Firstly, his sleep quality was never good, and secondly, his heart was racing too fast for him to fall asleep.
With eyes wide open, he watched as the night transformed into day. Quan Hanting unexpectedly felt an inexplicable sense of excitement, quite different from the usual restlessness after insomnia.
It was as if the wonderful sensation from that time still lingered on his lips.
Such a feeling was both unfamiliar and novel to Quan Hanting.
The wall clock’s hour hand pointed at six o’clock. He turned and sat up, half-leaning against the headboard, picking up his phone to call someone.
After a long beep, a hoarse “Hello” came from the other end. That person didn’t appear to be in the best mood.
“It’s me, Third Brother.”
“Sixth Brother?” Hu Zhibei, who was far away in England, instantly lost all drowsiness and sat up from his bed. “Is something wrong? Did you ask Mr. Zou to check on you? I’ll book the earliest flight…”
“No need, I’m fine,” Quan Hanting interrupted him.
Hu Zhibei clearly breathed a sigh of relief. “Then, why did you call?”
He was in England, and it was currently morning there. Unless it was something very urgent, Quan Hanting wouldn’t disturb him at this hour.
“Third Brother, I have a question to ask.”
“What do you want to ask?” Suppressing his surprise, Hu Zhibei tried to keep his voice calm.
If Quan Hanting was using the word “ask,” it seemed that the question wasn’t so simple.
Just as Hu Zhibei was poised and ready to provide a perfect answer with his high intelligence, the question came—
Quan Hanting asked, “What are the remaining moves from the ‘Eighteen Ways to Woo a Girl’ you taught me last time?”
Huh!
Hu Zhibei was momentarily dumbfounded. He had prepared himself for a long time, expecting a conversation about various topics, but to his surprise, Quan Hanting didn’t bring up language, literature, or any other subject. Instead, he asked just this one question?
Third Lord thought to himself, “Sixth Brother, did you ask the wrong question?”
However, the reality was clear. Especially when Quan Hanting didn’t get an immediate response and repeated the question, Hu Zhibei finally fully believed that his ears weren’t playing tricks on him. Quan Hanting, this monk of a man, was actually asking him how to—woo, girls!
In fact, he had asked this question before.
At that time, Hu Zhibei was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and he happened to stumble upon a popular idol drama. The male lead was a cold and emotionally inept CEO who secretly liked the female lead but didn’t know how to pursue her, leading to many comedic situations.
Hu Zhibei didn’t like these kinds of brainless dramas and couldn’t help but criticize it, saying—–
“How can a guy who stumbles over his words and lacks wit be the main character? Seriously! If things continue like this, not only will the female lead reject him, but the audience will also pity him.”
“What should he do then?” At that time, Quan Hanting was sitting nearby, sipping his tea, and casually asked.
Hu Zhibei didn’t pay much attention and cleared his throat. “Based on my extensive experience as a veteran in this field, I’ve summarized it as the ‘Eighteen Ways to Woo a Girl’…”
The first move was having frequent coincidental encounters.
Their chances of meeting weren’t too many, but they weren’t too few either. For example, last night was a destined encounter that wasn’t deliberately arranged. Fate had come, and nothing could stop it
The second step was to be open-hearted with one’s actions and make sure one’s wallet stays well-stocked.
Giving a house and a roof made of glazed tiles, was that generous enough? However, she still turned him down.
The third move was to play the hero and she would offer herself.
He saved her, but she didn’t offer herself in return.
The fourth move was to be dominant when the time was right.
A forceful embrace, does that count as being dominant?
The fifth move was to be gentle when the time was right.
He wiped her sweat, washed her face, and even helped her tie her hair. He had originally planned to help her change into pajamas, but she didn’t allow him to…
Well, it’s a bit regrettable..
