LGSG Chapter 26
by Volare“I, I, I… you, you, you…”
Xia Ran’s face was completely flushed.
It was the first time his emotions had fluctuated so much.
He was purely frightened by the boy.
“Can you take it off?” Xia Ran asked.
Boy: “No.”
Fifteen years old was exactly the age of being mischievous.
Especially Xie He, who was naturally a gloomy character.
Xia Ran: “…”
A little Xia lost his dream.
The soul fragment trembled violently.
It had received a warning from the main body.
Boy Xie He: “…”
Sigh. He was scolded.
He said seriously, “It can also be taken down.”
Xia Ran: “Then I’ll just…”
Boy: “Xie He can untie it. I can’t.”
Xia Ran: “…”
Xia Ran was really a little angry.
He said righteously, “This is repaying kindness with enmity.”
Boy: “Mmm.”
He didn’t even know how to scold someone.
How cute.
Xia Ran: “.”
Although the boy in front of him accepted it readily, why did he still feel a sense of powerlessness like punching cotton!
Boy: “I’m very sorry. I’ll follow you to offer thorns and apologize.”
Xia Ran: ‘That’s more like it!’
The two walked to the entrance of the storage room.
Xia Ran looked at the closed door and said, “I was wondering why the door wouldn’t open. You came in after me, right?”
Xia Ran had a good temper and wouldn’t really get angry.
But once his bottom line was touched, Xia Ran wouldn’t allow any room for negotiation.
He would just punch them directly.
Boy Xie He: “…”
“If I said I didn’t close it,” he said, “would you believe me?”
Xia Ran held up the lamp and walked to the door.
“Then who closed it?”
Boy: “.”
The dungeon world was nothing more than haunted by lonely souls, demons, and monsters.
He frowned.
But so far, he hadn’t felt any dangerous aura.
Although it was only a soul fragment, even a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, and the young Xie He was much stronger than ordinary ghosts and monsters.
It should be easy to help Xia Ran escape danger.
“Xiao Xie, can I call you that?” Xia Ran asked.
Boy: “…Why Xiao Xie?”
Xia Ran: “Because Mr. Xie is big.”
Little Xie: “…”
Little Xie: “Don’t play with ellipses with such an innocent face.”
Little Xie seemed to accept the nickname quite normally.
Mainly because he had never told Xia Ran his real name. But he was clearly closely related to the Xie family. Judging by his face alone, his surname was definitely Xie.
So Xia Ran simply called him that.
Xia Ran pushed the door and exclaimed, “It seems to be locked from the outside.”
Little Xie: “Why don’t we…”
Before he could finish, Xia Ran withdrew his hand. He took a few steps back, took a few running steps, and slammed into the storage room door.
With a loud bang, it was deafening.
Little Xie originally wanted to say that Xia Ran couldn’t open the iron door by himself. He could try picking the lock.
He didn’t expect Xia Ran to kick it directly.
What he didn’t expect even more was that the iron door buzzed.
Then, it fell neatly to the outside.
Xia Ran turned his head: “Little Xie, necessity knows no law, right?”
Little Xie: “…”
So he was a witness to an unexpected risk.
Little Xie knew that Xia Ran was strong.
But the other party looked beautiful and slender, which always made Little Xie feel a strange desire to protect him.
How laughable.
He didn’t need protection at all.
What kind of beautiful canary could kick down an iron door with one foot?!
Fortunately, this time the iron door didn’t fly out eight miles like him because it was too heavy.
The iron door just slammed on the ground.
Xia Ran was puzzled: “Why does it feel like the sound is a bit off?”
Xie He noticed the bride ghost under the iron door, who had been crushed from a solid body into a paper person.
It should be the bride ghost who escaped from Fenghuang Village when it was sealed up and sneaked into Sui Yuan Ju.
She shouldn’t have provoked anyone else.
But she provoked Xia Ran.
Little Xie calmly stepped on the iron door: “It’s your illusion.”
Xia Ran: “Is it?”
Xia Ran also stood on it.
The bride ghost crushed under the door: “…”
She was honest and begged to be let go.
Xia Ran: “What should we do with this door?”
Little Xie: “Someone will come to fix it.”
Xia Ran said “Oh” and left with Little Xie, carrying the lamp.
A paper ghost slowly squeezed out from under the iron door.
A gust of wind blew past, and she went to heaven miserably.
The moon was already completely hanging in the sky.
But tonight, the moon and stars were sparse, and the fog in the bamboo forest was relatively thin.
Now that Xia Ran had some free time, he was able to analyze the things he hadn’t figured out just now.
The gift Mr. Xie asked him to give to his wife.
Could it be that… Mr. Xie was planning to propose?
But Mr. Xie was with him all day, and he hadn’t seen Mr. Xie have any good relationships with men?
So who was he going to marry TAT!
The more Xia Ran thought about it, the sadder he became.
Damn it, could it be that he was actually Mr. Xie’s hardcore solo stan?
Why did he feel so uncomfortable at the thought of Mr. Xie getting married soon!
Xia Ran finally couldn’t hold back: “Who is Mr. Xie going to marry?”
Little Xie: “Whoever wears it is who he’s marrying.”
Xia Ran: “…”
That was as good as saying nothing.
Xia Ran was unhappy.
Suddenly, a figure jumped out of the bushes next to him.
“What, I knew it! There’s no smoke without fire. All the rumors can’t be groundless! Hahaha,” the shadow that came out was Xie Youdao. He asked, “I triggered the keyword, are you getting married?”
Xia Ran: “…”
Wait, who was getting married?
Xie Youdao: “Daughter-in-law, don’t be confused. You’re even wearing my son’s marriage fund. Is he finally willing to give you a title?”
Little Xie: “…”
Little Xie looked at Xie Qiao, who came out slowly next to him: “Why don’t you leash your dog when you walk it?”
It was the first time Xie Qiao had seen the second soul fragment of her brother.
She raised her eyebrows in surprise.
This taste was right.
The Xie He of that year had this kind of black humor that could choke people to death with a single sentence.
Xie Youdao was furious: “How dare you… Wait, who are you?”
Xie Qiao explained calmly from the side: “After I threaded the puppet silk into Father’s body, his behavior is controllable, but the stimulation was too severe at the time, and he doesn’t seem to remember what happened that day.”
There was still a gap between the young Xie He and the adult version.
Now that Xie Youdao was crazy, he obviously hadn’t recognized that this was just a fragment of Xie He’s main body.
Little Xie: “I’m the second child.”
Xie Youdao beamed with joy.
He took Xia Ran’s hand: “I knew my daughter-in-law was so strong, she must be good at giving birth!”
Xia Ran: “I…”
That’s really not it!
But he remembered that he had just finished pretending to be a couple with Xie He, and refusing to admit it at this time would inevitably be suspected of hypocrisy.
Xia Ran didn’t know that Xie He had already shown his true colors in front of Xie Youdao.
He still remembered playing the character, so he couldn’t refuse rashly.
He had an increasingly strong illusion.
It was as if he was really Mr. Xie’s male wife.
A layer of coolness covered the back of his hand.
Xia Ran’s layer of romantic fantasy shattered like a bubble in the air.
Little Xie separated Xie Youdao and Xia Ran.
“You’ve been holding it for too long.”
Xie Youdao: “…”
He inexplicably felt displeasure like his own son.
Xie Qiao apologized to Xie He: “I’ll definitely leash the puppet silk next time.”
Little Xie: “Mmm.”
Xia Ran was held by Little Xie’s hand and felt that his palm was full of mint-like coolness.
He was a little puzzled, this was too much like Mr. Xie.
Even Xie Qiao’s attitude was very subtle.
She seemed… both familiar and unfamiliar with Little Xie.
This feeling was also very similar to Mr. Xie’s attitude towards his sister.
Xia Ran frowned.
Something was wrong.
What exactly was Little Xie’s identity?
If he was simply Mr. Xie’s brother.
No matter how bad the relationship between the two was, it should be like Xie Qiao’s.
Not so… evasive?
The more impossible it was, the more likely it was to become an unbelievable truth.
Xia Ran was too focused on thinking.
It wasn’t until Little Xie let go of his hand that he realized Xie Qiao and Xie Youdao had already left.
Xia Ran: “…”
Should he ask?
Should he ask Little Xie if he was Xie He?
Just as Xia Ran was hesitating, Little Xie opened his mouth.
He was wearing a mask, so his specific expression couldn’t be seen.
Only the voice was heard, as clear as moonlight.
“You’ve been struggling all the way, who Mr. Xie wants to give this thing to. Why didn’t you ever think of yourself?”
It was as if the evening breeze had brushed against his neck.
Xia Ran’s heart was suddenly fluttered by a butterfly.
