Chapter 10: Soaring Favorability
"Le Yan, I..."
Fu Xingchen was startled by the intimate name he blurted out, but he was still reluctant to let go of Shao Leyan's hand, but instead held it tighter.
"I can contact you, right?"
Fu Xingchen's eyes were moist, and his long eyelashes trembled, revealing crystal tears.
His voice trembled violently as he repeated it uncertainly.
"Can I really?"
Shao Leyan didn't expect that his simple request would make Fu Xingchen, a big shot who never showed his emotions, cry.
She didn't know much about Fu Xingchen. She only felt that although he was tall and handsome, he had an aura of intimidation without even being angry, and it was obvious at first glance that he was not someone who was easy to get close to.
But now he openly revealed his scars to her and even cried vulnerablely, and Shao Leyan's heart softened.
She bravely released her small hand from his palm, and before he could show his disappointment, she gently placed her warm and soft palm against the side of his face.
The skin on Fu Xingchen's cheek was more delicate and smooth than the skin on his palm, which reminded Shao Leyan of the satin quilt he liked to sleep under when he was at home.
"Of course!"
Shao Leyan comforted Fu Xingchen in a soft voice.
A pair of beautiful eyes were filled with kindness, thoughtfulness and tolerance, and her fingers gently stroked Fu Xingchen's cheek, as gentle as rubbing a cat's face.
"I like your ability. Release more of it. The current level is no different from a caress to me."
Fu Xingchen's heart softened, and he couldn't help but press his palm against Shao Leyan's, releasing a stronger supernatural power, and finally heard Shao Leyan's soft gasps of enjoyment...
The two found the zombie crystal core in the Red Flame Area and returned to the dungeon along the original route. Except for the minor disturbance caused by Shi Huai, the journey was smooth.
However, the two of them held hands the entire time, not even separating when they were driving.
Dungeon.
Le An said that he believed Fu Xingchen would bring Shao Leyan back safely, but he was still very worried.
This world is too dangerous, and it is simply not something that Shao Leyan, the heroine of a story about a wealthy family and abusive relationships, can withstand.
Shao Leyan finally had a second life, it can't end again without him enjoying anything!
All of Le An's worries and anxieties at this moment disappeared when he saw Fu Xingchen and Shao Leyan walking side by side.
Looking down, Le An saw their tightly clasped hands, and his pupils trembled suddenly, as if fireworks were blooming in his mind.
"elder brother!"
When Shao Leyan saw Le An waiting for her outside the ladder to heaven, she was very moved, but she was reluctant to let go of Fu Xingchen's hand, so she could only hold Fu Xingchen's arm, and the two of them quickened their pace and walked to Le An.
Le An touched Shao Leyan's head lovingly.
"Yanyan, I'm glad you're okay. City Lord Fu has powerful abilities and can protect you well."
Because of Shao Leyan, Fu Xingchen also felt a little closer to Le An, and said in a firm tone:
"I will protect her from now on, so don't worry."
Le'an was extremely happy, but he didn't want to show it too obviously, otherwise if Fu Xingchen thought that the brother and sister had other intentions towards him, Shao Leyan's efforts would be wasted.
Le An suppressed the corners of his lips that were rising wildly and pointed at Shao Leyan.
"Then I'll trouble you, City Lord, but I'm afraid you two will have to separate for a while. The director said that when Yanyan comes back, she must report to the research institute with me."
Fu Xingchen frowned and gently pinched Shao Leyan's soft and boneless little hand.
The woman's fingers were slender and long, and her palms and backs of her hands were as soft as marshmallows, making him unable to let go.
He already knew the purpose of Fu Xingyan bringing Shao Leyan back, but now he was reluctant to send Shao Leyan to that devil's cave.
Such a pretty, delicate and self-protective little thing should be protected in the safest and most comfortable place, and grow up slowly in peace and quiet.
Fu Xingchen's mind flashed with the image of Shao Leyan's curvy and slender figure standing quietly by the window.
When she turned around and looked at him, a joyful and gentle smile was on her beautiful and delicate face, and her eyes, as smart and pure as a deer, were shining with a sparkling light.
The plump cherry mouth curls up in an upward arc. When speaking, the red lips open and close, revealing the white and neat teeth from time to time. The taste inside must be sweeter than sugar.
Fu Xingchen's Adam's apple rolled up and down, his breathing became heavier, and he subconsciously used force with his hands, rubbing Shao Leyan's little hands until the skin turned red.
His tone of refusal left no room for doubt. "Le Yan will not be going to the institute. I will make it clear to Xing Yan. You can just report there directly."
Le An was waiting for him to say this, and nodded happily, wishing he could send the two of them directly to the wedding scene of the wealthy world.
Although Shao Leyan was glad that she didn't have to go to the research institute to face Fu Xingyan, who had plans for her, this also meant that she had to separate from Le An.
She suddenly felt reluctant.
Le An's absence means that she has no cheats or plug-ins and can only rely on herself to venture into the dungeon.
But from childhood to adulthood, apart from her excellent academic performance and versatility, she has no other skills or advantages. She has even never had a serious job in her life and is just a newbie who knows nothing.
Can she do it?
"Brother, are we going to separate?"
Shao Leyan's aggrieved little face almost had the word "reluctant" clearly written on it.
Le An felt a little reluctant, but he couldn't just be a light bulb. Cultivating a relationship between these two people doesn't require a threesome!
Just as he was about to say something to comfort her, Fu Xingchen put his arm around Shao Leyan's shoulders and held her in his arms. His sharp eyes were now filled with doting and love, and he spoke softly and tenderly to comfort her.
"Don't worry, Le Yan. You and your sister just work in different places. You will still have many opportunities to meet. I will ask Xing Yan to arrange easy tasks for Le An and ask him to come to the City Lord's Palace to see you often."
Shao Leyan was still worried, but he smiled again when he heard Fu Xingchen's assurance.
"Really? Thank you, City Lord. You are such a good person."
Fu Xingchen rubbed Shao Leyan's head lovingly. The white lightning stimulated half of her hair to stand on end.
However, Shao Leyan couldn't see it, and Fu Xingchen couldn't bear to continue to torture her.
"Calling me City Lord is too formal. Just call me by my name."
Shao Leyan raised his head and rubbed Fu Xingchen's palm, which was flashing with lightning, and squinted his eyes comfortably with a satisfied smile.
"Okay, Xingchen."
Le An stood there blankly, looking at the two people's perfectly matched backs as they left. He sighed with relief and couldn't help but sigh.
This delicate wife heroine and the big boss hero are attracted to each other no matter which world they are in!
He didn't provide many assists, but his favorability has already risen to 80!
Even higher than Fu Xingchen’s favorability towards the original heroine!
