Chapter 55
Chu Fan and Chu Xiaoxiao’s small courtyard was not very big.
There were only seven or eight rooms in all.
Apart from the kitchen and the living room, there were only three rooms that could actually be used as bedrooms.
Chu Xiaoxiao’s house happened to be at the innermost part of the courtyard, while Chu Fan was at the outermost part.
He Yunxiao didn’t ask why this was, but he could probably guess.
Chu Fan practiced his sword like a madman and often practiced it all night. He was probably afraid of disturbing Chu Xiaoxiao, so he deliberately lived far away from her.
This was convenient for He Yunxiao.
He Yunxiao had no doubt that after he had tasted the antidote, Chu Xiaoxiao would give himself another beating.
There was no escaping Chu Xiaoxiao’s violent beating, and I was only afraid that when he made a noise, Chu Fan would rush over to protect his sister. Now that he was far away from Chu Fan, he would have a chance to open the window and slip away.
I can’t just wait until Chu Fan rushes in to protect my sister and then beat myself up, can I?
Although I am the villain, this is not the way to be a villain.
Chu Xiaoxiao led He Yunxiao to her room. He did not care to admire her bedroom, and hurriedly gave priority to finding windows, beams, and various places where he could hide.
Chu Xiaoxiao waited until He Yunxiao had entered the room, then lit the candles and closed the door.
She sat down at the tea table, and held out her right hand to He Yunxiao, the teeth marks on her hand still clearly visible, but much better than at the beginning.
“Hurry up.”
Chu Chu urged, turning her face away again, to look into the empty part of the room after she had finished speaking.
When He Yunxiao saw her like this, she didn’t look like her “master” or the “number one in the world”, she looked like a child who was afraid of injections.
Therefore, He intentionally did not taste the antidote, wanted to tease her bit.
When she was confused and turned her head around, He Yunxiao “bit” her right in front of her.
“Ah.”
There was a short cry of surprise.
He Yunxiao felt funny in his heart.
Chu Xiaoxiao was really just the world’s number one in martial arts, with a heart that didn’t match her strength at all. Although she always had a haughty, cold and decisive look, when it came to such things, she was completely no good.
Not even sister Du could compare.
Chu Chu frowned tightly. Eyes wide open, she watched He Yunxiao use his right hand.
A warm and tingling sensation kept coming from his right hand.
This feeling was like poison, causing her originally steady breathing to subconsciously speed up.
Chu Chu recalled that back then, when He Yunxiao had bitten straight over, she hadn’t even felt this sensation herself. At that time, her internal energy was smooth, her breathing was as normal, and there was only a hint of pain, inconsequential, coming from her hand.
Now, He Yunxiao had clearly not used a single ounce of strength, and his movements were gentle, but why was her breathing disordered? Even the internal flow of energy was not as smooth as before.
Chu Chu refused to believe it, as she steadied her mind and held onto her energy. Then she closed her eyes and practiced her internal martial arts.
At Chu Xiaoxiao’s level, all martial arts had already been practiced to the extreme, so if she continued to practice, there would be no more breakthroughs.
Now, she was just trying to compete with He Yunxiao.
He Yunxiao detoxified the poison in a muffled voice, going back and forth a few times and almost finished with the antidote.
Then he looked up.
What a piece of work!
Chu Chu was actually practicing her martial arts!
Who are you insulting?
Mocking me for being lacking in skills?
Not to say blushing with shyness. At least you have to be looking at me with a disgusted face, right?
He Yunxiao felt so insulted that he decided to prove his strength and let Chu Chu know what it meant to be connected by five fingers.
The battle of the five fingers began.
He Yunxiao intended to start by bullying the weakest first.
At first, he only adopted the tactic of encirclement, first, making a trial attack.
Unexpectedly, Chu Chu couldn’t hold out in the first wave of attacks. Her little hand visibly shook and she subconsciously retreated.
Before He Yunxiao could launch another attack, Chu Chu’s words came through with a murderous intent.
“Is there an antidote on the finger too?”
At this point, He Yunxiao could only retreat.
After all, if he didn’t retreat, there was nothing he could say, right?
“That’s not true.” He Yunxiao replied.
Chu Chu didn’t say anything. She got up and went to wash her hands, and after washing them, she sat back down again without any haste.
“Have you thought of how to cunningly defend yourself with me?”
He Yunxiao silently recalled the guidelines for dealing with Chu Xiaoxiao in his mind. To be precise, it was the rules for dealing with Chu Chu.
First, one could not give in to weakness. Secondly, no being tough. Third, be reasonable.
He Yunxiao said, “I don’t want to defend myself, because there’s really no antidote on the finger.”
When Chu Chu saw that He Yunxiao had taken advantage of the situation and was still so hard-headed, her face turned darker visibly.
“Very well.” She said.
He Yunxiao said, ‘I can’t be hard-headed.’ “Although I don’t want to argue, but it’s a matter of necessity.”
“Say it. If you don’t tell me the truth, I will not spare you.”
He Yunxiao said reasonably, “Everyone knows that I, He Yunxiao, am a lustful man. If I were to remain indifferent when such a beautiful woman as Master Chu Chu is placed in front of me, would I not be no different from the eunuchs in the palace?”
Chu Chu looked at He Yunxiao and said with a cold smile, “Are you blaming me for being so beautiful?”
He Yunxiao continued ‘reasonably’, ” Master Chu Chu was blessed with beauty by the heavens. I couldn’t hold back for a moment and took advantage of you a little. However, as you are so generous with your heart, I am sure you will not take it too seriously.”
Chu Chu frowned and said, “Where did you learn these words from?”
When He Yunxiao saw Chu Chu’s tone softening, he immediately understood that she was no longer angry.
He then continued to brag, “If Master Chu Chu doesn’t like it, He Yunxiao will never speak like that again.”
Chu Chu said, “If I tell you to go to hell, will you do so?”
“How can Master Chu Chu allow me to die? I still have to work for my master in future.”
“What kind of work?”
“Aren’t you going to the Fan Academy with Chu Fan tomorrow? Don’t you know that Fan Yu’s daughter, Fan Ziruo, most beautiful women in Yinjing, and her fame is only greater than that of Du Huaqui.”
Chu Chu said in a cold voice, “Tomorrow you will wait outside the Fan House, and when I ring the bell, you will come in.”
Remembering the pain of ringing the bell, He Yunxiao hastily said, “Just ring it once! Please don’t ring it more than once.”
Although Chu Xiaoxiao herself only intended to ring the bell once, she would not “agree” with He Yunxiao’s words. A senior person should behave like a senior person.
She said, “Go back. Don’t be late tomorrow.”
When He Yunxiao saw that Chu Chu was hurrying him away, he didn’t force himself to stay.
He went out of the door and walked to the wall before using his lightness to cross the courtyard wall, and was gone.
After Chu Chu saw He Yunxiao leave, she listened intently to the movements around her and made sure that no one was around.
Then, gently and slowly, she put her index finger into her mouth and held it there.
She frowned, wondering why she could not recreate the feeling she had just felt.
Could it be because He Yunxiao is a man and I am not?
As Chu Chu thought about this, she became more and more confused.
I thought that with my martial arts skills, I had already used my body’s abilities to the limit. I didn’t expect that the body’s secrets were much more than that.
She didn’t have time to think about it in detail when Chu Fan’s voice came through.
“Xiaoxiao, are you free? Brother wants to talk to you about something.”
Xiaoxiao immediately took over from Chu Chu and ran out in a leap of faith.
She jumped in front of Chu Fan and said happily, “Brother, I was in a bad mood just now, I didn’t know how to talk for a while, so don’t take it to heart.”
As she was about to hug Chu Fan’s arm, but to her surprise, Chu Fan directly raised his arm up and rejected her.
“Xiaoxiao, it’s been ten years since we met. Time has passed in a flash, and you are already a big girl before i noticed.”
Chu Fan entered the room and sat down in the seat He Yunxiao had taken before, and although there was residual heat, he just assumed that Chu Xiaoxiao had sat there before and paid no attention.
Looking at Chu Xiaoxiao, who was seated on the other side of the tea table, Chu Fan finally voiced the doubts he had been having for the past few days.
“Xiaoxiao, tell brother the truth, do you like, He Yunxiao?”
