Chapter 371 Rumors
Chapter 371 Rumors
The sudden chill made him shiver, and then his hand grabbed her flailing ankle.
"Don't move, um... do you know where you kicked?"
Zhongli Yueluo was taken aback: "Calves?"
Yan Ruoyu lifted the corner of her blanket: "Do you want to come over?"
There was no hint of disrespect in his eyes, nor any playful expression.
Zhongli Yueluo moved her hand sideways to the side and placed it under his armpit, then wrapped her arms around his back.
His bed was indeed steaming hot, while her own bed was like an ice cave.
Her choice was right; I should still hold her while she sleeps at night.
"Ruoyu, don't push me. It's cold and drafty next to me."
"You're holding me too tight. Why don't you feel inside and see if there's still room?"
Yan Ruoyu felt somewhat helpless. He turned around and pulled the corner of the blanket to cover his back. He had to keep his magic power constantly surrounding the two of them.
Otherwise, given the speed at which Zhongli Yueluo's cold aura absorbed his heat, the two of them would turn into popsicles in no time.
This can be considered a form of indirect cultivation for him.
"Okay, okay, I'll move over a bit, come over here."
Although Zhongli Yueluo said that, her hands and feet did not move away from Yan Ruoyu at all; she just moved her buttocks to the side.
"Could you loosen it a little? I just need to tie a blanket around my neck."
It took a lot of effort to push Zhongli Yueluo to the side a little, and she looked very unwilling.
He poked his head out from under the covers, pouted, and pressed his icy hand against Yan Ruoyu's face, laughing heartily.
The clear laughter carried outside the courtyard, and everyone could hear it.
Yan Ruoyu reached out and covered her mouth, without any intention of blaming her.
She said softly, "You're laughing so loudly, everyone outside can hear you. I don't want them to misunderstand anything."
"Just a smile is enough to make them misunderstand, which shows how filthy the hearts of these adults are."
Zhongli Yueluo gently moved his hand away, then rested her head against her shoulder. It felt so warm!
Yan Ruoyu could only feel the coldness on her cheeks and the cold air she was breathing.
I gently patted her back and gradually felt her body temperature rise.
It seems she only feels warmer when she's with him.
Zhongli Yueluo closed her eyes and quickly calmed her breathing. Yan Ruoyu's patting of her back also slowed down.
A person emerged from the shadows. Yan Ruoyu didn't speak, but gave a few instructions.
Until the next morning dawn, Zhongli Yuelu stretched and yawned, having slept well.
She jumped out of bed, washed up, and spun around to put on her sweater.
She would probably be seen as an oddball by others, who don't need to dress up.
What's more, in this warm spring weather, she was dressed as if it were the dead of winter.
He silently cursed Suicune again in his heart.
Yan Ruoyu got up, and the fatigue on her face had lessened.
He discovered that although the coldness emanating from Zhongli Yueluo was frigid, it actually complemented the magic he practiced.
Resisting it in his sleep allows his spiritual sea to absorb the cold energy more stably, thus converting it into his own magical power.
"If you go out today, a barrage of rumors will come your way. Are you prepared?"
"If I hadn't been mentally prepared, I wouldn't have said those things to you yesterday."
Then she moved her fingertip closer and poked his cheek: "No one should be watching us when we're sleeping, right?"
The implication was that she knew the Shadow Guards had come last night, but Yan Ruoyu shook her head.
"Then next time I'll try to finish it during the day, or at least do it behind your back?"
"No need, I know they mean you no harm."
I pushed open the door, a gust of wind blew in, and I sighed.
Yan Ruoyu originally wanted to travel with her, but she refused, and now they are about to become adversaries.
He was all smiles at first, but after turning a few corners, his expression suddenly turned cold.
Just then, she saw two people whispering in the distance. She didn't recognize them, but she knew they were talking about her.
He deliberately rolled up his sleeves, revealing the purplish-blue bruises from the beating.
"Wow, did you hear? It turns out there's something fishy about Yue Luo getting into school as Ruoyu's fiancée."
"Yes, yes, I heard about it too. I overheard a conversation last night, but I don't know who it was."
While speaking, her eyes kept glancing at Zhongli Yueluo, but she didn't dare to look directly at her, so she could only turn her back and mutter to herself.
"I heard she used some kind of forbidden technique. How dare she stay in this academy?"
"I knew it! How could Young Master Ruoyu have taken a liking to this woman of unknown origin?"
Such sounds could be heard all the way, whispering and murmuring.
But Zhongli Yueluo held her head high and greeted them with a smile.
Out of politeness and because they had no evidence, they had no choice but to smile and return her a polite response.
Zhongli Yueluo could only admire Yan Ruoyu's intelligence network for its speed; overnight, everyone in every nook and cranny knew about it.
Before even entering the academy, Chang Yu Muling looked extremely anxious, as if she were searching for something.
Finally seeing Zhongli Yueluo's figure, he rushed forward, not caring whether her body was cold and hurting him.
He grabbed her wrist through her clothes: "Yueluo! Don't listen to those people's nonsense!"
Zhongli Yuelu twisted her wrist and took a step back: "What did you say? You seem so anxious, what serious thing has happened?"
Seeing that Zhongli Yueluo's expression did not change, could it be that she did not hear those rumors along the way?
"They're all talking about you, and I can't argue with them! It's infuriating!"
His face was full of anger; he stomped his feet and pounded his chest, as if the rumors had severely damaged him.
"It's fine, let them say what they want, it won't hurt me anyway."
Zhongli Yueluo walked alongside him, while Changyu Muling clutched a handkerchief in her hand, thinking that she might cry if she saw Zhongli Yueluo.
Unexpectedly, she remained calm and acted as if she hadn't heard anything at all.
"Yeah, anyway, what they're saying isn't true."
Chang Yu Muling felt her hand getting a little cold, so she quickly let go.
Perhaps it was the jealousy between women that came from the other ladies, who saw the two of them being so intimate.
Then, thinking about the rumors she had heard, she felt that the rumors must be true, otherwise why would those legitimate sons always be surrounding her?
"He's so shameless. It's not enough to seduce Young Master Ruoyu, he also has to seduce other young masters from noble families."
"I heard that Young Master Ruoyu doesn't like her at all."
Zhongli Yueluo looked around. Now that they were talking about Yan Ruoyu, it was time for this main character to appear.
They need to make a scene in front of everyone to lure out the person they want to hook.
Sure enough, Yan Ruoyu's deputy walked out from the other side with a cold expression.
Zhongli Yueluo smiled slightly, still perfectly in sync with him.
