Chapter 282 How to...do it?
This left Ye Wumian utterly bewildered. "What are you doing?"
Xin Moyan's palms were frozen red, and then she stretched them a little closer to him.
"My hands are warm, so the snow melts instantly when I hold it. If I put my hand into the basin, do you think the remaining snow will melt?"
He thought Xin Moyan was deliberately changing the subject, so he said irritably, "It can be dissolved, but it will take a while, and your hands will get frostbite."
“Yes, that’s right.” Xin Moyan nodded in agreement.
"As long as there is warmth, even the coldest ice and snow can melt, and the same goes for people! If you treat someone sincerely, one day that aloof woman's heart will be warmed."
She was talking nonsense with a straight face. If two people don't love each other, then no matter how much they try to warm each other up, it's useless. Just like her and Xuan Yuan, if Xuan Yuan doesn't like her, no matter how much she likes him, it's useless!
However, what about Ye Wumian and Sister Ruoyu...
"what do you mean?"
He raised his glass, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp. The unrestrained movement caused some of the wine to slowly flow down his lips, down his throat, and down his chest, until it disappeared into his blood-red clothes.
"Sleepless at night, think about it, even ice and snow can be melted by body heat, so it's the same for people! Although Sister Ruoyu seems aloof, haven't you noticed that she's only aloof to you? Look how much she cares about me."
After saying that, Xin Moyan raised her eyebrows provocatively, which infuriated him. However, fearing that the woman behind him would hear, he held back and lowered his voice.
"Xin Moyan, don't push your luck. I've been putting up with you for a long time."
She rubbed her chin. Why did those words sound so familiar?
"Alright! Just let me finish!" Xin Moyan instantly put on a flattering smile. Whether it was hoping that Yao Ruoyu would have a better life in the future, or for her own plans, she had to keep Ye Wumian in line.
"Night... Your Majesty, think about it. You have never shown Sister Ruoyu a kind look. You have made things difficult for her and tormented her at every turn. I heard that you made her grind ink all night last night. With your cruel behavior, who would dare to treat you gently?"
Ye Wumian scoffed coldly, "Ha! I tortured her? Look at how she treated me. I'm being lenient by not cutting off her head and wiping out her entire family."
"Hey? Look, here you are again. I've already said that ice and snow will only melt if you hold it in your hand. Women are all made of water. If you don't try to move her, how dare you expect a woman who was forced by someone's power to care for you and love you in return? If I were Sister Ruoyu, I would be lucky if I didn't hate you to the bone and skin you alive."
"you……"
Ye Wumian stared wide-eyed, his slender fingers poking at the forehead of the hateful woman in front of him who was mimicking his speech, only to be slapped away by Xin Moyan.
“I’m right! Sleepless Night, if you want to win the heart of this beauty, you have to swallow your pride. Besides, I think Sister Ruoyu not only has feelings for you, but also cares about you a lot! If you really don’t love her, there’s no need to torment her every day. Why don’t you give her a way out and let her leave the palace with the child? Anyway, the child isn’t yours.”
This was a lot of information, and Ye Wumian didn't react for a moment.
What do you mean by "she has me in her heart"?
He didn't hear anything else, he just remembered this sentence.
"Ahem!" Xin Moyan glanced around. The singing and dancing below continued. Yao Ruoyu lowered her head and gently touched her belly, seemingly not looking at them. She turned her body slightly closer to Ye Wumian's ear.
"Let me tell you, I can tell that Sister Ruoyu likes you a lot, but you bully her every day, which only pushes her heart further and further away."
Ye Wumian instinctively grabbed her wrist, unable to resist using some force, his face full of disbelief.
"How is that possible? She said herself that she hated me and would never forgive me in this lifetime."
Xin Moyan rolled her eyes. "Don't you even think about how many despicable things you've done? When others pursue their beloved, they treat them like treasures, afraid they'll melt in their hands. Unlike you, you directly snatched her into the palace to become a concubine. Don't even mention the three-year mourning period. Her husband had just finished the seventh day after his death when you forced Sister Ruoyu. She was pregnant at the time. No one would forgive you, you beast."
Ye Wumian's lips twitched repeatedly; she was practically gritting her teeth in anger, "Xin~Mo~Yan~"
"I'm telling the truth! Besides, you promised you wouldn't hit me."
He glared at Xin Moyan for a long time, then sighed deeply, his tone seemingly helpless.
"go on."
"Two pieces of ice placed together will only get colder and colder, they will not warm each other and melt. Two indifferent and heartless people together will only drift further and further apart, unless one of them is willing to bow down and compromise first."
Seeing that he remained silent, Xin Moyan continued, "You've already bullied Sister Ruoyu until she's covered in bruises, do you really expect her to turn around and beg for your love?"
"Or, if you lose interest and find Sister Ruoyu boring, you might as well let her and her child go, so you won't be unhappy every time you see her."
"Impossible! I will never let her leave. She can only belong to me, including her child. Everything she has belongs to me. If she dares to continue thinking this way..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Wumian's eyes turned sinister and terrifying in an instant, and the meaning of the second half of his sentence was quite clear.
"Hmph! You're threatening people again. I've always said that women are meant to be cherished and pampered, not to be bossed around and coerced by you all day long. With your incorrigible bad temper, forget it, I don't expect Sister Ruoyu to be nice to you."
Xin Moyan waved her hand and sighed, feigning regret.
"...Little Yan'er, are you sure she has feelings for me?"
"Yes, but Sister Ruoyu hasn't gotten over the hurt you caused her yet. You've been hurting her ever since the first day you took her into the palace..."
"If I only focus on hurting her, how could the food, clothing, and daily necessities of the Shang Le Palace be of the highest quality?"
"Oh, you think a slap followed by a sweet treat will do the trick? The damage you've inflicted on her heart is far greater than any delicacy or fine silk."
Upon hearing this, Ye Wumian pursed his lips and glanced at the woman beside him who was stroking the child in her womb, her face full of loving tenderness.
Seeing that he was gradually wavering, Xin Moyan hurriedly added fuel to the fire, saying, "You said it yourself, even the coldest snow will melt in a warm hand. Even if your hand gets frostbite in the end, it has melted! You hurt Sister Ruoyu for half a year, so now you can make it up to her for another half year. At most you'll lose face, but you can win back her heart. Why not?"
Turning back, a hint of doubt flickered in the fox's eyes. "How...how do I do it?"
