Chapter 481: Do You Despise Me Now?
Although he received a slap, the man remained composed, exuding a lazy yet noble elegance. He cast a sidelong glance at Yun Ran and drawled, "A gentleman uses words, only a scoundrel resorts to blows."
Unfortunately, Yun Ran never took being called a scoundrel as an insult. "Stop changing the subject. Hurry up and tell me, are you hiding some kind of plot from me?"
"Really want to know?"
"Obviously!"
The man slightly raised an eyebrow, which earned him an eye roll from Yun Ran, plus another slap!
Nangong Mo: "..."
He raised a hand and leisurely tidied his hair that had been messed up. He said in a calm voice, "Since you’re so eager to know, I’ll tell you."
Upon hearing this, Yun Ran snorted softly, "That’s more like it! Out with it!"
"But, you need to give me a kiss. No, two. Still not enough. Three? Doesn’t seem like much? Four? Five?"
"..."
Watching someone furrow their brow and seriously mutter to themselves, Yun Ran held her forehead, not knowing what to say...
So, she gave his wheelchair a light kick, "Roll away, I don’t want to know anymore!"
You have to admire the wheelchair’s exquisite design, as it rolled smoothly over the thick snow.
Nangong Mo: "..."
Did I say I wanted to roll away?
He lifted a finger and gently pressed on the wheelchair’s armrest, bringing the gliding wheelchair to a steady stop in the snow.
Just then, as Yun Ran called out to him from behind, Nangong Mo instinctively turned his head to look back, "What is it..."
The word "it" had yet to leave his mouth when a large, round snowball came flying straight at him, accompanied by the howling wind, and landed with a "bang" on his head, scattering countless tiny snowflakes...
"Hahaha..."
In the snow, Yun Ran laughed so hard that she doubled over, unable to stand up straight, looking quite pleased with herself.
"Serves you right for being smug! And arrogant! Can’t laugh now, can you? Hahaha..."
Nangong Mo raised his hand, brushed away a few snowflakes that had fallen on his lashes, and lazily leaned back against the chair. He composedly watched the laughing girl with a slightly upturned mouth, exuding an elegant ease, as if he was in a good mood.
Seeing him like this, Yun Ran’s laughter eventually faded.
[Seriously! Why does he look like he’s enjoying a performance?! He was the one covered in snowflakes, yet it feels like... Am I the fool here?!]
The man slightly raised an eyebrow, his exquisite appearance and grace becoming even more dignified and mesmerizing amidst the fluttering snowflakes, akin to an ascetic immortal atop a snowy peak.
Despite the picturesque scene, Yun Ran felt a bit frustrated.
"Hey! Why are you laughing? Can’t you at least act like you’ve been hit? Was the snowball not big enough? Not loud enough?"
The man, lips subtly curling, his eyes filled with deep amusement, said, "It’s just a snowball, you think I couldn’t dodge it? I let it hit me on purpose, just to tease you."
Yun Ran: "..."
Although what he said might be true, but, but...
"Hmph! Who are you looking down on?"
Quick as a flash, Yun Ran bent down to scoop up a handful of snow and, in a whirlwind, dashed to Nangong Mo, pressing the snow onto his outrageously handsome face.
[Hmph! Let’s see you dare stand up to dodge!]
Feeling quite smug, Yun Ran raised her chin defiantly, "How does it feel? Fun, isn’t it? Oh Lord~"
"..."
Nangong Mo gave her a sidelong look, elegantly brushed away the snowflakes from his face, and mused as if to himself, "Maybe I should dig a pit in the snow and bury her."
Upon hearing this, Yun Ran couldn’t help but want to roll her eyes.
"Nangong Mo, you’re a cripple now! You want to bury me? What are you thinking?"
As soon as Yun Ran finished speaking, she heard him let out a long sigh, his tone chilling, "You despise me because I’m a cripple, is that it?"
Yun Ran: "???"
"The things you said before, were they just lies to deceive me?"
"???"
Words? What words?
Yun Ran, utterly dumbfounded, looked at him. [What nonsense is this man spouting again? Did the snowball mess up his head?]
"Words about vows and unchanging love, holding hands forever, finding a soulmate and never parting."
"The murmurs are still fresh in my ears, yet they were lies just to make me happy."
"So you despise me because I’m a cripple, then who do you like? The Crown Prince? Or Shen Mubai?"
Yun Ran: "......"
