"Of course it looks good, flawless,"
Xu Ran pinched his own chin, observing very seriously.
You should know that, in his previous life, this kind of scene would usually only appear in some illustrators' books. And with real people, if they didn't have the beauty filter, it would truly be a bit harsh on the eyes. However, with Han Yue and their beauty, no matter how they dressed, there wouldn't be too jarring an image.
As long as someone is pretty, even if their fashion sense equals zero, it doesn't matter at all.
"You little enchantress, you really want to bewitch someone to death. It's a good thing no one else saw you looking so innocent yet seductive; otherwise, who knows how many more rivals I'd mysteriously gain," Xu Ran stepped forward and wrapped Han Yue in his arms, his index finger gently touching her sexy belly button.
"Why would I go out and let others see? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't sacrifice myself," Han Yue said coquettishly but proudly, delighted by Xu Ran's compliments.
No matter what, she was the Han Family's young lady. It was one thing to show such a side to Xu Ran in the privacy of her boudoir, but she had no wish for others to see it. If anyone else who shouldn't see did see, she would absolutely be ruthless.
"Let's close the door first; we can talk more inside!"
Xu Ran hooked the door shut and then...
...
What Han Yue didn't know, not far away, was that her charming and alluring demeanor had already been witnessed by two people.
It was none other than Xin Lan and Han Xue.
At this very moment, both women were staring intently in the direction of Han Yue's boudoir, their thoughts unknown.
Xin Lan was somewhat okay with it, as she was already used to it. In fact, she was even more capable than Han Yue.
The sweet and naive Han Xue, however, was stunned.
Was this the proud and pure sister she knew? This was too... Han Xue found herself at a loss for words. Although she had a vague idea of what would happen when Xu Ran had taken Han Yue away, seeing it firsthand brought a different feeling.
Of course, what mattered most was the thrill. An odd surge of feeling even made her unable to resist the urge to keep watching to satisfy her voyeuristic desire.
"She really is a formidable rival."
"Han Yue is much stronger than I imagined. Her legs are a bit fuller than mine, her skin is about the same as mine, and her figure isn't much different either. I didn't expect Han Yue's figure to be this good, why hadn't I noticed before?" Xin Lan watched with great relish.
She had ingested a pill that hid her own aura, so she wasn't worried about Han Yue discovering her. As for Xu Ran, he was too lazy to care about such trifles.
Xin Lan secretly competed with Han Yue in her mind, from skin quality to measurements, nearly anything that could be compared Xin Lan measured in her thoughts.
"You, you guys..."
Han Xue blushed, embarrassed by Xin Lan's bold words. She hadn't expected that Xin Lan, who always seemed so gentle and quiet, could say something so shocking. And she insisted on bringing her to spy on her sister and Xu Ran... How embarrassing.
"What about us? Don't tell me you don't like Xu Ran. I won't believe it," Xin Lan batted her big eyes at Han Xue. Han Xue and Han Yue looked about thirty percent similar, both very beautiful potential beauties. With smooth white skin, a delicate and well-proportioned figure, even she felt a bit envious. No wonder the guy from the Hong Family kept thinking about her; she naturally had the goods.
"I don't, don't talk nonsense!"
Han Xue's heart was struck by Xin Lan's words, and she suddenly became flustered.
She had completely changed her view of Xu Ran. The way he slaughtered all the powerful warriors of the Hong Family in a blink of an eye, leaving destruction in his wake, had utterly captivated her. Even though it had been a while since then and the battlefield outside had been nearly cleaned up, she still found it hard to move on from that image.
All girls hardly dislike men with domineering attitudes.
Especially those who are domineering to others but tender to them are simply irresistible.
"Really? Then who was it that was composing poetry and painting with Xu Ran in a certain place, so lovey-dovey?" Xin Lan teased.
"Were you spying on us again?"
Han Xue puffed up with anger, glaring fiercely at Xin Lan.
She thought this woman was just too hateful. It was bad enough that she spied on her sister, but to spy on her and Xu Ran was even worse. It was a relief that they hadn't done anything.
"I watched openly and honestly," Xin Lan said seriously. Xin Lan felt that she needed to grasp more leverage over the Han sisters in the future, so she could maintain an invincible position in their interactions.
"Hmph," Han Xue snorted petulantly.
...
"So, what kind of person is Xu Ran? He must also be quite famous at Canaan Academy, right? It's a pity I've never been there." Han Xue held her smooth chin with both hands, a bit daydreaming, imagining Han Yue and Xin Lan's encounters with Xu Ran at Canaan Academy and couldn't help but be envious.
"Famous at Canaan Academy? If he wished, even the dean of Canaan Academy would be his," Xin Lan said with a beaming smile.
"How is that possible? Canaan Academy is the number one academy in the world." Han Xue's mouth hung open slightly in disbelief. Even as ignorant as she was, she knew how formidable Canaan Academy truly was.
Over the years, the academy had nurtured countless powerful individuals. These individuals then entered the major forces across the Continent, creating an immense network of relationships.
Even if they couldn't compare to the powerful forces of Zhongzhou, as an academy, Canaan Academy was already at the pinnacle.
And Xin Lan said that if Xu Ran wanted, he could become the dean of Canaan Academy, which was almost too much for Han Xue's little heart to handle.
The dean of Canaan Academy, even the many great forces in Zhongzhou would afford a measure of respect, right?
It was then that Han Xue realized just how unbelievably strong Xu Ran had become.
"Canaan Academy? That's nothing for him. In this world, only he bullies others, no one can bully him."
"So now we just need to wait calmly for the people from Feng Lei Pavilion to come and seek their own deaths. Even if a Dou Sheng came, Xu Ran could slap them dead," Xin Lan said with a light tone, without taking Feng Lei Pavilion seriously at all.
Dou Sheng!
Han Xue's eyes widened in shock!
"Are you saying that Xu Ran is stronger than a typical Dou Sheng?"
Han Xue was naturally aware of the rankings in the Fighting Spirit Continent; Dou Sheng was already at the very top.
"What else do you think that allows Xu Ran to disregard Feng Lei Pavilion? Even if all the strong ones in Zhongzhou were to join forces, they probably wouldn't be enough for Xu Ran to fight," Xin Lan said nonchalantly, while Han Xue slowly became numb.
She wasn't sure if Xin Lan was exaggerating, but she knew Xu Ran was strong, strong enough to scoff at Feng Lei Pavilion.
