"Mm." Jiang Zheyu smiled faintly.
Actually, Zexun can ignore her and she'll be fine.
“These pink roses are just as beautiful as your outfit today.” Jiang Zheyu looked at the pink roses in her arms, then at Zexun, and said honestly. Her tone was very ordinary, as if she were stating a fact.
"It is my honor that Miss Jiang finds my outfit pleasing to the eye today." Ze Xun's beautiful red eyes curved slightly.
Feng Qi watched from the side, his dark eyes filled with coldness and mockery.
A scheming man, dressed in a flamboyant manner.
“Yu Yu, let’s go buy flowers.” Su Yan grasped Jiang Zheyu’s hand as if asserting his ownership, his gaze coldly falling on Ze Xun. “Judge Ze Xun must be quite busy, so let’s not bother him.”
As Feng Qi watched Su Yan openly holding Jiang Yuyu's hand, a surge of resentment rose within him.
Isn't he just taking advantage of being the first beastman?
So what? From now on, we'll only see the newcomers laughing. He's that newcomer!
“Commander Su, you can’t say things like that.” Ze Xun smiled innocently. “I specifically took the day off to see Miss Jiang today.”
"She has an appointment today, so she might not be able to entertain you." Su Yan smiled slightly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
“Commander Su’s word is not enough.” Ze Xun smiled calmly and gently, but a hint of coldness seemed to flash across his red eyes. He shifted his gaze from Su Yan to Jiang Zheyu, and his eyes softened again. “I have bought flowers many times and know a little about them. What kind of flowers would Miss Jiang like to buy? I can accompany you. I happen to be free today.”
In an instant, all three pairs of eyes fell on Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu felt ashamed.
It's just buying flowers.
"Come on, let's go buy flowers together." Jiang Zheyu quickly squeezed out of their triangular encirclement.
After Jiang Zheyu left, the three men looked at each other, and their expressions all turned cold.
Su Yan's red eyes were obviously gloomy and cold.
Feng Qi's dark eyes looked at the two trashy people with a mocking gaze.
Seeking a pair of calm and wise red eyes, a calmness tinged with detachment and indifference towards them.
"Judge Zexun, the case of the female killing her beast husband hasn't been resolved yet, has it? What brings you here?" Beneath his fine, wispy red hair, Su Yan's red eyes revealed an undisguised coldness.
“Everyone needs rest, and I’m no exception.” Ze Xun smiled faintly. “Besides, I’ll go back and work on the case later, so it won’t interfere with my superiors’ court proceedings.”
His tone shifted slightly: "Commander Su, weren't you planning to wipe out the space pirate den? Why are you still dragging your feet?"
“A day or two won’t take much time. Everyone has their own expertise. If you don’t understand tactics, don’t make random comments.” Su Yan’s eyes were indifferent.
“That was because I crossed the line.” Ze Xun seemed to be apologizing, but his tone didn’t convey any real apology.
"Tch, don't you know what first come, first served?" Feng Qi was about to walk towards Jiang Yuyu, but Ze Xun was blocking his way. He walked over and bumped into Ze Xun's shoulder without any politeness. His dark eyes looked at Ze Xun. "I was here first, so move aside? Don't you understand?"
This sentence seems to contain two layers of meaning: one is to tell Zexun to make way, and the other is to imply that he arrived first and that Zexun should get lost.
Feng Qi was about to walk forward after saying this when someone suddenly grabbed his shoulder.
Ze Xun's shoulder was pushed aside, and his expression turned cold. He grabbed Feng Qi, who was about to walk towards Jiang Zheyu.
“The one who isn’t loved is the one who comes later.” Ze Xun pressed his hand firmly on Feng Qi’s shoulder and walked past him, his tone light and airy. “Besides, it’s not certain who came first.”
After saying this, Ze Xun walked towards Jiang Zheyu first, without looking at Feng Qi Tieqing's expression behind him.
Su Yan and Feng Qi also walked towards Jiang Zheyu.
So Jiang Zheyu was admiring the flowers when three more men appeared beside her.
"These pink orchids are beautiful. Their flower language is nobility and elegance, symbolizing a happy and beautiful life. However, they also symbolize pure love, and people use them to express 'I love you.'" Ze Xun spoke slowly beside Jiang Zheyu, his voice gentle and soft.
Jiang Zheyu paused for a moment: "So, Mr. Ze also knows about flowers?"
“A hobby.” Ze Xun looked at her with a smile in his gentle yet warm eyes.
"Doesn't that card have an introduction?" Feng Qi said with a forced smile. "Do you need to explain it to me?"
What is he showing off? Is he showing off his extensive knowledge?
What's the use of knowing all this if it doesn't protect the females?
"It's just an art of conversation. I'm just chatting with Miss Jiang." Ze Xun smiled harmlessly. "Captain Feng can also learn about these things in his spare time, so that he won't run out of things to talk about with his mistress in the future."
"Justice Zexun truly lives up to his reputation as the King of Hell in the judicial system," Feng Qi said with a forced smile. "He certainly knows how to talk."
Jiang Zheyu sensed a strong smell of gunpowder around him.
"Ayan, let's buy these orchids." Jiang Zheyu quickly looked at Su Yan, intending to finish buying them quickly and return to the palace.
"Okay." Su Yan looked down at her and responded softly.
The orchids were purchased quickly, Su Yan paid for them, and then the shop assistant delivered the flowers directly to the villa.
"I'll have someone plant these orchids in our villa then," Su Yan said, patting Jiang Zheyu's head.
"Mm." Jiang Zheyu nodded.
The group walked out of the flower shop.
"Mr. Ze, we'll head back to the palace now. See you next time." Jiang Zheyu turned to look at Ze Xun as he boarded the hovercar.
"Time always flies when we're together." Ze Xun smiled wryly as he approached Jiang Zheyu and smiled slightly. "The Star Gazing Tower is open now, and a shooting star is predicted for the day after tomorrow. I wonder if Miss Jiang would do me the honor of watching the shooting star with me at the Star Gazing Tower the day after tomorrow? I'll be waiting for Miss Jiang's reply via her personal terminal."
His expression made it seem like he was a backup option, someone you could come to him anytime.
Jiang Zheyu paused for a moment, then could only manage a dry laugh: "I'll go back and think about it some more."
Seeing Jiang Zheyu's hesitation, Ze Xun didn't say much. He just stood there and watched their hovercar completely disappear from his sight before slowly leaving.
“Yu Yu, if you want to see shooting stars, I can take you to the abandoned planet 253. You can see shooting stars all year round there.” Su Yan glanced at Jiang Zheyu.
"Weren't you going to wipe out the space pirates' den?" Jiang Zheyu asked quietly.
“You’re back. I can take you there.” Su Yan pondered for a moment, then looked at Jiang Zheyu.
"Okay, then let's go see it together sometime when we have time," Jiang Zheyu simply said.
She couldn't possibly ask Su Yan to skip annihilating that space pirate den and instead go watch some shooting star with her.
