Officer Xu left, but his words remained.

Shi Xing couldn't help but think about them again and again before going to bed.

Of the three officers whose subsequent applications were passed, only one has arrived at the Tree Nest. When selecting these three people, Chi Yao clearly expressed to Shi Xing that the best choices were Xiang Heze and Tan Yan. If both of them had problems that he could not ignore, Chi Yao would suggest that he consider the next three.

This week, he carefully selected the application forms. He read a lot of information about each officer and almost knew them by heart.

After meeting them, Lieutenant General Xiang Heze and Major General Tan Yan were also very nice people.

But Shi Xing still didn't have a clear answer.

The question that Officer Xu asked today was also asked by Chi Yao when the final application form was finalized. It was just a casual question .

After hearing Shi Xing's answer, the other party joked, "Maybe there will be someone you fall in love with at first sight, and you will be willing to follow him."

Shi Xing just smiled at this.

But he knew in his heart that there was no such possibility.

After experiencing Lu Lu, Shi Xing was even afraid that he would act on his emotions when choosing a partner.

This time he just wanted to choose a partner who could fully support him and be strong enough to ensure that he could successfully go through the mature stage. As for feelings, Shi Xing would no longer look at the problem so naively.

A few days ago, Shi Ran asked Shi Xing hypothetically in the communicator, what if you meet someone you particularly like but is not very suitable, should you choose him? Shi

Ran had asked this before, and Shi Xing's answer was to just follow your heart.

This time, Shi Xing was silent for a while, and replied, [In the mature stage, we will absorb the spiritual power of our partner, and we still have a lot of time to spend together, so feelings can be cultivated.]

Rather than answering Shi Ran, it is more like stating his current ideas.

He didn't say it explicitly, but Shi Xing knew that if he had to do it again, feelings would become the most negligible part of his selection criteria.

He has not made up

his mind between Xiang Heze and Tan Yan, and they each have their own points of entanglement. Xiang Heze is older and has a gentle personality. Shi Xing feels at ease when he is in contact with him, but his spiritual power level is SS. After Shi Xing came back, his abilities became very different, and he didn't know how much room for development he had.

What if... I can reach SSS, what should I do after that?

Tan Yan is young, outgoing, and enthusiastic. His spiritual power level is 3S, which is very good.

But when getting along with Tan Yan, who is also a descendant of a military family and is equally talkative and outgoing, Shi Xing always finds that Tan Yan has many similarities with Lu Lu, which are traits unique to young people of their backgrounds.

This similarity makes him panic. He knows that Tan Yan is the most suitable, but he is afraid that the other party is too young and unstable, which will bring unpredictable variables in the future.

Speaking of which, Tan Yan is also the youngest son in the family. Of course, he has a younger sister, but... some aspects really remind him of Lu Lu seamlessly, and then he shrinks back.

Chi Yao is different.

Chi Yao combines the advantages of both sides.

Strong and stable.

His Highness should have been independent for a long time. He is the controller of his own life and can completely decide the people and things around him.

The level of mental power is high, definitely SSS, but Shi Xing couldn't estimate the upper limit of the part beyond that.

But the level is definitely not lower than his.

Finally, and this is the most exciting thing for Shi Xing, although he didn't have much contact, he knew Chi Yao.

Whether it was the time they met outside the Prince's Mansion before his rebirth or the contact in the tree nest, compared to Xiang Heze and Tan Yan, Chi Yao had no purpose towards him, so there was no special attitude, but... Shi Xing could truly feel equal respect in their interactions.

Chi Yao respected him very much.

Even if it was not necessary at all.

Even with his status, he didn't dare to mind these details in attitude.

But the other party just did it, and made him feel it.

This kind of character is rare for a superior with a high status.

Especially after meeting so many people of high status in the imperial capital, Shi Xing became more certain of this perception.

Chi Yao was able to arrange Fei Chu very well. He also tried his best to deal with such a serious injury and found two doctors to come to the tree nest. He was so considerate. If he had any problems in the future, he would not be treated too badly.

Strong, stable, respect him, and have full control over his own life.

Shi Xing couldn't think of a better candidate than Chi Yao.

Moreover, he also felt that the other party was very good in his heart and was willing to get close to the other party. Although this was not important, people were not machines. When they thought about it, it would greatly affect their subjective feelings.

Go ask Chi Yao yourself...

Shi Xing looked at the ceiling, his sea blue eyes were slightly confused in the dark.

Soon it was time for everyone to go out together.

The matchmaking banquet was about to be held. In the week before it, the Tree Nest was more open, and more officers invited Blue Star people to come out of the Tree Nest. Therefore, in conjunction with this important dinner of the empire, Ancheng was holding activities everywhere, and the central city area was decorated by merchants to be extremely lively, so as to earn crystal coins from the officers who were traveling with Blue Star people.

According to Shi Ran, who had already been out twice, there were various activities and festivals organized by merchants every day.

It was Yun Wu who suggested going out to play, and after reporting to Chi Yao, Hua Li found out about it.

In short, both sides wanted to invite him, and they were at a stalemate. In the end, Chi Yao waved his hand and said to go together.

The commercial street they chose to spend money on was decorated with childish fun. As soon as they got off the spaceship, they saw a notice about the fireworks that Ancheng had arranged to set off along the river tonight. Probably because they were afraid that tourists would not know, every business projected the news on the store entrance to attract passers-by to stop and spend money.

Since it was there, they naturally had to see it.

First they went to the restaurant chosen by Hua Li to eat, and then went to the game hall that Yun Wu liked.

Shi Xing ate a lot in the former, and the latter, the virtual battleship in the game hall was particularly fun. Tan Yan taught Shi Xing, and Shi Xing drove it several times. Although he could not pass the asteroid meteorite belt every time, the excitement and happiness were real.

Chi Yao had a calm expression throughout the whole process, and he also played with them, but he did not seem to be particularly keen on any one of them.

There are Xiang Heze and Tan Yan in the team at the same time. Sometimes both of them will call Shi Xing. It's okay if Shi Xing responds quickly, but if he is slow, Chi Yao will wave his hand and Shi Xing will automatically return to him and Fu Qing to avoid disputes.

The free fireworks were set off at the end, by the moat of Ancheng.

When checking out at the game hall, the games that Chi Yao had played seemed to have particularly high scores, so the staff of the game hall asked them to wait while they went to the machine to settle the crystal coins for the high scores. Yun Wu was afraid that he would not be able to get a good viewing position, so he went down first. At Chi Yao's signal, Hua Li and Xiang Heze also left first.

As a result, some malfunctions occurred during the settlement process. Fearing that Chi Yao would get impatient, Fu Qing asked him and Shi Xing to leave first and stayed to deal with it.

Chi Yao really had no interest in dealing with these, so he nodded.

He took the suspension ladder downstairs with Shi Xing. There were only two of them, and it suddenly became quiet around them.

Chi Yao said abruptly, "I think you treat both of them the same."

Oh, he was talking about the match, and Shi Xing answered without any burden.

"Both officers are good."

Chi Yao's smoky gray eyes turned, staring at Shi Xing for a moment, and summed up accurately: "Perfunctory."

The evaluation was general and vague, and it sounded like an excuse.

Shi Xing did not refute it. After a period of getting along with each other, he was able to retort, "But I'm telling the truth."

Chi Yao did not comment, "That's not what I wanted to ask."

Knowing that Chi Yao would not care about trivial matters, Shi Xing smiled and passed it over.

Chi Yao really didn't care, and when Shi Xing stopped talking, he didn't mention it either.

When they arrived at the river, there were a lot more floating stalls selling things, and many novel and interesting gadgets attracted the attention of tourists.

Passing by a candy shop, Shi Xing stared at it with curiosity for a long time, and Chi Yao bought Shi Xing a string of edible candy paintings.

It was made of crystal fruit, and Shi Xing could see the beautiful energy flow on it.

He took a bite and it was delicious.

"Your Highness, don't you want a string?"

Chi Yao laughed, "No, it's something that children like."

The tone of his voice had already classified Shi Xing as a junior.

Shi Xing wrinkled his nose and muttered, "I'm actually an adult."

Chi Yao ended the conversation with one sentence, "But in my eyes, you're still a child."

Chi Yao turned around and said in a good mood, "My nephew also likes to eat this."

"When I took him out to play as a child, he always found ways to lure me to the store."

"But you're better than him."

Shi Xing: "?"

Chi Yao: "You won't point at the candy string and tell me you want them all."

Shi Xing: "..."

Seeing Shi Xing's silence, Chi Yao smiled. His smile was so real that it made his smoky gray eyes look very warm.

The atmosphere was very good and harmonious.

Shi Xing was dazed for a moment in this gentle sight, and the fireworks were set off, just reflected in Chi Yao's eyes.

Shi Xing himself didn't know what he was thinking.

When he came back to his senses, the question had already been asked.

In an inexplicable impulse, his throat slid, and he asked nervously and softly: "Your Highness, have you ever thought about matching with the Blue Star people?"

The author has something to say:

Xu Jin: Stars, that's it, go!

Background board Nephew protested: Uncle, can you not mention the things when we were young?
