Chapter 162: Chapter 115: I Warn You, Don’t Secretly Take Advantage of Nuannuan in the Middle of the Night
"Are you really going to get in with us?"
Seeing him actually get on the bed, Si Xie’s eyes nearly popped out of his head. He was filled with rage, and if not for the fear of angering Jiang Yunnuan and getting kicked off the bed himself, he would have loved to punch this damned guy’s teeth out.
’Getting into someone else’s bed so casually... Fucking shameless!!!’
"You talk too much. If you’re not going to sleep, get off."
Fu Yuan seemed oblivious to the glare that wanted to flay him alive.
He replied nonchalantly, then leaned back and lay down. He didn’t have a pillow, but he didn’t care, simply pillowing his head on his arm as he lay on his side, watching Jiang Yunnuan.
Si Xie was on her left, Fu Yuan on her right.
Although it was her first time sharing a bed with two men, Jiang Yunnuan wasn’t the least bit embarrassed.
She no longer had the energy to care. After a few yawns, her eyelids grew heavy, her head felt fuzzy, and she was dead tired.
"Let’s sleep. We can talk about whatever it is tomorrow. I’m getting sleepy..."
She rubbed her eyes, lay down, and mumbled indistinctly.
Seeing the exhaustion in her eyes, Si Xie pressed his lips together, swallowing the words on the tip of his tongue. But he wasn’t about to let it go. He turned his head and glared fiercely at Fu Yuan, using an Energy Transmission.
"I’m warning you. Don’t you dare try to secretly take advantage of Nuannuan in the middle of the night. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what happens next."
’For Nuannuan’s sake, I’ll begrudgingly accept Fu Yuan sleeping in my bed. But that guy can forget about trying to pull anything more on the sly.’
Hearing this, Fu Yuan sneered, refusing to be outdone, and replied with his own Energy Transmission.
"And you? Are you going to take advantage of her? If you don’t want me to, then you’d better behave yourself. Whatever you do to her, I’ll do the same."
Si Xie: "..."
"You damned bastard, why do you have to compete with me over everything? You’re just a shameless lecher who’s only interested in her looks. How can you be the same as me? Can your feelings for Nuannuan even compare to mine?"
"Where were you when I started liking her? Don’t you understand that there’s a ’first come, first served’ rule in love? You’ll always be second to me."
Fu Yuan was unfazed and continued his powerful counterattack.
"You can’t say that. Back then, you were bullying her and going against her every day, weren’t you? Have you conveniently chosen to forget that? Back then, I was the one standing by her side, protecting her. Why can’t I compare myself to you??"
"If we’re really comparing, do you think you can win against Jun Yao? Or against Yan Chen? I don’t know why Yan Chen isn’t here, but once he comes back, I’m afraid you won’t be able to touch Nuannuan for the rest of your life."
"Instead of being wary of me, you should think about how you’re going to control your constant desire to cling to Nuannuan when Yan Chen returns. Otherwise, I’m afraid your little life will be in danger."
Hearing that name again, Si Xie frowned, a deep curiosity rising within him.
"Who is Yan Chen? You’re that wary of him?"
Hearing this, Fu Yuan chuckled.
"It seems you still don’t know who he is. What, you didn’t run into him when you came back this time? Speaking of which, where did he go? That guy used to be just like you, trying to monopolize Nuannuan all day long. Ever since he showed up, Nuannuan and I haven’t had a moment alone."
Si Xie: "..."
’I did run into him, but I was still in my Beast Form back then, and I had amnesia. My mind was a complete muddle, so I passed out before I could really get a good look at him.’
’When I woke up, the man was gone.’
’I only vaguely remember that the man was incredibly strong. He brought Nuannuan to the Underground Dark Prison by tearing through space.’
’The only reason Nuannuan was able to get me out of the Dark Prison safely must have been because of him.’
"He appeared after your accident. He has an Ultimate Venerable Cultivation and met Nuannuan when she accidentally stumbled into his Domain. You know how powerhouses are—proud, aloof, and very difficult to approach. He’s only a little gentle with Nuannuan. As for Ming Ye and me, he’s never even given us a proper look."
"You yourself want to monopolize Nuannuan, so what makes you think an Ultimate Venerable Stage Powerhouse would be willing to share with us?"
"What’s the point of you and I fighting until our heads are bloody? Yan Chen is the real enemy. Can you even compete with him?"
"When he gets back, if you still dare to monopolize Nuannuan like you are now, believe me, he’ll crush your inner core, beat you back into your Beast Form, and you’ll never be able to become human again in this lifetime. If he’s feeling ruthless, you might be annihilated, with not even dust remaining."
’Oh, I believe him. Of course I believe him!!!’
’If I had Ultimate Venerable Cultivation, I’d absolutely get rid of all the men around Nuannuan. And the first one to go would be this guy, Fu Yuan.’
At this thought, his expression shifted repeatedly, and his mind was in turmoil.
’An Ultimate Venerable... a terrifying existence who could shatter mountains and topple cities, who could move heaven and earth with a wave of a hand. How did Nuannuan get tangled up with such an untouchable titan?’
’No wonder Jun Yao left. He must have been devastated by such a massive power gap and gone off to his Cultivation like crazy.’
’Otherwise, with Jun Yao’s intense possessiveness, he would’ve offended that Ultimate Venerable to death and been eliminated long ago if he’d stayed by Nuannuan’s side.’
’Being unable to control his possessiveness, leaving to focus on his Cultivation was indeed the wisest choice.’
’Once he has enough power to contend, he can come back and fight for her. If I were in his shoes, I’d probably do the same thing.’
The air fell silent. Seeing his expression, Fu Yuan knew this guy must have been hit hard by the news, so he couldn’t be bothered to engage with him further.
’Anyone would need some time to process all that after hearing it so suddenly.’
’To them, Yan Chen was like an earth-shattering nightmare. Back when he first appeared, it took me a long time to process it all and barely come to terms with the truth.’
He turned on his side, his gaze softening as he looked at the woman beside him.
She was already fast asleep, her breathing light and even. Her face was so clear and lovely. No matter how he looked at her, he found her captivating.
He gently took her soft hand and leaned in to kiss the beautiful pink lips before him.
A murderous glare immediately fell upon him, but Fu Yuan paid it no mind, continuing to trace her lips gently and meticulously with his own.
’Ever since we escaped that vortex of death, she’s been in my dreams every single night.’
’But this heartless woman had long since forgotten all about me. Every time I think about it, my gut twists with anger.’
"Enough! Let her go!!!"
Si Xie’s furious telepathic message echoed in his mind. Fu Yuan’s throat moved, and he licked her lips once before finally looking up at Si Xie with a mocking expression.
"You can’t even stand this? When Yan Chen gets back, aren’t you going to die of anger?"
Si Xie: "..."
"Don’t mention him! Even if he comes back, Nuannuan definitely won’t abandon me!"
"Fine, we won’t talk about him for now. But acting like this, are you trying to keep fighting with me? You won’t let me touch her, but does that mean you get to? Don’t you want to kiss her? Don’t you want to do intimate things with her? Fine. Let’s see how long you can hold out."
"I’ll match you for as long as you can hold out!"
With the transmission over, Fu Yuan pulled the woman beside him into his arms and closed his eyes to sleep.
’After all this time, this was the first time I’ve ever held her in my arms while sleeping in a bed. The ridiculous thing is, this bed isn’t even mine!’
Seeing him embrace Jiang Yunnuan, Si Xie’s jealousy flared up again. He instinctively kicked out at him, but Fu Yuan caught his foot with one hand.
"Are you trying to wake Nuannuan up?"
