Chapter 304: Ungrateful Gentleman

Chapter 304: Ungrateful Gentleman

Jade Flood Dragon Pavilion.

Li Ran sat in the sedan and looked at the two princesses in front of him. His throat tightened.

"I'm just here to say goodbye to the two princesses. I don't have any other intentions. I'm afraid this isn't inappropriate, right?"

Sheng Zhixia whispered, "I don't have any other intentions. I just want to have a good talk with the Sheng Zi."

"That's right. It's just talking." Sheng Anyi agreed.

Li Ran scratched his head. "What do you have to say?"

When the two women heard that, their faces turned red.

Sheng Zhixia stuttered, "I, I am tired. I just want to lie down and rest."

"That's right. Let's rest." Sheng Anyi blushed and continued to agree.

Li Ran shook his head. "Then rest well. Why do you want me to lie down too?"

Sheng Zhixia hesitated for a long time before he said in a low voice as if he was resigned to her fate, "I want Sheng Zi Li to hug me..."

"That's right. It's just a hug... Ah?" Sheng Anyi recalled, and her face turned red.

She did not expect her sister to dare to say such words.

Li Ran was also stunned.

"Does Sheng Zi Li mind?" Sheng Zhixia blushed and looked at him nervously and expectantly.

Li Ran snapped back to his senses and said with a smile, "If the two princesses don't mind, what else can I say?"

He leaned against the bed and patted the empty space beside him.

"Just hug me. Don't make any bad plans. I'm not some random person."

Pfft!

"Sheng Zi Li is still so narcissistic," Sheng Zhixia said smilingly.

She leaned lightly against Li Ran's chest, her heart about to jump out.

Sheng Anyi hesitated for a moment before walking to the other side and slowly lying down.

Air suddenly quieted down.

Eyes of the two princesses swirled, and their cheeks were burning as if they had a fever.

As soon as they heard that Li Ran was leaving tomorrow, they couldn't bear to part with him. They couldn't do anything and just wanted to lie in his arms for a while.

At this moment, Li Ran asked, "By the way, where's Sheng Ye?"

Sheng Anyi replied, "Ever since the Immortal Ascension Assembly ended, my father seemed to have been stimulated and secluded in the ancestral land."

"He's in seclusion?"

Li Ran nodded. "That's good. Don't come back to punish me later."

Sheng Zhixia hugged him and coyly said, "What crime has Sheng Zi Li committed?"

Li Ran smiled. "Sleeping with the princesses isn't a crime?"

Pui!

"Nonsense." Two of them patted him lightly, looking extremely shy.

For a moment, the atmosphere was cheerful and warm.

Last time the three of them were lying on the same bed was because they were drunk.

This time, they were all clear-headed, but they didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, it was natural.

Sheng Zhixia thought of something and said, "Sect Master Chu made such a big commotion at the Immortal Ascension Assembly. Are you injured?"

She never thought that the mysterious woman who had trespassed into the palace would be the sect master of the Myriad Sword Pavilion.

Moreover, there was a direct conflict with Li Ran.

Li Ran shook his head. "No."

He had not suffered at all. Instead, it was Chu Lingchuan who did. Not only had she failed to snatch a disciple, she was even slapped a few times for no reason.

Li Ran felt a little warm when he thought of Sheng Zhixia standing up for him at the big meeting, regardless of his identity.

"Speaking of which, I still need to thank Princess Sheng for this. To dare to speak up for me in such a situation is still very righteous."

Corners of Sheng Zhixia's mouth curled up, and she said proudly, "Of course, I am the most loyal."

Then, she frowned slightly. "But that Sect Master Chu is too unreasonable. She clearly chose you, but she still wants to break the rules and interfere."

Li Ran shook his head. "Although she has a fiery temper, she doesn't have any bad intentions."

To be precise, she was completely heartless.

If he stood in Chu Lingchuan's position, there would definitely be three or more ways to take Shen Ning away, but she chose the stupidest one.

After these few days of contact, he understood the Sect Master's temper even more.

She seemed unreasonable, but she did not use her power to bully others.

Occasionally, she liked to play a "careful game", but she was clumsy enough to make people see through it.

Sometimes, she was a little dazed, just like... Like a puppy?

Sheng Zhixia nodded in confusion.

Since Sheng Zi Li said she wasn't a bad person, he was definitely not a bad person.

At that moment, Sheng Anyi said worriedly, "But she's still the head of a sect. What if she remembers a grudge? What if she finds trouble with you in the future?"

"She won't." Li Ran smiled and said, "She's not that petty, and we can be considered friends now."

"That's good." Sheng Anyi heaved a sigh of relief.

After all, that was an Emperor-level mighty figure, so it was best not to provoke her easily.

However, behind the curtain of bedroom, there was a faint snort in the air.

......

Li Ran rubbed his chin. "But she feels a little weird these two days."

Today, after sending Aqin back, Chu Lingchuan said that she didn't care about Li Ran, but she still brought him back to Central City.

Then, she angrily returned to the Li family home.

He didn't know why the other party was angry.

After the Immortal Ascension Assembly ended, the disciples of the various sects left Central City, including Lin Langyue and the others.

Because of Chu Lingchuan's idea, they did not say goodbye.

However, they could see Yue Jianli when they went to Cloud Sword Island.

When the matter is over, he could go to the Tianshu Institute to see his master and Langyue.

As for Demoness Qin...

That would depend on whether Liu Xunhuan would welcome him or not.

Li Ran thought to himself.

When he came back to his senses, the two princesses had already fallen asleep.

Their fair and pretty faces rested on his arm, breathing evenly and exhaling like an orchid.

Li Ran carefully pulled back his arm.

Looking at the two identical cute sleeping faces, he couldn't help but be stunned.

An indescribable impulse surged in his heart. He lowered his head and murmured on Sheng Zhixia's face, "The last time you ambushed me, I took revenge undeserving of being a gentleman."

He turned to look at Sheng Anyi and muttered to himself, "Yes, we can't favor one over the other."

Then, a mouth appeared over her face.

Then, he got up contentedly and tiptoed out of the bedroom.

After he left, the palace was still quiet.

Two princesses lay quietly on the bed as if they were really asleep.

However, from a closer look, one would notice that their long eyelashes were trembling slightly. Their cheeks were flushed red, and their ears had been painted red.

......

The curtain of night rose, the stars twinkling.

The streets were empty. Li Ran walked towards the Li Residence with his hands behind his back. Two shadows were pulled by the moonlight.

Wait, why were there two shadows?

He suddenly turned his head and saw Chu Lingchuan with her hands behind her back, looking at him with a smile.

"Good evening, Master Li."
