Chapter 504: Something Happened?

When Xiao Yufan finally shifted his gaze, he noticed Lan Yue’s coquettish pout. It seemed that due to Huangpu Xian’er’s antics, Lan Yue had become slightly annoyed.

He nodded sheepishly and turned his wandering eyes elsewhere, avoiding her captivating gaze.

“The most enchanting campus goddess of Huaqing University must have taken a fancy to my husband. Could it be love at first sight? How romantic!”

Lan Yue rolled her eyes at Xiao Yufan, a faint smirk curling her lips. Her delicate expression radiated a charming allure, but Xiao Yufan had no mind to appreciate it.

When Xiao Yufan retracted his gaze, he noticed the coquettish expression on Lan Yue’s face. It seemed that after being disturbed by Huangpu Xian’er, Lan Yue was slightly annoyed.

With a reluctant nod, Xiao Yufan could only shift his wandering eyes to another direction, not daring to meet those beautiful eyes…

“The most mysterious goddess of Tsinghua University, could she really be interested in my husband? Love at first sight? How romantic!”

Pursing her lips, Lan Yue shot Xiao Yufan a fierce glare, her lips curving into a faint, teasing smile. Her coquettish demeanor was undeniably charming, but Xiao Yufan had no mind to appreciate it.

“I’m innocent! I didn’t do anything. Even if it’s love at first sight, it’s her business, not mine. Besides, with my beautiful Lan Yue by my side, how could I have eyes for anyone else?”

Xiao Yufan felt a pang of frustration. Huangpu Xian’er was indeed beautiful, but she was on a completely different path from him. He couldn’t understand why she had suddenly intervened in his life.

“Stop with the sweet talk. If she throws herself at you, who knows if you’ll resist? You big wolf! With Sister Yihan and the rest of us, you still can’t stop attracting other women!”

Her delicate, fair face flushed with a hint of red. Though she was somewhat displeased, her main concern was that her husband might become too flirtatious. She had already given so much, dividing her love among several women. If Xiao Yufan were to build a vast harem, she would never agree to it.

“Women, always women…”

Xiao Yufan smiled bitterly, thinking of every woman by his side. They were all so outstanding, yet they willingly stayed with him. All he could offer them was an incomplete love. What else could he do?

It seemed that having too much luck with women wasn’t always a good thing. The ancients often said that having many wives was a man’s blessing, but now he realized that the ancients could be deceiving too.

However, he deeply loved every woman by his side. Unless they chose to leave, he would never let any of them go. If they stayed, he would never abandon them.

“Hubby, I didn’t mean anything by it, I…”

Seeing Xiao Yufan suddenly fall silent, Lan Yue’s heart skipped a beat. Her expression changed slightly, fearing that Xiao Yufan might misunderstand her. When a woman’s heart is entirely devoted to a man, she becomes incredibly sensitive.

“Silly girl, what are you thinking? I’m just wondering how I can make it up to you.”

Feeling Lan Yue’s emotional fluctuation, a warm current flowed through Xiao Yufan’s heart. Her tenderness was like water, a charm that would only bloom for him in this lifetime.

“I’m already very happy. I think Sister Jiamiao and Sister Yihan feel the same way. Just being by your side is enough for me.”

Her long eyelashes fluttered nervously, and her delicate hands clenched slightly, revealing the turmoil in her heart. Seeing this, Xiao Yufan could only smile and shake his head. The debt he owed these women seemed to be growing larger and larger.

Involuntarily, a familiar figure appeared in Xiao Yufan’s mind. He murmured to himself, “Yingluo, how are you?”

The two of them fell into a simultaneous silence, a tranquility that was almost intoxicating. Lan Yue didn’t say anything more, simply enjoying this long-lost feeling. As long as Xiao Yufan was by her side, she felt at ease.

However, this quiet moment didn’t last long. From the nearest private room, a clamor erupted…

The noise grew louder and louder, and it didn’t sound like the joyful commotion of a gathering. This was the same room Huangpu Xian’er had entered earlier. Immediately, Xiao Yufan had a gut feeling—something was wrong!

Xiao Yufan dashed to the door of the private room, only to see two figures darting out one after the other. He didn’t even get a clear look at them, and his heart was filled with shock.

Not only had he not noticed these two entering the room earlier, but their strength alone was enough to make him wary. With his mid-level Qi Condensation cultivation, he couldn’t even gauge the depth of their internal energy.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yufan charged in. Although he had no fondness for Gong Hao, Situ Xuan, and the others, he couldn’t just stand by and watch a beautiful woman in trouble.

But when he entered, his brows furrowed deeply. Everyone except Huangpu Xian’er had collapsed to the ground, unconscious—even the formidable Situ Xuan was no exception…

Huangpu Xian’er’s face was grave, though whether she was genuinely frightened by what had just happened or merely putting on an act, Xiao Yufan couldn’t tell. Her strength was beyond his comprehension, so she shouldn’t be this shocked by anything.

“What happened to them…”

Regardless, Huangpu Xian’er was a woman, and they had crossed paths before. He couldn’t just ignore her.

“They were drugged. It’s nothing serious; they’ll wake up soon.”

Huangpu Xian’er’s eyes rested on Xiao Yufan, as if searching for something. Under her gaze, Xiao Yufan felt a moment of disarray, as if he were standing naked before her.

“Who were those two? Why are you unharmed?”

Xiao Yufan felt a headache coming on, suddenly regretting his decision to meddle. This woman was undeniably beautiful, but her background was a complete mystery. He had no interest in such a woman.

“One of them tried to attack me but failed. The other was someone protecting me in the shadows…”

Huangpu Xian’er answered without hesitation, though how much of what she said was true, Xiao Yufan couldn’t be sure.

Hearing this, Xiao Yufan was still surprised. Who exactly was this woman? Someone protecting her in the shadows possessed such strength. It seemed the so-called Huangpu family was a hidden clan unknown to outsiders.

“If they’ll wake up soon, then there’s nothing for me to do…”

Even when facing Qiao Chuxi, he hadn’t felt this way. But with Huangpu Xian’er, he felt an urge to escape. Xiao Yufan was somewhat annoyed. This woman was just too beautiful, but she wasn’t going to eat him.

Though he thought this way, Xiao Yufan still wanted to distance himself from her. Situ Xuan had been drugged, yet Huangpu Xian’er was unscathed. This alone showed that her strength surpassed Situ Xuan’s…

Xiao Yufan felt a pang of frustration. Although Huangpu Xian’er was beautiful, they were clearly on completely different paths. He couldn’t figure out why this woman had suddenly inserted herself into his life.

“Talkative mouth! If someone throws herself at you, who’s to say you won’t be tempted? You big pervert! Even with Yihan sister and the rest, you’re still chasing other women!”

A delicate blush spread across her fair face. Although she felt a little displeased, it was only because she didn’t want her husband to be too fickle. She had already given so much, and if Xiao Yufan truly intended to build a grand harem, she would never agree.

“Women again… another woman…”

Xiao Yufan smiled bitterly, thinking of every woman in his life. Each of them was exceptional, yet they willingly stayed by his side. All he could offer them was an incomplete love—what else could he do?

It seemed that having too much romantic luck wasn’t necessarily a good thing. The ancients often spoke of the blessings of having multiple concubines, but clearly, they had been misleading people.

Yet, he deeply loved every woman by his side. Unless they chose to leave, he would never let anyone go. If she does not depart, he shall never abandon.

“Husband, I didn’t mean anything else. I…”

Seeing Xiao Yufan suddenly fall silent, Lan Yue’s heart skipped a beat. Her expression subtly changed, fearing that he might misunderstand her. When a woman’s heart is tied to a man, she inevitably becomes sensitive.

“Foolish girl, what are you thinking? I was just wondering how I can make it up to my Yue’er.”

Feeling her emotional shift, a warm current stirred in Xiao Yufan’s heart. Such tender affection from this beauty—this charm would forever bloom only for him.

“I’m already very happy now. I think Jiayao sister and Yihan sister feel the same way. Just being by your side is enough for me.”

Her long lashes fluttered anxiously, and her delicate hands clenched slightly, betraying the emotional storm within. Witnessing this, Xiao Yufan could only shake his head with a smile. It seemed he owed these women more and more…

Unconsciously, a familiar figure surfaced in his mind. He murmured softly in his heart, “Yingluo, are you alright?”

The two fell into near-simultaneous silence, a tranquil moment almost intoxicating. Lan Yue said nothing more, simply savoring this long-missed feeling. As long as Xiao Yufan was by her side, she felt safe.

But this quiet didn’t last more than a few minutes before loud noises erupted from the nearest private room.

The sounds grew louder, clearly not the joyful chatter of a gathering. This room was precisely where Huangpu Xian’er had entered earlier. Instantly, Xiao Yufan had a premonition—something was wrong!

In a flash, Xiao Yufan darted to the door of the private room, only to see two figures darting out, one after the other. He didn’t even have time to see their faces before a chill ran down his spine.

When Xiao Yufan retracted his gaze, he noticed Lan Yue’s coquettish expression. It seemed that Huangpu Xian’er’s antics had slightly annoyed her.

With a reluctant nod, Xiao Yufan could only shift his wandering eyes to another direction, not daring to meet those beautiful eyes…

“The most mysterious goddess of Tsinghua University, could she really be interested in my husband? Love at first sight? How romantic!”

Pursing her lips, Lan Yue shot Xiao Yufan a fierce glare, her lips curving into a serene arc. Her coquettish demeanor exuded a charming allure, but Xiao Yufan had no mind to appreciate it.

“Wronged! I didn’t do anything. Even if it’s love at first sight, it’s her business, not mine. Besides, with our Yue’er being so beautiful, how could I have any thoughts about her?”

Xiao Yufan felt a pang of frustration. Although Huangpu Xian’er was beautiful, she was not on the same path as him. He just couldn’t understand why she had suddenly intervened.

“Stop with the sweet talk. If she throws herself at you, who knows if you’ll resist? You big pervert! With Yi Han and the others, we’re already not enough for you, and you still keep attracting other women!”

Her delicate, fair face flushed with a captivating blush. Even though she felt a bit discontent, she only wanted her husband not to be too fickle. She had already given so much by sharing her love, and if Xiao Yufan were to build a grand harem, she would definitely not agree.

“Women, always women…”

Xiao Yufan smiled bitterly, thinking of every woman by his side. They were all so outstanding, yet they willingly stayed with him. All he could offer them was an incomplete love—what else could he do?

It seems that having too much luck with women isn’t always good. The ancients often said that having many wives was a man’s blessing, but they too could be deceiving…

However, he deeply loved every woman by his side. Unless they chose to let go, he would never let any of them leave. If they did not leave, he would not abandon them.

“Husband, I didn’t mean anything, I…”

Seeing Xiao Yufan suddenly fall silent, Lan Yue’s heart skipped a beat, her expression slightly changing. She was afraid Xiao Yufan would misunderstand her. When a woman’s heart is tied to a man, she becomes extremely sensitive.

“Silly girl, what are you thinking? I was just wondering how to make it up to our Yue’er!”

Feeling Lan Yue’s emotional fluctuation, a warm current flowed through Xiao Yufan’s heart. Her tender affection was a charm that would only bloom for him in this lifetime.

“Right now, I’m very happy. I think Sister Jia Yao and Sister Yi Han feel the same way. Being able to stay by your side is enough for me.”

Her long eyelashes fluttered uneasily, her delicate hands clenched slightly, revealing the turmoil in her heart. Seeing this, Xiao Yufan could only smile and shake his head. It seemed he owed these women more and more…

Involuntarily, a familiar figure appeared in Xiao Yufan’s mind. He murmured in his heart, “Ying Luo, are you doing well?”

The two of them fell silent almost simultaneously, the tranquility somewhat intoxicating. Lan Yue didn’t say anything more, simply enjoying this long-lost feeling. As long as Xiao Yufan was by her side, she felt at ease.

However, this quiet moment didn’t last long. From the nearest private room, a clamor began to rise…

The noise grew louder, and it didn’t sound like the joyful commotion of a gathering. This was the room Huangpu Xian’er had entered earlier. Instantly, Xiao Yufan had a gut feeling—something was wrong!

Xiao Yufan dashed to the door of the private room, only to see two figures darting out one after the other. He didn’t even get a clear look at them, which left him somewhat startled.

Not only had he not noticed these two entering the room earlier, but their strength alone was enough to shock him. With his mid-level Qi Condensation cultivation, he couldn’t even gauge their internal energy.

Without further thought, Xiao Yufan charged in. Although he had no fondness for Gong Hao, Situ Xuan, and the others, he couldn’t just stand by and watch a beauty in distress.

But as he entered, his brows furrowed sharply. Apart from Huangpu Xian’er, everyone else had collapsed unconscious, including the formidable Situ Xuan…

Huangpu Xian’er’s face was grave, though whether she was genuinely frightened by what had just happened or merely pretending, Xiao Yufan couldn’t tell. Her strength was beyond his comprehension, so even if something had occurred, she shouldn’t be this shocked.

“What happened to them…”

Regardless, Huangpu Xian’er was a woman, and they had at least crossed paths once. He couldn’t just ignore her.

“They were just drugged. They should be fine after a while.”

Huangpu Xian’er’s eyes calmly observed Xiao Yufan, as if searching for something. Under her gaze, Xiao Yufan felt a bit disoriented, as if he were standing naked before her.

“Who were those two? Why are you unharmed?”

Xiao Yufan felt a headache coming on, suddenly regretting his decision to meddle. This woman, though stunningly beautiful, was an enigma. He had no interest in such a mysterious beauty.

“One of them tried to attack me but failed. The other was someone secretly protecting me…”

Huangpu Xian’er answered without hesitation, though how much of it was true, Xiao Yufan couldn’t tell.

Hearing this, Xiao Yufan was still surprised. Who exactly was this woman? Someone with such strength protecting her in the shadows—it seemed the Huangpu family was indeed a hidden clan unknown to outsiders.

“If they’ll wake up soon, then there’s nothing more for me to do…”

Even when facing Qiao Chuxi, he hadn’t felt this way. Confronting Huangpu Xian’er, he felt an urge to escape, which annoyed him. She was just exceptionally beautiful—it wasn’t like she would devour him.

Though he thought this way, Xiao Yufan still wanted to distance himself from her. Situ Xuan had been drugged, yet Huangpu Xian’er remained unscathed, indicating her strength surpassed even Situ Xuan’s…

Without hesitation, Xiao Yufan rushed inside. Although he had no particular fondness for Gong Hao, Situ Xuan, and the others, he couldn’t just ignore a damsel in distress.

Yet upon entering, his brows furrowed tightly. Except for Huangpu Xian’er, everyone else was unconscious on the floor—including the formidable Situ Xuan.

Huangpu Xian’er’s face bore a serious expression. Whether it was genuine shock from what had happened or merely an act, it was hard to tell. Her strength was unfathomable even to Xiao Yufan. If something had truly occurred, surely she wouldn’t be so surprised?

“What happened to them?”

Regardless, Huangpu Xian’er was still a woman, and someone he had met briefly. He naturally couldn’t just turn a blind eye.

“They were just drugged and knocked out. They should be fine after a while.”

Huangpu Xian’er’s eyes fixed steadily on Xiao Yufan, as if searching for something. Under that gaze, Xiao Yufan felt strangely unsettled, as if he were completely exposed before her.

“Who were those two people? And why weren’t you affected?”

Xiao Yufan felt a headache coming on. For a moment, he regretted getting involved. Although this woman was undeniably beautiful, he knew next to nothing about her background. He had no interest in such enigmatic beauties.

“One of them tried to attack me, but failed. The other was someone secretly protecting me…”

Without hesitation, Huangpu Xian’er answered. As for how much of it was true, Xiao Yufan couldn’t say.

Still, this response surprised him. Just who was this woman? If even her protector possessed such strength, then this Huangpu family must be a hidden clan unknown to the outside world.

“If they’ll wake up soon, there’s nothing more I need to do, right?”

Even when facing Qiao Chuxi, he hadn’t felt this way. Facing Huangpu Xian’er, however, he actually felt a desire to escape. Xiao Yufan felt a little annoyed—this woman was just a bit too beautiful, but she wouldn’t actually eat him.

Still, despite thinking that, he wanted to keep his distance. Situ Xuan had been knocked out, yet Huangpu Xian’er remained unharmed. Clearly, her strength surpassed his by a margin…
