Chapter 274

A cold autumn wind blew.

The entire forest seemed to have become much desolate, making one feel oppressed in the heart.

Li Youran walked to Kuchiki Senya's side, held his hand, and said softly, "This matter has nothing to do with you; you don't need to get involved."

"How can it have nothing to do with me?" Kuchiki Senya said, "Sister Youran, if you hadn't just saved me, then the one lying in the pool of blood right now might have been me."

Kuchiki Senya was a person who distinguished clearly between gratitude and resentment; moreover, in his view, this situation was far from something that could be described as repaying a debt of gratitude.

Li Youran smiled and said nothing.

She looked at Kuchiki Senya.

At this moment, the moonlight was clear and quiet, and the two locked eyes.

Although this was merely a momentary exchange of glances, Li Youran felt warmth.

"Sister Youran, I will do my utmost to protect you." Kuchiki Senya took a deep breath, then withdrew his gaze.

"I believe you." Li Youran gently replied.

This time, she did not refuse Kuchiki Senya's proposal.

Kuchiki Senya looked at her pretty face and added, "However, if you really cannot win, you must not force it; I will take you to retreat at the first moment."

Hearing this, Li Youran laughed, "Rest assured, even if I have to risk my life, I will not let myself (bcbb) fall into danger."

Saying this, she gently rose onto her tiptoes, extended her arms, embraced Kuchiki Senya's neck, and pressed her cherry lips onto the latter's mouth.

Like a dragonfly skimming the water, they touched and immediately separated.

Kuchiki Senya was stunned for a moment; then, Li Youran had already released her hands, and her ears had turned completely red.

"Let's go." Li Youran said softly.

Kuchiki Senya nodded, then pulled her down the stairs.

At this moment, a car had already driven into the courtyard.

A figure jumped down: "Kuchiki Senya, have you two finally finished work?"

Seeing this, Kuchiki Senya laughed cheerfully, "Hey, Strategist!"

"You're finally back; I was worried you'd been kept by those bastards." The Strategist came running over at full speed, checking Kuchiki Senya up and down, looking extremely excited.

"You two catch up first; I need to find a quiet place to heal." Lin Aoxue said to Kuchiki Senya; having spoken, she turned and went upstairs.

"I'll go accompany Lin Aoxue." Li Youran said likewise.

Kuchiki Senya glanced at the Strategist, shook his head, and said bitterly, "Look at the mess you've made."

"What do you mean by 'mess'? Our Aoxue should be jealous too." The Strategist linked her arm with Kuchiki Senya's and said.

She wore a white shirt with shorts, stepped in slippers, and looked youthful and beautiful as a whole, making one want to pinch her face hard.

"Did you come specially to back up Sister Youran?" Kuchiki Senya grinned.

He knew the Strategist was best at helping women solve problems; even in handling this matter, she was many times stronger than Kuchiki Senya.

This might be the Strategist's most attractive quality.
