Chapter 239: Taste

Lu Yunze turned around and directly bumped into a soft, fragrant paradise.

More surprisingly, he had stumbled right into Jiang Sui’s ample chest.

Tonight’s battle had already exhausted him. Now, upon contacting such softness, the chemical reaction instantly blanked his mind, and his consciousness nearly sank into the deep valley.

“Young Master?”

Only when the girl’s voice sounded again did Lu Yunze come back to himself, struggling to move his head from her chest. He coughed twice.

“Are you all right, Young Master?”

“I’m fine. I’m good.”

“It’s so late, why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Jiang Sui smirked slightly.

“Because I was really worried about you, Young Master.”

With that, she entered the room first.

“There was so much commotion outside tonight. A lot of people inside were afraid it would affect them.”

“Really? I didn’t see anyone…”

“Now that it’s over, they can sleep peacefully.”

“Oh, I see.”

Jiang Sui stopped and turned to look at Lu Yunze, who stood hesitantly at the door. A hint of mockery flickered in her pale violet eyes.

“If you want to come in, just come in. It’s not like you’ve never entered my place before.”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“I mean my bedroom. What did you think I meant?”

She had tricked him again.

But Lu Yunze wasn’t angry. In fact, he felt much lighter in mood.

After going through a life-and-death battle, it was good to see Jiang Sui alive and kicking.

The weather had cooled down, so Jiang Sui had already changed into long-sleeved pajamas.

She looked even more beautiful now than during the day, having just taken a shower.

Her skin was fair and glowing; her wet hair hung loosely behind her head.

That didn’t stop her full chest from lifting her clothes high, forming majestic peaks.

In the quiet night, only Lu Yunze and Jiang Sui were in the girl’s private room.

Even the desk lamp cast a particularly soft light.

Seeing that Lu Yunze was still dazed after entering, Jiang Sui sat on the edge of the bed and crossed her legs.

She gently patted her thigh.

“Young Master, don’t you want to come lie down for a while?”

“This… is it okay?”

Lu Yunze was still hesitant.

“You just took a shower, and I’m drenched in sweat. I’d get you dirty.”

“Young Master is worried about something like that?”

Jiang Sui couldn’t help but laugh.

“I wouldn’t mind being dirtied by you, you know.”

A year ago, Lu Yunze would have continued to refuse.

But now that she had said that, he no longer held back.

He climbed onto the bed, lay down, and rested his head on the girl’s soft thighs.

In his field of vision were a pair of eyes full of laughter and tenderness.

“Since the timing is so perfect, I’d like to give Young Master an ear cleaning.”

“Hmm… I can only see half the sky. It’s really comfortable.”

“Young Master, can you turn this way?”

Jiang Sui said, looking down.

Lu Yunze thought for a moment, then decisively rolled over to face outward, looking at the room’s door.

He heard Jiang Sui click her tongue softly, but he chose to ignore it.

He couldn’t remember if he had ever had his ears cleaned as a child.

This was, in fact, his first time.

So he was very nervous.

His fingers even unconsciously grabbed the soft flesh of the girl’s thigh.

Even through her pajama pants, he could feel the wonderful texture, making his fingers twitch slightly.

He had expected some pain, but there was none.

Jiang Sui’s movements were extremely gentle.

Apart from a little tickling, there was almost no discomfort.

Lying on the girl’s lap and receiving ear cleaning, Lu Yunze felt like he was in heaven.

After being exhausted all night, coming back and lying on a girl’s legs was truly blissful.

“Speaking of which, I haven’t asked you, Young Master, why you sneaked into my room.”

Jiang Sui paused in her movements for a moment, then continued.

“Were you worried about me going out and running into danger?”

“I… haha, how could that be? Didn’t I say I was just…”

“Hiss—”

The sudden tickle made Lu Yunze shudder in pleasure.

“What if I said I was just checking for suspicious targets, would you believe me?”

“I surrender. I was worried about you.”

“Hehe, it’s too naive of you to think you could hide your little thoughts from me.”

Lu Yunze sighed inwardly.

He really couldn’t outplay her.

A moment of stillness passed.

Then Jiang Sui spoke again.

“Young Master, if one day the people around you became your enemies, what would you think?”

“Why ask that all of a sudden?”

“No reason. I just thought of it because of your little thoughts.”

After all, the people around you now, except for me, will all be enemies in the future.

The plan had been going on for so long.

Jiang Sui felt that Lu Yunze had changed enough. It was time to test his thoughts.

While Jiang Sui’s mind churned, the silent Lu Yunze was also thinking rapidly.

She said the people around me…

Could she be hinting at herself?

Lu Yunze wasn’t sure why Jiang Sui would think that.

Maybe she was scared by tonight’s events?

If one day, Jiang Sui was set up by someone else and forced to stand against him…

If that day really came, what would happen?

Lu Yunze let out a soft laugh.

“Is it funny?”

Jiang Sui tilted her head to look at him.

Finishing one ear, Lu Yunze rolled over onto his back and reached out to gently stroke her cheek.

“Of course it’s funny. Why worry about something like that?”

Jiang Sui was slightly stunned.

Then, like a little animal, she burrowed affectionately into his palm.

“Didn’t I say I’d protect you?”

“Then I clearly understand Young Master’s answer.”

With that, she leaned down and gently licked the sweat off his cheek.

It was salty.

But there was no taste of a lie.

Lu Yunze thought she understood his meaning and was about to get up, but Jiang Sui pressed him back down.

“Not yet. There’s still the other ear.”

She turned him over so he was lying on his side facing her.

Lu Yunze buried his face again in the fabric of the girl’s abdomen.

That complex, fragrant aroma invaded his nostrils, almost making him unable to breathe.

The other ear was also cleaned under Jiang Sui’s meticulous care.

When Lu Yunze sat up, he felt the whole world had become clearer.

“That’s amazing. I never thought ear cleaning could be so comfortable.”

“If Young Master ever wants it, you can come to me anytime.”

“After all, I’ve been practicing for a long time.”

“You’ve done it for others before?”

“I practiced alone.”

Jiang Sui covered her mouth and giggled.

She thought to herself, cats don’t count as people.

Lu Yunze believed her.

He stood up to leave.

But before he could take a step, Jiang Sui grabbed his hand.

“Is there something else?”

“Young Master is satisfied now.”

“But what about me?”

An ambiguous tint had crept into Jiang Sui’s eyes.

Lu Yunze immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

“Young Master, playing dumb isn’t something a good kid does.”

“Then… is there something you want to buy? Or should I make you something to eat?”

Jiang Sui propped herself up on the bed, leaning back slightly.

“I’m a little hungry right now.”

“Then I’ll order takeout…”

“No.”

“I’m starving. If Young Master leaves this room, I’ll starve to death.”

Lu Yunze froze in place.

The door was right in front of him, but he couldn’t take a single step.

Seeming dissatisfied with his statue-like reaction, Jiang Sui got up and hugged him from behind.

Her soft, full body gently pressed against his back.

She picked up a strand of her hair and placed it under his nose.

“How does Young Master find this scent?”

“Very fragrant.”

“Doesn’t Young Master like big things?”

“I do.”

“What if we combine big and fragrant? What would Young Master think?”

What would it be like?

Lu Yunze didn’t dare to think.

The one clinging to his back now was no longer the cute little maid.

But a beast as fierce as a wolf.

He knew he couldn’t escape anymore.

And after smelling that strand of hair, he felt there was no need to run.

Lu Yunze turned around, took her hand, and let her lead him where she wanted.

After the storm subsided.

Lu Yunze and Jiang Sui walked out of the room together.

The former was still dazed and went home after saying goodbye.

The latter went into the bathroom, turned on the hot water, and began washing her hair and upper body.

Standing in front of the mirror, Jiang Sui subconsciously touched her now redder lips with her finger.

Then she gradually moved it down, stopping at her throat.

To be honest, the taste wasn’t good.

And it was a bit spicy on the throat, sticky, more uncomfortable than eating Indian paste.

But this was a delicacy full of Lu Yunze’s spiritual and physical nutrition.

Since it was given by Lu Yunze, she could overlook these flaws.

She stuck out her tongue, licked her lips lightly, and murmured to herself:

“I want… more.”

After washing, she dried her hair.

Humming a little tune, Jiang Sui returned to her room to sleep.

The next day.

The rising sun began to shine.

Donghai City, which had been in turmoil all night, came back to life.

As Lu Yunze was eating his breakfast toast, he suddenly heard a familiar voice outside.

“Brother Lu, I’m back!”

Luo Yao ran in from outside.

“You were discharged that quickly?”

“I wasn’t really injured. It’s only Second Brother who was hurt badly and needs to stay in the hospital for a while.”

“Then I hope he gets well soon.”

Lu Yunze said, continuing to eat his breakfast.

Luo Yao seemed surprised that the topic ended so quickly. She pouted unhappily and sat down opposite Lu Yunze.

“Brother Lu, did you miss me?”

“Didn’t we only not see each other for one night?”

“Hmph, Brother Lu, hmph.”

Lu Yunze thought to himself, doesn’t this happen every day? What’s so strange about it?

“Brother Lu doesn’t seem very energetic.”

Luo Yao noticed he was eating more breakfast than usual.

Lu Yunze stammered for a moment.

“Ah, well…”

“A lot happened last night. It’s easy to get tired.”

“Mm, true.”

Luo Yao nodded.

“I guess Brother Lu went straight to sleep when he got back. It’s normal you didn’t think of me.”
