Having played the villain long enough, Lu Bei dropped the wicked act and said earnestly, "Master Yan, you need not worry so much. MiaoJun is just teasing you. She considers you a sister, why would she lead you into injustice?"
Yan Xiaoshuang didn't believe him, scornfully retorting, "What exactly are you planning to make me give up on resisting?"
"If Master Yan is willing, I won't dare to refuse."
Lu Bei shrugged and stated, "Hand over the inheritance of the Fuyao Palace, swear allegiance to me, and I guarantee that I will never cross the line with you."
An idea struck Han MiaoJun, and she leaned in to whisper in Lu Bei's ear, "Using a soft tactic won't work on her. Now is the time to cut this knot sharply. If you are reluctant to drop your righteous pretensions, let me deal with it. I guarantee that she will be obedient to you."
"No, thank you. I do not indulge in womanly charms."
