Chapter 58: Seducing Xiao Yi (2)
Yu'er was so frightened she knelt on the floor, "wah-wah"-ing several times and frantically waving her hands.
Sun Jiaojiao didn't understand what she meant and continued to guess. "You don't want to? Don't tell me you're silly enough to want to stay with me and be an old maid for the rest of your life? Or... is the man you like not from our residence?"
Hearing this, Yu'er fell silent. This time, she didn't wave her hands.
"If he's not from our residence, that's a bit tricky. But, it's fine. Who is it you like? Next time you see him, just point him out. No matter what his status, this Young Miss will teach you how to win him. How about it?" Sun Jiaojiao was very confident in her ability to handle men.
As they say, if he's receptive, a look is all it takes. If he's not, just drop hints like crazy. If hints don't work, just shamelessly chase him. There was always a way to get a man.
Hearing this, Yu'er was overjoyed. She kowtowed desperately to Sun Jiaojiao, "wah-wah"-ing nonstop. It was just a pity she could no longer speak and couldn't say who it was she liked.
Sun Jiaojiao nodded, satisfied, and took on the task of finding Yu'er lifelong happiness. She then smugly picked up a pastry Yu'er had brought, popped it in her mouth, and Yu'er immediately, thoughtfully, came over to massage her calves.
The pastry melted in her mouth. The flavor... was very familiar to Sun Jiaojiao. Wasn't this the taste of Hanxiang Wan?
Delighted, she picked up another pastry, held it in front of Yu'er, and asked, "You made these pastries?"
Yu'er nodded in confusion, not knowing what her Young Miss meant.
"Wonderful! Good Yu'er, make some more!" Sun Jiaojiao had thought of a good way to seduce Xiao Yi!
She had Yu'er make some more of these pastries. When they were almost done, she crushed the Hanxiang Wan and put it into one of the pieces. On the surface, it looked no different from a normal pastry.
Then, that day, while Sun Jiaojiao was admiring the flowers in the back garden, she was in an excellent mood and rewarded every servant present with a pastry. Everyone happily accepted the reward. Only Xiao Yi... reluctantly accepted the pastry laced with the "aphrodisiac" and put it in his mouth.
Sun Jiaojiao looked at his abstinent face and felt smug.
Reluctant now? We'll see if you're still reluctant when the drug kicks in!
In truth, she wasn't sure if this drug worked on men. She'd just use Xiao Yi as an experiment.
After everyone had happily eaten their pastry, Sun Jiaojiao found an excuse to send them all away. A quarter of an hour later, Sun Jiaojiao figured the drug should be taking effect. She came out, swaying her fan, and deliberately walked toward the guards' quarters.
She swayed into the guards' quarters, but she didn't see Xiao Yi. Instead, she saw Xiao Si.
Xiao Si was the youngest of the four Bright Guards, a bright-toothed "shota" guard. When he smiled at people, he revealed a row of especially nice teeth. When he heard Sun Jiaojiao ask about the leader, he guilelessly and honestly said, "The leader went to take a cold shower."
A cold shower!
Hehe...
Sun Jiaojiao knew. That definitely meant the drug had kicked in. Xiao Yi was burning with desire, which was why he'd gone to take a cold shower to suppress the 'evil fire'.
She swayed her fan, shot Xiao Si a grateful, flirtatious look, and headed toward the servants' bathhouse.
But... she had never been to the servants' bathhouse. She didn't know if anyone was inside, or if it would be... convenient to make her move...
Sun Jiaojiao swayed unhurriedly to the bathhouse door, carefully glanced around to make sure no one was there, then covered her face with her fan and peeked inside.
The bathhouse was a bit like a modern public bath, divided into several stalls. Each stall was individually enclosed and contained a wooden tub for bathing.
Sun Jiaojiao checked several stalls in a row; they were all empty. Only the last stall... sparse sounds of water were coming from inside.
Sun Jiaojiao quietly stood on her tiptoes and looked through the ventilation hole into the bathroom. It was thick with steam. In the middle of the wooden tub... was Xiao Yi, stark naked, desperately pouring cold water over his body.
