13. Zhan Ye Climbs the Window
“Anse won’t do that.”
“Why are you so certain?”
The gentle stroking on her head calmed Su Tang’s uneasy heart slightly.
Sensing the little Guide’s mood trending toward calm, Mo Xiao moved his hand away from the woman’s head.
It was his first time doing this kind of action. He didn’t feel anything when covering that fluffy head, but now that he moved away, he felt somewhat uncomfortable, so he simply sat back in his chair.
“Anse has a somewhat strange personality. He doesn’t have that high a loyalty to the White Tower’s high command.”
“Just based on this point, you believe he won’t upload my report to the White Tower?”
Such a conclusion seemed a bit too arbitrary.
Seeing that the little Guide in front of him seemed dissatisfied with the answer he gave and secretly glanced at him, Mo Xiao was amused. He pulled over a chair from the side and patted it, signaling the little Guide to sit on it.
“Of course, it’s not just this point.”
Su Tang sat down in front of the man. The distance between the two chairs seemed a bit close, especially since Mo Xiao was turned sideways facing her direction. The natural difference brought by his physique was laid out before her eyes. At this moment, the man seemed to be leaning slightly toward her with an intention to comfort.
From this angle, it looked as if the man’s broad chest was about to accommodate her pouncing over.
Su Tang couldn’t help but look away, restraining herself from thinking in that direction.
“Last night, I went to the Medical Department.”
Speaking of this, the man seemed to pause and looked at her.
“Zhan Ye was also there.”
Oh, so my initial guess about the two fighting was correct.
The little Guide’s gaze fixed on the bandages on his body again; it was easy to guess what she was thinking.
Mo Xiao turned his body and sat back facing the desk, avoiding the little Guide’s probing gaze.
“The friendship between the captains of the White Tower squads is still quite deep. Zhan Ye and I went there personally; that guy will give us this face.”
Phew!
That’s really great.
The burden that had suppressed her all morning was completely lifted because of the man’s words. Su Tang felt much more relaxed, and the smile on her face increased.
“Thank you, Captain~”
The little Guide’s voice was sweet. Perhaps because her mood was excellent right now, her voice inexplicably carried a bit of coquettishness.
Mo Xiao was moved to curve his lips slightly.
“However, Captain…”
What?
Before Mo Xiao could look up, the sweet scent unique to the little Guide instantly hit his nose. Sensing that the little Guide was very close to him at this moment—even the heat source by his ear was so close that he only needed to turn his head to press tightly against it.
Mo Xiao couldn’t stop his Adam’s apple from rolling.
“How did you and Zhan Ye start fighting in the Medical Department?”
She figured it out now. The heavy smell of disinfectant in the Medical Department turned out to be for suppressing the traces of the fight between these two top-quality Sentinels.
The girl’s voice was full of the implication of watching a drama. She’s really completely relaxed now, even able to joke about me.
But Mo Xiao didn’t dislike this feeling. On the contrary, the waves of pleasure coming from his heart made him feel comfortable.
He didn’t speak, just turned his head steadily like that. The distance between the two was indeed as close as he imagined. Just as he turned his head, the girl’s soft hair brushed past his cheek, and her weak breath sprayed on his face, bringing waves of tingling sensation.
He watched as the girl’s gaze wavered bit by bit under his stare, and then, nearly in defeat, she looked away first, took a few steps back, and opened the distance from him.
“Well, I didn’t say anything just now. How could our wise and mighty Captain Mo do such a violation…”
“That person has a foul mouth.”
What?
Su Tang hadn’t finished speaking when she heard the explanation from the “wise and mighty Captain Mo” she spoke of, and she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
So, he admitted it?
“Do you have other arrangements today?”
“No. What about you, Captain Mo? Are you going to assign me tasks?”
Su Tang was in a great mood, and getting along with Mo Xiao became more and more natural.
“Mn.”
Really going to assign me tasks? My spiritual power hasn’t recovered yet; I count as a sick patient.
She was just being polite with him just now. This boss Mo “Skinner” really wasn’t polite.
Watching the girl’s brightly smiling face instantly dim down, Mo Xiao chuckled in his heart.
“Your task now is to go back to the dormitory and rest well.”
“Can you do it? Do you need me to send someone to take you back?”
His current image wasn’t suitable for appearing in front of those pups; otherwise, those little rascals would definitely run wild.
The originally downcast face instantly became bright again. Su Tang nodded heavily to Mo Xiao.
“Guaranteed to complete the mission! No need for anyone to send me; I know the way. Captain Mo, I’m leaving now.”
“Oh, right. Wish your injuries a speedy recovery~”
Before leaving, she left such a playful remark.
Watching the girl’s back as she left, Mo Xiao couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Turning his head to look at the sunlight outside the window, the icy blue in his eyes became increasingly gentle.
…
Su Tang was in a very good mood, not only because the matter troubling her all morning was resolved but also because she glimpsed Mo Xiao’s attitude toward her.
She wasn’t stupid; of course, she could see Mo Xiao’s special treatment of her. Just this point alone was enough to make her happy—not because she enjoyed the feeling, but because she knew Mo Xiao would become the most stable chip in her hand.
With this chip, she could proceed to the next step with more peace of mind.
Back in her room, Su Tang threw herself onto the bed. The environment here was much better than the dark little room receiving no sunlight where she first stayed.
The clean, soft bed absorbed the blessings of sunlight. Su Tang buried herself in it and took a deep breath, her whole body relaxing completely.
“Yo, little beauty is sleeping in?”
It was originally such a beautiful day, but someone just had to disrupt the rhythm of her day.
Zhan Ye.
She would never mistake this voice.
Moreover, only this guy dared to climb her window unscrupulously.
Su Tang sighed a long, leisurely sigh, then resigned herself to sitting up from the bed and looking toward her windowsill.
“Climbing a Guide’s windowsill and entering a Guide’s private space without permission—if I go to the White Tower to report you, how many points would you have to pay?”
Zhan Ye jumped down lazily from the balcony, a heavy scent of disinfectant hitting her face.
Su Tang’s gaze circled the exposed skin on his body. Almost every visible part was covered with bandages. It seemed the battle between him and Mo Xiao yesterday was extremely intense.
