Chapter 79: Chapter 77: Where Do You Live and Have You Ever Been Married?
Suddenly startled by the words, Yun Ran instinctively lowered her head to look at herself.
Then she blinked, looked up at Shen Weixi, "You’re saying Nangong Mo... he’s into men? This, this can’t be true, right?"
"Why not? I’m telling you, this isn’t just a baseless rumor."
Seeing Shen Weixi’s expression, Yun Ran realized, oh, this is serious!
"Does he have a lover? Is there solid evidence?"
Shen Weixi hooked her arm around her shoulder, leaned toward her ear, and loudly whispered:
"I heard that he and that military doctor, their relationship is anything but ordinary! They’re often inseparable, not just dining together but also sleeping together!"
Yun Ran: "Sleeping together??! Has anyone seen it with their own eyes?"
"Although no one has witnessed it firsthand, it’s widely known that after several incidents of unauthorized entries, King Qin forbade anyone from stepping foot into his sleeping quarters. But, people have seen that military doctor secretly entering King Qin’s quarters at night and not leaving until dawn."
"Could it be that Nangong Mo was ill or injured, and it was just a medical visit?"
"If it was just a medical visit, it wouldn’t have to be at night, right?"
"Well..."
"Moreover, every time that doctor goes in, the area within a 500-meter radius of the tent is off-limits to anyone! Does that sound normal to you?"
Yun Ran: "..."
It does sound a bit odd, but...
"Perhaps they were discussing some military secrets?"
"Discussing on the bed, in total darkness?"
"..."
Yun Ran tugged at her stiff mouth, "Do you know the name of that military doctor?"
"It seems to be... let me think... right, Mu Nanfeng! That’s the name!"
Yun Ran: "???"
It was as if a thunderclap sounded above her head; Yun Ran doubted her ears.
"Who did you say he was?!"
"Mu Nanfeng."
"..."
No... it must just be a person with the same name!
"Which Mu Nanfeng? What does he look like? How old is he? How tall is he? Where does he live, and is he married? What color clothes does he like to wear? Does he have any peculiar hobbies?"
Yun Ran bombarded Shen Weixi with a torrent of questions, leaving her slightly dazed.
For a moment, it was unclear whether her reaction was sadness, shock, anger, excitement, or what.
After a while, Shen Weixi found her voice:
"Yue’er, are you planning to kill the military doctor to silence him? Or have you taken a fancy to him?"
"But you haven’t even met him!"
"Yet your reaction... do you know him from before?"
Yun Ran: "...No, I don’t know him."
[Oh my! I got so emotional I couldn’t control myself!]
[But, this feeling really is like being struck by lightning!]
Shen Weixi looked at her suspiciously, "Then why did you react that way just now..."
"I was just too shocked! I never expected Nangong Mo to not be into beauties but into men instead! What was he thinking?"
"No idea."
Shen Weixi shook her head honestly, "Now that you know he has a penchant for men, do you want to run away with me?"
After the question, with no response, Shen Weixi looked up in confusion to see Yun Ran against the wall, her small hand feeling around its surface, occasionally pressing her ear to it.
Shen Weixi was a bit flabbergasted, "Yue’er, what are you doing?"
Yun Ran furrowed her graceful brows, puzzled, "Strange, I keep feeling a chilly air seeping through this wall..."
The feeling was as if a ghostly figure was hovering behind the wall, watching their room with deep resentment, continuously emitting an eerie chill.
