Chapter 25, Short Memory

Hearing that someone was looking for Si Xu vaguely, Jiang Ran didn't want to disturb him, but squatting naked in the bathroom like this was not an option. After a moment of hesitation, she still called him out.

After waiting for a few seconds, there was a knock on the bathroom door.

Just as Jiang Ran was about to speak, the door opened, and a gust of cold air swept in, freezing her body in place.

Etc., etc!This guy!Straight in!
The girl realized it later, and before she had time to scream, Si Xu unfolded the blanket in his hand and wrapped her completely.

He picked her up and walked out of the bathroom.

Jiang Ran, who was wrapped in a cicada chrysalis, tried to wriggle her body, poking her head out from under the blanket: "Si Xu, my pajamas..."

"I didn't find it." Tucking the person under the quilt, Si Xu moved to her side, hugged her as usual, and rubbed against the crook of her neck, "It's so dark, I'll look for it tomorrow."

"But..." I'll look for it tomorrow, so isn't she going to sleep all night wrapped in a blanket like this?If the blanket was accidentally kicked away in the middle of the night... After imagining the scene, Jiang Ran was silent for a while.

Not realizing the girl's distress, Si Xu quickly fell asleep holding the hand warmer.

……

The next day, Jiang Ran woke up slowly from sleep, opened his eyes and looked into the light brown pupils of the young man.She yawned and whispered, "Good morning, Si Xu."

"Hmm..." The young man had a weird expression on his face, and he responded without moving.

Well, it's so close, Si Xu's skin is so good, and his facial features are also good-looking...Looking down, well, the neckline and collarbone are very sexy...huh?Jiang Ran was stunned, and tried to move his body slightly.

"It seems that I'm fully awake." The smile in Taohua's eyes deepened, and Si Xu said innocently, "Because you refused to let go of me, so I didn't even go with the team to collect supplies."

"Ah?" Jiang Ran let go of his arms around his waist without moving his expression, and moved back carefully, "Sorry, I, I don't sleep well..."

"Your pajamas." Before she could move it away, Si Xu pulled out a lady's pajamas from nowhere, "I found it."

Jiang Ran: "..." He did it on purpose!He definitely did it on purpose!asshole!
The girl who was teased blushed and smashed her pajamas onto the young man's beautiful face.

Si Xu hummed and tore off the clothes that covered his face. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Jiang Ran going to the bathroom wrapped in a blanket.

The man got up leisurely, folded her pajamas neatly and put them beside the pillow.

He went outside the bathroom and knocked on the door: "Jiang Ran, I'll put the pajamas next to the pillow, don't throw them around next time."

His cheeks were about to burn, Jiang Ran yelled: "Got it!"

Through the door, she heard Si Xu chuckle lightly, full of joy.

Jiang Ran: "..." That guy definitely did it on purpose!How could she think he was stupid and sweet!He is the big boss of the villain!Very bad!

……

Gu Yunqing led the team into the city, and because Si Xu was there, there was not a single supernatural being left in the base except for a few ordinary people from Luo Rui's team.

There were steamed buns and porridge left in the kitchen, and Jiang Ran took them back to his room after heating them up.

"Jiang Ranran." As soon as she went up to the second floor, someone called her from behind, with a resentful tone, not concealing her hatred.

He knew who it was just by hearing the voice, so Jiang Ran pretended not to hear it and continued walking.

"Jiang Ranran!" The man was not going to let her go, he chased up the stairs a few steps, and stood in front of her, "Where are you going?"

In fact, Jiang Ran didn't have much feeling for Jiang Yu - she didn't like him, but she didn't hate him either, but if he kept entangled like this, she would feel bored.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran looked up at him, and said coldly: "It seems that breaking an arm is not enough to make you remember?"

Mentioning his broken limb, Jiang Yu's arm in front of Jiang Ran trembled slightly, and subconsciously retracted it.

"Jiang Ranran, you are very proud now!" Feeling ashamed of his cowardice for a moment, Jiang Yu bluffed and said harshly, "When that man gets tired, I'll see what you will do next!"

"That's my business too, it has nothing to do with you." After Jiang Ran finished speaking, she raised her chin slightly and walked around Jiang Yu to the room.

Looking at the girl's slender back, Jiang Yu clenched his fists, wishing he could rush up and tear her into pieces.

He wanted to do this very much, but he also knew that he couldn't, at least not right now.

Just like what Zhou Jian said, Jiang Ranran is now favored by that man. If that dual-line power user angers him, their entire team will suffer.

It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

He can wait, wait until that man is completely bored, wait until Jiang Ranran is abandoned, he must let her know what it means not to live, not to die!
……

To be honest, Jiang Ran was very puzzled by Jiang Yu's hatred.

He will be taught a lesson because he came to tease her first, and it was Si Xu who broke his arm, but he vented all his grievances on her alone, which is really inexplicable.

"A bullying dog, hmph."

Hearing Jiang Ran's broken thoughts, Si Xu, who was drinking porridge quietly, looked up at her: "Someone bullied you?"

I always felt that Jiang Yu would not let it go, Jiang Ran told the truth: "I met Jiang Yu in the corridor—the guy whose arm was broken by you."

"Oh?" It was the first time that Si Xu met someone who dared to continue to make mistakes after being taught by him, and Si Xu became interested, "His arm has grown?"

How can a broken arm grow back?Jiang Ran said helplessly, "No."

The interest disappeared in an instant, and Si Xu said: "What did he do?" Since the arm didn't grow well, he broke the other one as well.

"Didn't dare to do anything, after all, I have your backing now!" Jiang Ran flattered invisibly, "He just barks at me twice, and I don't bother to talk to him."

Si Xu was puzzled: "Wow?"

Amused by his serious questioning, Jiang Ran gave him the last bun and replied, "Don't imitate it, that's not a good word."

"That's it."

"Leave him alone, let's eat first."

Si Xu, who was [-]% full, stared at the extra buns in the bowl, hesitated for a moment, and took a bite.

……

Knowing that the team would not be back at noon, Jiang Ran obtained Si Xu's consent and prepared a few simple dishes with the inventory he dug out.

Remembering that there were other people in the base, and they were teammates before, Jiang Ran knocked on the door of one of the rooms: "I'm going to cook at noon, do you want to go together?"

"No need." The girl said quietly without raising her head, "Just serve your master well, we dare not eat what you cook, maybe..."

The girl didn't finish her mocking words, when she looked up, she found that there was no one at the door.

Jiang Ran's brisk voice came from the corridor: "Si Xu, I just asked other people, and they don't eat with us."

"Yeah." The man's voice was gentle, "There is no hot water in the kitchen, so I washed the dishes for you."

"I can burn it." Jiang Ran smiled, "You don't need your help, you just go and sit over there - watch me show you my skills!"

"..."

The girl who didn't know that Jiang Ran only heard her first answer was very puzzled: After being ridiculed by her, why could Jiang Ranran talk and laugh with that man shamelessly?
The girl and her roommate looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

But it didn't take long for them to stop wondering.

The smell of braised pork ribs wafted from downstairs and filled the whole room.

Stomach growled uncontrollably.

The roommate took out a piece of bread, took a bite, and said vaguely, "I would have promised Jiang Ranran if I knew it..."

"Are you crazy?" The girl was also disturbed by the scent, but she still put on a nonchalant attitude, "If Zhou Jian finds out that we have dinner with Jiang Ranran, don't you think she'll pick our skin off!"

"..."

"Besides, Jiang Ranran did such an exaggerated thing to Jiang Yu, I feel disgusted when I look at her, so I don't want to eat with her."

"……Okay, I get it now."

……

Not knowing that the two upstairs were discussing her, Jiang Ran made a braised pork ribs, fried a plate of shredded potatoes, and brought them out confidently.

"Qiang Qiang! Is it better than the boys in your team?" The girl put down the dishes, wagging her tail as if asking for credit, waiting for praise.

Under Jiang Ran's expectant eyes, Si Xu picked up a piece. The ribs were mellow in color and the soup was thick. After one bite, the soup spread between his lips and teeth with a pure but not greasy fragrance.

After eating a piece slowly, Si Xu looked at Jiang Ran unexpectedly and gave affirmation: "Well, it's delicious."

"Hey~" After being praised, especially by Si Xu, Jiang Ran couldn't restrain the joy in his heart, his almond eyes curved, "Some condiments are missing, otherwise it would be more delicious!"

Si Xu didn't have any requirements for food, and the only thing he knew about Jiang Ran's dishes was that "the taste was good", but seeing the girl so happy, he took advantage of the opportunity to give a few more compliments.

"Ah, that's right." Jiang Ran recalled what he remembered when he was chopping ribs just now, and asked curiously, "Si Xu, you are a supernatural being, why do you still use a knife?"

"Knife?" Si Xu pondered for a moment, then said, "Probably because... it feels more real?"

"what?"

"Compared with abilities, using a knife makes me feel more real." The feeling of a sharp blade cutting into the body brings him more pleasure than killing with any ability.

Without going into the realism of what he said, Jiang Ran stated his purpose: "Can I learn it?"

"Huh?" Si Xu rarely showed a surprised expression, "Learn to kill?"

"No." Jiang Ran explained, "I just think that you are so powerful, I can't hold you back, even if it's just a simple self-defense technique—at least, I hope I can protect myself."

"...As long as you stay by my side, it is the best self-protection."

Is this a rejection?

Being rejected by Si Xu for the first time, Jiang Ran didn't dare to say it a second time, and replied sullenly, "Oh."

……

After running with the team for a day, when he returned to the base in the evening, He Ru felt that his feet were going to be worn out.

The girl sat on the sofa, rubbing her sore ankle.

It is worthy of being a supernatural team trained by a large base. Whether it is the speed of collecting materials or the professionalism of dealing with zombies, her previous team is completely incomparable.

The only thing that made her unable to adapt - once those supernatural beings entered the working state, there was no time to take care of other things - she passively followed them to three shopping malls and five pharmacies, her heels were all worn out, and no one came Care about her.

The girl felt a little resentment in her heart: In the previous team, although those men could do whatever they wanted to her, but usually as long as she snorted, someone would immediately come over to care about her situation.

What a bunch of incomprehensible stinky men.

Thinking about it, I saw Jiang Ran coming down the stairs.

Si Xu didn't go out with them today, he must have been hanging out with Jiang Ran in the room all day.
