Summary: The male protagonist is always wrong

Chapter 249 Lelouch 26

Leaving Euphemia alone by the campfire, Yin Li and Lelouch went out to find some food.

The area was still under siege by the Britannian military, and they expected to stay here for a few days. Now they could only wait and see what would happen.

Yin Li used a stick to scratch the grass, causing a rustling sound. "Are you jealous of Euphemia?"

"Are you jealous of Euphemia?" Lelouch turned his head away and said unhappily, "Even when you're jealous, you can still have a friendly conversation with that woman."

"Even if I'm jealous, it's your fault, not Euphemia's. Do you want me to vent my anger on her? Do you like seeing people jealous of you?" Yin Li looked at him sarcastically, then sighed, "I'm not jealous, I'm just disappointed, Lelouch."

Yin Li raised her eyes to look at Lelouch, and that look made Lelouch's heart skip a beat.

"I thought you were a cold and heartless person, wary and suspicious of everyone. I thought I could warm your heart. But then I found out you only treated me like this."

"First of all, Kurumi-kun. On the first day you reunited with him, you recognized him in public without any scruples and welcomed back this dear friend."

"You're even reluctant to use your Geass on him. Let me guess, maybe you're thinking, 'Only you, I won't use it.' What a touching friendship."

Young Suzaku Kururugi and Lelouch were together for only a little over a year, but Yin Li and Lelouch spent much longer in Britannia than that.

Lelouch cruelly told Yin Li with his actions that feelings cannot be measured by time.

Hearing Yin Li's words, Lelouch opened his mouth to speak, but the sob in his throat prevented him from speaking. He didn't expect Yin Li to care so much about these things, nor did he expect that she would be so cruel when she started to settle accounts with him.

"Then there's Euphemia. You were so open with her that you even told her Zero's identity easily."

"I can't help but wonder, am I some kind of monster that could make you so defensive?"

"Finally, it's Nunnally. I don't ask to be more important than Nunnally in your heart, but you really disappoint me. Nunnally was kidnapped, so you can take the opportunity to insult me ​​and CC?"

Yin Li's words pierced Lelouch's heart one after another, and his heart beat faster and faster. Lelouch was like a death row prisoner who had been sentenced to death. His eyes were wide open with a painful expression, but he was unwilling to accept the verdict just like that.

Lelouch retorted fiercely, "That's not the case, because you are different from them!"

Both Suzaku Kururugi and Euphemia are people who don't understand scheming and trickery, and you can control them by being appropriately honest with them.

But if Yin Li discovered any of the truth, he would probably follow the clues and take advantage of everything.

Lelouch never thought that his previous attitudes towards Yin Li would lay the groundwork for today.

But saying this would definitely make Yin Li even angrier.

As for Nunnally, he was indeed sorry.

He looked at Yin Li and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, because of Nanali, I did lose control. I'm sorry..."

Lelouch rarely used his sweet talk, and seemed to have realized his mistake. He just calmly expressed his apology.

After hearing his apology, Yin Li's expression did not change, "Lelouch, you've already apologized."

More than once, reflexively, rationally, guiltily... sorry, sorry, just because of this matter, he has heard Lelouch's apology many times.

He didn't want an apology, Lelouch had to break this habit or they would have no future.

Lelouch seemed to have guessed his thoughts, staring at him with burning eyes, and involuntarily took a step forward to close the distance between them, "So what do you want? Tell me."

Their breaths were so close that even the air became hot, and a charming atmosphere lingered around the two of them.

Lelouch's expression was calm, but his eyes were full of affection. His purple eyes were filled with satisfaction and reflected the boy's image.

Yin Li did not answer. If he started talking about their future now, wouldn't it mean that he had already included Lelouch in his future plans?

As a result, he was at a disadvantage.

It didn't matter that he was silent, Lelouch vaguely sensed his thoughts, at least he didn't give up on himself completely, and that was enough.

Lelouch leaned down slightly, his movements were very slow, as if waiting for Yin Li to push him away.

But the boy just lowered his eyelids slightly.

As the distance got closer, his breathing became heavier, and his fingertips trembled uncontrollably. When their lips touched, the warm touch brought him warm comfort. Lelouch reached out his hand and clasped his fingers tightly. At some point, Yin Li raised her head slightly.

The night gradually deepened, the waves washed the beach, the birds' singing penetrated the quiet forest, and unknown animals passed by at feet, bringing bursts of rustling leaves.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, someone broke a branch, and then there was Euphemia's voice calling the two of them.

"Lelouch, Yin Li, are you here?"

Lelouch let go of the boy in his arms, but couldn't help but enjoy the afterglow, intertwining their fingers and resting their heads against his to calm his breathing, letting Euphemia's cries echo through the woods.

Yin Li raised his eyes as if asking him to reply, but Lelouch did not answer.

It wasn't until Euphemia's voice was getting closer that Lelouch finally let go of Yin Li and spoke loudly.

"We are here, Euphemia."

As the night deepened, Euphemia didn't notice anything unusual happening to the two men. She took two steps forward and asked, "You've been gone for a long time. I was a little worried. Did you find any food?"

"Well, we've found it. Let's go back. It's inconvenient to walk in the forest at night." Yin Li took the prey out of the trap that had been dug nearby.

Watching Yin Li jump into the trap neatly and then jump out easily, Euphemia smiled happily, "Yin Li is feeling much better now, that's great."

Lelouch didn't want to see the harmonious interaction between the two, so he interrupted them while holding the fruit he had picked earlier, "Okay, let's go back."

In the night, the lights of the search team cut through the darkness. Several people rested on the island for one night and rushed to the place where the spotlights were on early the next morning.

Euphemia followed the two men, holding up her skirt, and said gloomily, "If this is a search party, we'll have to separate."

Yin Li smiled and comforted her, "As long as you are still alive, we will meet again."

He lowered his eyes to hide the expression in them.

I'm sorry, Euphemia.

As they were talking, they ran into Suzaku Kururugi and Kallen who were coming towards them.

Lelouch quickly hid aside and put on his hood. Euphemia saw that Suzaku Kururugi was fine, and ran up happily calling his name.

Lelouch then pointed at Euphemia, and Kallen, who was handcuffed by Suzaku Kururugi, attacked Suzaku Kururugi from behind, and the few of them carried out a chaotic hostage exchange.

The ruins beneath my feet suddenly glowed red, and the floor began to sink.

Yin Li clearly saw that it was a red Geass mark.

Lelouch then snatched the Britannian Knightmare named [Gawain] from the chaos and fled with the two of them, spreading their wings.

Yin Li looked thoughtfully at the ruins gate with strange patterns.

Chapter 250 Lelouch 27

After returning from Shikine Island, Yin Li was scolded by his uncle as expected.

"While I was away, you got involved in the Black Knights' affairs again?! And you dared others to hide it from me!"

Qin Xiuyuan was furious.

Qin Xiuyuan had originally agreed to their plan reluctantly, and now he knew that Yin Li was taking the initiative to get into danger while he was in contact with the Federation.

Yin Li could only retreat temporarily, apologize first, then make a promise. After apologizing, he quickly stated the purpose of going out this time, "Xu Neizel has come to District 11."

Qin Xiuyuan's eyes darkened. Schneizel was indeed more difficult to deal with than Euphemia, but judging from the prince's usual principles of formality, his behavior might be easier to predict than Euphemia's.

We’ll talk about this later. The most important thing now is Yin Li’s freedom of will.

Qin Xiuyuan looked at Yin Li expressionlessly, "That's not a reason for you to take such a risk."

Yin Li sat on the chair and shook her legs helplessly, "I've already done it, there's no point scolding me now."

No one had ever dared to contradict him like this.

But facing his naughty nephew, Qin Xiuyuan could only keep silent with a stern face.

"I'm in charge of the emergency rescue team, so I'll be dispatched the moment the plan is finalized. If you have any other ideas..."

Although Qin Xiuyuan didn't finish his threatening words, Yin Li already understood. He didn't want to say it perfunctorily just because he had a sudden inspiration.

"I know, I know."

The school festival of Ashford College is about to begin. Ashford College has always been famous for its openness, so there will be not only people on campus, but also many off-campus visitors and media personnel on this day. The school festival is quite lively. From the morning on, the noise of students filled the campus, which shows how grand the school festival is.

Yin Li covered her mouth and yawned, using her knuckles to wipe away the saline solution from the corners of her eyes.

President Mirei planned to make a pizza with a diameter of 12 meters, and even invited the media to witness it.

Yin Li has never been interested in such things that waste manpower and material resources just to break records, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart about the corruption of capitalism.

He propped up his head and looked down from the rooftop.

The Ashford Academy Festival is indeed very open.

The leisurely Britannian soldiers, the anxious federal eunuchs and their military attachés, Euphemia...

After the preparations were completed, the students gathered at the pizza-making site, and Yin Li also rushed to the scene.

Kururugi Suzaku was flying a Knightmare and throwing dough to the cheers of the crowd.

Everyone cheered enthusiastically. The Britannians and District 11 were in the same place, cheering for the same thing, and there was laughter everywhere.

It was such a joyful scene that Yin Li couldn't bear to ruin it.

But now there are some things that he can no longer decide.

He glanced at the people gathered around Knightmare from the corner of his eye.

The federal eunuch glanced at the students gathered in front of the pizza-making area. His eyes were anxious, as if he was looking for something important.

But the Britannian soldier hiding in the crowd discovered the important thing before him.

The officer pointed in Yin Li's direction and shouted, "Catch him!"

The surrounding soldiers rushed towards him in a well-trained manner.

The voice was loud and abrupt, immediately attracting the attention of everyone attending the celebration.

As soon as Yin Liyi met their eyes, he turned around and ran away. In the process, he inevitably bumped into the crowd and began his escape across the campus.

He was not running fast, keeping a pace that kept him from getting away from the people behind him. As he ran, people's eyes followed him, and the commotion gradually expanded.

"What happened?"

"It seems like the police are arresting someone?"

"This is a school festival. Could there be some dangerous people sneaking in?"
