Fallen Chronicles-Chapter 377 Yuki

"Waiting for me!?"

Renji's mind went blank at those words. He didn't recognize the beautiful woman in front of him. Plus, with the rain seeming to get heavier around them, the young man suspected he had misheard her over the sound of the downpour.

The woman's next words seemed to confirm this.

Seeing the confusion and perplexity on the young man's face, as if she understood something, she quickly spoke again:

"Little brother, why are you sleeping in a place like this?"

Now that made more sense.

Renji took this blonde, green-eyed woman to be a kind passerby.

He waved his hand at the woman, indicating he was fine, and then went to stand up to find another spot.

Renji himself didn't know why he was doing this.

Maybe it was his inner pride and vanity acting up?

In any case, he didn't want his destitute appearance to be seen by this lady in front of him.

But reality was cruel. Renji had just gotten to his feet and hadn't even taken a single step when his weakened body dealt him a blow. His dizzy head nearly made him stumble. Fortunately, the woman in front of him reacted swiftly, catching him at once and preventing him from falling.

However, as a result...

"S-sorry," Renji apologized after steadying himself, looking at the woman's dress that had gotten dirty and wet from supporting him with his soaked, tattered cloak.

It was a very pastoral style light yellow dress, decorated with leaves and wreaths. Judging from the fine fabric, it must have been quite expensive.

Now Renji was at a bit of a loss, his morals told him that after dirtying someone else's belongings, he needed to take responsibility, so he could no longer just leave.

But if he didn't go... Now penniless and even "homeless", what could he possibly offer as compensation?

On the other side...

*Chuckle*

Seeing the young man like this, the woman suddenly laughed. Then her eyes lit up as if she had thought of a good idea.

From the young man's attitude just now, he was very wary of her as a stranger, and didn't have much reaction to her beauty. When she took the initiative to talk to him, the young man wanted to leave in a hurry.

This was very tricky. If she insisted on making him stay, it would likely provoke the young man's resistance and make him even more wary and averse.

But now...

"It's okay, it's not your fault," the woman said, but the expression on her face still showed a bit of distress and difficulty over the soiled, wet dress.

This undoubtedly made the young man feel even more guilty. Perhaps it was his pride acting up again, but the young man blurted out without thinking, "I, I'll wash it for you."

Of course, Renji regretted it as soon as he said it.

Not even considering if he knew how to wash a woman's dress. The question was, where would he wash it for her? Even if there was a dedicated laundromat nearby.

Then what? It's not like I could have this lady take off her clothes and give them to me now, right?

With this thought, Renji subconsciously glanced at the woman again.

Her proud and ample upper body, the perfect rounded curves of her lower body under the fitted dress - even many actresses probably couldn't compare to such a graceful and beautiful figure.

No, no... What am I thinking? Why are my thoughts becoming lecherous?

Renji shook his head, wanting to quickly toss out these messy thoughts. The other person was so kind-hearted, how could I have such dirty...

The young man hadn't even finished confronting his inner thoughts when, unexpectedly, the woman's next words made him freeze on the spot again.

"Wash clothes for me... Alright then, my house is not far from here, let's go."

Uh!??????...

Renji: "..."

"What's wrong?" The woman blinked her innocent eyes, looking puzzled at the young man who stood still as if he wanted to say something.

"brother, you said you would wash it for your sister, so are you going back on your word now?~"

The woman said with a smile, while showing expressions like "If you go back on your word, there's nothing I can do", "It wasn't your fault to begin with", "Never mind, it's okay".

Actually, Renji had wanted to refuse at first.

But upon seeing the woman's expression, it was as if something was stirred up in his heart. His mind got heated and he blurted out as if in a fit,

"I'm afraid of dirtying your clothes again, you go ahead, I'll just follow behind."

But unexpectedly, the woman didn't back off and instead took a few more steps closer to the young man.

Before Renji could even react, the woman was already almost shoulder-to-shoulder with him, with part of their clothes sticking together again.

The woman's explanation for this was: "It's going to be washed later anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's dirty or not. My umbrella is a bit small, let's just make do like this."

As the distance closed in, Renji could smell the faint fragrance emanating from the woman's body. It had a jasmine-like feeling, as if one was in a sea of flowers.

Speaking of which... From the forest-patterned umbrella at the beginning, to the pastoral style dress, and finally this sea-of-

flowers lingering perfume - the other party really seemed to like nature a lot.

--Nature...--

Renji felt that something seemed to flash across his mind, but when he tried to grasp it again, it disappeared. That piercing and tearing feeling hit him again, making the young man frown.

At this moment, whether intentionally or accidentally, the woman's body tilted slightly as she walked, suddenly pressing her arm against the young man's.

This was different from just clothes touching. Renji immediately felt the large area of softness transmitted from the arm, as well as the other party's body heat.

This stimulation instantly brought Renji back to his senses, no longer trying to dig into his memories, and naturally that painful feeling disappeared as well.

Renji was a bit surprised. The place he had hoped to find before that could shelter from the rain, block the wind, and hopefully be a bit warm - it wasn't fulfilled by his previous "home", but now, it was achieved in this way.

The young man hurriedly took a small step outward to create some distance. Although the other party was indeed very beautiful, he wasn't some casual person, let alone someone who would take advantage of the situation.

Renji considered himself to be a very conservative and traditional person.

Especially when it came to relationships between men and women.

The young man's little movements - the woman pretended not to notice and didn't try to accidentally press arms together again. As if to ease the awkward atmosphere, the woman took the initiative to ask on the way home:

"Brother, what's your name?"

"Renji."

"..."

"..."

After about five more seconds of silence, the woman stopped and looked at the clueless young man with slightly angry eyes.

"At this time, a polite good kid should ask back, 'What's your name, sister?', you know?"

Renji: "..."

"What's your name, sister?"

"Yuki."

"You can just call me Yuki." The elf-like sister said sweetly to the young man with a smile.
