A Woman's Method of Pleasing

Zhan Hanjue's expression was cold as he ruthlessly pulled Ye Ningxuan's hand away, causing her to fall onto the bed.

"Since you don't want to, I won't force you. Ye Ningxuan, I don't lack women."

Then he turned and left.

Ye Ningxuan was speechless.

Was she being despised?

"Grandma, do you know what Hanjue likes to eat?" Ye Ningxuan ran to Old Madam Zhan's side and asked humbly.

She had completely offended Zhan Hanjue.

Zhan Hanjue refused to see her again.

She went to look for him but was stopped by Butler Wu.

Butler Wu looked troubled. "Young Madam, don't make things difficult for me. Young Master said that you are no longer qualified to enter this study. You should go back!"

Not only did he refuse to let her into the study, but when she finally saw him in the living room, he walked past her with a straight face and a blank expression, treating her like she wasn't there.

Ye Ningxuan was anxious.

How could he ignore her?

If he ignored her, who would tell her about the pictures?'

She had no choice but to ask Old Madam Zhan for help.

She had asked the servants of the Zhan family, but no one knew Zhan Hanjue's interests or hobbies. Even Butler Wu couldn't help.

"What he likes to eat?" Old Madam Zhan thought for a moment and shook her head. "I'm not sure. Hanjue is a child who doesn't care about food or drink, but why are you suddenly asking?"

"Hehe, it's nothing. I just want to know his hobby and please him," Ye Ningxuan explained with a smile.

Old Madam Zhan pursed her lips and smiled. "You're still lying to me. I heard from Butler Wu that the two of you have been fighting recently?"

"Grandma, I'm sorry," Ye Ningxuan apologized guiltily.

Old Madam Zhan smiled and said, "You don't have to apologize. I heard from Butler Wu that Hanjue was so angry that he didn't even let you into his study. I was very happy to hear that you ignored him."

Ye Ningxuan was speechless.

"Grandma, I thought you liked me a lot," she complained miserably.

Zhan Hanjue was ignoring her. It stung that the old lady felt happy about it.

"You don't know," said Old Madam Zhan earnestly. "Hanjue has always been indifferent. Not to mention after his father's death, even when his father was around, he was very aloof about everything. It was as if nothing could affect his emotions. Even if the sky collapsed, he wouldn't be fazed, not to mention fighting with someone to the point of ignoring them. You're the first. Don't you think that makes him more human? In the past, he seemed like he didn't have any emotions. It's not good. I worry just looking at him."

"I'm actually the first person to anger him?" Ye Ningxuan was surprised.

Why was she so unlucky?

Old Madam Zhan said, "He likes you. That's why you're able to make him angry. He doesn't get angry with people who are irrelevant. So if you want to please him, do it the way a woman does it. He won't stay angry with you."

Like her?

How could that be possible?

When one liked someone, they were very gentle to her. With that attitude, how could Zhan Hanjue like her?

"Grandma, please teach me," Ye Ningxuan begged pitifully.

Whether or not he liked her or not, she would find a way to appease him first.'

Old Madam Zhan shook her head. "Such things can only be understood and not conveyed in words. Think about it yourself."

Ye Ningxuan pouted. The old lady was too petty. She refused to show her the way.

She'd only studied medical books since she was a child. She could dissect a corpse, but studying a man's interests? That wasn't something she was good at.

"Ningxuan, how did it go? Did you get the things?"

In the evening, Wu Taotao called her to ask about the progress of the matter.

Ye Ningxuan gritted his teeth and said angrily, "How dare you say that? I asked you to find the things for me, but why did you give the things to Zhan Hanjue?"

"He opened it? How can that be? I clearly told him that this is yours and that he can't open it," Wu Taotao complained.

Ye Ningxuan closed her eyes. She didn't want to talk to her anymore.

"Now, he's angry and won't talk to me, but I have something to ask him. How can I ask if he doesn't talk to me? Hurry up and help me think of something. How can I please him?"

"Buy him deliciuos food," Wu Taotao suggested.

Ye Ningxuan snorted. "I asked the servants and his grandmother. He's not interested in food, drink, clothes, or goods."

"Then buy him something fun to play with?" Wu Taotao suggested again.

Ye Ningxuan sneered. "Do you think someone like Zhan Hanjue will like to play transformers or remote-controlled cars?"

"That's right. He looks cold and aloof. He probably doesn't like to play. Then I don't know. I can't think of anything else," Wu Taotao said aggrievedly.

Ye Ningxuan said, "Old Madam Zhan said to please him with women's methods. Tao Tao, what do you think women's methods are?"

"I know," Wu Taotao screamed. "I'll pack up the Mary Sue novels I've read and send them to you immediately. Read them carefully and you'll understand what a woman's solution is."

Ye Ningxuan was speechless.

Soon, she received Wu Taotao's files.

When she opened it, she saw things like "The Devil's Father Kisses Me", "Overbearing Presidents Beg for Hug", "Tonight, I'll Go to the Witch Mountain with You"… Her expression darkened. No wonder her grades never improved. She spent all her time reading these kinds of books.

If the village chief knew about this, he would definitely break her legs.

Ten minutes later.

Ye Ningxuan read with relish.

It took about three hours to skim through the first half of a dozen books and come to a conclusion.

Men were afraid of clingy women. Men were all stubborn but soft-hearted.

To deal with such an arrogant and ruthless man, she had to be clingy.

Zhan Hanjue was staying in the study.

When he was thirsty, he asked Butler Wu to bring tea in, but it was Ye Ningxuan who pushed the door open.

When he smelled something wrong, he looked up.

As soon as he saw Ye Ningxuan, his expression darkened and he shouted at the door, "Butler Wu, what happened?"

Butler Wu came in with an aggrieved expression. "Young Master, the old lady instructed me not to stop Young Madam. I had no choice."

Ye Ningxuan waved her hand and asked Butler Wu to leave.

Grinning, she brought the tea to him and smiled apologetically. "Don't blame Butler Wu. He's just a butler. He has to listen to you and Grandma. He's quite pitiful at his age. Don't make things difficult for him."

"Get out."

Zhan Hanjue scowled at her and refused to say another word to her.

Ye Ningxuan bit her lip.

She mustered her courage and sat on Zhan Hanjue's lap. "I was wrong. I was really wrong. Give me another chance. I promise I won't play any tricks on you this time."

"Ye Ningxuan, do you know what you're doing?" Zhan Hanjue pinched her chin with one hand and stared deeply into her eyes.
