CHAPTER 309: CHAPTER 299: HE CALLED ME... YUN RAN?

Nangong Mo reached out to take away the folding fan covering her face.

"Get up, and eat the drumstick."

Yun Ran snorted and gave him a cold shoulder.

Behind her, a deep, pleasant male voice drifted in, but the words were not so pleasing.

"Two choices."

"Eat the drumstick."

"Or take the medicine first and then eat the drumstick."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ran scrambled up and glared at him angrily, "Nangong Mo, you’re too much!"

The man lightly raised an eyebrow, indifferent.

Yun Ran looked at him and suddenly sighed in her heart.

[Oh well, why should a heroine fuss with a dog? The drumstick is my love, and it’s so tasty! Why be difficult with myself?]

Thinking this way, Yun Ran swiftly finished off a drumstick.

While gnawing the drumstick, her mind was filled with:

[Nangong Mo, you bastard! Bite you, you dog man! Bite you to death!]

When the last bite went down, Yun Ran felt slightly unsatisfied.

Nangong Mo looked at her, she seemed just like a greedy cat. After days of careful care, her palm-sized small face had finally plumped up a bit, her skin appearing rosy white, tempting anyone to pinch it.

Nangong Mo held a fine cloth handkerchief, leaned over slightly, and naturally wiped Yun Ran’s mouth.

Yun Ran, who had been imagining him flat and round with her thoughts, held her breath and guiltily gave him a sharp glance, reaching out to push his hand away, "I can wipe myself. Don’t get so close to me, you’ll freeze someone to death!"

Nangong Mo sat upright as if nothing happened, pulling away slightly, "Have you eaten enough? Do you want to eat something else?"

[Want to eat your dog head, will you give it?]

"No, I’m already..."

"Yun Ran."

Yet before Yun Ran could finish her sentence, she suddenly heard her name, as if struck by lightning, her mind went blank, staring at Nangong Mo, turning into stone in the wind!

[Did he... just call Yun Ran?!]

[Surely I didn’t mishear?]

[He called... me? Or did he happen to just recall someone with the same name as me?]

"Yun Ran, is that your courtesy name?"

"Or your childhood name?"

While Yun Ran was lost in thought, Nangong Mo’s voice sounded again.

Yun Ran tilted her head, looking at him with a bewildered and dazed expression, unsure what to feel.

[Courtesy name? Childhood name? What the heck?]

[Yun Ran is clearly my full name, okay?!]

It took Yun Ran quite a while to finally say something, "Why do you say that?"

Nangong Mo calmly raised an eyebrow in an elegant manner, "You talked in your sleep last night, said your name was Yun Ran."

"I was curious, is Yun Ran your courtesy name or childhood name?"

Yun Ran: "???"

[Did I talk in my sleep?! Even told my name? Can’t be, right?]

[What else did I say? Didn’t mention being struck by lightning, did I?!]

[Wouldn’t that mean he knows I’m a ghost?!]

[Could he already be secretly searching for a priest?]

[What if his skills are high and I can’t defeat him?]

"Seeing your expression, was it true?"

"Then I’ll call you Yun Ran from now on."

Nangong Mo spoke at the right moment, interrupting the girl’s chaotic thoughts.

Yun Ran crossed her arms over her chest, trying to calm her ’thumping’ little heart, feigned composure, solemnly, nonsensically saying:

"Better not. You said Yun Ran is my childhood name, my mother is the only one who calls me that, you aren’t my mother, it’d be weird!"

Nangong Mo: "..."

Vaguely, the man’s sexy thin lips twitched lightly.

His gaze swept coolly at Yun Ran, "I’m your husband, not allowed to call?"

"Not allowed! Only my mother can!"

"..."

Yun Ran thought:

[What a joke! If you call me that, I’d be on edge every day, right?]

[It’s like a ghost suddenly dragged out into the sunlight, who wouldn’t feel anxious?]
