Care Guide to Raising a Max Level Leaf in Apocalypse - 87

Flowers

Under the scorching sun.

Guan Yin covered his face: “I remember everything.”

His four hands came back, two covering his head and two covering his face, as if he wanted to bury himself underground.

He actually caused so much trouble.

And, treated the leader of the team as a kidnapper.

Guan Yin sighed heavily: “I’m done, I need to go back and train more.”

Yu Feichen pondered: “It’s probably not your fault. Captain Si does have the aura of a robber to some extent.”

Uninterested in their conversation, Joker, bored, flipped playing cards up and down: “Where did the little lamb go~”

After the mutant that created the time loop died, everything around turned into a dark, desolate state. All objects and creatures within the school emerged from the loop, leaving behind a silent reality.

The once clean and lively school returned to a hellish appearance, surrounded by deathly stillness. The students who had experienced the day of death repeatedly in the loop finally found liberation but couldn’t bring joy.

Unable to lift the melancholy, Feng Chuyao looked down at the charred land, feeling a bitter taste in her heart.

Suddenly, a cheerful and bright voice broke in.

Ji Jiu appeared happily, pulling Si Yin Yuan with him, waving at them.

Appearing unharmed.

All the sadness and sorrow were instantly cast aside. Feng Chuyao rushed over like a gust of wind, grabbing Ji Jiu’s hand, checking up and down: “Xiao Jiu, I was so worried about you.”

Si Yin Yuan squinted slightly, pulling Ji Jiu, who remained calm, behind him: “Let’s go, let’s go back.”

As expected, the cause of this incident was another mutant, but it was a type never seen before. Its abilities, even if categorized, would definitely be at the top. It would be best to die in the cradle, as growing up would pose an S-level task if the research institute failed to capture the mutant in time.

Feng Chuyao expressed dissatisfaction with his protective behavior, glanced at him, and suddenly noticed the gray rat hanging by his hand.

“Isn’t that the mutant?” Feng Chuyao widened her eyes in shock.

Si Yin Yuan threw the gray rat to her, nodding calmly.

Yu Feichen came over to join in the fun, almost hit by the rat thrown by Feng Chuyao. He exclaimed, “What are you doing, Chunhua!”

But Feng Chuyao had no time to deal with this nickname at the moment. She exclaimed, “Captain, you can accurately sense mutants!”

The concept of accurate supernatural ability is a theoretical one.

Based on this theory, all supernatural abilities can be further purified, allowing better integration and use by the awakened individuals.

Si Yin Yuan’s supernatural ability brutally extracts vitality from all living beings that come into contact with it. The creatures affected often suffer gruesome deaths. Some predecessors had hoped that he could extract vitality only from the mutants without destroying the body, but unfortunately, even after their predecessors sacrificed themselves to the Gama Defense Barrier, Captain Si still couldn’t master this.

Unexpectedly, success came during a mission.

The rat lost its vitality, but the body remained intact, proving the accuracy of Si Yin Yuan’s control.

If one were to point out the difference between the current team leader and the past, it would probably be the nourishment of love.

Feng Chuyao tentatively asked, “Could it be because of Xiao Jiu?”

Si Yin Yuan had never considered this perspective before. He looked down at Ji Jiu.

Ji Jiu was sneakily extending his guilty hands, attempting to steal the strawberry-flavored nutrient solution from Si Yin Yuan’s waist. Sensing the gaze, he quickly withdrew his hand.

Looking innocent, he said, “I wasn’t trying to steal it.”

Si Yin Yuan: “…”

As if punishing him, Si Yin Yuan grabbed the little tuft of hair on his head.

Successfully gaining an annoyed little grass.

In a good mood, Si Yin Yuan lifted the corner of his mouth, extended his hand, and released a burst of golden flames.

Originally exuding a murderous intent, the golden flames, when released, immediately leaned towards Ji Jiu, wanting him to release the black mist to play.

Yu Feichen approached and remarked, “It’s not an illusion. Boss, your ability has become more spirited than before.”

The initial golden flames only possessed a cold and killing instinct, nowhere near as gentle as they were now.

And all of this gradually changed through the daily interaction with Ji Jiu.

Turning point…

This term suddenly emerged without warning.

Si Yin Yuan retracted the golden flames, and his expression became serious again. “Perhaps we need to find time to visit Seer Granny.”

When she spoke, she mentioned that a turning point would appear in the west. He had been looking for tasks related to the west ever since, but at that time, Ji Jiu had just been found in the base. He didn’t connect his appearance with the turning point, maybe he had been looking in the wrong direction. Perhaps the turning point for humans had been by his side from the beginning.

But what she said about the corresponding supernatural abilities was unclear.

Seer Granny?

Ji Jiu’s face showed some confusion. Taking advantage of everyone being busy preparing to leave, he tiptoed to his owner and whispered, “That seer granny is very powerful. It seems she knew my identity from the beginning.”

The first time they met, her gaze seemed to penetrate many things.

However, for some reason, she didn’t expose him. She was a strange human.

Si Yin Yuan was slightly surprised, feeling an inexplicable hint of sourness in his heart. He didn’t even realize this bitterness. He lowered his head and lowered his voice, “How many people exactly know about your identity?”

He was the one who planted the little grass. How come, apart from him, someone else saw through his identity ahead of time?

Ji Jiu, rare in detecting a trace of jealousy, surprised, lifted his eyes. “How come you’re eating the old man’s jealousy too?”

He paused. “Never mind, you even want to eat your own jealousy.”

What jealousy is there that an owner cannot eat? The grudge-holding little grass always remembered the things his owner said when he got drunk, pressing him down and bullying him.

Questioning who his owner really was and saying he would bankrupt him.

At that time, he didn’t know that such behavior was called jealousy.

Si Yin Yuan frowned. “When did I…”

He suddenly couldn’t continue speaking.

All those aggressive thoughts about Ji Jiu’s “true love” that had appeared in his mind turned into heavy hammers pounding on his own heart.

There’s no such thing as an irresponsible ex-lover; it has always been him from start to finish.

Ji Jiu blinked, watching his owner’s regretful expression, and couldn’t help but secretly laugh.

Caught in the act, Si Yin Yuan was more calm than he had imagined. He pretended to be distressed. “It turns out I misunderstood before. What should I do now?”

Ji Jiu blinked. “I forgive you.”

A generous little grass should be forgiving to its foolish owner.

Si Yin Yuan squinted his golden eyes. “But what should I do? I can’t forgive myself.”

Sensing danger with keen intuition, Ji Jiu gently took a step back, his eyes round.

“No, it’s okay.”

Before he could finish, a warm sensation enveloped his lips.

With a restrained force, it felt like a sudden rain, dense and impervious, completely enveloping and occupying lips and teeth. Carrying the scorching breath of alcohol, the invasive action also contained an irresistible tenderness, bringing overwhelming emotions that almost submerged him.

Every time he’s kissed, the little grass becomes dizzy and dares not move. His hands lose strength even to resist, until he can’t take it anymore and utters the first sob, only then is he released.

Si Yin Yuan, with a lingering desire in his eyes, asks, “Can you forgive me now?”

It’s completely a reasonable excuse for self-bullying.

Ji Jiu, entangled, nods pitifully.

…

Sitting in the car, Ji Jiu’s eyes are slightly red, and his lips are slightly swollen, showing that he was just thoroughly bullied.

He finally realized that he had been bullied by the bad owner again in various ways, so he turned away angrily, refusing to acknowledge anyone.

Joker takes out a rose and gives it to Si Yin Yuan, looking heartbroken. “How could you make the little lamb angry? Use the rose to appease him quickly.”

In his eyes, there is no partner that can’t be handled with a rose.

“This is fake.” Si Yin Yuan was very straightforward.

Joker: “…Now I seriously doubt how you managed to woo the little lamb.”

“Never mind, let me give you a tip.” Joker snapped his fingers. “Between couples, you should create more romance and surprises, give more gifts. Everyone I’ve been with before really liked receiving gifts, especially romance.”

Si Yin Yuan’s focus was entirely not on his romantic history. He furrowed his brow. “He’s not a little lamb.”

He’s my little grass.

After saying this, he still accepted the rose from Joker.

Might as well try anything once. After all, he made the guy angry by kissing him so forcefully twice.

Holding the rose that completely contradicts his own sharp and edgy demeanor, Si Yin Yuan went to the back of the car to find Ji Jiu.

“I will not kiss so forcefully in the future?” he coaxed, getting straight to the point.

Well, for the owner’s sincerity, let’s forgive him.

Ji Jiu moves his little strand of hair, behaving like a dignified long-haired Persian cat, slowly turning around. “Okay…”

As soon as he sees what Si Yin Yuan is holding, he immediately fluffed up.

With a sudden change in tone: “Liar! You’re a big liarl!!”

He stared accusingly at the annoying rose, “You really deceived me. You’re a bad owner!”

Not knowing what happened, Si Yin Yuan quickly approached and smoothed Ji Jiu’s fur, “I didn’t deceive you.”

“You humans all like flowers.” Ji Jiu suddenly felt a wave of sadness, remembering the previous LuminousLilly.

The owner cared a lot about it too. Wasn’t it just having one more flower than it did? Those purplish flowers weren’t as pretty as its vibrant green.

This time was even more excessive – he actually used flowers from other plants to apologize.

“You must be very disappointed. You’ve been growing seeds for three years and it can’t even produce a single flower, um…” Ji Jiu was startled by the owner’s sudden move halfway through.

Si Yin Yuan directly lowered his head and planted a kiss on his neck, gently sucking.

Like an electric current running through his entire body, Ji Jiu was completely dumbfounded. Stammering, he asked, “Wha… what are you doing?”

“Proving it to you.” Si Yin Yuan raised his eyes, “Who said you can’t bloom.”

He let go of Ji Jiu, and a glaring red mark appeared on his originally flawless skin.

A kiss mark.

In fact, he didn’t use much force, but Ji Jiu’s delicate skin easily bore a conspicuous imprint.

The pure white mark and the ambiguous imprint complemented each other, like embellishments on an immaculate canvas, carrying intense emotions.

Si Yin Yuan’s breath became heavier, his eyes filled with countless unclear desires. “You see, this is the flower I grew for you.”

“A flower?” Ji Jiu’s head started to feel dizzy again.

“Yeah.” Si Yin Yuan hugged him, his voice hoarse and tempting. “I don’t like other flowers; I only like your flowers, okay?”

The area sprayed by his breath started to tingle, and Ji Jiu instinctively made a soft sound.

Si Yin Yuan was like the most sophisticated hunter, luring his prey into the trap.

“Be good, let’s grow some more.”
