Chapter 96 Soft



◎Do you want to try it?◎

"Xiaoxiao, why don't you sleep?" A smile naturally appeared on the cold face, and Yan Jue casually wrapped the quilt in his arms around her.

Rong Xiao didn't say anything. Even though the light around her was dim, her eyes always seemed to reflect light, and she raised her head to look at him carefully and earnestly.

This strange behavior was not new today. Yan Jue did not disturb her, but just helped her to gather the quilt and let her watch.

After several minutes, Rong Xiao suddenly spoke mysteriously, "Yan Jue, did you notice that glowing thing?"

"Hmm...your eyes?" Yan Jue's fingers gently stroked her temples.

Rong Xiao shook her head vigorously, her hair flying in the air and sticking to her face. She grabbed it away twice, and her hand unconsciously passed in front of her lips: "I applied that little round tube, look! Isn't it soft?"

This... can you still see the texture?

But seeing her serious expression, Yan Jue didn't want to give her a perfunctory answer. He took a closer look before answering, "It looks soft."

"I can't tell. Do you want to try?"

"ah?"

The living room suddenly became quiet, and Yan Jue's eyes widened in shock in the darkness.

Rong Xiao suddenly stood up, resting his hands on the back of the sofa, a subtle excitement in his eyes: "Want to try it?"

Yan Jue did not answer, his gaze fixed on the space under Rong Xiao's arm.

Now her speed and strength are not as terrifying as before, but she can still escape if she wants to...wait...

Why did he run away?

Yan Jue adjusted himself and sat up straight, then poked her between the eyebrows seriously: "Didn't you read the book I gave you carefully?"

"Yes."

"Is this something you can do casually?"

"I'm not being casual, I just want to try it with you."

Yan Jue's breathing suddenly became heavy, as if something suddenly stabbed his heart, making his head hot and even his speech lacking logic.

"I read the book carefully. That's why I wanted to try it," Rong Xiao said, gently grabbing his collar. "I think I understand the feeling you were talking about."

"Rong Xiao..."

"Try it?"

Yan Jue had never seen her eyes at such a close distance.

The absence of light does not prevent her eyes from being as beautiful as the stars in the night sky.

He reached out and stroked her lips, as if deliberately suppressing himself to give her time to think and regret.

Not only did Rong Xiao not regret it, but she was eager to get closer to him. The feeling of being so close seemed to be a challenge to him. Even she did not hesitate, so how could he retreat?

The tentative and gentle touch made Rong Xiao feel no discomfort.

Perhaps it should be said that she seemed to experience the feeling of a quickened heartbeat described in the novel.

Even if I closed my eyes, Yan Jue's presence was too strong to ignore. When his breath overlapped with my own and I couldn't tell whose temperature it was...

However, Rong Xiao felt that his own experience was completely different from his understanding from the book.

It turns out that when the description between the lines becomes personal experience, the emotions are completely turned upside down.

His head felt dizzy and heavy. After a long time, Rong Xiao smelled the cold wind coming in through the window, and the pressure on his lips disappeared.

I don’t know when the sun came out, the sky was bright, and a golden light fell on the right side of Yan Jue’s face, which was so beautiful.

Rong Xiao chuckled to himself twice, then suddenly opened his arms and threw himself into his arms: "How does it feel?"

He chuckled helplessly beside my ear: "Great."

"Then we can try again after we get back, okay?"

Yan Jue couldn't help but tighten his embrace and gently kissed her ear: "I'll do as you say."

They didn't have much time left in the morning, so Yan Jue just made some food and asked Rong Xiao to pack up and meet at the gathering point at the gate.

Tian Yiwen arrived very early and was holding a list, seemingly checking whether any supplies were missing.

Seeing Rong Xiao and Yan Jue appear, he greeted them with a smile and continued with his work.

The safety area gave them two modified off-road vehicles that could seat at least 10 people.

Some supplies were placed in the trunk and on the roof, and then secured and covered with waterproof cloth.

Yan Jue looked around. Except for Tian Yiwen, he didn't recognize anyone else. They seemed to be staff who were simply helping to arrange supplies, not candidates for the joint action.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, you're here really early!" Shangguan Huai's energetic voice came from behind, and next to him was Shangguan Yu who was still yawning.

As soon as the two arrived, Long Qingyu and Ling Xi also arrived.

The last to arrive were Tian Yichuang and Wei Feng.

"They're going with us?" Yan Jue frowned. He didn't expect that they would be the ones assigned to the safe zone?!

Tian Yiwen noticed Yan Jue's confusion, twirled the pen in her fingertips, and patiently explained, "Considering that they have cooperated with Rong Xiao many times before, if she encounters danger, they are the ones who are truly willing to risk their lives to protect her. Don't forget, the current Rong Xiao is not the same Rong Xiao as before."

Looking at the team reminiscing about the past and laughing and joking, Yan Jue could not see any powerful aura from them.

But I have to admit that this group of people is absolutely trustworthy and reliable.

Just as Rong Xiao believed in them at the beginning, Yan Jue felt a unique connection and absolute trust from them.

Rong Xiao had saved and protected many people before, including her teammates, but today... what she needed was the protection of others. These people would definitely give everything without hesitation to ignite new hope for her.

"Wow... Glad I didn't leave. Sorry, sorry, I'm a little late because I took a shower."

Someone was running towards them breathlessly not far away. Yan Jue caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, and his heart began to beat.

Yan Jing became like himself again, like a sickly person. He started panting after running a few steps and was still panting when he stood in front of him.

"Thank you for your hard work. You got up so early in the morning to send us off." Yan Jue forced a smile and patted Yan Jing's shoulder, which was rising and falling due to his breathing.

The person being photographed was stunned and immediately opened his hand: "Why am I here to send you off? I want to go too."

Yan Jue called out to Tian Yiwen in disbelief: "No way, he's going too?"

"Yan Jing's ability might come in handy," Tian Yiwen glanced at Yan Jing who was squatting and resting. "I've talked to Rong Xiao's teammates and learned that you've been hunted by an organization several times before. Their goal is to capture Rong Xiao. I can roughly guess who it's related to. If it's really him, then we might be in danger when we go to the laboratory. Then..."

"So... using him?" Yan Jue's heart sank. Looking at Yan Jing who seemed to know nothing, he suddenly felt sorry for him.

Even if they just play around on a daily basis, Yan Jue won't joke about Yan Jing's life when it comes to something really dangerous.

Yan Jing finally recovered and said with a smile, "Wow, you're actually worried about me? Don't worry, Auntie Tian and I have discussed this matter. I'm so smart, there's nothing I can't handle."

Yan Jue: I shouldn’t have worried about you.
