An Ruojun had specially dressed in a pink and blue silk dress today.
Its design was exquisite, with light blue ribbons accentuating her slender waist, making the peaks wrapped by her upper garment look as if they were nearly overflowing.
The delicate flowers embroidered on the chemise seemed unable to contain her proud, full figure.
The slit in her skirt was extremely deliberate, splitting open to the thigh.
As she walked, her two long, slender legs were exceptionally eye-catching, their perfect curves tugging at the heartstrings.
This outfit not only perfectly displayed her curvaceous and voluptuous figure, but also allowed her to radiate a brilliant charm.
Mo Huaiyu was stunned.
It took several breaths for him to regain his composure, and the urge to stare almost overwhelmed his brain.
However, he could not help but mutter to himself, ‘This outfit looks as if it were specially worn for someone to see.’
He was right.
This outfit was indeed worn by An Ruojun specifically for Mo Huaiyu.
Since she wanted An Ruoxi to see a man’s true colors, she had to make him fall for her first.
Thus, she had specially dug out clothes she used to wear.
According to Qingluan, she had accidentally encountered this brat in the Manual Pavilion yesterday.
So, she decided to try her luck today.
She had not expected her luck to be so good, spotting the brat as soon as she arrived.
Looking at the slightly small youth with an exceptionally clear and handsome face, An Ruojun tried her best to steady her explosive temper.
A faint smile hung on her lips, carrying the kind and easygoing nature of a sister next door.
She walked up to Mo Huaiyu and said, “What a coincidence. To think I would run into… see you here. Do you need me, your Senior Sister, to help you reference some manuals?”
“Thank you for the kind offer, Senior Sister… but I have already made my choice.”
He called An Ruoxi “Senior Sister An,” but when it came to An Ruojun, Mo Huaiyu suddenly did not know how to address her.
To distinguish them, he decided to just call her “Senior Sister.”
Besides, he knew she quite loathed him.
Although An Ruojun looked all smiles today, he knew that when things were unusual, there was bound to be trouble.
She had been so fierce to him recently; how could her attitude suddenly shift in just a few days?
Not knowing what An Ruojun was plotting, he felt it was better to leave as soon as possible.
Seeing that Mo Huaiyu wanted to leave, An Ruojun’s eyes twitched.
She had gone through all the trouble to put on a dress again, yet he was so blind to its value!
The veins at the corner of her eyes throbbed.
She constantly told herself in her mind, ‘Don’t get angry, don’t get angry. This is all for the plan. Endure it!’
Thus, An Ruojun smiled brightly and said, “The last time we met, I was a bit out of sorts and startled you, Junior Brother. I came here this time because I wanted to have a good talk with you about the matters between you and Ruoxi. After all, Ruoxi is my only sister.”
“Alright then, let us talk now.”
Mo Huaiyu felt that An Ruojun harbored ill intentions.
Even though she had a stunning smile on her face that could easily mesmerize others, he felt a sense of danger from it.
Indeed, whenever he made Sister Yuyun angry, she would want to beat him but was afraid he would notice.
She would always use this smiling face to coax him over, and then she would grab him and begin the inhuman torture.
One tall and one short figure strolled casually through the cultivation manual area of Hundred Flowers Peak.
Fortunately, it was early morning, so there were very few people in the Manual Pavilion.
Furthermore, this was the Hundred Flowers Peak section; even if there were people, they would be female disciples, so it did not cause a commotion.
Otherwise, with An Ruojun’s beauty coupled with the charm of her outfit, it would have certainly caused an uproar.
As they chatted, An Ruojun finally revealed her purpose for this visit.
“Speaking of which, Junior Brother, you probably know that the Trial will open before long. How about it? Do you want to team up with me? I am very strong—stronger than Ruoxi. I think if you team up with me, taking first place won’t be a problem at all.”
An Ruojun stopped walking and looked at Mo Huaiyu with her beautiful eyes.
Her clear gaze was lively, carrying a hint of expectation.
Mo Huaiyu turned to look at An Ruojun.
As expected, she definitely had an ulterior motive for looking for him.
However, he was not some greenhorn who would be dazed by beauty.
For An Ruojun to actively invite him like this, she must have some plan.
To be safe, it was better to refuse, but he could not do so directly.
He frowned, pretending to think for a long time before saying, “Hmm… I should give this some proper thought. Please give me some time, Senior Sister.”
An Ruojun’s beautiful eyes darkened slightly.
Her fair hands almost reached out to grab the young boy and force him to agree.
‘Lady! Be a lady!’
Qingluan had said that men like ladies, so she had to act like one.
She raised her snowy wrist, her jade-like fingers gently tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
Her eyes were quiet and deep, and a smile bloomed on her stunning face, as beautiful and peerless as a magnolia.
“Won’t you consider it, Junior Brother? Not only am I powerful, but for this team invitation, I have only invited you.”
An Ruojun emphasized the words “only you” with a somewhat ambiguous tone.
Had it been anyone else facing this former Hundred Flowers Fairy speaking in such a suggestive tone, they would have long since agreed in a daze.
However, Mo Huaiyu liked saying “no” to people the most.
The youth shook his head and repeated, “Once I have made up my mind, I will let you know, Senior Sister.”
Conveniently, while they were chatting, they arrived at the entrance of the Manual Pavilion.
Mo Huaiyu registered the manual he had taken and turned to leave, his figure disappearing into the morning light.
At that moment, the water-like tenderness An Ruojun had displayed gradually faded.
With a *creak* sound, she gritted her silver teeth and clenched her pink fists.
“That hateful brat!”
“Oh, if it isn’t little Ruojun!”
A white-haired Old Woman leaning on a cane spoke with a gentle aura.
An Ruojun was surprised to see the Old Woman.
She was about to bow, but the Old Woman stopped her.
“We are all family, there is no need to be so formal.”
The Old Woman looked An Ruojun up and down, eyeing her flamboyant attire.
“It has been a long time since I saw you in a dress. What is it? Are you no longer being rebellious?”
“Uh… Old Woman, why are you here?”
“I had nothing to do today, so I came to browse the Manual Pavilion. I didn’t expect to run into you trying to seduce that young boy…”
In an instant, An Ruojun’s cheeks were dyed a deep crimson.
She hurriedly interrupted, “No! Old Woman! It wasn’t seduction! I was… recruiting! Yes, I was just recruiting that brat to team up with me!”
She had originally planned to use various material incentives—for example, throwing millions of Spirit Stones at him along with pills and magic treasures to get the boy to leave Ruoxi.
But then she remembered that the boy was the Empress’s brother, so he certainly wouldn’t lack those things.
The only thing left was the temptation of beauty.
The Old Woman chuckled, wearing an “I understand everything” expression.
She smilingly took out a Jade Slip and said meaningfully, “I understand. After all, I went through the same thing back in my day. However, snatching a man isn’t as simple as just using beauty. I believe the contents of this will help you.”
“Even though I know the boy has a Marriage Contract with your sister, in the face of love, one must always take a gamble. I support you, girl!”
An Ruojun was so angry that her full chest rose and fell violently, as if it might break free from its restraints at any moment.
Just as she was about to explain, she looked at the Jade Slip in her hand.
Unlike other Jade Slips, this one was carved with a demonic peach blossom pattern that formed a heart shape, exuding a seductive and mysterious feeling.
