The Unconventional Conquest Handbook

One day, a guard from the Qin residence came rushing up to Qin Sui. He dropped to his knees and wailed, "Sir! Boss Xia thinks you're no fun and ran off!"

With a bang, Qin Sui smacked the table and shot to his feet. He stormed toward Xia Xuduan's courtyard. From a distance, he saw it was full of flowers, with Xia Xuduan sitting leisurely on a stool, watching a kitten nibble at the blooms. When Xia saw him, he merely lifted his eyes and said nothing.

A single glance was enough to change the atmosphere.

The guard behind Qin Sui stiffened, then felt his heart sway. He defected on the spot, dropping to his knees in front of Xia Xuduan and wailing, "Boss Xia, our lord says that if you still won't have him, he'll go hang himself from the southeast branch!"

Qin Sui, who had just been thrown under the bus: "..."

Xia Xuduan smiled and made a gesture toward a nearby tree. "Go on, give us a demonstration."

The imposing aura around Qin Sui vanished at once. He shuffled over, looking pitiful, and confessed his feelings. "I love you."

Xia Xuduan: "Not interested."

Another day, the famous assassin organization White Phoenix Academy was unusually lively. The only reason was that its master had brought a young man dressed in white.

The master looked after the young man at every turn. He had even stopped acting like a deranged pervert, and was as obedient as could be.

The academy's assassins were disgruntled. They huddled together, came up with a plan, and decided to teach the young man a lesson that day.

Martial artists settled things with their fists, naturally, so a crowd of assassins ushered the young man onto the arena, then turned around and grinned wickedly.

On the arena, the assassin focused all his attention on facing the young man, whom the master had taken such a special interest in. Sweat beaded on his forehead as he feared the other would knock him off the arena in a single move and humiliate him.

In the middle of the tense atmosphere, the young man raised a hand, then toppled to the ground with a smack. In a soft, delicate voice, he said, "Ah~ I lost."

The assassin was dumbfounded. Why wasn't he playing by the rules?

But the next moment, their master appeared on the arena.

The assassin: "..." Just don't hit me in the face.

After dealing with the assassins, Liu Baixu sidled up to Xia Xuduan as if seeking praise. He fidgeted and conjured a little red flower. "Big brother, do you still like me today?"

Xia Xuduan: "Not interested."

In a teahouse, a storyteller was spinning a tale about how the court official Qin Sui and the master of White Phoenix Academy were both in love with the same person, chasing after them and casting aside all dignity.

The crowd in the hall began wildly speculating about the person's identity. Just who could make two such powerful figures fall head over heels?

Xia Xuduan sipped his tea with a weary air and sighed inwardly. "I should have listened and stopped picking men up off the street. Now I can't even run away."

Qin Sui sat beside him, pouring tea, jealous and petty. "That academy master is no good. Boss Xia should stay away from him."

Xia Xuduan: "..." What is wrong with you? Aren't you two the same person? Aren't you afraid you'll have an allergic reaction from being jealous of yourself?
