Chapter 25: “Ninth Brother, do you think I’ll do?” Meng Mingxuan asked nervously, twisting her fingers.

Meng Mingxuan didn’t know why, but she didn’t immediately walk into the study.

She heard the sound of a lighter from inside the study.

Click, click, click.

It didn’t sound like someone was lighting a cigarette, but more like someone was thinking.

Then, she heard Yan Mo Jiu’s low voice, “It’s just a nominal identity, do we still have to put on a show?”

“Of course, we have to show some affection, otherwise people will see through it immediately.”

“Ninth Brother, don’t worry, it’s just holding hands and putting an arm around each other in public.”

“Right, no need for Ninth Brother to get involved.”

Meng Mingxuan frowned slightly.

Holding hands and putting an arm around each other in public?

A strange sense of discomfort arose from the depths of her heart.

“I have a cleanliness fetish.”

Yan Mo Jiu’s voice was cold, as someone who had been in a position of power for a long time, even a simple sentence carried a sense of pressure.

“If it really doesn’t work, find a boyfriend.” Tang Jun suddenly said something shocking.

“Uh… if we find a boyfriend, wouldn’t Ninth Brother have to hug and kiss a man? Ninth Brother, you wouldn’t really like men, would you?”

Yan Mo Jiu gave Nie Ziyang a cold look, “If you really don’t want your mouth, I can tear it off for you.”

Nie Ziyang immediately covered his mouth.

He wants it.

He wants it.

“I think that Bai family’s eldest daughter is quite suitable, otherwise, let’s go with her?” Feng Yilin glanced at the ajar door, “She’s a wealthy young lady from Lincheng, she’s beautiful, and she’s the Miss’s friend…”

“She’s not my friend!”

Meng Mingxuan’s heart tightened, she kicked the study door lightly with the tray in her hand and walked in.

“Mingxuan?” Nie Ziyang pretended to be surprised.

Yan Mo Jiu suddenly got up and walked towards her in a few strides, reaching out to take the tray from her hand.

“Don’t carry so many cups of tea at once, what if you get burned?” He frowned.

“Okay.” Meng Mingxuan’s mind wasn’t on that, “Ninth Brother, Bai Sitong is not my friend.”

“Yeah.” Yan Mo Jiu looked at her, put the tray on the coffee table.

“Carry it yourself.”

“Say thank you.”

He threw these two sentences at Nie Ziyang and the others, then took Meng Mingxuan’s hand and sat down on the double sofa.

“Thank you, Mingxuan.” Nie Ziyang got up, took the first cup, and thanked him with a smile.

“Thank you, Little Princess.” Tang Jun took the second cup.

“Thank you, Miss.” Feng Yilin took the third cup.

“…”

In her previous life, Meng Mingxuan didn’t meet Nie Ziyang and the others often, and they hardly interacted.

Otherwise, she would have known earlier that she had so many identities.

At this time, Yan Mo Jiu spoke, “You all heard, Mingxuan doesn’t agree.”

Meng Mingxuan was startled, remembering what she said when she entered, her red lips opened to explain, but Nie Ziyang beat her to it.

“Mingxuan, you now know Ninth Brother’s background, this time back to Kyoto, it’s to seize power and take revenge. Ninth Brother is single, and he brings you back to Kyoto in the name of your sister, that mother and son will definitely throw dirty water on you.”

“…” Meng Mingxuan’s face flushed.

She naturally understood what Nie Ziyang meant by throwing dirty water.

“The Little Princess has a possessive desire for Ninth Brother, we understand that, but the Miss should also be sensible and think from Ninth Brother’s perspective.” Tang Jun smiled and glanced at Yan Mo Jiu’s infuriatingly handsome face, “This face, this figure, is already enough for women to…”

Meng Mingxuan didn’t know why, but she didn’t immediately walk into the study.

She heard the sound of a lighter from inside the study.

Click, click, click.

It didn’t sound like someone was lighting a cigarette, but more like someone was thinking.

“If he adds the identity of the eldest grandson of the Yan family in Kyoto, wouldn’t he be able to charm those wealthy young ladies in the capital? By then, he’ll be too busy dealing with women to have any time to seize power and take revenge.”

Feng Yilin said, “The Miss is very well protected by Ninth Brother, she probably doesn’t know how unscrupulous those big families in Kyoto are. To be honest, even if Ninth Brother has a real girlfriend, they will still use some despicable means to marry into the Yan family. For example…”

He looked at Yan Mo Jiu, who remained silent, “Drugging.”

Meng Mingxuan was slightly shocked!

Drugging?

“If they get a wealthy young lady to sleep with him, even Ninth Brother can’t avoid responsibility. Otherwise, he will definitely make powerful enemies and bring about a bloody storm.” Feng Yilin took a sip of hot tea and continued, “So we have Ninth Brother find someone to pretend to be his girlfriend, not only to announce that he’s not single, but also for this person to play the role of a shrew, to defend Ninth Brother’s chastity and block all the women with bad intentions.”

Meng Mingxuan: “…”

Yan Mo Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly, his thin lips parted.

But, he didn’t say anything.

“According to what you said, we need to find someone who’s fearless to complete the task.” Nie Ziyang laughed.

“That’s right.” Feng Yilin looked at Meng Mingxuan.

Meng Mingxuan: “?”

What did Feng Yilin mean by looking at her like that?

Did he think she was fearless?

“Then it’s difficult, that Bai family’s eldest daughter almost got scared to death by Ninth Brother’s words, her face turned pale on the spot.” Tang Jun smiled playfully, “To be honest, besides our Little Princess, who has the guts to be so bold in front of Ninth Brother?”

“Pfft…”

Nie Ziyang burst out laughing.

Meng Mingxuan felt speechless.

These three people weren’t implying her, she, Meng Mingxuan, could write her name backwards!

But they were right, Ninth Brother was going back to Kyoto to seize power and avenge Aunt Yan.

She naturally had to help Ninth Brother clear the obstacles on his path.

“Ninth Brother, do you think I’ll do?”

Meng Mingxuan turned her head, nervously twisting her fingers, and asked.

Yan Mo Jiu looked at her, meeting her beautiful eyes, the scattered starlight in them made him want to hide her, not let anyone else see her.

“Slap!”

Nie Ziyang clapped his hands excitedly, standing up, “If Mingxuan is willing to help, it would be perfect!”

Tang Jun raised his eyebrows and laughed, “Ninth Brother and the Little Princess’s relationship is so natural, they don’t even need to act. And this way, Ninth Brother won’t have a sister anymore, just say that it was a childhood engagement arranged by both families.”

“The Miss is finally sensible.” Feng Yilin smiled and raised his hand, finishing the tea that Meng Mingxuan had personally brewed.

Meng Mingxuan gained a little more confidence from what the three of them said.

But she didn’t know what Yan Mo Jiu thought.

Ninth Brother’s heart was…

“Would it be unfair to Mingxuan?” Yan Mo Jiu reached out, gently turned her shoulder, and looked into her eyes.

“No.” Meng Mingxuan shook her head.

She was happy to be able to help Ninth Brother.

She was just afraid that Ninth Brother wouldn’t want her to.

After all, Ninth Brother had someone he loved deeply in his heart.

“Then, it’s decided.” Yan Mo Jiu reached out and pulled Meng Mingxuan into his arms.

His beautiful eyes, which were usually slightly less charming due to his coldness, now curved slightly at the corners.

It was captivating.

Unfortunately, Meng Mingxuan couldn’t see it.

Meng Mingxuan hadn’t thought anything of this kind of embrace before, she had often hugged Yan Mo Jiu back and forth since she was a child.

When she was dating Yin Ting, Yin Ting was jealous and said that even brothers shouldn’t do that, and only then did she start to keep her distance from Yan Mo Jiu.

But she didn’t think there was anything wrong with it.

But now…

After agreeing to pretend to be a couple with Yan Mo Jiu, she suddenly felt that his embrace was burning hot, making her feel a little helpless.

Had she been too hasty in making this decision?

Just as Meng Mingxuan had this thought, Nie Ziyang suddenly said, “Mingxuan, you have to put your arms around Ninth Brother’s waist, otherwise it’s easy to see that you’re a fake couple.”

“…Oh.”

Meng Mingxuan had no choice but to reach out and gently put her arms around Yan Mo Jiu’s waist.

Nie Ziyang and the others exchanged victorious glances.

Success!

Next, let’s see how Ninth Brother seduces the Little Princess.
