Little Lotus was also amused to the point of speechlessness, but people can laugh when they're speechless. She laughed angrily and said, "I don't even have anywhere to draw on my face anymore!"
"It's okay, this round counts as you and your sister together, I'll draw you both together."
Su Xiaoqiang, true to her word, had no choice but to sit side by side with Lianhua and wait for Gu Ran to paint her face.
Just then, Zhang Qiong returned from hunting, carrying three pheasants and two rabbits.
She noticed that both girls' faces were painted black and asked with a smile, "What are you playing?"
"Aunt Zhang, my brother is bullying me!" Lianhua immediately stood up and went to Zhang Qiong to complain.
After hearing this, Zhang Qiong was both amused and exasperated, thinking to herself that her son could be quite childish at times.
"Lianhua, don't be afraid, Auntie will help you get revenge." Zhang Qiong put away the game she had hunted, washed her hands, and then sat down in front of the television.
"Mom, you're so old, do you even know how to play video games?"
"I often play games with Nuwa, and I even played this game with you when we were kids, don't you remember?"
Samurai Shodown II is an old game from the 1990s. Gu Ran did play it with Zhang Qiong when he was a child.
"I remember now, you used to really torture me to break my gaming addiction..."
Gu Ran immediately became interested: "I want to get revenge for what I did when I was a child!"
"This kid..."
Zhang Qiong was amused by her son's serious expression, so she picked up the controller and became serious as well.
She is also of mixed race, and her reaction and hand coordination are quite fast.
However, after five rounds...
Zhang Qiong's Tachibana Ukyo was knocked out by Gu Ran's Nakoruru again, with five consecutive perfect scores.
"Come on, come on, a bet's a bet, Mom, let me draw a big face on you!" Gu Ran didn't hold back and immediately picked up a pen to draw on her face.
Zhang Qiong's face had already been painted with several strokes; Gu Ranzhen hadn't held back at all, even when painting.
Zhang Qiong was furious that someone so old would have their face scribbled on, so she launched a sneak attack on Gu Ran, using a wrist brace armbar to lock one of his hands.
Seeing this, Su Xiaoqiang joined in, and she also held down one of Gu Ran's hands.
Gu Ran lay on the ground without putting up any resistance; he was just playing around. If he had used his superhuman strength, he could have easily thrown both of them away.
"Lianhua, hurry, give him the final blow," Su Xiaoqiang said to the little girl.
Xiao Lianhua immediately understood, suddenly jumped up, and used her "Crow Flying" technique on Gu Ran, sitting down on his broad chest.
A child's bottom is soft and their weight is light, so the impact is not significant.
Lianhua held a pen in her hand, opened the cap, and just when everyone thought she was about to draw a big mess on Gu Ran's face, she lowered her head slightly and kissed Gu Ran's cheek.
"I...I like my brother..." Lianhua said shyly.
Gu Ran smiled happily, knowing that it was just a child's simple liking and had no other meaning.
He laughed and said, "Since you like me, why don't you stop painting my face?"
"That won't do!" Lianhua still picked up the pen and drew a big black face on Gu Ran's face.
Soon, all four of them had black marks on their faces, and then they looked at each other's faces and burst into laughter.
……
In the evening, Gu Ran took Xiao Lianhua to build an earthen kiln in the field and made kiln chicken for her. The kiln chicken smelled delicious after it came out of the kiln, and the girl ate it with her mouth full of oil, saying "Brother" was so amazing.
Being admired by the child made Gu Ran extremely proud, and she played with her all night until nine o'clock in the evening before reluctantly going home.
Gu Ran also went to the bathroom and took a nice hot bath. After he finished, it was Su Xiaoqiang's turn. Since his mother was there, he didn't pull Su Xiaoqiang to bathe with him, so as not to make her feel embarrassed.
After taking a shower, he sat in his bedroom and used his laptop to browse the school forum and read gossip.
Just then, the notebook received an email from Yuan Zhisheng, who had finished writing the report.
As a former recipient of the Principal's Scholarship, Yuan Zhisheng was also an excellent student in writing reports. His report was perfect, and Gu Ran read it several times without finding any flaws. It was more than enough to satisfy the college.
Those behind the scenes, upon seeing this report, could not deduce anything.
Moreover, the person behind the scenes is probably still having a headache over the whereabouts of the White King's dragon bone. Previously, the dragon bone of Fenrir, the King of Earth and Mountains, was intercepted by Gu Ran, and now the White King's dragon bone has been taken into Gu Ran's possession at the first opportunity. He probably can't even imagine Gu Ran's methods.
The retrieval of the White King's dragon bones could take more than a month and would require clandestine operations. However, Gu Ran, relying on the mark of the Flying Thunder God, retrieved the White King's dragon bones in just ten minutes and left without a trace.
Therefore, whether Odin will continue to awaken the Black King remains to be seen.
If he hadn't awakened the Black King, Ragnarok wouldn't have come ahead of schedule.
If he chooses to continue waking up the Black King, then Gu Ran will have to confront him head-on.
Gu Ran was lost in thought when suddenly a soft body gently embraced him from behind, its smooth cheek pressed against his face.
"What are you thinking about?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.
"I'm thinking about where I should take you this summer vacation." Gu Ran held Su Xiaoqiang's hand and kissed the back of her hand.
It's already May, and there's only a little over a month left until summer vacation.
Su Xiaoqiang sat down next to Gu Ran. Gu Ran glanced at her and saw that she was wearing a white lace slip dress, revealing a large expanse of fair skin on her chest. Her cleavage was incredibly deep, and the hem of the dress just covered her thighs. Her long, slender, and fair legs were laid out gracefully on the tatami.
Unable to resist, he picked up the beautiful woman in a princess carry and placed her on his lap so he could better appreciate her figure.
Su Xiaoqiang leaned against him, pinched his cheek, and then stroked his muscular chest, drawing circles on his chest with both hands:
“We have to go back to Binhai this summer for our engagement ceremony. My dad has been choosing the date for a long time, but he doesn’t plan to have a big banquet. He just invites some relatives and friends and sets up a few tables in the garden at home.”
"I know that. My mom told me that our only relative here is my aunt. No one else will be coming."
Su Xiaoqiang suddenly giggled: "Speaking of which, when we first got together, my dad even wanted you to be his live-in son-in-law!"
"Actually, I also want to be a kept man. Soft and fragrant rice is delicious and easy to digest... Unfortunately, I can't afford it!" As she spoke, Gu Ran lowered her head and buried it in Su Xiaoqiang's chest, tickling her.
Su Xiaoqiang chuckled and pushed Gu Ran's head away, then stretched out her long, slender, white arms to hug Gu Ran's neck and kissed his cheek: "I've suddenly had a thought these past few days, I really want to have a child with you."
Gu Ran put his arm around her shoulder, stroking her smooth, fragrant shoulder, and pouted, saying aggrievedly, "What's wrong? Don't you love me anymore? Why did you have to find a third party to interfere in our relationship?"
"Get lost! You're getting the benefits and then acting innocent!" Su Xiaoqiang pinched his pouting lips with her fingertips. "I see you really like kids!"
"I do really enjoy playing with the kids, but... we haven't had enough of our time together yet!" Gu Ran lowered his head slightly, kissed her moist lips briefly, and then pulled away.
Chapter 526 Red Rinnegan
Su Xiaoqiang rolled her eyes at him, her charming eyes revealing a myriad of allure, inadvertently displaying a mature and alluring charm.
This woman became incredibly charming in his hands, and her charm was only revealed to him.
The thought of these things makes a man's possessiveness impossible to suppress.
He had one arm around her smooth back and the other hand caressing her rounded thigh.
Su Xiaoqiang sensed his subtle movements and her heart began to stir. Last night, Gu Ran was too tired, so they didn't do anything but sleep together in each other's arms.
Tonight, it's time to do some things that adults like to do.
She rolled over and sat on Gu Ran's lap, facing him as they embraced, then kissed him, and slowly pushed him down onto the tatami mat.
Her dress fluttered in the wind, like endlessly surging clouds.
Jiang Tao, one sound high, one sound low.
Leaving behind beautiful and melodious notes.
*……*……*
The next morning, Su Xiaoqiang was returning to China, and Zhang Qiong was going with her.
Lianhua had to go to school today, but classes didn't start until nine o'clock, so she got up very early and pouted as she reluctantly said goodbye to her older sister Xiaoqiang.
"Sister, will we ever see each other again?" Lianhua held Su Xiaoqiang's hand, her emotions filled with reluctance at parting from her friend.
Children are so innocent; they wear their hearts on their sleeves.
Su Xiaoqiang thought for a moment, then squatted down and hugged the little girl: "Wait until summer vacation, I'll invite you to my house to play during summer vacation, okay? When my brother and I get engaged, you can be our flower girl."
"Really?" Xiao Lianhua smiled through her tears, because she realized that summer vacation didn't seem too far away, only about two months away.
"Really, really," Su Xiaoqiang promised.
"Let's pinky swear!"
"Okay." Su Xiaoqiang extended her slender little finger and made a pinky promise with the little girl's small and cute little finger.
"Sister, I miss you, can I call you?"
"Okay!"
After they parted ways, Su Xiaoqiang and Zhang Qiong boarded a helicopter, preparing to fly to the airport and take a flight back to China.
As for Gu Ran, he will stay in Japan for a few more weeks to handle some follow-up matters with the academy, which will allow him to spend more time with Xiao Lianhua.
The psychological counseling team from Kassel College has arrived in Tokyo, led by Masafumi Tomiyama. In reality, they are a brainwashing team tasked with erasing the memories of those who have seen Deadpool and Corpse Guardian to prevent any lasting effects.
Gu Ran then went to help out, doing things like hypnosis, which were considered Gu Ran's extracurricular learning and earned academic credits.
During this time, an incident occurred in which he and Uesugi exchanged a few blows.
The story is quite simple. One day, Uesugi saw Gu Ran's back and suddenly remembered the woman who saved them on the artificial island. He thought Gu Ran's back looked very similar, so he immediately felt itchy to challenge her to a duel.
When Gu Ran saw Uesugi Yue, he immediately perked up, almost forgetting that the old 'Emperor's' blood sample had not yet been collected.
The two hit it off immediately and found a patch of wilderness to spar.
This former "emperor" of Japan is indeed formidable. He has mastered all the sword styles and techniques of Japan. When Gu Ran sparred with him, even with his Sharingan activated for insight and prediction, the outcome was still only a 50/50 match.
Of course, Gu Ran did not use the Ama no Kusanagi, but only used the Ichimonji Norimune.
Uesugi was secretly alarmed to see that this young man was only in his early twenties, but his swordsmanship was very skillful and his reactions were extremely fast.
You should know that his swordsmanship is such that his two sons could only withstand a maximum of thirty or so moves from him. His elder son's bloodline was slightly inferior, and he was defeated in about ten moves. His younger son's bloodline was better, but he could only last for thirty moves.
As for his youngest daughter, who has the best bloodline... it's not good for girls to fight, so he never challenges Erii to a sword duel.
However, besides physical skills and swordsmanship, Gu Ran also has ninjutsu, and he is also quite good at illusion techniques... He uses illusion techniques to distract Uesugi Setsuna during the instant their eyes make contact.
So, in the end, Gu Ran defeated Uesugi Yue by half a move, cutting the skin on his arm and obtaining a blood sample from him.
Uesugi Kotsuki accepted his defeat wholeheartedly and generously gifted Gu Ran several ancient swords as a souvenir.
