Ji Mo looked at Ying Tianbao, who was crying with a runny nose and tears, with a speechless expression.
He was already an emperor, so why was he so prone to crying?
If it weren't for the absence of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" here, he would have suspected Ying Tianbao had learned Liu Huangshu's tactics.
Of course, Ji Mo understood Ying Tianbao. This salted fish was simple-minded and had no ulterior motives; he must have truly been wronged.
He rubbed Ying Tianbao's head with a doting expression and asked, "Xiao Bao, what's wrong again?"
Ying Tianbao sobbed as he recounted his story.
It turned out that following the method Ji Mo taught him, he had boldly, black-heartedly, and shamelessly "convinced" Chen Hui.
He thought that from then on, he would have a wife, children, and a warm hearth, living a blissful life.
Unexpectedly.
Afterward, Chen Hui became like a different person. Her expression changed on the spot, and she ruthlessly kicked him out.
"Mo Ge, I thought the saying 'fierce as a demon before, holy as Buddha after' only happened to us men. I didn't expect women to be even more outrageous. At least we men would sweet-talk and say fake things like 'I'll take responsibility' or 'I'll treat you well,' but that woman truly showed no mercy. She immediately declared she was cutting off all ties with me and never seeing me again."
Ying Tianbao cried with teary eyes, unable to understand how Chen Hui's demeanor could change so quickly.
She had just been saying "I want more," and then quickly turned into "You better get lost." It was truly heartbreaking.
He looked at Ji Mo expectantly and asked for advice, "Mo Ge, you're the best at wooing girls. Why don't you teach me a couple more tricks?"
Ji Hanhan was instantly speechless.
When did I start wooing girls?
Girls have always been infatuated with me!
But since Ying Tianbao had already said this, he couldn't possibly admit that he didn't know anything.
Ji Mo pinched his chin, racking his brain for a monumental question: how to appease his moody wife?
Alas, women are so troublesome!
Ying Tianbao continued, "Mo Ge, I heard Hui'er mention that some people say we have a thing going on. Honestly, it's that gossipy woman spreading rumors, maliciously slandering and defaming me. Shameless. We are good brothers, forever, pure and clean."
As he spoke, he nestled his head tightly into Ji Mo's embrace, nuzzling him repeatedly.
His body clung to Ji Mo like a koala, using his hands and feet, hugging him tightly.
Ji Mo's forehead was covered in black lines. Who is "we" in the same bed? It was originally pure and clean, but with your actions, even the Yellow River couldn't wash it clean.
Worse still, he saw the presence of that fujoshi again, walking towards them.
It was over. Now it was even more impossible to explain, and they were caught red-handed.
Xu Youqing approached with trepidation. She had finally realized that it wasn't that Ji Mo was attracted to both men and women, but that her good brother-in-law was acting strangely.
"Ying Tianbao, what are you saying? Who is gossipy?"
Xu Youqing clearly harbored inexplicable hostility towards Ying Tianbao and couldn't stand it any longer. She pulled Ying Tianbao off Ji Mo.
"Who are you?"
Seeing that the other person actually knew him, Ying Tianbao looked confused.
Xu Youqing immediately stated her identity, expressed her close sisterhood with Chen Hui, and hinted that she knew why Chen Hui was treating Ying Tianbao this way.
Ying Tianbao's attitude changed instantly, and he became ingratiating. "Little sister-in-law, from now on, you are my dear sister. As long as you help your brother-in-law, I'll agree to any conditions."
Xu Youqing's eyes rolled, and she immediately had an idea. She pulled Ying Tianbao aside and whispered, "I'm not your sister-in-law. We'll each call each other what's appropriate. I'll call you brother-in-law, and you have to call me sister-in-law."
As she spoke, she glanced at Ji Mo with a blush, hinting at her intentions.
For Longhu Mountain, she had to find a way to build a good relationship with Ji Mo, and there was no more reliable relationship than becoming a Dao companion.
Therefore, Xu Youqing's intention was clear: she wanted Ying Tianbao to help her win over Ji Mo, while she would help Ying Tianbao win over Chen Hui, achieving a mutually beneficial win-win situation.
"What? Sister-in-law?"
Ying Tianbao was stunned.
Immediately, his heart was filled with emotion.
Mo Ge is indeed Mo Ge. His skill in wooing girls is truly astonishing and awe-inspiring.
Without doing anything, he had made a beautiful girl fall for him, uncontrollably.
After a secretive conversation, they reached an agreement.
Ying Tianbao finally understood why Chen Hui treated him that way and immediately cursed, "Damn Longhu Mountain! They're so snobbish and look down on me, breaking up our love. Mo Ge, you must stand up for me!"
As he spoke, his eyes welled up with tears again, and he lunged forward to hug Ji Mo.
Xu Youqing quickly grabbed him and threatened him telepathically, "Keep your distance. I won't allow you to have any ideas about your brother, you homosexual."
Ying Tianbao's mouth twitched, wanting to curse.
What do you mean homosexual?
What's wrong with good brothers hugging, slinging arms, and being close?
Why are you so impure, little girl?
The three of them went to the courtyard where Chen Hui lived.
Since he understood Chen Hui's concerns, Ying Tianbao planned to come clean. He was definitely not the "country bumpkin from the lower realm" that Longhu Mountain perceived him to be; as Ji Mo's sworn brother, his status was much higher.
Meanwhile, Han Dongwu received a report from his subordinate that Ying Tianbao had returned, and his face immediately showed murderous intent.
He had always had designs on Chen Hui but had never expected Ying Tianbao to snatch her away. Naturally, he harbored resentment.
The first time Ying Tianbao came, he had already planned to kill him to vent his anger.
However, Chen Hui's faction had blocked him, preventing him from getting the chance.
This time, no matter what, he wouldn't let Ying Tianbao leave Longhu Mountain alive.
Just as he was about to lead his men to kill Ying Tianbao, a subordinate rushed to report, "Elder Han, we've finally found the sacrifice for the Heavenly Demon. It's a lotus spirit with chaotic energy, possibly an ancient variant. We also captured a very stunning beauty, with a figure that's sure to please you."
Upon hearing this news, Han Dongwu's eyes lit up with greed. At this point, he had no time to worry about Ying Tianbao and eagerly went to see just how stunning she was.
If they found a suitable sacrifice and could please the Heavenly Demon, then Longhu Mountain would be protected by the Heavenly Demon in the future, and they wouldn't have to fear the return of that old demon for revenge.
Furthermore, by establishing a connection with the Heavenly Demon, his Longhu Mountain would successfully enter the dark faction and avoid the fate of being harvested.
Han Dongwu became happier and happier as he thought about it. It seemed his good days were about to begin.
Walking on the road.
Ying Tianbao was slightly excited and chatted with Ji Mo, saying, "Mo Ge, I had a big baby boy, but I never gave him a proper name. I was thinking of naming him 'Zheng,' what do you think?"
"What? Zheng? Ying Zheng! Hey, Xiao Bao, you absolutely cannot use this name. The child might not be able to handle it..."
