Chapter 287: Something Seems Off

Kuchiki Senya stopped chewing: "What seems off?"

"No, it's nothing, I was just talking at random." Ge Si Lin lowered his head and continued eating.

He increasingly felt that Kuchiki Senya seemed to be deliberately avoiding his gaze.

Although Ge Si Lin did not know exactly what Kuchiki Senya was hiding from him, he had keenly noticed certain details.

Ge Ge Silin then said: "Brother, you have a great figure. You should take care of your health and not skip exercise just because you're young."

Kuchiki Senya nearly spat out a mouthful of rice soup: "My little Princess, when you say that, are you hinting that I should exercise?"

"Geez, who would hint at you?" Ge Ge Silin said, her pretty face flushing red.

This girl's skin was rather thin, to actually blush from shyness.

However, Kuchiki Senya showed not a shred of gentlemanly grace, and instead laughed heartily: "Ge Ge Silin, you're getting cuter and cuter 630, haha."

He truly couldn't hold it in.

Ge Ge Silin gave Kuchiki Senya a reproachful glare, then said: "Eat up, it'll get cold soon."

Kuchiki Senya grinned: "Lolita's cooking is amazing, this is the first time I've ever had such delicious steak."

He was truly starving, and couldn't be bothered with male-female propriety; he picked up the knife and fork, polished off a steak in two or three bites, then buried his head and started wolfing it down.

For some reason, seeing Kuchiki Senya in such a disheveled state in this setting stirred an inexplicable sense of closeness in Ge Ge Silin — perhaps, in her eyes, Kuchiki Senya was the most reliable person in the world, and even when he occasionally did something foolish, it was forgivable.

Ge Si Lin sipped the red wine in his glass, looked at Kuchiki Senya, and a faint shadow seemed to hang between his brows.

Lolita, however, saw through Ge Si Lin's worry, and said with a slight smile: "I believe Kuchiki Senya will definitely handle this matter well. I'd much rather see him standing at the pinnacle of the dark world, becoming the guardian deity in the hearts of all its members. Besides, I've known him so long — I understand his character very well."

Lolita's eye was sharp; she naturally saw that deep within Ge Si Lin's heart lay an intense worry.

"I hope you're right." After saying that, Ge Si Lin pressed his lips together and drained the red wine in his glass.

Kuchiki Senya single-handedly swept clean an entire plate of steak, then let out a satisfied burp.

This fellow rubbed his belly and said: "Lolita, your cooking is really good. Once my injuries have healed, I'll come back to mooch meals off you."

Lolita smiled faintly, then looked toward Ge Si Lin, a questioning look in her eyes.

"If you can stay alive and well until then, you're naturally welcome to visit often. However, you need to rest now." Ge Si Lin glanced at Kuchiki Senya: "If you dare to break into Wang Gong on your own, I'll knock you out on the spot and dump you in the trash can at the foot of the mountain."
