Chapter 260 - Hugged, and Kissed Too (2/2)

She didn’t seem to have passed out from pain and fell asleep instead, because her face was calm and the cold sweat on her forehead was gone, only a few beads of sweat came out from the tip of her nose.

Gong Moran stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat off, his eyes moved slightly, slowly moving down until they landed on the woman’s pink lips.

He looked away after a while, then grabbed the woman’s wrist and called back the heart-biting gu.

Gong Moran looked at the crystal clear gu worm on his palm and couldn’t help but glanced once again at the woman on the bed.

Heart-biting gu was a kind of gu worm that’s difficult to control; once they get into a host, they will quickly burrow inside and bite their hearts, even their master needs some time before they can call that heart-addicted gu out. However, after several months of refining, this heart-biting gu could already fully obey his orders; if he ordered it to swallow how much then it would swallow that much, if he ordered it to swallow how many times then it would also swallow how many times.

Except when the heart-biting gu couldn’t wait taking a bite at first, Gong Moran then forcibly ordered it to stop devouring, he was very sure that the gu stopped after that.

Therefore, when she saw the little girl was still sweating on her forehead due to pain, Gong Moran was very puzzled.

Now, Gong Moran might’ve understood a little bit.

After the unexpected kiss just now, the little girl fell asleep because of drowsiness, so she was clearly… pretending.

Gong Moran sighed lightly as he pinched the space between his eyebrows.

The little girl tried everything possible to get close to him, hugged him and… kissed him, how could he allow this to happen?

Gong Moran got up and carefully put the heart-biting gu back into the silver goblet, and then lightly paced around the room.

Didn’t know how long it took, he suddenly went to the outer hall and stood in front of the open window.

Looking out from here, he could see a panoramic view of one side of Moran Hall that was dyed in an inky night veil, an almost full moon illuminated the entire Moran Hall, spreading its silver yarn over the ground of the courtyard. A big tree inside that courtyard swayed and quivered along with the wind, casting its shadow on the ground, disrupting the white radiance, gleaming reflection of the light that was undulating gently.

Gong Moran raised his head to look at the silver moon that was about to complete, didn’t know what he thought of, but the pair of eyes that just rippled with a bit of waves gradually changed back into stagnant water, a layer of cold air slowly enveloped them.

Nan Xun woke up hungry in the middle of the night. When she woke up, she was on the small bed in the outer hall.

She had a good dream last night, she dreamed that she was stepping on a mass of soft clouds, food everywhere around her, every kind of roast chicken, roast duck and roast suckling pig were floating around like clouds, she can just stretch out her hand and she’d be able to grab one and eat.

Nan Xun touched her empty belly and instantly understood why she had such a dream, she’s just too hungry ah.

Although she had eaten a lot during the day, but they were all easily digested food, they must have all been digested completely by now.

Nan Xun yawned, opened her misty eyes, and slowly fumbled out of bed.

Then, she lit a lantern and took it to the small kitchen.

A crackling sound came from the kitchen as Nan Xun started to make a big hodgepodge stew by herself.

A pot of stew made by mixing various ingredients, although it tasted a little bit unpalatable, this dish was the fastest to make. In order to fill her stomach up quickly, she had no other way but to bear with the taste.

Nan Xun sat on a wooden bench next to the small stove, dozing off, when a loud shout suddenly came from behind her, which made her jump in fright.

Nan Xun subconsciously kicked the black shadow behind her.
