Chapter 120

Yan Ran has been suffering recently . On the one hand, he didn’t understand Li Yuan . He was willing to take responsibility, yet Li Yuan still avoided seeing himself and avoided him in every way possible . On the other hand, he was guilty of causing Xia Yuqing to give birth prematurely and was worried that people would retaliate . Waiting left and right for this so-called storm, Yan Ran decided he should conclude everything during the calm before the storm .

Having been so nervous for several days, Yan Ran was panicking and treating everyone as an enemy . Before others could even take action, he had almost died of mental exhaustion . Under this chaos and self torment, Yan Ran finally understood why some heinous thieves burned, killed, and looted in their youth, but was then willing to surrender and go to prison for the rest of their life . G.o.d, it is too cruel to be a heartbreaker!

With all sorts of torment and hards.h.i.+p, Yan Ran decided to give himself up . Wasn’t there a good saying? If you confess, they’ll be lenient, but resistance will make them more strict? Now that he surrendered himself and had a good att.i.tude of pleading guilty, even if those girls were angry and beat him up, they shouldn’t be too hard on him .

But to be honest, Yan Ran was too optimistic . If he did this after eating Li Yuan clean at the beginning, the effect would have been very good, but now…

Yan Ran was sitting in the front hall of the Xiefang palace anxiously . Waiting for Xia Yuqing and others to arrive, he waited for a long time, but no one was seen . As soon as he picked up the tea on the side, he heard a low laugh .

“The Gorgeous Tutor has welcomed us with his presence, excuse us for not greeting you right away . ”

“Pu…” Yan Ran was startled . The tea in his mouth spurted out like a fountain .

“Oh…” The few palace maids on the side hurriedly blocked the spray of tea . Xia Yuqing also waved her hand at the spray that melted into the air with a look of disgust .

The complexion of Cui Er and the others changed slightly . Xia Yuqing was still in confinement now, she was not allowed to be exposed to wind or cold water . What’s the matter with Grand Tutor? Does he want Niang Niang to catch a cold? Since the Huo Feiyan incident, how can these girls tolerate others hurting Xia Yuqing? Of course, this simply added to his faults .

Yan Ran didn’t know that his failure had been added to his account, so he wiped the tea stains off the corners of his mouth, “Niang Niang, Chen…”

Before he finished his first sentence, he was interrupted by Cui Er: “Niang Niang, the Grand Tutor seems to be dissatisfied with the tea in our palace, is he going to blame us palace girls for inadequate hospitality?”

Lu Rui also hurriedly added: “Yes, Niang Niang, Nu Bi clearly saw the Grand Tutor spraying water at Niang Niang just now . Is it possible that he has something against Niang Niang?”

“…” Yan Ran really jumped into the Yellow River and couldn’t wash himself clean . With a bitter face, he said, “Niang Niang misunderstood . Chen was just too surprised to hear Niang Niang’s voice, so… it was not intentional . Please Niang Niang, forgive me . ”

Unexpectedly, Xia Yuqing became more upset after listening to Yan Ran’s explanation, “Too surprised to hear my voice? Is my voice so terrible? The Gorgeous tutor was so scared he spat out the tea? Hmph…”

“…Of course not, Niang Niang’s voice is like an oriole coming out of the valley . Niang Niang’s voice is beautiful and pleasing to the ears, Chen… Chen was just so gullied by Niang Niang’s voice, I ask Niang Niang to note this . ” This is the first time Yan Ran had to be so humble and kneel to others . Usually, even to Feng Tingye, Xu Lao, or even Zhang Suns.h.i.+, he would not have to be so tired and panicked . Speaking like this makes him want to cry!!!

Yet Xia Yuqing didn’t accept his efforts at all, she became more displeased with a cold snort: “Orioles, Orioles, is the Gorgeous Tutor mocking me and saying that everything I say is yellow*? You are yellow, your whole family is yellow! Also the way you are hesitating to speak means you are probably not speaking your actual thoughts, you are just a hypocrite!!”

* oriole = huang (yellow) ying

* yellow could also mean talking about dirty stuff (p**n), etc

“…” Yan Ran was seriously injured by the word hypocrite . He almost lost his fighting spirit . Tears have already started flowing in his heart . Why did I want to surrender? Why did I want to come to communicate with an irrational human? Ahhh, I can’t stand it anymore, where is the knife? Where is the knife? !

After Xia Yuqing finished speaking, Yan Ran didn’t refute . She became more convinced that it was what she thought . She gave someone a blank look with a calm face, then walked to the main seat and sat down . She spoke angrily: “Gorgeous Tutor why have you come today?”

“Eh…” Yan Ran glanced around without a trace, but didn’t notice the existence of Li Yuan . His heart trembled, and he swallowed hard, “Um, why is Yuan Er not here? Chen… Chen came here to find Yuan Er!”

“Yuan Er?” Xia Yuqing raised her eyebrows, “Cui Er, when did a girl named Yuan Er come to our palace? Why don’t I know?”

Cui Er smiled . She bowed and replied: “Responding to Niang Niang, not only Niang Niang, but Nu Bi also has never heard of a palace lady named Yuan Er who came to our palace . ”

Xia Yuqing nodded and turned to look at Yan Ran: “Gorgeous Tutor, there is no maid named Yuan Er in my palace, did you find the wrong place?”

“Um…” Yan Ran choked again and laughed dryly, “It’s Chen’s mistake . Chen is looking for a lady named Li Yuan . ”

“Oh, so you came to look for Xiao Yuan . Xiao Yuan just went out and is not in the palace . ”

“Not here? Then Chen will come again next time, I will leave first . ” Yan Ran seeing the current situation, wanted to slip out; but unfortunately, it is impossible for someone to let him go .

“Want to run? Not that easy! Cui Er, close the door and release Xiao Bai . ” Xia Yuqing lifted her eyebrows, and uttered a low halt towards the front hall doors .

“Yes, Niang Niang . ” The girls who were guarding the gate earlier pushed the doors and closed the entrance a second before Yan Ran rushed out .

Before Yan Ran recovered from the astonishment of being locked up by someone, he heard a loud dog bark behind him . He froze and turned around . His eyes shrank sharply .

Cui Er had grabbed several dogs out of nowhere . Apart from Xia Yuqing’s famous pet, Xiao Bai, who stood in the front and grinned at him, there were also several giant wolfhounds .

“Xiao Bai, go, bite this guilty man . ” Xia Yuqing gave an order . As soon as the rope in Cui Er’s hand loosened, Xiao Bai led a few wolfhounds and went straight to pounce on Yan Ran .

“Wowowo…” You dare to bully my rice ball sister . I’m going to bite you to death!

“Wowowo…” A gang of dog barks sounded from the front hall, making people feel terrified .

Yan Ran ran as soon as he saw the dogs running over, but a two-legged man could not outrun a four-legged beast after all . In a moment, his clothes were bitten off by one of the wolfhounds and peeled off his body with a rip .

Yan Ran’s face changed slightly . If he hadn’t dodged quickly just now, the wolfhound’s blood thirsty mouth would have greeted his thigh . Now due to his lag, several other big dogs on the side also rushed forward . Yan Ran raised his hand and wanted to swat it away, but suddenly heard Lu Rui who was standing next to Xia Yuqing exclaim .

“Oh, I forgot to tell Grand Tutor, except for Xiao Bai who is our mother’s pet, the other dogs are personally selected by the emperor and given to Niang Niang to help Xiao Bai continue its lineage . Grand Tutor, make sure you take it easy . I heard that these dogs are Western Terrier wolfhounds and are a precious breed . If you accidentally b.u.mp into them, the compensation will be a small matter, but Xiao Bai being angry will be a big deal . ”

Yan Ran raised his hand and froze suddenly . How could he not understand the meaning of Lu Rui’s words? When Xiao Bai is angry, it means that Xiao Bai’s owner Xia Yuqing would be angry . When Xia Yuqing is angry, his black-bellied friend, the owner of this family, will also be angry . Most importantly, Li Yuan will definitely be angry . At that time, he will suffer and die even worse .

“Oh…” Yan Ran felt wronged . A wolf dog unexpectedly hung on his arm, scratching him and making him release a painful cry . He reflexively threw the dog away from his arm . Everyone could only hear a “Jiu” sound, then the dog flew out like that .

Suddenly, Yan Ran burst out a swear word: “This dog is a f**king male . Your Xiao Bai is also male, how are they going to continue its lineage?”

“Uh…” Lu Rui was startled . She suddenly remembered that Cui Er had mentioned to Niang Niang that spring was coming and that Xiao Bai was already in heat . Niang Niang was so excited and had a heart-stirring look when she was choosing Xiao Bai’s spouse . She silently looked at the sky… She really didn’t know about this .

“What if it’s two male dogs? Nowadays, even sows can climb trees . It is not uncommon for two male dogs to give birth to a litter of puppies . ” Xia Yuqing raised her head and gave someone a disdainful look, as if she was mocking Yan Ran, you are really not in with the time!

Yan Ran was so angry that he almost vomited a mouthful of blood . Before he could catch his breath, the dogs who had been frightened by his flick just now rushed forward one after another .
