I am a Stoned Girl

Hundreds of miles of the maple woodland was razed to the ground by the three generals, on the very first day of building Ning City. Now, only half of it was left.

The remaining woodlands were of circular shape. Lan Mei had been following behind Ning Fan in this unromantic maple forest, pointlessly circling along the edge of the forest.

It wasn’t that Ning Fan didn’t know how to f*** with Lan Mei, he was just intentionally acting as an ignorant. As for Lan Mei, she was preoccupied with apprehensions and fear.

She was afraid. She was afraid that Ning Fan would put pressure on her regarding the marriage. Thus, she wanted to make it clear to him now.

It was all because her, being a stone girl.

‘Ning Fan is already an intermediate Harmonious Spirit warrior. Today, his godfather ‘Black Devil Ning’ has become a popular figure in Yue Country. My dad had high expectations of him. How could it be possible to cancel this marriage…”

Her brows looked pretty accompanied by her attractive facial features, but the arrogance and coldness between her brows had never disappeared. It looked like she didn’t know what a smile was.

“We have already gone around for three hundred and fourteenth times…” Ning Fan reminded.

“En…Just walk a little while more…” Lan Mei bit her lips. She was facing the same problem – her mouth was petrified.

Should she go straight to the point, and tell him that she was a stone girl and advise him to give up? This might probably work. She heard that he had a very prurient interest with girls. Despite him already having a wife, there was another girl that was following him in and out. Naturally, she wouldn’t marry such a lustful man because she wouldn’t obtain any happiness from it.

The thing that mattered the most was her privacy. How could she speak about it to a man?

They had been circling the forest for three hundred and fourteen times already but her determination was getting more and more shaky.

“What do you want to talk about? Why don’t you want to marry me?”

Ning Fan simply asked, and it had unintentionally hit the key point.

At this moment, Lan Mei blushed and clenched her pink fist, but her expression showed embarrassment.

“I…”

“Hate me?” Ning Fan asked.

“No…it’s not really hating you…” Lan Mei shook her head and put her hands on her chest to calm her apprehension.

“Oh really? But I rather dislike you. I dislike arrogant girls.” Ning Fan didn’t realize how much his words had angered his listener.

Her cheek burnt as her shyness was replaced by anger. She took a step closer to Ning Fan, her head looked upwards, just slightly below Ning Fan’s lower jaw and said. “You truly don’t know how to please a woman!”

Lan Mei had a very short temper and she never smiled nor got angry with anyone. A lot of people had viewed this as an act of arrogance. But when she was in front of Ning Fan, she couldn’t maintain her usual indifferent expression because Ning Fan was continued to infuriate her. Clearly, Ning Fan was merely a teen but his words were extremely frigid.

He was deserved to be called the disciple of Han, the old monster, as their personality was virtually alike.

She unknowingly moved her face towards Ning Fan. The next moment, she realized that she was being intrusive as her forehead was only an inch away from his lower jaw. She could feel Ning Fan’s manly aura all over her face, causing her to blush and retreat so as to keep distance.

She stumbled over a rock and fell.

If a gentlemen was present on the scene, he would have quickly held her waist, preventing her from falling and pulled her into a nice hug. But this Ning Fan was only interested in watching her fall down and did absolutely nothing about it.

“You are…truly interesting. This is the first time that I see a cultivator fall down. Today, you have truly opened my eyes.”

“You! Humph!”

This was Ning Fan’s character. He would be very cold towards girls that he wasn’t interested in.

Nonetheless, Ning Fan’s coldness had stirred up some sentiments in her heart. She hated males who would always find ways to get close to her. On the contrary, she felt that her heart was at ease when she was treated by Ning Fan coldy, be it his expression or tone.

Had she taken a liking to him and his cold attitude?

“Pull me up!” Lan Mei extended her hands at Ning Fan shyly. This was the first time she held out her hand to a male.

“Why should I?”

“You…!”

She stood up herself feeling confused. But, she could feel a sense of comfort every time she heard his frosty reply. It was a comfort that couldn’t be put into words.

Perhaps, it wasn’t a bad thing if they got married. However, it was a pity that she wasn’t qualified to be a woman, so how could the marriage be possible?

The overwhelming shyness in her mind had diminished slightly. Thus, it was no longer that shameful to tell Ning Fan her big secret.

“Ning Fan, I can’t marry you. I would ask my dad to cancel the marriage. I am begging you. Can you promise me?”

“Cancelling the marriage? Hehe, I don’t mind. If you don’t want the marriage so much, so be it. You thought that you are the only person qualified to voice out your dislike towards a person? I’ve never said you that are my type either.” Ning Fan gave a frigid smile and turned to leave.

“No…It isn’t that I don’t like you…” Lan Mei’s face blush. She was covering her mouth with one hand while biting her lips, pulling Ning Fan over.

She would have never imagined that Ning Fan would agree to cancel the marriage without even asking for a reason. To her, this certainly exceeded her expectations, she no longer had to reveal her deepest secret.

Despite all of that, she didn’t know why she didn’t want to hide the truth from Ning Fan. She probably feared that Ning Fan would misunderstand her and think that the marriage was cancelled because of her extreme arrogance. She could feel Ning Fan’s prejudice against her.

“Actually…actually I am a stone girl.”
