter is in trouble, you still want to take advantage of her misfortune!"
"Father, we like each other!"
"A toad lusting after a swan! Aside from your looks, which you inherited from your father, what else about you could possibly make a girl interested in you? She might only exchange a few words with you because of your father!"
...
He Yunxiao lay face down on the bed, the blanket covering his waist, and the bruises on his back reappeared.
Aunt Zhang Jingxian held the ointment, sighed softly, and carefully applied it to He Yunxiao.
He Yunxiao got a beating from his father, but to be honest, he was quite happy.
This was not because he had any particular fetish, but because he realized that his father was still thinking about Du Lie's past relationship.
It's worth noting that in the original novel, "Girl, I Just Want to Cultivate," Chu Tianzhu's father, He Yuanhao, was the prime suspect in her murder.
This possibility can now be largely ruled out.
If her father was the murderer, then he wouldn't still be protecting Du Yinyun.
Actually, He Yunxiao hadn't believed before that his father had harmed General Chu, but after receiving strong evidence today, his mood brightened considerably.
"Ouch! Auntie, be gentle."
He Yunxiao didn't know why his aunt had suddenly increased her strength, so he had no choice but to beg her for mercy.
“Xiao’er, your aunt usually protects you, but today I think your father did the right thing.”
Zhang Jingxian was verbally unforgiving towards He Yunxiao, but her hands quietly became gentle.
He Yunxiao felt the coolness from the wound on his back and couldn't understand it more and more. How could such good parents and aunts raise such a bastard like the original owner?
It's definitely the author deliberately trying to make the protagonist hateful!
He cursed the author of "Girl, I Only Want to Cultivate" in his mind again, then laughed and said, "Auntie, I really didn't do anything to Miss Du. How come even you don't believe me!"
Zhang Jingxian snorted, "Your aunt always believes you, but how many times have you lied to her?"
He Yunxiao said without any hesitation, "From now on, I will never lie to my aunt again."
Zhang Jingxian hesitated for a moment, then tentatively said, "Xiao'er, as a man, it's understandable that you like girls and concubines. However, our family does have a noble title, and it's a bit difficult for you to bring honor to your father. Let's try to avoid causing trouble in the future; we can't set a bad example for the people of Daqi, can we?"
What do you mean by making my dad proud is a bit of a stretch?
Suppressing his complaints, He Yunxiao really wanted to agree after seeing his aunt's earnest persuasion.
But he really couldn't agree!
The poison in his body hadn't been cured yet, and Chu Xiaoxiao was still eyeing him menacingly. If he didn't cause trouble or covet other girls, he'd be waiting to die! No, he couldn't just wait to die. He knew Chu Xiaoxiao's secret of being the best martial artist in the world; if he didn't use it, Chu Xiaoxiao would definitely not let him go.
Those targeted by Chu Fan can survive by begging for mercy, but those targeted by Chu Xiaoxiao will only provoke her disgust and die even faster by begging.
My aunt is so good to me, and I can't refuse her.
With this in mind, He Yunxiao simply said, "Auntie, as the saying goes, 'settling down and starting a career' means starting a family. If you want me to work hard, you should at least find me a wife, right?"
Even He Yunxiao himself knew that this was a shameless excuse to fob off his aunt.
In reality, there is no necessary connection between striving for success and starting a family.
But times have changed, and when Zhang Jingxian heard He Yunxiao say this, she actually thought it was feasible.
Yunxiao is twenty this year, a prime age for marriage. In ordinary families, children of this age are already running around. Moreover, settling down and establishing a career is no joke; it's better to settle down first and then build a career. Having a daughter to keep an eye on Yunxiao is always more effective than having her say it herself. After all, her aunt is her aunt; she can't whisper in his ear, but she also can't say anything too harsh.
"Xiao'er, which girl do you like? Your aunt will be your matchmaker."
