Chapter 329: We Need To Talk

Hearing Long Yu's question, Shi Xuan replied, "No problem. I will get on it immediately."

"Good. For now, you guys should rest and recover your stamina. I will handle tonight's patrol," Long Yu said.

"Yes, Captain," the others replied before dispersing.

As they left, Yao Ran gently pulled Long Yu's hand and said, "A Yu, we need to talk."

Long Yu paused, looking at her, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yao Ran stared at him for a moment before saying, "I know you are worried about me, but you can't always be by my side or protect me. I can take care of myself. I'm not weak."

Long Yu looked at her but said nothing.

Looking at his stubborn expression, Yao Ran sighed and continued, "I know I lost some memories because of The Ark, and I don't fully understand why you are acting this way. But I need you to know-I don't want to be a sheltered flower in a greenhouse."

"I want to stand beside you to fight with you and protect you. If there comes a time when I need to face danger, I hope you will understand and support my decision. A Yu, you have to understand that in this world, you are not responsible for my life or anyone else."

After speaking her mind, Yao Ran leaned in, kissed his cheek, and whispered, "When you have thought this through, come find me."

With that, she let go of his hand and left the meeting room.

Alone in the quiet meeting room, Long Yu clenched his fists, standing there for a long time. When he finally moved, night had fallen. Grabbing his weapons, he went outside, slaying deformed monsters while contemplating Yao Ran's words.

Meanwhile, Yao Ran had just finished her work in her space and taken a shower. After putting on her anti-slashing clothing, she left the space.

Reappearing in her bedroom, Yao Ran grabbed her long sword and stepped out. Noticing it was dinner time, she headed to the dining room but didn't see Long Yu there.

Approaching Jia Xiang, she asked, "Sister Jia Xiang, have you seen A Yu?"

Jia Xiang glanced at Shi Xuan and Huang Qian before replying, "Captain is outside killing deformed monsters."

Hearing this, Yao Ran frowned slightly and said, "I see. Then I will also go kill some monsters."

As she left the dining room, Jia Xiang watched her retreating figure, then nudged Shi Xuan with her elbow.

"A Xuan, do you think something happened between Captain and Yao Ran?" She asked curiously.

Shi Xuan glanced at her and answered, "I'm not sure. Why do you ask?"

Jia Xiang shook her head and said, "I don't know. It just feels strange that the two of them are not together."
