Chapter 144 Cai Er is fanning the flames

"Pfft-"

Hearing Chen Ying'er's laughter coming from behind, Yue Mingnan was also quite embarrassed to be witnessed by the other party. He looked at Chen Ying'er unhappily and said angrily: "Cai'er didn't even invite you, why are you laughing?"

Chen Ying'er couldn't laugh anymore.

"Humph, if the captain hadn't looked embarrassed just now, I would have served the captain with the deputy captain tonight."

The old driver Ji Yuemingnan liked to tell these jokes all day long. Chen Ying'er knew it, but Cai'er, who rarely heard these dirty words from the other party, didn't know it.

"Then Nan Nan, you should come over."

Cai'er opened the door and stuck her head out to greet Yue Mingnan, without missing the depressed Chen Ying'er, "Ying'er, you can come over too..."

However, before Cai'er could finish her words, Xingyuan pulled her back into the room, and the open door was slammed shut.

Only Yue Mingnan and Chen Ying'er were left standing in the corridor, looking at each other, having not yet recovered from Cai'er's words.

"How do I feel..."

Yue Mingnan looked at Chen Ying'er, hesitated for a while and said, "You seem to have a chance? The deputy head doesn't seem to mind you at all... uh... how do you put it?"

"Do you mind if I become the third party?"

This is too harsh to hear, Sakura sister...

Yue Mingnan twitched his lips and scratched his head in embarrassment, "You can't say that, Ying'er."

Fortunately, Li Xin and Wang Yuanyuan were taking a bath in the hotel's bathhouse at the time, otherwise things would have been very serious.

"Did I said wrong thing?"

Chen Ying'er pursed her lips, "Besides, compared to me, you should have a better chance, right, Nan Nan?"

Yue Mingnan was confused. "Why are you suddenly dragging me into this? You know me. I am usually very good at talking. If the leader really asked me to come over, I would be scared away."

Chen Ying'er didn't say anything.

The reason why she felt this way was that Yue Mingnan was the one who talked to Xingyuan the most times in the team except Cai'er.

As for Chen Ying'er herself...Xingyuan basically had no communication with her unless it was necessary.

However, Chen Ying'er didn't say anything, which made Yue Mingnan misunderstand. She followed Chen Ying'er's line of sight and looked down at her chest. Her face immediately turned red. She covered her chest and asked stutteringly, "Ying'er, you even know this?"

……

"Cai Er, how can I be the leader if you are like this..."

Xingyuan, sitting on the sofa in the room, watched Cai'er walk over to close the window. After setting up a barrier to block prying eyes, she also took off the veil and scarf that covered her face.

Then, in front of Xingyuan, she changed out of her tight assassin combat uniform and put on a loose long skirt. Then she leaned on Xingyuan and said in a very low voice, "I'm sorry."

After confessing to Cai'er that he had known that she had lost her sense of taste for a long time, Xingyuan also understood the reason why Cai'er did this.

"Are you so willing to give me to someone else?"

Xingyuan scratched Caier's nose, and there was some depressed emotion in his words.

Cai'er's behavior not only made the relationship between him and other team members somewhat ambiguous, but also destroyed the prestige that he had worked so hard to establish as the team leader.

"Of course I can't bear to let you go." Ever since what happened last time, Cai'er no longer hid her feelings for Xingyuan and became much more frank. "It's just that I can't stay with you for that long. I'm afraid you'll fall too deeply in love and be miserable when you're alone in the future. It just so happens that Chen Ying'er likes you too..."

"What about Yue Mingnan?" Xingyuan felt his head getting more and more numb.

"Didn't she come to see me?"

Cai Er blinked, as if she had thought of something, "Xingyuan, are you jealous?"

Xingyuan: “…”

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

Xingyuan shook his head, hugged Cai'er tightly and said: "You have to have faith in us, a mere reincarnation..."

Before he could finish his words, Xingyuan felt the silver necklace around his neck starting to get hot.

"I will definitely accompany you through the test of reincarnation inheritance, no matter what method I use."

Xingyuan actually knew a way to allow Caier to become the owner of the Samsara Spirit Furnace and the Samsara Sword in one step, but the risk would be quite high. And before that, Xingyuan had to lead his demon hunting team to win the championship reward of this team competition.

It’s a pity that even though Xingyuan said this, Caier, who was already pessimistic about the future, still didn’t feel much moved.

"Xingyuan..."

Cai Er pursed her lips. She knew that what she was going to say next might make Xing Yuan angry. She didn't want to make Xing Yuan angry, so she decided to keep some of the words that were too pessimistic to say in her heart.

"What's wrong?" Xingyuan lowered his head and looked into her eyes.

Since Cai'er insisted on wearing a scarf or veil when she went out, he could only see Cai'er's true face when he was resting at night.

Even though the two had been living together for quite some time, Xingyuan still felt his heartbeat quicken every time he looked into Caier's eyes at such a close distance.

"you want……"

Cai'er's face was very red.

It was strange, she seemed to have no idea what shyness was when she was in front of others, but when she and Xingyuan were alone together, she felt shy and embarrassed, and didn't say anything.

Xingyuan didn't dislike this, and given how familiar he and Cai'er were with each other, even though Cai'er didn't say the second half of the sentence, Xingyuan guessed what Cai'er wanted to do.

Especially, she gently pulled down her collar, and her whole body began to heat up, making Xingyuan feel as if he was hugging a stove.

"Don't, don't. We have to travel tomorrow."

Xingyuan felt a little embarrassed, after all, Li Xin and the other four lived next door.

Not to mention that there is also the great-grandfather around, who is not sure whether he is hiding outside or has just rented a room on the other side to rest.

He really wanted to be intimate with Cai'er, but it was too awkward to do so at this moment.

Although he and Cai'er could set up a soundproof barrier to prevent others from eavesdropping on them, the act of setting up a soundproof barrier itself would consume spiritual energy.

The two of them were not discussing anything important. Setting up soundproofing and anti-peeping barriers in the room like this, isn't that just like trying to cover up something and making it more obvious?

"Is it really because we have to travel tomorrow?" Cai'er suddenly asked.
