Chapter 57: Seducing Xiao Yi (1)
After Sun Jiaojiao tested the Hanxiang Wan and worked up a fragrant sweat, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Her cold quickly healed. And that Doctor Zhang, who "shows his head but hides his tail," extracted a large sum from Minister Sun and went off to roam the four seas again.
One day, Sun Jiaojiao was leaning in the garden, bored, passing the time by admiring the flowers, when she suddenly saw Xiao Yi in the distance, scolding some ignorant servants.
The Minister's Residence had undergone a major change. The newly bought servants hadn't been properly trained, and most of their work was not up to standard.
The moment Sun Jiaojiao saw Xiao Yi's ice-block face straighten to scold someone, she thought he was especially handsome and charismatic. She couldn't help but take a few steps forward, watching him while idly breaking willow branches by the lake.
Handsome. That ice-block face... was just so handsome.
Sun Jiaojiao was busy fangirling. She accidentally used a little too much force, the willow branch snapped, and her foot slipped, sending her falling into the lake.
The sudden feeling of suffocation made Sun Jiaojiao instinctively flail, but the more she flailed, the more water she choked on. She even forgot to call for "Help."
Just as she was struggling for her life in the water, a pair of strong hands wrapped around her waist, pulled her directly out of the water, and flew her to the shore.
Sun Jiaojiao desperately clung to the man's thigh.
"Young Miss, it's all right."
The man's voice was cold and severe. Even though they were words of comfort, it was as if he was disgusted, unwilling to say a single word more.
Sun Jiaojiao came to her senses, looked up, and saw... it was Xiao Yi!
Sigh. This was the first time she had heard Xiao Yi's voice. She never thought that this guy not only looked like an ice block, but his voice also radiated a "do not approach," abstinent aura.
She had the urge to tease him.
"Thank you~" Sun Jiaojiao deliberately cooed, reaching out to strip his clothes. "Aiya, you're all wet. You have to take them off quickly or you'll catch a cold..."
Before Sun Jiaojiao's nimble hands could pull off his wet clothes, Xiao Yi swatted her hands away in disgust and took a step back. "Men and women should not touch. Young Miss, please conduct yourself with respect."
"There are priorities. Getting sick is a serious matter," Sun Jiaojiao insisted.
"Young Miss, please conduct yourself with respect!"
Xiao Yi shot Sun Jiaojiao a glare, then directly used his lightness skill and flew away from the back garden, leaving a dripping-wet Sun Jiaojiao standing there, sulking.
"Fuck!" Sun Jiaojiao was furious. "This Young Miss has no self-respect, so you're the only one with self-respect, is that it? Tsk! You think I'm interested in you?"
The more she thought, the angrier she got.
This Xiao Yi... not only did he ignore her charm, he even rolled his eyes at her?
Sun Jiaojiao could not tolerate this.
No matter what, this Xiao Yi... she had to get him. She refused to believe there was a man she couldn't hook. If there really was a Liu Xiahui who could hold a woman in his lap without being aroused, it must be because the woman wasn't slutty enough.
Sun Jiaojiao, feeling unlucky, swayed her little waist and went back to her room to change.
When Yu'er had a tongue, Sun Jiaojiao thought she was too noisy, a little too talkative. Now that she didn't have a tongue, Sun Jiaojiao felt that having a mute by her side... a lot of the fun was gone.
When Yu'er saw her return, soaking wet, she was terrified. She quickly dried her body, changed her clothes, and even steeped a pot of hot tea and brought a few pastries. This truly moved Sun Jiaojiao a little.
"Yu'er, come!" Sun Jiaojiao beckoned to Yu'er with her finger. "Is there a man you like? This Young Miss will make the decision for you. How about I arrange a marriage?"
