Top-tier Unruly Master

"Silly girl..." Ding Fan looked at Zhou Ruoran with a heartache.

Then, Ding Fan didn't dare to delay any longer. He busily circulated the True Qi in his body to help heal Zhou Ruoran's wounds.

Zhou Ruoran's artery had been severed, and she was already very weak. If the bleeding wasn't stopped quickly, even Ding Fan wouldn't be able to save her.

Fortunately, Zhou Ruoran's blood vessels had just been cut, so for Ding Fan, saving her wasn't a difficult task.

It took over ten minutes before Zhou Ruoran's artery was repaired by Ding Fan, and by then the blood had been completely stopped.

"Ah?! Why are you here?" Just at that moment, Wu Min pushed open the door and walked in from outside.

Wu Min clearly remembered that in the morning, Ding Fan, that playboy, had left with that handsome and beautiful woman, so why was he here now?

"I'm treating Ruoran's illness, and now you are responsible for keeping watch at the door. Don't let anyone in," Ding Fan said to Wu Min with a serious face.

"Treating an illness? With you?..."

"If you don't want to see Ruoran die, then do as I say now."

Wu Min wanted to say something else, but Ding Fan spoke sternly.

Zhou Ruoran was very weak now. Although her blood vessels had healed, she had always had a heart condition, and the beating of her heart had become even weaker after the recent ordeal.

Wu Min was stunned, and even though she didn't like Ding Fan, for some reason, she couldn't refuse what Ding Fan was saying at this moment.

Without much hesitation, Wu Min turned around and stepped outside, taking up guard duty outside the sickroom.

Once Wu Min was out, Ding Fan immediately used True Qi to enter Zhou Ruoran's body, and then he began to repair her heart.

It took less than an hour, and Zhou Ruoran's heart was no longer in grave danger. Although the root cause of the illness hadn't been removed, there was no immediate risk to her life for the time being.

However, while healing Zhou Ruoran just now, Ding Fan discovered a problem.

There was a Gu Insect planted inside Zhou Ruoran's body.

There was only one Gu Insect.

It was a particularly vile kind of Gu. This Gu insect was about the size of a grain of rice, and if not for Ding Fan's exceptional Divine Sense, he might not have detected it at all.

The Gu insect was voraciously sucking blood, moving back and forth within the blood vessels. Ding Fan attempted several times to use True Qi to force the Gu insect out, but no matter how he pressured it, the Gu insect seemed quite intelligent and did not budge.

Ding Fan had also tried to kill it with True Qi.

However, to Ding Fan's astonishment, after the Gu insect inside Zhou Ruoran was killed, it actually split into two and became even more rampant... With that, Ding Fan did not dare to act rashly any further.

From this, Ding Fan understood the main reason Zhou Ruoran had been tormented to death was the Gu insect.

An insect that couldn't be forced out of the body and couldn't be killed by shock. More importantly, after being startled, the Gu insect hid near Zhou Ruoran's heart channels. It kept sucking blood, and with the rate it was going, how much blood did Zhou Ruoran have for the Gu insect to absorb?

With no other option, Ding Fan now could only protect Zhou Ruoran's heart channels with True Qi, to prevent the Gu insect from damaging the heart channels...

"Ding Fan... is that you?"

As Ding Fan was thinking about how to completely eradicate the Gu insect, Zhou Ruoran slowly opened her eyes.

At this moment, Zhou Ruoran's hair was spread out over her shoulders. Thanks to Ding Fan's treatment with True Yuan a moment ago, her originally pale face now had a bit more color.

That handsome face, those clear and moving eyes, and her fair neck... An ill beauty has her own charming appeal.

Ding Fan sat beside Zhou Ruoran and gently stroked her hair with his hand.

"It's me..." A smile hung on Ding Fan's face.

While he was treating Zhou Ruoran just now, Ding Fan felt a fear. If he hadn't come here today, he might never have had the chance to see Zhou Ruoran again.

Some things, once missed, are gone forever...

"Ding Fan... it really is you, it's really you..."

Zhou Ruoran struggled to get up from the bed, then threw herself into Ding Fan's arms, her body trembling, crying like a beauty in the rain.

"I'm sorry... Ding Fan... I'm sorry... I know I was wrong, please don't leave me again..."

Ding Fan gently stroked Zhou Ruoran's hair with his hand.

"I won't, I'll never leave you in this life."

At that moment, holding Zhou Ruran, Ding Fan felt for the first time in his two lives, that he was holding all that was dear to him.

He felt a sense of belonging.

Feeling the warmth from the body of his lover, Ding Fan swore at that moment to protect her for the rest of his life.

Holding Ding Fan, Zhou Ruoran felt an unreal sensation, even doubting whether she was dreaming.

```

After all, she had experienced this kind of dream far too many times in the past. Zhou Ruoran bit her own arm, and only when she felt that heart-piercing pain did she realize that this really wasn't a dream.

Her lover had finally returned... She had longed for this moment, and it had finally arrived...

"Hiss..."

While the two were embracing and crying, a wave of pain made Zhou Ruoran tremble all over.

Ding Fan naturally felt Zhou Ruoran's tremors. He quickly employed his Divine Sense to scan her and discovered that, for some reason, the two Gu Insects segregated from her heart meridians had become violent.

Ding Fan didn't dare to take this lightly. He steadied Zhou Ruoran and sat her upright, then used his True Qi to soothe the Gu Insects.

The Gu Insects could not be forced or killed by shock at the moment, so the only option was to use such a soothing method. At least for now, it could reduce some of Zhou Ruoran's pain.

Under the consolation of True Qi, the two initially violent Gu Insects calmed down.

Zhou Ruoran looked at Ding Fan in surprise. In the past, she would have to endure such pain several times a day, each time lasting about half an hour. But today, the pain had just started not long ago and Ding Fan had already healed it.

It's worth noting that not even the hospital doctors could soothe the pain, yet Ding Fan could.

Maybe hearing the commotion inside, Wu Min also walked in from outside.

"Ruoran, what's wrong with your body?" Ding Fan didn't mind Zhou Ruoran's astonishment and asked.

Zhou Ruoran pondered for a moment.

However, before Zhou Ruoran could speak, Wu Min already said,

"Isn't it because of that Young Master Qian from Dancheng?"

Young Master Qian?

Ding Fan looked towards Wu Min. "What happened?"

"Ding Fan, you don't need to worry about this matter... I'm already very happy that I can see you," Zhou Ruoran said from the side.

"Sister Ruoran..." Wu Min looked at Zhou Ruoran unhappily. "What's there to hide about the matter? That Young Master Qian likes Sister Ruoran. Sister Ruoran said she was already betrothed, and then that Young Master Qian persistently pursued and aggressively courted her.

That detestable fiancée of Young Master Qian, named Jin Ranran, got some kind of Gu Insect from somewhere and made Sister Ruoran what she is now."

"Ding Fan, it's all in the past, there's no need to worry about it..." Zhou Ruoran said with some concern.

Zhou Ruoran didn't want Ding Fan to know because Young Master Qian came from a prominent family background. She was afraid that Ding Fan, because of his sense of justice, might do something to bring about a disaster for the entire clan.

How could Ding Fan not know Zhou Ruoran's thoughts? He nodded.

It was already late into the night. After taking care of Zhou Ruoran for dinner, Ding Fan called Wu Min aside.

Wu Min didn't have a good impression of Ding Fan. Previously, Ding Fan had been intimate with a handsome and pretty woman, and now he had come here. If not for worrying about how Zhou Ruoran might not be able to handle the turmoil, Wu Min would have asked Ding Fan to leave long ago.

"What do you want?" Wu Min didn't hide her displeasure when she spoke.

Ding Fan naturally knew Wu Min misunderstood him, but he didn't blame her; after all, whatever she did was for Zhou Ruoran's sake.

"I have thirty thousand yuan here, thank you for taking care of Ruoran during this time."

Ding Fan wasn't short of money at the moment; he always kept several tens of thousands of yuan in cash in his storage ring for convenience.

Wu Min was slightly stunned when Ding Fan offered her the money. Then, with a disdainful glance at Ding Fan, she said, "Don't worry, for now, I won't tell Sister Ruoran about your messy affairs. But I'm telling you, you better not bully Sister Ruoran. Otherwise, I will never let you off."

After speaking, Wu Min directly took the money from Ding Fan's hand, her attitude clearly one of taking what's offered without hesitation.

Ding Fan internally understood Wu Min's thoughts, seeing that the girl had misunderstood his intention to use the money as hush money.

But he didn't bother to explain.

"What do you know about that Young Master Qian's fiancée?" Ding Fan went straight to what he most wanted to know.

Zhou Ruoran was Ding Fan's Achilles' heel, and since the other party dared to touch her, they had better be prepared to accept the consequences.

Zhou Ruoran was tormented by that Gu Insect to the point of wanting to die, and had it not been for Ding Fan's timely arrival, she might have already been dead. To force such a strong-willed girl to suicide showed just how terrifying the Gu Insect was.

"That woman is called Jin Ranran; her family seems to have quite some influence in Dancheng... Anything else you want to ask?" Wu Min said as she rolled her eyes at Ding Fan.

Ding Fan shook his head slightly.

At least he now knew who the other party was.

At this point, Wu Min wasn't interested in staying with Ding Fan any longer and turned to leave directly.

Ding Fan stood where he was, but a streak of murderous intent crossed his eyes.

Jin Ranran, huh?

Brace yourself for the retribution of how you've bullied Zhou Ruoran...
