CHAPTER 341: CHAPTER 325: YOU OWE THIS LORD A PROPER COMPENSATION

Yun Ran’s expression froze, slightly speechless, "What did you just call me?!"

[How can this person just casually change people’s names?! Did he get my consent?!]

The man looked at her with dark, cool eyes and sneered, "Don’t try to change the subject. You were caught by me hanging out at the riverside with your ex, admiring the moon, reminiscing, and enjoying the view. Aren’t you the least bit guilty?"

Yun Ran: "..."

[This is hilarious! You don’t feel guilty eavesdropping on others, so why should I feel guilty? I haven’t even done anything wrong!]

Nangong Mo narrowed his eyes dangerously, thinking she wanted to divorce him to accept Shen Mubai, yet still claimed she did nothing wrong?

He reached out and tapped her on the head, "Yun Xiaoran, don’t you have anything to explain?"

"....."

[Did he just naturally tap like that?!]

Yun Ran slapped his hand away and glared at him, "If you break it, you pay for it, okay? Are you jealous of this girl being smarter than you?"

The man sneered and arrogantly threw out two words:

"Explain."

[Explain my foot!]

Yun Ran rolled her eyes at him, "Since you were eavesdropping, then you should know nothing happened between us! Clean and innocent, what’s there to explain?"

The man frowned and coldly reminded Yun Ran:

"That woman voluntarily suggested giving Shen Mubai back to you, sparking old feelings and continuing your past relationship, and you gladly agreed!"

Hearing the last line, spoken through gritted teeth, Yun Ran blinked innocently: Did she gladly agree?! Did she?

Just as she was about to explain, he coldly continued:

"Not only that, you were impatiently urging her to write the separation letter so she could leave as soon as possible, so you could soon fly together with Shen Mubai!"

Yun Ran: "......"

[This is too much! Is he over-interpreting this?! Was I that impatient?! Was I?!]

"Nangong Mo, would you please pat your conscience and repeat that I’ve ever said those nonsense about flying together with Shen Mubai and rekindling past feelings from the beginning to the end?"

The man looked aloof, unhappily sneered, "You eagerly pushing her to write the separation letter is the best proof."

Yun Ran: "..."

[You make it sound so reasonable that I have nothing to say in return...]

"If it weren’t for still having Shen Mubai in your heart, fantasizing about reuniting with him, why would you agree to that woman’s proposal?"

"Yun Xiaoran, Yun Xiaoran, I used to think you were a fool for love, but now I realize that not only are you infatuated but also fickle! Fickle and indecisive, loving the new and discarding the old, constantly changing affections, betraying and ending relationships!"

Yun Ran: "......"

Listening to the accusations sounded like being struck by eighteen bolts of heavenly lightning at once, leaving her three souls and seven spirits fluttering and chaotic in the wind!

If he continued, Yun Ran feared she might go crazy...

"Alright, Nangong Mo, can you shut up now! Accusing a righteous and kind girl like that, won’t your conscience... forget it, where would you even have a conscience!"

"I had her write the separation letter just because I couldn’t stand her pretentiousness, wanting to scare her. It doesn’t mean I’m accepting Shen Mubai!"

"Just because I asked her to write the separation letter doesn’t mean I want to accept Shen Mubai, these are two totally different things, okay?"

"Anyway, did you really think she would willingly step back and give up on Shen Mubai? She was merely putting on a show for Shen Mubai."

Yun Ran thought she had explained it very clearly; even a dog should understand!

Yet, someone cast a chilly glance her way, sneering, "You little girl can talk circles around anyone, fabricating stories, turning black into white, and I’m not buying your lies!"

Yun Ran: "......"

[You damn guy! Is this a challenge against my character? Too much!]

Suppressing the urge to bash him with a brick, Yun Ran rolled her eyes at him and huffed, "Nangong Mo, stop being unreasonable, I’m not even holding your stalking and eavesdropping against you, do you still have the nerve to act out here?"

"I’m being unreasonable and acting out?"

The man narrowed his eyes dangerously, giving her a ghostly glance, before taking out a letter from his chest, unfolding it leisurely.

Yun Ran immediately spotted the dog sketch on the envelope...

[Uh... A break-up letter? And he carries it with him? What’s he planning?]

Then the voice, ghostly chilling with a hint of resentment, drifted into her ears.

"You wrote a break-up letter to me that day and then came to Qishan, only to secretly meet Shen Mubai that night, waiting for the separation. Hmph! Clearly premeditated!"

Yun Ran: "???"

Can I say this was purely coincidental?

She didn’t even know Shen Mubai would come, okay?

"The evidence is conclusive, irrefutable. Yun Xiaoran, what else do you have to say?"

"..."

Yun Ran silently looked up at the sky, unwilling to speak.

[Say what? What could I say? Even if I spoke, you wouldn’t believe it, you’d just accuse me of lying through my teeth!]

[Why are there such unreasonable people? Oh, heavens! Strike him with lightning already!]

"Nothing more to say? Then you better compensate me properly."

Stunned by his words, Yun Ran was simply speechless.

"Compensate? How about I compensate you with a bowl of poison? Poison you to death? Poison you mute? You choose."

The man looked at her with ghostly eyes, "I don’t drink poison, I eat people."

Yun Ran: "......"

As she was speechless, the man stretched his long arm, suddenly scooping her up towards the bed.

As she was suddenly lifted into the air, Yun Ran instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, softly protesting, "Hey, Nangong Mo, please continue pretending to be disabled and let go of this girl."

"Let you go? Didn’t you just agree to compensate me?"

"???"

Yun Ran glared at him, speechless, "Who agreed with you? Put me down..."

Yet before she could finish, she was tossed onto the bed.

Soft as the bedding was, Yun Ran was momentarily dazed by the unexpected toss.

"!!!"

"Nangong Mo, you bastard! Are you planning to murder this girl and marry someone new?!"

The man stood by the bed, slowly unbuttoning his clothes, raising an eyebrow with a faint smile as he looked at her, "Weren’t you the one who told me to put you down? What? Suddenly can’t bear to part with my embrace?"

Yun Ran: "......"

[Better to poison him mute, to make him a quiet, beautiful man—not only a feast for the eyes but pleasing to look at, unlike now, where he’s an annoyance.]

...

The next day, the sun was high, the sky was clear, and the weather was excellent.

According to the hunting rules, participants had to be divided into several small teams, with members decided by drawing lots.

After this process, half an hour later, Yun Ran found herself in the ninth group.

But the members of the ninth group, aside from Yun Yan and Xiao Xiao, left Yun Ran at a loss for words.

Shen Mubai, Yu Qingyan, Lin Ruoxue, Prince Rui, Qin Feng, Du Ziteng, Hao Duoyu, and a late-arriving Tenth Princess who arrived only last night.
