Chapter 1559: Chapter 1381: A Stormy Night in Jianghu

Hong Yan couldn’t help but curse a bunch, this also reflected her true opinion of Bei Shan.

As soon as she finished cursing, Bei Shan started to defend himself, "So I’m such a bad guy in your eyes? But I need to clear my name. First, I’m not creepy at all. In our tribe, Yun Xiao and I are tied for the title of the four most handsome men."

"You are nowhere near as good as Yun Xiao!" Hong Yan scolded.

"How am I not as good? Is it just because Yun Xiao loves to act cool and I’m more easy-going, so everyone likes him? I think you women are just shallow, unable to see what’s inside a person," Bei Shan explained strenuously, "Also, am I narcissistic? I’m not narcissistic, it’s a fact. And I’m not deceitful. Like today’s incident, if you hadn’t struck first, I wouldn’t have trapped you. This net was originally intended for trapping wild beasts. Oh right, you’ve accused me of being lecherous, but whom have I lusted after besides you?"

Bei Shan became more and more aggrieved as he spoke.

"You’re not lecherous? Don’t think I don’t know about you practicing that ’Love Gu’ spell in the Central Plains. It’s utterly disgusting!" Hong Yan glared at Bei Shan.

"I didn’t want to practice that Gu! It’s just that... I stole a book from the Clan Chief that day, which contained the method for practicing this kind of Gu. The Clan Chief said it suited me. Look, I went to the Central Plains to practice it and didn’t harm any virtuous women, right? Do you think I enjoyed it? I’ve been miserable. Not one of those courtesans was good-looking; none could compare to you. If you were willing, I’d much rather hold you every day and never touch another woman... but you’re not willing!"

Hong Yan didn’t know whether what Bei Shan said was true or false. She had never heard such beautiful flattery in her life. Was Bei Shan complimenting her beauty now?

Her anger subsided a bit, but she still said coldly, "Get that idea out of your head. Don’t think I don’t know you’re the type to flirt with any woman you see."

"That’s a false accusation. Who have I flirted with? I just say hello when I see other ladies. I haven’t hugged them or kissed them, much less touched..." Bei Shan grew more excited as he spoke, only to be coldly interrupted by Hong Yan, "If you like me so much, then why haven’t you freed me?"

"Then you must promise that once I let you out, you won’t fight anymore, and if you have something to say, you must speak nicely," Bei Shan said, his expression resembling that of a child.

"I certainly won’t hit you," Hong Yan said.

"Words alone are not proof. You’ll have to give me a kiss," said Bei Shan before leaning in with his face.

Stuck in the net, Hong Yan figured it was not worth being a sore loser about a kiss, so she pecked Bei Shan on the face.

Bei Shan felt Hong Yan’s soft lips and was immediately overwhelmed with joy, dizzy and ecstatic. He quickly unraveled Hong Yan’s net while insisting, "You see, talking nicely is more important than anything, right? Now you’ve kissed me too, you know? Over in the Central Plains, a kiss means you’re someone’s woman, so that means from now on you are..."

However, before he could finish, he saw Hong Yan lift her head to glance at him.

"Hong Yan, what is this...?" Bei Shan felt the shy tenderness disappear from Hong Yan’s eyes, replaced by a murderous glare.

Before he could react, Hong Yan’s fist swung towards him, "I’ll beat you to death, you pervert!"
