Chapter 666 A battle of wits and courage

When dealing with smart people, sometimes you can sense the hidden meaning even if they don’t say it.

As the food was served, Ran Yun, who had just finished washing up and still looked a little sleepy, slowly sat down at the table.

"You guys are coming... why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"I called you four or five times, but you didn't answer," Duan Heng explained as he used a serving chopstick to pick up some food for Ran Yun. "I was worried something might happen to you, so I came here... Besides, you gave me the key to your house yourself."

"You're very thoughtful. You made all my favorite dishes." Ran Yun looked at the extra dishes in the bowl and said with a smile, but when he thought of Fan Nuoxi's current situation, his eyes dimmed a little.

Putting down the dishes, he subconsciously ran straight to the bedroom. Looking at the fan still lying safely on the small bed, Ran Yun's mood suddenly calmed down a bit. He casually held it in his palm and turned around to see Duan Heng standing outside the bedroom at a loss.

"Um...if you have any trouble, you can tell me." Duan Heng tried hard to control his gaze from looking around Ran Yun's bedroom, and his tone was a little nervous.

"Nothing, I just came to get my phone and see what news there is." Ran Yun picked up the phone beside the bed, walked towards him, and prevaricated, "Okay, let's eat first."

Seeing that Ran Yun refused to say more, Duan Heng nodded. Throughout the meal, he kept looking at Ran Yun nervously.

After dinner, Duan Heng took the initiative to wash the dishes and changed the subject, "Xiao Yun, if you have any troubles, you can tell me. You don't have to hide it in your heart."

Previously, Xiaoyun would only keep silent about the matters concerning his master and his good friend who had disappeared, but now he is like this again. Could it be that this time it is related to them again?

If that's true, maybe...it makes sense.

"My company has a new business to discuss recently, and I may have to go on a business trip for a while, so..." Ran Yun lied.

"Business trip? How long will you be gone? Can I go with you?" Duan Heng paused while washing dishes, his tone full of reluctance and pleading.

I remember that she didn't like business trips before, and she wouldn't go on business trips by herself unless it was necessary. Why did she do that today?

Could it be that she knew the whereabouts of his master and his good friend and was going to go and find out?

"The return date is uncertain." Ran Yun lowered his eyes, looking at the spiritual ring on his hand, and already had a plan in his mind.

Duan Heng's eyes suddenly turned red, "But I'm worried about you."

Ran Yun was silent and didn't say anything.

Because she knew that under the current circumstances, she couldn't reveal it, otherwise Fan Nuoxi and the others would definitely be in more danger.

She currently has some magic weapons on her and she also knows martial arts, so protecting herself is not a problem.

But once other people are involved, the risk becomes greater.

Seeing that Ran Yun seemed to have made up his mind, Duan Heng retreated and said, "Then... when are you leaving? Can I take you there?"

"I'll leave soon." After saying this, Ran Yun went back to his room to pack his things.

Since we have to find a way to get the person out of the fan, it is better to do it sooner rather than later.

She looked at the weather today and saw that there was no sun, so she had to go somewhere else.

In fact, she didn't have to take anything, but in order to pretend, she packed a small box and put some things in it.

After Duan Heng washed the dishes, he waited outside Ran Yun's bedroom, never leaving. No one knew what he was thinking, but tears kept overflowing from the corners of his eyes.

The moment he saw Ran Yun carrying the suitcase out of the bedroom, Duan Heng finally couldn't help but hugged Ran Yun, "Xiao Yun, can I go on the business trip with you?"

"I promise to listen to you and not make you angry or sad... If I do these things, you can hit me and scold me."

"You can't just abandon the patients you admitted." Ran Yun hesitated as he pulled the suitcase.

Although this guy rarely sees patients since they disappeared, he will still personally perform some complicated operations when he is needed.

She didn't want Duan Heng to suffer with her.

"I...I can ask for leave..." Duan Heng did not let go of Ran Yun, and said stubbornly, "I'm worried about you, and I don't want to be separated from you."

Whether it was a real business trip or something else, he didn't want to endure the bitterness of separation.

Although... until now he has not completely entered Ran Yun's heart...

"Communication is so convenient nowadays. No matter where I go, you can still call me or video chat with me, right?" Ran Yun raised a hand and gently touched Duan Heng's head. "Besides, it's not like I won't be back."

"But making a phone call or video chatting can never be the same as being by your side." Duan Heng rubbed Ran Yun's face and said aggrievedly.

"If you don't let go, don't even think about entering my house again." Suddenly, Ran Yun let go of his luggage and took out the key from Duan Heng's pocket that he had just coaxed and persuaded Duan Heng to give him a few days ago.

Duan Heng felt even more wronged, and looked at Ran Yun with moist eyes, as if she was some unforgivable sinner.

Ran Yun looked away, put the key in his pocket, pushed him open, and walked towards the door of the villa.

Sigh... this clingy guy is really hard to coax, the best thing to do is to leave!

Duan Heng quickly caught up with him, wanting to say something but afraid that Ran Yun would be angry.

It wasn't until she locked the door and finished talking to her assistant that she dared to speak cautiously, "Xiao Yun, I was wrong. I really just wanted to spend more time with you. Please don't ignore me, okay?"

The fan that had been turned into a mobile phone pendant shook itself when it heard this, as if it was quite surprised by someone's expression.

Ran Yun noticed the movement of the fan and was delighted, but said, "I said I have something to do and I have to leave now. If there is anything else, we can talk about it later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he carried his luggage into the car, then entered the driver's seat, started the engine and prepared to leave.

Duan Heng chased after him, but before he could say anything, he saw the car leave like an arrow.

With a sigh in his heart, Duan Heng wiped his tears hastily, drove his own car and followed. While waiting for the traffic light, he called to ask for leave.

As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Her attitude today is so different from yesterday. Excluding other possibilities, this can only happen if it is related to Fan Nuoxi and the others.

And... it was the first time she suddenly touched his head so gently, it was so abnormal!

Before, whenever he wanted to get close to Ran Yun, he was basically tortured sweetly. How could it be like this now?

The only thing that could make her a little more gentle was that, apart from his master, he had never seen anyone else being treated like this. Even though he had been trying hard to pursue her recently, he had been "punished" a lot.

When he regained consciousness, he saw that the traffic had caused his car and Ran Yun's car to be separated by a long distance.

……

Next door to the city.

Ran Yun chose a hotel in a well-lit area and checked in.

As soon as I moved in, I heard the sound of someone unlocking the door next door.

Opening the phone, I saw that Duan Heng's location was right next to me. Ran Yun said, "..."

Sometimes this guy is too smart which is not a good thing!

After preparing himself mentally for a while, Ran Yun took out the compass and fan, recalling what spell Fan Nuoxi had said about how to start, but he had no idea, so he simply placed them in a sunny spot in the house, waiting for the fan to give him a hint.

The compass felt plenty of sunlight and jumped on the spot. After a while, the fan shone with golden light and circled around the compass a few times before stopping. The fan lay on the compass to bask in the sun, and the color of the compass was faintly emitting a jade-like glow under the sunlight.

If you look closely, you can see a formation faintly visible below the compass.

Ran Yun looked at these with amazement in his heart, and the corners of his mouth rose inexplicably, but when he thought of the special situation now, the corners of his mouth slowly flattened again.

At this time, Duan Heng sent her a message, "Xiaoyun, I was worried about you so I followed you. I'm living next door to you now. I hope you don't get angry with me. I'm sorry if I disturbed you."

Ran Yun looked at him and saw him send another cute, apologetic expression, and chuckled in his heart.

Even though this guy followed me without permission, he still knew to report it, which is pretty good.

After looking around the hotel and finding that there were no other cameras that shouldn't be there, he felt relieved. He then looked at the balconies and saw that they were not connected to each other. Ran Yun nodded slightly.

This hotel has good privacy, so you don't have to worry about the guy next door rushing over.
