The Heartthrob Guide: Dodder of S-Class Sentinels

Chapter 275 Green Tea
"Nannan, it's been a long time."

A familiar voice sounded from behind, carrying a hint of deliberately crafted elegance, causing Lin Nan to turn around subconsciously.

Lan Yin stood behind the door not far away, her figure still tall and slender, her long legs and figure accentuated by her exquisitely tailored white suit.

Unlike his usual sharp and capable attire, he had clearly put more effort into his appearance this time, with delicate silver patterns adorning the collar of his suit, making his neck appear even longer.

She had long, curly blue hair, which was braided into a long plait on her side and adorned with a ribbon at the end.

"Your confinement period is over?" Seeing that the person who came was Little Jellyfish, Lin Nan, who had been tense, finally got a moment of relaxation.

"Yes, thanks to your guidance last time, my crisis has been resolved, but I still need to wear the monitoring ring for a while." Lan Yin pointed to the electric shock ring around her neck and said gently.

Lin Nan followed his finger and looked over. Sure enough, the man was wearing a choker on his long, white neck. However, because the style was too gorgeous, she had thought it was just an ornament.

As expected of a show-off, even choosing the style of a stun gun is a priority.

She silently complained for a moment, then smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"Thank you." Lan Yin's voice still carried a smile, with a slight rise at the end, as if she was genuinely pleased with the response.

He then fell silent, gazing intently at Lin Nan with his pale white eyes.

Lin Nan sensed that the atmosphere around her was changing. The moisture content in the air was rising, as if it were coated with glue, becoming wet and sticky.

His appearance made Lin Nan a little embarrassed to look him in the eye. The man stood there dignified, but his eyes were as lingering and affectionate as a puppy's.

“Then I’ll have to trouble Your Highness.” At this moment, Gis’s cold voice broke through, “I’d like to ask you to help Guide Lin bathe and assist her in absorbing this energy stone.” After saying that, he took the initiative to walk into the small compartment behind the screen of the healing pool and continued, “I’ll be right here. You two can call me anytime if you need anything.”

"Thank you, but I don't think it's necessary." Lan Yin glanced at the man's figure behind the screen, her smile gentle, but her words were vulgar. "My guide is still young and easily embarrassed. I'm afraid she won't be comfortable with strangers here. You should wait at the door."

The figure behind the screen remained silent for a few seconds, then bowed to the two of them and left the room.

Inside the vast healing pool room, only two people remained.

"You must be very tired after sitting in the airship for so long. Would you like a massage?"

Lan Yin spoke very softly. He approached respectfully, his fingertips gently brushing her slightly disheveled hair. His movements were natural and practiced, tinged with tenderness.

The healing pool was filled with steam, the warm air carrying a faint herbal scent—a truly relaxing environment. But Lin Nan had no interest in a bath. Having finally run into an acquaintance, she seized the opportunity to ask about Huo Sen: "Your Highness Lan Yin, could you tell me what happened to the director? Why did he suddenly mutate?"

"..." Lan Yin's previously calm emotions cooled instantly upon hearing Lin Nan's words. The man's beautiful eyes stared at Lin Nan's hand clutching his clothes, a strange temper fermenting in his chest. He gently enveloped the girl's hand, then leaned closer, his shoulders slightly lowered, compressing the distance between them to its absolute limit.

"What did you call me?" Lan Yin's attention seemed to be only focused on how Lin Nan addressed him, and she felt slightly dissatisfied with her deliberate distance. "I don't think I've ever heard you call my name before. There are so many men... why don't you call me by name?"

what?
Lin Nan's mind went blank for a moment, and she didn't know how to respond.

She never imagined that he would care about that.

Although Lan Yin was already her personal sentinel, their interactions were not as close as those between Huo Sen and Caesar. In addition, given his noble status, she felt embarrassed to call him by his name directly.

Unexpectedly, her actions were perceived by this person as deliberate neglect.

Lin Nan could almost clearly see her reflection in the man's pupils, feel the sea breeze on his nose with his breath, and even see the faint lines on his lips.

If he had just moved a fraction closer, they could have kissed.

She instinctively tried to back away, but Lan Yin gripped her wrist even tighter.

"Could you give me more attention from now on?" The man's voice was still damp, as if he had just been pulled out of the steam, soft and a little hoarse, yet it held an unyielding stubbornness. "It's really unfair to me that you're ignoring me like this. What those despicable... those people can do, I can do too."

After the man finished speaking, his lips were wet, and he placed a kiss on her cheek. He didn't rush to kiss Lin Nan's lips, but instead started from her jawline and carefully traced every inch of her cheek.

From her jawline to her cheekbones, and down to below her brow bone, he didn't even miss the fine lines at the corners of her eyes. Every light peck was filled with careful tenderness, yet also concealed an undisguised possessiveness.

Lin Nan's whole body tensed up, her fingertips curled slightly, but he held her waist firmly, leaving her no room to retreat.

She could clearly feel the warm, humid air clinging to her neck, mingling with the steam from the healing pool, weaving a tight, impenetrable net around them.

"You've lost weight after your trip to District Nine..." Lan Yin's kiss lingered near her earlobe, gently nibbling at the soft skin. Her voice was low, almost a whisper, and the warm, moist breath brushed against her earlobe, making her shiver involuntarily. "Will those guys really take good care of you? They only know how to take without restraint..."

As he spoke in a teasing tone, he placed his palm on her back, his fingertips touching her fabric, and gently caressing the zipper opening at the back.

"Hey, wait a minute—um..." Lin Nan realized his intention and hurriedly reached out to stop him, but the man lifted her up by her hips. The height difference between the two was quite large, and she looked as petite as a child in his arms.

Her feet were suddenly lifted off the ground, and Lin Nan swayed, wanting to scream, but before she could even utter a sound, the man in front of her swallowed her breath whole—

A kiss, hot and moist, pressed down on my face, devoid of any of the previous delicate exploration, leaving only an almost uncontrollable ferocity.
