“What Tianhe City?” Jess frowned and said, “Wang Ji…”

He only caught a very rough outline from a distance. Although he didn't know what was going on, based on what he heard, he knew that no matter what, this matter was not suitable to be discussed in public.

"Heh~" Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaowen sneered again, as if he had given up: "I said, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place... You did it yourself, and you were so proud of it that you secretly bragged to Lena, so engrossed in it, how can you blame others for hearing it?"

What? Did I already tell you to let go?

Upon hearing his words, Wang Ji suddenly raised an eyebrow, then stared straight at him without saying a word.

A few seconds later, he smiled nonchalantly, let go of her hand, and took the worried and bewildered Reina's hand as they left together.

All that remained was a scene of devastation and a group of worried and bewildered people.

...

Afternoon, on the deck.

Wang Ji broke his promise and did not go to spar with Du Qiangwei. Instead, he took a walk hand in hand with the dejected Lena on the deck.

They were both wearing dark green uniforms, almost like matching outfits.

"Wang Ji, are you... in a good mood?" Suddenly, Lena, who had been looking down, looked up and asked.

"Heh..." Wang Ji chuckled, with a slight sigh: "It's alright. In any case, I knew long ago that I had to process and resolve these things on my own, or forget them."

If it weren't for this, I would have developed inner demons long ago.

A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit.

Too clever by half.

Through this experience, he learned something—there are no things in this world that can be calculated, only unexpected corners.

As for his feelings... In fact, many times, Wang Ji felt that he was indifferent and even selfish and cold, which is why he was born with some resilience.

However, he was still a human being, and a young man at that. No matter how indifferent or resilient he was, the responsibility for the deaths of 50,000 people was directly connected to him, and he was also under immense pressure that he could not bear.

No matter the reason, this kind of pressure and self-blame can drive a person crazy.

Perhaps it's because of indifference, or because of seeing too much blood, or perhaps it's because of the resilience she developed from a young age, or perhaps it's because she truly learned something from Reina, to see things from a god's perspective...

He knew he had to pull through.

So he pulled through.

"When have we ever whispered anything outside?" Lena pursed her lips, hesitatingly saying, "I haven't let anything slip..."

Her voice was soft and full of doubt.

“It’s not you.” Wang Ji shook his head directly: “It’s not me either.”

"That is...?" Lena was even more confused and looked at him.

"Heh~" Wang Ji chuckled and shook his head: "I'm still studying and considering this matter. I'll talk about it when the time is right... How are you? Don't be too sad. I've told you so many times, you're my goddess, and I will always believe in you."

Recently, Cheng Yaowen and Lena have had several subtle conflicts, which have recently become more intense. Lena not only has to endure Cheng Yaowen's cold words and bears enormous pressure and guilt, but also worries about how her beloved will view her.

She worried that Wang Ji would treat her differently because of this.

So lately, Wang Ji has been spending many nights with Lena, offering her more companionship and comfort.

"Goddess... I bet everyone thinks I'm your little lapdog," Lena pouted and said quietly.

It was clear that she was in a low mood.

Because of her situation, Wang Ji's situation was brought up, and it could lead to a series of troubles that would be detrimental to Wang Ji. She was not only worried about Wang Ji's feelings, but also felt increasingly guilty.

"Hehe~" Wang Ji chuckled upon hearing this and replied, "There's nothing wrong with what you said."

"Ugh..." Lena pouted, looking at him with some frustration, wondering why he was saying that about her, since he was always so good at comforting people.

"Aren't you my little lapdog?" Wang Ji's lips curled up slightly as he leaned close to her head and whispered, "Hmm? I'm still your little lapdog~ Nobody loses out."

Lena was stunned for only a moment, then her face immediately turned red...

She kept pursing her rosy lips, lowered her head, her eyes were alluring, and she was flustered and dared not reply.

"It's just that I have more simps, while you only have me..."

"Alright~" Lena squeezed his hand: "Stop talking~"

"Hehe, indeed, the way to lift your spirits from gloom is to add a little yellow..." Wang Ji held her hand and walked slowly, feeling the different kinds of gazes he was receiving along the way.

It started after noon, with incredulous yet questioning gazes from not only ordinary people, but also from members of the Super Soldier Company.

“Nana…”

"Huh?" Lena responded with some surprise, surprised by his sudden use of such an affectionate term of endearment.

"What kind of person do you think I am?" Wang Ji asked, holding her hand and gazing at the horizon where the sea and sky met.

The two walked slowly along the edge of the railing.

“You?” Lena tilted her head, thought for a moment and said, “You are…you are a perfect man, even though I am closest to you, I still think so.”

You are beautiful, so beautiful, smart, hardworking, principled, ambitious, capable, talented, and gifted.

They are loving, patriotic, responsible, emotionally intelligent, polite, know when to advance and retreat, persevering, and decisive.

He possesses a kingly demeanor, a compassionate heart, is adept at socializing, understands people's hearts, knows how to gauge situations, and can harmonize a woman's heart.
