Chapter 984 Xiao Yan's Thought, I'm the Protagonist_1

"You mean Xu Ran wants to help me recover my talent?" Xiao Yan asked excitedly.

"Yes," Xiao Xun'er nodded. How could she let anyone else touch her if it wasn't for her Brother Xiao Yan? Even Brother Xiao Yan hadn't had the chance to hold her like that.

"Hmph, that's not okay. Xu Ran is no good at all. The fact that he got together with Xiao Mei so quickly is enough to show his true character. Plus, he's already Xiao Mei's boyfriend and yet he dares to covet you. This proves he's nothing good. Stay away from him in the future," Xiao Yan said.

He thought Xu Ran was definitely a lecher.

Xu Ran's lustful gaze toward Xun Er was obvious at a glance.

Such a lecher!

Damn it, no matter who it is, anyone who covets his woman is no good.

"If I can recover, maybe I can get strong really quickly. In the fantasy novels I read in my past life, it always went like that. Endure a few years of beatings, and then there will be a super beautiful chick by my side to accompany me, and then I would embark on the road to becoming stronger, growing strong together with the beauty. Hehe, by then, I would be the protagonist..."

"And Xu Ran, this guy who covets Xun Er, is definitely the villain. Maybe he'll soon become a stepping stone for me to get stronger," Xiao Yan thought delightedly, suddenly in a great mood.

He, a transmigrator, Xiao Yan, hardened by trials, would embark on the path of the protagonist when his talent finally emerged.

She, Xun Er, had stayed by his side through thick and thin over the years, and now she had even caught the eyes of the villain. She's like the standard template for a heroine, plus Xun Er is so beautiful. Hehe, if he could be with her... If it weren't for the sake of maintaining a good image in front of Xun Er, he really wanted to expose his lecherous nature and then... with Xun Er.

As for Xu Ran? Appearing on the eve of his awakening, making moves on his woman, he was a classic villain template, waiting for the next time Xu Ran made a move on Xun Er, so he could astonish everyone, move Xun Er, and make her unable to resist him.

"In my experience, it's almost a sure thing. It seems that I, Xiao Yan, am destined to rise," Xiao Yan puffed out his chest, boasting a bit.

Once he became strong, he too wanted to show off and dazzle everyone else.

"Brother Xiao Yan, what are you talking about?" Xiao Xun'er looked at Xiao Yan with confusion.

"It's nothing. Don't ever associate with Xu Ran again in the future. Xu Ran is just a lecher, a shameless and lascivious man, you mustn't fall for his tricks," Xiao Yan warned.

Although he was still annoyed, he felt much better.

As long as Xun Er was still by his side, nothing else mattered to him.

How could he possibly give up Xun Er? She was so pretty, with a slender waist, curvy figure, and such a gentle and quiet demeanor.

"Understood," Xiao Xun'er nodded lightly, indicating that she had taken note.

...

For three days, Xu Ran roamed around Wu Tan City, flaunting his love with Xiao Mei and blinding everyone with their display. Especially Xiao Mei's active and compliant demeanor that made all the lechers lose their composure.

A beautiful girl, so compliant and gentle – wouldn't that mean she would do anything?

Everyone's thoughts drifted, and they longed to put themselves in Xu Ran's place, and then...

But such thoughts were destined never to come true.

Xiao Zhan and the others also approached Xiao Mei, hoping she would develop a good relationship with Xu Ran, as her talent had given her a high status within the family.

On this day, Xu Ran embraced Xiao Mei from behind, the two of them showing off their love.

And Xiao Xun'er soon approached them.

"You two, shameless!" Xiao Xun'er, dressed in a purple dress, had a hint of panic in her beautiful eyes.

She looked at Xu Ran and Xiao Mei tugging and pulling at each other with a hint of panic, her pretty face blushing slightly.

She hadn't expected that right in the courtyard, Xu Ran and Xiao Mei would dare to be so intimate; it was simply shameless.

Even if they wanted to do something, couldn't they go inside their own room?

"Lustful scoundrel!"

In Xiao Xun'er's heart, Xu Ran had completely become a lustful scoundrel.

"Xiao Xun'er, why are you here? Who are you calling shameless?" Xiao Mei, held in Xu Ran's arms, also blushed as she looked at Xiao Xun'er. Luckily, Xu Ran was only holding her and hadn't done anything too excessive, otherwise, she feared she might have died of shame.

"Of course it's you!" Ever since Xiao Mei left Xiao Yan's side, Xiao Xun'er had taken a dislike to her. And now she was even more upset.

Such a woman, only chasing after the strong, how could she understand what love is?

Probably Xu Ran was just playing with her too, not truly taking her to heart.

"Hmph. I follow my Brother Xu Ran, what's it to you? Brother Xu Ran pampers me so much, I eat very well every day," Xiao Mei said proudly.

These days, Xu Ran had been constantly sweet with her, and she, fearing that Xu Ran would get bored, changed up her attire every day to please him.

Gradually, she found herself really falling for such a man with unparalleled talent, overflowing wit, and a free-spirited demeanor, not just for the benefits he brought her but also because of a genuine liking.

A man like this, she could possibly meet only once in her life, and she must grasp this opportunity well.

"Hmph. Who cares about your sordid affairs?" Xiao Xun'er said indifferently, her beautiful brows slightly furrowed.

"You go down first. I have something to talk about with Xun Er," Xu Ran said, holding onto Xiao Mei gently.

"I won't accept that, Brother Xu Ran, you're playing favorites," Xiao Mei looked at Xu Ran with a grievance but still obediently followed his words and left, very docile.

These days, Xu Ran had grown accustomed to Xiao Mei's obedient and well-behaved manner.

Although the original Xiao Mei wasn't particularly outstanding, she seemed quite good by his side.

Since he had come, the original story would also change.

The girls who lacked luster before would also bloom into their true colors.

"Xun Er, why did you come to find me? Could it be that you missed me?" Xu Ran looked over Xiao Xun'er's exquisite body with a smile. Xun Er was truly beautiful, even when she was angry, there was a unique charm to her.

"Hmph, I came to remind you about the elixirs you promised to make," Xiao Xun'er retorted with an annoyed snort.

"You've been with Xiao Mei these days!..." Xiao Xun'er said through clenched teeth, her bosom heaving violently. Since Xu Ran had promised to perform alchemy, she had asked Ling Ying to keep an eye on Xu Ran, but what had she seen instead? It was all such a mess! She was simply speechless!

"What about Mei'er and me?" Xu Ran asked leisurely, reclining in a chair.

"Hmph. You know exactly what's in your heart!" Xiao Xun'er retorted with a cold snort, unable to voice the rest of her thoughts.

"Mei'er and I are a couple. Is it wrong for us to do what couples usually do?" Xu Ran spread his hands, seeing nothing unusual in this from his perspective.

"Hmph. I don't care about any of that. I want the elixirs. You said you'd be done in two days, so why didn't you deliver them to Brother Xiao Yan yesterday?" Xiao Xun'er's pretty face was full of frost as she looked at Xu Ran with malice in her eyes.
