Chapter 659: Chapter 659: Final Right of Interpretation Belongs to Her

The call was quickly connected, and Yun Ran could even hear Taoist Xia’s anxious voice: "Don’t worry, I will definitely find a way to heal your injury!"

Taoist Xia thought Yun Ran called to stop him, so he naturally panicked.

He and Yun Ran were as close as life and death siblings, how could he just watch Yun Ran suffer without helping?

Yun Ran: ...

She really didn’t expect that Taoist Xia would be such a warm-hearted person.

After pausing for a moment, she finally asked, "I just wanted to ask about the invitation to the networking event you brought."

Now it was Taoist Xia’s turn to be speechless; he had mentally prepared a whole melodrama in his head.

For example, Yun Ran firmly refusing his help, while he, going above and beyond for the sake of their bond, insisted on helping no matter what.

And this was it? Taoist Xia inexplicably felt disappointed.

Luckily, Yun Ran didn’t know what was going on in Taoist Xia’s mind at the moment, otherwise she would definitely have commented on the number of drama kings these days.

Taoist Xia only felt a slight twinge of disappointment, but quickly shifted back to answering Yun Ran’s question.

"Oh, that thing, it’s not that important. It’s just a regular annual activity for the Xuan Sect forces in Huannan.

I thought since you’re already here, you might as well go to meet and mingle with people in the circle, exchange ideas and all, but I didn’t expect you to come here to recuperate..."

Taoist Xia initially intended to say that since Yun Ran was injured, she should just stay home and recuperate. These messy events weren’t necessary to attend, as there would be more opportunities in the future.

But before he could finish speaking, Yun Ran interrupted with a voice full of delight: "Alright, I’ll go~"

Taoist Xia: ...

"Wait, aren’t you forgetting you’re a patient right now?"

"It’s just a minor injury, it’s not like I’m bedridden. I’m the temple master of Qingfeng Temple now; it’s important to meet more people."

Yun Ran’s words left Taoist Xia at a loss for words.

But he knew that once Yun Ran made up her mind about something, others couldn’t persuade her otherwise.

Scratching his head, he could only say helplessly, "Alright, then I won’t go back to the old estate for now. I’ll come over to pick you up tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Xuan Chu emerged from some corner, speaking hesitantly: "Didn’t Uncle Yan advise you to behave yourself a bit?"

Even though Yun Ran couldn’t use any Xuan Sect methods at the moment, Xuan Chu had no doubt that wherever Yun Ran went, someone would inevitably get ’unboxed.’

If possible, Xuan Chu hoped Yun Ran would stay here until Uncle Yan found someone to be her scapegoat before moving again.

"I’m just going out for a stroll, what’s so unruly about that? Besides, if certain people are shady, they should be the ones avoiding me, not the other way around!"

Xuan Chu sighed lightly; he knew it would turn out this way! 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Yun Ran was going to attend the networking event organized by the Xuan Sect forces, making the Little Paperman exceedingly busy.

Early the next morning, Yun Ran donned an impressively resilient vestment robe, while Erdan was drawn into the shape of a small handbag, carried in Yun Ran’s hand.

When Taoist Xia came to pick her up, he was fully on guard upon seeing Xuan Chu following behind her.

He remembered how, during the Xuanmen Competition, this guy was constantly monitoring Yun Ran.

Leaning in close to Yun Ran, Taoist Xia whispered, "What’s he doing here too? Is he still watching you?"

Yesterday, Taoist Xia hadn’t seen Xuan Chu, so he didn’t know that Xuan Chu was now accompanying Yun Ran in the role of a ’bodyguard.’

Xuan Chu naturally also saw the wary look Taoist Xia gave him, as if he were up to no good, leaving him speechless.

"Oh him, I made a deal with him. Before I recover, he’ll stay by my side to protect me."

Taoist Xia immediately widened his eyes, full of disbelief.

After all, he had witnessed firsthand how these two had once been at each other’s throats, and now this fast, they were allies?

Taoist Xia silently gave Yun Ran a thumbs up; when it came to bluffing people, Yun Ran was indeed professional.

Seeing Taoist Xia’s ’I get it’ face, Yun Ran didn’t bother to explain further. A misunderstanding was just fine.

Otherwise, if some jealous people found out, not only was she on good terms with the Special Administration Bureau but also with the people from Heavenly Dao Village, they’d be fuming with jealousy.

She wasn’t afraid of those people, but she was tired of their constant sarcastic remarks.

"Alright, let’s hurry and get going. I’ve never officially attended such a networking event before."

Remembering something, Taoist Xia quickly added, "I know you have a quick temper, but later, if you hear something unpleasant at the event, try not to react impulsively."

Taoist Xia knew exactly what kind of people they were, but Yun Ran’s current status was different now. In the future, she would inevitably deal with these people.

Even if they said unpleasant things, getting to know more people would ultimately bring more benefits than harm.

Without thinking, Yun Ran nodded right away, as long as she agreed, but ultimately how she acted was her prerogative.

At that moment, Taoist Xia had no idea that Yun Ran’s mouth was sharp enough to silence everyone.

Soon, the car arrived at a picturesque location, and upon looking around, it seemed more like a scenic spot.

At the entrance stood a large sign with the words: [Private Property, No Entry]

Yun Ran pouted, "As expected, such a picturesque, feng shui-favored place has long been cordoned off."

The car drove for quite a while longer until they reached a spot situated in the hollow of a mountain.

After getting out of the car, Yun Ran looked around, a hint of envy showing in her eyes.

"This landscape is completely a treasure bowl setup."

Taoist Xia cleared his throat, "Keep your voice down; after all, you’re the temple master of Qingfeng Temple now, have the demeanor of an expert~"

Yun Ran: ...

What a poetic way to say she should ’put on airs.’

"Don’t worry, putting on airs is something I’m quite adept at."

Now it was Taoist Xia’s turn to be speechless again, feeling like his earlier gesture of stroking an imaginary beard was quite unnecessary.

"Maybe you should just follow my lead later, otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll end up offending everyone."

After all, such networking events are just occasions for mutual flattery, where everyone is an expert, giving each other face.

Yun Ran nodded, "Rest assured, I’ll be absolutely fine."

Taoist Xia felt relieved but didn’t know his relief would soon prove premature.

The attendants at the gate were all dressed in traditional long gowns, respectfully waiting to receive the invitations handed over by the distinguished guests.
