280: Youji took the initiative to kiss. You are really my enemy.

Chapter 280: You Ji's Proactive Kiss. Ah, you really are my nemesis…

“And most importantly!”

“Even stewing this extremely fishy Mèi fish can remove its fishiness while retaining its deliciousness. As expected of the signature dish, it’s amazing!”

Zhang Xiaofan continued his praise.

And indeed.

Hearing Zhang Xiaofan's praise, the waiter couldn't help but give a thumbs-up and reply, “Ah, you truly are an expert!”

Then his expression became proud and flamboyant.

“But honestly, without the freshest Mèi fish, even immortals couldn't make such a wonderful taste!”

Hearing this, Su Han's anticipation reached its peak.

However…

He was disappointed.

The expected green-clad figure who would refute Zhang Xiaofan did not appear, and no one on the second floor even spoke.

It was still just the waiter and Zhang Xiaofan, talking about the origin of the Mèi fish.

“Hoo~”

Su Han sighed softly.

Although he had anticipated this possibility, Su Han still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at this moment.

“As expected, the butterfly effect caused by You Ji being captured by me resulted in Bi Yao not coming to Shanhai Courtyard this time?”

“That makes sense…”

“A Vermillion Bird Holy Envoy has gone missing, although the final signs indicate that this Vermillion Bird Holy Envoy did not die, but 'escaped injured'.”

“But she is still untraceable.”

“And without You Ji's protection, how could Ghost King feel at ease letting his daughter come to Heyang City alone?”

…………

…………

…………

Inside Shanhai Courtyard.

The voices of Zhang Xiaofan, the waiter, and Zeng Shushu, who occasionally interjected, intertwined into a lively discussion centered around the Mèi fish.

But Su Han was detached; these voices were just meaningless noise to his ears.

His gaze drifted, his mind elsewhere.

He perfunctorily echoed the words of others.

“Since the butterfly effect caused Bi Yao to not be in Shanhai Courtyard, then the upcoming trip to Kong Sang Mountain will probably also be different from the original story?”

“I hope everything goes smoothly!”

“After all, that is the first volume of the Heavenly Book.”

Su Han's fingers unconsciously tapped lightly on the table, tap, tap…

Finally, the meal ended, and everyone got up and returned to their respective rooms.

Su Han briefly parted ways with Lu Xueqi, and after everyone had entered their rooms, he did not return to his, but left Shanhai Courtyard alone.

His steps were hurried, striding towards the outskirts of the city, the moonlight lengthening his shadow.

On the outskirts of Heyang City, a quiet place.

The moonlight poured down like water, illuminating Su Han's figure.

He stopped, looked up at the bright moon hanging high, took a deep breath, “This should be it.”

As he finished speaking.

He suddenly waved his hand, and with a flash of white light.

Xiao Bai and You Ji, who were located in the Cave Heaven world, reappeared in the outside world.

You Ji was wearing a long black dress, the hem swaying gently in the evening breeze, outlining her graceful figure.

Her face was exquisitely beautiful, her skin fair as jade, her eyes like twinkling stars in the night sky.

As soon as she came out, she was attracted by the bright moonlight, tilting her head slightly, her eyes full of daze, her expression somewhat trance-like.

After all, it had been almost two years since she was captured, and she hadn't seen the outside world for too long.

Now suddenly leaving the Cave Heaven, a familiar yet strange feeling instantly surged into her heart.

She slowly turned her head to look at Su Han, the corner of her mouth slightly lifted, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes.

“What, you're finally willing to let me out?”

But seemingly unwilling for Su Han to see her weakness, she suppressed her emotions and 'teased' Su Han.

Hearing this, Su Han's lips curved slightly, his eyes full of doting affection, he gently pinched You Ji's nose and said with a smile.

“I never intended to keep you locked up forever.”

“And if I didn't let you out soon, I was afraid you'd nag me to dust in the Cave Heaven world, saying I broke my promise.”

“So, as soon as we arrived in Heyang City.”

“I seized the opportunity and quickly let you out, didn't I?”

Saying this, he stepped forward, gently pulling You Ji into his embrace, lowering his head slightly, and lightly kissing her forehead.

“How is it, are you happy?”

Feeling Su Han's light kiss, You Ji glanced at Xiao Bai out of the corner of her eye, a faint blush appearing on her face.

“Stop it, Xiao Bai is still here…”

Xiao Bai just pouted, turning her head away with a hint of jealousy, “You still remember I'm here?”

“I was in the Cave Heaven world too.”

“But back then, I didn't see you holding back. That sound… tsk tsk~”

“Xiao Bai!”

You Ji looked at Xiao Bai's teasing and couldn't help but call out softly.

Then she retorted, “One day, you'll be completely devoured by Su Han too!”

“When that happens, I'd like to hear if you, this vixen, will make any sound at all. I estimate you won't be much better than me!”

Xiao Bai covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, “You'll have to have the chance to hear it first. Anyway, I've heard yours now…”

Xiao Bai was full of smugness.

“I'm ignoring you!”

You Ji was truly helpless for a moment and could only let out an annoyed snort.

Su Han watched the two teasing each other, smiled, then released You Ji, placing his hands on her shoulders.

“You're free. What do you want to do next?”

Hearing this, You Ji looked back at Su Han, her expression becoming complicated.

Looking into the distance, she sighed softly, “I need to go back to the Ghost King Sect first to report that I'm safe. After being out of contact for so long, Senior Brother and Bi Yao must be worried sick.”

Su Han nodded slightly, unconsciously tightening his grip on You Ji's hand, “I'll miss you.”

“How about… I go back with you? I can look out for you on the way?”

You Ji gently shook her head, “No need. I am the Vermillion Bird Holy Envoy of the Ghost King Sect; there aren't many people in this world who can threaten me.”

“Alright.”

Seeing You Ji say this, Su Han didn't dwell on it and instead smiled, “Then will you miss me?”

You Ji rolled her eyes at Su Han, “Hmph, miss you? Don't be so conceited.”

“I, the dignified Vermillion Bird Holy Envoy, won't be like a little girl, constantly talking about missing someone.”

“And don't forget!”

“You were the one who captured me and forcibly took me for yourself. You are my enemy!”

Su Han wasn't annoyed, his face still wearing that doting smile, he reached out and gently pinched You Ji's cheek, “Really? I don't believe it.”

You Ji still wanted to say something.

But looking at Su Han's serious and expectant eyes.

Finally…

“Ai!”

You Ji sighed softly, no longer able to say words against her heart.

She stood on her tiptoes and lightly kissed Su Han on the lips.

“Ah, you really are my nemesis…!”

This was the first time You Ji had initiated a kiss while conscious, without any desire, purely out of emotion.

She had to admit, although she was desperate when she was captured into the Cave Heaven.

When she lost herself to Su Han, she had also hated Su Han.

But now, with two years of spending every day together and developing feelings over time, she could no longer hate Su Han.

“I'm leaving.”

You Ji turned to leave.

She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she wouldn't be able to bear leaving, but she still had her own matters to attend to.

However, just then, Xiao Bai suddenly called out to You Ji, “Wait.”

Su Han was puzzled, looking at Xiao Bai who had suddenly spoken, wondering what she was going to do?
