Chapter 698: Lanqi admits that Talia is cute

Talia's body was rigid, and she could only stare at Ranci.

The originally soft lighting in the restaurant now seemed particularly dazzling. The bright crystal chandeliers reflected dazzling light, like a ruthless spotlight, enveloping them and leaving them nowhere to hide.

Just when Talia felt helpless and every breath became heavy and difficult, she suddenly saw Lanqi become calm and composed again.

She also seemed to have found a savior and held Lanqi's hand tightly.

"No problem, please switch to the Four-Cut Waterfall Cheese Handmade Beef Burger."

Lanqi first calmly said to the waiter, then slowly turned his attention to the communication magic card, "It's like this, you know Tata likes the peripherals of the Animal Forest series very much, so today I ordered her a set meal recommended by the clerk. Although it may not be enough, she can get a doll and a lottery ticket. As for the couple accessories, today happens to be a festival in the Person Kingdom."

He spoke to Hyperion methodically.

"right."

Talia added.

Although she felt that Lanqi's words were insulting her again, she had to be thankful for his superb emergency speech skills.

Lanci is undoubtedly a public relations expert!

As long as she eats the couple's meal alone, Hyperion won't misunderstand that she and Lanci are a couple.

"I see."

Hyperion felt relieved when she heard that.

If you think about it carefully, Lanci and Tata probably wouldn't want any jewelry. They usually seem to dislike each other, and it's even more impossible for them to wear the same couple jewelry in Ikerit.

"But are you two going out on a date today?"

Hyperion asked again in confusion.

When she was a child, she was brought to Pariah, the flower capital of the Persen Kingdom, by Miaiya many times, so she is relatively familiar with this place. Today is the fireworks festival of the Persen Kingdom, and most of the time, couples will travel together.

It was beyond her expectation that Lanqi and Tata would go out to a restaurant to eat together today. It was just like a date between lovers.

"We usually stay in Ikrit, so we don't pay much attention to festivals in other countries. For us, they are no different from our daily lives."

Talia answered helplessly and naturally.

First of all, it is important to reject the ambiguous meaning of today.

She has also learned some of Lanqi's ways of thinking.

"Besides, I was a little sleepy today. I went out to work for a while before I realized that today was my day off."

Lanqi said something beside him with a hint of fatigue in his voice.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ranchi. You should have a good rest."

Hyperion quickly said with concern, as if she couldn't believe that Lanci would make such a mistake. He must be really tired.

“…”

Talia felt that this man had gone too far and had deceived Xiao Xiu.

Now it was Hyperion who began to comfort him.

No, it seems that he didn't lie, he was telling the truth.

How on earth did he do it! Talia looked at Lanqi with a complicated look, as if she was looking at a scumbag, but when she thought about it carefully, it was she who was holding his hand, and he was cooperating with her to get through the difficulties, so she had no right to say anything about him.

At this time, I feel safe staying with Lanqi, because he can solve the problem, and the two of them can always complement each other in critical moments.

Just as they were chatting normally, the atmosphere began to improve.

"Mom, they are holding hands. How are we going to eat later?"

A little girl looked over there and asked her mother.

She seemed to have been curious for a long time, and had been staring at Lanqi and Talia from time to time.

The little girl's eyes were pure and unconcealed. She tilted her head and blinked her big eyes. Her innocent face was full of confusion. She had obviously noticed the unusual atmosphere between the man and woman.

As soon as they asked the question, they were stopped by the parents and gave the two of them an apologetic look.

After apologizing, the mother quickly leaned over and whispered something in her daughter's ear, her tone a mixture of blame and comfort. After hearing this, the little girl pursed her lips and nodded, not quite understanding.

This suffocates Lanci and Talia.

This voice, which was neither near nor far away, seemed to have been heard by Hyperion on the other end of the communication.

"Haha, you guys are all couples, right? How come there are still stupid couples like this, holding hands while eating."

Hyperion laughed.

This is what I saw at the fireworks festival in the Persian Kingdom before.

“…”

The two men began to sit in jail again, and gradually they felt their hands getting sweatier and sweatier.

Lanqi and Talia were sure that the communication could not continue. This restaurant was full of dangers! "Why are you guys not talking...?"

A sense of uneasiness welled up in Hyperion's heart.

It is unlikely that the people holding hands are Ranchi and Tata.

"I'm looking at you idiot!"

Talia looked at Lanqi and answered in a low voice.

"……Me too."

Lanqi kept a half-smile on his face, and at this moment reminded himself not to bother with Talia, and said.

"Don't let anyone find out."

Hyperion suddenly felt that she was worrying too much and breathed a sigh of relief.

At least she couldn't imagine Ranchi and Tata, who were always quarreling, holding hands.

Even every time she opened the door, she could see that Lanqi and Tata seemed to be incompatible and kept their distance, so she didn't have to worry about seeing any unbearable scene between the two when she opened the door.

"By the way, is Mr. Cat here?"

Hyperion felt that she had a lot of doubts today.

But if she didn't ask, she still felt a little uneasy.

Ranchi and Tata wouldn’t go out on a date alone...right?

"Yes, yes."

Lanqi listened to Hyperion's slightly suspicious question and felt like he had found a life-saving straw.

With the cat boss around, it wasn't really a date between him and Talia.

He looked at his shadow and stamped his feet lightly, signaling it to jump out.

Even if Boss Cat suddenly ran out sometimes, he would sneak into his shadow for a while. Most of the time, he didn't notice when Boss Cat sneaked into his shadow.

However.

Shadow didn't respond for a long time.

Both Ranch and Talia looked down at the shadow.

"……?"

They both gradually looked up at each other, sweat began to appear on their foreheads, and their hands were clenched tighter.

Where is Boss Cat? It seems that Boss Cat is really not here! The more I talk about it, the bigger the misunderstanding seems to be!!

"Hello?"

Hyperion seemed unsure whether the signal was good or not, and her voice was filled with even deeper doubt.

I haven't heard from Boss Cat for so long.

If the two of them really sent Boss Cat away today, then what exactly were they planning to do? The more she thought about it, the more flustered Hyperion became, and she even began to have wild thoughts.

Lanci and Talia listened to Hyperion's increasingly rapid breathing, and they felt that they might be seriously misunderstood today!

But there was no sign of the little black cat around.

No one knew who Hyperion learned her divergent thinking from, but they could feel that Hyperion was daydreaming through the communication.

They won’t be able to explain themselves when they get back !

Lanqi thought quickly and handed the magic card to Talia's mouth.

Talia looked at him in disbelief.

She understood what Lanqi meant in an instant! Only she could imitate the childish voice of Boss Cat!

Lanqi's pleading eyes seemed to tell her that she was the only one who could rely on him at this time.

Let’s not talk about whether Talia can do it or not. As for imitating voices, the top singers and poets in the demon world can definitely do it, so Talia should be able to do it too, it just depends on whether she is willing to do it.

As she struggled, Talia felt more and more panicked.

"Hyperion meow! I'm coming meow!"

Talia clamped her throat and imitated the cat boss' voice with a blushing face.

She felt like dying after saying this.

"puff!"

When Lanqi heard Talia talking nonsense, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Talia grabbed Lanqi's hand hard and glared at him in shame and anger.

If it weren't for him, how could I have done such a ridiculous thing as imitating the cat's boss's voice? He could actually laugh at this time!

At this moment, Lanqi pursed his lips and tightened his jaw, as if he was trying his best to endure something while also thinking hard.

"Boss Cat, I miss you so much."

Hyperion felt like she had received a quick-acting heart-saving pill. When she confirmed that Boss Cat was with them, her heart was immediately at ease.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"I miss you too meow!"

Talia's voice became more shrill.

“……!”

Lanqi tried hard to hold back his laughter, lowered his head and rested his forehead on the table, his shoulders shaking constantly.

He really didn't expect it to be so funny at first.

…

Far outside the restaurant, on a small boat on the riverside.

Etienne rowed the boat leisurely and leisurely. Rosalinda, with a little black cat on her head, signaled Etienne to go back and forth from time to time.

"What are they talking about? Tata's face is so red."

Rosalinda only saw Talia answering the call through the telescope with flushed cheeks, and Lanqi was laughing desperately beside her, as if Lanqi's happiness could be conveyed to Tata through his palms, and Tata was also holding his hand tightly.

Too bad they were too far apart.

Using detection magic at this distance would definitely be discovered by the two people in the restaurant.

“I can’t hear clearly, but the atmosphere is great!”

Etienne looked towards the restaurant and replied with a smile.

"Meow... It can't be Hyperion calling."

Looking at Lanqi and Tata's strange reactions, Boss Cat had a rough idea of ​​who was on the other end of the line.

No way, Teacher Dalan, you can really laugh. If there is any mistake, you will be in trouble.

"I just said that they should have a date today."

Etiou couldn't help but use the video crystal to record this beautiful moment.

Along the way, she took many photos of the two holding hands.

When we go to Hutton Kingdom, I will share the photos with Lanqi and the others.

…

A sofa booth by the window in the Zhiriqiao Inn restaurant in Cologne.

The restaurant is built by the river, and the transparent floor-to-ceiling glass windows provide an unobstructed view of the Selina River. The river surface reflects the lush trees and mountain flowers on both sides. Occasionally, a small boat passes by leisurely, stirring up ripples and adding a bit of liveliness to the quiet scenery.

Talia was still talking to Ikerite with a communication magic card that occasionally glowed with purple light.

"Boss Cat, I'm Antanas! Will you bring us employee gifts?"

Hyperion seemed to have heard the cat boss's voice. Antanas came over and asked excitedly beside Hyperion.

"Everything is ready, meow, don't worry, Antanas!"

Talia continued to suppress her shame and answered in the cat boss' energetic voice.

She never thought she would have to talk to her best friend like this.

If she was recognized, she could just die.

Normally when Hyperion goes out, she is accompanied by either Shinora or Antanas, and she is always accompanied by a great demon bodyguard.

"...What's your voice today, Mr. Cat?"

Antanas seemed to take the microphone away and took a look, muttering to himself in confusion.

"What's wrong, meow?"

Talia's heart was about to jump out of her chest as she forced herself to hold her voice.

"It feels so cute."

Antanas couldn't tell what was wrong, but he just felt that there was a slight difference from usual.

"I've always been cute, meow."

Talia said in a childish voice.

Lanqi could hardly bear it anymore.

He lay on the dining table and pounded the sofa.

His trembling laughter made Talia feel even more desperate, and she wanted to take him with her when she died.

"By the way, Boss Cat, Lanqi, Tata, as a barrier expert, I have now joined Hyperion and Shinora's Duke's Mansion exploration team. After Shinora broke the outermost barrier, we found that there is a large space under Hyperion's Duke's house. We don't know what is hidden inside. Once we crack it, we will share it with you as soon as possible!"

Antanas said to the communication side with excitement.

Now the three of them explore the Duke's Palace of Alansar every day. If it weren't for the fact that high-level magic cannot be used casually in the city of Ikerita, especially in such an important place as the Duke's Palace, they could have demolished it even faster. But even so, they still have a lot of fun, as if they had discovered an advanced hidden dungeon in the center of the city-state.

"Okay, we'll study the card making here and then go back. I think we'll buy the tickets for the next two days."

Talia regained her voice and spoke calmly.

The epic statue of Will and Love in the Temple of Love in the Flower City Pariah can gain a limited spiritual blessing by praying to the statue, and there is also a small chance of achieving a slight success rate increase effect on the creation of spiritual magic cards.

Putting aside the timing and people, if they could make the card in Huadu, they would still try their best to choose Huadu to take advantage of the geographical location to record the shadow weaving of Kaliela before going back.

But I always feel there is little hope.

"Then you two stay safe and have fun!"

Hyperion instructed.

Unless a war suddenly breaks out in the Kremer Empire, Lanci and Talia should be able to return in early September.

The transit fee for cross-border communications is very high. After such a short call, it has already cost quite a bit of money, which is quite a luxury for Hyperion who has always lived frugally.

"Okay, don't worry."

Talia and Ranci both answered.

After a simple farewell, the cross-border communication ended.

Talia and Lanqi also breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back on the sofa, feeling relieved that they had survived a great ordeal.

But Lanqi seemed unable to forget Talia's voice just now, and couldn't help laughing again.

"why are you laughing……"

Talia's voice gradually turned cold.

"I miss you too meow!"

Lanci imitated Talia's tone just now and spoke to her without fear.

"Tata, you are so cute!"

He still seemed unsatisfied and added another sentence.

Just looking at Talia's expression, he felt it was so delicious.

"I've always been cute, meow."

Talia seemed to have blushed, and Lanqi kept repeating it in her ear.

She lay motionless, clenching her trembling fists, with her head down and breathing continuously.

Tolerate.

She will definitely be able to hold back today!

If she couldn't help it, she couldn't imagine what she would do to Lanqi.
