Chapter 533: This Operation Shouldn't Be Difficult, Right?_1

The time passed extremely swiftly, and the girls quickly hit it off and became familiar with each other.

Although Xiaowu and the others had mostly different personalities, they were kind-hearted. Coupled with the fact they were all genius girls who appreciated each other, once they decided to get along well, there were no more conflicts.

Generally speaking, for a man who starts a "Harem," going through a battlefield of Asuras is almost inevitable.

But Xu Ran's case was different.

Because Xu Ran was already very familiar with the personalities of these girls in the original story, a group of good-hearted people together, all fond of Xu Ran, naturally wouldn't create any ugly disputes when weighing the pros and cons.

"Hehe, Brother Xu Ran, we're going to go first then. We'll come to see you after we get settled." Shui Yue'er blinked her expressive large eyes, feeling relieved with the goodwill coming from Xiaowu and the others, and her mood lightened. Plus, they were reassured seeing that Xu Ran's injuries were not particularly serious or life-threatening.

Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu were even more pleasantly surprised. They had been prepared to be isolated, but such a change made them ecstatic. This meant that they could also now be Xu Ran's women openly and uprightly, just like Xiaowu and the others, and be with Xu Ran together. How could this not excite them?

"Xu Ran, we're leaving first," said Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu with a lingering look at Xu Ran, and then they left with Xiaowu and the others. Zhu Qing, Rongrong and the others followed them, introducing to Shui Bing'er and the others the Shrek Academy, the Xu Sect, and some matters about Xu Ran.

The room returned to silence.

Xu Ran himself was unfazed, while Bi Bidong looked on in surprise.

She initially thought it would be troublesome for Xu Ran to handle these matters, but, in reality, Xu Ran hardly said anything, yet they seemed to be in harmony, which made her doubt what she was seeing.

Was all this real?

These girls were clearly Heaven's Proud Daughters, who should be arrogant and lofty, so why were they so tolerant of Xu Ran's philandering, even indulgent?

She didn't understand!

The key point was that Xue'er, as the Young Master of the Spirit Hall, and nominally the Crown Princess of the Tiandou Empire, was well-informed. She should have a thorough understanding of Xu Ran's philandering, so why did even Xue'er accept Xu Ran's philandering? What was with this world?

Had Xu Ran given them some kind of love potion?

"Xu Ran, you wouldn't have done something to them, would you?" Bi Bidong looked at Xu Ran suspiciously. She had been watching him these past days, and although Xu Ran was shameless, he shouldn't be that bad.

"What are you thinking? Am I that kind of person?"

"Do you even understand what love is?" Xu Ran curled his lip.

"Love?" Bi Bidong was taken aback, her expression dazed.

"To love someone is to give your all for them. When they're happy, you're happy; when they're angry, you're angry. As long as they are happy, you will be happy. That is love. Xiaowu and I came together because of love, not because I'm truly philandering. Everything is just going with the flow. By the way, do you think you've ever had love before?"

"Is this what love is?" Bi Bidong's delicate body trembled slightly, finding Xu Ran's words to make a lot of sense, yet somewhat disbelieving. If this was what love was, then what were those things she had before?

Was her love for Yu Xiaogang genuine? Or was it an obsession?

In her youth, it was rebellion that drew Xiaowu to Yu Xiaogang. As she grew older, it was because of an obsession... But what was that love, really...

In an instant, Bi Bidong felt as if she was losing something, yet at the same time, as though she had gained something.

She couldn't believe that she had never truly loved before, how tragic that would be.

A smile played on Xu Ran's lips; he merely wanted to deliberately mislead Bi Bidong.

Bi Bidong certainly had feelings for Yu Xiaogang, or she wouldn't have fallen to such a state because of him. However, it was unknown how much of that feeling was actual love, as the rebellion of her girlhood, along with the obsession that followed after being forced to break up, probably dominated her emotions towards Yu Xiaogang.

The reason Bi Bidong liked Yu Xiaogang during her girlhood might have been because of his mediocrity. The Spirit Hall was filled with geniuses, and even she herself was an exceptional talent. Ordinary talents couldn't attract her interest, even less so than Yu Xiaogang, who managed to catch her attention.

Furthermore, Yu Xiaogang was not from the Spirit Hall, which made Bi Bidong, who lived her whole life in the Spirit Hall yearning for the outside world, favor him even more. It seemed that being with Yu Xiaogang was her way of rebelling against the life the Spirit Hall had planned for her.

Under such rebellious sentiment, Yu Xiaogang, being cunning and full of schemes, naturally succeeded in being with Bi Bidong.

This is just like the good girl who inexplicably likes the bad boy who's neither nice nor honest; the principle is the same.

If it hadn't been for the mess caused by Qian Xun Ji, Bi Bidong might have moved past her rebellious years and refocused her attention elsewhere, considering that she might have just been playing around from the start.

But the subsequent oppression by Qian Xun Ji and others, along with the years of emotional gloom, created a different kind of emotion in Bi Bidong towards Yu Xiaogang. For her, being with him seemed like a victory in life, a sign that she had successfully taken control, rather than being cornered into a life dictated by others, pressured by Qian Xun Ji's rules.

The most important thing about flirting is the psychological study and analysis, and this was what Xu Ran excelled at.

However...

"By the way, System Miss, can Bi Bidong's... issue be resolved?" Xu Ran couldn't help but ask.

Although the present Bi Bidong was also beautiful, with a lingering charm, that kind of full-bodied mature allure wasn't something ordinary girls possessed.

But it was like a perfect jade with a noticeable blemish that left Xu Ran somewhat displeased.

It was just too bad that he arrived in Soul Land several years too late; those established facts had already happened, beyond his ability to change. Otherwise, he would never have allowed someone as beautiful and perfect as Bi Bidong to suffer such indignity.

"Of course it can be resolved. The System is omnipotent. Don't worry, 'Host' brother. I would never allow an unclean woman to approach you. But the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed; you'll know the specifics when the time comes," System Miss winked. She too was a stickler for cleanliness, and she would never let any unclean women near Xu Ran.

Otherwise, if Bi Bidong contracted that kind of disease, one person's illness could spell disaster for the whole family, which would be too dreadful.

"That's good," Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. He empathized with Bi Bidong, but if that aspect remained unresolved, he would have reservations. Although Xu Ran liked to play the role of the guy next door, he was interested in someone else's fiancée, not someone else's wife. He was interested in virgins, not unclean people.

System Miss, who could even create a Kylin, Ancestral Dragon, and a Three-legged Golden Crow, should find this matter not too difficult; the only question was how she would go about it, something to look forward to.
