Chapter 194: Not Knowing What’s Good For You
After Huo Lingyin greeted Jiang Ran, her eyes fell on Si Xu who was beside Jiang Ran.
A glint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she smiled slightly. She moved her fingers from in front of Jiang Ran to in front of Si Xu. Her smile was like a spring breeze caressing a willow, melting away the coldness in her eyes.
"Hello."
Glancing at the hand in front of him, Si Xu took Jiang Ran's hand and said, "Now that you've had a good rest, shall we continue on our journey?"
He simply ignored the hand the woman stretched out in front of him.
Jiang Ran's admiration for women was shattered when she showed a "drooling" expression towards Si Xu.
She suppressed her smile and quietly looked at the woman's hand that stopped awkwardly in front of Si Xu, and smiled slightly: "Yes, it's time to hurry up, don't waste time in a place like this."
She took Si Xu's hand and turned to leave.
The woman withdrew her hand and looked at the backs of the two men, thinking.
The girl is not a psychic, and the boy is a space-type with little combat power. They seem to be a couple.
Being able to leave Xiling Base and go to Beichen Base probably means that they can no longer stay in Xiling Base.
The apocalypse is not like peacetime. How far can two people with almost zero combined combat power go in the apocalypse where zombies are everywhere?
The young man ignored her advances and showed his unwavering devotion to his lover. It seemed that this young couple had too little experience.
Thinking of this, Huo Lingyin called out to the two of them, "You two, our team is preparing to return to Beichen Base. Since we're going the same way, why don't we all travel together so we can look after each other."
Jiang Ran paused and turned to look at the woman: "Your team?" She glanced at the van, "Those people behind you?"
Huo Lingyin smiled faintly: "My team is resting five kilometers ahead."
"It looks like there are a lot of people here?" Jiang Ran held Si Xu's hand tightly, looked up and asked him, "Do you want to join them, Si Xu?"
Si Xu finally had the opportunity to be alone with the little girl, but he was unwilling to follow the group, especially an unfamiliar group.
But seeing that Jiang Ran seemed quite interested, he replied: "It's up to you."
Seeing his reluctance, Jiang Ran's fingers gently stroked his palm and replied to Huo Lingyin: "We don't like to travel with people we don't know. Sorry."
Is this a rejection?
Huo Lingyin's smile faded, and she stared coldly at the two people who refused to accept her toast. "One is a space system expert, and the other is an ordinary person. From Xiling to Beichen, are you two really sure you want to go alone?"
Jiang Ran hugged Si Xu's arm tightly, smiling brightly: "It's okay, my brother Si Xu is really awesome~"
After saying that, she rubbed against the man's arm like a cat.
Huo Lingyin: "Haha."
Si Xu was touched by the girl's soft and cute tone. He narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and confirmed his lover's compliment: "Yeah."
Huh? Amazing? Space-based, amazing? Haha. Feeling like she was being fed dog food, Huo Lingyin rolled her eyes at the two of them and got back into the car.
"Walk."
Since they are looking for death, why should she meddle in their affairs?
Although she did covet the man's beauty, she only liked the meat that was delivered to her door, and did not like the ungrateful one.
After the anger left him, Jiang Ran couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Si Xu, someone wants to seduce you, how can you be so rude and inconsiderate..."
Since that woman could become the captain of the first team, she must be a high-level psychic.
I'm afraid that along the way, I've never met such ungrateful guys like these two, right?
She was quite happy to join Beichen's team, but if that woman coveted her Si Xu, that would be a different matter.
The girl laughed crisply, and Si Xu simply picked her up and threw her back into the car amid her screams.
He grabbed her digging hands and leaned over to hold her down.
"Jiang Ran."
A hoarse voice successfully calmed the girl down.
"What did you just call me?"
This posture was a bit dangerous, Jiang Ran shrank back: "Si Xu..."
"No, even before."
Jiang Ran: "...Brother Si Xu."
He leaned in and kissed her, biting the tail end between his lips.
After finally letting go of the girl, he smiled and coaxed her: "Scream again."
Jiang Ran, whose brain was deprived of oxygen from the kiss, heard him say: "Si Xu...Brother."
He responded with a smile, pushed the person inside, squeezed into the car, closed the door and locked it.
"Sisisisixu, you've lost your integrity in broad daylight!"
"Jiang Ran, you called me the wrong name again."
You’re wrong!
"Wait a minute! Someone will really see us!"
"Except for zombies, there won't be anyone else. Besides, the car windows have been modified, so people outside can't see in."
“…”
"Jiang Ran."
"Um?"
"Keep calling me what you called me just now."
“…”Go to hell, you bastard!
…
Because someone had committed adultery during the day, it was already evening when they set out again.
Si Xu was driving, and Jiang Ran was curled up in the back seat, drowsy.
In order to find a place to rest before dark, Si Xu successfully drove into Huo Lingyin's team's camp.
The car was stopped, and the young man rolled down the window, revealing an expressionless yet handsome face that made people angry: "Stay overnight."
The psychic who stopped the car: "..."
Jiang Ran in the back seat: "..."
…
After hearing the deputy captain's report, Huo Lingyin laughed, threw down the map in his hand, and stood up to greet the guests.
"He's finally here..."
The woman's low, sarcastic laughter drifted in the evening breeze.
Jiang Ran was carried down from the car by Si Xu. She originally said she didn't need it, but Si Xu insisted on making it clear that he was already taken, so...
She could only pretend to be asleep.
With her cheek buried in Si Xu's arms, she felt that she acted very convincingly.
They delivered it to her door, and Huo Lingyin was obviously very happy.
She greeted the two of them warmly, personally arranged accommodation for them, and even personally walked them to the door.
"Stay." Si Xu blocked the doorway, not realizing he was indebted to anyone. "We're going to sleep, so please don't disturb us."
Huo Lingyin's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and she stopped: "Well, my room is next door. If you have any problems, you can always come to me."
After saying that, he did not forget to wink at Si Xu.
After the woman left, Jiang Ran jumped from Si Xu's arms to the ground, spinning in circles in anger: "Si Xu! She seduced you in front of me again! I'm going to draw a circle and curse her!"
Si Xu pushed her into the bathroom: "You've been working hard all afternoon, go take a shower and go to bed early."
"Why are you urging me to take a shower and go to bed?" Jiang Ran questioned as they walked, "Are you planning to find another young lady while I'm asleep?"
Si Xu said innocently: "No, I just..."
"Just what?"
"Wanted to see if you liked the bathroom."
Jiang Ran: “???” You like bathrooms? Aren’t all bathrooms the same? What’s your favorite or dislike?
When the man followed her into the bathroom and enthusiastically helped her adjust the water temperature, she realized belatedly that she had gotten herself into trouble again.
