The Furnace Tripod Just Wants to Spread Out and Hug the Thighs

【A seemingly carefree little underdog × a seemingly cold, wooden childhood friend who is actually a brooding sect leader】 Jiang Ran had round, bright eyes that made her look sweet and endearing. Everyone said she was easily one of the three most lovable girls in Nanzhuang. But when it came to the person everyone most wanted to avoid, there was only one candidate: her childhood friend, Long Zhu. The young man was strikingly handsome, but he came from a poor background and was a taciturn fool who never knew how to appreciate kindness. In her previous life, Jiang Ran had heard what he would become: the future leader of the Xuanqing Sect, and a cold-faced sword cultivator feared by every demonic cultivator. He was ruthless and never let his feelings show. The two of them had never had anything to do with each other. Until one day, she was abducted by the demonic cultivator Qianye and forced to become a cultivation vessel, enduring six hundred years of torment. Reborn on the day of the disciple selection, she lifted her eyes and met the young man’s handsome gaze. Hoping to latch onto someone powerful, Jiang Ran used the white-lotus act she had learned in her previous life and, emboldened by wine, approached him that very night. To her surprise, her childhood friend was so aloof that he wiped his hand as if it were dirty. That little incident only stirred Jiang Ran’s competitive spirit. She made a point of bothering him every day. At first, all he ever replied was a flat “Mm.” But over time, Jiang Ran’s persistence wore him down. He even began offering her his sword of his own accord. Jiang Ran was so delighted she nearly wept with joy. But later, she could only cry in despair. Can someone tell her why the cold, noble sect leader keeps checking up on her every day behind her back, brooding over imagined scenes of her abandoning him?! After they marry, Jiang Ran’s legs are nearly too weak to stand every day, while Long Zhu leisurely kisses away her tears. “I can be even worse.” Theme: Never give up on yourself.
