You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

Chapter 762 (Listener)

Wei Chang had captured Tang Wei's heart with her persistent pursuit. When it came to pursuing girls, one had to be thick-skinned; being thin-skinned would lead to a lifetime of singleness. Waiting for a girl to chase after you was simply impossible.

"Is your injury getting better?" Mu Ran suddenly lifted the curtain and asked with concern.

Cang Konghong remained silent, nodding slightly. He seemed aloof.

It wasn't an act; that was just his personality. It was understandable why Yue Hua didn't like him. After all, any woman would appreciate receiving care from others.

Lie Gu had expressed his concern, but Cang Konghong kept all his care hidden in his heart and never expressed it.

Mu Ran didn't inquire further and returned to the carriage.

Wei Chang cursed that Cang Konghong was a fool. Mu Ran was already quite attractive, and although her strength wasn't high, she was definitely a good girl. She would be a perfect match for Cang Konghong, the fool.

Sitting inside the carriage, Tang Wei also scolded him. If a girl showed concern for you, the least you could do was to reciprocate. No wonder Yue Hua didn't like him; he deserved it.

Mu Ran didn't show any despondence. She sat quietly and contemplated the situation.

Seeing that Mu Ran didn't seem disappointed, Tang Wei started to worry. It seemed that Mu Ran regarded Cang Konghong merely as a lifesaver and had no other thoughts about him.

Alas...

It seemed like there was no hope.

The carriage slowly travelled along the road, and Wei Chang reported the situation to Ye Hua.

Upon hearing Wei Chang's report, Ye Hua was very pleased and praised Wei Chang's words. A war would definitely be ignited; it was time to shake the Voidless Empire!

This was just a small step; the road to revenge had just begun.

Ye Hua also inquired about Cang Konghong's condition and if there was any progress.

But when he heard Wei Chang say that Cang Konghong got injured while saving Mu Ran last night...

Ye Hua felt a bit relieved. Cang Konghong wasn't that foolish. However, his thoughts changed soon after. Feeling that Yue Hua didn't like Cang Konghong was normal; his personality truly didn't win girls' hearts. But soon, Ye Hua dismissed this thought.

He felt curious about Mu Ran, whom he would soon meet. He wondered how much she weighed and how impressive she was, considering Wei Chang's praise.

On the first night, the carriage parked by the riverside, and Cang Konghong caught a fish while Wei Chang made a fire to grill it for dinner.

The four of them seemed to be on a leisurely trip, with Tang Wei taking care of Mu Ran like an attentive older sister. Mu Ran was grateful and had a good impression of Tang Wei.

However, if Mu Ran knew that these three people were all frauds, she didn't know how she would react. The whole deception revolved around Mu Ran, and she, surprisingly, didn't notice. Perhaps it was Tang Wei's carefulness that made Mu Ran lower her guard, along with Cang Konghong's reckless self-sacrifice.

Being deceived by enemies was a lesson, but being deceived by trusted people was a blow.

In fact, it was better that Cang Konghong had no interaction with Mu Ran now. Once they did, and Mu Ran found out everything was a lie, that would be even worse.

After eating grilled fish, Wei Chang and Cang Konghong stayed outside while Mu Ran and Tang Wei rested inside the carriage.

"Tang Wei, let your cousin come inside the carriage to rest. It's windy outside, and his injuries shouldn't be exposed to the cold." Mu Ran said with concern, showing her thoughtfulness.

Tang Wei had a brilliant idea and whispered softly, "Miss, don't mind my cousin's reserved nature. If I ask him to come in, it won't work."

"Then let me talk to him." Mu Ran fell right into Tang Wei's trap.

As she saw Mu Ran getting off the carriage, Tang Wei wasn't sure if she had done the right thing. What if Mu Ran got hurt because of this?

It made sense though; if Mu Ran truly liked Cang Konghong, with his personality, he might not accept her, and it would break her heart.

She decided not to play matchmaker anymore and let things follow their natural course. She would see if they were meant to be and not force anything.

Cang Konghong sat cross-legged on a big rock nearby, seemingly cultivating. When he heard faint footsteps nearby, he opened his eyes.

Mu Ran looked at Cang Konghong's huge figure and recalled last night when he had shielded her with his body. At that moment...

She felt very safe.

"Cang Konghong, it's windy here. You should go rest inside the carriage."

Northern Chill's nights were accompanied by howling cold winds, especially in the plains where the wind was even stronger.

Cang Konghong shook his head upon hearing Mu Ran's words and closed his eyes again, seemingly unwilling to respond to her.

Mu Ran thought Cang Konghong's reaction was normal and didn't leave; instead, she sat on the other side of the big rock.

"I used to be quiet and didn't talk much when I was a child," Mu Ran said softly, gazing up at the starry sky.

Cang Konghong heard her, but still remained silent, reminiscing about how Yue Hua used to confide in him, telling him her thoughts.

'Since she doesn't like me, why would she share her thoughts with me? Am I just a listener to her?'

'I refuse to be merely a listener!'

Mu Ran didn't know what was going on in Cang Konghong's mind, and she didn't sense any change. She seemed to be consoling him, encouraging him to have confidence and not isolate himself.

"Some children didn't like to play with me when I was young, and even my brother didn't enjoy playing with me, saying I was a dull person," Mu Ran smiled bitterly, reminiscing about her difficult childhood.

"As I grew older, some people did start playing with me, but I knew they had ulterior motives."

As Mu Ran spoke, her tone changed. She had intended to console Cang Konghong, but it turned into sharing her own experiences.

"The constant deceit and scheming have exhausted me. Even in the Supreme Spirit Sect, I never experienced such things. Because of the Heavenly Dao, it seems like everyone's perception of me has changed. If I had known this, I wouldn't have tried to seize that Heavenly Dao Soul."

Mu Ran paused. Why was she talking about herself? Wasn't she supposed to encourage him?

"I haven't thanked you properly. Thank you for saving me last night. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be sitting here, talking to you."

"Thank you. You are truly a good listener."

Cang Konghong was reminded of Yue Hua by Mu Ran's final words. He remembered Yue Hua had also said something similar.

A surge of hostility suddenly erupted, and Cang Konghong jumped off the rock, lying down near the campfire.

His message was clear: he didn't want to listen to her talk, nor did he want to be a mere listener.

Mu Ran didn't understand why Cang Konghong suddenly got angry. Did she say something wrong just now?

But she didn't feel like she had said anything wrong. Looking at Cang Konghong, Mu Ran pursed her lips and walked back into the carriage.

Tang Wei had also heard the conversation and silently cursed Cang Konghong. After living for thousands of years, why was he still so childish? Mu Ran didn't intentionally bring up your sad memories.

Yet, there he was, throwing a tantrum. Acting like this, no girl would like him.
