Chapter 532 Xiaowu's Plans_1

The room was instantly packed with people.

Xu Ran lay on the bed, surrounded by Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and Xue Wu, who watched the horrifying wounds on Xu Ran's body with teardrops falling, especially scared by the dangerous experiences Xu Ran had endured in battle.

If Xu Ran died, they wouldn't want to live either.

The others from Tianshui College were also somewhat apprehensive and wanted to be closer to Xu Ran.

However, they knew their status was far from comparable to that of Shui Bing'er and her group, so they stood at a distance, watching over Xu Ran.

In their hearts, as long as Xu Ran was all right, they would be satisfied just catching a glimpse of him from afar.

Back at Tianshui College, they had been thinking about coming to see Xu Ran, but now that they were here, they didn't know what to say. After all, Xu Ran was their teacher, and there were no other relationships.

Just because Shui Bing'er and her friends had crossed that line with Xu Ran did not mean they could do the same. Their talents and looks were somewhat inferior in comparison.

"Alright, no more crying, I'm not dead. If you keep crying, I'll really get angry," Xu Ran coughed lightly. His room was large enough, but now it seemed not so spacious with all the women crowding around. After all, there were eleven people crammed into the bedroom, making it quite full.

But for Xu Ran, this was extremely pleasing to the eyes.

Whether it was Xiaowu, Zhu Qing, Rongrong, or Yan Yan, Lingling, and even Xue Wu, Bing'er, they could all be considered the most outstanding Heaven's Proud Daughters of the whole Continent. Although they had not yet graduated from college to make a name for themselves on the Continent, their stunning beauty was already beginning to shine through.

Their slightly green and well-developed appearances couldn't help but draw frequent sideways glances.

"Alright, no more tears. Xu Ran is fine."

Shui Bing'er wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. As the eldest sister of the Tian Shui Battle Team, her words naturally carried great weight. Instantly, the young girls of the Tian Shui Battle Team ceased their tears.

"Xiaowu, go arrange a few clean rooms for Bing'er and the others. They are also part of our Xu Sect," Xu Ran thought for a moment then said to Xiaowu.

Compared to others, Xiaowu and Zhu Qing had known him the longest and were the most tolerant of him. Even when Rongrong and the others felt jealous, they just pursed their lips and said nothing.

"Oh. Okay." Xiaowu, dressed in a pink long dress, looked casual yet elegant, with her legs wrapped in white stockings, her long hair tied in a scorpion-tail braid, her face strikingly beautiful, and she carried a hint of mature grace, standing out conspicuously.

After all, Xiaowu was a hundred-thousand-year soul beast in human form. In the original story, Xiaowu had purposely acted naive to conceal her identity and not to reveal herself too much. But after falling in love with Xu Ran, there was no need to hide anything by his side, so even though Xiaowu was young, she exuded a mature air.

However, her flat chest and baby-faced cheeks gave her an air of oddity, a mixture of maturity and innocence that was hard to describe. But one could not deny how enticing she was.

After all, she was the woman who made Tang San so madly in love, and she was growing more beautiful by the day.

"Xiaowu sister, sorry to trouble you." Before Shui Bing'er could speak, the lively Shui Yue'er had already run up to Xiaowu, grabbed her small hand, and blinked her spirited eyes, an image of pure innocence.

Ever since she entered the room, Shui Yue'er had been looking around. Despite her seemingly carefree demeanor, she was actually quite perceptive. Knowing Xu Ran's most beloved women in Tiandou City were Zhu Qing and Xiaowu, she naturally wanted to get along with them.

Since she could become one of Xu Ran's women, there must be no problem with her character, which meant all she needed was a bit thicker skin to quickly fit in with them.

"Yue'er, don't be rude," Bing'er pulled Yue'er aside, giving Xiaowu an apologetic look. With so many people squeezed into one room, they all felt somewhat awkward. Especially since they knew they came into Xu Ran's life later than the others, it meant they were essentially stepping into the relationship between Xiaowu, Zhu Qing, and Xu Ran.

In such a situation, if they couldn't get along with Xu Ran's earlier confidantes, their life would definitely be uncomfortable later on. With her personality, she was not good at dealing with strangers, especially when it came to emotional connections.

But as women who wanted to be with Xu Ran, this was a step they had to go through.

At this moment, Xue Wu's heart also tightened, beating wildly with cold sweat in her palms, even more nervous than Bing'er. This feeling of being scrutinized by others was incredibly uncomfortable for her.

However, no matter what, she would not leave Xu Ran. She was now completely Xu Ran's woman, both inside and out, even her spirit had Xu Ran's imprint all over it. Asking her to leave Xu Ran would be worse than killing her.

"Pfft, why are you sisters so nervous? Do you all think I'm some kind of tigress?" Xiaowu blinked playfully, full of vivacity. She was mad at Xu Ran but would definitely not take it out on Bing'er and the others.

More women are bound to be around Xu Ran in the future, and today's scene will undoubtedly recur, perhaps even more frequently. If she got angry every time, she would be driven to rage or even premature menopause.

Pretending not to be competitive, not to embarrass Xu Ran, that was true wisdom.

Hmph, if she caused Xu Ran to be unhappy and stop doting on her, that would truly be a loss. She was no fool; she wouldn't do such a thing.

The other women also understood this principle. Even if they felt some complaints in their hearts, the annoyance faded after a short while.

"Sister Bing'er, Sister Xue Wu, from now on we're all one family, no need to be so formal. We often heard that the women of Tianshui College are Heaven's Proud Daughters, and seeing you today proves it's true."

"We need to stand together in the future and ignore that pig Xu Ran. Otherwise, that scoundrel will bully us to death."

"..."

The women chattered away, complementing each other at first, but then slowly the conversation turned towards Xu Ran. If it weren't for Xu Ran's serious injuries, he would definitely have to give them a proper 'homework' session today.

Seeing this, Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Ran had underestimated the tolerance of Soul Land's women towards men's philandering, as having multiple wives and concubines was all too common in large forces. If their husbands were mediocrities, they naturally wouldn't want their other half to be too philandering. But the allure of being with Xu Ran was too strong; they were quite open-minded about his behavior.

Being with Xu Ran was already hard enough; they couldn't possibly ask for anything more. This was the current mindset of Xiaowu and the others.

It was precisely because of their high tolerance for Xu Ran that they could accept his intrusive, baffled actions. If it were in the original story, could Xiaowu allow Tang San to get away with anything he wanted? Not in a million years. Only Xu Ran could enjoy such privileges.
