Chapter 274 - 269: Get Your Runaway Face Back
CHAPTER 274: CHAPTER 269: GET YOUR RUNAWAY FACE BACK
Then she saw Nangong Mo’s face grow even colder...
Yun Ran felt a twitch in her brow, and in a flash of wit, tentatively asked, "Hairstyle?"
The only response she got from Nangong Mo was a cold snort, full of resentment.
Yun Ran’s mouth twitched, she was momentarily speechless.
[Looks like I guessed it right! Isn’t it just a change of hairstyle? Does he really need someone to praise it? How childish!]
Yun Ran cleared her throat, readying herself to offer some half-hearted compliments, but before she could, a cold and arrogant voice whispered in her ear:
"The lord’s hairband."
"Huh?"
Yun Ran was taken aback, a little slow on the uptake, when she was met with a cool, penetrating gaze from Nangong Mo, his thin lips slightly pursed.
"The lord’s hairband."
"..."
This time Yun Ran understood, and realized the reason for his unusual behavior today, but she was speechless, her heart utterly discomposed, unable to find peace.
So that’s why he’s sitting here! It’s all because she played with Shen Mubai’s hairband the other day?!
"Lin Wanyue."
Yun Ran was still speechless, when a strand of that enchanting voice floated into her ear again, carrying an implicit threat.
Yun Ran looked down at his unparalleled handsome face and couldn’t help but rub her forehead, unable to bear the sight.
"Lin Wanyue, do you want the bridal chamber tonight?"
"..."
Upon hearing these words, Yun Ran didn’t hesitate and quickly grabbed his silky white hairband, giving it two strong tugs.
[Pretty sturdy, huh!]
Nangong Mo’s handsome face turned black as his eyes squinted dangerously, "Lin Wanyue, wrong posture."
Upon hearing this, Yun Ran couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
[Does pulling a hairband really require a particular posture? Such high standards, huh?]
[Dare to make another demand? Believe it or not, I’ll yank all your hair out?]
"Lin Wanyue, does the lord need to teach you how to play?"
As those chilling words floated into her ears, Yun Ran suddenly realized that her waistband was being grabbed.
The threat was too obvious!
Yun Ran felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her body stiffened on the spot, not daring to move.
"Hmm?"
The man squinted his eyes, tugging her waistband lightly, making Yun Ran’s heart tremble, "Play, play, play, I’ll play, Nangong Mo, calm down! Don’t be impulsive!"
Then she dared not pull his hairband with force anymore, though she wanted to yank his hair, she gritted her teeth and refrained!
[A hero does not suffer immediate losses! This girl can bend and stretch! I’ll yank all your hair out later...]
"Stand in front of the lord."
"..."
[So many demands! You insatiable bastard!]
With her waistband under his control, Yun Ran had no choice but to endure it, smiling and nodding, "Alright~ coming right over!"
As soon as Yun Ran stood there, he said again, "Too far, come closer to the lord."
Yun Ran: "..."
[I’m holding back!]
"Alright lord, is this okay now?"
"Closer."
"..."
[Closer? Why don’t you just say to stand on your feet?]
Yun Ran stood almost pressing against his leg, fortunately, Nangong Mo didn’t pester her to come even closer.
But he said:
"Bend your body forward a bit more."
Yun Ran almost couldn’t help but slap him on the head.
She gritted her teeth, trying her best to put on a gentle and bright smile, leaning her body forward slightly.
But he still wasn’t satisfied.
"Come a little closer."
Yun Ran: "..."
[How about pretending to lose balance and head-butting him to death?!]
Just as this thought occurred, Nangong Mo’s hand, which was holding her waistband, suddenly exerted force.
Yun Ran, unable to keep her balance, suddenly fell into his arms, her slender and soft waist immediately encircled by a pair of iron-like arms.
"Lin Wanyue, the lord asked you to play with the hairband, and instead, you threw yourself into his arms?"
Suddenly hearing the man’s low laughter in her ear, Yun Ran couldn’t believe her ears!
How can someone be so shameless!
Wasn’t it him who suddenly tugged her waistband and made her fall?!
The one with ulterior motives was clearly him, how did it become her throwing herself into his arms?
"But the lord is magnanimous and won’t hold your audacity against you."
Yun Ran: "..."
[Ha! I’m truly grateful to you!]
The man glanced at her face, full of murderous intent, then curled his lips with a low, charming voice, "Even if you wish to do something else, that can be arranged."
Yun Ran: "..."
[I just want to twist your stupid head off! To see what’s going on in that brain of yours!]
Feeling utterly exasperated inside, Yun Ran struggled several times but couldn’t break free of his grip, and couldn’t help but curse him softly, "Nangong Mo, you shameless bastard, let me go!"
The man raised an eyebrow, calm and composed, "It was you who threw yourself into the lord’s arms, why should I let you go?"
Yun Ran: "..."
"Twisting your words and distorting the truth without a conscience, aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
"Not afraid."
"..."
"In such a beautiful night, how can the lord refuse when the beloved invite so warmly?"
"???"
Hearing the constant demonic voice in her ear, Yun Ran was startled and widened her eyes, taking quite a while to find her voice again, "Nangong Mo, please find your runaway face first."
The man raised an eyebrow, speaking with no regret, "It’s lost, so be it, I don’t need it."
Yun Ran: "..."
[Is that something a person would say?]
Then she saw a certain someone take out a small booklet from a hidden compartment on the side of the wheelchair.
He opened it and flipped through it leisurely with one hand, his exquisitely handsome face maintaining an air of noble elegance.
Yun Ran caught a glimpse by accident and saw what was on the booklet, her face suddenly turned red, and her eyes widened slightly.
It’s unbelievable how shameless someone could be!
Earlier, seeing his noble and elegant demeanor, one would think he was reading some martial art mental method or a book of sages!
Yun Ran covered her eyes with one hand and smacked towards the booklet in his hand, "Nangong Mo, stop being so shameless!"
Nangong Mo raised his hand, evading Yun Ran’s assault, and with an amused smile, he said, "The lord is just reading a book, how is that shameless?"
Book?
Don’t you know what kind of book you’re reading?
Yun Ran was exasperated, "If you want to read, go do it somewhere else, and let this lady go!"
The man remained shameless, nonchalantly turning the pages, "The lord didn’t ask you to look."
"Besides, it was you who threw yourself into the lord’s arms."
Yun Ran: "..."
[Don’t be angry... What if Silver dies from anger? Just pretend it’s a dog barking!]
Even with her eyes shut, unable to see that infuriatingly handsome face, she couldn’t stop the assault of that demonic voice.
"Lin Wanyue, the lord finds this position quite nice."
"???"
He actually said it aloud?!
Yun Ran’s eyelashes trembled, eyes tightly closed: Can’t hear, can’t hear, can’t hear!
"This position also looks nice."
"..."
It’s a dog barking!
"This one seems a bit challenging?"
"..."
"Oh? Can it really be done this way too?"
The voice was filled with curiosity, as if he had opened a gateway to a new world...
Yun Ran: "..."
[May a bolt of lightning strike him! Don’t let him continue to cause harm to the world!]
