When I came out of the shower, Gu Fei was already cooking.
Qi Ran stood at the kitchen door for a while before humming a song softly as she went into the room to change her clothes.
She opened the wardrobe, looked at the dresses lying at the bottom, hesitated for a moment, and then took out a white spaghetti strap dress and put it on.
Actually, she always wore skirts while at the base.
Because she has loved dressing up since she was a child, she doesn't feel that she should change just because her circumstances have changed. Anyway, the Northern Territory is very safe, with Ye Wentian protecting her.
But everyone at the base had a problem with her wearing a skirt.
Some men stared at her blatantly, while others made lewd jokes behind her back. The women, in particular, disliked her and would utter all sorts of sarcastic remarks without hesitation.
Even so, she still insisted on wearing skirts.
She didn't want to change herself because of other people's opinions and gossip.
Until Ye Wentian told her, "Don't wear skirts at the base anymore."
Without any reason, just that simple sentence, she never wore a skirt again.
But now that she has the ability to protect herself, why can't she be herself?
She wants to find her own forest.
"Ranran, dinner's ready."
Gu Fei's voice came from outside. Qi Ran turned around in front of the mirror again before walking out lightly.
In the living room, Gu Fei had just hung up his apron when he turned around and saw a graceful young woman standing in front of him.
With thick black hair, a flowing white dress, flawless snow-white skin, and a rosy complexion, her shy smile was as beautiful as the soft, gentle moonlight.
"Ranran, I have completely become your captive."
Gu Fei walked up to her, raised his finger to lift a strand of her hair, and smelled it.
"If you keep tempting me like this, you'll never get rid of me."
He bent down, wrapped his arms around her legs, and lifted her up.
Qi Ran exclaimed in surprise and quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, extremely satisfied with his reaction.
A woman dresses up for the man she loves.
Nothing in the world is more gratifying than having your carefully made-up appearance appreciated by someone you like.
She cupped Gu Fei's face in her hands and said earnestly, "I won't leave you. As long as you don't leave me, we'll always be together."
Gu Fei was stunned upon hearing this.
He didn't expect Qi Ran to give him such a solemn promise.
But he will only have Yun Ruxue as his wife.
She will always be his only wife.
The next day, Qi Ran indeed took Gu Fei with her when she went out.
Gu Fei sat on the back of the motorcycle, holding her waist tightly and squeezing his head into the crook of her neck. He didn't look at the scenery along the way, only at her focused profile as she rode the motorcycle.
Qi Ran is really beautiful.
Two hours later, the motorcycle stopped at the entrance to town.
Qi Ran pulled out the car keys and was about to get out of the car when she found that Gu Fei was still holding her tightly from behind. So she patted her hand and reminded him, "We're here."
"So fast?"
He hadn't had enough of sitting yet.
After getting off the bus, he shrugged his shoulders.
The human body is strange; it gets tired from moving around too much, but it also can't sit still for too long. Like a machine, it must operate regularly.
"roar!"
Suddenly, a monster appeared out of nowhere and pounced on Gu Fei.
Before they could even get close to him, his head was chopped off.
Qi Ran sheathed her longsword and looked around warily.
Gu Fei kicked the head that had rolled to his feet, his tense tone and calm expression completely at odds as he said, "You scared me."
Qi Ran took his hand: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."
Gu Fei pulled her into his arms and said, "Then you'd better keep a close eye on me."
Qi Ran did not respond to him, her gaze fixed on the large number of monsters roaming the street, her brows slightly furrowed.
"I've been encountering A-level monsters frequently in the past month. It feels like the monsters are evolving faster, and there are fewer and fewer low-level monsters. How come there are so many low-level monsters here?"
But here...
The number of monsters far exceeded that of any other town she had visited.
Seeing Qi Ran's solemn expression, Gu Fei nodded in agreement: "The monsters are getting more and more terrifying. Someone like me, who is powerless, would definitely die as soon as I step outside without your protection."
Qi Ran found this amusing and was about to say something when she heard Gu Fei shout from behind, "Ranran, there's a clothing store over there!"
"Shh!"
Qi Ran quickly spoke up to stop her.
But it was too late.
"roar!"
Upon hearing the sound, the low-level monsters immediately snapped out of their wandering state, assumed a hunting posture, turned in their direction, and then charged forward.
The sound of banging on doors could also be heard from the surrounding shops.
The howling roars came from all directions, one after another.
"sorry."
Realizing he had caused trouble, Gu Fei quickly covered his mouth.
"fine."
Qi Ran didn't blame him. She looked up at the surroundings, then immediately grabbed his waist and used the grappling hook to fly to the rooftop.
As soon as they landed, they were surrounded by monsters.
They rushed over but found no living creatures. Puzzled, they turned around, looked around blankly, and shook their stiff heads, searching for any suspicious sounds.
Qi Ran coldly stared at the monsters, took out a specially made pistol from her holster, and fired a shot at the monster horde.
With a loud bang, a huge firework burst forth from the monster horde. The explosion and blinding light instantly attracted even more monsters.
Almost all the low-level monsters roaming the streets rushed in this direction.
"This will reduce the number of monsters in the city significantly."
Qi Ran hugged Gu Fei again and led him toward the city.
