"What do you mean?" Jason always felt that there was something hidden in Harper's expression, as if something else was
playing in her head. He suddenly remembered that she had mentioned the gay trend the other day.
Harper gave the kite to Forsythia and whispered in Jason's ear, "I have a collection of the thirty-six peaches-sharing(*) skills.
Would you like to see them? I promise it will blow your mind." (*Peach-sharing is an ancient jargon in China which refers to gay
activities)
"Peaches-sharing? What is it?" Jason asked with curiosity. It was not his fault that he was cut off from the world. He had never
visited any brothel or gay place. There was no chance for him to know all about such gay stuff.
"You can come to me some other day. I'll give it to you as a gift, and I promise you'll be satisfied," said Harper, revealing that she
knew everything quite well.
"A gift?" Jason remembered nothing except for the word "gift". Thinking curiously what gift it would be, he nodded quickly.
"Okay, I'll be waiting eagerly for your gift," he said plainly.
Harper thought, 'I know you two are gay. But I pity Francis for being a gay, despite being so handsome. After all, he could seduce
any woman with his charm. Jason is not too bad as well. Nowadays, it seems that women's rivals in love are not just women, but
also men!'
Being immersed in the joy of receiving a gift from Harper, Jason failed to notice the expression in her eyes. "Draw a kite for me
too," he said.
"Okay, no problem. Let's have a competition to see who can fly the kite higher." Harper quickly drew a picture for Jason. The
picture she drew this time was not a naked lady, but two handsome men!
Jason got stunned to see the picture. He demanded, "I want yours!"
"Okay, no problem. I'll give you mine, and this one belongs to me." Harper handed the picture to Anabel and said, "Make a kite
so that I can compete with Jason."
Without delay, Anabel put down the plate in her hand and left to make a kite. Jason was curious and sat next to her to see what
she was doing. But the more he looked at the handsome men in the picture, the more he felt they were familiar. But after a closer
look, he got a feeling that they were not familiar at all.
Compared with Harper, Anabel was an expert in kite making and completed the process soon. She tied the kite line and Jason
just snatched it from her. "Forget it. I'll fly this one."
Harper didn't bother about it at all. "Fine, just fly it."
When Francis walked in, what he saw was Harper and Jason competing against each other, and Cynthia sitting quietly and
watching over.
Francis wore a bland smile. With sharp eyes, he soon saw Harper's kite with the portrait of a naked lady and his smile became
helpless. When his eyes fell on Jason's kite, the corner of his mouth twitched strangely. The kite flown by Jason had a picture of
two handsome men, who were leaning close to each other, but they both just showed a side face. He was familiar with one of the
side faces, and it was Jason's.
"Jason, who drew the picture on your kite?" Francis was sure that Jason wouldn't picture himself in such an improper manner.
This was something that could even damage his dignity.
Jason was still busy competing with Harper. "Leave me alone. This is a tight competition. If I win, she will cook for me today, and
if I lose, a turtle will be painted on me."
Francis kneaded his temples. Since his kite was flying high in the sky, Jason didn't want to get distracted and lose the
competition. Francis then looked at Harper, who was flying her kite with a smile on her face. It didn't look like her usual gentle
smile, but it seemed as if her schemes had succeeded.
"All right. I'll talk to you after you win," Francis said to Jason, and then immediately walked to Harper and watched her flying the
kite. The picture of the naked lady on Harper's kite was looking sultry, but the one on Jason's kite was even more obscene. Even
though the people in the Bright Dynasty were open-minded, there wasn't much support for the gay trend. However, Jason
paraded himself as an example.
Francis thought of every man around Jason for a pair. He began to suspect that Jason might not be straight. The reason that
Jason was willing to give up his crush on his junior fellow Harper so easily was because he found out that the one he loved was
not her, but a man. But who was that man he loved?
"Harper, the group left for peacemaking would reach the Great Jade Kingdom soon." Regardless of other thoughts, the sole
purpose of Francis' visit today was to observe Harper's reaction.
"Really? That's great! I'm sure Matthew would be back as soon as they succeed." Harper controlled the kite line in her hand
while speaking.
"If Emperor Rolando agrees to the marriage alliance, it will be good for us. I just fear that he might use this opportunity to attack
Uncle Matthew. After all, everyone knows that he is the sharp sword of the Bright Dynasty. Without him, our country will be like a
tiger whose teeth are pulled out. I am very worried about that."
Harper didn't change her expression. "If he gets easily killed by Emperor Rolando, then he doesn't deserve to be called Matthew.
Don't worry, Francis, he will be fine. By the way, Lady Sherry's maid has asked me to her palace."
"You just ignore her. Leave it to me," Francis responded, his eyes lighting up.
