In the lounge.
In the gap between the crowds, Airola sat quietly on the bench, with her hands folded on the knight's spear on her knees.
Her long light golden hair fell down her shoulders, the ends of her hair fluttering in the wind. The soft glow of the magic lamp shone on her delicate and flawless face, making her look like a girl figurine from an anime.
Many mechanics walked past her with astonishment in their eyes. Some were even brave enough to approach her and talk to her, but were ultimately dissuaded by her indifferent aura, which was like an iceberg.
She just kept waiting for someone quietly, as if she couldn't sense the passage of time.
After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight sound of a door opening in the distance.
What followed was the sound of gentle footsteps.
The footsteps were extremely faint amid the noisy sounds of the crowd, but Aurora could easily distinguish them.
"Finished?"
...
...
Looking at the young man walking in front of her, Aurora's beautiful blue eyes, which looked like a thousand-year-old glacier, finally showed some life.
"Yeah, it's done."
Xia nodded calmly.
"Su Lun went in just now. Did he do anything to you?"
As she spoke, Airola moved closer to Char and sniffed carefully at the collar.
No perfume smell.
After doing all this, she looked Xia up and down carefully.
There were no jet-black hairs at the collar, but instead, there were a few strands of her own light blonde hair.
"Let's go. It's a rare opportunity for the original trio to reunite here. Let's go have some familiar barbecue."
"oh."
Airola nodded with satisfaction and followed Char obediently.
As he looked at Su Lun beside him, who had a well-behaved and peaceful face and wrapped himself tightly, his gaze also softened a little.
I didn't expect that with such a good opportunity, Su Lun did nothing.
It seems that I had indeed misunderstood my good sister before. As long as she doesn't cheat on me, we can still be good friends.
…
I'm sorry, Xiao Ai.
At the same time, a slight sense of guilt arose in Su Lun's heart.
Of course, it was just a little bit.
More than that, it is joy and pleasure.
This round was a big victory for Su Lun.
To this day, Su Lun has forgotten when he first fell in love with Xia.
Is it the moment when you are brought out of the slums and served creamy soup and toasted bread on a clean and simple wooden table?
Or was it the countless late nights when, by the dim candlelight, he used discarded mechanical parts to piece together and complete his own enlightenment as a mechanic?
But no matter what, Su Lun believed that her love for Xia Ya was no less than anyone else's.
However, when she was accepted by Char and Airola and began to truly integrate into that simple little family...
Su Lun suddenly realized how great his disadvantage was.
She was born in Lukia and knew nothing about the disaster in Ceylon.
However, the bond between Char and Airola, who had experienced the disaster together, was unshakable.
The experience of being playmates in childhood, the vows and promises made in the fire of Ceylon, the tacit understanding between the two without words... these are all memories that belong only to Char and Airola, with no room for a third party to interfere.
It made Su Lun extremely envious, even jealous, but also difficult to reach.
Of course, Char doesn't mind sharing his warmth with more people... and his dream of writing a "Guide to the Evaluation of Alien Customs" is a secret that both Airola and Su Lun know well.
But Su Lun was unwilling to give up.
I was unwilling to accept that no matter what I did, I would always be ranked behind that blonde girl and be inferior to her forever.
She wanted to be the first in Char's heart.
Not inferior to others, well-deserved first place.
So, on that day...Su Lun chose to retreat in order to advance.
Resisting his reluctance and attachment, he left Char's side.
Because Su Lun knew that if she continued to follow Xia step by step, she would never have the chance to surpass Airola.
Arriving alone in a strange country, heading to the Holy Court, and even bearing the misunderstanding of her best friend, this is undoubtedly the most rugged and difficult road... Even though she still likes Char, she may have to pay ten times, or even a hundred times the price.
However, this is Su Lun's only choice. Airola's lead is too great... If she doesn't do this, she will never be able to truly overtake and become the number one in Char's heart.
Of course, such a choice is also a huge gamble.
Leaving Char's side, leaving Char and Airola alone for six years...
If in these six years, the two of them had already taken that step and made the matter a fait accompli... then Su Lun himself would have become a joke.
What Su Lun was betting on was Xiao Ai's arrogant and timid character.
Even though they had such a huge advantage, they still couldn't turn it into victory.
It's like they have taken four Earth Dragons, the Dragon Soul and the Baron, and destroyed all the high ground, but are still reluctant to destroy their home base, giving them a huge advantage and then losing the ancient dragon and making a comeback.
During these six years, every time Su Lun communicated with Char, she was nervous, fearing that she would see a wedding ring on Char's left ring finger, or that a blonde girl would appear on the other side of the communication screen with a slightly bulging belly and wearing maternity clothes.
If that were the case, Su Lun would have no choice but to cry and admit that he was a loser.
Fortunately,
She won the bet.
During these six years, Su Lun successfully completed the transformation from a little girl taken in by Xia to the radiant and beautiful Saint of the Dawn.
Directly transformed from an ugly duckling into a white swan.
And now, they meet again after six years. Relying on the impact of the huge contrast in status and the freshness of a long separation, Su Lun successfully completes the marriage with Xia Ya under Xiao Ai's nose.
The progress, which had been stagnant for six years, was advanced by 70% in one go thanks to the strategy of retreating to advance.
When the affairs of the Holy See are concluded and we meet again...
Then they can launch a general offensive in one go, capture cities and territories, and achieve great success in one fell swoop.
Hundreds of riders raided Ai’s camp, and their feat shocked the world!
Big victory.
A complete and total victory.
Thinking of this, the black-haired saint's steps became lighter and she walked in front of Aurora unconsciously.
Then, Airola saw the snow-white neck that was faintly visible under Su Lun's black hair.
Also, the red kiss marks on the back of the neck.
"Su Lun, what's the red mark on your neck?"
Airola couldn't help but speak in confusion.
As soon as these words came out, Su Lun's steps froze.
Oops, the car flipped over.
It’s not that Su Lun couldn’t think of using alchemical potion to remove the kiss mark... Mainly because she wanted to relive the violent feeling of Char’s just now, so she kept it and was reluctant to remove it.
Originally, it wasn't very obvious because of her long hair, but just now, in her high spirits, she accidentally walked in front of Aurora and was immediately exposed.
However, from what Xiao Ai said, I don’t know what’s going on?
That's right, with Xiao Ai's awkward personality, even if she wanted to take the initiative to show some benefits, it would probably be the usual knee-kissing or something like that. It's impossible for her to think of such an intense way of playing.
Thinking of this, Su Lun's mind raced and he spoke calmly.
"I was bitten by a mosquito."
"It's already midway through spring, and the number of mosquitoes has indeed started to increase... In addition, the smelting furnace in the machinery factory is heating up, so mosquitoes are gathering in warm places."
"I can't help it. Mechanical pets can only provide spiritual power feedback, but not physical fitness enhancement. I still have the skin of an ordinary person, and I can still be penetrated by mosquitoes."
"is that so?"
Aurora shook her head in confusion.
She is not a mechanic, so she doesn't know much about the physical fitness of mechanics, which is no different from that of ordinary people.
Only the lazy white cat on Char's shoulder, which seemed to be dozing off, quietly extended its mental power to sense everything behind it, and seemed to be in tears.
Although Sylvia herself is also a novice, she is still able to see some things clearly as a bystander.
God was bitten by a mosquito.
I was just a little lazy, why did Brother Xia plant so many strawberries on this Saint of the Dawn?
It was obviously not this intense when we were intimate in the spirit world.
But what can she do, she is just a kitten now.
The white cat's tail drooped down, and it flicked Char's neck with its furry tail.
She was angry, the kind that could only be cured by being stroked and hugged by Brother Xia for half an hour.
