Chapter 18: Be Good, Tell Me Your Name

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

For the first time, Yun Ran decided it wouldn’t be easy to feign unconsciousness. But how would she explain her lechery when she woke up?

Forget it, I can’t afford to lose face… It’s just a pinch! So what? At most, I’ll find a chance to pinch him back in the future.

As she thought about it, she fell asleep unknowingly.

Nangong Mo shook his head helplessly as he listened to the girl’s shallow breathing. Had she actually fallen asleep? That wretched girl was really not wary at all!

Was she certain that he was crippled and had a hidden illness that he couldn’t do anything to her?

“Hey, wake up.”

Nangong Mo reached out and gently patted the girl’s face. The sleeping girl curled her lips in dissatisfaction. “Oh, don’t be noisy.”

“What’s your name?”

“Well… I don’t know.”

The girl’s voice was soft and coquettish; she was more charming than when she was awake.

Nangong Mo smiled, his low and pleasant voice filled with infinite gentleness and coaxing.

“Be a good girl and tell me your name. I’ll give you a thousand taels of silver, okay?”

“Yes? Silver?”

“Yes, a lot of silver. It’s all yours.”

“Well… Yun… Ran…”

Yun Ran, eh?

The man raised his eyebrows, and a faint smile appeared in his deep eyes. Looking at the girl’s quiet and obedient sleeping face, the corners of his mouth curled up.

What a money-grubber. She didn’t even know she’d sold herself.

Holding the girl’s slender waist tightly, Nangong Mo turned around and stood up.

Looking at the petite one in his arms, a faint ripple appeared in his heart.

When she was awake, she was like a wild cat baring her fangs and brandishing her claws. He did not expect her to be so obedient and cute after falling asleep.

It was unknown what kind of dream Yun Ran had, but she actually laughed out loud. Her little face nuzzled against Nangong Mo’s chest for a while before she found a comfortable spot and fell asleep again.

Nangong Mo was speechless.

How was she obedient? She was clearly sleeping and still not behaving.

The next day, Yun Ran found herself waking up in bed. There was no sign of Nangong Mo in the room, nor were there the two lifelike ghosts.

Everything that had happened last night seemed like a dream.

Yet it was so real.

“After I fell asleep last night…”

How did she get up? And how did she get back into bed?

Did someone come in to help?

Wouldn’t that person have seen her in a state of undress?

Yun Ran put a hand to her forehead and let out a long sigh. “Isn’t it too embarrassing?”

“Princess Consort, are you awake? Today is the day of your homecoming. His Highness said not to miss the time.”

When Yun Ran packed up and went out, she was shocked to see the dazzling array of gift boxes that filled most of the courtyard.

“T-these are all for… Lord Lin?”

“Yes, Consort. These are the homecoming gifts the Prince prepared for you. Here’s the list. Please take a look.”

After Yun Ran took the list and quickly scanned it, she almost lost her balance.

Nangong Mo, that wastrel!

He didn’t even let go of her thousand taels, yet he’s giving away a million taels without even blinking?!

Even a big family can’t squander like this! What he squandered was her future money!

The key was that members of the Lin family were scoundrels. Were they worthy?

“Where is the Prince?”

“His Highness says he was hit in the head by a wildcat last night and is now catching up on his sleep.”

Yun Ran was miffed.

You’re the wildcat! Your whole family is made up of cats!

“Alright, get ready to leave.”

She still had something to do at the Minister’s Mansion today. It was good that Nangong Mo was not around, lest it affected her performance.
