Chapter 260 Hiding under the covers



“Nangong Xu, I am Jun Molin’s fiancée. We already have two children,” Yun Qingran said helplessly.

Wu Yuan had saved her three times and gone through thick and thin with her. If she could, she would actually be very willing to become friends with him.

But not now!

“I don’t mind. I can help you raise your two children. I can treat them as my own. I can give up my own children.” Nangong Xu looked at Yun Qingran with pleading eyes.

"Nangong Xu, why bother? You are a prince of Southern Chu, the future emperor of Southern Chu. You are good-looking. You can have any kind of woman you want. Why are you so fixated on me?" Yun Qingran advised him.

"I don't want any other women, I only want you," Nangong Xu said stubbornly.

"Nangong Xu, have you ever considered that it's possible you don't actually love me, but only think you've fallen in love with me because you're used to competing with Jun Molin?" Yun Qingran asked him.

“Our first meeting was by chance, and my subsequent two attempts to get closer to you were indeed for that reason,” Nangong Xu said truthfully. Then he quickly explained, “But now I’m certain that I’ve truly fallen in love with you. You don’t know, but when I realized my feelings for you were different, I thought about killing you, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.”

"Ah, you thought about killing me?" Yun Qingran looked at Nangong Xu in shock and fear.

"Ranran, don't misunderstand. I just didn't understand my feelings for you back then. Now, there's absolutely no way I would kill you." Nangong Xu looked at her intently.

"Thank you for sparing my life." None of my family members understand that being liked by someone also puts one's life in danger.

“Nangong Xu…”

"Ranran." Yun Qingran was just about to continue persuading Nangong Xu to like someone else when Yun Qingbi arrived.

"My older brother is here, quickly hide!" Yun Qingran felt a chill run down her spine.

"Are you protecting me?" Nangong Xu asked Yun Qingran with a piercing gaze.

Of course not. I was protecting my older brother because I was afraid he would see you and you would kill him to silence him.

"Mmm." Yun Qingran nodded haphazardly, then pointed to the blanket on the bed, "Go hide under the blanket."

The tent was completely exposed, and only the blankets on the bed could barely conceal a person.

"Mmm." Nangong Xu quickly got into bed and pulled the blanket over his body.

Nangong Xu was very thin, but he was still a tall man of 1.85 meters. Even though he was covered by a blanket, he could still tell that there was someone inside.

Yun Qingran gritted her teeth and crawled into the quilt as well.

"Ranran, you..." Nangong Xu looked at her in shock.

Yun Qingran pressed his head down into the blanket and warned him, "Don't move or make a sound."

"Mmm." Nangong Xu remained motionless under the covers.

"Ranran, are you asleep?" Yun Qingbi asked from outside.

"No, is there anything I can help you with, brother?" Yun Qingran asked.

Yun Qingbi lifted the tent flap and walked in from the outside. Seeing her lying on the bed, he asked, "Didn't you say you weren't asleep yet?"

"I was just about to go to sleep," Yun Qingran replied.

"You sleep in your armor?" Yun Qingbi asked, pointing to the exposed armor.

“Yes, it’s more convenient to sleep in armor at night if something happens,” Yun Qingran replied.

“That’s true, I won’t take off my armor when I sleep later.” Yun Qingbi found a seat and sat down.

"Big brother, aren't you going to sleep?" Yun Qingran's whole body stiffened.

Damn it, just as I pressed Nangong Xu's head into the blanket, it landed right in front of my chest. His face was now facing my chest.

(。>︿<)_θ

Luckily, he was wearing armor, otherwise his face would have been buried in his chest.

(ー_ー)!!

"I can't sleep. I'm worried about Princess Zhaohua." Yun Qingbi sighed deeply, looking like a heartbroken puppy.

"I've already told you, Yan Jing wouldn't dare hurt Shuangshuang, so don't worry," Yun Qingran comforted him.

“I know, but I’m afraid Yan Jing will mistreat her, that she won’t have enough to eat or wear.” Yun Qingbi was very upset.

"Brother, the weather has been getting warmer these past few days, so there's no problem with not having enough to wear. As for not having enough to eat, don't worry, girls don't usually eat enough anyway."

"Ah, why aren't you full?" Yun Qingbi asked in confusion.

"To lose weight." Yun Qingran glanced at Yun Qingbi. "Big brother, you're too insensitive to girls."

"I don't think Princess Zhaohua needs to lose weight. She looks good even if she's chubby," Yun Qingbi said with a sweet smile, recalling Yan Shuangshuang's appearance.

Clouds Dyed: →_→

My older brother is a hopeless romantic!

Yun Qingran stiffened. She felt something she shouldn't have felt. She looked down and saw that Nangong Xu's handsome face was flushed and he looked embarrassed.

"Big brother, you should go back to sleep," Yun Qingran said to Yun Qingbi.

"Ranran, I can't sleep." Yun Qingbi sighed.

"If you can't sleep, find a night shift to work."

"Huh?" Yun Qingbi looked at her, puzzled.

"What I mean is, if you can't sleep, go back to your room and read a book or practice your sword, because I want to sleep," Yun Qingran said.

"Isn't your motto 'If the moon doesn't sleep, you won't sleep'?" Yun Qingbi said, looking at her teasingly.

"Because I've decided to secretly go to bed early and then amaze you all." Yun Qingran nervously started spouting nonsense.

Not only Yun Qingran, but Nangong Xu was even more nervous. If this continued, he would lose control.

"What strange talk. Alright, alright, go to sleep." Yun Qingbi stood up and said.

"Okay, goodnight, big brother." Yun Qingran waved to him.

"No, Ranran, I still can't sleep. Get up and come to my tent to have a couple of drinks with me," Yun Qingbi said.

"Okay, okay, big brother, you go out and wait for me. I'll get up right away and have a couple of drinks with you," Yun Qingran said happily.

"Then hurry up." Yun Qingbi went out.

After Yun Qingbi left, Yun Qingran immediately got out of bed.

Nangong Xu was still lying in bed, hugging the blanket tightly, looking at Yun Qingran with a resentful gaze, like a bullied little wife.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Yun Qingran couldn't help but burst into laughter, laughing so hard she bent over.

"Don't laugh," Nangong Xu sternly rebuked Yun Qingran.

Unfortunately, his current appearance lacks any intimidating power; instead, he seems like a puppy barking.

"I'm going to find my older brother," Yun Qingran said, suppressing a laugh, before turning and quickly leaving.

Nangong Xu pulled back the covers and glanced at the scene, then quickly covered himself up again in embarrassment.

As soon as Yun Qingran stepped out of the tent, she was immediately pulled over by Yun Qingran. "Ranran, are you alright?"

"I'm fine?" Yun Qingran spun around to show him.

"Was there someone in your tent just now?" Yun Qingbi asked seriously.

"How did you know, brother?" Yun Qingran asked in surprise.

"Because you're acting strangely, and I also noticed your blanket is too bulky." Yun Qingbi breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried sick, but dared not make any rash moves for fear of alerting the enemy.
