Qingqiu Lotus

"Why, why?" Qingqiu Lian stuttered a little.

"Think about it, the Sakura Society came specifically to assassinate you. If they could get information about your exact location, they would definitely be able to find your home. Add to that your identity and status, it must be no simple task, right? Instead of giving this hot potato to you, it would be better to give it to me. This way, your safety can be guaranteed. Who knows if these three people will try every possible way to contact the Sakura Society and send more people to kill you?" Wu Jie organized his sentences and said slowly.

duang!

He really shot himself in the foot!

Qingqiu Lian was just feeling complacent about her plan, but she didn't expect Wu Jie's words to hit her sore spot.

The key point is that she couldn't find any suitable reason to refute it. What a mistake! What a mistake!

Seeing that her plan was about to fail and Wu Jie's figure was getting farther and farther away from her, she could only sigh helplessly at Wu Jie's back. Qingqiu Lian had a flash of inspiration, and an idea that stood out flashed through her mind.

[Why not just reveal my identity to this guy and tell him that I have the ability to protect these three people and myself?] Qingqiu Lian was delighted.

"Ahem."

Qingqiu Lian cleared her throat and adjusted her tone.

"Wu Jie, there is actually one thing you have been misunderstanding."

"Well, misunderstanding?" Wu Jie looked confused.

"actually……"

At this moment, the lights in the entire space suddenly lit up, and seven or eight figures came in from the secret door.

"Who is it?" Qingqiu Lian looked unhappy when she was interrupted.

If they were enemies, I would have to cut them into pieces. They are so ignorant that they dared to interrupt the conversation between me and Darling. I can't tolerate it!

Oh no, it's not Darling, it's Wu Jie! Oh no, it's my savior!

Qingqiu Lian immediately raised a ball of light in her hand and looked towards the entrance with a vigilant look.

"Commander!!!" With a whoosh, a figure threw himself into Wu Jie's arms.

"Eh? What...what's going on?" Qingqiu Lian looked dazed.

Just when Qingqiu Lian was in a daze, another figure rushed over. Although not as exaggerated as the first person, that person's expression could definitely not deceive anyone. Her eyes were full of admiration for Wu Jie.

"Commander, you really are worried about us. Why didn't you come to find us? We have to look for us everywhere."

The first person to jump into Wu Jie's arms was Cecilia. No one else dared to be so careless except her.

The second person to rush over with tears in her eyes was Boa, looking really worried.

The next person who came over was even more important.

"Commander Wu, if you don't give a reasonable explanation, it will be difficult for you to leave here, haha." It was Qingqiu Yu who came over with a kind smile.

Qingqiu Yu had already seen the three girls in sailor uniforms behind Wu Jie and the red-haired girl beside him, and she had already started to have wild thoughts.

"Huh?" Qingqiu Lian was dumbfounded. What was going on? Why was her sister with them?

When Qingqiu Yu got closer, she realized something was wrong: "Oh, it's my elder sister. I didn't expect that my elder sister was with Commander Wu. Can you tell me what happened in between?"

Xila also walked over slowly, and even took Wu Jie's hand, saying with a worried look on his face: "I'm so glad you're okay, sir."

"ah!!!!!!"

"ah!!!!!!"

If Qingqiu Lian could roar like a lion at this moment, she would have probably shaken the building down, right?

But fortunately, she was just imagining the roar in her head and didn't actually scream out loud.

Just like that, happy times returned to daily life.

With Qingqiu Lian's explanation while suppressing her impulse, Wu Jie's calm and composed words, Qingqiu Lian's vivid description, and Wu Jie's understated narration, everyone understood what had happened.

Everyone opened their mouths in shock, no longer caring about their ladylike image, because what Wu Jie did really overturned everyone's common sense.

Wu Jie scratched his head, looking at the puzzled looks from the crowd. He had no choice but to explain, "Perhaps you all don't know much about my past, so I haven't introduced myself properly. My name is Wu Jie, the top graduate of the East China Military Academy. I once won the Dancer Nemesis Medal in a hand-to-hand combat with a dancer. My fellow students at the East China Military Academy called me the youngest rising star. Well, I don't think so myself. After all, the real future lies with them."

"Sir, you are so scary. You are actually the dancer's nemesis. I will stay away from you in the future!" Cecilia pretended to be scared and dodged again and again.

"I didn't expect the commander to have such an impressive past. It's truly eye-opening."

"Sir, you are worthy of being my commander. It is my honor to meet you."

After all, Qingqiu Yu had investigated Wu Jie and was not particularly interested in Wu Jie's past. It was just that he heard the medal of Dancer Nemesis from Wu Jie himself. Could it be that the official deliberately erased this information?

Qingqiu Lian, who was listening to everyone talking, actually felt a little envious of everyone at this moment.

[What a harmonious atmosphere! This kind of atmosphere is something I'll probably never encounter in my lifetime, right?] Qingqiu Lian sighed inwardly. She was clearly envious, but she couldn't find a way to join in the conversation. Suddenly, she felt that her identity and status, those halos, were no longer so dazzling.

"That's fine. Just watching him from afar is enough. Maybe I'm just a passer-by in his life. Maybe after today, he will forget me, forget everything that happened today, and become a stranger in his life."

After all, I'm a scientist, a scientific geek who's ignored by the world. Every day, I spend my time studying and researching. How can I possibly understand these people's love affairs? Instead of dwelling on these things, I should focus my energy on research, which can also bring more benefits to humanity. Perhaps this is my destiny.

Qingqiu Lian felt a little sad when she thought about it. It was really sad. At this time, she was still sentimental like an old aunt.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you something." Wu Jie suddenly said.

"Eh? Commander, are you hiding something from us?" Cecilia said with a wicked smile.

"Yes, yes, the commander is always mysterious and has endless secrets to tell." Boa nodded in agreement.

"No, it's not as complicated as you think." Wu Jie looked helpless.

Wu Jie turned around and said to Qingqiu Lian, "Instead of leaving these three R Country dancers with me, it would be better to leave them with Xiaolian. After all, with her abilities, she can protect these three girls better than I can."

After saying that, Wu Jie smiled and lip-read to Qingqiu Lian.

No one else saw it except Qingqiu Lian.

Wu Jie's words were: "I will come to see you."

Right now.

Qingqiu Lian was filled with joy at Wu Jie's words. It seemed as if the whole world was no longer gloomy but full of color. Even the light in her pupils began to shine...
