“Second Brother, do you still remember the information we obtained when we recently launched an attack on the hidden Lei family?”
Li Xuan cast a somewhat greedy glance at Yu Yiren’s alluring figure, her seductive curves stirring a desire to dominate and possess her. It was true that they were sworn brothers, but he had a particular interest in this “third sister.” However, he wouldn’t reveal his inner thoughts so easily. After a moment’s hesitation, he spoke with a tone of amusement.
“You mean the hidden Huangpu family possibly possessing a lost teleportation array?”
Frowning slightly, Xiao Ding clearly recalled the information they had obtained from the hidden Lei family. At that time, they had spearheaded the operation, nearly wiping out the entire hidden Lei family, only to receive disappointing news—the Lei family didn’t have what they were seeking. However, they had uncovered another important clue: the hidden Huangpu family might possess a lost teleportation array.
“No one can be sure, but how will we ever know unless we try? Better to kill a thousand than let one escape. We’ve already incurred the wrath of many Huaxia temples, so it doesn’t matter if they hate us a little more!”
If anyone among the four was the most ruthless, not even their eldest brother could rival this fourth brother. Over time, the number of powerful experts who had fallen at Li Xuan’s hands had become too many to count.
“That may be true, but haven’t you noticed that we seem to be getting manipulated? Whether the information is true or false, whoever deliberately leaked it probably wanted to use us to eliminate their enemies. It takes real guts to use us four brothers like that!”
A cold gleam flickered in Xiao Ding’s eyes. They were indeed seeking a lost teleportation array to return to their own world, but that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated or act as someone else’s henchmen. Previously, regarding the rumor that the hidden Lei family possessed a teleportation array, they had clearly been deceived.
At these words, Yu Yiren and Li Xuan both fell silent. They were proud individuals who naturally disliked the idea of being used.
“Let’s put this matter aside for now. However, if the hidden Huangpu family truly does possess a teleportation array, we must obtain it at all costs. Only then can we escape this wretched place!”
Finally, Xiao Ding spoke decisively. Regardless of whether someone was trying to manipulate them, their current diminished strength made it unwise to provoke other hidden families. If they truly angered the guardians of the temples, they would only end up fleeing in disgrace.
“Second Brother, do you remember the information we obtained when we targeted the Hidden Lei Family recently…”
Li Xuan couldn’t help but cast a greedy glance at Yu Yiren’s alluring figure, her curvaceous body stirring a desire within him to dominate her. Though they were sworn siblings, he harbored a deep interest in his third sister, yet he dared not reveal his true feelings. After a moment of hesitation, his voice took on a playful tone.
“Are you referring to the possibility of a lost teleportation array within the Hidden Huangpu Family?”
Frowning, Xiao Ding also recalled the intel they had gathered from the Hidden Lei Family. On that day, they had nearly wiped out the entire Hidden Lei Family, only to discover that they didn’t possess what they were seeking. However, they had stumbled upon another crucial lead—the Hidden Huangpu Family might harbor a lost teleportation array…
“No one knows for sure, but how can we find out without testing the waters? Better to kill ten thousand by mistake than let one escape. We’ve already incurred the wrath of many Chinese temples, so a little more hatred won’t make a difference.”
If there was anyone among the four who was the most ruthless, it was undoubtedly the fourth brother, Li Xuan. Over the years, the number of superpowered individuals who had fallen by his hand was beyond count.
“True, but haven’t you noticed that we seem to be led by the nose? Whether that information is true or false, the person who deliberately leaked it probably wants to use us as pawns. To think they’d dare to manipulate us four brothers—what audacity!”
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes. While it was true that they sought the lost teleportation array to return to their world, that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated into becoming someone else’s enforcers. The incident with the Hidden Lei Family and the supposed teleportation array seemed to have been a ruse.
Hearing this, both Yu Yiren and Li Xuan fell silent. They were proud individuals and naturally loathed being used…
“Let’s set this matter aside for now. But if the Hidden Huangpu Family truly possesses a teleportation array, we must secure it at all costs. Only then can we escape this wretched place.”
Xiao Ding had the final say. Regardless of whether someone was trying to use them, their current state of diminished strength made it unwise to target other hidden families. If they provoked the guardians of the temples, they would have no choice but to flee in disgrace.
“By the way, I heard that the Tian Alliance and the Qianhuang Temple are at odds. It seems the latter is no match for the Tian Alliance. That formidable old man might be able to extract some information about us from the Qianhuang Temple.”
After a while, Li Xuan recalled a distress signal he had received a few days ago, his eyes flickering with intrigue. The existence of the Tian Alliance was no secret to the three of them, not because of its overall strength, but because it harbored a figure they deeply feared.
“What if they do get information? I doubt the Tian Alliance can cause any real upheaval. That man may be powerful, but in a one-on-one fight, I could best him, and our leader is even stronger than me.”
Xiao Ding’s expression shifted slightly at the mention of the Tian Alliance. They hadn’t anticipated that the Tian Alliance, after lying low for so long, had grown so formidable.
Having once dealt a heavy blow to the Hidden Situ Family, the Tian Alliance was inevitably their enemy. However, they weren’t concerned, as aside from that old man, the Tian Alliance posed no real threat to them.
“Then let’s wait for the Ancient Martial Arts Conference. By then, everyone’s attention will be diverted.”
With no immediate threats to worry about, they naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to act first. As for the fate of the Qianhuang Temple, it was none of their concern. Even if the Tian Alliance obtained information about them and their location, they likely wouldn’t dare to approach.
The three exchanged glances, each wearing a faint smile. Then, their figures transformed into three streaks of light, vanishing into the dense mist as if they had never been there…
In the Purple Maple Apartment, Xiao Yufan looked at the many exceptional women around him, a contented smile on his face. Over the past two days, Hu Yingluo had seamlessly integrated into their large family, while the Hu Family and the Hidden Hong Family had yet to make an appearance.
“Little pervert, is Yingluo not attractive enough for you? You still haven’t made a move on her.”
Nie Shiyun sat quietly beside Xiao Yufan, her exquisite features exuding a mature charm. Xiao Yufan silently congratulated himself for plucking this blossoming flower; had it fallen into someone else’s hands, it would have been a waste.
“Though Yingluo and I are aware of each other’s feelings, we haven’t addressed them directly. Besides, if we were to take that step, it would be a lifelong commitment—a responsibility too heavy to bear.”
Taking her cold hand in his, Xiao Yufan’s eyes curved into a handsome, relaxed arc. He longed to possess her, but he also knew that if they crossed that line, it would mean a lifetime of protection and duty. Thus, he couldn’t rush.
“It seems the little pervert has principles after all!” Nie Shiyun chuckled softly, tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear, which only deepened Xiao Yufan’s infatuation. His gaze lingered, especially as it trailed down her loose collar, revealing a glimpse of her beauty.
“Little pervert, if you keep taking advantage of me so blatantly, I’ll have the sisters teach you a lesson!”
Even though she had been intimate with Xiao Yufan, Nie Shiyun still felt flustered under his unabashed gaze. Of course, her threat only served to inflate his ego…
“Oh? How exactly will Shiyun have them teach me a lesson? In bed, perhaps?”
Xiao Yufan leaned in closer, savoring the sight of Nie Shiyun’s blushing cheeks. This feeling was rather delightful. Hearing his words, Nie Shiyun shot him a reproachful glare.
Just then, Xiao Yufan heard a noise from outside. The smile on his face faded, replaced by a strange expression. He glanced back at Yingluo, who also wore a look of displeasure.
It seemed that the guy from the Hong Family was truly persistent. Since he had come all this way, Xiao Yufan would have to play the gracious host. To act too stingy would only tarnish his reputation. After all, in the north, he feared no one…
“Second Brother, do you remember the news we got when we took action against the hidden Lei family recently…”
Li Xuan couldn’t help but cast a greedy glance at Yu Yiren’s tight and alluring figure. Her delicate body stirred an impulse in him to pin her down and play with her. Though they were sworn siblings, he had a keen interest in this third sister. However, he dared not reveal his true feelings. After a moment of hesitation, he spoke with a playful tone.
“Are you talking about the possibility of a lost teleportation array in the hidden Huangpu family?”
Frowning, Xiao Ding also recalled the information they had obtained from the hidden Lei family. On that day, they had nearly wiped out the entire hidden Lei family, only to receive bad news—the Lei family didn’t have what they were looking for. However, they did uncover another crucial lead: the hidden Huangpu family might possess a lost teleportation array…
“No one knows for sure, but how can we find out without testing the waters? It’s better to kill ten thousand by mistake than to let one slip away. We’ve already incurred the wrath of many Chinese temples, so a little more hatred won’t make a difference.”
Among the four of them, if anyone was the most ruthless, it was this fourth brother, Li Xuan. Over the years, the number of superpowered individuals who had fallen by his hand was beyond count, even for himself.
“True, but haven’t you noticed that we seem to be led by the nose? Whether that news is true or not, the person who deliberately leaked it probably wants to use us as a tool for their own agenda. To think they’d dare to use the hands of us four brothers—what audacity!”
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes. While it was true that they were searching for the lost teleportation array to return to their own world, that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated into becoming someone else’s pawns. The previous incident involving the hidden Lei family and the teleportation array seemed to have been a setup.
Hearing this, both Yu Yiren and Li Xuan fell silent. They were proud individuals and naturally didn’t want to be used…
“Let’s put this matter aside for now. But if the hidden Huangpu family truly possesses a teleportation array, we must obtain it at all costs. Only then can we escape this wretched place.”
Finally, Xiao Ding spoke up. Regardless of whether someone was trying to use them, their current state of diminished strength made it unwise to take action against other hidden families. If they were to provoke the guardians of the temples, they would only end up fleeing in disgrace.
“By the way, I heard that the Tian Alliance and the Qianhuang Palace are at odds. Those weaklings from the Qianhuang Palace are no match for the Tian Alliance. That formidable old man from the Tian Alliance might be able to extract some information about us from the Qianhuang Palace.”
After a while, Li Xuan recalled a distress signal he had received a few days ago, and a ripple of emotion crossed his eyes. The existence of the Tian Alliance was no stranger to the three of them, not because the alliance itself was particularly powerful, but because it housed a figure they deeply feared.
“What does it matter if they get the information? I don’t believe the Tian Alliance can cause any significant trouble. That man may be strong, but in a one-on-one fight, I could still best him. And our eldest brother is far stronger than I am.”
When Xiao Ding mentioned the Tian Alliance, a strange expression crossed his face. They hadn’t expected that the Tian Alliance, which had been lying low for so long, had grown to such a formidable level.
Since they had once severely crippled the hidden Situ family, the Tian Alliance could only be their enemy. However, they weren’t concerned, as apart from that old man, the Tian Alliance posed no real threat to them.
“Then let’s wait for the Ancient Martial Arts Conference. By then, everyone’s attention will be diverted elsewhere.”
Since there was no immediate threat, they naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to act first. As for the fate of the Qianhuang Palace, it had nothing to do with them. Even if the Tian Alliance managed to obtain information about them and their location, they probably wouldn’t dare to come after them.
The three of them exchanged glances, each wearing a faint smile. Then, their figures transformed into three beams of light, disappearing into the thick mist, as if no one had ever been there…
In the Purple Maple Apartment, Xiao Yufan looked at the many exceptional women around him, a contented smile on his face. Over the past two days, Hu Yingluo had fully integrated into this large family, while members of the Hu family and the hidden Hong family had yet to appear.
“Little pervert, is Yingluo not attractive enough for you? You haven’t made a move on her yet!”
Nie Shiyun sat quietly beside Xiao Yufan, her exquisite and mature beauty exuding a certain charm. Xiao Yufan silently congratulated himself for plucking this blossoming flower before it could fall into someone else’s hands—that would have been a true waste.
“Yingluo and I both know each other’s feelings, but we haven’t made them explicit. If we were to take that step, it would be a lifelong commitment, and that responsibility is too heavy.”
Xiao Yufan reached out and took her cold hand, his eyes curving into a handsome and relaxed arc. He deeply desired that woman, but he also understood that if they were to take that step, it would mean a lifetime of protection and responsibility. So, he couldn’t rush it.
“It seems the little pervert still has some principles!” Nie Shiyun smiled softly, brushing her disheveled hair behind her ear, causing Xiao Yufan’s gaze to linger, especially as it followed the loose collar of her shirt, revealing a glimpse of her beauty.
“Little pervert, if you keep taking advantage of me so blatantly, I’ll have the other sisters teach you a lesson!”
Even though she had already been intimate with Xiao Yufan, Nie Shiyun still found it hard to bear his unabashed gaze. Of course, her threat only made him more smug…
“Oh, Shiyun, how exactly are you going to have them teach me a lesson? In bed, perhaps?”
Xiao Yufan leaned closer, seeing the blush on Nie Shiyun’s cheeks. This feeling was quite pleasant, he thought. Hearing his words, Nie Shiyun shot him a coquettish glare.
At that moment, Xiao Yufan suddenly heard a voice from outside. The smile on his face immediately turned peculiar. He glanced back at Yingluo, noticing a hint of resentment on her face.
It seemed that the guy from the Hong family was truly persistent. But since he had come all the way here, Xiao Yufan would naturally play the role of a good host. Being too petty would only tarnish his reputation. After all, in the north, he had never feared anyone…
“Second brother, do you remember the information we obtained when we took action against the hidden Lei family recently…”
Li Xuan cast a greedy glance at Yu Yiren’s tight and delicate figure, her alluring form stirring an impulse within him to press her down and play with her. Though they were sworn siblings, he harbored a keen interest in this third sister, yet he dared not reveal his true feelings. After a moment of hesitation, he spoke with a playful tone.
“You mean the hidden Huangpu family might possess a lost teleportation array?”

On that day, as they led the charge, the entire hidden Lei family was nearly wiped out, but they received some bad news—the hidden Lei family didn’t have what they were looking for. However, they did uncover another crucial lead.
The hidden Huangpu family might indeed possess a lost teleportation array…
“No one knows for sure, but how can we find out without testing the waters? Better to kill ten thousand by mistake than let one slip away. We’ve already incurred the displeasure of many Hua Xia temples, so we might as well add a bit more to their hatred.”
Among the four of them, if anyone could be called the most ruthless, even their leader paled in comparison to this fourth brother. Over the years, the number of superpowered individuals who had fallen to Li Xuan’s hands was beyond count.
“True, but haven’t you noticed that it feels like we’re being led by the nose? Whether that information is true or not, the person who deliberately leaked it probably wants to use us as a weapon. To think they’d dare to use the hands of us four brothers—quite bold indeed!”
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes. While it was true that they sought the lost teleportation array to return to their own world, that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated into becoming someone else’s pawns. The previous incident regarding the hidden Lei family’s teleportation array seemed to have been a ruse.
Hearing this, both Yu Yiren and Li Xuan fell silent. They were proud individuals and naturally didn’t want to be used…
“Let’s put this matter aside for now. But if the hidden Huangpu family truly possesses a teleportation array, we must seize it at all costs. Only then can we escape this wretched place.”
Finally, Xiao Ding spoke up. Regardless of whether someone was trying to use them, their current loss of strength made it unwise to take action against other hidden families. If they truly angered the guardians of the temples, they would only be left fleeing in disarray.
“By the way, I heard that the Tian Alliance and the Qianhuang Temple are in a standoff. Those weaklings from the Tian Alliance seem to be no match for them. Perhaps that formidable old man might be able to extract some information about us from the Qianhuang Temple.”

“Little wolf, is Yingluo not attractive enough for you? You still haven’t made a move on her.”
Nie Shiyun sat quietly beside Xiao Yufan, her exquisite and perfect features exuding a mature charm. Xiao Yufan inwardly sighed in relief that he had plucked this blooming flower; otherwise, it would have been a waste if it had fallen into someone else’s hands.
“Though Yingluo and I both know each other’s feelings, we haven’t spoken them aloud. Moreover, if we truly take that step, it would be a lifelong commitment—a responsibility too heavy to bear.”
He reached out and grasped her cold, jade-like hand, his eyes curving into a handsome and leisurely arc. He deeply desired to possess that woman, but he also understood that if they took that step, it would mean a lifetime of protection and responsibility. Thus, he couldn’t rush.
“It seems the little wolf has principles after all!” Nie Shiyun smiled softly, brushing her disheveled hair behind her ear, causing Xiao Yufan’s gaze to linger, especially as it followed the loose collar of her shirt, revealing a glimpse of spring.
“Little wolf, if you keep taking advantage of me so blatantly, I’ll have the other sisters teach you a lesson later!”
Even though she had been intimate with Xiao Yufan, Nie Shiyun still found it hard to withstand his blatant gaze. Of course, her threat only served to make him more smug…
“Oh? How will Shiyun have them teach me a lesson? Is it on the bed?”
Xiao Yufan leaned closer, seeing the blush on Nie Shiyun’s cheeks, and found the sensation quite pleasant. Hearing his words, Nie Shiyun shot him a coquettish glare.
At that moment, Xiao Yufan suddenly heard a voice from outside. The smile on his face instantly turned peculiar. He glanced back at Yingluo, noticing a trace of indignation on her face.
It seemed that guy from the Hong family was truly persistent. But since he had come all the way here, Xiao Yufan naturally had to play the role of a good host. If he acted too stingy, it would only tarnish his reputation. After all, in the north, he had never feared anyone…

“Although Yingluo and I both know each other’s feelings, we haven’t spoken them aloud. If we were to take that step, it would be a lifelong commitment, and that’s a heavy responsibility.”
Xiao Yufan reached out and took her cold, delicate hand, his eyes curving into a handsome and relaxed arc. He deeply desired her, but he also knew that if they took that step, it would mean a lifetime of protection and responsibility. So, there was no need to rush.

A cold glint flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes. While they were indeed searching for the lost teleportation array to return to their world, that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated into becoming someone else’s enforcers. The previous incident with the hidden Lei family’s supposed teleportation array had already made them feel deceived.

Xiao Ding also showed a hint of unease upon hearing about the Tian Alliance. They hadn’t expected the alliance, which had remained dormant for so long, to have grown so formidable.
Having once severely crippled the hidden Situ family, the Tian Alliance could only be their enemy. However, they weren’t concerned, as apart from that old man, the Tian Alliance lacked any strength worthy of their attention.
“Then let’s wait for the Ancient Martial Arts Conference. By then, everyone’s attention will surely be diverted.”
Since there was no immediate threat, they naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to act first. As for the fate of the Qianhuang Temple, it had nothing to do with them. Even if the Tian Alliance obtained information about their whereabouts, they likely wouldn’t dare to approach.
The three exchanged glances, each wearing a faint smile. Then, their figures transformed into three streaks of light, vanishing into the dense mist as if they had never been there…
In the Purple Maple Apartment, Xiao Yufan looked at the many exceptional women around him, a contented smile on his face. Over the past two days, Hu Yingluo had seamlessly integrated into the family, while the Hu family and the hidden Hong family had yet to make an appearance.

Nie Shiyun sat quietly beside Xiao Yufan, her exquisite and mature beauty exuding a captivating charm. Xiao Yufan silently congratulated himself for plucking this blossoming flower before it could fall into someone else’s hands—what a waste that would have been.

“Little wolf, if you keep taking advantage of me so blatantly, I’ll have the sisters teach you a lesson!”
Even though she had been intimate with Xiao Yufan, Nie Shiyun still found his unabashed gaze hard to bear. Of course, her threat only served to make him more smug…

At that moment, Xiao Yufan suddenly heard a voice from outside. The smile on his face faded, replaced by a strange expression. He glanced back at Yingluo, noticing a hint of resentment on her face.
It seemed that the Hong family’s persistent troublemaker had found his way here. Since he had come, Xiao Yufan would naturally play the gracious host. To act too petty would only tarnish his reputation. After all, in the north, he feared no one…
“Then let’s wait for the Ancient Martial Arts Tournament. By then, everyone’s attention will surely be diverted!”
“Second Brother, do you remember the news we got when we took action against the hidden Lei family recently…”
Li Xuan cast a greedy glance at Yu Yiren’s tight and delicate figure, her curvaceous body stirring an impulse in him to pin her down and play with her. Though they were sworn siblings, he harbored a keen interest in this third sister, yet he dared not reveal his thoughts. After a moment of hesitation, his voice took on a playful tone.
“You mean the hidden Huangpu family might possess a lost teleportation array?”
Frowning, Xiao Ding clearly recalled the information they had obtained from the hidden Lei family. That day, as they led the charge, the entire hidden Lei family was nearly wiped out, but they received bad news—the hidden Lei family didn’t have what they were looking for. However, they did uncover another crucial lead: the hidden Huangpu family might indeed possess a lost teleportation array…
“No one knows for sure, but how can we find out without testing the waters? Better to kill ten thousand by mistake than let one escape. We’ve already incurred the wrath of many Chinese temples, so we’re not afraid of adding a bit more hatred.”
Among the four of them, if anyone was the most ruthless, it was this fourth brother, Li Xuan. Over the years, the number of superpowered individuals who had fallen by his hand was beyond count, even for himself.
“That may be true, but haven’t you noticed that we’re being led by the nose? Whether that news is true or not, the person who deliberately leaked it probably wants to use us as a weapon. Using the hands of us four brothers—what audacity!”
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes. While it was true that they sought the lost teleportation array to return to their world, that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated into becoming someone else’s pawns. The earlier incident with the hidden Lei family and the supposed teleportation array seemed to have been a setup.
Hearing this, both Yu Yiren and Li Xuan fell silent. They were proud individuals and naturally didn’t want to be used…
“Let’s put this matter aside for now. But if the hidden Huangpu family truly possesses a teleportation array, we must seize it at all costs. Only then can we escape this wretched place.”
Xiao Ding had the final say. Whether someone was trying to use them or not, given their current state of diminished strength, it wasn’t wise to take action against other hidden families. If they provoked the guardians of the temples, they’d only end up fleeing in disgrace.
“By the way, I heard that the Tian Alliance and the Qianhuang Temple are at odds. Those weaklings are no match for the Tian Alliance. That formidable old man might be able to extract some information about us from the Qianhuang Temple’s people.”
After a while, Li Xuan recalled a distress signal he had received a few days ago, his eyes flickering with interest. The existence of the Tian Alliance was no stranger to the three of them, not because of the alliance’s overall strength, but because it included one individual they deeply feared.
“What does it matter if they get the information? I don’t believe the Tian Alliance can stir up any real trouble. That man may be strong, but in a one-on-one fight, I could best him. And the boss is even stronger than I am.”
Xiao Ding’s expression shifted slightly at the mention of the Tian Alliance. They hadn’t expected that the Tian Alliance, after lying low for so long, had grown so powerful.
Since they had once severely wounded the hidden Situ family, the Tian Alliance could only be their enemy. But they didn’t mind, as apart from that old man, the Tian Alliance posed no real threat to them.
“Then let’s wait for the Ancient Martial Arts Conference. By then, everyone’s attention will be diverted.”
Since there was no immediate threat, they weren’t foolish enough to act first. As for the fate of the Qianhuang Temple, it had nothing to do with them. Even if the Tian Alliance got their information and knew their location, they probably wouldn’t dare to come.
The three exchanged glances, each wearing a faint smile. Then, their figures transformed into three streaks of light, vanishing into the thick mist, as if no one had ever been there…
In the Purple Maple Apartment, Xiao Yufan looked at the many outstanding women around him, a contented smile on his face. Over the past two days, Hu Yingluo had fully integrated into this large family, while the Hu family and the hidden Hong family had yet to make an appearance.
“Little pervert, is Yingluo not attractive enough? You haven’t made a move on her yet!”
Nie Shiyun sat quietly beside Xiao Yufan, her exquisite and mature beauty exuding a captivating aura. Xiao Yufan silently congratulated himself for plucking this blooming flower before someone else could waste it.
“Though Yingluo and I both know each other’s feelings, we haven’t spoken them aloud. And if we truly take that step, it would be a lifelong commitment—a responsibility too heavy to bear lightly.”
Taking her cold hand in his, Xiao Yufan’s eyes curved into a charming and relaxed arc. He longed to possess her, but he also knew that if they took that step, it would mean a lifetime of protection and responsibility. So, he couldn’t rush.
“It seems the little pervert still has some principles!” Nie Shiyun smiled softly, brushing her disheveled hair behind her ear, causing Xiao Yufan’s gaze to linger, especially as it drifted down her loose collar, revealing a glimpse of spring.
“Little pervert, if you keep taking advantage of me so blatantly, I’ll have the other sisters teach you a lesson!”
Even though she had been intimate with Xiao Yufan, Nie Shiyun still couldn’t handle his unabashed gaze. Of course, her threat only made him more smug…
“Oh? How will Shiyun have them teach me a lesson? In bed, perhaps?”
Xiao Yufan leaned closer, seeing the blush on Nie Shiyun’s cheeks, and found the feeling quite pleasant. Hearing his words, Nie Shiyun shot him a coquettish glare.
Just then, Xiao Yufan suddenly heard a voice from outside. The smile on his face turned peculiar, and he glanced back at Yingluo, noticing a hint of resentment on her face.
It seemed that guy from the Hong family was truly persistent. But since he had come all the way here, Xiao Yufan would have to play the gracious host. Being too petty would only tarnish his reputation. After all, in the north, he feared no one…
The three exchanged glances, a faint smile appearing on each of their faces. Then, their figures transformed into three streaks of light, vanishing into the thick mist, as if no one had ever been there…
Inside the Purple Maple Apartment, Xiao Yufan looked at the many outstanding women around him with a very contented smile. In just two days, Hu Yingluo had completely integrated into this big family, while the Hu family and the hidden Hong family had yet to appear.
“Little Casanova, don’t you find Yingluo’s charm irresistible? You still haven’t claimed her yet!”
Nie Shiyun sat quietly beside Xiao Yufan, her exquisitely beautiful face carrying a mature aura. Xiao Yufan secretly sighed, grateful that he had plucked this blooming flower before someone else could, or else it would be a terrible waste.
“Although Yingluo and I understand each other’s feelings, we haven’t openly acknowledged them. Moreover, if we truly took that step, it would mean a lifelong commitment, and that promise carries a heavy weight.”
He gently took her cold hand, his eyes curving into a charming and relaxed arc. He truly desired this woman, but he also understood that if they truly took that step, it would mean a lifetime of guardianship and responsibility. Therefore, he couldn’t rush things.
“It seems you still have some principles, little Casanova!” Nie Shiyun smiled sweetly, casually tucking her disheveled long hair behind her ear, causing someone’s gaze to become entranced, especially as his eyes followed the loose neckline, revealing a glimpse of alluring beauty.
“Casanova, if you keep staring at me so openly, I’ll have the other girls gang up on you later!”
Even though she had already been intimate with Xiao Yufan, Nie Shiyun still couldn’t withstand his bold gaze. Of course, such a threat only made him even more smug.
“Oh? And how will you have them gang up on me, Shiyun? Maybe in bed?”
Seeing Nie Shiyun’s blushing face, Xiao Yufan slowly leaned closer, finding this sensation quite enjoyable. Hearing his words, Nie Shiyun shot him a coquettish glare.
Just then, Xiao Yufan suddenly heard a voice from outside. The smile on his face, which had been present moments ago, immediately turned strange. He turned his head to look at Yingluo, who also had a subtle expression of displeasure on her face.
It seemed that the Hong family’s fellow was indeed persistent. However, since he had come here, Xiao Yufan naturally had to play the role of a hospitable host. If he acted too stingily, wouldn’t that tarnish his reputation? After all, in the north, he had never feared anyone…
