Chapter 35 House Viewing

Luka stayed by her bedside and only got up gently when she fell asleep.

He leaned over and placed a kiss on her forehead. Looking at her sleeping face, he felt the gaps in his heart gradually filled. He stood by the bed and watched for a long time before reluctantly leaving.

The military has been overwhelmed with work lately, and he's still tracking down Munakata's clues, so he can't stop for a moment. Now that he knows Hoho has decided to marry Aizawa, he needs to make some arrangements in advance.

Luka gently closed her door and stood alone in front of it for a moment. When he looked up again, he saw a pair of sharp and cold eyes, and the determination in them was unshakable.

No matter who her spouse is, he will be the one by her side in the end.

I don’t know how Lan Ze convinced the emperor, but when Qiao Susu received the news, the couple’s wedding ceremony would be held seven days later and would be broadcast live across the entire galaxy.

It didn't matter to her, but it kept everyone in the royal court busy.

Holding the grandest pairing ceremony in seven days is quite a challenge.

That day, Lan Ze came to pick her up to choose a property.

"Can we choose now? I thought we had to wait until after the pairing ceremony."

"Father was very happy and said it would be better to settle it sooner rather than later. In addition to the property, he also decided to give us a new model of flying ship as a gift."

Qiao Susu rubbed her hands excitedly. The two of them went to pick up the flying ship and then headed straight to the city center.

At first she was a little worried about Lan Ze, fearing that he would be blind and it would be dangerous to fly the ship, but along the way she saw that he was flying the spaceship like a normal person, and she gradually stopped worrying.

"Lan Ze, I wanted to ask you when I first met you, but I was afraid it would be impolite."

"Are you curious about why I can see?"

Here it comes again, as if he knows what she is thinking.

Lan Ze switched the flying ship to autopilot mode, then walked to Qiao Suisui and gently raised his hand towards a cup. A mug, which was not light at all, gradually left the table and floated into the air.

Qiao Suisui exclaimed, "How did you do that?"

“This is spiritual power.”

He demonstrated it a few more times. When he moved his hand to the right, the mug floated to the right. When he moved his hand to the left, the mug floated to the left, until it finally landed steadily in its original place.

"I've been practicing using my mental power to retrieve objects since I was a kid. Over time, my mental power has become like my hands. As long as I think about it, it can help me reach everything. Of course, it has also become my eyes."

Although he said it lightly, Qiao Sui Sui felt that this perseverance was admirable. If she had lost her five senses and lived in darkness, she would probably have given up on living long ago, let alone training her mental strength.

"Lan Ze, you are really nice."

The young man smiled shyly, as elegant as a pure-colored daffodil.

He has a non-competitive temperament, which makes Qiao Sui Sui want to get close to him. Looking back, from the beginning to now, she has never had any friends.

"Can we be friends?"

Lan Ze was stunned.

"Don't be surprised, I've never had many friends since I was a child, so I really want to know what it feels like to have friends."

The young man pondered for a moment, then sat down next to her, keeping a distance from her that was neither too far nor too close.

"I don't have any friends either. How should I be friends?"

"Well, I think it's about helping each other. If you have something delicious or interesting to eat, share it with each other. If you are unhappy, talk to your friends. Friends are people who listen to each other carefully."

Lan Ze listened carefully, a doting smile on his face.

"Okay, I think I can be a good friend."

Qiao Susu also laughed heartily and stretched out her little finger to hook it with his.

"Then we have a deal."

"good."

The two of them then went to the city center to look at several properties, but Qiao Suisui wasn't satisfied with any of them. The royal residence was impeccable, with its opulent decor, large floor space, and proximity to the bustling city center. But none of these were what Qiao Suisui had in mind. The ship flew over the city, and as it reached its destination, the sky was dark.

When Qiao Suisui got off the airship, she was immediately intoxicated by the vast and boundless sky in front of her.

"This is a relatively remote area of ​​the Oslan Empire. It takes half a day to get to the city center, and the level of development is not very high."

Lan Ze explained it to her attentively and noticed that she seemed to like this place very much, so he introduced it to her carefully one by one.

"Although it's a bit secluded, the surrounding scenery is really beautiful. There's a forest park over there, and the planting base is a ten-minute walk from here. Although the house is not as large as the ones we looked at before, it is a stand-alone two-story building."

When Qiao Suisui walked in, the floor creaked.

She looked around and found the decor was very simple, with only a few wooden chairs as the only furniture. There were ten rooms on two floors, plus a small cellar.

The second floor is a large flat with floor-to-ceiling windows. Standing in front of the glass window of the master bedroom, you can see the vast starry sky outside.

Lan Ze released his mental power to inspect the entire building and said to Qiao Sui Sui, "There's no Sky Eye. But this building has been there for a long time, and it doesn't have a housekeeper like other properties."

"It doesn't matter."

Qiao Susu pushed open the door to the second-floor terrace, stood outside with her arms spread out, and took a deep breath.

"That's what I want, I want to create my own life."

Lan Ze stood silently behind her and smiled. His spiritual threads emanated from behind her, wrapping around Su Su's arms and waist in circles, like a silent hug.

Without either of them noticing, a ray of silver light flashed by, so fast that it was impossible to catch it.

The two of them took another quick walk around the house. Qiao Susu carefully planned how to use each area, took some photos with her computer, and planned to take them back for careful study.

After they had seen enough, they decided to leave. Before leaving, Lan Ze took out a button-sized round magnet and stuck it on the door.

"What's this?"

"A security device. Don't underestimate its size; the entire house is within its coverage. Come, let me record your pupils."

Qiao Susu walked over and put her eyes on the hole of the round magnet. An infrared ray quickly scanned her eyes.

"Okay, now no one except you can enter this house."

"Can't you come in either?"

"I can only come in when I'm with you. I can't come in alone. The security device can identify me intelligently."

She sighed inwardly at how advanced it was.

Suddenly, it started to rain outside. Lan Ze was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he asked her to wait in the corridor while he drove the flying ship over and got her a coat.

Qiao Suisui nodded and obediently took shelter under the porch. Perhaps because she had resolved a major issue, she felt very relaxed at the moment, humming a song and reaching out to catch the raindrops dripping from the eaves.

"Are you happy?"

The sudden sound from the side made Qiao Susu's outstretched hand freeze in mid-air.

She slowly turned around and saw a face with a gloomy expression.

"Munekata!"
