Chapter 180: Chapter 180
Seeing her silent, the man chuckled lightly, "I’m a gentleman of taste, not someone low. How could I take advantage when you’re ?"
Yun Ran rolled her eyes coldly at him, "Dare you! I’ll cut you to pieces! Skin you alive, pull out your tendons, grind your bones to dust!"
The man automatically ignored her latter words, blinking softly, "Dare I? Why wouldn’t I dare?"
"In this wild mountain, deserted and remote, if you scream for help, no one would come. Moreover, you can’t move at all. If I really wanted to do something, could you resist?"
The man’s laughter grew more joyful.
"You’re like a little rabbit that has fallen into a wolf’s den, at my mercy."
[Damn it! I’ve never been bullied in my life! Not avenging this would be disgraceful!]
Looking at the girl’s angry little face, which was a bit more flushed than before, the man couldn’t help but tease, "But don’t worry, with your figure, I don’t have any ideas."
[Poison him till he’s mute! Then kill him! Revive him, and sell him to Qingfeng Building to be a host daily!]
Underneath the mask, the man’s handsome face stiffened, a drop of cold sweat slid down his brow. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ NoveI(F)ire.net
His thin lips pressed lightly, he stopped teasing her, but instead, carried her into the bamboo house, placing her gently on the bamboo bed.
Because of the wound on her back, Yun Ran was sitting on the bed.
The man reached to pull off the outer robe draped over her, Yun Ran cast a cold glance at him, "What are you doing?"
"Do you want to wear my clothes all the time?"
"Since you like them, it wouldn’t be a problem. But wouldn’t you feel hot with a quilt on top?"
Glancing at the quilt in his hand, Yun Ran snorted coldly, "Who likes wearing it? Take it away!"
The man chuckled, pulled the quilt over her, and said softly, "Rest for a bit, I’ll make something for you to eat."
Yun Ran closed her eyes, not wanting to pay him any attention.
After taking a few steps, the man turned back, leaning over, Yun Ran immediately opened her eyes and glared at him, "What do you want now?"
"Why are you so wary as if protecting yourself from a beast? I’ve said I have no intentions towards you."
Yun Ran snorted softly, "Weren’t you going to cook? Why are you back?"
"To unlock your acupoints."
"Are you really that kind?"
"I am, but you have to behave and not move around, so you don’t pull your wound and hurt yourself."
[Who do you expect to behave? She’s not a dog!]
"If my wounds are affected, that’s my business. Why should you restrict my movements?"
The man reached out and patted her hair, coaxing softly, "Be good, listen!"
[That feeling again! He must be Nangong Mo!]
[And that familiar feeling every time I see him... it must be him!]
[Later, when he unlocks me, I’ll catch him off guard and rip off his mask to see for myself!]
The man’s fingers paused slightly, the tips lightly brushed her cheek, giving it a gentle pinch.
Yun Ran: "...Take your paw away!"
The man chuckled softly, stepped back a couple steps, flicked his fingers lightly, and the finger wind unlocked her acupoints from a distance.
[This bastard! Did he see through my thoughts?! How cunning!]
"You be good and rest here; I’ll be right back."
The man turned around, his lips curved in a light smile, "What? Can’t bear to see me leave?"
[This shameless rogue aura is exactly like that damned man!]
Is it really that obvious?
Looks like the little girl really cares about him; otherwise, how could she be so familiar with him?
The man’s mood improved instantly, he raised an eyebrow, "What do you want?"
If it didn’t hurt to move her wounds, Yun Ran really wanted to pounce and give him a couple of slaps, followed by some kicks.
"Didn’t you say you’d take off your mask after healing? It’s time to fulfill your promise."
Upon hearing this, the man’s voice was full of doubt, "What? Take off the mask? When did I say I’d take it off?"
Yun Ran could hardly believe her ears.
She could even guess his smug expression under the mask!
"It was—you—who—said—it! Are—you——denying—it?"
Word by word, Yun Ran almost gritted her teeth to pieces, yet someone looked innocent, "When did I say that? The mask fits so well, why would I take it off?"
"You must be mistaken."
[Not only denying it, but even having the nerve to bite back?!]
Yun Ran took a deep breath, resisting the urge to knock her head against his, gritting her teeth in hatred, "But—you—swore—an—oath—!"
"Yes! On your integrity!"
The man shrugged, even the mask couldn’t hide his innocence, "But I don’t have integrity! What’s the oath for? You must be mistaken!"
With thousands and thousands of words in the world, there wasn’t a suitable one to describe her mood at the moment.
It took quite a while for her to barely calm down, glaring at him fiercely, "You bastard! A deceitful, unreliable bastard!"
The man blinked, his pleasant voice incredibly irritating, "You’ve already said I’m a bastard, yet you still believe a bastard’s words? How adorably foolish!"
[Heavens! Let a thunderbolt strike him down!]
[How can there be such a shameless person? He’s clearly a scourge to all humanity!]
Relax, I will only be a scourge to you.
"Speaking of which, you little girl always think of taking my mask off, you don’t have improper thoughts about me, do you?"
[Really don’t want to bother with him! Just treat it as a dog barking!]
"Even if you do, it’s useless. I already have three hundred concubines in the manor, I’m not considering expanding my harem for now."
He really left, Yun Ran watched his tall figure outside the door, narrowing her eyes in thought.
Just can’t believe I won’t find a chance to remove his mask.
She’s now more and more convinced that he is that shameless Nangong Wulai.
Soon the man returned, holding a bowl of steaming millet porridge.
"Drink some porridge first to fill up, the chicken soup on the stove will take a little while longer."
Perhaps worried about her ambushing him to remove the mask? While Yun Ran wasn’t paying attention, he sent a finger wind flying over from a distance, once again sealing her acupoints.
So speechless, she even wanted to curse.
Receiving Yun Ran’s chilling gaze, the man spread his hands, "Don’t look at me like that, it’s also to prevent you from moving around and hurting yourself."
[You big liar! Do you even believe your own lies?]
The person: Although there are other reasons, this reason is also true!
Yun Ran squinted at him, "You’re so afraid of me taking off your mask, are you feeling guilty?"
"Afraid I’ll see your true face!"
His straightforwardness left Yun Ran momentarily stunned, her eyes twitched, her gaze tightly fixed on him, "Are you admitting it? Are you Nangong Mo?"
The man sat down beside the bed, reached out to lightly pinch her cheek, and laughed softly, "No."
Yun Ran frowned, "Impossible! You are he!"
"Why are you so certain? Is it just because I called out your name before?"
Yun Ran: [It seems like it was indeed that sentence that triggered it, but it’s not entirely because of that. But I can’t just say, because you said: ’Lin Wanyue, you should be good’, right?]
