—It was already late at night when He Yunxiao returned home from Linxuan Palace. Because he had to rush to the Fan Mansion in the morning, after returning home, He Yunxiao hastily tidied up and went to bed.

The main character, Chu Fan, makes his daily morning visit to the Fan residence in order to see General Fan Yu. He Yunxiao had no choice but to stay with Chu Fan at the Fan residence every morning. Chu Fan sat in the living room and He Yunxiao sat in the study.

But they did not have the same purpose.

Chu Fan was there to meet Fan Yu and get clues about the tragic family murder. He Yunxiao was there to capture Fan Yu’s daughter, the young lady of the Fan residence. The teaching master of the Antler Academy. The most talented girl in Yinjing, and the heroine of the original book, Fan Ziruo.

Because last night, he approached Nanzhu to admit (ambiguous) his mistake, plus the subsequent pulse-taking, trial of medicine, spanking, making medicine, and finally eating dinner. It was very late at night when we left the palace, past 3 o’clock, all in the early hours of the morning.

He Yunxiao had a late dinner, and before he went to bed he was thinking about Nanzhu and the redemption of Jiang’s sister, so he had come home in the early hours of the morning and fell asleep even later.

Fortunately, he had no classes in the morning, so he could get up later, as long as he arrived earlier than Chu Fan.

Unfortunately, He Yunxiao did not even manage to arrive earlier than Chu Fan.

As the morning sun shone on the ground, the dew drops that had fallen in the morning shone brightly.

He Yunxiao pushed open the door to the Fan residence study and saw two familiar figures already sitting in familiar positions.

Fan Ziruo, was holding a book in her hand, smiling quietly and gently at He Yunxiao. Chu Chu, on the other hand, folded her arms around her chest and closed her eyes, and only when He Yunxiao turned his gaze on her did she perfunctorily open her eyes and give him a look. It was both perfunctory and not perfunctory at the same time.

Quiet and beautiful.

He Yunxiao smiled and said, “Good morning, Miss Ziruo..”

Fan Ziruo glanced at the closed-eyed Chu Xiaoxiao before rising and bending slightly to return the greeting, “Good morning, Young Master.”

He Yunxiao then said, “Good morning, Miss Chu.”

As if she hadn’t heard him, Chu Chu closed her eyes and ignored him.

He Yunxiao was not taken aback by Chu Chu’s attitude, nor did he care. This kind of person who ignores everything, who stands tall, who doesn’t see you, but secretly cares about you in a twisted way, is Chu Chu.

The day Chu Chu becomes like Nanzhu, sitting on a chair, blinking her big eyes and greeting you meekly, that’s what will take He Yunxiao by surprise.

He did not care about Chu Chu’s attitude, so he closed the door after greeting her and went into the study to his place.

When there was Chu Chu around, Fan Ziruo would not discuss novels with He Yunxiao, so the relationship on the surface looked a little more distant.

“Young master, as usual you will read by yourself today, and if there is something you don’t know, ask Ziruo again?”

He Yunxiao said, “Yes.”

Fan Ziruo said, “Good.” Then she gently turned her head, looked at Chu Xiaoxiao, and asked, “Miss Xiaoxiao?”

Chu Chu ignored Fan Ziruo.

In her heart, Fan Ziruo felt that Chu Xiaoxia was so devoted to her brother Chu Fan’s feelings that she would not even bother with herself as a woman, so she could not help but respect her a little more.

Although Chu Xiaoxiao seemed to be sitting close to young master He, when she thought that she wouldn’t even bother with herself, much less with He Yunxiao, Fan Ziruo didn’t think it mattered whether Chu Xiaoxiao sat next to He Yunxiao.

So she said, “If there is anything you don’t understand when you are reading, you can ask me too.”

Chu Chu continued to ignore it.

Because He Yunxiao had explained Chu Xiaoxiao’s character before, Fan Ziruo didn’t take her ignorance to heart. After saying that, she smiled at He Yunxiao and then concentrated on her book.

When He Yunxiao waited for Fan Ziruo to start reading, he transmitted his voice to Chu Chu while pretending to read a book.

He Yunxiao: Good morning, Lord Chu Chu.

Chu Chu: Hmm.

He Yunxiao: Did you sleep well last night, my lord?

Chu Chu: Yes.

He Yunxiao: Did you have breakfast then, my lord?

Chu Chu: Yes.

He Yunxiao: Oh, isn’t My Lord going to read a book?

Chu Chu finally stopped crossing her arms over her chest and pretending to sleep with her eyes closed, but opened her eyes, dropped both hands, and changed her posture to read a book.

Chu Chu: You talk a lot of nonsense, what do you want to say?

He Yunxiao naturally wanted to ask when she would be able to start passing on her martial arts.

However, the clever He Yunxiao knew that Chu Chu would definitely not honestly agree to the transfer of kung fu, so he simply followed the example of the last time and did a preemptive strike.

First, he took Chu Chu’s little hand, and then he said something else!

On the surface, he was quietly reading a book, but in fact, fierce fighting was about to start on under the desk.

He Yunxiao’s left hand quietly touched Chu Chu’s small hand. His fingertips lightly touched it, and the small hand noticeably trembled for a while. Then, like a hungry tiger pouncing on the small hand, the large hand that had been building up strength for a long time pounced on it.

He grabbed it and held it firmly, so that there was no chance of it struggling to escape.

In fact, it was easy for Chu Chu to shake off He Yunxiao. He Yunxiao was only playing on the fact that Chu Chu did not want to expose her martial arts skills in front of Fan Ziruo.

However, what He Yunxiao did not expect was that Chu Chu’s hand only trembled when he touched it for the first time, and after it was grabbed by him, it lay silently in the palm of his hand. Even when he loosened his grip a little and let go of the force, the little hand did not intend on leaving.

Strange.

Even Nanzhu wasn’t this obedient.

What was wrong with Chu Chu?

He Yunxiao waited until he had grabbed the hand before he transmitted his voice to Chu Chu and explained: I want to say, Lord Chu Chu, is it convenient for you to transmit your power to me?

Chu Chu gave him a look and said through transmission: If you beg me, I will pass on my martial arts to you.

He Yunxiao felt extremely strange.

In the past, Chu Chu also spoke like this, but before speaking, she definitely would not accept being held by her hand honestly.

The point is, it’s not a matter of passing on martial arts or not!

It is: Lord Chu Chu, who has never liked to be touched by others physically, is now having her hand held by me.

Shouldn’t Chu Chu first ask me to let go of her hand before talking about anything?

Why is she only mentioning passing on martial arts now, not to release her hand?

Could it be that I could keep holding her hand even without passing on martial arts?

Impossible! It’s absolutely impossible!

There must be a mistake somewhere!

He Yunxiao tried to pass on his voice and asked: Lord Chu Chu, can I get the chance to pass on martial arts without asking you?

Chu Chu: No. You have to beg me.

As He Yunxiao transmitted his voice, Chu Chu’s hand remained held by him.

He even, experimentally, rubbed it a little.

It felt wonderful!

But even after doing so, this little hand did not intend on leaving.

He Yunxiao recalled Chu Chu’s words and once again transmitted his voice to ask: Lord Chu Chu, will you transmit my martial arts to me as long as I beg you?

Chu Chu: I keep my word.

He Yunxiao naturally knew in his heart what kind of promise Chu Chu’s “promise will be honoured” was.

But he also knew that Chu Chu did not like the kind of person who begged for mercy from her, but rather liked the kind of man who was firm and hard-headed, “Don’t bully the poor ones”.

However, today is a different story. In the past, when Chu Chu had just met him, his favorability was low, and we weren’t familiar with each other. Now they know each other much better, and her favorability level has reached 40, which is not particularly low.

To pass on martial arts, He Yunxiao planned to risk begging Chu Chu once, so he transmitted his voice: Please, I beg Lord Chu Chu to pass on martial arts to me.

Chu Chu was afraid that He Yunxiao would reverse his decision and immediately agreed: Yes.

He Yunxiao looked at Chu Chu in amazement. Not only did she not hate him when he begged her, but she also agreed very quickly. She gave the impression that she was like a young lady on a trip, standing on the carriage and not getting down, waiting for someone to bring her a wooden ladder to get down from the carriage early in the morning. As soon as the ladder was in place, the young lady naturally got out of the carriage.

Guesses and feelings might not be right, but pure inner strength could not fool anyone.

In He Yunxiao’s grip, Chu Chu’s small hand, a wisp of inner energy, pure to the extreme, was then transmitted after she agreed.

This internal energy was perfectly controlled by Chu Chu and drilled into He Yunxiao’s body without a single drop.
