Murano Momo is a cunning doctor

Chapter 1204 Jealousy

Jiang Xiaochuan could hardly bear to look—he had never thought of himself as a gentleman when it came to matters of love and sex.

Compared to Lao Liu, I'm as innocent as a blank sheet of paper.

The sixth brother seemed to realize that his thought was a bit immoral, so he quickly dropped his lewd expression and changed the subject with a grin:

"Well... I really should have thrown a Thunderbolt Pearl at the Murong family when I left! A 'boom' would have been so satisfying!"

"Don't take out the Thunder Pearl so casually again."

At this point, Jiang Xiaochuan's expression suddenly turned serious. "Especially in front of Tang Ran, otherwise, given her temper, she would definitely break your legs."

"why?"

Old Liu was completely bewildered. That thing was useful and powerful, and it had become his favorite.

"You still have the nerve to ask?"

Jiang Xiaochuan was almost amused by the fat man's slowness. "Have you forgotten where this bead came from?"

He deliberately emphasized the word "please," and Lao Liu was taken aback at first, then his chubby face turned pale instantly.

"Holy crap! The Tang Clan's ancestral tomb?!"

This Thunder Pearl was a burial item he "snatched" from the Tang Clan's ancestral tomb back then!

Showing off stolen burial goods in front of the victim's descendants is no different from flaunting a stolen wallet in front of the victim.

The sixth brother shuddered in fright and quickly stuffed the Thunder Pearl back deep inside his robes, muttering incantations:

"Forgive me, forgive me... Ancestors of the Tang Clan, please forgive me. This junior is keeping it for you temporarily..."

Seeing his cowardly appearance, Jiang Xiaochuan shook his head helplessly.

This fat guy is usually as shrewd as a monkey, but his IQ drops to zero when he's around Tang Ran. He's bound to make a fool of himself sooner or later.

"its not right!"

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Lao Liu suddenly leaned close to Jiang Xiaochuan, his eyes full of suspicion:

"How do you know so much about my fiancée? She must have come to Tenglong to see you, right? You two, could it be... something's going on?"

"To tell you the truth, she was sent to spy on me."

Jiang Xiaochuan pushed his face away and said irritably, "If you have the ability to make her stop staring at me and come home with you to be a wife and mother, I should thank you."

He deliberately avoided mentioning Yan Lü—if Lao Liu knew that, the entire martial arts world of the capital would know by tomorrow.

These words worked perfectly. The sixth brother immediately straightened his back and waved his hand dismissively:

"Hey! Fatty, I was just kidding! Do you think I wouldn't trust you?"

"...Besides, even if there really is something going on, how could my charm be inferior to yours?"

As they were talking, Tang Ran on the bed suddenly coughed and slowly opened her eyes.

Lao Liu panicked instantly, quickly straightened his wrinkled clothes, and smoothed his hair with his hands, trying to present his most energetic self.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

Seeing that Jiang Xiaochuan was still standing there, he quickly pushed Jiang Xiaochuan towards the door with his body, muttering in a low voice, "Can't you see my fiancée is awake? Don't be a third wheel here and delay our time to build our relationship!"

Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at him helplessly, then at Tang Ran who had just woken up, and reminded her, "You'd better watch yourself."

It's hard to imagine that Lao Liu would dare to say "you are my fiancée" to Tang Ran. Given Tang Ran's personality, wouldn't she beat this fat man to death on the spot and force him to close his account?

Giving a reminder is already more than enough, but then again, if Lao Liu really has the ability to subdue Tang Ran, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

Jiang Xiaochuan was about to walk out when Tang Ran's voice came from behind him: "Wait."

He turned around and saw that Tang Ran had already sat up, her gaze skipping over the pretentious Lao Liu next to her and landing on him.

Those cold eyes now held a hint of complex emotions.

Tang Ran pursed her lips, as if she had made a great decision, before softly uttering two words: "Thank you."

After saying that, she immediately closed her eyes and leaned back against the headboard, pretending to rest—getting her to say those two words was harder than getting Lao Liu to lose weight.

The sixth brother, who had been happily anticipating praise, was completely ignored, and his chubby face instantly fell into a bitter expression.

"Oh no... darling! It's me! I'm the one who carried you out of that wolf's den of the Murong family! I'm so tired from the journey, my arms are still trembling!"

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing the word "darling," Tang Ran abruptly opened her eyes, a chill flashing in her beautiful gaze, and her entire aura turned cold.

She was already fed up with Lao Liu's persistent pestering; if it weren't for the fact that he had actually helped her, she would have already taken action.

The sixth brother was so frightened by her imposing manner that he trembled and instantly cowered, stammering, "I...I..."

But the words were on the tip of her tongue when she remembered that Jiang Xiaochuan was still watching at the door, so she forced herself to continue, "Darling..."

shhhhhh!

Before she could finish speaking, three silver beams suddenly shot out from Tang Ran's fingertips, heading straight for Lao Liu's face!

Lao Liu had witnessed the power of Tang Ran's silver needles before and was prepared, but at such close range, the silver needles were moving so fast.

He could only awkwardly shrink back, almost hitting the foot of the bed. He barely managed to avoid it, and the silver needle stuck into the wall behind him with a "thud, thud, thud," its end still trembling slightly.

The sixth brother patted his chest in fright and muttered under his breath, "My goodness... that's too fierce..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of Tang Ran's fingertips already gripping the silver needles.

The two gleaming needles twirled between her fingers, clearly indicating that she was about to get serious.

Old Six was so frightened that his back was instantly covered in cold sweat. He scrambled backward, yelling, "Stop! Don't do it! I am the leader of the Spirit Stealing Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Ran's hand, which was holding the silver needle, suddenly stopped. Her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise and doubt as she looked Lao Liu up and down: "The Thief of the Spirit Gate?"

She frowned slightly, clearly not connecting the glib-tongued fat man in front of her with the sect that had interacted with the Tang Clan back then.

Seeing that she had stopped, Lao Liu thought to himself, "This is going to work!" He immediately got up from the ground, dusted off his clothes, and approached her with a grin, saying:

"Darling, now you know I wasn't just making things up, right? Back in the day, the Daoling Sect and your Tang Sect had some connections!"

He poured out his story from decades ago, recounting it all like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.

Tang Ran listened, her brows furrowing even more.

She did have a vague memory of that time, but after they parted ways, the Daoyuling Sect disappeared without a trace. She always thought that everyone in the sect was gone, so she didn't take it to heart anymore.

Now that such a "master" has suddenly appeared, she's finding it hard to bring herself to do it.

After all, the Lingmen Sect had done the Tang Clan a favor back then.

It's absolutely impossible for her to get involved with such a glib-tongued fat man who's always trying to take advantage of others.

"How can you prove you're a member of the Spirit Thief Sect?"

Tang Ran said coldly, still holding the silver needle in her fingertip, clearly still on guard.
