Jiang Huai’s ears were already buzzing with the sound of dings.
Around the time Wen Fufu, pressing close to his ear, said that if he was willing to marry her older sister, she would also willingly marry along with her sister, his system had already started issuing tasks.
[Wen Wanwan and Wen Fufu have depended on each other for nineteen years. The two sisters have long considered each other the most important people in their lives. As Wen Wanwan’s biological sister, Wen Fufu’s feelings for you are particularly complex.]
[On one hand, she desperately hopes you are a gentleman and can stay by her sister’s side, bringing her happiness.]
[On the other hand, she also hopes you are a scoundrel, a scoundrel only after her sister’s beauty, so she can persuade her sister to leave you. This way, her sister will belong to her alone again. She is filled with jealousy towards you, jealous that you can be so intimate with her sister, and even harbors a sliver of hatred, believing you have stolen most of her sister’s love.]
[Therefore, she tries to provoke you in every way, expecting your reaction. A young girl’s heart is especially contradictory and complex. She hopes you are a gentleman who ignores her provocations, and yet she also hopes you are a beastly pervert who truly bullies her… so she would have a reason to complain to her sister.]
[And who are you? Jiang Xiaohu, who has done every evil deed! There’s no reason to let a duck that’s delivered to your door fly away again, is there? While she harbors such thoughts, pinch her little feet first, and use a weak spiritual qi to stimulate her acupoints, making her body weak and unable to muster any strength. Then, pretend to be enticed by her, letting her take the initiative to kiss your lips. After taking all the advantages, pretend to be innocent so she gains nothing.]
[Wen Fufu is right about one thing. If she had a choice, Wen Wanwan wouldn’t mind her sisters sharing a husband, because she believes you would treat her sister well. How can you miss such an opportunity to have both sisters?]
[Mission 1: Pinch Wen Fufu’s little feet to make her body soft. Reward: Low-grade Experience Scroll * 2.]
[Mission 2: Take both Wen Wanwan and Wen Fufu into your harem, willing to become your playthings. Reward: High-grade Experience Scroll * 5, Yin-Yang Joy of Union Secret Method.]
Jiang Huai merely glanced at the tasks and dragged them to his to-do list.
He admitted that at many times, his heart harbored many despicable thoughts. For example, one day he wanted to push his Master down and bully her, or one day he wanted to take both Luo Yueguan and Luo Qingyu to his bed. Even just now, seeing Wen Fufu so shy and flustered, yet deliberately acting coy, a sliver of evil thought had indeed flashed through his mind.
But many things are just thoughts. There’s no harm in just thinking about them, as long as you don’t actually do them.
“Brother-in-law is so fierce,” Wen Fufu’s body shied back slightly.
“That’s just how fierce I am,” Jiang Huai looked at the girl in front of him. “It’s late, go back to bed.”
“Brother-in-law, carry me back to my room.”
“Are your legs broken?”
“The wine from dinner is still affecting me, my body is so soft I can’t even walk steadily.”
Wen Fufu’s eyes gave Jiang Huai a lingering look. She obediently stood up herself, carefully tidied her skirt hem, looked at Jiang Huai opposite her, and muttered in a low voice, “Sister’s dress today… it was so beautiful.”
“Then you can go buy one too,” Jiang Huai took out a spirit stone note worth one hundred and handed it to Wen Fufu.
“But what if Sister gets angry when she knows I asked you for a dress?”
“Just say I forced it on you as pocket money, and you couldn’t refuse.”
“I also have my eye on two pretty dresses from Ziyun Pavilion,” Wen Fufu winked at Jiang Huai.
Jiang Huai took out another spirit stone note worth one thousand and handed it to Wen Fufu. “If it’s not enough, quietly tell me again, and I’ll give it to you.”
Wen Fufu looked at the spirit stone note worth one thousand, stunned for a moment, then clutched it in her hand. Her eyes sparkled slightly. “Brother-in-law is really kind.”
I hope you really feel that way in your heart.
Jiang Huai smiled helplessly, “Hurry back to sleep.”
But Wen Fufu suddenly hopped in front of Jiang Huai, her eyes blinking innocently at him. “Brother-in-law, carry me.”
“Are you secretly thinking about me taking advantage of you so you can complain to Sister?”
“How could I?!” Wen Fufu’s voice suddenly held a hint of guilt, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Then she muttered softly, “It’s just… I’ve never been carried by a man before. I want to know what it feels like… I’m just curious.”
“What’s so curious about that?”
“Books say that when you’re being held, your heart beats faster and your body feels warm and fuzzy, as if you’re about to melt away…”
“Everything in books is a lie. A Mu Mu is an idiot.”
“You’re not allowed to defile A Mu Mu!” Wen Fufu put her hands on her hips, her eyes wide, looking very serious.
Jiang Huai looked at her helplessly. Explaining it now would be too troublesome. He wanted to go back early, so he reluctantly nodded, “Okay, okay.”
“So, Brother-in-law, can you carry me back?” Wen Fufu began to act spoiled again, her voice soft and her eyes full of wronged pleading, like a puppy wagging its tail, waiting for you to pat its head.
Jiang Huai looked into her eyes helplessly. “Come on.”
He spread his arms. Wen Fufu almost instantly rushed over, jumping into his arms. Her snow-white legs tightly clasped his waist, and her slender arms wrapped around his neck. The distance between them became incredibly close, as if she were hanging onto Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai’s hands were a bit unsure where to go, but her legs were clasped so tightly. Where was there any sign of her body being weak from drinking?
He helplessly and gently embraced the girl’s waist and walked towards her room. It was only a few steps away, yet Wen Fufu’s eyes quietly gazed at his eyes, while Jiang Huai turned his face away and looked at nothing.
“Brother-in-law, why aren’t you looking at me?”
“Because your face is blocking the way. I need to see where I’m going.”
“No, Brother-in-law, look at me.”
“Why?”
“Books say that if two people are destined, their hearts will feel a connection when they look into each other’s eyes.”
“Those things are just to trick ignorant girls like you,” Jiang Huai said helplessly and turned his head, meeting Wen Fufu’s gaze for a few seconds. His heart was as still as ever, but Wen Fufu’s eyes were like an innocent little deer, full of curiosity as she gazed into his eyes.
“Did you feel any heart palpitations?”
“No.”
“Now do you believe me?” Jiang Huai replied helplessly. But the next moment, as he took another step forward, his foot accidentally hit a step. His body swayed slightly. This movement caused Wen Fufu, who was hanging onto him, to panic. Then her body began to fall backward. Her legs were still tightly clasped around Jiang Huai’s waist, and Jiang Huai, losing his balance, fell down with her.
The only thing he could do was move his hand faster, placing it under Wen Fufu’s head to prevent her back from hitting the ground directly.
But at this moment, his body was also pressed against Wen Fufu.
The girl’s chest was pressed tightly against his chest, soft and bouncy. Her legs, which had been tightly clasped around his waist, were released in her panic. But as she gradually regained her senses, Wen Fufu quietly lifted her legs and clasped them around Jiang Huai again.
Damn, damn, damn! How could such a cliché plot, which even A Mu Mu wouldn’t write in a book, happen in the real world?
Jiang Huai looked at Wen Fufu’s panicked eyes. Their eyes met at this moment. Fortunately, his hand was cushioning Wen Fufu’s head, so he subconsciously asked, “Does it hurt?”
“It’s okay.”
“Then unclamp your legs.”
“Okay…”
Wen Fufu guiltily released her legs. Jiang Huai then managed to stand up and extended his hand to her.
Their eyes met in mid-air. At that moment, Wen Fufu suddenly froze for a moment. She looked at the concern in his eyes, as if feeling an indescribable surge in her chest at that instant.
Soon, she took his hand, stood up, and lightly dusted off her skirt. It was only a couple of steps, and Jiang Huai opened her room door for her. “Go back and sleep obediently.”
Wen Fufu finally walked towards her room obediently. Jiang Huai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but as he turned to leave, he heard Wen Fufu calling from behind.
“Brother-in-law…”
“Hmm?” Jiang Huai turned to look at her.
“Thank you,” Wen Fufu suddenly said softly.
“Thank me for what?” Jiang Huai asked, confused.
“Thank you for being willing to treat my illness, and thank you for being good to my sister.”
“What’s there to thank for? Speaking of which, the medicine I gave you last time is almost finished, right?”
“Mm-hmm.”
“I’ll refine next month’s medicine for you tomorrow, along with the medicinal liquid for massage.”
“Then can I ask Brother-in-law to give me a massage?”
“I can ask your sister to spank your butt, hard.”
Wen Fufu immediately covered her little butt with her hands and stuck out her tongue at Jiang Huai. “You’re acting fierce again… Sister wouldn’t bear to hit Fufu.”
“I think Wanwan is quite willing to educate children when it’s time.”
“I’m not a child! I’m only half an incense stick younger than Sister,” Wen Fufu stood with her hands behind her back, her slender waist held straight. Her slender clavicle seemed to glow under the light of the Firefly Stone. Her snow-white legs under the skirt hem were plump and slender, an almost dazzling contrast to the black skirt.
“If you were more sensible, no one would treat you like a child.”
“Then I’d rather remain a child,” Wen Fufu winked at Jiang Huai. “That way, no matter how unreasonable I am, Brother-in-law won’t be angry with me.”
“Actually, I don’t mind spanking you now and telling your sister tomorrow, acting on fait accompli.” Jiang Huai made a gesture as if to roll up his sleeve. Wen Fufu quickly reached out and closed the door tightly, leaving only a small gap. Her eyes looked at Jiang Huai with feigned grievance. “I was wrong! Brother-in-law, you should go back and sleep well.”
“I know. You sleep well too.”
“But what if I can’t sleep because I miss Brother-in-law?”
“I’ll just spank you then.” Jiang Huai took a step forward, and the door was firmly shut by Wen Fufu. From behind the door came the girl’s pleading voice, “I’ll sleep now… Goodnight, Brother-in-law.”
“Goodnight.”
Jiang Huai turned and walked away. Wen Fufu opened her room door and watched Jiang Huai’s figure disappear into the courtyard through the crack. Only then did she close the door again and return to her bed, but she couldn’t help but toss and turn several times.
After a long, long time, Wen Fufu’s body was curled up in the quilt. Her little head looked at the ceiling, her lips gently bitten.
She seemed to truly have insomnia.
