WMWG Chapter 70

Xia Qing’s face was sullen, as she stared at Lu Xiaoran speechlessly, beginning to doubt life.

Lu Xiaoran’s brows were full of anger, and his eyes looked murderous at the husky.

She fell silent watching the muddy husky cry fiercely at her honey badger: “woo woo woo”.

Xia Qing couldn’t help asking: “Don’t you like Xie Yunnan?”

“Since when did I like Xie Yunnan?” Lu Xiaoran shot back. “Who told you? They must have a grudge against me!”

He was more talkative than usual because he had already revealed his “true face” to Xia Qing.

Xia Qing said: “Everyone thinks you like Xie Yunnan.”

Lu Xiaoran: “???” Is there such a thing?

There really was such a thing!

After being nursed for a week, Duan Changqing’s body mostly recovered, and he was able to continue his hobby of raising spiritual plants.

That day, while watering the flowers, one of the Ghost King’s followers kindly reminded him, “Duan Changqing, although Xie Yunnan is very kind to you, you must be cautious… Otherwise, if you’re not careful, he will be taken away by others!”

No one would have come up to tell him this for no reason. To say so means… someone wants to rob him.

Duan Changqing asked, “What’s wrong?”

“What’s wrong? It’s that young master of the Lu family who came from Holy City… You should pay more attention.” The man said earnestly.

Just look at how arrogant Lu Xiaoran is! He usually ignores people, but he is very obedient towards Xie Yunnan, and will do whatever Xie Yunnan asks him to do!

The way he looks at Xie Yunnan isn’t right.

Of course everyone will think this way… Xie Yunnan is very handsome and also likes men.

Isn’t it normal for Lu Xiaoran to be tempted by Xie Yunnan?

Duan Changqing: “…”

He’s known Lu Xiaoran’s identity for a long time – he’s Xie Yunnan’s cousin.

Not only that… He also knew that although this cousin was cold on the outside, he was actually unreliable on the inside.

Lu Xiaoran likes Xie Yunnan? This is impossible. In his eyes… Lu Xiaoran is a little afraid of the Ghost King, and… likes Xia Qing.

“Also, you should practice the exercises that have been promoted recently… Although your foundation is poor, if you work hard, you can still become a warrior.” The man persuaded.

Duan Changqing is good-looking and doesn’t cause trouble at all. Many have a good impression of him, and don’t want him to be abandoned.

Duan Changqing smiled at the man: “Thank you.”

“No need to thank me.” This man was dazzled by Duan Changqing’s smile – this Duan Changqing is really getting better and better!

The man left after speaking. As soon as he left, Xie Yunnan came over: “What were you talking about just now?”

Duan Changqing talked to the man for a while, and even smiled at the man… Xie Yunnan felt a little sour as he watched from a distance.

“He asked me to keep an eye on you, and not let others pry at the corner.” Duan Changqing said.

Xie Yunnan: “…”

Then Duan Changqing added: “There are rumors that Lu Xiaoran likes you.”

“He’s my cousin… Why do they say he likes me?” Xie Yunnan only felt that his cousin wanted to fight him, and was curious about Duan Changqing… Fine, Lu Xiaoran is very curious, he is very curious about many things.

“Probably because… Lu Xiaoran behaves specially only towards you?”

“He should be a little afraid of my dad…” Xie Yunnan was helpless.

While he could see that Duan Changqing did not misunderstand them, this kind of rumor is difficult to explain. There really is no easy way to clarify things – Xie Yunnan can’t go and tell people that he has no relationship with Lu Xiaoran either.

So he simply ignored it.

As for Lu Xiaoran… He really wanted to find someone to explain things, but he couldn’t find a chance, so he could only tell others that he likes Xia Qing.

It’s a pity that no one believed him, and even thought that because he couldn’t catch up with Xie Yunnan, he could only chase after the second place.

Lu Xiaoran: “…” What the hell! He has always liked beautiful women!

As for Xia Qing… she wanted to distance herself from Lu Xiaoran, but was too embarrassed to refuse because she felt Xiaoran was too miserable!

Therefore… Maybe it was because everyone had nothing better to do, another rumor appeared in Hongye City, saying that… Xie Qing likes Xie Yunnan.

Such a rumor came about after the Ghost King took off that burnt face mask.

The burnt face was worn out, so the Ghost King didn’t plan to use it again, and was going to replace it with a different mask.

Compared with an airtight “face” that is tightly attached to the face, a mask is more comfortable to wear and easy to take off.

Now that it’s winter, a metal mask is a bit too cold to use, but he can always use a leather mask or a cloth mask.

After ‘dropping’ the Ghost King vest, he no longer needs to use a fixed mask, and can try various styles!

The Ghost King and Xie Yunnan mostly share similarities in the upper half of their faces, so when he finally made a leather mask, it only covered the upper half of his face.

After changing clothes and putting on the new mask, no one recognized him. When they finally confirmed that he was Xie Qing, everyone was stunned.

The lower half of the Ghost King’s exposed face looked too young!

Moreover, the condition of his skin, lips, neck… This Xie Qing is not only young, but his appearance should not be bad.

Many of those who refused to take a second look at him before were secretly glancing over.

“Xie Qing’s previous face should be completely fake!”

“His leather mask is very well-done, and his face is very smooth.”

“He must be handsome!”

…

For a time, everyone collectively agreed that Xie Qing is a handsome young man.

Then they realized… isn’t Xie Qing too good to Xie Yunnan?

Who cares about Lu Xiaoran! Xie Qing and Xie Yunnan really have a good relationship.

If there is something delicious, Xie Qing will definitely give it to Xie Yunnan, and if there is something good, he will definitely think of Xie Yunnan.

The Ghost King’s subordinates previously suspected he liked Xie Yunnan before, and now… their minds began to move again.

This time, it was not the Ghost King’s subordinate who came to remind Duan Changqing, but Meng Yan: “Sir, that Xie Qing, you have to be on guard… I think he has bad intentions towards Xie Yunnan!”

“It’s true!” Jiao Qinyun also spoke up. “He’s a little dissatisfied with you, and he’s too enthusiastic about Xie Yunnan.”

Duan Changqing: “…” The Ghost King shouldn’t be dissatisfied with him. He should be tangled over the side effects of the exercise, and is uncomfortable when facing him.

As for the Ghost King being overly enthusiastic towards Xie Yunnan… he’s an old father who recently reunited with his lost son after many years.

The people of Hongye City really have nothing to do, gossiping about such things all day.

Duan Changqing and Xie Yunnan were dumbfounded when they learned about the rumors flying around. What they didn’t know was that in Holy City, Liao Muye was instilling his point of view – Xie Yunnan is a bottom feeder who likes to seduce others and ask them to do things for him.

Lu Xiaoran’s father: “…” There is definitely something wrong with this Liao Muye’s brain!

He also has suspicions about this person – Liao Muye knows a lot of things that he shouldn’t know.
