She said this so that Shang Duojin wouldn't think that she could stop treasuring her after agreeing.
After all, when she was a streamer on X site, she encountered too many couples who didn't cherish what they had after they got it.
That's just human nature.
They always act very attentive and eager when they can't get something, but once they get it, their attitude completely changes.
Shang Duojin understood the deeper meaning in Shu Qingqing's words and promised her in a very serious tone for the first time: "I can assure you that as long as it's not you who unilaterally wants to break up with me, I will never have such a thought."
He felt that there might be other girls like Shu Qingqing who understood him and could joke around with him, but they would be very hard to find.
Shu Qingqing met his eyes, her gaze becoming a little unnatural: "Well, you'd better keep your word!"
The news that the two were together quickly reached Qiao Mei and Ao Cang's ears during lunch that day.
They had already returned home from Shang Duojin's house, so they weren't surprised to hear the news.
It's just that Shu Qingqing and Shang Duojin are both, in a sense, the kind of people who are quite straightforward and say what they mean.
After resolving the issue between the two, Qiao Mei finished her lunch, glanced at the time, and told Ao Cang that she was about to leave.
"If nothing unexpected happens, you'll be back tonight. Are you really not planning to come to Xu Heyu's house with me?"
Ao Cang wanted to go, but he couldn't.
He didn't want Qiao Mei to feel too much pressure.
"Okay then, come here, let me give you a kiss before I leave."
She noticed his hesitation and apprehension, but didn't call him out on it.
After opening her arms to him, she kissed his cheek and lips twice as he leaned in.
She had just drunk lychee-flavored juice, and her kiss carried that fragrance.
Ao Cang knew she had noticed his sensitivity. Looking at her lips that had just withdrawn, he suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Half an hour later.
When Qiao Mei came out of the house, her breathing was a little disordered, and her lips were a little red and swollen.
However, her worries dissipated considerably, and she boarded the aircraft and flew directly to the house that Xu Heyu had purchased on the Federal Star.
He now frequently goes on missions to the interstellar military and can no longer return to his villa on the Imperial Star as often as before.
When Qiao Mei arrived at the location, Xu Heyu seemed to have just returned from a mission, reeking of the blood of interstellar monsters.
Their blood smelled very strongly of rotting corpses.
She was just standing outside his door, and before she even rang the doorbell, the smell made her feel nauseous.
She forced herself to do it several times and ate a few mints before finally ringing the doorbell.
"They're here."
When he came out, he had changed into a beige loungewear outfit, and his hair seemed to have grown quite a bit longer than when Qiao Mei last saw him.
The body has a strong orange-scented shower gel fragrance.
Upon realizing it was her, his blue eyes instantly lit up, and even the weariness on his face lessened considerably.
"Little Rose, you're here."
Xu Heyu stepped aside, and after Qiao Mei came in and closed the door, she asked her if she had eaten lunch.
"I've eaten. If you haven't eaten yet, you should eat first. I'm not in a hurry."
Judging from his appearance, it didn't seem like he had eaten anything; his lips were pale and bloodless, and his eyes were bloodshot.
She saw the clothes he had thrown in the laundry basket, and the equally exhausted Golden Claw White Wolf Chasing Wind resting on the carpet. She asked him, "Haven't you been sleeping for a long time?"
"I feel you're not in a very good mental state. Why don't you go to sleep first, and I'll check what's wrong with the mecha you made?"
Checking out the mecha takes quite a while, and Xu Heyu was indeed very tired. He nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll take my leave. Just call me on the personal terminal if anything happens."
Xu Heyu's house on the Federation Star is even bigger than the one on the Empire Star, and it has a dedicated control room for storing mechs.
Qiao Mei opened the control room and went inside. The first thing she saw was the Twin-Winged Wolf mech, which was in hibernation mode and was more than twice the size of her Black Crow Boy.
The mecha has a pair of white, bird-feather-like wings on its back, and its wolf-like body is curled up in place.
If it weren't for the very obvious metallic sheen, one might really mistake it for a real wolf.
Qiao Mei activated her computer bracelet and connected to the [Double-Winged Wolf] mecha. She entered the activation code Xu Heyu had given her, and the mecha was quickly activated. The wolf's eyes lit up with a dark blue light that resembled Xu Heyu's eyes.
[Mech starting up.........]
Looking at the progress bar that was still jumping towards 100%, Qiao Mei matched the questions she had found by looking at the photos of the mecha model with the questions on the mecha body and checked them one by one.
Only after confirming that there were no major discrepancies did she begin the repairs.
The replacement of larger assembly materials requires the mech to be fully activated before it can be fully assembled.
Xu Heyu arrived three hours later, around 3 p.m.
He could have continued resting, but it wouldn't be right to leave Qiao Mei, a guest, waiting there indefinitely.
Since the Golden Claw White Wolf Chasing the Wind had nothing to do with it, he didn't wake it up and came over by himself.
Please confirm whether you wish to replace the materials. Note that once this step is completed, it cannot be changed a second time.
As the mechanical sound rang out, Qiao Mei also saw Xu Heyu, who had finished resting, coming over. So she jumped off the control panel, took off the control gloves in her hand, and walked towards him.
The girl was wearing a light red pullover sweater for autumn, paired with simple, fitted black pants, and her black boots made a heavy thud as she walked.
To make it easier to control the mecha, she seemed to be wearing the repair cap he used to wear, and had all her hair pulled back inside.
There was a lot of sweat on his forehead.
"You're here just in time. What do you think would be a suitable replacement material?"
Qiao Mei's red eyes reflected Xu Heyu's slightly dazed face. Thinking he was still asleep, she waved her hand in front of his face and asked, "Xu Heyu, what are you staring at?"
Xu Heyu snapped out of her reverie, concealing the strange look in her eyes, and looked at the light brain screen projected by her, pointing to one of the materials.
"Yes, I'm planning to replace it with this one for you. Compared to the one you used before, it's not only cheaper to make, but it's also a better match for the characteristics of the [Double-Winged Wolf]."
Seeing that she was about to leave again as she was talking, Xu Heyu looked at the repair hat that she was still wearing and wanted to say that it was one he often wore and hadn't been washed much, so he should get her a new one.
But fearing that telling him would make her overthink, he could only swallow his words and sigh.
The modification of the mecha cannot be completed in a short time.
Before long, it got dark.
Xu Heyu prepared dinner early and asked Qiao Mei to come and eat first, and then she could make the changes.
"After it's fixed, there's something else I'd like to tell you."
