After nearly five minutes of brain overload, Xingyao suddenly spoke:
"I, I don't understand..."
He shook his head.
"Are you saying that because I'm a good fit?"
When the words came out of his mouth, even Xingyao's own heart twitched.
He wanted to date Jin Yi, to date her, to kiss her, and to be trapped in the cool pheromones. He wanted it so much.
But what is marriage? What is birth?!
Why did these appear along with the confession he had been waiting for for so long?
Is Jinyi saying this because he's old enough and needs someone to marry?
Two voices appeared in my heart.
One was howling frantically: "What are you doing? The person you like has confessed his love to you! Say yes!"
Another one was crying madly: He might just think I'm suitable! A ready-made "boyfriend" and a ready-made marriage partner, and I just like him purely, even without a contract or marriage!
"I think I need to think about it again!" Xingyao pulled her hand back abruptly, "I... I'm not that fast..."
As soon as the words came out, it was Jin Yi's turn to tremble in the hand he was holding.
"What did you say...."
His voice was trembling.
"Xingyao...I..."
Jin Yi had no mistakes in the first half of his life. He thought ten steps ahead and planned everything clearly.
Every goal, every detail.
From studying to employment, and then to which positions to rotate through before becoming an administrative minister, what fields to understand, and what policy direction to promote after becoming Pei Ji's right-hand man...
He planned it all very well.
If possible, he could even plan how old he would be when he would be buried and where his grave would be located.
The only accident was that on the night not long after he arrived at the Mineral Department, he met Xingyao, who was frustrated in life.
From then on, his life list had an unexpected option that he had to consider.
But he still followed the list step by step.
However, at this moment, after Xingyao said the four words "I'll think about it again", Jinyi's life was empty.
"I'm not saying this because you're suitable for me..." Jin Yi tried his best to stay rational and look for the reason why Xingyao refused from the few words just exchanged.
At this moment, someone exclaimed:
"The insect nest has cracked!!"
“It’s Han Ying!!”
Xingyao looked up when she heard the voice, anxiously searching for Han Ying's trace on the screen of the ruins of the old capital.
Jin Yi choked, swallowed his words, and looked at the screen.
"ah……"
The three little maids looked away in disappointment.
"Minister Jinyi chose a super bad time and a super bad way to express his feelings," Phil commented.
Demi and Anya nodded.
…
Meanwhile, the old capital lies in ruins.
A strong white light suddenly burst out from the dark cracks of the insect nest, illuminating the black night sky like daylight.
The shock wave swept in with the power to dissolve everything, and dust and debris flew everywhere.
Two mechas flew out of the crack one after the other, breaking through the chaotic gray fog and floating under the stars.
The insect secretions spread out, and the disgusting smell was transmitted into the mecha along the mental synapses. Shen Que coughed twice in disgust.
"What are you doing in there?" Pei Ji's voice came from the headset. "I can handle it myself."
Eclipse retracted the still hot muzzle, spread its wings, and cleared the residue in the air.
The mental power opens the barrier at the same time.
An invisible barrier that was invisible to the naked eye appeared outside another white mecha, isolating the smell of insects from outside.
Shen Que said indifferently, "Someone said he wanted his commander to stand with him."
Pei Ji was stunned for a moment, and his voice weakened a bit: "I'm talking about others, why are you just listening to them..."
Shen Que snorted coldly: “Save you from saying that I’m a little kitten hiding behind the battlefield.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Ying spread her wings and disappeared into the night sky. When she reappeared, the big white bird had already flown out of Pei Ji's protective circle on its own.
"Wow..." Pei Ji controlled Eclipse Sky to catch up with Han Ying. "It's been so long, and you're still holding a grudge, Commander Shen."
Han Ying's figure appeared and disappeared as she flew over the ruins. Her air-breaking wings vibrated as she fired thousands of bullets, accurately hitting the large and small insects crawling out of other cracks.
The tearing howl echoed throughout the venue.
Pei Ji chased after Shen Que, admiring Han Ying's beautiful figure, and felt that the figure in front of him overlapped with the figure of Shen Que in battle that he had seen a long time ago.
At that time, the two had not yet married, and Shen Que had not yet been injured.
Like other soldiers, he could only occasionally admire the heroic fighting figure of the Empire's First Commander at the imperial court's exhibition matches.
But now Han Ying is faster than before, attacks more decisively, and her fighting style is more...gorgeous?
Pei Ji suddenly chuckled: "Are you showing off your skills?"
The mental synapse was bitten hard, and Pei Ji could clearly feel the subtle fluctuations in Shen Jue's heart.
Pei Ji was in an exceptionally good mood, wrapping his arms around the other person's mental synapses and rubbing them back and forth.
"My baby is the most handsome and powerful in the entire empire. He has already captivated me. There's no need for him to show off his skills, okay?"
Shen Que rescued Synapse from Pei Ji and bit him again before parting.
"There's an S-class swarm at ten o'clock, ten of them by eye."
A cold but slightly complacent voice came from the microphone, and Han Ying's movements were obviously much cleaner than before.
There is no need for verbal communication, the inner thoughts are clearly conveyed to each other.
