Chapter 472: Qian Wanyi’s Challenge

Using the skill “Protagonist Position Sense.”

Wang Haoran could sense that Li Yuan was gradually moving toward Piao Miao Holy Land.

However, he had no intention of “reporting Li Yuan for colluding with a beast”—after all, the “collusion partner,” the fox spirit, was currently nestled in his arms!

Rubbing the belly of the lazy fox who only ate and slept, Wang Haoran said:

“Stinky fox, my Martial Aunt is coming!”

“Aren’t you going to hide?”

However, Tushan Yingyu, opening her eyes, was furious—

“Bastard, I’m not a stinky fox! I don’t have ‘fox odor’!”

Over their time together, she had learned how to “handle” Wang Haoran.

She quickly nuzzled against his shoulder, using her fluffy tail to tickle his nose:

“Does it smell good or bad?”

“This lady allows you to rethink your words!”

Wang Haoran could only reply, “Alright, alright, you’re a fragrant fox!”

“Hmph!”

Satisfied, Tushan Yingyu obediently slipped into Wang Haoran’s sleeve.

Shortly after.

Shangguan Yunlan entered the room.

Beside her was her little disciple, Qian Anning—

“Haoran, my mother is arriving this afternoon!”

“I want to introduce you to her!”

Seeing the affectionate pair, Shangguan Yunlan couldn’t help but remind them.

“For the next few days, you two need to be careful and restrained.”

“Anning’s mother is quite strong.”

“If she meets you and senses something about Anning…”

Shangguan Yunlan recalled the morning after Wang Haoran’s first overnight visit to the First Peak.

Qian Anning had woken up looking… “rejuvenated”…

“She might really lose her temper!”

After Shangguan Yunlan finished speaking, Qian Anning immediately protested.

“Master, what nonsense are you talking about…”

She couldn’t help but blush.

Wang Haoran, however, was thick-skinned—

“Then… what if it were you, Martial Aunt?”

Shangguan Yunlan instantly replied, “I wouldn’t care! My strength is far greater than that woman’s!”

“Whatever happens, I’ll be fine!”

Her eyes filled with affection, and after locking eyes with Wang Haoran for a moment, she couldn’t resist leaning in for a kiss.

“Mm~ Haoran~”

“Muah~ muah~” entangled in affection.

“……”

Though the master and disciple had already been open about their relationship, the usually stern Shangguan Yunlan acting so differently still shocked Qian Anning—

“Master, you’re shameless!”

“Then I want to be shameless too!”

***

The afternoon arrived quickly.

With Qian Wanyi’s arrival, though both master and disciple suffered together.

The “final hardship” fell entirely on Shangguan Yunlan.

After getting ready.

Wang Haoran, Shangguan Yunlan, and Qian Anning went to the First Peak to wait.

Before long, they saw the protagonist Li Yuan arriving with a noble-looking woman.

“So this is Junior Sister’s mother, my future mother-in-law?”

“She looks quite young!”

Of course, since she was a Grandmaster, looking young was perfectly normal.

As Wang Haoran observed Qian Wanyi, she was also scrutinizing him.

Seeing the man her precious Anning was clinging to affectionately.

Their eyes met, and it felt as if an electric current passed between them.

Qian Wanyi’s eyes widened uncontrollably—

“This face…?!”

Handsome, yes, but that wasn’t the point.

“That woman!”

“He looks so much like that woman!”

Qian Wanyi immediately thought of the woman she “hated with a passion”!

It had been many years ago.

Back then, she was young and impulsive.

At her family’s shop, she saw a poorly dressed woman trying to enter, and she stopped her with mocking words.

“Our shop’s items are very expensive!”

“With your shabby appearance, how could you afford anything?”

At the time, the woman she mocked left “in disgrace,” making her feel triumphant.

But she hadn’t expected.

That very night, someone sneaked into her room, gagged her.

Threw a sack over her and gave her a thorough beating!

Before leaving, they stripped her, pinched and slapped her, and mockingly said, “You’re quite plump, tough mouth but soft butt!”

Then they took her undergarments as a “souvenir”!

And this didn’t happen just once—it happened five times!

It wasn’t until the last time that the “villain” didn’t wear a sack, allowing her to see their face!

It was the woman she had mocked!

—Such a humiliating event was something Qian Wanyi could never forget!

So, at this moment.

Seeing this man who resembled that “culprit” so much.

Realizing her Anning had already lost her innocence, she couldn’t hold back—

“Anning, come to your mother!”

“Mm!” Unaware of her mother’s anger, Qian Anning immediately walked over.

Clinging affectionately to Qian Wanyi’s arm, she tried to introduce her lover—

“Mother, he… his name is Wang Haoran…”

But the shy Qian Anning had barely said his name before Qian Wanyi interrupted.

She looked as if she could no longer suppress her anger—

“Your name is Wang Haoran, right?”

“I heard you have several girlfriends?”

“Hmph, so unfaithful, how could you be worthy of my Anning!”

“If you have any sense, you’d leave immediately!”

He looks so much like that woman; they must be related! Maybe mother and son!

Which means, your mother humiliated me, and now you’re “humiliating” my daughter?

How could I tolerate this!?

Used to being authoritative, Qian Wanyi spoke harshly.

“……”

“……”

Though her words were somewhat reasonable.

Seeing her immediately making things difficult for Wang Haoran without even starting a proper conversation.

Aside from the secretly pleased Li Yuan, everyone else dropped their smiles.

“Mother, what are you saying!” Qian Anning was immediately anxious.

“Qian Wanyi, are you here as a guest or to cause trouble?” Shangguan Yunlan’s expression also darkened, defending her lover.

As for Wang Haoran—

“Have some sense…”

“Are you sure?”

Since the heroine asked him to have some sense…

“I am very ‘self-aware,’ you know!”

There was no need to pretend to be a good person anymore, nor to care about appearances.

He revealed his true nature—

“Auntie, since you said that.”

“Then I won’t hold back!”
