Chapter 569 - 280: The Spring Festival Agreement; Desired Prey
"What do you mean it’s not related? You’re so fickle-minded, do you think they will accept that?!"
You Su chuckled softly and poured He Kongyue another cup, hoping to calm him down:
"Mr. He, you seem a bit extreme. Your sister once taught me a saying—however big your ambition is, your ability must match. I admire your sister, but it doesn’t mean we will definitely become Dao companions.
I will work towards this direction, but when I realize it will affect my relationship with her, I will hide or even discard this thought. Does Mr. He intend to restrict even whom I admire?"
After speaking, he took a small sip of fragrant tea, "As for them... that’s a matter of the future. I believe they will get along peacefully."
He Kongyue rolled his eyes repeatedly, really not in the mood for tea. He just sighed, wondering how there could be such obstinate people who wouldn’t heed advice in this world?
"With so many women in the world, why do you have to like an old and cold woman?!"
You Su shook his head inwardly, thinking it should be ’experienced and warm’ instead.
"It’s Mr. He’s deep misunderstanding of her. Have you ever considered that maybe it’s not she doesn’t want to come home, but she dares not? Just because she knows you all dislike her, she doesn’t dare to..."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
He Kongyue was extremely agitated. Ever since she was young, people around her had told her that woman was a cold calamity star, bringing harm to everyone close to her.
She’s not her sister, and even less worthy of being part of the He Family.
A few words from You Su couldn’t possibly shatter her ingrained perception.
Seeing You Su so poisoned by her, He Kongyue’s eyes suddenly flashed with determination as she looked at You Su, becoming even more resolved to save him.
She had to snatch You Su away from that woman!
This was not just to save You Su, but also the harshest revenge against that calamity star!
"Mr. He, please calm down first..."
Seeing such resistance from the other party, You Su knew he couldn’t rush it.
"I am very calm." He Kongyue actually replied in a calm tone and then stood up, "Let’s leave this matter for now. I don’t want that woman to affect our friendship. Let’s go, see my father. He knows you’re here."
You Su nodded slightly, which was also what he had hoped for.
Being honest with He Kongyue was one, not wanting to hide his feelings for Master any longer, and two, hoping to open a gap for Master and He Kongyue to interact.
"Glad Mr. He understands, let’s go see your father."
Saying this, You Su was about to stand up.
"Wait a moment."
He Kongyue suddenly stopped him and then took out a variety of items from the Qiankun Bag.
A turquoise dress, a jade hairpin, and several palettes of colorful rouge...
They were all women’s items.
You Su’s nose twitched slightly, smelling the unique fragrance of women’s cosmetics, his face immediately became awkward:
"Mr. He, what’s this for..."
"My dad may be a fool, but he’s not blind, it’s best to be prepared for anything."
"Isn’t this a bit much..."
"He’s the father of your beloved. If he finds out you’re deceiving him, he’ll be very angry, his health isn’t great. To understand your beloved more, and for... me, I can only ask you to be wronged for a bit."
Although He Kongyue didn’t mean to threaten, it was indeed necessary for You Su to cross-dress.
You Su coughed lightly and had no choice but to start removing his armor.
He Kongyue blushed, quietly turned her body away, but kept sneaking glances:
"Change into the dress first, then I’ll put on some light makeup for you."
"Does Mr. He know how to do makeup?"
He Kongyue naturally wouldn’t admit it’s her hobby in her spare time, only awkwardly saying, "I haven’t eaten pork, but I’ve seen pigs run..."
This was of course her saying she loitered in brothels, inevitably learning some makeup skills from the good sisters there.
The dress seemed tailored for You Su, fitting perfectly, and the various accessories were cleverly designed. With already outstanding features, a touch of powder transformed him from a sturdy young man into a graceful and lovely young lady.
He Kongyue kept eyeing him, a subtle smile on her lips, very satisfied with You Su’s appearance.
Cross-dressing, with You Su as the female and herself as the male, ultimately still male and female paired.
On impulse, she lifted You Su’s chin:
"The young lady is quite pretty, are you betrothed?"
You Su frowned, realizing that He Kongyue intended to tease him, planning to turn the tables in return, to see who would gross out who.
"Not yet betrothed. Does Mr. He want to invite me for tea?"
"Of course, I hope the lady would do me the honor."
He Kongyue seemed to get into character, her actions and demeanor like a rogue chatting up a respectable young lady.
You Su shuddered in discomfort, quickly pulling his chin away from Mr. He’s hand.
He thought it strange. Back in the cave, when he first joked about such matters, Mr. He seemed resistant. Why does it seem now like she’s enjoying it...
Fortunately, He Kongyue didn’t continue teasing, and successfully led the cross-dressed You Su into the inner courtyard.
He Mingpei was not surprised by You Su’s arrival. He leaned against the door outside, kindly, showing no signs of illness.
"Miss You looks even more beautiful."
"Mr. He is looking even more spirited."
You Su replied with a pinched voice.
"Thanks to the passage you left last time." He Kongyue took the initiative to praise You Su, while He Mingpei smiled warmly.
Elders are like this, when their spirit improves, their physical condition too. And that Jiangchengzi by Jiaxuan successfully resonated with the elder, providing a sense of someone in this world understanding his sufferings.
