“What are you doing?”

The man’s voice came from above. It was low, cold, and seductive.

The corners of her stiff mouth twitched. She didn’t even have the courage to look up at him. She just stared at his perfectly sculpted jaw.

“Well, if I said that my legs were weak and I fell… would you believe me?”

The man tapped on her arm, which was wrapped around his leg like an octopus, and raised his eyebrows slightly. “Fell?”

Yun Ran was speechless.

Although she didn’t believe this nonsense herself, she still braced herself and nodded.

“Yes! I had an instinctive reaction to falling and hugging your thigh was a lifeline.”

From Nangong Mo’s angle, the woman’s long and curly eyelashes flickered like butterfly wings. She clearly looked guilty.

Ha, what a ridiculous woman! What was she up to now?

“Now you can loosen your claws.”

I want to let go of them too! But they won’t listen to me!

“Um… my hands are numb. I can’t let go. Can you wait a little longer? Just a little longer!”

Looking at the girl’s pitiful face, Nangong Mo’s eyes flickered. He pursed his lips and said faintly,

“Do you want me to help chop off your claws?”

Yun Ran was speechless.

What about human nature? Did it run away from home? Is that what humans say?

“Well, don’t bother. I’ll chop it myself later.”

Nangong Mo was speechless.

Stupid bird! That’s enough! If you don’t let go, I’ll be killed by the King of Dogs as a lecher! You have to be kind as a bird, or you’ll be struck by lightning!

No! As an outstanding immortal bird, I have to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon! Oh, this aura is too pure! I have to absorb more!

Nangong Mo, who had clearly heard the conversation between the woman and the bird, suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked around sharply. The voices were ethereal, and only the breeze was blowing, and the sunlight was slightly warm.

Finally, his gaze fell on Yun Ran. He frowned slightly, his eyes dark and flickering.

At this moment, Yun Ran was thinking about the 108 ways to cook the immortal bird.

Damn bird, do you think you’re a vixen who absorbs human yang energy? Wait, if you absorb his spiritual energy like this, will he die from anger?

Ignorant! How can I, an Immortal Venerable, be such an evil thing? How can I use such an evil method? Don’t worry, this method won’t harm his body at all. However, why are you so concerned about him? Aren’t you still waiting to inherit his silver?

Yun Ran rolled her eyes inwardly. Those were two different things, okay? She was a lady with integrity. She only wanted money, not life!

Can I trust your words?

A certain immortal bird instantly exploded. Believe it or not, I’ll cast an immortal spell and let you transform into a beast that will pounce on him and ravage him. Then, you’ll be killed by him!

Yun Ran was speechless.

The images described by a certain bird appeared in her mind. The corners of Yunran’s mouth twitched and she almost vomited blood and died!

Damn bird! How dare you ruin my image as a lady! Do you believe that I’ll kill myself? Let’s die together!

Tsk! I, as an immortal bird will continue to sleep for a thousand years at most, while you, a small ghost, will be reduced to ashes!

Yun Ran was speechless.

She was so angry!

Think of your little coffers. Are you really willing to leave them behind?

Think about your beautiful senior brothers. Are you really willing to die?

And this beautiful man you’re hugging right now can be said to be a peerless beauty. Don’t you want to do something to him before you die?

Just as Yun Ran was about to vomit blood from depression, she finally felt her body lighten and her limbs regain their freedom.

Yun Ran withdrew her arms almost as quickly as she could and sprang to her feet.

However, this time, his legs were really numb. Before she could stabilize herself, she fell down again. This time, she lay on Nangong Mo’s lap.

Will she be seen as being sinful? Will he believe that she didn’t do it on purpose? Will he slap her to death?

Yun Ran quickly got off him and held the back of the chair to barely stand.

“Well, this time my legs were really numb … you’ll believe it … won’t you?”

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and did not comment. “Numb again?”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

“They won’t be dumb if they are broken.”

Yun Ran was incredulous.

Can you be any more human?! You’re so brutal. No girl will like you in the future!

Only then did Yunran realize that this was Nangong Mo’s room, and the clothes she was wearing… had been changed.

She had not seen a single maid in this residence since yesterday…

Yun Ran instantly lost her composure and asked tentatively,

“Your Highness, after I fainted last night, did the maid help me change my clothes?”

Nangong Mo thought of something and his expression froze.

He pursed his lips a little awkwardly and made a low sound of agreement. Even his voice sounded stiff.

Yun Ran took in his subtle change. Her beautiful eyes narrowed as she looked at him coldly.

He’s feeling guilty!

“By the way, Your Highness, you didn’t do anything beastly to me last night while I was unconscious, did you?”

Nangong Mo was silent.

He’d accidentally tore her clothes and saw some… did that count?

The man pursed his thin lips slightly. His side profile was perfect, but it was stiff and uncomfortable.

Yun Ran was even more certain of her guess. Something must have happened that she didn’t know about.

However, before she could curse, she heard Nangong Mo say leisurely,

“You’re my consort. Even if I do something to you, it’s only right and proper.”

Yun Ran was speechless.

Son of a bitch! Shameless! Worse than a dog!

“On the other hand, why didn’t you sleep in the middle of the night? Why did you pretend to be a lecherous ghost and sneak into my room?”

Is this payback?

Do you have to deliberately emphasize those words?

“If the assassin hadn’t attacked at that time, would the consort have done that indecent thing to me?”

“Cough, cough!”

Yun Ran choked and coughed until she was about to cry.

“Are you anxious because I said that?”

Yun Ran was speechless.

This shameless person! His words are really shocking! In terms of shamelessness, I admit defeat!

“Well, the weather is really good today! Shall I push you out to bask in the sun?”

“Does a female ghost dare to bask in the sun?”

Yun Ran was dumbfounded.

She secretly clenched her fists and resisted the urge to pounce on him and bite him to death.

Bird, can you turn into a ghost and bite him to death? No, let’s just molest him!

No, my magic power has yet to recover. Therefore, you have to work hard to do missions and accumulate merit points.

What do I need you for? Stupid bird!

Tsk! You won’t be living your wretched life if not for me! Besides, you can molest him yourself.

Get lost!

Nangong Mo was speechless.
