After wearing the book, I attacked the villain boss

Chapter 144, Attempt to be cute and pass the level

After Chu Yuan left, Si Xu changed his sitting position and looked at Jiang Ran.

The little girl rested her chin with one hand, she didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't notice his gaze.

Si Xu cleared his throat: "Ahem."

Jiang Ran still didn't look at him.

Si Xu: "..."

He called her expressionlessly: "Jiang Ran."

"Huh?" Like a frightened rabbit, she suddenly turned her head to look at him, blinking her eyes, "What's wrong, Si Xu?"

Calling people back to God, Si Xu suddenly didn't know what to say.

He pursed his lips: "Why investigate that person?"

Si Nian... Just hearing this name made him uncomfortable.

"I don't know." Jiang Ran thought for a long time, "I just think that person is very important—a woman's intuition."

Si Xu temporarily let go of this question, and asked again: "Aren't you going to let Chu Yuan go back to Xiling Base?"

"..." When he asked, Jiang Ran remembered that Chu Yuan belonged to him.

She arranged Chu Yuan's next work at will, without asking his immediate superior's opinion.

The girl blinked her eyes and opened her hands: "Si Xu, hug~"

Attempt to smuggle through.

There was a slight curvature at the corner of his mouth, and the man leaned over to pick her up and put her on his lap, but he didn't intend to just let her go: "Jiang Ran, what do you want?"

what do you want?
This time, she didn't avoid his question, but looked straight into his eyes and said word by word, "I want the Xiling base, Si Xu."

He once said that he would give her back the ordinary but warm world she likes.

But as long as the Xiling base is still in the hands of the Shen family, as long as some people are still alive, he probably will never be able to calm down and realize her wish.

That being the case, how about she come and hold the Xiling base in her hands.

"I want the Xiling base." She repeated, "Si Xu, can you help me? I want the Xiling base."

"Oh." Without asking her why she was suddenly interested in the base, Si Xu smiled slightly, "Okay - if you want, I will ask Shen Lang to give you the Xiling base."

Jiang Ran: "..." It's really straightforward.

"Alright." She smiled and rubbed his cheek, "Let's go back and teach those ignorant people a good lesson."

The Shen family wanted to get rid of Si Xu and hold all the power of the base in their hands, so she wouldn't let them do what they wanted.

To her, the struggle for power and profit is just a game, and it depends on who can have the last laugh.

……

Jiang Ran's leg was not seriously injured, and he would be able to move on the ground soon.

The girls were sitting under the eaves of the temporary base basking in the sun, listening to the team members who were packing their luggage whispering about what had happened in the past two days.

"I didn't expect Team Chu to be so pessimistic... It seems that Team Chu really likes his fiancée."

"Hey, I don't know if the captain will come back... you say, he won't die for love..."

"Bah, bah, bah! Nonsense! Our captain will not die for a woman!"

"But now he has disappeared because of a woman."

Missing?Thinking that he hadn't seen Chu Yuan for several days, Jiang Ran interrupted their discussion: "Team Chu is missing?"

There was no defense against Jiang Ran, and several team members stopped in front of Jiang Ran with their heads raised.

"Well, the captain disappeared last night." One of them said, "After we found out today, Professor Si asked us to search many places, but we couldn't find it."

"Professor Si said that the captain was hit by Sister Qi's death and needs to calm down..."

"I don't know where the captain went and when he will come back."

Jiang Ran: "..." She was still thinking about how to stop the mouths of these team members so that they would not talk about Chu Yuan at the base.

Didn't expect it to be possible to play like this?
"Professor Si is back!"

I don't know who shouted, and the few people standing in front of Jiang Ran disappeared in an instant.

"Professor Si, have you found the captain?"

"Captain, is he really..."

With a cold face, the man casually threw the things he was carrying on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "There's no need to continue looking."

The players surrounding him looked down at the ground.

"Ah, it's the captain's uniform belt... Could it be that the captain really..."

"I found this in the river to the north, you guys clean it up." After Si Xu finished speaking, he walked through the crowd, walked up to Jiang Ran, picked him up, and prepared to go back to the room.

"Captain, did you really die for love?"

"Whoa, the captain doesn't want us anymore!"

"..."

Hearing howling ghosts and wolves outside, Jiang Ran: "..." What's the matter with suddenly feeling guilty?

"The man has already left." Si Xu said after putting the man on the bed, "Pack up our things, and we will head back to the Xiling base."

"You...why are you suddenly so active..."

"Don't you want the Xiling base?" Si Xu was eager to try, "I'll go back and kill Shen Lang and give you the Xiling base."

Jiang Ran: "..."

I couldn't help laughing.

"It's me who wants the Xiling base, why are you more impatient than me?"

"You've been in a bad mood these days." Si Xu looked at her, pinched a strand of her hair behind her ear with his fingers, and squeezed her earlobe, "Gu Yunqing said that girls will be very happy when they receive gifts."

Oh, I haven't heard the sentence "Gu Yunqing said..." for a long time, Jiang Ran softened her heart, leaned on his shoulder, and said softly, "Si Xu, am I useless?"

She was the one who brought Qi Yao out of the base, and she was also the one who brought Qi Yao into Beihe Laboratory, and then she caused her to lose her life.

"Jiang Ran."

He likes to pinch her ears these two days, the soft and delicate touch makes him... a little fond of it.

"She died because she was too weak and has nothing to do with you."

He used very straightforward terms and said what sounded cruel.

"Jiang Ran, in this kind of world, no one has to protect anyone—if you can't protect yourself, you don't need to rely on others."

"..."

"Remember, you are not a god, and it is impossible to save everyone."

Yes, she is not a god, and she has to rely on him for protection, so what qualifications does she have to talk about protecting others.

"I shouldn't have brought her out..." she buzzed, "Let her stay at the base, maybe..."

"Let her stay at the base, and the one who will die will be Chu Yuan."

Without Qi Yao, those zombies would break through the glass in the utility room, and Chu Yuan and those two powerless people with no combat power would become their food.

"The person who died was Chu Yuan. You will still blame yourself like you are now—why didn't I bring more people in? Why wasn't I strong enough? Why didn't I escape from that stupid snake's nest earlier?"

Listening to his series of questions, Jiang Ran frowned and muttered: "Okay, I know what you want to say."

"Jiang Ran, Qi Yao's death has nothing to do with you, you don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself."

She can indeed comfort herself like this, but...

"Of course, self-blame can make a person stronger." Si Xu patted the back of her head lightly, "Jiang Ran, you can blame yourself and become depressed from now on, or you can make yourself stronger and stronger."

"Strong enough to be like you, enough to protect everyone?"

Si Xu was silent for a moment, and with the good qualities of honesty and trustworthiness, he said, "With your current state, it is a bit difficult to become as strong as me."

Jiang Ran: "..."
