Skynet, the mecha fighting arena.

Lian Han sat in the audience watching the two mechs locked in combat. One was an S-class mech, and the other was an A-class mech. Jiang Chenrui was almost completely dominating his opponent, and the outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.

To be fair, Jiang Chenrui is really strong and outstanding.

He was the same person who had managed to manipulate her eight or nine years ago. Regardless of why he was clinging to her, his deep scheming meant she shouldn't associate with him.

But as for Aunt Chen—Lian Han frowned, deciding to hold off for now and see what Jiang Chenrui was up to.

[This kid's trying to look cool.] Old Xing finally couldn't help but complain.

[Has your mental strength recovered?] Lian Han's tone was cool. Old Man Xing was definitely hiding something from Jing Li.

[Ahem, alright.] Old Xing coughed lightly, changing the subject, [Look at this kid, he could have easily taken him down, but he insisted on using some flashy but ineffective moves. He's just showing off.]

[Aren't you a card maker? How could you tell?]

[If you'd been on those expeditions all the time, you'd see it too. Even though the old man's a card maker, he needs to know a thing or two about mechs for combat. Otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died if he got separated from his crew. With his skill level, I could have taken on three of them back in the day.]

[Choose three 3S models?]

[Uh, no.] Old Xing's voice weakened.

Lian Han paused for a moment, then asked, "[So, one 3S-rank fighter went and bullied three S-rank fighters?]"

[Ahem, don't worry about the details. Look! They're done.]

As Old Man Xing spoke, Jiang Chenrui's dark purple mecha delivered a swift decapitation strike, rendering the opposing mecha obliterated.

Lian Han blinked, suddenly believing what Old Man Xing had said. But why didn't Aunt Shen stop him?

That's right, Aunt Shen is sitting in the armorer's seat of his mecha right now, saying she wants to see his skills.

After the two won, they left immediately. At the same time, a teleportation invitation appeared in Lian Han's information bar, and he clicked to accept.

This is a virtual training room. Shen Sihan sent the recorded video to Lian Han. It was a video of Shen Sihan using the AI ​​to record the process of their battle.

"Your senior is quite skilled. I'll give you a week to practice. After a week, I require you to work with him to recreate the battle again."

Lian Han frowned and said, "But Senior Jiang still has to attend class."

"I've already asked him, and he can spare the time. You two can discuss the details. Let's practice now. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving for a while."

After saying that, only Lian Han and Jiang Chenrui remained in the training room.

Jiang Chenrui smiled and said softly, "Sister."

"Senior Jiang, I'm five years younger than you!" Lian Han felt annoyed when he thought of Lian Rui.

Jiang Chenrui wasn't annoyed. "I'll send my schedule to you, sister. You can practice with me anytime after class. Sister, watch the videos first."

"Don't call me sister!" Lian Han said, emphasizing each word.

"Yes, sister."

Lian Han gritted her teeth, staring at him for a long time before angrily withdrawing her gaze. Without revealing her 2S-level strength, she really couldn't beat Jiang Chenrui. He was the one who taught her all her fighting skills!

Seeing her looking down at the video, Jiang Chenrui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least she hadn't directly kicked him out; something was better than nothing. As for the verbal issue—

He didn't care; a sister is a sister, ever since she took that blow for him. Afterwards, he used himself as bait to help her escape, never expecting she'd think he was dead. So now, when they met again, she thought his faked death was just a trick, that he'd been manipulating her from beginning to end.

But it doesn't matter. As long as they're both alive, he still has a chance. His sister will always be his sister.

Shen Sihan truly lived up to her reputation as a renowned mecha-making genius from the Imperial Capital Star. Even after years without handling mecha, Lian Han was still dazzled by her techniques. The adjustments between each node were almost seamless, and she could even make some predictions. Lian Han felt the task was daunting and became even more focused...

They practiced until late at night before Lian Han finally remembered that Jiang Chenrui had class the next day, so he quickly let him go.

She had just left the training room when she received an invitation from Bei Ting. Lian Han checked the time; it was 2:30 a.m. She hesitated for a moment, but then she remembered Bei Ting's voice.

Seeing her appear, Bei Ting handed her the coffee. "You took the day off?"

"Hmm. There are some things to take care of." Lian Han finished speaking, glanced around, and frowned. "Let's find another place next time."

"What's wrong?"

"I only recently found out this is a matchmaking agency." Lian Han's tone unconsciously hardened as she said this. Old Xing had been deliberately trying to scam her!

"You didn't know?" Bei Ting was surprised, then remembered the first time the two met, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.

He had intended to avoid women, which is why he stood opposite the seemingly aloof girl, but unexpectedly he ran into his old friend's disciple.

"But you didn't say that either," Lian Han couldn't help but complain.

I thought you liked the scenery here.

Lian Han's lips twitched. What a horrible sight!

"Then let's meet somewhere else next time," Bei Ting said, feeling a little regretful. He couldn't ask her to help him fill up his blind date time anymore.

Thinking about his sister, who was so devoted to his marriage, gave Bei Ting a headache.

"Did you need something from me?"

"I couldn't sleep at night, and when I saw you were online, I thought I'd ask. By the way, what do girls like to do?"

A girl? Lian Han raised an eyebrow. "Are you asking how old she is?"

He genuinely didn't know how old the other person was. Bei Ting frowned, then asked, "What if they were around your age?"

Lian Han thought for a moment about An He and the others, "Beautiful things, and most girls can't resist desserts."
