Don't You Dare Say Another Word

The dark arrow that tore through the air brought with it the sound of the wind. It entered her ears. Yun Ran tried to move her body to dodge it, but she was shocked to discover that she could not move at all!

It was as if this body was not hers at all. Could it be that the original owner's soul had returned?!

The white light in her head was blinding. The world was spinning and she was so dizzy that she blacked out. Before she lost consciousness, she heard a voice in her head:

Fool!

Idiotic human!

The voice was genderless and filled with arrogance and disdain.

The flying sleeve arrow was fixed an inch behind Yun Ran's back and was held by a slender hand. The black arrow glowed with a faint cold light, complementing the slender fingers that were as flawless as jade.

The man in black on the ground tried to bite off the poison hidden between his teeth but failed. He was restrained by the guard, who looked at Nangong Mo inquiringly. "Your Highness?"

Nangong Mo's gaze remained on Yun Ran. He didn't even lift his eyelids. He just casually raised his hand, and the sleeve arrow instantly pierced through the man's shoulder blade with the force of lightning.

As soon as the man in black screamed in pain, the guard immediately covered his mouth and nose. He could not make a sound.

Only then did Nangong Mo raise his head and glance at the man in black, whose face was twitching in pain. He said casually, "Take him away."

"Yes!"

The man in black was taken away, and the guards also left. Only Feng Xuan was left in the hall. He looked at the unconscious woman in Nangong Mo's arms and did not know what to do.

"Master, although this woman's identity is unknown, it seems that she… doesn't have any ill intentions towards you."

Tonight's assassination was real, but so was the probing.

They had deliberately placed the last man in black there to test the woman.

Unexpectedly, she actually risked her life to block the arrow for her master! For her master, she even threw away her life!

"Master, do you want to invite a physician over to take a look?"

However, the arrow was held by Master and did not hurt her. She must have fainted from shock!

Nangong Mo frowned as he looked at the unconscious woman in his arms. Her skin was smooth, her face was like a peach blossom, and her sleeping face was calm. She looked so gentle and obedient. In close proximity, she was warm and fragrant. A faint fragrance lingered between her breaths, making one's heart flutter.

Nangong Mo closed his eyes and slowly reached out a finger to poke Yun Ran's cheek. His voice was muffled and cold. "Hey, stop pretending."

Feng Xuan was dumbfounded

Was she pretending to faint? That girl treated a ferocious beast like Big White like a kitten. How could she be scared unconscious by the black-clothed man's cold arrows? He was too careless!

However, Yun Ran had no intention of waking up at all. She lay silently in Nangong Mo's arms, looking quiet and obedient.

Nangong Mo frowned and pinched Yun Ran's cheek with a finger. The girl's fair face blushed like a peach blossom, but she still didn't wake up.

Nangong Mo was speechless.

She must have really fainted. Otherwise, she would have been cursing him in her head.

After hesitating for a moment, Nangong Mo stood up and placed Yun Ran on the bed. When his fingertips brushed past the white coat, he frowned slightly.

He didn't know what she had done, but the clothes were cold.

"Have Mu Nanfeng come over."

Feng Xuan was stunned when he heard this. "Master, do you want to invite… Miracle Physician Mu?"

That girl wasn't injured. Was there a problem…

Nangong Mo glanced over indifferently, and Feng Xuan immediately stood up. "Yes! I'll go immediately. Do you have any other instructions?"

"Have someone send over a dress."

"Ah? Okay, Master!"

Feng Xuan swept away like a whirlwind. For a moment, only Nangong Mo and Yun Ran were left in the huge bedroom. One of them was sleeping on the bed, and the other was pacing in front of the bed. His slightly furrowed eyebrows seemed to reflect his hesitation about something.

The moon was a blur as the night deepened.

Finally, Nangong Mo stood still in front of the bed as if he had made up his mind. He reached out and lifted the blanket.

That dress was too thin and cold to keep it on like this. She was already unconscious and the night was cold.

She was still wearing clothes underneath. He just wanted to take off that jacket.

Besides, he wouldn't look!

Nangong Mo turned his face away and reached for Yunran's collar.

Even though he kept assuring himself in his heart, Nangong Mo's fingers that were unbuttoning his shirt were still slightly stiff. After trying for a long time, he still couldn't undo a single button.

The man's good-looking brows furrowed tighter and tighter. For a moment, he did not control his strength well. He heard a ripping sound…

Amidst the cracking sound, Nangong Mo's clothes shattered. His fingertips paused, and his body suddenly froze.

Nangong Mo turned his head stiffly and looked at the two shreds of cloth in his hand. He pursed his thin lips.

If she woke up and saw this…

… .

An hour later, outside the Snow Listening Pavilion.

Feng Xuan looked helplessly at the man who was fanning himself and walking leisurely. His smile was stiff. "Miracle Physician Mu, can we walk faster? His Highness is still waiting!"

"What's the hurry? It's rare for a ten-thousand-year-old old tree made of ice dregs to start caring for a girl. Shouldn't I give him more time to be alone with a beauty?"

That person was dressed in blue and had a jade fan that swayed gently. He was indescribably carefree and satisfied. He had a pair of slightly upturned phoenix eyes and there was a hint of flirtatiousness in his eyes. The corners of his slightly raised mouth curled into a cynical smile.

Feng Xuan was speechless. Did Physician Mu think that His Highness liked to fool around like him?

When the two of them finally entered the inner hall, Feng Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. "Master, we've brought Doctor Mu here."

"Hey, hey, hey! Brought what? Am I a criminal?"

Nangong Mo glanced coldly at Mu Nanfeng. "Did you crawl over?"

Mu Nanfeng was instantly unhappy when he heard that. He snorted and rolled his eyes. "The beautiful scenery was intoxicating at night. I was drinking and chatting happily with a beauty! In the end, with just a word from you, I abandoned the beauty and rushed over. It's fine if you're not touched by what I did, but you're actually despising me? You heartless person!"

With that, his fan handle reached for Nangong Mo's perfectly carved chin, but Nangong Mo slapped it away mercilessly. "Get lost!"

"Fine. I'll get lost, then."

"If you can't cure her, leave your legs and head before getting lost."

Mu Nanfeng's handsome face twitched fiercely. He held his chest with one hand and looked at Nangong Mo with a bitter expression. "Have I fallen out of favor? As expected, only the new smile, while the old cry. With a new lover, I…"

Nangong Mo interrupted him coldly, "Don't you dare say another word."

His voice was low and cold, and his words were like ice as they fell to the ground.

"Okay! I'll shut up now!"

Mu Nanfeng put away his folding fan and walked to the bed. He placed his finger on Yun Ran's wrist and started to take her pulse.

Nangong Mo sat quietly at the side and watched him diagnose. He checked the pulse of her left and right hands and even lifted her eyelids to check. After a long time, Mu Nanfeng frowned and touched his chin. He paced back and forth beside the bed with a thoughtful expression. Moreover, his expression was very solemn.

Nangong Mo rarely saw him like this. He frowned slightly. "How is it?"

Mu Nanfeng stopped and looked at him with a serious expression. "It's a little serious."

Nangong Mo's eyes narrowed. "Is there a way to treat it?"
