500: Fujoshi recruitment agency

Fujoshi recruitment agency

When did she ever back down easily? She tugged at his robe and mouthed, "I never refuse any of your requests but you don't want to do me this one favour."2

Huishe Nan who had just been refused extra curriculum activities last night, "....."

This woman truly had the memory of a goldfish. That was the beginning of an endless back and forth of mouthing and pinching. The two were stuck in their own little world that they didn't realize that their movements were obvious and that everyone could read their lips.

"Ask us what?" enquired Rui Fei as he sat there his hand lazily stroking Ji Yao's lower back. Everyone else didn't think it appropriate to disturb this elderly pair and besides they thought it amusing and

wanted to see how this silent argument would end. They wanted to know if Huishe Shushi could actually convince Huishe Nan to ask the question she wanted him to ask.

But Rui Fei was a different breed. He ruthlessly ruined everyone's experience before an ending could be decided. He was like that one friend who spoils the ending for everyone by asking too many questions.

"Nothing..... I mean she doesn't want me to ask anything," he hurriedly said only for Huishe Shushi to glare at him with an expression so fierce that his children began to burn joss paper for him. That right there was a dead man.

Qilin Hao was sitting with her arms folded across her chest with a slight smile having read Huishe Shushi's mind. She decided to ask on her behalf. "Ah-Yao, she wants to know if you are going to get married and if you are she also wants to know who is marrying in."

Huishe Shushi was astonished. Qilin Hao had accurately read her mind. She suddenly felt like they were kindred spirits. The weird thought of making trinkets with Qilin Hao as in-laws popped into her mind. They could actually become sisters and spend their days seeping on some oolong tea while chatting each other up. Unfortunately, that bubble burst as soon as it grew to full capacity.

The age difference in itself was discouraging let alone the years of hatred between their clans. It would be very weird if they instantly became buddy buddy out of nowhere.

"Yes.....," replied Ji Yao while Rui Fei simultaneously responded enthusiastically,

"Me, I want to marry in."

Ji Yao, "....."

"Were you serious about that?" asked Ji Yao in a low voice but of course, they all heard.

Ji Wen who had been behaving well this entire time was in an even better mood. He immediately said, "You all heard him. He already said it. He is marrying in and he can't go against his word."

Ji Yao was so embarrassed by his father's taunting expression like he had won an argument that everyone thought he was going to lose. "Dad, just stop gloating please," said Ji Yao a little exasperated.

"If that's what you want then that's fine. We will prepare accordingly," replied Huishe Xiyue her expression genuine. She was down for anything.

"Oh boy," whispered Huishe Yue not certain how to feel about this. Above all he wanted Rui Fei to be happy but that didn't mean he didn't have his own opinions. Of course, he kept his opinions to himself but there were still there.

"We can talk about that later. Right now there is a lot of work to do. Since Ah-Yao has decided to take on the position as king we need to inform the various clans and also discuss how to go about it," said Huishe Nan leading the conversation back to the most important agenda.

It's just that his good intentions were portrayed as his reluctance to let his grandson marry into the Ji family. Everyone had no choice but to let it go for now and decided to go to the main hall.

While walking down the passageways, Ji Yao was peeled off Rui Fei by his father and the two walked ahead of the group.

Ji Wen whispered, "So... you really like him, huh?"

Ji Yao, "....."

Isn't that obvious?

Seeing that look in Ji Yao's eyes that seemed to say thank you captain obvious he hurriedly explained, "No no no don't look at me like that. Dad is very, very happy for you. I am asking because I also like him. He is very sensible. When you bring him home we will treat him like a gem. He can even bring along those two little rascals and we will be one big family."

"But you treat gems like coal. I have seen you toss them in the sea like pebbles for fun," he said with a blank expression.

Ji Wen, "....."

Damnit, he almost forgot that such a thing happened. "Wrong metaphor. I will treat him like a star..... How is that?" he tried to correct his wording but things didn't work out well for him.

"You said that stars are examples of failure, failure to become the moon," said Ji Yao wanting to see how deep the pit his father was digging for himself would be after this.

"Was I drunk when I said it? Dang, I really should quit drinking.... What other nonsense did I say when I was drunk?" asked Ji Wen while scratching his head.

Ji Yao could only say, "too many to count." There were indeed too many that Ji Yao could write a book and title it 'The philosophies of a drunk Pirate King'.

Meanwhile, Qilin Hao was slowly getting recruited into the YaoFei CP fangirl club by Huishe Shushi. And how on earth did she know about such a thing.

It was because she had overheard Rui Li talk about it before. At that time the little fujoshi was busy roping in the girls who served in the Pavilion praising her CP to high heaven.

Words like 'they are so cute together and 'so much dog food' were thrown around. At that time she didn't understand but from the moment she saw her grandson and Ji Yao side by side she felt this inexplicable wave of exhilaration.

The way her grandson stared intently at Ji Yao made her heart melt into a puddle. When they held hands she felt like squealing with her hands covering her face like a teenage girl. When she saw Rui Fei follow Ji Yao subconsciously she felt like screaming like a fangirl at a concert.

At her age, it was hard to find something exciting but this.... this ignited a spark in her. Her only regret was that she couldn't save these memories physically so she could reminisce in the future.

She felt the urge to seek out fellow CP fans to share this experience with. If Rui Li wasn't resting she might have already gone to her and share all the details she missed.

Now she had hooked Qilin Hao with her fishing rod and she was slowly reeling her in. How exciting.
