"However, I will be leaving this afternoon. You probably won't see me again for a while."
Ye Jiu tilted her head, about to ask why, but then remembered that he was a military officer, and silently stuffed a mouthful of rice into her mouth, thinking, "What a stupid question."
"You said I can't see you, will this lingering effect subside?"
Ye Jiu shook her head. "I don't know, maybe. It might be because my mental energy touched yours, making you a little dependent on it. You'll probably disappear if you can't see me."
Pei Zhiyu listened attentively, then smiled enigmatically; he didn't believe the problem would subside.
After all, her face is in his dreams every night, and he can only relax a little when he sees her for a few minutes each day.
"If you need any help in the future, feel free to contact me. I should be available anytime." If it were you...
Pei Zhiyu silently recited the second half of the sentence in his heart: It's good to give her some privileges.
Ye Jiu nodded vaguely, "Okay, okay."
Pei Zhiyu picked up his plate and said, "Then I won't bother you any longer. Until we meet again."
Ye Jiu looked up and saw his figure getting further and further away from her. Was he really gone? Ye Jiu scratched her head, feeling a little strange that he was really gone.
However, she had no time to think about Pei Zhiyu right now; what she was most anxious about was Huaijin's birthday gift!
After thinking it over, I decided to make him a good luck charm. He doesn't lack anything, and it's not really appropriate to give him anything that money can buy.
As for mecha-related things, he probably doesn't have any plans to make individual mecha soldiers in the future. He's already given her a model, so it wouldn't be appropriate for her to give him another one.
Finally, she chose this item that would test her needlework skills.
Although this thing sounds useless, it's a matter of belief; if you believe, it exists, if you don't, it doesn't. She just believed it could protect him and keep him safe.
Oh, she wasn't entirely convinced. She planned to put an AI alarm inside the amulet; the AI would automatically send a notification to her personal computer if it detected any trouble.
The AI in the interstellar space is truly intelligent, not stupid. This technology is widely used to ensure the safety of students, and now she is using it on Huaijin as well.
Double peace, yay!
That situation will never happen again.
With only a week left until Huaijin's birthday banquet, her peace charm is 50% complete and she needs to speed things up. Unfortunately, she's too busy to find the time to finish it, and it's not convenient to take it home to sew, otherwise it would lose its surprise if Huaijin found it.
She could only stay up all night with tears in her eyes.
She's leaving school to go home this afternoon, and I hope Huaijin will behave well. Although I think it's unlikely, the housekeeper didn't tell her, so I hope it's just a tiny bit of disobedience.
Ye Jiu put the tray in the recycling area and walked back to the dormitory.
Since it's a done deal that she'll be studying mecha combat, she can start applying for early graduation.
To graduate early from the mecha design major, all you need to do is independently build a mecha of your own design. It sounds difficult, but it's actually not simple at all.
However, it was alright for Ye Jiu, since he had been working alongside his teacher for so long.
Her design drawings were already perfect; now it was time to buy materials and build the mecha.
Ideally, it should be completed before the end of the year, so that she can travel to other planets next semester, go sightseeing, and participate in the legendary interstellar mech competition to broaden her horizons.
Finally, he will enroll in the Federal Military Academy next September, taking a different path.

Huaijin, of course, did not obey.
He did rehabilitation almost day and night until his body could no longer take it and he would not give up until he came out of the rehabilitation room, often soaked in sweat.
The therapist tried to stop him, but Huaijin stopped him with money. Fortunately, medical care is advanced now, and as long as Huaijin gets enough nutrition, he won't have any major problems.
The rehabilitation therapist and Song Baichuan quietly prepared a new nutritional solution for him, and everyone tacitly kept it a secret from Ye Jiu.
The butler robot, in particular, was manually silenced—meaning its power was cut off every time it reported to Ye Jiu.
Butler: Angry but dare not speak out.jpg
For the past two days since Ye Jiu returned, Huai Jin has just been putting on an act, since Ye Jiu has been away from home for much longer.
So, Ye Jiu didn't notice anything for two days, only that Huai Jin was sleeping for longer periods this week.
It seems that rehabilitation is indeed very tiring.
They are pitiful, but they can't drink anything other than the specially made nutrient solution, which makes them even more pitiful.
——
Time slips through our fingers, and in the blink of an eye, it's Huaijin's coming-of-age ceremony.
Ye Jiu had imagined many scenarios, but she never expected that the birthday banquet would be held at Huai Jin's villa.
It felt absurd. It was supposed to be Huai Jin's coming-of-age ceremony, but there were hardly any people in the hall who were about the same age as him. Instead, there were mostly pot-bellied middle-aged businessmen, arm in arm with their wives, chatting and laughing with others.
Although Ye Jiu knew long ago that the main purpose of this coming-of-age ceremony was to find an excuse to gather these people together to discuss business, he still felt a little regretful when he actually saw the scene.
No one cared about Huaijin at this coming-of-age ceremony.
Huaiyou and Yue Wenxin, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, were entertaining guests downstairs, while Ye Jiu and Huaijin were secretly watching the farcical birthday party downstairs from upstairs.
"How ironic, I clearly said I was going to celebrate your birthday."
Huai Jin was mentally prepared for this scene and had not been looking forward to it. His only expectation was Ye Jiu's birthday gift and for Ye Jiu to come home and be with him.
Huai Jin didn't speak, but just lowered his head and played with Ye Jiu's fingers. Any contact with Ye Jiu's skin would excite him, and all his bad emotions would dissipate in the process.
Huaijin comforted Ye Jiu, "It's okay, I still have my sister."
Ye Jiu said wistfully, "You seem so naive. What will you do if I'm not by your side one day?"
A passing butler robot: ? ? Simple? What? Who? I don't think I recognize these two words.
Huai Jin's attention was entirely focused on the second half of her sentence. He gritted his teeth and said firmly, "There won't be any 'what ifs'."
"Of course there will be. No one can guarantee that they will be with another person for their entire life."
"No, I can guarantee it." Huai Jin eagerly spoke to prove himself. He could, he could follow her to the ends of the earth, he could follow her for a lifetime. She was his everything, his everything.
Ye Jiu, of course, didn't believe it. She ruffled his hair and said, "People always grow up. Xiao Jin will have his own future too. You will definitely be a very, very powerful mecha pilot in the future."
"So what?" Without Ye Jiu by his side, he didn't care about that kind of future at all.
Huaijin intertwined her fingers with hers, trying to give herself some confidence through this gesture, "I will stay with my sister, always, forever."
Until his sister abandoned him... his life probably came to an end.
His unexpressed love was hidden beneath the calm surface of the sea.
They're just waiting for the right opportunity, a suitable opportunity, to let it all out.
Or perhaps the child dies in the womb, and these feelings of love are buried with his death.
It was as if it had never existed.
Huaijin's eyes seemed to drown people, but in reality, it was he who was drowning.
